after long journey, and was 81 altered with
mud from head to foot lie entered the
meeting without brushing the dirt from his
cloths-indeed, without waiting fer his
breakfast-and a huge pair of rawEide
boots, size about fifteen, covered with a
coating of moistenel dust were painfully
conspicuous. His congregation was two
good-nutured or two respectful TO look at
his appearance, and no remark was made
until he stood up a. small deal table,
which was bare of all covering. to preach
his sermon. The table was without cloth,
and the dirty raw hide boots were singularly
distinct objects When compared with the
nsat surroundings Of the alter. Yet not

gentleman announced bis text.

Tur TWO NAVTES.

In tbe eyent of a war with Spain it is not
ar all certain that even the first advantage
would be with the other side. Admiral Porter
il reported az expressing the contrary opinion,
but it is a well known characteristic OF good
sailors to grumble at the condition OF
their own navy. We can send imme-
diately into Cuban waters an almost
equal force to that which We should find
there and in the course of month or two
We could make much more rapid progress
with our reenforcements than Spain pos
sbly could. Two years ago the Span
ish Navy was in excellent condition, but 1t
has constantly degenerated since that time.
It has fallen greatly out of repair, and the
state of the national finances has been such
that any important addition to the effective
force has been impossible The Intransigente
instruction at Cartagena showed with what
singular inefficiency the vessels of the regular
navy as we'll as those in the hands OF
the insurgents were handled. The pOr-
ton of their naval force which still
remains at home is kept 80 busy in
watching the Federalist revolt in Murcia,
and in guarding the Biscayan shores against
the Csrist supply ships, that the Government
will be hardly able to dispatch any of them
TO Cuba. The best vessels of their iron-clad
navy are in an almost unseaworthy condition.
The Arapiles. for instance, one Of their most
formidable men-of-wsr, is lying in our Brook
lyn docks undergoing thorough system of
repairs.
II we should say that our sailors and officers
were better than those of the Spanish marine,
we should be committing an outrage upon
their sensibilities which might offset all our
claims. But we may safely say that our mon
are not inferior, and our officers have at least
the superiority in education and expert
ence. There iso nothing in a comparison
of the relative strength Of the two
nayies to prompt us to moderation from mo.
tives of prudence. We should go into war with
every advantage, and this consideration alone
should exercise its influence in favor of mode
rate counsels.

4 FINANCIAL INDIGESTION.

The thoughtful observer of recent political
events cannot have failed to remark the I'M
reasonable prejudice with which in certain
quarters the great scheme OF specie re-
sumption of our Great Minister of Finance has
been received. 1t was of course not to be ex-
pected that the plan would meet with univer-
sal APPRECIATION. Nothing does. Doubtless if
Mr. Richardson should resign, somebody who
does not know him would think it unfortu-
nate and say he ought not to have done it..
That, however, is an extreme case In this
matter Of resumption, the scheme which was
the Joint production Of the Great Silent Man
and the Great Minister of Finance, and which
embodied their combined thought, has been
variously criticised. 1t was not understood |;
the popular mind failed to comprehend it
thoroughly. When the President said to a re-
porter, some weeks ago, that with gold at
1903 silver ought to flow into the eur
rency naturally and easily, and that
he had been waiting to see it for several days,
and was astonished that payments in silver
had not already become general. the work.
inps of his great mind were 30 little UNDER
stood that irreverent people, unmoved by the
spectacle of the President Of the United States
|
anxiously for current Of silver coin In the
circulation, smiled and touched their foreheads
as who should say, "He means weil-but-."
Nor is II. to be denied that when the original
great scheme of tho Groat Minister of Finance
to resume some night when everybody was
asleep-Dlaying the benignant Santa Claus to
a whole Continent--was baked and baffled
by the rufianly correspondent who exposed it
there were people right here lin New
York who were incredulous. Indeed there
were those who thrust tongue in cheek when
the Secretary complained that the correspond
emit had upset the arrangement, and more than
intimated that he was an escaped lunatic.
And when the Great Minister of Finance, un-
dismayed by the consciousness that the worlds
large eve was turned on him with leer. in
the beautiful simplicity of his rugged New
England character lifted his two pint bags Of
half dollars to the Treasury counter, and
said quietly but firmly, Gentlemen, we will
"now gradually resume there were those
who did not appreciate the spectacle, persons
of profane and ribald tendencies, who jeered
the whole proceeding. But the Great Minister
kent on in grand and superior sort Of way,
having out five dollars ut q time, regardless
of consequences or expense.
We would not say word in disparagement
of the Great Minister or the Great Scheme.
But it il useless to deny that both have been
criticised. Four thousand dollars in silver
coin have been paid out within fortnight and
still people will not be happy. In some quar-
tiers there Is too much Of II. in others not
enough. Navigation will soon close On the

A LOOK AHEAD.

The meeting at Steinway Hall tonight will
be q great and imposing demonstration. The
officers and speakers are men Of high stand
ing and in great part of excellent character.
There are few public meetings Of which the
motives are 30 elevated and 80 free from any
suspicion of lf-interest. There are, of course,
among the participants some who are working
with an eye single to their own pockets or their
own regulations. But this reprOach cannot
be addressed to the vast majority. They are
moved by two feelings which it is the habit
of our race and time to consider the purest
and most mertoriOus of all impulses, except
those of religion. A determination to vindi-
cate the national honor, and to give assist
ance TO an oppressed community struggling to
be free, is the ruling purpose OF the assembly
which will come together tonight to express
the sentiment of the metropolis aroused by
the butchenes in Santiago de Cuba. We say
the sentiment, instead Of the opinions, for
there will be more Of feeling than Of thought
in the periods Of the orators and In the reso-
Iutions of the committees. The current is too
strong for any one to control. The outrage Is
too fresh and frightful for any calm consid-
Grafton In a public assembly. The speaker
who should quote Laertes tonight and say,
" Each drop of blood that's calm proclaims
"me" false American, will be sure Of en-
thusastic applause.
This indignation is natural and logical
enough. The capture of the YirgiDius was
premedtated insult to the United States. The
massacre of her passengers and crew was one
of those acts of hideous fury and hate which
come from time to time to warn us of the
brute which still exists in human nature, and
which wakes into life nowhere 80 actively az
In civil wars. It,was aimed AZ much at the
United States AZ at tho Cuban patriots. The
reioicings at Havana were expressions of def

An OLD STORY.

thousand times the old story which had
such tragical illustration on Saturday has
been told through the press and whispered in
society, and still the lesson Is not learned. A
Young lady, Just out of the school-toom is
fascinated by the attentions of q man of the
world, and nothing can persuade her that he
is not the nOblest, the bravest, the best of
lovers. What does she know, poor thing, of
the secret lives Of these gallant gentlemen
She reads the legend of excess and evil
courses, written on the bleared eye and the
tremulous lip, and she cannot understand it.
She hears Q whisper perhaps of scandalOus
prOdigality and indulgence, and she stops her
little ears and loves her hero all the
better as the victim Of detraction. She
knows nothing of his previous history,
nothing of his daily. occupations nothing
of his associates. She little imagines that his
soft compliments conceal cruel temper. and
the hand which presses hers so tenderly is a
brutal hand. fit only for deeds of violence
That he is gambler and drunkard, false,
quarrelsome, idle, selfish, and sensual that
be is at war with his parents and tyrant in
the company Of women, she might learn if
she would exercise as much caution In
choosing o husband % In choosing Q bonnet
But young women have dim notion that 1t is
grand aud noble to take 4 lover on trust. To

anoo to us o. much a. OF JOY over this cheap
and blood stained victory. IL is altogether an
outrage which must be atoned with promptness
and completeness. There will be no difference
Of opinion anywhere upon this question.
Whether we wish it or not, the duty OF
vindicating our own dignity and taking by
the throat this ferocious dcspotlsm Oh the re-
ninsulars of Cuba rests upon us, and cannot
in any way be longer avoided. There Is no
necessity of clamoring for vengeance or spur
ring the Administration up 70 Its RESPONSE
bjlities, The punishmentis sure to come, and
the Administration will be ready enough to
run in the path which popular sentiment
points out TO it.
IF the orators of tonight and the audience
who 90 to applaud them would keep In
mind two or three somewhat evident proba-
bilities. it might prevent the doing and saying
of things which perhaps will not be reviewed
with satisfaction a year or two hence. we
take it for granted,
That onr Government has demanded full
renaration for the outrage committed against
our national dignity
2. That Spain cannot exert suhcient au-
thority in the Antilles to satisfy our just de :
mands.
2. That In default of the action OF the Span
ish Government the President under authority
of Congress- will take the necessary measures
to vindcate our own rights in the matter.
4. That as o result of this, Cuba will cease
to be Spanish possession, and will in all
probability become part of the United States.
Other less probable contingencies we do not
choose at present to enlarge upon; such as
the possibility q war With Spain, the d.. aestruc
ton of the Spanish Republic, and the general
massacre of the Peninsular population in Cuba
by the Creoles We prefer to call the atten-
| ton of the friends of Cuba to the four propo-
sitions presented above, which we believe to
be indisputable. In view of this situation OF
| affairs, is there any need of hurry or impa-
tiencei Is this not the end OF the five years
struggle And considering the momentous
nature and consequence of those events which
we see approaching us with such unexpected
| rapidity does it not become us to recognize
and prepare for them, instead of INDUCING
| too much in defamation over wrongs whose
punishment is now assured, and in passionate
| appeals for a consummation which is already
| at our doors 7
