based upon tho number of troops originally
sent out from Spain and those organized in
Cuba, without taking into account the deple-
tion of the army by sickness and death, losses
in battle, desertions, returned soldiers, and
other causes. OF the sixty-seven thousand
regulars and militia 1t is fair to conclude there
are not now more than thirty-fve thousand
effective men, if as many. The forty thousand
volunteers might be reduced to twenty-five
thousand. But these do garrison duty only,
and are not very effective any way. In fact
they constitute force on paper only. Ex-
cept the few Spaniards enrolled in this body
the rest cannot be trusted, and the Spanish
authorities are too sagacious to trust them in
the field or out of sight. According to the
AIm0nach dc GOTTA, the entire active army of
Spain last year amounted to only eighty -four
thousand two hundred and ninety men. How
could sixty-seven thousand be spared for
Cuba? How, In the disturbed condition Of
Spain, could the government spare more than
three-fourths of its army for this colony alone
The statement is incredible, and shows
that it is made for the purpose of de-
ceiving the public both on this side Of the
Atlantic and in Spain. We rather think the
figures given might be divided by the figure
three and be nearer the truth. If the number
Of troops originally. sent to Cuba approaches
that stated there must have been fearful
loss of life, and this is bad omen for the con-
tinuance of Spanish rule over the island. In
deed, it furnishes the most powerful argument
for the prospect Of Cuban independence. Ad-
hitting this extravagant statement of Spanish
forces to be true, it shows the inability of
Spain to put down the insurrection. Nearly
eighteen months have elapsed since the war in
Cuba commenced, and yet Spain is further off
than ever from subduing the insurgents. If
sand volunteers, according to this Spanish
statement, cannot put down the insurrection
in eighteen months, how long will it take !?
And where are the additional forces to be
found to fill up the loss by disease, battle and
other causes? What, too, becomes of the
assertion that there is no war in Cuba of any
consequence? With all the power Spain has
been able to use the insurgents, SO far from
being suppressed, have grown stronger, and
the late news of their success proves this.
According to this evidence of the Spaniards
themselves they have very serious war on
hand, yet our Secretary'of State cannot see a
case Of belligerency. Red tape in the State
Department and Spanish falsehoods have
proved stronger than facts or the interests and
sympathies Of the American people.

tifcate Of the Treasurer that ], 597 Of these
bonds have been returned to the State.
The evidence of HIessfs. Hawkins, Tate,
Sloan aud Gniou U.-tajls, among ether mat
tiers, circumstances be- Eira upon - IN IS
tions: How far any of the bonds issued
since May l, 1866. or the proceeds OF such
bonds have been used to forward legisla-
ton for these and like appropriations. :.
For the rest, it will be seen that with two
exceptions, in which persons claimed and
were allowed the privilege of not testifyiDg
upon that point, direct and full details
have been made by every witness supposed
to have any information thereabouts, of
any knowledge in regard to such use Of
the said bonds or their proceeds.
&c will doubtless be borne in mind that
the investigation of the Commission into
these matters was By the Senate expressly
limited to any improper employment of
those Bonds, or any Of their proceeds.
Some evidence of an application Of those
Bonds or their proceeds to private pur-
poses will be found III the dispositions OF
Gen. Littlefeld and Messrs. Jones, Tate
and Lutterloh. Otherwise, such appllca-
tion has been denied.
The Commission have not drawn upon
the funds set apart by the General Assem-
bly, for their expenses.
A certified statement thereof accOmpa
nies this report. It would be found that
including the fees of officers for summon
ing witnesses. and of the Clerk OF Wake
count for transcript, they amount to
$50 Is. This does not include the pay
duo to the Clerk of the Commission, who,
we take occasion to say, has been very la
boriously employe late in the
night. The Commission, in order to COM
ply with the recent instructions of the
Senate for an early report, have been un-
der the necessity of employing a second
Clerk for the last night, and two days of
their session.
