THE QUESTION on CUBAN BEIL1GRRENcY SAID
TO BE AGAIN THE SUBJECT OF CABINET p1s-
cUssIoE-sPAIS TAKING STRONG GROUND.
1t having been denied that the question Of reoogniz
ing the beigerent rights of Cuba under discussion
by our government and the State Department having
maintained that diplomatic agitation was being had
upon it by the respective officials to whom the discus
sion would properly belong, there is the authority or
the best informed circles for saying that the
whole subject has been again vigorously re-
newed. The article in to-day's HERALD Is
regarded amounting TO divnation and has created
profound sensation and considerable SURPRISE well
as favorable comment Within less than a week past
IL is believed that Mr. Fish has been called upon by
the government OF Madrid with strong reminder to
review the passages of the Presidents Message OF 1870
pertinently alluded to In to days article of the
HERALD on Cuba In fact, the very identical passages
have been, s believed cited for Mr. Fish's careful
attention will form the gst of spains argument

recommendation in that part OF the forthcoming Mes

lieved, on "Cuban belgorent rights" " whatever it
shall be is said by his most intimate friends to be

whether President Grant would confne himself to the

the currency question. There were other important
interests involved but he prepared to enumer

TUE RIGHT PRESIDENCY
Some of the indscree friends Of the opponents Of
Senator Ferry the Of last March have mooted
the question Of his right to Vice President Wilson'S
chair at the opening OF the Senate December Q.
The fact is that Senator Ferry elected President Of
the Senate pro tenn for the very emergency which has
just occurred and tho Senate would stulty itself by
deposing him unless for reasons which very
likely to arise In March last the day the Senate
was about TO adjourn Vice President Wilson vacated

THE MISSION INDIANS OF CALIFORNIA
1t appears from tho records OF the Indian Office that
the government took action 1ve years ago provide
permanent homes for the Mission Indians Of California
but that the reservations then apart for them were
restored to the public domain upon the urgent request
and remonsrance Of the people and press of Southern
California In January, 1871, the President ordered
six sections including the San Pasqua and Paa val
leys be reserved for tho OF the California Mission
Indians in accordance with the recommendations of
Brevet Major General Mcintosh then acting as Super
ntendent of Indian Affairs for California and Ieuten-
ant Greene United States Army agent for the Mission
Indians in said State. This order rescinded the
next month upon the strength of letter written by f.
P. Parker Commissioner of Indian Affairs in which
under date of February 13 1871, he says
1t appears from the papers transmitted herewith
that the citizens OF San Diego county protest against
the order of the President that the Indians unan
mously opposed to going said reservations that the
citizens have made valuable improvements thereon
that there are but few Indians them; that recent
gold discoveries have attracted large Immigration
thither; and the opinion of the press together with
other evidence would indicate that it would be for tho
best interests and welfare of the Indians, well as
Others that the order OF the President setting apart
said lands for Indian purposes be rescinded-
Secretary Deano approved this recommendation for
resembling and the President Immediately restored the
six sections to the public domain. ogario said when
here last week. that he and his tribe declined 70 ac-
quesce in this provision for them because they were
in danger of being disturbed where they were
in other words that their title their old homes was
perfect.
