AN evening contemporary has the following:
We are still of the opinion that the bloodless
revoluri0n in Spain has q higher claim to our
respect and support than the precipitate and
neadstrong violence of the Cubans. All that
the Cubans seek to accomplish might have
been brought about by peaceable agitation.
And it excuses itself by publishing bogus
manifesto from Cespedes, the accomplished
and generous Cuban who leads the insurrec-
tion, that is so foreign and bitter in spirit 20

The Bangor Whig says the jam of ice in the
Keuduskeag Stream started Friday morning
and went down below the lower bridge, where
it lodged in such mass that for time there
seemed danger of an embargo and anhood
above. In few minutes the water rose two
or three feet but the broken lee gave way sufa-
ciently to let the water escape, and Friday
night the ice lay in mass above the railroad
bridge. The ice in the river still sticks.
We learn from the Whig that the gross re-
eeipts of the Fair held IN Bangor for the bene-
AZ of the Orphans Home in THAT city, will ex-
| ceed six thousand dollars.

Mexican OId-News.

The same story comes from Mexico by
every steamer-the story OF robbcries on the
highways, instructions In the distant cities,
folly and crime in Congress, imbccility and
fraud In the Government, plotting and coun.
terplottlngi attempts to establish order abor-
tive, anarchy the rule, ''crime everywhere
alert, and Justice and law dormant"
II Is so old story that we have conncd it
by rote 1t falls on the ear like an oft told
tall, hardly arousing attention; we have come
to consider miSrule as the normal political
condition OF Mexico, and chaos Its destiny.
Probabl y the best thing that ever happened
to Mexico was the planting Of the Stars and
Stripes on the cathedral of its capital twenty
years and more ago the best thing that
could happen in the future to Mexico, would
be the planting there Of that flag again.
Footpads and assassns take possession of
the Travelled routes, while bandits and rebels
make descents on cities as large as Pucbla.
Lawlessness reigns eyerywhere-and that Is
not the worst, since the laws themselves are
often provocative Of crime, while Mexican
magistrates are bought as shamelessly as
we had almost said as In New York. End
less wrangles perplex the conduct of affairs;
Congress is usually perfect picture of i'm
becllity some of the ministers of Juarez
are charged with fraud; aud In social affairs,
audacity and energy arc on the side of
crime, timidity and helplessness on the side
Of justice.
We hardly believe this to be an exaggerated
sketch Of country which contains eight
millions Of people, and natural advantages
Of soil, climate, mineral wealth, agrlcultu.
raj productlveness, commercial position and
the like, enough to make 1t almost the gar
den OF the world. As lis, all goes to waste,
and Mexico Is Of no good to herself or any.
