put upon the bulge that judgments for $500 900
we're registered and placed upon the budget. and
1t was the duty of the administration TO place

Seven Hundred Slaves Oh Il Cuban
Plantation Set Free.
New York Tribul

An account was given in Saturdays
Tribune of the release of eighty slaves
at Santiago dc Cuba, by the widow of
Senor Antonio Fernandez Bramorsio,
and news of similar act of generosity
on the part of wealthy planter of
Cuba has just reached this city. Senor
Miguel Adams, millionaire, and par
tial owner Of seven plantations, who
was exiled from Cuba in 1869, on &C
count of sympathy with the insurgents,
owned, with his brother-in-law, about
two thousand slaves. After his Danish
ment he came to this city, and his pro-
perty was confiscated by the Spanish
government. During his exile he went
to Europe, and while in Paris had the
necessary papers prepared before q
French notary, setting free the seven
hundred slaves, which, according to his
fathers will, were to fall to his share as
co-heir with the marquis of Montello,
his brother-in-law, in the division of the
large estate. This deed he had exc
cuted and recorded on behalf of the
London Abolition Society. TO the ex-
ecutive board of the society he deliver
ed it at the time in order that the Mad
rid government might be informed Of
his wishes. To the efforts of the AbO-
iition society, seconded by the British
foreign office, the government of Spain
lnterposed the plea that the state of war
in the island, and the fact that the
property was contiscated and therefore
out of the control of Senor Aldamo,
precluded the execution of the deed,
pledging itself, however, that should
peace be restored, and return of pro-
perty decreed to the exiled Cubans, the
project might be carried out. The for
eign Office and the Abolition Society
were compelled to submit to this.
Since the restoration of peace in the
island through the Zanjou capitulation,
and the decree of Gen. Campos, restor-
ing to the rightful owners all confscated
property, it has become possible to carry
out this humane plan, and the fact is
for the first time made public that
Senor Aldamo has recently set free the
seven hundred slaves which he owned
in Cuba.
1t is now said that in all probability
the other members of the family, hold
ing the remaining twenty-three hundred
slaves, will initiate his example.

He married the daughter of the as
tronomer at Gotha, an accomplished
lady, whose fine critical taste and learn
ing have been of much advantage to
him in his labor, and so perfect was her
familiarity with his purposes and her
knowledge Of his literary material, that
there is room to hope she may do the
work he designed in the life of Goethe.
He leaves one child, daughter, Lillian,

against the evasion of conscription,
even to facilitate the departure of soci-

the ground that not only socialists, but
a considerable portion of wellto-do

him to accept the terms if coupled with

temporary occupation of Cabul by
British troops.
