Admiral Bunce, with the North At
lantic squadron, will not take their usual
cruise this year in and amongst the West
India islands. The Southern seas will
miss the jolly boat of an American man

lieutenants lolling about the coral reefs.
and inditing sonnets to the eyebrows of
their sweet hearts. The middics and
lieutenants are at present otherwise en-
gagged, drilling men ut the guns fore and
aft and the broadside. The wrinkled
front of grim visaged warts deepening the
lines in drawn brows as naval battles
flash through the Imagination of officers
and men. The lieutenants and middies
are consoled for their dolce dreams in
Southern waters by anticipation of prizes
and the division of British gold captured
from some transport on the way to Can
ada to pay off the English army in that
province of old England.
But-and that is big word-but the
fleet was kept at home as matter of
precaution, and all dreams of navy of
ticers are but dreams after all, as there
is no more danger of Il war with England.
The sober second thought of both gov
ernments has been caught from the citi-
zens of each country and their voice is
not for war.

THE MONROE DOCTRINE.

The Nashville Banner says: with
all of the arguments against the applica-
ton of the Monroe doctrine to the Vene-
Zuela case, the fact remains that the
United States is of age and can give its
own Interpretation to the doctrine and
make it apply, the DIRECTORS to the con-
trary Notwithstanding. The people of
this country will stand by their president
in this matter. The late Secretary
Gresham had decided convictions on this
subject. The Washington Post says that
not two months before he died Mr.. Gresh-
am said:
81 do not regard these hair-line inqui-
ries as to what the Monroe doctrine was
as peculiarly important. With me. |
don't so much care what the doctrine was
as what the American people think today
that it is. | am willing, under our sys-
TEN. to take that construction of the Mon
roe doctrine which majority of the Amer
lean people gives. and enforce it and
stand on it as the Monroe doctrine. And
| believe the American people hold the
Monroe doctrine to mean that no Euro
pean power shall be allowed to extend
or increase its foothold on this hemis-
phere beyond the boundaries recognized in
the time of Monroe. BY that construc-
ton am ready to stand as expressive of
the Monroe doctrine, and | would split
no hairs about it,"

CI1BAN INDEPENDENCE.

General Gomez has or is about to knock
the persimmon. His guns are barking
in the suburbs of Havana. Not intimi-
dated by the frowning battlements oil

the gates of the doomed city. Havana
is loyal to Spain, but it has large ana
turbulent element that has or will rise
in its might in the confusion and help the
Cuban rebels to plumber the Spanish mer-
chants of that city. What hot haste

in the harbor of Havana. How wealth
has been melted down to convenient
size to conceal and take out of the coun-
try by Spanish citizens. What Il vacancy
there must be just now in the fine man
sions of that delightful city. Plenty of
room even TO stable the horses of the
rebel cavalry in the marble palaces of
the city.
If Gomez has entered Havana, it is not

san ANTONIO MUNICIPAL RE
FORM

The Rev. Bayard Craig. pastor of n
san Antonio congregation, has inaugural
cd II DR.. Parkhurst pulpit reform in that
city. OF course the Rev Mr.. Craig is bet
ter informed than we are on the moral or
immoral condition Of the San Antonians.
bun We must confess that while we have
always regarded Austin as more pious
or moral city than San Antonio, that we
have never regarded San Antonio either
as 4 Sodom or GOmOrrah. But as we OBJ
served the pastor Of Il church in that city
knows better than we do, and he seems
to regard a pulpit effort at municipal re-
form as necessary.
We have always thought that our es-
tecmcd contemporary, the Express and
other, very esteemed contemporaries in
San Antonio, too numerous to mention,
were rather rcmiss in intoxicating morals
into their readers, and we are not sur
prised that the pulpit is attempting to
cultivate the neglected soil. Now. if the
Express and the other numerous cotem-
pories, not mentioned specifically, had fol-
iOh'u liit VI lnclT tlupF cOIpUl-
porary, The Statesman, and preached to
their readers Il sermon on every Sunday,
the morals of that city would have been
in such good condition that the pulpit
would have stuck more closely to it's text
and preached religious rather than politi-
cal reform.
But as our contemporaries have neg
lectcd the field, we are not astonished to
see the pulpit occupying it, our only re-
greet is that the religious part of the com
munity will suffer neglect while the pul-
pit devOtcs itself to the job of reforming
San Antonio in its municipal depart
mcnts, which, it seems will occupy all of
it's time. The Statesman would have felt
very much chagrined if it had PERMITTED
the morals of the citizens of Austin to get
ut such low ebb as to pervert municipal
politics, but it is too late to advise our
San Antonio contemporaries to follow the
example of The Statesman in keeping the
morals of their readers up to the Al
standard, and rs the pulpit has been
forced into the arena, we trust the news
papers will lend it sufficient aid to rcctify
the municipal morals of the city of San
Antonio.

tory of the world when the small formal
tiles should be brushed aside, unworthy
of consideration. We ought not to have
waited until Cuba won its independence
before acknowledging their bel,igerent
rights and thereby giving them an equal
opportunity with their enemies to obtain
arms and munitions of war. 1t was ex-
pected that as soon as congress convened
this would be done. Now they have
virtually gained their Independence with
out any aid from MS and they owe us no
thanks or obligations. They will win
their independence unaided by any but
their brave hearts and strong arms and
the wisdom Of their leaders. God grant
that they may enjoy it nationally and as
BELTS Christian people.

PAYS RARNuM,S ESTATE.

p. r. Barnum. the late Snowman. own
ed some property in Venezuela, which
during one of the revolutions there several
years ago was confscated and destroyed.
Through the United States government
Mr.. Barnum made claim for compensa-
ton and was awarded $1400. The Nene-
zuelan government was not able to pay
lump sum, but agreed to pay it in ten an
nual instalments, with interest added. so

ceive from the republic of Venezuela now

of Mississippi was particularly note
worthy. He traced the progress or the
negro race since its emancipation from
state of slavery and presented figures
to show that negroes in the Is Southern
States, including Missouri and leaving out
Maryland and Delaware, pay taxes on
S136,000,000 worth of property, the
largest amount being owned in Louisiana.
to the value of SIS, 100000, and the small
est in Virginia, to the amount of $4,000
600. Texas shows S1SOOO,OOO and Mis-
sissippi S13, 100000; South Carolina, ST.
100000; North Carolina, S11 ,O0O,0 600:
Georgia and Tennessee, each S10,4OO,OO0;

coo; Florida, $7,9O0,000; Missouri, &c.
100000; Kentucky, S5,900,000.
"Of course, while these are cOnsidera-
bic amounts, they are but small part
of the taxable property of those States
but they show up very favorably for the
negroes, and are an important promise
for the future. What is of particular
note in the speech of Mr.. Hill is the tone
of his expressions. He tells the negroes
that they must not expect the cOnstitu-
tons and laws of States to be brought
down to the level of their ignorance and
shiftlessness. Legislation should erect
high standards of morals and citizenship
and the people must rise to them. Ad
yancement and progress are imposed or
all the races that are amenable to civil
cation and no exception can be made il
favor of the negroes.
Mr.. Hills doctrine is sound and states
manlike, and administers an admirable
rebuke to those white and black dema
gogues that want to degrade the standar,
of citizenship to that of the most illiterat
tramp and pauper in the country"

WILL SUE FOR FREEDOM.

Georgetown, Tex, Jan. 7.-(Special.l-
Larkins Reynolds, an escaped convict
from the Huntsville penitentiary, was ar
rested at this place day or two ago by
Sheriff Purl and placed in the county Jail.
Immediately upon his arrest an apnlica-
ton for writ of habeas corpus was pre-
scented to Judge w. l.. Davidson of the
court of criminal appeals, who granted a
temporary writ, making the matter re-
turnable before the court of criminal APP
peals ut Dallas for determination on Fri
day, January 10. In the meantime, the
sheriff is ordered by the judge to hold
the prisoner subject to the orders of the
court. The grounds for the application,
rs stated in the petition, are as follows:
In 1884 Reynolds. jointly with one Moore,
was indicted in Bell county for theft of
hogs. Moore disappeared, but Reynolds
was tried. convicted and sentenced to the
penitentiary for two years. Subsequently
Moore was arrested and his case was
quashed. as it was ascertained by the
grand jury that presented it was composed
of II men. Another Indictment was re-
turned against Moore for the same of
Tense and he was tried and acquitted on
the facts. The hogs were proven to be
not Parker's. as alleged in the indictment,
but the property of Moore and that he
had authorized Reynolds to assist in gath
ering them.
Reynolds served five months in the pen
and then escaped. He has since been
ut liberty. Learning the above facts in
regard to his case he has reported the
same to the court and prays for an inves-
tigation. He states that he feels firmly
confident that he will be released from
Imprisonment as soon as the court de-
cides the case.

LOST HER MEMORY.

NEGRO PROGRESS

The New Orleans Picayune says: AN
event of some Importance yesterday was
the meeting at Memphis of negro repre-
sentatives from the various Southern
States to celebrate the anniversary of their

SUPERSTlT1OUS MOUNTAINS.
Among the natural wonders of the
Southwestern States of America are the
Superstitious mountains, which loom I'M
from the arid desert to the east of Salt
river valley. These mountains are so
curious that as long as Arizona has been
settled the Indians would have nothing
to do with them. In consequence they
are full of deer, ibeX, bear and other big
game. The Superstitious mountains rise
out of the level surface of the desert like
the pyramids of Egypt. On the crest of
this unique range, and in full view of the
rarifed atmosphere for an immense dis
lance. are hundreds of queer figures rep
resenting men in all attitudes. When
you first look you are sure they are men.
and when you turn your gaze again to
them, you are as absolutely certain as
you can be of anything. They represent
ball-thrOwers, men recumbent and con-
templatve, others starting in n foot race
and in every conceivable posture. They
are not real flesh and blood men, how,
overwhelming but stone syenite-yet moth
ing can convince the Indians and some
white men that they are not genuine.
They say they are real mortals turned

THE KENTUCKY METHOD.

The New York Tribune says: 'Thc
Kentucky method of roasting people
alive has about it primitive features like
those of early pig roastings, as related
by Charles Lamb. and is suggestive of
more expert endeavors yet to come which
may bring Kentucky up to the Texas
level But the Kentuckians show them
selves advanced beyond the prejudice of
sex in the matter of roasting. If they
have no woman whose wrongs they can
avenge on somebody at the stake, then
they will burn a woman to right some
mans wrongs. 1t all amounts to roast
ing, which is the main thing"

Treasurer Chas. McCarty opened the
reserve seat sale yesterday for the above
star, and informed n Statesman reporter
that there has not been such demand for
seats since Mr.. Richard Mansfield's en-
gagement when he played DR.. Jekel and
Mr.. Hyde, some seasons ago. Notwith-
standing the large advance sale of yester-
day, Charlie says he has some very
choice seats left and those who intend
seeing Salvini in one of the best produc-

season had better secure their seats to-
day to avoid the big rush Friday.

Mr.. Reed is not saying much, but all
the same, he is busily engaged in saw
ing wood" We hope we will be forgiven
for the expression, as it is the first time
we have ever used it. After all, saving
wood is very significant. The fellow is
obviously in earnest, and while he says
nothing, he is intent on accomplishing
his object. That is the matter with
Hannah, or Tom Reed.
