TIE REGULATION IN CuRA.

For three years a large portion of the peO-
pie of Cuba have been in state of open OPP
position to the Spanish authorities. On the
10th of October, 1868, the revolution broke
ont at Yara, since which time, battles and
skirmisheS have taken place, attacks been
made and repulsed on both sides, fair pOr-
tons Of the island devastated, men and wo-
men sacrificed, and property destroyed to an
almost incalculable amount More than
dozen times The end of the revolution has
been announced. But il came not. The
power of the government is still
resisted, and where there az
no Spanish soldiers, there is no obedi
ence to Spanish laws, no respect for Spanish
officials. The general opinion is, Tat Cul a
can never be subdued by mere force. This
is the position assumed by Dulce, De Rodas,
Pelaez. Tetouro, and Modet--all Spaniarlis,
but well acquainted with the Island, and
the temper and determination of the people.
They now advise moderation on the part
of The government. They favor extending
to Cubans all the rights and priv
ileges enjoyed by Spaniards. In the
meantime, there is a change going on
among the people in Cuba. Even some of
the volunteers are becoming more moderate
in their views as TO the duty Of the home
government. They see that if this struggle
continues, the material prosperity of Cuba
will be injured TO an irreparable extent.
This is the commencement of movement
which must produce important results in
Cuba. The elevation Of foreign Prince
TO the throne of Spain has also alienated
the affections of thousands of people in
Cuba from the home government and the
party ruling Spain at this time. All these
causes combined are calculated to aid the
party of freedom in Cuba, and give fresh
| impetus to their cause.

JOHN 81. KEYsER, the Radical ring plumb
er, denies the report made on Saturday, TO
the effect that be had restored to the city Of
New York any portion of his ill-gotten
gains. he audaciously sets forth that the
city is still indebted to him in the sum of
100000. He asserts that he has thus far
received only little more than million of
dollars for his apocryphal plumbing. He is
thoroughly and intensely loyal, and favors
the denomination of President Grant.

OUR COMMISSIONERS OUTwITTED

rGen. Butler delivered a lecture in Phila-
phia on the night Of the 10th inst. on the
" treaty Of Washington in which he con-
feSsed that the American Commissioners
were completely outwitted by the more willy
and experienced British diplomats. In his
opinion every man in this country who had
anything to do with the treaty, whether
President, Commissioner, or Senator, will
be heartily ashamed Of his share in the bust
nea beforeTa year is over. When the
Geneva and Washington Boards of
Arbitration have finished tier work,
it will be found that, instead
of having large amount comming TO the
people of this country for the damages ly
the Alabama and other Confederate crIns-
ers, this government viii be brought in debt
in good round sum Of British claimants
for confScated cotton, captured blockade
runners, and a thousand other war dam
ages. Butler believes that ship-owners in
this country who were damaged by the
Confederate vessels, will have TO whistle
for their money unless Congress makes a
direct appropriation from the treasury to
pay them. f 81.

ball, and one of the speakers, at the recent

the Queen was insanei and demanded a
Regency, to be intrusted to the Judges Of
Law and Equity, until Republic was es-

ANOTHER CHAPTER.

Much has been written and published
showing up the vast amount of Radical
thievery in the Southern States. And none
Of the statements have been denied, because
they cannot be disproven. The facts are too
strong even for Radicals TO deny.
Here are few additional facts relating to
Radical extravaganza and corruption in Mis-
sissippi. The Brandon (Miss.) Republican
gives the following figures, showing the
taxes and the cost Of the State Government
under the white people, in olden times, as
compared with the present taxes and cost
of the government under the negroes:
Tine expenses OF the Legislature for the
Expenses Of the legislature ( Radical

The Legislature costs five dollars, where
ii used to cost one. And this comparison
holds good in every department Of the State
government. In 1861 the State tax in Mis-
sissippi was $4,000. in 1871, under Radi
cal rule, it is 81, sOO, 900, the taxable proper
. ty now being less than one-third what /
= was In 1851.
such facts afford an Interesting c0niOen

Gals cry ''stop thief!'
