PEACE IN CUB4

AT last there is to be peace in Cuba. 1t is
the peace of exhaustion aud submission Re-
viewing the vileness and treachery Of Spain
and the cowardice Of the United States during
the continuance Of war between Cuba and
| Spain the Baltimore Meus has the following
extract containing truth, sentiment and just
reprimand Of this Unions timidiiy:
$50 brutal and reckless and savage were
the myrmdons sent to conquer the fever
faithful isle, that even the rights of nations
and the decency Of Christendom were not
regarded. The murder of Captain Frey and
crew shocked the world and put blot on the
American name. The detention and search of
American vessels again and again heaped in
spt upon us. And yet the hatchery of a
brave American crew and all The affronts
offered us were patiently borne and Burrie,
the butcher, was promoted for his infamy
before our very eyes. If so little regard was
paid TO the opinion and rights of powerful
nations what must have been the awful fate
OF the districts given over 10 the ruthless pill
age, sacking and license of a butalized
soldiery?
And yet this county, with its Monroe
Doctrine" ever before it, with neighboring
people fighting for the Godgiven rights Of
man, and coniending against a despotism
which has not an equal in perfdy and cruelty
on the face of the earth, sat quietly by and
saw terrible samples of sickening horror, beard
bitter appeals from The depths OF wretchedness,
submitted to insults to its own flag and in
jury TO its own commerce, and did not lift
hand to help or to save. 1t lis a bitter memory,
and one which will leave an ugly blotch upon
our fair escutcheon forever.
Yes, peace is announced for Cuba. There is
world Of sadness in that proclamation.
Peace with whom? Where are the heroes
who once bore the flag of Cuban liberty?
Where are The brave bands whose exploits
once carried CONSERVATION to Havana and
Ioused frantic mobs in Madrid? Where are
the beautiful homes, once graced with strong
and chivalrous sons and bright and blooming
daughters? With whom were the terms of
surrender and amnesty arranged? The soil
surrendered its heaps of ashes and ruins, and
amnesty has been granted TO bleaching bones
and orphaned beggars And America stood by
to the end and sees peace! hideous mockery
restored TO Cuba

There undoubtedly exists in business circles
generally u feeling of confidence that the
spring trade, now fairly under war, will be
more active and prosperous than at anv time
since the panic Of 1873. The briskness with

evidence that there is a lsrger outflow Of
money than we have seen since the com.
mencement Of the long era Of stringency and
distrust and as a rule il Is found that the
buyers from the large importing and jobbing
houses are increasing their orders and snlarg-
ing their stocks. This is particularly true Of
the West and South, sections Of the country
which are Just beginning TO feel the good ef
fects Of their immense crops OF cotton, tobacco
and cereals Of last year, which were mostly
sold at profitable figures. The great business
