ma. Bajo la bandera de las reformas,

yeron interminable.

Puerto Rico. Ell partido del rey Fer

partido reformista, en- fin, sigue la
misma marcia de siempre. Green que
Espana no aprende nj escarmienta

Ellos, sin embargo, podran hallar

pero nosotros henos de dar simpre la
VOC de alerta: & nosotros no nos en-
| gaflan: los conocemos q fondo; y tene-
mos adquirido el inquebrantable con-
vencimiento de que cumplimos con
un deber al seguir Ia conducta que
en- la prensa nos hemos trazado.
.Prevaliendose de un generoso y
POGO meditado arranque de los hom-
bres de la revolucion de setiembre,
exigen los regeneradores ell cumpli-
miento de la promesa de asimilacion
que Sc hizo en- Cadiz en- Madrid.
Pero aquella promesa fue formula
da en- Ell concepto de que en- las An
tillas no habia mas que liberales
amantes de la nacionalidad espanola;
mas adn, no habia aquella promesa
leal tenido ell tempo de cruzar Ell At
lantico, cuando en- Lares y en- Yara
Sc habia alzado bandera rebelde y gri-
tado imuera Espana! por los mismos
reformistas. Aquella promesa fus un

que tai promesa arrancaran y los hom-

va no es tempo de callar. Las doncellas
de la princesa, sus antiguas completes,
tratan de salvarse echando sobre ella el
crlmen, la vergdenza y ell castigo: relatan
todas las circunstancias que puedan dar
fuerza sus a6rmaciones, y pronto al CO.
razon y los oidos de Azo, torturados por
estas revelaciones, no les queda va nada
mas que sufrir.

POEN1A DE LORD BYRON,


Es Ia hora en- que el ruisshor, oculto
sntre el follaje, hace OR sus mas dulces
tEinos; es Ia hora en- que los votos de los
amantes, articulados en- voz baia, parecen
mas dulces; Ia hora en- que ell soplo de la
brisa y el cercano murmurio de las aguas
forman delicioso concerto para Ell que
vaga en- la soledad. Las flores estan hd-
medas por el rocfo, las estrellas reunidas
On ell frmamento, ell mar tiene un azul
mas puro, las hojas de los arboles un YER
de mas subido y ell cielo ese cIaro-oscuro,
sombra suave, opaca claridad que sigue
Ia caida de la tarde, cuando Ell crep6sculo
Sc desvanece ante los rayos de la luna.
