THE CUBAN WAR ENDED.

! 4 : u . H y
The Cuban insurrection, which was in
augurated in 1865, and had for its object
the independence of the island, has, after
along and bloody struggle, ended by the
surrender ofthe insurgent forces, induced
by concessions made by the Spanish gov
ernment. This war has resulted in the
granting OF rights to the Cubans, which
taeydid not before possess, butwhether Of
suf6cientimportance to compensate them
for the ten years war is doubtful. Ac-
cording TO the terms of surrender, Cuba
will be represented in the Spanish Cortes,
in proportion to Its population, and the
provincial and municipal laws Of Spain
will be applied in its government and sd-

They we're no better than highwaymen.
If man is caught by band Of highway
men and told to sign note for large
sum of money on tue pain Of death If he
refuses to do SO, do you think when these
thieves come to get the money and he
refuses to pay it, that they can force him
to pay it by law. This is a parallel case
and there is no difference whatever. One
is Just as bad as the other. Are we more
interested in these bonds than we are in
our own State? WHY, sir, l feel that
none of US would to do such thing as
this. Why, sir. if I should vote to COM
pei my people to pay the fraudulent
claims and. further oppress them with
taxation to make them pay, I would not
dare to face my people, 1 could not go
back and face my honest constituents.
No, sir, as long 1 live I shall raise my
voice against paying these debts"
