THE PUBLIC MIND ON THE CRISIS.

People Becoming Distrustful OF the
Policy of the Government-The Veter-
ans OF 1s12-"Life in the Old Dogs
Yet''-Anairs Among the Cubans.
The war sentiment among the people is less
demonstrative than 1t was a few days ago in this
city; but II exists the less universaly-it is
only exhausted in discussion, and disgusted
through the evidences which have evinced them
selves that the government is paving the way for
a sort OF milk -and.water back down; for in that
light alone will any lengthy arbitration between
the American and Spanish governments be con-
sidered. Every one who has had opinion to
express on the outrage itself has expressed 1t
long since and repeated it 500 times and now they
criticise the probable course OF the government.

ment which so powerfully agitates the public mind
