THE WAR IN CUBA.

DESPATCH OF YESTERDAY = EVIDENCES OF
GRAND SPANISH EFFORT TO CRUSH
OUT THE INsURRECTIoN.
The news teegraphed to this city from Madrid, and
published in Yesterdays HERALD to the effect that the
Epocd Of Madrid had stated that the Spanish Cabinet
recently discussed its reply to the Washington note,
which tends TO dctermine the relations of Spain and
America has caused little comment and excitement
among spaniards and Cubans in this city The Cubans
believe that the President will do his best obtain bel
lgercnt rights for the Cubans.
II is stated that tho Spanish government Is sending
very large body OF troops to Cuba apparentyto make
supreme effort to crush out the rebellion. In addi-
ton this steamships leaving this port loaded to
their utmost capacity with provisions for the troops
Cuba. Two Of them left this port yesterday and others
will soon follow. The cereals taken out include rice
and wheat in vast quantities, and when further
tngents Of Spanish troops arrive in Cuba the exports
Of brcadstuns viii, doubtless, be doubled. The
steamers going to Havana are all carrying deckloads
which entails little danger to all board at this
OF the year The steamers advertised to leave
this port during the next fortnight have all their
already engaged, and shippers told at the Havana
shipping Offices that they cannot receive their goods
till later on 1t is probable that number OF sailing
ships will be put the berth for Havana and likewise
several extra steamers.
The Spanish official organ in this city, in its last
issue admits the fact that its is in receipt
not Of diplomatic note, but despatch from State
Department through Mr.. Cushing relating to Cuban
affairs and after indulgng in good deal of buncombe
signifies its hope that the Spanish government will
der all its available ronclad feet to Cuba and show the
people of the New World how nation Of heroes can
preserve its raditonalhonor and die in the last ditch
lighting.
THE EVACUATION OF THE cISco VILLAS DISTRICT
by the Spanish army in Cuba has been for time
past contemplated by Captain General Valmaseda and

manders invited The matter, after being pro-
tractedy and warmly discussed sanctioned by
thirds majority Of those present. numbering twenty
five and measures looking to early evacution Of the
Eastern and Central departments, including the Cnco
Villas, have been already made.
