MADRID, Oct. 23.-There was no further
firing Sunday upon the Spanish troops at
Melilla- The Moors have shown remark
able bravery. After the first shots on Sat
urday were fred at them from the gunboat
Venadito, the Moors rushed down to the
beach and returned the fire of the warship,
their shots falling only 100 yards from the
Venadito.
The Moors have removed their families
and household goods out of gun range and
are now occupying their former positions.
They continue to construct earthworks
and have in their possession two fieldpieces
one old and one new-and both manned
by renegade Christians. The Spanish min
lister at Tangier estimates that the Moorish
force available amounts to about SC, 900
fighting men. On the other hand, General
Margallo calculates that the Moorish force
does not number more than $4,000 men.
The Spanish government is preparing five
transports, which will convey REINFORCE
ments 70 Melilla.

Hayt Letter in Providence Journal
Not the least interesting feature Of the
place is the barracks, where is quartercd
a portion of Hippolyte's valiant army
The only attempt at uniform is suit Of
blue overaus, generally in the last stage
of dilapidatiOn. and a cap ornamented
with red, yellow, or blue braid, according
to the fancy Of the wearer. some lew

They are armed however, with fairly
good mUskets. and many Of them carry
ugly looking knives. saw large numbers
Of the soldiers on the plaza or pubic
square. some playing at dice or cards,
some talking, others sleeping, and all
lazy, dirty, and ragged. TINS plaza,
which was originally well laid out and
which actually boosted an ancient toun-
tain in the center, was Uttered with re
fuse rooted up by hogs, and fifty with
house offal and dung. The ancient paved
walks, which originally traversed 1t were
sadly broken and the loose stones were
widely scattered by the hogs.
Outside of the town and as FAR as the
eye can reach extends a billy country
covered with forest In long tramp
through this country we saw no Guilt
waited land. And yet this land is said to
be extremely fertile and to yield largely
any tropical product that is planted upon
it. From an examination OF an out
cropping ledge Of rock ] decided that the
soil was underlaid with limestone, and
such a soil is nearly always rich
But the richness of this island is wasted.
For even the old plantations which were
well set with coffee, oranges and cOcoanuts
are grown up with tropical forest and
yield next to nothing.
Right in the midst Of a Jungle of wild
trees and bushes | found traces of an old
orange and mango grove, indicated by the
remains Of straight rows in which these
! trees were originally planted. And with
the decline and ruin of the plantations
mas declined everything in connection
with them. Even the old carriage roads
which originally traversed the island and
formed a channel for conveying the pro-
Iuce to the ports are now only bride
paths being completely OvergrOwn with
forest and bushes And this is Hayti, the
Hispaniola of Columbus. the pride and
glory Of the great admiral! For it viii
| be remembered that, after examining the
other large islands Of the West Indies,
Columbus decided that this one was the
richest and best And later when under
French rule, it was one of the fairest and
wealthiest spots in the civilized world.
The whole republic, in fact, is gigantic
farce.
No nation has ever shown itself more
utterly incapable of government than
the black republic. In some eighty years
of HayJian independence there have been
more than ninety revolutions. The chill
dren with a few exceptions, grow up in
absolute ignorance, and with deep, in
! born hatred of the white man. The rulers
are blOodthirsty tyrantS and the country
mas degeneFated into a tropical wilder
ness.
