HERALD Men AND HUMAN SALVATION.
A Cuban Journals Despair Over the
Way History is Made.

TIE following is from the D,a,1o's trumpet this
morning, and is the first alusion to Mr.. O'Kellys
arrest published here:-
To THE HERALD :-"Every man Is entitled to the
amour prOpree les chooses and every journal to the
vanity 1t fancies. Just as Louis XIV. thought
himself the State, which, on the other hand.
he represented and directed. the HERALD can
presume itself great power-ap power OF the first
order-and threaten the entire human race, as lit
had at its disposal the armies OF Alexander and the
neets OF POmpey; but oil this avails nothing, that
even the most humble nation should grant 1t
THE RIGHT or SENDING INvIoLABLE EXPLORERS
wherever it judges convenient. The HERALD owes
certain courtesies to the authorities Of Cuba and
to other Spaniards who are not authorities, and
does wrong in Boosting against those whos without
fearing the gns atssus OF its wrath, have given il
many proofs of courteous consideration. The
HERALD had not even the shadow OF right to
pretend to what 1t has realized; but the authors
ties and spanards OF Cuba desired instead OF fear
ing, that outsiders should know the state OF the
rebellion. Fer this reason such explorers have
found great cooperation In one case, and
NO OPPOSITION IN THE OTHER.
II its, inopportune boasts would influence in any
way the direct march OF justice, what we call the
exaggeration OF the HERALD would damage It's last
commissioner. However, this will not happen.
because the first feeling Of Spanish hearts is
htdal0utd and the loyal OF Cuba understand per-
fecty well the Specification and meaning Of worth
less and sounding phrases which break and disap-
pear bubbles. and leave not the slightest sign.
LET THE HERALD EXPECT EVERYTHING
from the generosity and indulgence OF Spaniards,
but renounce forever It's pretensions OF intimi-
dating them"
HOW HISTORY IS MADE
The C0rstdncia has the f0llowng:-
"The T1ldente, OF st. Thomas, referring to letters
from jamaica forged probably after Zambrana's
famous passage. published the narrative Of an i'm
mense battle between insurgents and govern
ment troops, won, as may be supposed, by the FIRST
named. According to our Danish colleague
THE CELEBRATED SECOND AMBASSADOR
OF the HERALD had his horse shot under him and
fell into the power Of the Spaniards. now history
ia written! Meantime the HERALD has published
the truth diluted with great quantity Of lies re-
spectng its famous commissioner In Cuba. The
authorities are
ONLY OCCUPYING THEMSELVES
with o'Kelly, despite the contrary statements OF
the HERALD, and despite the circulation OF false
news by ldooruntes and their friends"

Trying to Make q Case.
HAVANA, April 10, 1879.
The New York correspondents OF the DiarfO Voz
de cuba and Constdncid exceedingly bitter on
the O'Kely question: reproducing parts Of articles
from the HERALD, with the intention OF proving
that the HERALD insults Spain, threatening her
with provoking epithets, calling Spaniards cow
ards and assassns. The Ddarto's correspondent
says
The Society OF the Friends OF Cuba have directed
q memorial TO President Grant imporing his inter-
ference In favor OF O'Kely. The document Is Of
such q nature that 1t eliminates the commissioner
OF the HERALD, demonstrates the soicitude and
anxiety with which the ldb0rdntes await his ar.
rival, and In 1t state clearly, determinately, that
they know beforehand his account Will be favorable
to the Cuban cause, and that. therefore, the Span
iards want to close his mouth-a declaration some

BOLD AND INJUDICIors,
in view OF the circumstances that the impartiaity
and neutrality OF the commissioner are under in
vestigation; because, naturally, 1t must be con-
sidered an aggravatIng circumstance to be the
commissioner OF the HERALD which Is decidedly
the organ OF the llibusters. The publication OF
the memorial clearly shows what hopes the labor
dntes have in the Partially or O'Kelly and his
poorly disguised sympathes in favor Of the revolu-
tonary cause.

STONE,
and wants to have another sensation similar to the
one consequent upon the finding Of the African
explorer. The arrest OF the correspondent,
O'Kelly, at Manzanillo has given IL cause to make
such noise and scandal that any one might say
on the life OF OKelly depended
THE SALVATION or THE HUMAN RACE.
The telegraph between Key West and New York
is at work without rest. The reporters OF the
HERALD have gone from Herod to Plate to md
some one who would say OKely was going to be
shot, but none such were found; and 1t contented
itself with saying that the Spaniards would not
shoot OKey, because they were towards, and all
this with the holy intention OF irritating them.
The Constaacia correspondents remarks do not
merit wiring.
