PARIS Aug 23-La France says, however

is no other plan possible. 1t is the only way
for Spain to save some fragments of the wreck.
The value and duration of Cuban independence
under the protection of America is another

THE HARVARD BOAT CLUB.
The Harvard and Oxford crews were out on
the Thames to-day. The banks of the river
were crowded with spectators on account of
the regatta, and the American and English
crews were heartily cheered. Mr. Simmons, of
the Harvard four, has completely recovered
from his recent indisposition. The Harvard
men desire that a contradiction be made of the
rumors that they have adopted the English
style of rowing. They maintain that the match

made for them, and are satisfied with the re-
suits of their practice on the Thames. The
Harvards have not yet decided what boat they
shall take for the race Their coxswain will be
lighter in weight than the Oxfords. The Amer

WASHINGTON, Aug 23-Advices from Cuba
to the 18th have been received by Cuban sym
pathizers here. They give an account of
fight between portion of Gen. Jordans com
mand and the troops of Valmazeda, near Puer-
to Padre. The Cubans, numbering less than
GOO, were encamped near Puerto Padres, and
were attacked by a force of Spanish regulars
and volunteers, over 1000 strong. In the first
attack the Cubans were compelled to fall back.
They however IA lied, and securing more de-
feasible position repulsed the Spaniards in
their second attack. The loss of the Cubans
in the contest was 150 in killed, wounded and
missing, while that of the Spaniards is repre-
scented as double that number. Col. Figuerro
commanded the Cubans, and the fight is re-
port to have been of most desperate charac-
ter, the Cubans fighting with an earnestness
that was irresistible.
