romote that we need to express very much
wonder at the imposing display in the bulletins
of other peoples wars. We should quite nat
urally have casual rifle shots reported as heavy
bombardments; little gatherings of half-armed
guerrillas masquerading in the newspapers as
heavy columns of insurgents; marches from
camp when the forage was exhausted to
another that offered better supply appearing
as strategic movements of the grayest and
most mysterious import; while each lit
tie affray that actually occurred might
very well be expected to assume the
proportions Of terrific contest, in which the side
that told the story gained a brilliant victory,
with loss of none killed and two or three
disabled, though the field was strown with the
corpses Of the enemy, and no hospitals could
be found to accommodate their wounded. Be-
fore our armies were consolidated and our raw
troops taught war, we went through all this
ourselves we might now be able, without any
great stretch Of the imagination, to conceive
how at least similar experience might befal
the Cubans. ta ..,
We have been treated Of late to great
many sneers at the Cuban insurrection. That
the ready organs of the Slave Power, while 1t
lasted and of the bogus Democracy which now
inherits its vices without its virtues should
make haste to oppose any struggle for liberty
anywhere was to be expected. But that jour
nails which sympathized with the effort OF
Spain to secure popular government for her
self should sympathize, also, with her effort to
deny it to her richest and most important posses
sion, is inexplicablo. When these seek, there
FORE to make light of the struggle in progress
on our neighboring island, we are forced to
believe that they cannot have sufficiently con-
sdered the conditions under which it is made.
We have had no reason to expect great battles
thus far, and there certainly have been none'
We have had no reason to expect even fully
organized insurrectionary army, and there IS
none no reason to look for the capture OF
important towns, or for any effort save to
nurse the flame Of hostility to the Spaniard,
and prolong the revolt into the unhealthy
Summer months. 1t is too soon yet to pro-
nounce the insurrection success; but IL is
not too soon to say that these aims have been
attained, and that, with them attained, the pros
pcct for Cuban independence was never brighter
than now.

The unseemly squabble between the Union
Pacific and Central Pacific Railroad Companies
seems in fair way of settlement by the adOp-
ton of a Joint resolution in the Senate last
evening. which is understood to be satisfactory
to both Companies. 1t provides for the cleo
ton of a Board of Directors for the Union
Pacific; also, that the general Office of the
Company may be established at such point as
the Directors may determines that Ogden shall
be the point of junction between the two
roads and that the Union Pacific Com
pany shall, at the expense OF the
Central Company, complete the road to
Promontory Summit, but own it only to Og-
den. Provision is also made for the proper
examination of the road by Commissioners,
and the Withholding of a sufficient amount of
the United States bonds till after such exam
ination and report, to insure frst-class road
in every respect. The Attorney General is also
directed to institute proceedings against the
Companies, or either of them, if, after exam
nation, he shall be of opinion that they have
forfeited their franchises. Much precious time
was wasted in the consideration of the subject
by Characteristic barangue from the garru-
lous Garret Davis 1t is to be hoped that the
great enterprise will now be pushed to rapid
