Inappropriate Hymns.

Utter thoughtlessness is sometimes
manifested in the announcement of I'M
suitable hymns. On a bright Sabbath
morning pastor gave out the oppressive
evening hymn commencing
Savior, breathe an evening blessing,
Ere repose our spirits seal.
During the preaching of farewell
sermon by clergyman, the people were
so melted down with emotion and the
speaker was so much affected that he
was scarcely able to proceed. Calling
upon q ministerial brother to close the
service, the latter announced the hymn:
Jesus We lift our souls TO Thee,
Thy holy spirit breathe,
And let this little infant be
Baptized into Thy death.
In some churches choirs are permitted
to sing their own voluItaries with which
to close the service. At the funeral of .
distinguished gentleman Of Nassachu-
sets, the singers sang Of their own ac-
cord:
Believing, We rejoice
To See the curss removed,

the inflationists demand the repeal of the

of legal tenders by the Government to

notes. This last effort Of the Sentinel is
one Of the weakest we have seen in print

These charges were explained some
what after this fashion: Cuba was e1-
psctsd to pay the troops stationed in the
island to the number of IL 900, but the
pay-rolls seldom fell short Of 5000.
The sum of three millions and upward
for the navy was to pay for feet which
Spain invaribly kept in West Indian
waters, not for any probable employ
ment, but TO ease the home Treasury by
charging the expense to the province Of
Cuba. In the sum of million and .
quarter for the State Department are in
cludsd the salaries Of all diplomatic and
consular officers in American countries,
in fact, the entire Spanish diplomatic
and consular corps in this hemisphere.
The sum actually RENTED to Spain from
Cuban ta1ation in 1867 vas 1874, 301.
The Spanish budget of 1867 showed the
net income Of the taxable property Of
Cuba that year, and the taxation WAS
twenty-four and quarter per cent. on
her yearly produce. This tax amounted
to over S43 per capita Of every white
resident of that island. In this state
ment can be seen one of the impelling
reasons which induced the people of
Cuba to renounce their allegiance to the
home Government. At the outset of the
war for Independence, the Spaniards re-
sorted to every method, however barbar-
Gus, which in their opinion might con-
duce to the overthrow OF the insurrec-
ton. Valmassda's proclamation Of April,
1869. was only = reduction to writing
and to classification of the brutal style
Of warfare waged by the Spaniards from
the outbreak. 1t ordained that the
country should be rendered uninhabita-
BILE, that houses should be burned, and
that all women and families should be
compelled to remove into the cities. Nor
was this threatened devastation Of the
island new menace. Spain had always
declared that Cuba should be Spanish or
African; and that if forced to surrender
it she would surrender only . desert. In
execution Of this threat, in 1869 the
Spanish troops laid waste the whole Of
Carmaguey, and with the exception Of
the jurisdiction OF Guantanamo. the
whole Of the Eastern Department. The
slave gangs employed upon the destroyed
estatss were taken to Havana. sold there,
and distributed on the sugar estates of
Natanzas and Cardsnas; and this meth
cd has been adhered to ever since.
To-day the tables are turned. The
Cubans have adopted the policy of their
enemies. and thus they have deprived
them of the sinsws Of war. General
Gomez, the commander of the Cuban
forces. took possession of the Villas Dis
,rict last January and has since held it.
The Cuban army in that district num-
bsrs more than s, 200 veteran soldiers, .
force more than sufficient to finish not
only the work of devastation in that
but to send columns Of greater
strength than the Spaniards can oppose
into the Jurisdictions Of Colon. Cards-
mas and Natanzas. So far Spain has
sent more than $50. 600 soldiers to Cuba
and spent more two hundred millions Of
dollars in the vain endeavor to suppress |

sharp and decisive. Moreover. the in
sular character Of Cuba. with coasts
more than eighteen hundred miles in
length and with an average breadth OF
territory Of not more than fifty miles,
have been all to the advantage Of Spain,
rs she has been enabled tc transport
with rapidity her forces from one point
on the coast to any other she desired.
But all this has been to no purpose. for
the patriots have made such steady pro
gress that, if not checked. Havana will
soon be belsagusrsd by them. This has
30 far been fo.essen by the Spanish Casino
at Havana that they have already re-
with the home Government
on the absurdity Of sending any more
troops to Cuba. So all the probabilities
point to the fact that the next celebration
of the Declaration Of Cuban Independ-
snce will occur in Havana as we'll a. in
other parts Of the Gem of the Antilles.

SEVEN YEARS OF WAR.

On the 10th OF October the Cuban
patriots celebrated the seventh anniver-
sary Of their Declaration Of Indspend-
sncs of Spanish rule. How the day was
hailed by the gallant, determined and
much suffering people Of that island
can we'll be imagined by those Who have
kept themselves informed of the war
