The persistence Of the Cuban struggle
for freedom from Spanish domination Ger.
tainly commands our sympathies. They
have fought long and brayely for the
achievement Of tina, end; but the end, il
seems, is not yet. They have, us a eotem'
porary remarks, deaed the power Of Spain
duringtw long and bloody years. Dur
ing thattine there has been revolution
in Spain which drov@ Queen Isabella from
the throne. Just now there 's IN aitempt
TO place an italian pnnce on the throne,
which has rep..ined vacant since the flight
Of the unsurtunate Isabella, and from the
indieations this effort on the part of Prin
sd his abettors is likely to produce a
bloody revolution in that unhappy country.
Spain, in her present condition, cannot
possibly spare any more troops to subduc
the insurgents in Cuba, and II may be that
the time for the liberation Of the Queen Of
the Antilles has come.
