Kew west, Fla. Oct. 2S.-The recent
celebration in the United States of the
H anniversary of the first revolution in Cuba
has caused great indignation among the
Il srantards. They hold that the celebration
Il was a gross insult to Spain, and that the

gfze The Spanish organ of Havana, La
Union Constitutional, is especially bitter
in It's comments, and these comments are
significant. inasmuch as they are inspired
by the Spanish government.
The last issue of La Union Constitutional
contains the following regarding the cele-
bration: From different sources we have
received particulars of the scandalous
proceedings that took place in the city of
New York on the anniversary of the up
rising in Yara. 1863

"On the 10th of this month the yankee
flag and the flag of the Cuban rebels, fast
tned together, were displayed through
the streets of New York. on the 10th of
october American citizens insulted the
Spanish nation. on the 10Th of this month,
IN the presence of, and with rejoicing and
sanctified by the American authorities
public meetings were held against the
sovereignty of Spain in this country. TAX
ing part in these public hostilities were
american citizens, many of whom, ignor-
ant as orators substituted this fault by
distributing among the Cuban sympathiz-
ers funds in checks of $780, for the purpose
or purchasing arms and ammunition to be
forwarded to the rebels in Cuba.
The Union Constitutional protests
against these alleged acts that have taken
pace, with the aid and consent of the
1 yankee government, and which constitute
an otense to the Spanish nation, and de-
mands that our government, after having
proved the aforesaid acts, proceed to act
with the energy that the magnitude of
tne outrage calls for, and with the brief
ness that the honor of our flag exacts."
