The Cuban Revolution.

ID is not generally known that there We're IN this
city last winter a number Of gentlemen, some
Americans and some Cubaus, whose business here
was 90 mako arrangements with reference 90 the in
aucuration of revolutionary movement in the
Island Of Cuba Among those who interested
lhonsolves IN ID were several eX-army officers and
some members Of Congress. The lrst object Of the
movement WAS 10 obtain assurance that should an
independent government be established in the island
10 would De recognized, or else thst overiures for
annexation 10 the United States would be accepted.
II was also intended 20 accumulate men and arms
from the United States al various points on the
island In readiness for the blow which was 70 DC
struck Tho time for the outbreak was twice fixed,
one date being the 22d Of February, and the other
earlier in winter bat from some cause or other
nothing was done on either occasion. IN regard 10
procuring material aid % does not seem that much
was accomplished bat il Is alleged that tho leaders
81 tho movement were encouraged by these inVes-
LEGATIONS % believe that an independent govern
mcnt would be recognized by the United States, OF
that annexation as IA State could be secured. Ihose
reports ii correct indicate that the origin OF tue
Cuban revolution dates further back than is goaer-
Ally supposed. They also throw additional light
aqau the motives and views with which il was IN
aerakeu Il seems that the troubles in Spain had
nothing 30 do With il except in furnishing an OPP
poriguity which had long been desired, the revolu-
l1ns,s rightly calculating that Spain would be de-
iayd ia sending troops 10 the scene OF disturbance

ers Of the thieves robbers mnrderers and despera-
does, who for many years, dehed law and order,
and threatened the lives and property of honest cit

and that they will commit arson in such ways as
will defy legal detection.
The carrying out in whole, or in part of each OF
any Of these designs, is the only thing that will
again cause us 10 rise in own defence. The fol-
