Cuba.

The latest Spanish expedient to squeeze
money out of already bankrupt Cuba is to
compel the payment of duties on imports
in one-half gold, and the remainder in bank
bills, adding one hundred per cent to one
half of the proportion thus paid in paper.
The idea of a government thus depreciating
its own currency is something new in the
history of the world, but it illustrates the
desperate straits to which Spanish domina-
ton in Cuba is reduced

"The War of Races"
THE RELATIVE ATTITUDE OF THE WHITES
AND BLACKS AS DESCRIBED BY
CORRESPONDENT FROM
THE NORTH.

New York Herald's Memphis Letter Of Sept. 2.
After travelling over almost the whole
State of Tennessee to endeavor to find
out whether there is q war of races in
this part of the country | calmly settled
down here for a day to try and digest
results. Ii there is any deep-seated
trouble anywhere between the races
Western Tennessee and Northern Mis-
sissippi are the places to find it. With
in q radius of a hundred miles around
Memphis nearly all the recent riots have
occurred. Somerville, where the first
riot occurred, is on a lateral branch of
the Memphis and Charleston railroad,
about fifty miles distant. Austin, Mis-
slssippi, which was next to follow with
its war of races, is on the river, about
eighty miles below. Gibson county,
where there has been the most terrible
emeute of all, is only four or five hours
ride. Each of these events has caused
a great deal of excitement here among
both blacks and whites, and the effect
of that excitement has been in every
instance to deepen whatever animosity
exists between the races. Alarm and
fear are common to both sides, and I
believe the alarm and fear are unfounded
on the part of either. [ have mingled
very largely with the people of this sec
ton, and [ am convinced that it is the
desire Of the great body Of the whites to
live on terms of peace and friendship
with the negroes The whites, on the
other hand, do the negroes the Justice
of saying that this feeling is fully re-
or the part of the blacks. At
the anne time, it is plain even to the
most careless observer, that there is q
want of confidence among the races,
As an illustration Of this singular state
of feeling it may be mentioned that lust
before the recent local elections in this
there was a good deal of excite
.ent among both blacks and whites.
in this city. The women and children
were seriously alarmed, and many of
the me- actually believed that an at
tack was meditated by the negroes. The
negroes too, were in dread of some
wrong from the whites. On both sides
the alarm and excitement were without
cause, and sprung solely from the feel
Of distrust which underlies the firm
est desire to maintain peace and order
n the community. In consequence of
this event the efforts to keep the peace
often tend toward breaking 1T, and it
thus happens that a circumstance trivial
II itself may cOnyulse a whole county.

Contrary TO Law

Of a Cabinet meeting held at Wash
ington OIL the 10th inst, a dispatch says
There was unanimity ON the point
that the recent movement of the CD
ponents of the Kellogg administra-
ton in deposing him from office was an
armed interference, contrary to law, and
raj calculated to lIavea dangerous in
flnence, particularly ON other Southern
States; and therefore it became impor-
tant to adopt means for maintaining,
even it not do jure, at least de facto
government in the State of Louisiana,
the course heretofore considered to be
the only n that could be followed in
the present emergency.
The Administration will continue to
protect Kellogg on the same principle
set forth by the Presidentin an order to
General Sherman through the Adjutant
General, directing that as his proclama-
ton recognizing Baxter as the lawful
Governor of Arkansas had been issued,
Baxter was to be protected in that posi-
ton by United States forces if neces-
Sdry.

After the Revolution.

The New Orleans Times of last Friday,
has these remarks:
Since then the smoke of battle has
blown away the blood shed upon the
levee has dried up or sunk down into
the soil, and another revolution, almost
as sudden, has been accomplished. The
State arms which had been captured
from the Metropolitan brigade have to
be incOntinently returned to the armo-
ries, and the State House, with it's va
riOus offices, has been yielded up to
General Brooke, as military custodian.
Thus the brilliancy of Mondays revolu-
ton is dlmmed by that of Thursday,
and that which was so pOmp0usly par
AIDED as the complete redemption of the
State, sinks into a most lame and imDo-
tent conclusion. a ing
AS soon as the sober-second thought
of the people comes, they will conclude
that it would have been wiser to have
made haste more slowly. Had they &C
cepted our dispassionate counsel, and
united all the elements of conservatism
so as peacefully to work together for
our redemption, rescue from the tolls
of the Radical taskmasters would ere
long have been complete. But they
elected to follow such blind guides as
the Picayune and its Gravier street ally,
and having sOWn the wind at their ad-
vice, they need not be surprised when
the whirlwind cometh.
The situation is now an embarrassing
one, but it must be looked squarely in
the face, and if any crumbs of comfort
are yet to be extracted from the crude
mass of rights and wrongs on hand, the
opportunity should not be lost. Prac-
tically speaking, the fruits of Mondays
revolution have been turned into Dead
Sea apples.

HIS VIEWS ON THE CIVIL RIGHTS BILL.
Especial Dispatch to the Cincinnati Commercial.
Washington, Sept. 14.-The Presi-

ator Spencer, Of Alabama, and Repre-
sentatives Hays and Raper, of the same
State, stated, with some indication of
irritation, to these gentlemen, that he
thought they had acted iniudicously.
and had the Civil Rights Bill passed at
the last session Of Congress he would
have vetoed it. General Grant further
said that he thought the Southern Re
publicans had made a great mistake in
forcing the Issue upon this bill at this
General Grant being further interro-
gated, said if the bill should pass at the
next session he would not veto it pro-
badly, for then the whole Republican
party would be responsible,
