An important measure was presented In the
Spanish Cortes yesterday, which will, II
adopted, carry into effect the royal order OF
1870, relative to the adjustment OF slavery
In Cuba, and which was to have gone into
operation some months ago. Under its pro
visions slavery Is to cease at once. but mas
much as the government is not able to COM
pensate the slave-owners for the loss OF their
property. compulsory service for wages will
20 required for term of years. Then for an
other term the freedmen will be required to
work under contract or follow some ayOca-
ton under protection Of the government
after which they will be granted full civil
and political privileges. This proposition Of
the Spanish government is more In conso-
nance with the law Of 1870 than the
proposition OF the Cuban planters that
the abolition of slavery shall not be
Immediate, but gradual. It does not alto
vether fulfill the promises then made. 1t Is
more practical, however, and will work
more gradual change In Cuban social Life
than the Cuban royal order would have done.
It Is not probable that the new law will be as
with the slaves as the old one, but 1t Is
,artain to give greater satisfaction to the
planters. 1t secures to them reliable labor
supply for a term OF years and gives them an
,pportu nit,v to make provision for the coming
hanoe, Altogether the bill Is OF vital mo-
aent. and will have marked effect upon the
ocial and mattel 'ial future OF Cuba. In less
