From Cuba.

KEY WEST, FLA, March pa dispatch
received by boat from Havana says it is re-
ported here that the Spaniards lost very heav-
ly IN the battle at Guasimo Clara, pear Puerto
Principe. The Cubans remained in possession
of the field at night aud the killed and wound
ed fell into their hands
Ramon De Armas, prominent Cuban law
yer, who has resided somc time in Mexico, re-
turned home on the last steamer from Vera
Cruz. Immediately on landing he was arrest
ed and is now cou6ucd in Fort Cabanas.
HAVANA March 26--The banks refuse to
discount auy kind of commercial paper, think
ing that the refusal will make money tight and
break down the high rate of exchange. The
effect produced shows that the action Of the
banks does not amount to anything, as there Is
too uuch currency atloat, aud all shipments OF
sugar and molasscs can be drawn against the
moment the planter sells his produce to the
merchants
The financial crisis continues on its onward
march every hour, increasing the premium on
gold and exchange. The merchants all be-
evc that the currency will continue to depre-
ciate Constantly, irrespective Of the mcaus
taken to * vent it, aud that gold basis must
be inaugurated by everybody the same as py
the planters
The Gacca publishes a decree making
stamped paper payable in gold.

THE ROYAL ADDREss-At the opening OF
the British Parliament on the 10th iJstant the
royal address was read, as it has been for years
past, by commission. 1t was OF no special in
terest except that the Queen seems to regard
the late marriage Of one of her sous TO the Rus
sian princess as pledge of friendship between
two great empires, which will be very con-
soing idea to her subjects if they can believe
that interest is suborduated to sentiment in
the dealings of states with each other. The
Ashantee war elected a tribute from the
Queen to the courage and endurance OF her
troops, and the Indian famine called forth the
assurance that nothing will be left undone that
it is possible to do to mitigate the terrible ca
lamity. Parliament is to be asked to consider
measures which will have for their object the
more easy transfer of land. If this relates on
ly to the simpliication Of the ponderous and
costly methods of land transfers IN England it
may not be of much significance, but if it will
touch 10 any way upon the law of entail it will
be more serious matter. The alluson to d
bill having for it's object the removal of certain
Objectionable features of the laws regulating
the sale Of intoxicating liquors, which promises
a relaxation of the supervision exercised over
the hours of closing drinking saloons, is looked
upon as sop for the brer-scllers who proved
stauuch friends Of Mr.. Dlsrae during the late
election There is no indication IN this mes
sage of any serious attempt at radical reform.
OF course, what is called the Queens speech
is not Queen speech at all, but that of the
prime minister for the time being who at pre-
sent is Mr.. DisraclI, who seems willing. as far
as the speech can be taken as an indication, to

AN IMposToR. On Tuesday afternoon 4
thick set young man Of medium height, with
dark hair and eyes, and brunette complexion,
set Oft with 4 niccly-trInmcd goa!cc, walked
into the Office of B. H. Warner, corner Of
Seventh and T strccts and applied for work,
telling a very mourn!ul story, stating that he
had come to the city the night before without
any references, Was triendess, and had not
money enough to buy lunch. Mr.. Warner
informed him that he could not give him en-
pigment, and after making further inquiries
of him gave him s. to help him to Phlladc-
phia, he stating that he had friends there who
could assist him. Shortly after he left the office
Mr. Warner went to the Post Office Depart
ment and saw the impccunlOus youth go into
one of the rooms of the Sixth Auditors office.
His suspicious were at oucc aroused, and alter
allowing him sufficient time to engage IN con
versation, Mr.. w. followed him, and found
several gentlemen listening to his pititu story
and in the act of making donations to aid him
on his homeward journey. Mr.. W. iumedia-
tey collarcd him. demanded the s. he had
previously given him, and stated that salts
factory explanation of his conduct would alone
prevent his spending the night in Jail. This
completely ovcrcame the youth, who stated
that he had used the cash and could not eX-
plain Mr. w. saw in his hand cluster PIN
of which he took possession as collateral, and
turned it over to Detective McDevtt for idcn-
LITIGATION 10 case it should be found that the
young man was not the proper owner. This
young man, it appears, has visited great
many business houses in the city, and by his
arttu working on the sympathy of his hearers
has managed to collect a considerable amount

ences which 1 cannot comprehe nd, you hold us
Catholics to be dangerous to the State because
do not wish to expose our souls to eternal
damnation by violating our duties toward God
and toward the Church.
You fall into another error, NJ. lie President,
and into very great error, when you state
the opinion that the firm adhesion of the
clergy and of the faithful to the principles
of Catholic truth and their steadfast persever-
ance in the path of duty, in spite of the unpre-
cedented pressure brought to bear upon them
that this firm adhesion and this perse-
verance are due to my Influence and to.the en-
couragements which emanate from my au-
thority. No; NJ. lie President, these are tho
fruits of the grace and the mercy of God for
no human example or human influence is capa-
BILE of producing such great and wonderful
effects. 1t is God alone who does this, for it is
written The weak things of the world God
chooses that He may confound the strong.

attention to a statement recently made in ono
of our principle newspapers, to the effect til at
the definitions of the Vatican Council, and in
particular that of the Infalliblity of the Ro-
with impunity. 1t has been further affirmed
| that the definition of the Inability of the
Roman Pontiff is denied with impunity in GER

the faithful if not promptly contradicted,
request you to warn your flock that whose
ever shall deny the Infallibility of the Roman
Pontiff, or any other truths defined in the
dogmatic Constitution of the Vatican Coun Gil ,
would be guilty. of the sin of heresy, and
would be thereby separated and excom-

Church.
"In making this declaration-whch is
needless, indeed, for you, rev, brother, and tor
the faithful of this diocese-I cannot refrain
from adding that, SO far as my knowledge ex'
tends, no such denials Of the definitions of the
