We have received a copy OF q manifesto signed by
Donate del Marmol and Felix Figueredo general IN
the insurgent army OF Cuba, addressed to "Ihe
Cilizeh President of the Central Republican Junta Of
Cuba and Porto Rico;' but who that gentleman is
does not appear. The following extracts contain
the chief points Of the manifesto, which is dated
CAMP SAN RAMON,
DISTRICT OF SANTIAGO DE CUBA.
March -. 1869.
The Spanish government holds to-day no more
ground than that tr0dden by its s0diery and this
limited TO the principal towns where they are now,
as it were, imprisoned IN their own houses. But ~
they neither possess the gift of persuasion have
the power TO command by force they have converted
those places into dens OF tigers disguised under the
shape Ol man; from tnere Jney come lCrtl, when
they are sure of not being attacked, to return with
innocent victims and boast OF imaginary trumphs.
Yet this state Of things continues unchanged. ow-
ing to the unfortunate circumstance that the Cuban
army is unprovided with the and necessary
pementS Of war to attack the enemy within their
str0ngh0lds, ana so long as this necessity lasts the
Spanish soldiers, among whom the volunteers from
the Peninsula are distinguished for their brutal fc-
rocity, will continue with impunty to augment their
list of horrible assassnations, the more keeniy felt
because the conduct thus far observed by the epuD
licans of Cuba Is worthy OF praise since they have
for their Spanish prisoners every regard that mis-
fortune is entitled TO- and respect the opinion OF
those who refuse to enlist under their banner.
In view of this critical situation and OF the very
just reasons which uphold the right OF Cubans to
proclaim their independence ana TO resort to arms
IL is time that some powerful and magnanlm0us
nation should interpOse its influence in order that
the laws OF civilized warfare and the precepts or
humanity be substituted for those acts OF van
dasm which are disgrace to those who commit
them.
The undersigned, ther efore, address the worthy
President OF the Junta Central republican, Cub;l
Puerto Rico in Order that, straining his parlosn.
he may not rest until he obtains that the
government of the United States recognizes
the independence of the provisional Revolutionary
government Of Cuba, and declares beligereLt rights
for its lberating army. Likewise that the great
American republic, in virtue OF that declaration,
intervenes with Spain that she may be induced 10
change the system OF warfare adopted by her until
now, to admit the exchange OF prisoners and to
respect peaceful Cubans who take no part IN the
struggle.
