Present Condition Of Cuba ant

NEW YORK, March %. - Jay
Gould just arrived. being inter

.'Matters in Cuba are simply de-
plorable. The country is taxed to
the verge of ruin. The planters
are all falling. There is no conf
dence among the merchant classes,
and, in fact. it is diffic ult to find
words strong enough to express
the miserable condition of affairs
that is found in that island. I'm
less the Spanish Government does
something for the relief of the peo-
pie, absolute ,uin is impending
there. Florida is full of Northern
men, and Nothern capital and en-.
terprise are working out astonish
ing results. When l was there

the Hotels. and all through the
State there are numbers of North
ern men, and this works to a
double advantage. While the in
fusion of a new spirit and enter
prise ana a flow capital develope
the country, the presence of North
ern men tends to harmonic the
people of the two sections, and to
obliterate whatever of bitterness
there may have been left by the
war. What is needed all along the
Southern Coast, even as far as Gal
weston, is Government aid, as far
as it can be extended, to deepen
the harbors. Their commerce is
large and increasing, but the har-
bors are shallow. think the
United States Government could
wisely spend some of its surplus in
this direction.

TELECRAPHIC
An EArthQuake Belt More De-
sirable for Residence than

| An Earthquake Belt More De-
sirable for Residence than
q Flood Area.
New YORK, March %. - The
Tribune says: The people of San
Francisco are naturally afraid of
earthquakes; first, because there
is no more terrifying phenomenon
in nature, and second, because they
think the reputation Of liability to
those shocks will keep away popu-
lation. But in truth the experience
of the past does not justify serious
alarm on the subject. All the
earthquakes that have occurred
since California became . State
has not caused one thousapdth
part of the damage inv olved in the
foods of the OHIO and the Missis-
sippi. Nay. the recent little local
food at Roberts Island in the Sac
ramento river has done more dam
age than all the earthquakes. The
people have been much more
frightened than hurt by the latter
and though when shock comes
everybody rushes for the street, it
is fact that no single life has yet
been lost in a building by one of
these earthquakes. All who have
been killed have been struck in the
street by falling debris, and the
rationol inference would seem to
be the wisest course during an
earthquake if to stay indoors. Of
course the people can't help lear
ing that O much heavier shock may
occur some day, and no one car
deny that possibility. but there
should be much comfort on the
reflection that hithe.erto the Pa
cific Coast has been very mildly
shaken up. and the record may
we'll justify the belief that no ca
tastrophe need be apprehended.
There are, moreover, not a great
many tall and massive buildings In
San Francisco. and wooden houses
appear to be almost earthquake
proof. On the whole, San Francisco
ought not to alarm herself over
much because of these telluric &c
centricities. Nor can other cities
Justly congratulate themselves at
her expense, for the statistics show
that it is safer to live in an earth
quake belt than in a food erea

We had occasion to hint, some
time back, that our friend Al. L.
Keats had an object in view when
he commenced the construction of a
residence out on Riverside avenue,
and it proves that our conjecture was
true, and furthermore that the OBJ
ject was a very pretty young lady.
The boys have been feverish for
some time. They had a present.
ment that Al. was about to commit
matrimony, and were laying to give
him a benefit on the suspicious 'oc-
casiOn. But Mr.. Keats was too sharp
for them, and the first thing his
friends knew he was a married man
and comfortably settled down. The
happy union took place last Sunday
evening, only II very few knowing
of the affair. The lady in the case
was Miss Ollie Ellis, highly re-
spected, charming and amiahle young
lady. While it is getting late in the
week to trOt out congratulations, yet
we don't propose to get left entirely,

may constitute their lot until
