RETALIATION IN CUBA-A DESPERATE
REsoLyE.-A letter from Havana (Octo-
ber 30) says:
The Cuban patriots, having bided their
time during all the months OF continued
rain and well-nigh impossible roads, arc
about to strike the first telling, crush
ing and overwhelming blow Of this war.
President Cespcdes has issued procla-
nation dccrccing the destruction ofevery
stalk of sugar-cane on the island. L: is
rapidly ripening now. The orders for
burning it as fast as it will ignite, Of
trampllng upon it, of running the crop
have been made. The machinery of the
suear-mills must either be disabled beyond
easy repair or entirely destroyed. The
tens Of thousands of liberated slaves are
already at the intiatory work. With the
macheta and torch, you can imagine
thousands of half.nudc dusky forms glid-
ing among the canc-fclds, and with their
burning pine-knots fitting around the
surar-milis and slave huts of the planta-
tions. They will make merry of the work
of ruin, and do it most thoroughly.
Full three-fourths of the sugar crop
and two.thirds or one-half of the tobacco
crop will be destroyed. The Cuban Gov
crnment promises reimbursement to loyal
Cubans at the end of the war.
This terrible weapon of warfare will
stagger the grasping, ilibcral Spaniard.
By it the revenue Of Cuba will be so be-
Titled as not 10 pay the expenses of the
horde of salaried collectors sent here to
grow rich off the island, and finding no
returns, and another year of fruitlcss war,
with it's burdenihg and constantly increas.

Let the torch-famc and these sugar fields
of Cuba become the funeral pyre OF Span
sh ruo in America. Spain we'll deserves

AN INFANT BURNED TO DEATH BY ITS
CoLoRED NuRsE.-A lady from Bedford
County gives US the subjoined particulars
of one of tho most atrocious and horrible
crimes we have ever been called upon to re:
cord. Itappcars that Mr. Henry Creasey
living in the meadows Of Goose creek, id
Bedford County, some short time sihcs
had the misfortune to lose his wife, who
died leaving an infant child. The infant
was placed under the care of MIR. John
Morgan, it's grandfather, and was nursed
by a colorcd girl aged about fifteen years.
Two or three days since Mrs: Morgan had
occasion to scold this girl for some dclin-
quencv, at which she showed marked
signs OF anger and resentment. Tie next
day Mrs. Morgan visited ncighbor's
holsc, o short distance off, leaving the
child with the nurse. During her absence
the ficndsh and brutal nurse, TO crafty
her anger against Mrs. Morgan, delibo
rately threw the child into the fire; and let
it remain there until both of its legs were
burned off above the ankle, causing IFS
death. When Mrs. Morgan returned i'll II
few hours, she was mortified to see the in:
nocent little babe burned almost to crisp;
its distorted features indicating. tic terri
BILE agonles it had endured: The nurse,
who still remained at the house, was ut
once taxed with the decd, but denied it
bitterly, stating that the child's legs had
been eaten off by dog; while she left on'
IL for few moments. This was wholly
disprovcd by the plain marks Of the frei
and the brute being Threatened with Sc.
we're punishments, finally confessed that
she committed the horrible deed in the
manner above stated, and assigned Ms her
reason for it her dissatisfaction with Mrs:
Morgan. She was then conveyed to Lib
erty and committed TO Jail for trial.

Modern .Radicalism,

Every page of the worlds history
abounds in bloody records of violencS
and crime. perpetrated not in behalf of
the liberties of the human race. but for
the undeserved elevation of ambitious as:
political factions If we look to imperial
Rome, the ancient mistress Of the worlds
we find that civil connections, ambitionsj
rivalry, petty jealousics, and general cor;
ruption, produced the rivers Of blood
which deluged the land, called into being
the character of Nero and Caligula, SUBJ
verted the government and destroyed ths
liberties of the people. If We turn to
England-"whose resentful roses would
not bloom together" discover in tho
bloody brols of York and Lancaster
striking and melancholy example of the
folly and madness of party malignity:
The horrid atrocities perpetrated in tho
name of liberty by Robespierre and his
bloody coadjutors during the reign of ter
ror naugurated by the Jacobin party in
France, may serve to warn tlie American
people of the dangerous lengths to which
deIuded and infuriated men may be driven
by the malgn influence of faction, unre'
lioved by the checks of personal honor
and patriotism. No more striking illus
tration of the horrors of political dema-
goguery combined with personal diabo-
ism need be adduced in support of our
position than the brief but bloody career
of Richard the Third, who committed d
thousand damning crimes and waded
through the blood of myriads of slaugh:
tered victims, to obtain the crown SO is:
ANONYMOUSLY lost on Bcstworth field:
In our own country, modern Radicalisni
has shown itself possessed of all the base;
malignant and revolutionary elements
which have goaded the tyrants and ston:
sters of the old world to the perpetration
Of the blackest deeds of violence and op:
preston. Its "principles' will produce
Ncros, Gloucestcrs, Robespicrres, Buffers
and Browulows in any country; and its
atrocities have not cqualled those with
which other governments have been curs'
ed, it is owing to the superior virtue and
patriotism of the people, and not any lack
of fendish mallgnity on the part of the
usurping rulers.
Tho injury which civil government has
sustained in this country from the insans
rule of corrupt and incompetent dema'
gogues can be repaired only by return
to the principles which animated our
fathers in the establishment of the Re:
public, and this can be accomplished only
by hurting the Radical party from the
high places they disgrace, and placing ths
reins of government in the hands of hon:
est, competent and patriotic representa-.
