The Purchase of Cuba in Europe.

The European newspapers seem
to regard the purchase Of Cuba by
the United States as the natural and
almost inevitable solution of the Gu
ban question. They, indeed, speak
Iof the transaction as already accom-
plished, and pretend to name the ex.
act sum paid, with all the conditions.
1t IL regarded as the natural thing
under the circumstances, and papers
like the London Times labor to con-
vince Spanish rulers that Spain
would have the best Of the bargain.
The only chances Of improvement in
the country lie, it is argued, in the
power it may have of directing all its
energies to domestic organization
and reform, undisturbed by foreign
or colonial complications. All her
exertions cannot permanently sub
due the rebellious spirit of Cubs, and
millions Of her scanty dollars have
already been wasted in vain. "Wers
the mother country" says the Times,
"to be quit Of the colony without
the least compensation, To DsHnas for
the happy riddance might well be
sung in every church throughout the
peninsula. But il q large sum-say
only ELS, 100000 or e20, ,000, ,000-is
to be got into the bargain ; il Cuba,
which is so much worse than useless,

the same tone, and Europe seems tol

ought to deem themselves fortunate
