Gen. Shafter in his letter to Garcia ex-
presses regret that General Garcia should
have felt slighted or aggrieved. He
says:
"You will remember the fact that l
invited you to accompany me into the
town OF Santiago to witness the surren-
der, which you declined"
The invitation was probably by word
of mouth, for Shafter is not up in form
alities, and no doubt Garcia is a pune.
tilious Spanish Don. General Shafter
very correctly says to him:
"This war, as you know, is between
the United States and Spain, and 1t is
out Of the question for me to take any
action with regard to your forces in con-
nectlon with the surrender, which WAS
solely made to the American army"
This puts the whole thing in the righ I
shape, and without circumlocution
General Garcia ought not to be foolish.

Garcia's army was IN a deplorable con.
dition as to clothing when they reached
our camp, and in need Of food supplies
and other things. General Lawton says
they came "as ragged as Falstafi's Gads-
bill force, but after clothing and arms
had been Issued to them you would
never know the clean, alert, ready man
OF to-day, who brings his piece up
smartly I the salute as pass, as the
ragged. half-starved, wholly dirty refu.
gee who constituted the so-called army
under Garcia"

Spanish administration in Cuba has
been that of restriction and oppression,
aud vast revenue has been the result
The most unreasonable protectlonist
would hardly defend the restrictions
imposed upon trade, all to benefit Span
ish industry and Spanish trade. Strong
diflerentials in favor of Spanish products
completely excluded those Of other ma
tions, and obliged the people Of Cuba to
obtain from the mother country at a
high price articles which might have
been obtained CT better quality and
cheaper from the United States. Amer
lean merchants could not find in Cuba a
market for their goods and hence could
not deal with Cubsns as they otherwise
would have done. Our people there.
fore bought sugar in Germany and the
British West Indies where they found q
market for our food products. Here.
after it is hoped trade with Cuba and
Porto Rico will not be hampered so as
to be preventive. These islands are
very productive, and with peace and
free and fair opportunities they will
prosper as they ought to and so will be
to us valuable neighbors.

MANILA,s CAPTURE.
The Philippine Capital Was Taken
by the English During the
Last Century.

Manila has been once captured from
Spain. The English were its captors,
although they held it only for few
months. 1t was In 1862, few weeks
after the English capture OF Havana.
hpain had been rash enough to side
with France in the war usually known
in this country as the French and In
dian war. She was speedily punished
for IL.
The expedition against Manila was
the plan of Col. William Draper, after
ward baronet and a lieutenant general.
He was made brigadier general for the
expedition and put in command, with
Admiral Cornish as his naval ally. The
expedition was fitted out and started
from Madras, India. There were nine
ships, and land force OF $500 men.
including one English regiment, with
Sepoys and marines.
On September "a, 1862, these forces
were disembarked just south Of fManila.
The archbishop of Manila, who was also
governor general Of the islands, col
leeted and armed some 10000 natives
as a reinforcement to the Spanish gar
rison of 800. During the progress Of
the siege, some daring attempts were
made by the British TO prevent the
further construction Of defenses. but
the assailants were repulsed with greaA
slaughter.
A desperate sally was made by q
strong body OF natives, who "ran furi-
ously on the ranks of the besiegers and
fought with almost incredible ferocity,
and many of them died, like wild beasts,
gnawing with. their teeth the bayonets
by which they were transfxed."
On October 8 breach was effected
in the Spanish works, the English car
ried the city by storm, and gave itup
for several hours TO the ravages of
merciless soldiery. The Archbishop and
the others had retired TO the citadel,
but this could not be defended, and n
capitulation was agreed upon by which
the city and port of Manila, with several
ships and the military stores, were suy-
rendered, while for their private prop
erty the Spanish agreed TO pay as a ran
som $20O0,00O in coin and the same in
bills on the treasury at Madrid. This
last obligation was never paid.
A day or two after the capture came
news of a rich prize for Admiral Cor
nish. He had started eastward with n
frigate and a ship of the line to intercepi
a treasure ship. This he did not find,
but he fell in with and captured Span
ish galleon bound from Manila o Aca-
pulco, Mexico, with a cargo valued Of
$4,000, ,O00.-Boston Transcript.
