ONLY POSSIBLE.

An intimate friend OF the President. q
Republican, in high official position. to-
day asserted positively that the Presi-
dent intended the passage in his Message
referring to the fact that this is his last
Message previous to the election of
bis successor to be understood as
clear and final disclaimer of third term
intentions. He said that the President
had spoken of it 10 this sense to few
friends. saying that what he proposed to
utter on the subject in bic Message would
put an end forever to all talk about
third term for himself and leave no fur
ther ground for the agitation of that
question. Washington dispatch.
We would be glad to be able to believe
this. and to know that the Chief Execu-
tive had net at rest the ten thousand fears
and wonderings relative to his probable
action or desire. II is just possible that
Grant. when writing the sentence re-
ferred to, thought that that would end
the matter definitely, and only just pos
sible that IL appeared to his mind as q
clear and final disclaimer of third term
intentions" Yet il is, though possible,
not at all probable. If the President
meant all this it is to be regretted that
the Presidential utterances are SO oracu-
lar and ambiguous as to set the country
agog interpreting bis meaning every time
he opens his mouth. Last May he wrote
a letter on this subject which meant
everything or nothing, and straddled the
fence. Now, in his annual message
worthy document and replete with sense
and clear reasoning on all points he dis
cusses-he knowing the state of popular
feeling. rings in dark, mysterious hint
about this being the last annual message
before his successor would be chosen,
and leaves the matter in "statu quo ante
verbum." How easy it would have been
for Grant to say as Washington and Jack.
sou said on similar occasions, clearly and
distinctly, I am not candidate for re-
election" There would be no lowering
Of Presidential dignity, nothing un.
worthy his notice or beneath his pride
in settling the matter in half dozer
words. Then we need MT look to init
mate friends "in high official position
for Interpretation like Delphic priests Of
old when the oracle had spoken. 1t j,
possible the President meant renuncia
ton OF all future desire for his present
Office, but it is by no means probable
and is to bs viewed as matter OF publ,

to let the people know what his inten
tons are.

CUBA.

Though the Presidents message virtu-
ally leaves the Cuban annexation or in
tsrvention question just where it was five
years ago and speaks in moderate con-
seriousness OF the existing state of affairs
in that island without any very hostile
recommendation as to American action.
yet we learn that in Spain the perusal of
that part Of his message relative to
Cuban affairs has occasioned considera.
BILE uneasiness and distrust. As Presi.
dent Grant proposes to lay before Con.
gress at an early day the policy he deems
best to pursue with regard to Cuba, the
matter may he held in allegiance till then.
His sentiments, so far, indicate interven-
ton as his policy. On this head the
London Times has the following to say,
which may serve as an exponent Of how
the matter looks TO the outside world:
IfSpsin can not suppress the Cuban
rebels, il the island must be half ruined
while she holds it, II she will not put an
end to that institution which is the main
source OF the disturbance, 1t would be
hard to expect the United States to lie,
the work Of devastation proceed I'M
checked, merely out of regard to the
nominal sovereignty of Spain. Spain il
on trial. The time Of her power to re-
store order will be the limits of bel
rights.
In this, the Times argues the case o.
England. Hostile action on the part o
the United States toward Cuba would
benefit England, her interest in this mat
ter being solely the business one Of trad
and commerce, and in this light tn
Times argument 10 consistent enough
But American intervention in Cuban
affairs means war with Spain. and TO
obvious reasons we are just now bardl
prepared to wage war with even a thir
rate European power about O matter tina
is of more vital interest than the politica
aspect OF neighboring island.
victory would be destitute Of glory,
defeat sadly productive Of disaster.

ENGLAND's POSITION.

The result Of the purchase of the Suez
Canal by England would seem TO be an
Endorsement of Turkey by hat great pow
er. Had the recent European imbroglio
resulted in hostile measures il is prob
able England would have made bold
move by at once taking possession of
Egypt, for should the Gear push south
and in the dismembern.ent OF Turkey run
up the Russian flag on the Bosphorus,
England, in defense of her commercial
interests no less than her Indian posses
sions would DO in q manner compelled
to adopt arbitrary means to insure safety
for the one and foothold for defense OF
the other. As it is there is breathing
spell, and as the Suez Canal shares are in
large proportion held on English soil the
British ministry have with rare states
manship forestalled adverse action by
recognizing the indebtedness and for
consideration obtaining tacit control Of
the great inter-oceanic water way. It
may suit Russia, Prussia and Austria to
have Turkey in Europe swept out Of ex-
istence but neither English policy or in
terest would countenance such q step.
Yet should such event come to pass Eng.
land. by her purchase is in defiant posi-
ton as far Ms power goes and in safe
one where her commercial interests are
concerned. Gibraltar, Malta and the
Suez Canal give her short cut from
Europe to Asia and make her the mis-
tress OF the situation. 1t is for her to
dictate and for the other powers to sue
having the game in her own hands abe
can give such terms as she sees fit. By
the purchase the other powers lose wha,
they probably never would have got Oh
having acquired held, yet the possession
Of the Canal by England may give them
an excuse for reprisal by Remembering
and annexing the territory Of the Otto
man. The latest reports from that poin
tend to confirm this surmise. Russi
continues to march troops to the souther
frontier. Austria continues her militar
preparations and on the 9Th inst. a
English squadron comprising anon
other vessels six frigates and manned b
three thousand sailors was ordered froi

This will be the Arst foreign squadro
that ever passed at once through Il
