SPAIN.-The news from Spain is of u more
pacific character. The information now is that
the Spanish Government will comply with the
demands Of the United States The original
demands made by the President through the
State Department were for the surrender of
States flag; the liberation of the survivors of
the crew and passengers, and the making of
suitable reparation by indemnity to the fami-
lies of those slain. This was the ultimatum Of
the United States, and the limit for its accept
ance fixed at midnight of the 26th, (Wednes-
day last, and in the event of rejection, Min
lister Sickles was directed to close his Legation
at Madrid. 1t may be that war is not ayerted
--as some contingencies may arise TO prevent
the adjustment of the difiiculty-yet the pros
pect is decidedly more promising.

A HoRsE STUNG BY BEEs.-Fatdl Result =
An exciting incident took place at the house
of Mr.. Andrew jackson, worthy German
citizen, who lives near Retreat, Va, one day
last week. 1t appears that the horse had been
turned loose in Mr.. Jackson's yard for the
purpose of grazing. The horse CHANGED to
upset stand of bees, which at once set to
singing the poor animal most furiously. The
sharp sting of the bees soon made the horse
frantic, and seeking protection of his master
he ran into the house among the members of
the family, turned over the cradle in which lay
a young child, the child being knocked nearly
across the room. The horse then knocked
down and stamped TO death little girl some
eight or ten years old and then ran out into
the yard and dropped dead .-Franklin Va.}

THANKSGIVING. " esterday was Thanksgv-

they thought proper. The morning train from
Washington brought large number of per-
sons from the city, who spent the holiday in
the woods in search for game. In Rockville,
il is said, that not boy, dog or gun could be

the boys meet with an accident Thanksgiv-

Cuba-Its Extent and Population.

Cuba is n rich and fertile country. In the
words of Columbus, ''it is the most beautiful
land that ever eyes beheld" Its soil is fruit
full and its harbors many and capacious. Its
sea front is more than fifteen hundred miles,
and the numerous inlets on its coast invite and
facilitate marauding Parties, that were not
slow to imp owe these advantages in the ear
ier years of its settlement by Europeans. II
lies almost within sight Of our shores, being
only distant about eight hours run from Ela.
vana, its principal city, TO Key West, Florida.
According to Pezuela, the historian and sta
tistician Of the colony, the imports amounted
in 1869 to f0rty-three and half million Of
dollars, and the exports to fifty-seven and n
half millions. Before the disturbance which
began the previous year. they had been esti-
mated at about fifty per cent. higher Than that
From 1861 to 1868, the yearly total of exports
and imports was estimated at one hundred and
thirty millions.
The total population of the island is some
what less than million ard a half OF these,
upwards of 700, 600, or rather more than half
are Of pure European stock, of whom one-sixth
are Spaniards The slaves amount in ALL to
370, 900, or less thana fourth of the whole
population. The remainder consists of free
negroes with q small number of Chinese, some
of them Coolies All efforts 10 introduce free
laborers have been resisted by the Spanish
authorities in the island, because the Captain
General receives a bonus for every slave i'm
ported.
