Dissatisfaction Over the Emancipation
Bill

Dissatisfaction Over the Emancipation
Bill.
New YORK, Dec. 11-Letters from Cuba in
dictate q general dissatisfaction with the aboli-
ton bill now before the Spanish cortes as too
liberal. The Voz de Cuba says: "The worst
symptom which we note in Spain, and in this
country, upon trying to realize reform OF
such vital interest, is that cold reason seems to
have been left outside and that passion has in
vaded and is reigning everywhere. No nation
ever was in a better position than we are to re-
solve this grave question satisfactorily. We
have the experience to guide us of other ma
lions who have gone before us in the same re-
form, and thus we ought to make our way in
better manner, especially when we are not
pushed by inevitable occurrences, as was, for
example, the case with the United States.
Slavery was abolished in the United States
only as consequence, and by no means as an
object of the war" paragraph of a letter
from Mr.. Lincoln to Horace Greeley is quoted
by the same, in which the President said: "Nly
object is to save the Union, and by no means
tosave or to destroy the institution Of slavery.
If can save the Union without giving liberty
to single slave L shall do So" In closing the
Voz urges gradual emancipation.
