OUR RELATIONS WITH SPAIN


Admiral Polo Bernabe, Minister of the
Spanish Republic" to this Government,
sailed from New York yesterday for Spain,
having been recalled by the Serrano gov
eminent for the purpose of assigning him
to duty again in the Spanish navy. The
occasion of his departure has been the sub
ject of much inquiry, and of many sensa-
tional dispatches from this city regarding
the relations existing between the United
States and Spain One correspondent, at
least, has gone 90 far as toannOunce that he
was recalled on acSount of the position as
sumed by Minister Cushing at Madrid re-
garding the VirCinius affair. 1t is hardly
necessary to contradict this assertion. as
those who remember the facts know
that Admiral Polo, in the discharge
of his duties as the Envy of Spain,
agreed with Secretary Fish to the
Virginius protocol of November 80, 1873,
and will appreciate the impossibility of his
being recalled on account of Mr. Cushing's
effort to secure the final indemnity due to
this Government as the result of the Santiago
massacre. II is true that he was appointed
by and represented the CASTELAR, govern
ment, and that Marshal Serrano, since his
succession 70 power, has done many things
t. repudiate the acts of Castelar,, but lie has
at no time given any indication of a desire
or design to interfere with the terms of the
protocol, and it is therefore, a reasonable
presumption that Admiral Polo's recall is
IN the nature Of IN ordinary change, and is
made fog the purpose we have mentioned.
Mr. Cushinc's efforts have been so
fagrantlY miSstated and misrepresented
that it is proper 10 explain in this connec-
tion the position which he really occupies.
By the terms of the protocol all questions
arising from the difficulty after the surrender
of the Virginius, including reciprocal re-
carnations, are to be the subject Of consid-
Grafton and arrangement between the two
Governments. and in the event Of no agree
ment being reached they are to be the sub
iect of arbitration. The negotiations of
Mr.. Cushing it is well known, have been
made under this provision of the protocol,
and can consequently end in nothing but
arbitration. At the same time it is posi-
bic, although there is no authentic infOr-
nation to sustain the assertion, that our
Government may be induced, in view Of
the change of government at Madrid and
the activity of the British Government in
pressing its demands for reclamation, to in
sist more vigorously than it has for several
months past that some definite conclusion
shall be reached, and that Spain shall no
longer be allowed to delay results by
means Of her characteristic temporizing

CUBAN DIFFICULTIES AND PROS
PECTS.

Even the casual reader of the telegraphic
dispatches as they are printed each morn
ing in the newspapers Of the day cannot
have failed to notice the fact that serious
financial crisis now impends in Cuba, and
that it is supplemented by reported sue
ccsses of the insurgents. 1t is well known
that the Spanish, who monopoliZe the COM
merce of the Island. have never been very
careful in their manner of doing business;
that, in fact, they arc notoriOusly reckless,
and it is, therefore, matter of great signif-
Cance that they have become alarmed at the
prospect. Sustained as they have been by
mistaken belief that the insurrection would
not last long the Spanish authorities have
virtually allowed matters to manage them
selves; have made loan upon loan, levied
tax upon tax, and have at last discovered
that their resources are about exhausted.
1t is now almost six years since the abdica-
ton of Queen Isabella, and the insurrection
on the Island, which began at that time,
has not been subdued. The cost of the ef-
forts to subdue It has been enormous, and
the idea has prevailed that the wealthy
Spaniards, whose wealth has been accrued
by years of unjust discrimination in bust
ness privileges against the natives, would
willingly add their mite to the general tax
fund for the purpose of defraying it. All
that the Madrid Government could do was to
furnish troops, and the consequence has been
that the Cubans since October, 1868, have
virtually maintained the armies of their
enemies. OF course the amount of coin
either in the bank vaults, in the possession
of private individuals, or in the ordinary
channels of commerce was insufficient to
meet the demands Of the Government.
The issue of paper money was resorted TO,
and the patriotism of the people was relied
upon to sustain its value. But it was q
vain reliance. Prices Of the necessities of
Life were soon fixed at gold rates, and as
the value of the crops and current resources
of the Island were closely estimated it was
discovered that the income of the Govern
ment would not enable it to keep its obli-
cations to redeem its paper. The result is
premium on gold Of nearly three hundred
per cent. General COnoha, the present
Captain General, and brother of Marshal
Concha, killed few days ago in Spain,
adopted plan Of excessive taxation, rely
ing again and in vain upon the patriotism
of the people for support. He agreed that
a certain percentage of the paper money
received for taxes should be burned, and
tried to make the people believe that in
this ways gradual return from the extrava-
CANT redundancy Of the currency could be

PARTY MILKING

Mr. Brooks Adams, the youngest of the
four sons of Mr.. Charles Francis Adams, is
the latest conner in the field with platform
for a new party. In the North American
RsUiew for July he prints paper which is
making somewhat Of q sensation, not that
it contains anything absolutely new or ex-
presses a single idea which has not been
expressed thousand times as clearly, and
as strongly in other places and under other
circumstances, There is, however, some
witchery in the Adams name and fame for
large number Of our people, and it is sort
of negative satisfaction to 8 great many to
know that the youngest of the family is not
disposed to permit the reputation of his
house to be sustained entirely by his
brothers. The Adamses are natural poll
ticians, not very strong in the caucus or the
convention; not hot and angry partisans-

A HARTFORD CORRESPONDENT writes us
that the senior editor Of the COurdRt has
not yet returned home from Washington,
and therefore cannot be held responsible
for the leader in that journal upon the re-
TRACY of Mr.. Dawes, and naming Sam.
Bowles, of the Springfield Republican, as
his successor. He knows that Gen. Hsw-
ley is possessed of the most kindly feelings
towards Mr. Dawes, and enjoys his warm
friendship. He evidently thinks that our
criticism of the article referred to was un-
just to Mr. Hawley for these reasons, and
lie also denies that Governor Hswley ia

accomplished; but emergencies arose COM
pelling him TO make new issues, and the
result is that the business men have raised
such revolutionary clamor about his ears.
In fact, he finds himself. confronted with a
financial panic which amounts to rebel
lion, as well a. with rapidly increasing
and wide-spreading armed instruction.
He knows that he cannot appeal for aid to
the Madrid authorities-not even for more
troops, and his condition is therefore one
of decided embarrassment.
But the practical result of the situation,
and one that will rejoice the heart OF every
true American, is that a reform in the SEN
timent Of the people of Havana, as we'll as
other cities and sesports of the Island has
followed as a matter of course. Three
years ago-in fact, one year sgo-a prophesy
that such a reform would occur would have
been denounced as the merest twaddle; but
it is nevertheless true that, by comparison
with the mismanagement Of affairs by the
Spanish authorities, the insurrection has
grown popular. The number Of its open
adherents has increased, and its sympa-
thizers may now be found everywhere in
high and low position throughout the.
Island. Added to this is the encouraging
fact that arms and ammunition have re-
Gently been safely landed and placed in the
possession Of the insurgents, SO that, sus-
tanned as they are by this favorable change
in nublic oninion. they are in better condi-
ton to carry on the war for their Inde-
pendence than ever. With their slaves all
free and fighting in their ranks, with Spain
exhausted and with the Havanese suthori-
ties in condition Of bankruptcy, it seems
to be among the certainties of the future
that before Congress meets again they will
have so far asserted their strength as 10 be

WE PRINT this morning the fun text Of
the letter of Goyernor Kemper. of Virginia,
explaining his connection with the Fed
eral Administrator" during the late State
canvass which resulted in his election. It
will be noticed that the much-talked-of
''Scott Letter. is not included, although his
letters to Col Mosby are printed in full.
The explanation requires no comment, save
that which naturally suggests itself, that the
Governor while candidate, resorted to-
petty tricks and promises, which he never
intended to keep, for the purpose of winning
votes from disafected Democrats
