THE WAR IN CUBA.

Some Hard Fighting RcpOrted-Spaniards
Defeated in One Engagement and Vic
torious in Another.
SANTIAGO De CUBA, Oct. THE ex-
citement created in this city by the ar.
rest of four prominent gentlemen in
creases daily. One result of the arrests
has been to cause many men and even
boys of II to IA years of age to leave
their homes and join the rebels. An
other result has been to cause a large
increase in the emigration from the
island. The arrest of these four men
has given the death blow to autonomy
here. One of the prisoners is the vice
president and the others members of
the autonomist party here.
On September 90 Spanish force met
a rebel party of 300 men near Hatillo,
The Spaniards were 900 strong, but
were badly whipped. Their loss was
eighteen killed and seventy-four
wounded. The Spaniards fed, leaving
many of their wounded behind them.
The insurgents lost four killed and
twelve wounded.
HAVANA, Oct. 7.-Gen. Echagne re-
ports from Holguin that his command,
numbering 1000 men, routed on Sep
tember &c about $500 rebels under An
tonic Maceo. The engagement, which
took place near Guaybal lasted seven
hours. The rebels left two killed on
the field. Maceo was seriously wounded
and was carried off by his men. The
government loss was four wounded
The troops captured large quantity
of war material. 1t is asserted that
Maceos band has broken up and dis
banded, small groupes of the rebels
fleeing in every direction.

AsI look over this multitude of men,
my thoughts run thus: 1t does not seem
so bad for young man to be in this in
stitution, but old men have little hope.
They often wish for the end Of the wretch
ed remnant of life, and that wish is a
rational one; but then the innate princi-
pie of self-preservatiOn, wisely implanted
in our natures for obvious purposes, Op-
poses that wish and makes us endeavOr
to spin out our thread as long as we can,
however decayed and rotten it may be-;
and in defiance of common sense, we seek
on for that chymic gold which beggars

There was something curiouSly sys-
tematic and business-like about the sui
eide Of Percy G. Chamberlain, the Eng
lishnlan who killed himself in Chicago.
His letters, addressed '"ro the coroner
or to whom it may concern and to his
landlady, indicate neither the excite
ment nor the brooding deliberation of
the insane The first missive merely
alleges that there was no motive for
the self-slaughter except that the vic
tim was very tired Of living and chose
to assist nature. by hurrying his dc.
parture from earth. Ordinarily the man
contemplating suicide is too much con,
cerned with the one important matter
of death to consider the effects Of his
performance in detail. His last letters
