THE POWER OF THE REBELLION CONFESSED.
The PreRSG of Havana, in recent article
frankly that great dangers are now hanging over
the Island OF Cuba On account of its accustomed bold
Importance is due TO its statements than to
those of any other journal in Cuba ave have never 1t
says made light OF the danger; never have we under
rated the enemy which has so many resources and such
large sympathies among the democratic radicals both
in Europe and America. An immense quantity Of
funds held at the disposition Of enc
niles. Many Spaniards would not believe this
have settled that question. To send
80 many expeditions, to maintain SO many agents In
Cuba in the metropolis and abroad must Of necessity
cost great deal OF money When the nsurrection com
menced the Irsa ont assurances of this fact but
strengthened when we found ont that these same
paying their store bills neither the iron mer
chants nor the grocery keepers and that they were
hypOhecating their city property ana collecting In al
vance price OF their crops The thing quite clear
that these had money which they might use in
spracy against the Government and there were few
who begin to think we did Well, eight months have
rolled by and the great expenditures continue being
made by our enemies much money has been extracted
from tile societies of Europe and likewise from
mercantile associations the latter being interested in de
strOyng our sugarproducing capacity.
