WASHINGTON, Jan. 2O-The announce
ment of the appointment OF General Va
leriano Weyler as civil captain general Of
Cuba was received at Cuban headquarters
here as conflrmatory of the view they had
already expressed upon the nows of Cam
pos retirement that there has been q radi-
cal change in the policy of the Spanish
cabinet. and that hcncoforth there Is to bo
a reign of blood and terror in Cuba. The
change in the cabinet itself, in the retire
ment of the Duke of Tctuan and the sue
ocssiOn of Scnor Elbuaycn as minister of
foreign affairs is regarded as still further
confrmatory of this fact.
General Wcylor is % veteran soldier and
has had his own experience i'm revolutions,
for he followed the fortunes of the Spanish
army in Cuba for years during the last
revolution, with tho rank of cSonel, and
earned for himself a dreadful reputation
as a man Of blood and iron
Moreover, the Cuban leaders hero hint
at acts Of cruelty to women and defense
less prisoncrs~on his part in the past in q
fashion that augurs in for the rebels who
come within his power this time, and they
predict that he win soon become involved
in trouble with the United States govern
mont as the result of the III treatment Of
American citizens who may be unfortu-
nate enough to fall under suspicion.
General Weyler quilted Cuba soon after
the suppression Of the last rebellion and
has since dwelt in Spain, holc'Ag the i'm
portant command Of captain general of the
province of Catalonia.

BRUNSWICK GETS A MONITOR.
The Naval Reserves Secure the Pas

Brunswick, Ga, June 2.-Brunswick's
naval militia have secured the monitor
Passaic from the national government,
and it VIII be located permanently in
Brunswick The Passaic is an iron single
turreted monitor, mounted with two thir-
ty-two pound guns, is 200 feet long, 60
feet wide and will be used as a floating
armory. Unlimited enthusiasm prevails
in Brunswick over securing the war YES
sci, and another company OF naval mill
tia is being formed to-day, which will
complete the battalion, with Savannahs
two companies The scoop of the mont
tor reads well and is due greatly to John
e. duBignon. Three weeks ago he ap-
peared before the reserves and said the
tug Dauntless is now at Philadelphia I'M
dergOing repairs. If the monitor prom
ised to the reserves can be secured now
viii have the Dauntless tow 1t to Bruins
wick free of charge. l will also agree to
accompany any officer of the company TO
Washington TO get the monitor" The
company literally went wild over the
proposition and detailed Ensign Elliott
to accompany him. Publication of the
news was purposely suppressed tempo
rarily and Sunday the delegation left.
At Atlanta they obtained a requisition
from the state government on the navy
department and a strong letter from Gov.
Of the navy At Washington
they presented their documents to Assist
ant Secretary McAdoo, and were well re-
detailed TO accompany them to League
Island to inspect the monitors there
Commandant Longnecker assisted them
and two out of nine of them were found
in good condition. Secretary Herbert sug-
gested inspecting the PasSaic at Boston,
and the party acting upon this suggestion,
found that the monitor suited them bet
ter than the others. In the meantime the
Dauntess returned, but the monitor will
be brought as soon as some repairs are
made on her. Messrs. duBignon and Ell
lott returned to-day and Col duBignon
Immediately rendered the reserves free

truth that they were in a measure like
the disciples whom the Savior had sent
out to preach the gospel; that as Christ
had commanded them fully to give mas
much as they had fully received; so they,
as graduates of an Institution which had
been peculiarly cherished and honored,
should give freely Of what they received;
that the work of the institution was not
TO make new women" but to enable its
graduates to fill usefuly the God given
sphere which had been appointed to wO-
man from the foundation of the world.
After this address Hon. Patrick Walsh,
in his own genial way, delivered the
diplomas to the twenty-siX graduates,
Bidding them God speed in their life work.
