RETRIBUTION.

. Ambrose Bierce has this to say Of
a clear case of tetribution:
Persons keeping a lookout for the
more things in heaven and earth than
are dreamed of in the philosophy of
less sharp observers may possibly
find something significant IN these
facts. In 1872 more than fifty Ameri
a citizens, captured on the hllibus-
ter "Virginius," were brutallv shot
to death by Spanish officials, their
bodies mutilated, subjected to public
indignities and finally tumblei, some
OF them half alive, into a pit of quick
lime by way of Christian burial.
This occurred at Santiago de Cuba
and Was fifty celebrated by a bull
fight and other characteristic ~reioic-
ings. The remnant of the 'Virgin-
lus" crew was saved by a British
naval officer, who hastily and with
out orders sailed from Kingston, ia
maca, and threatened to turn his guns
upon the Cuban town. The people of
the United States demanded war with
Spain; Mr.. Hamilton Fish, Secretary
OF State, demanded release of ship
and survivors and a salute to orr
dag! By an ingenious policy of Dip
lomatlc controversy and procrastina-
ton he held the American hand from
the Spanish throat until anger had
cooled to disgust and softened to in
difference; then he secured peace
with shame.
The first American soldier to fall
in Cuba in General Skaters advance
against Santiago de Cuba was Ham
ut on Fish, grandson of that shame
less Minister of State. A ''coinci-
dence," possibly; yet I am of those

NO THANKS FOR HIM

Ten days have passed since the
Spanish feet was so gloriously de-
stroyed off Santiago and the admin
'stfatlon has not yet found out who
won the victory.
No one received the thanks of Con-
gress for that victory.
No one has been promoted for that
victory:
The Admiral of the squadron has
sept no report stating who was in
command during his absence.
The whole country knows who won
that glorious victory. The Whole
country rings with the name of Win
field Scott Schley. The only men
who have not fastened to do him
honor are the pee-wee statesmen who
hate him because he first despised
them, who Inundated him and would
have degraded him, and who cannot
conceal their chagrin that so much
glory and renown has fallen to his
share.-Stockon Mail.

Soon after the arrival of the wars
ships off Cienfugos. four boats were
launched, and proceeded in shore
for the purpose of graphing for the
cable in order to cut it. The war
ships lay to about 1 900 yards or more
off the harbor. 1t was observed tina
the Spanish troops had assembled
ashore, but 1t was not known that
heavy guns had been placed in a
masked battery and that the light
house far out on a neck of land, had
been transformed into a formidable
fort.
The shore surrounding the entrance
of the harbor was first shelled, and
and then the boats proceeded In.
The work of finding the cable was
slowly and cautiously proceeded with.
The cable was deep in the channel
and found with difficulty.
One of the relays of the Gable had
been cut when the Spaniards opened
fire. The marines in the boats repli-
ed at once, and machine gun from
the forward launch sent stream OF
bullets, while heavy shells from the
war ships drove the Spaniards from
the rifle pits at the shore, many OF
them seeking refuge in the light.
house font, which was afterwards
torn to pieces by q shell from the
Window. AS there were great num-
bers Of Spaniards in and behind the
fort at The time, there is no doubt
that many of them were killed.
Their Object accomplished.
With desperate courage the Ame-
rican soilors remained camly at their
post and succeeded in dragging up
the second relay Of The cable and
severing it.
On the Nashville, Captain May.
nard was standing forward, with an
ensign, when Spanish bullet passed
through the ensign's shoulder and
struck Maynard on the chest near
the eart,wounding him only slightly
The Marblehead was struck scores
of times by bullets from machine
guns, and the Nashville suffered to
about the same extent.
