MIR. CLEvELAND'S FRIENDSHIP
FOR THE SOUTH.

Replying to some structures upon Mr..
Cleveland by contemporary, regarding
his course towards the South, the New
Orleans Picayune says
out of some forty and odd ministers
plenipotentiary and envovs extraordi-
nary sent by the President to foreign
countries, not less than one-rourth are
Democrats from these Southern States.
while in the Presidents Cabinet there are
four Southern men. counting Secretary
Carlisle. In the appointment of public
officers the South has enjoyed full
snare and more than its due, If the mere
question OF population be considered. and
there has been no President for half q
hundred years who has shown such kind
ness and regard for the Southern people
as has been done by Mr.. Cleveland"
Very much OF this is true, and upon
the whole President Cleveland has sub
stan:iaiGy recognized the South, but all
the same our contemporary Is in error
when it asserts that "the South has en-
Joyed more than its due" The South
mas always been unwavering in its sup
port of the Democracy of the country
and while there should be no complain.
OF the Presidents treatment of the
Southern people, and except in isolated
cases there Is none, yet the South Is en-.
titled to all the good things 1t can get.

We 60 our ways in life too much alone,
We hold ourselves too far from all our kind,
Too often we are dead to sigh and monn,
Too often to the weak and helpless blind,
Too often where distress and want abide

Whore lie the bruised ones that faint md
mourn

Our selfish hearts are for our feet the guide
They lead us by upon the other eide.
It should be ours the oil and wine to pour
Into the bleeding wounds Of stricken ones:
To take the smitten and the sick and sore
And bear them whore n stream OF blessing
runs.
Instead we look about--the way Is wide
And SO we pass upon the other side
o friends and brothers, gliding down the years,
Humanity is calling each and all
In tender accents, born of grief and tears!

CUBAN INDEPENDENCE.

1t is said that there is a movement on
foot on the part of Spain to offer the
Cubans home rule as the price Of lay
ing down their arms and ending the
war. but 1t is believed at Washington
that even this proposition will not salts
fy the patriots.
What they want is freedom, and past
experience teaches them that no faith
can be placed in promises from Madrid.
They had taste of this when the ten
years war was brought to a close in
1878 by an agreement that larg, meas
ure OF self-government would be ac-
corded them. That agreement was
never carried out, and they have no rea-
son to suppose that home rule will be
granted them now If they renew
their allegiance to the crown. Those
who seem TO be best familiar with the
views Of the patriots say that the propo-
sition of home rule, even if made, will
not be accepted. They say that the
time has passed for any such a sugges,
ton. and that they have scarcely less
faith In the Madrid Government ..an
in the Autonomist party in Cuba. from
which the proposition seems to have
eminaied. They say further that
those VINO are not for us are against
u.s. and are disposed to View the Auton-
Iomist very much in that light.
