CUBAN MATTERS IN THE CITY.

Speculation ON the Action OF the Span
ish Volunteers-Win They Resist the
Home Government .-Thcir Future
Power and the Contin uance OF Slavery
Dependent on Their Course-The Conn
Ing Mass Mccting-The Freemasons in
Aetion-A Mcm0riel-An Immense Com
course Anticipated.
As 1t is generally admitted that the question OF
peace or war between this nation and Spain hangs
on the course to be pursued by the spanish resi-
dents OF Cuba, represented by the Casino Espaho
relative to the surrender OF the virginius, the
lease OF the survivors among the crew and passen-
gers and indemnifcstl0n to the families OF those
killed, what such will be forms the chief topic
Of conversation among Cuban circles in this city.
The kilograms from Havana and from Washington
are so contradictory that no conclusion can be
arrived at from them ana 50 speculations upon
the probabilities are very rife. Among the especial
friends OF Cuba Libre two opinions, directly oppo-
site, are entertained OIL this subject. One H. that
She volunteers are composed of lot OF
BLATANT CowARDs,
who have found their bombast and braqgadocio
sufficient to ovcrawe the weak and ever-changing
administrations in Madrid and are ready enough
to try their effect upon the United States antci-
pating an equally favorable result; but that they
will readily yield If they once realize that the Re-
public OF the North iS determined to put forth
Its vast strength TO MAINTAIN Its rights and redress
its wrongs. Such base their opinion on the fact
that never even In the darkest days OF the Spanish
cause in Cuba, has 1t been possible to send one OF
them to the field. De Rodas, soon after his arrival
in June 1869, called upon the battaons to furnish
5000 men to proceed to the seat OF war, but not
man volunteered. Though 80 much given to boast
OF their numbers and powers IL is urged that they
have ever been mere holiday soldiers, garrisoning
forts preserving the peace OF cities and assisting
at the customary massacres, whether by the mus
ket or the garr0te.
On the other hand, It Is argued that the Casino
Espano and throughit the volunteers Is controlled
by men who have staked their all upon
The PERPETUITY OF SLAVERY
in the island. and that the power which has grown
up III opposition to the Madrid government has
been systematically consolidated to oppose any
change In the condition OF the blacks; tnat it has
accomplished the original design In being able 70

completely that they would never dare to conspire,
never dare to think themselves In all time the

the same game on the Scotch highlanders Crom-

Saxons, and history is full OF the failures OF
such essays. 1t will be sad disappointment 20

The press in Vienna, which is very
important and influential, is largely
worked, owned, written and influenced
by Jews. In Vienna there are to-day
more Jews than crossed the Jordan with
Joshua, and in the Austrian Empire there
are as many Jews as there were in Judea
at the time of Titus The Jews of Eu-
rope play most important part in music
in money-making and in politics They
have taken possession of much of the
goods in Europe without striking a blow
in battle or sustaining the burdens of
national life. II ever there was a race
specially favored by Providence, it is the
Jewish race, for it is the wealthiest, most
courted and most iDfuetial in Europe.
