How the Message il Received
HAVANA, December l6-The message of
President Grant is generally discussed with
out excitement by the people, who do not
attach much Importance to the illusions to
Spain and Cuba. The authorities give no
lengthy editorials which, while they are not
con sidered to reflect the sentiments of the
people in general, may suit the views OF the
parties they represent.
The Vos de CuJa says the silence observed
on Spanish affairs by the German Emperor
in his speech to the Reichstag is amply
compensated for in President Grants mes
sage. 1t is q noticeable coincidence. it
observes, that while tho United States
aspire to supremacy in America, and Ger.
many aspires to supremacy in Europe.
both are anxious to intermeddle with
the internal affairs of Spain. Aside from
desire OF these nations to have peace
in Spain, her affairs can NOS inverest
them SO much as ourselves, and we must
view their efforts with suspicion. Russia
imposed silence in Germany. We do not
know who will make Grant silent. As for
the iDsurrectiOE here, OH the strength and
duration OF which the President lays stress.
it is less powerful now than it was at the
beginning. and its endurance fails to give

power will interfere in Spanish affairs, at
least in Cuba; but should they attempt in.

The Didrio, in an article moderate in tone.
says: There is nothing in the message to
cause alarm to the most timid. The present
condition of affairs is not to be compared
with that Of last year. There has been
come excitement in the gold market over
reports about the message, to which we at
tribute the rise Of eight per cent in premium.
Referring to the military situation, the
Diari0 declares affairs have improved in
the eastern department; while they show
no change since the auiumn Of 1873 in the

From an item which appears in the

police magistrates Of the city Withholding
the amounts collected by them. we are in
formed by Judge Staes that the city has
not settled with him for his services for
nine months; that the city is indebted to
him for his salary to the amount of more
than $4,000, Of which the sum held by him,
$6l4 so, is very small proportion. For
this amount he holds himself responsible to
