THE LATE

Our Democratic c%otemporar' ca seem to
mink that the result Of the recent cleo.
Hons afford an indication that the Repnb-
ban party has received a fatal stroke. In
thc inhamed state Of their auricular or
gauization, they can hear the dcatb'rat
tlo in its throat. Notwithstanding our
sotc has not been so large in Ohio, Hi
nOis, Wisconsin, Virginia aud Massachu'
bette, MS formerly, the decrease is not
to the accession to the opposition
but to the criminal apathy Of Republican
Voters. The introduction Of new politi'
eal organizations have enlist d the Coating
mass, as every novelty has its followers,
|and every humbug its dupes.
Tho Republican platform is impregna'
be, and its principles are urassailable.
GThey are deeply imbedlcd in tho great
haar:, and when the present
maze of complicatiO is understood, the
Republican party purge9 of ITS bad and
interruptions men, will come forth pnrer
and mightier than before.

where there was the shadow of a pretext
for killing defenceless persons. Four
men are reported to have been summsrily
shot Upon the finding of a court martial
at Santiago de Cuba, and their names axe
given elsewhere, though it docs not seem
clear whether thcy we're citizens Of the
United States or Spanish subjects. There
were apparently no proceedings against
the ship in any Admiralty Court; there
was no inquiry and no judgment before
any competent tribunal touching her ma,
tionallty or the character Of her opera
tlons; no opportunity was given for hear
ing or defence but all was done with an
ostentatious disregard of regularity as if
actors would express their contempt 70,
all the restraints that the usage of civil.
ized nations might impose and. indeed,
az if they were less concerned with the
mere slaughter of tho yirtiqs than intent
upon grosSl o~utraging, by the manner of
the slaughter, the Gag that the victims
claimed as their defence. 1t is al act of
which it may safely be said that only
Spaniards among the nominally civilized
nations could possibly be guilty. With
every other people of the wsrld there is
some consideration of right and law and
justice-some Difference to opinion, and
somc respect for usage and humanity.
Only Spaniards are capable of rushing to
the commission of an a%trocity in tn. ap-
prehepsion that delay might deprive them
of a bloodthirsty pleasure. There are
not many occasions in which Spanicrds
can act with promptuess, energy and de.
cision but at least ono case in which they
tan exhibit those qualities is in the taking
of lives that The morrOg worId compel
them to spare.
1t is very possible that the Virginius
VAS engaged in attempting u hostile des-
cent upon Spanish territory, and was en-
deavoriug to land men and munitions for
carrying on war against the Spanish
government. 1t is equally possible that
on this voyage, or on other recent voyage,
she had. as it is said. forfeited her RICH,
to protection as an American ship. Blu;
4 Spanish court martial cannot in any
cont ngcncy gllntever be the judge Of such
facts, or Of any facts with reference to i
ship taken on the high seas; and to exc,
cute men on the Judgment of a court that
has not jurisdiction of the case Is, 81
course, the same as to kin them without
the judgment of any court. For the Span
iah authorities to hang a shadow of JUST.
%ticatlon for acting as they are reported t.
have acted with these men the, shout
have captured them, if not in the very act
with which they Charge the, at least
within the limits of Spanish territory, on
the land or in the n~eighborng waters.
But the ship was captpred far away from
the Cuban coast.
