tbe republic spends all its revenue. How much
more, pray?
In his report OF January. 81, 1868, Minister
Romero stated that the necessities had passed
over which caused the transfer or sale Of
nationalizod property at low rates in order to
idisarm ali mcompromising enemy-meaning,
undoubtedly, the C:aiarch-that, with good ad-
lninistration, it might be made in the future to
peoduce abundant resources, or serve, at any
rate, to pay off goodly SUM of the public
debt. He now tells us that 1t will not yield
over one-balf Of the amount-six hundred
thousand dollars--set down to that item by
Congress in the budget for the current year.
We must, however, give the Mexican republic
sAhe credit of having increased its receipts over
those of the Intervention period. During the
Ave years and half of the Intervention the
average receipts, apart from loans, were but
little over thirteen million dollars annually.

The REVOLUTION IN CUBA.--The news
fiom the island Of Cuba, published
In to-day's HERALD, shows that the "Pearl Of
the Antilles Is violently shaken by insurrec-
tionary parties and may suddenly be plucked
from the crown Of Spain. The government Of
She island, it appears, has been hiding the full
facts from the public. Incendiary documents
were circulated even in Havana to stir up the
slaves, and huge scare was the result. A
revolutionary committee issued manifesto re-
citing the grievances Of the island under
Spanish rule and the enormous contributions
II has had to make TO the national treasury.
For 1868 the latter amount to thirty-three mil
lions Of dollars This revolutionary committee
demand popular suffrage, the right to vote
their own taxes, dissolution Of the army, q
militia system, liberty Of the press, Of speech,
OF education, &c., and the abolition Of slavery.
They claim that the insurrection in the east is
making headway and that the government ac-
counts are false. There Is great distrust In
financial circles, and the whole affair is as
thoroughly lnuddled as Mexican pronuncia-
micnf0.

Noverdy Johnson. Mission and It's Rssal..

fscverdy Johnson's Mission and Its Resalt.
Reverdy Johnson's visit to England as
United States Minister will prove valuable in
one sense. 1t has already drawn expression
lof opinion and sentiment from the whole coun-
try, and this expression can hardly fail to be
Instructive to the men at the head of the Bri-
nish government. This spontaneous expression
Indicates better than could all the dispatches
IN the world the attitude that the people wish
representative of American interests in
England to observe toward the government
that puts us off without reparation for injuries
done, and there could have been contrived no
more effective or satisfactory way of letting
England know the ultimate conviction Of the
whole American people in regard to the Ala
bama claims.
There has been notion in England-par-
ticularly in government circles-that outside
the victims to the depredations Of the Alabama
The people here were Indifferent to this
whole subject, and cared very little for any
principle involved in the career of the cele-
brated English pirate. II was to no purpose,
apparently, that the case was urged from the
State Department through Mr.. Adams for the
Idea we hint at had taken tolerably firm posses
sion of official minds, and her Majestys Minis
ters, in spirit of superiority peculiarly Eng
lish, chose to look over the heads of those who
spoke officially for us and to act on their own
conceptions Of the state of feeling here. It
was in vain, therefore, that our secretaries
spoke very firmly, and in vain that others in
formed Of American opinion declared that
both Mr.. Adams and Mr. Seward were rather
behind than before the public sentiment. The
prepossession that these gentlemen only pur-
sued the point for the sake Of political capital,
to be secured when they should announce q
triumph involving the withdrawal of the Bri-
tish Ministry from point definitely taken,
stood in the way Of adjustment, and none saw
how to remove it.
Finally, this is likely to be removed in a
most unforeseen way. Our Minister in Eng
land proves to be just such man as the Eng
lish officials are charmed to receive. He does
not bother them much with the Alabama
claims, and this at once justifes their notion
that the constant urging Of those claims was
only kink Of Mr.. Stewards, not an inspiration
from the people. Besides this the new Minis
ter makes himself agreeable and acts gene
rally In way likely to give the English people
the impression that between their government
and ours there is the best possible understand
ing. AS soon as all this becomes known in the
United States it IL denounced from one end Of
che country to che other, and the whole press,
without regard to party, repudiate the conduct
Of q representative who ignores the Alabama
question and hobnobs with men who deny our
tights. BY this time her Majesty's Ministers
probably know that the Alabama question is
one that is pressed by the people.
