SPANISH NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. OF THE
OARLIST MOVEMENT.

Convicts Sent to Cuba as Regular
Troops.
TO THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD:-
Being In position to know the facts In the pres
ent condition OF affairs In Spain In the contest
now raging between Don Carlos and the govern
ment, would call your attention TO the garbled
kilograms dictated by the Spanish government, for
the exclusive benefit Of the United States, relating
to the universal successes OF the government
troops against the Carlists The facts are that In
no single conict within sixty DAYS have the troops
not been paid, are badly provisloned and
The government has called out national
guard to Nil the ranks OF the sOldiery but with poor
success. The Spanish government wish the United
ing both home disorder and Cuban civil war, fear
ing Ii the weakness or the government was known
take sides with the Cuban revolution. Ask Your
correspondent in Cuba to report on the character
o! the soldiers shipped to Cuba as regular troops.
They are taken from the hulks and prisons OF Spain,
as the government no longer dare order the resu-
lar army to that service as none OF them ever return
except 1t be the officers. who escape the service
under every possible excuse. A SUBSCRIBER.
The Government OF the United States,
and Not the People, Responsiblc for the
Cuba Atrocities.
To THE Enron OF THE HERALD:-
The stand you have taken in regard to the
threatened outrage to your correspondent, Mr..
OKelly. will no doubt be supported by every
patriotic American. for it is insult to the people
at large and must be dealt with accordingly.
Spain seems to have forgotten that 1t is due to
the weak aud vaclllatlng policy Of our government
and not to the American people, that the outrages
| that have been committed upon our citizens IN
waking up to the situation, thanks to the efforts OF
| an independent press, OF which the HERALD
| takes the lead, and II the threat OF General
| a.
| partment as you say, would be but reed in the
| way of the storm of indignation that would sweep
| the United States; and tine people would rise In
their might to annihilate the Power that dared Ia
injure one OF their cOuntrymen, and the Spaniards
| would then ind out that there were other people
than themselves in this world whose rights were
bound TO be respected. r.

Our New School House.

Some twelve or thirteen years ago,
our Board of Education purchased a
very beautiful and eligible School
House site at the south east corner OF
our town, and erected thereon a very
good and comfortable School House.
When the house was completed the
Board secned to lave came to the
conclusion that every thing was done
that was necessary TO render tie
Schoola success. The grounds around
the house have been left in cry near
iy the same condition as nature left
them, and the building now very
much resembles a Temple in a
desert, or a Church in some old
worn put and neglected field. 1t is
true the grounds are surrounded by
an old rickety board fence, but the
appearance of things would, in our
judgment, be considerably increased
if this old fence was scraped away;
it simply mars the beauty that nature
gave. Why have these grounds not
been properly graded and decorated
with the requisite number of shade
and ornamental trees long ago? Il
this had been done when the house
was built and the growth of the trees
properly cared for, our children, in
place of having to play on an arid,
unsightly desert, would now have a
sylvan retreat, q place of beauty, where
the hours of recreation would be a
real Joy to them, instead of an uneasy
and painful conflict in the broiling
sun where there is not sufficient shade
to accommodate a mouse. Besides
this. we maintain that beautiful sur
have mui Ii 10 do with
moulding and tonir9 the mind o.
the young, and particularly so in the
matter of taste and refinement. Can
you produce the mind of an AMELIA
WELBY amid the desoiate and dreary
marshes and slashes Of Russia? Per-
haps YOU could, but this we do know,
it is not done.
Let our School Board look to this
and see that these grounds are
skillfully and tastefully fenced and
graded, and decorated with shade and
ornamental trees, and the place made
4 place of beauty and fit for human
habitation. And if the present Board
do not dc it, turn them out 10 the last
man, and elect a set of living men of
5aste, skill, energy and executive abil-
who viii attend to it, and make
School House and grounds an or
lament to our town as we'll as a heal
ny, beautiful and desirable place for
he education and culture of our
children.

We have been very creditably in

and ncighborlv friendship, permitted
his good sense to be overcome by his

as to exhibit a very bad and inch is

ed. We dislike very much TO alludr
to this matter publicly, bet this good
christian neighbor so falsely misrep-
resented us in stating that we upheld
saloons and opposed religion and
Churches, that we feel it our christian
duty to correct him.
First, we deny emphatically that we

unto others as we would have them
do unto us-to prove all things and to
hold fast only to that which is good.
Who shall be the judge of that which
is good? Ourselves or u good

denounces us for our belief, while we
