The Other side.

Senator Hale of Maine, on Monday
last discussed the Cuban resolutions from
a standpoint widely different from that
occupied by the friends Of the Cuban
cause, and we are bound to admit that
his argument was decidedly damaging
to the doctrine promulgated by those
resolutions. While it was palpably the
argument Of the attorney skilled in law,
who realizes that on certain points his
position is impregnable, yet withal, i!
failed to impress one with the belief that
he was as deeply concerned to see right
done, as to win bis case. Although we
believe that be proved The correctness
of his position very much more certain
ly and clearly than have those who ia
vor giving belligerent rights to Cuba,yet
we shall be greatly surprised, if, as re-
suit, we find as many as a half.dozen
votes are added to the half dozen re-
corded first against the resolutions.
