failed. A year ago, by fresh reinforcements
received from the Peninsula, aud by the mo-
bilization of some thirty thousand volunteers,
she was enabled to employ in active service
in the field not less than forty-tive thousand
men against the patriot forces, which at that
date had increased to some nine thousand
armed men. She again sgnally failed. To-
day. including the five Thousand men-mostly
Jail. birds and raw recruits-with whom she
has of late reinforced her exhausted army,
she cannot count fifteen thousand regulars
in Cuba, while the patriots possess at the pre-
sent moment an army of at least thirteen
thousand well armed men, SO Injured to hard
ship, fatigue, and fighting as TO be more than
a match, in their own country, for thrice the
number of their enemies.
Again, it is we'll known that Spain has
offered autonomy To the Oubans, although
the 7TjbURe-possbly for the support of its
erroneous neutrality-suspicious. to ign0 0re the
fact. Now, after having strained every
nerve and sacrificed every feeling of humanity
In the relentless prosecution of a war which
she and her satellites in Cuba have waged
confessedly for the determination of the
Cuban race, she would hardly have offered
them autonomy if in her judgment the in
surrection had shown ''its inability to achieve
the independence of the island
IT, in 177S, journalist speaking of our
war of independence had INDUCED in a
strain of prophecy similar to that of the
Tribune, he would have been more justified
than the Tribune is, both by antecedents and
by the then relative strength and positions of
the American and British forces. And if we
recall the duration of the revolutionary
wars by which the liberating armies of all
the republics of Central and South America
achieved their independence, that of Cuba
has exceeded them all in the amount of ter
ritory occupied, in the losses inflicted on the
enemy, and in the generally satisfactory re-
suits obtained within comparatively short
period of time.

PARTISAN NEW YORK.

From the n. Y. Tribune.
There are always compensations. The
world has lost Paris, but fashionable New
York asserts itself as quite ready to take the
vacant place The king is dead it is not
worth while to say that, take him for all in
all, we shall not look upon his like again;
let us make haste to shout "Yive le Roi,"
and not inquire too closely into either birth
or breeding of the bastard claimant. 1t was
only the other day that the world was sur
prised by discovering this blood relationship,
which it now appears has long existed be-
tween the ton of Fifth avenue and moribund
Paris. When the French Fair was opened,
all Japonicadom rushed in vertigo of en-
thusiasm to its support; it turned it's back
upon private views and public concerts;
upon art, music, and pleasure; put
on the weeds of grief and stretched out its
arms to suffering France, refusing to be COM
fOrted. Such devotion and sorrow for the
far-oh dead and dying touched and surprised
everybody; it was clear, in spite of the old
pre- udice to the contrary, that fashionable
people had hearts to feel and brains that
could understand. But some kind souls to
whom a suffering fellow creature, whether
French or German, was only a brother who
needed help, had started fair for the relief
of the Prussian wounded. 70 their astonish-
ment fashionable New York coldly ignored
y
1t had nothing in common with plebeian
death or pain; its tears and its dollars, il
seems, flow only in remembrance of past
glimpses of the Tuileries of dear departed
Worth.
81 know nothing of the war, said an ex
grocer; I'VE belong to the class who do not
vote. Republics are plebeian." This is the
class who mourn for Paris, and assume tc
represent her. Success to their endeavor
But there are few of us who will believe the
lion a real lion. We all know too we'll the
features of Snug the Joiner.
81 care nothing about this war, said tn,
wife of an ex-grocer, ''since that dreadful
mistake of declaring a republic. Before tha
my sympathies were all with the French; bu
how could they be idiotic enough to try s.
plsbian a thing as a republic? If they haC
our experience they would have have know
better This is the class who mourn TO
Paris aud assume to represent her.

to uphold the public law Of Europe In the
United States there are many who would
shrink from qusrelling with England sim
ply to hurt her, because she was involved in
a contest where the right was indisputably
on her side. In Ireland there are Irishmen,
let us hope, who have been won over by the
liberal and just policy of England in the last
two sessions. Even Russia may hesitate to
stake her fortune on the practical assertion
of the great doctrine that henceforth the
most solemn engagements of nations are to
be set aside at the caprice of any party to a
treaty. Justice and common sense may still
triumph although what we fear is that in a
moment of passion those who love neither
Justice nor common sense may get the upper
hand

PORTER UPON PORTER.

FROM The N. 4. HOTt0-
We really do not know in what words to
describe the extraordinary communication
from Admiral Porter to the President To
say that the Admiral has succeeded in per-
forming the apparently impossible feat of
kicking himself down stairs is to put the
feat in the most kindly and considerate
terms at all compatible with truth. He
states that he considers as fabrication"
letter which he admits himself to have writ
ten; explains how he was led, by q storm at
sea, fight at Fort Fisher, and the general
excitement of "a nation which dreaded
defeat that might prolong a contest that was
already sapping It's vitals to utter sentl-
ments which we're ''at variance with all he
had uniformly expressed towards General
Grant, and does not hesitate to disapprove
the sentiments of which he supposes he must
bear the odium." In other words, he appeals
from Porter fighting before Fort Fisher for
permanent position to Porter enjoying that
position at Washington and fondly believing
itspermanent.
Whether President Grant who has solemnly
| announced himself to have lost his faith in
human nature" since he read the letter which
has provoked this unparalleled Palinode, will
regain that invaluable possession upon Pc
rusipg it, we cannot pretend to guess. We
| incline, however, with the languid and philo-
sophical MIR. Toots, in whose spirit Admiral
| Porter sits in judgment upon himself, his
correspondence, his sentiments, and his ties,
! to believe that, after all, it ''don't much
signify" Before this publication there were
not few people in the United States who
impiously thought rather small beer of Ad-
miral Porter. Now that Admiral Porter ad-
vertises himself as being of the same mind,
we may look for hsppy unanimity upon at
least one great question of the day.
