Special Despatch TO The Evening Telegraph.
BALTIMORE, March 19.-The refugees who ar
rived here yesterday in the steamer Liberty,
leaving Havana on the 18th instant, bring acs
counts OF the revolution there differing mate
rally from most OF the telegraph dispatches
sent off by the authorities. Instead of the Gov
ernment troops gaining every battle, on the
contrary, in nearly all collisions the insurgents
are successful. It is also said every native
Cuban, with scarcely an exception, is deter
mined to get rid of the Spanish yoke. Those
too old to go into battle are giving of their
money literally to support the rebellion. Tue
hatred between the two classes, especially OF the
natives against foreigners, is intense. There
has been no positive prohibition of the natives
leaving the island, bat applications for pass
ports create suspcion and are oten the cause
of arrest and Imprisonment so that but few can
leave.
Doctor Mudd, who arrived in the Liberty, has

Says the New York Commercial ADVERTISER: -
There is heavy brigade of otfice.seekers aud
their friends at Washington. The city is full of
them, and the very air Is heavy with aspiration
ior place. The seectacle is a curious one.
Those who make politics business seek office
as reward for sitting up NIGHTS with the party
through long campaign. Important men in
localities want office tor themselves or their
friends, IN order 10 retain their Importance and
keep the loaves and the fishes for the sustenta.
tion of a select few. Poor men want Office for
the pay 1t brings. Rich men seek 1t for the posi-.
ton and importance it confers. Restless men
want office 10 see what it is like, and easy going
natures want office means of gaining hveli-
hood quietly and without too much thought as
TO the future.
1t is curious that among the seekers for Office
we find so many men to compete for positions
whose rewards would seem to be beneath their
notice. Rich men will take an office whose
compensation is small, and men of undoubted
capacity Will tie up their abilities with the red
tape of a merely routine duty. The hunt f,r
office Is so wild and general that it serves TO
draw the whole community within its influence.
1t is not an office seeker, he has backed B,

Some who fail, despair; bat to thousands the

Washington. Indeed, one need not go out of
town TO see all the phases of ofice'seeking. the
Joy of one, the grief of another the indifference
of thlrd. 1t is the gaming table over again,
with stakes often more precious than mere gold.
Why there should be change in Office with
