THE EXPECTED SEA BATTLE.

In a few days there will be another
clash of American and Spanish ships oil
war. Leaving Martinique, the cape
Verde feet sailed westwardly. 1t was
seen Yesterday about one hundred miles
of the Venezuelan coast. Leaving san
Juan. Simpsons feet sailed northwest
wardly. Yesterday he communicated
from Puerto Plata with the American
Consul at Cape Haitien, on the Island Oh
Santo Domingo.
That island and a good deal Of water
separate the hostile vessels, but Samp-
son may take the Windward Passage
and soon be close upon the heels or the
enemy. Meanwhile. our flying squadron
is well on its way TO the south, and VIII
probably be on hand for effective work
there. though IT seems 1t is to lose some
time by coaling at Charleston.
1t is improbable that the Cape Verde
feet is bound for Habana. If so, it is
taking a roundabout route, and may
have Sampson DIGGING 1t all the way
while 1t flies full in the face of Schley.
IL is more likely that ii means to run
into Cienfuegos or is bent upon threat
ening some Of our Gulf ports. 1t is now
an the Caribbean Sea, which, while by
no means as expansive as the Atlantic,
Is a pretty broad piece of water. Our
fleets may not find it for some days TO
come. but find it they will, sooner or
later And when il is found it Will nave
10 fight. We cannot doubt what the re-
suit will be-especially if Schley and
Sampson are able 10 unite before the
issue is joined. We do not expect such
an easy victory as we had at Manila,
but we believe the enemy will be COM
pletely overwhelmed.
Our operations at San Juan, Cardenas,
and Cienfuegos appear TO have been pre-
mature. While we have undoubtedly in
flicted considerable injury upon the forth
fications of those towns, so far as the
public can see the plan of campaign has
not been advanced thereby. However,
our gunners have now had much practice
and IL may be that we have inspired in
the Spaniards very wholesome fear
of our craftsmanship. 1t is to be pre-
sumed that the belligerency of our ves-
sells has encouraged the Insurgents to be
very active. No doubt they are torment
ing the Spaniards on land as much as we
are tormenting them on water.
Preparations still continue for the in
vasion of Cuba, but it is certain that no
start will be made until the sea battle
has been fought And then 1t may not be
necessary

FIRST AND LAST GUNS.

Here we are in the midst Of new
war. though we have not yet succeeue'
in settling two important questions WIN
respect to the great struggle Tor sou'h-
ern independence.
II has never been determined beyond
cavil who was the first Confederate SUI
der killed In 1861. Nor has 1t been deter
mined who fired the last gun In that war
There were number OF our soiu'ei ;
killed by the enemy before the battle Oh
Big Rethel was fought, but the D''-
match is In the habit OF saying tna'
"vsung wyatt was the first Confederate
LnIed IN line of battle" in 1861. ABOUT
that fact we think there can hardly DO
any DISPUTE. Men had fallen In our cause
before that day; but we think wyatt was
Oh. first 70 meet death where tho con-
tending forces stood in battle array
rho first American blood shed In TINS
war was at Manila. where some OK COM
modore Dewey's men were wounded Inc
first of our men killed was at Cardehas'
where five lost their lives simultaneous
~ by the explosion amongst them OF
Soanish shell. No one Is able 10 say
which Of these was the first to die. But
unouestionably young Bagley was the
frst-and up to this time the only
American officer to be killed In this war
And Bagley, like Wyatt, was from North
Carolina.
That much OF this wars history we
have correct, certainly. Now let us
watch and see who fires our last gun;
the boom" that is to usher In Spain
suit for peace.
Yes: that last gun is the music we
wish TO hear, but we do not expect 1t I'M
til we have disposed OF the Cape VERDE
feet. When we shall have sunk or dis
persed that modern Armada, nothing
will remain for Spain to do but TO ask
for terms She will then be powerless 10
defend her own home cities, to say no
thing of her Cuban and other Colonial
cities. What would be the sense Of Ha-
bana's holding out longer then? Sol
diers and citizens there are already on
very short rations, and in few weeks
they will be upon the point OF starvation
Blanco Is holding out now. hoping for re-
lief through the fundamentally or the
Cape Verde fleet. That is his only hope!
That is the only rift in the clouds over
hanging him; all else is darkness.
The Dispatch does not expect uninter-
rupted success to follow our arms.
Doubtless. we shall have disappoint-
ments; doubtless we shall have reverses,
like that at Cardenas, but these will only
anger our people the more and cause
them to put forth greater strength. In
the end-which we believe TO be not re-
mote-Spain will have to beg for peace
Nor need she trust to active foreign IN
PREVENTION in her behalf. SO long as Eng
land is our friend the continental Powers
will give Spain unlimited supplies of adj
vice and sympathy, but no actual help.
And so we are DESTROYS Of hearing the
last gun Of this war; the gun that will
announce our work done, our victory
complete, and that will give leave TO
our volunteers to break camp and return
to the pursuits of peace, bringing with
them good stores of experience and
fresh stock of veterans "reminiscences.

One of our State exchanges remarks
that it would be perfectly feasible TO
make sugar out of sorghum, which is so
successfully raised in Virginia, and thus
solve the problem of how TO save the
sum paid out annually for sugar.
That strikes us as rather sly way of
stirring up among eX-Confederates re-
collections of dyspepsia qualms calcu-
lated to make them lighting mad in this
crisis.
But our contemporary could have made
assurance double sure in respect Of this
matter by rounding off Its article with
a little dissertation on the deliciousness
of Nassau pork.

FOREIGN ALLIANCES.

The reference of Joseph Chamberlain,
British Colonial Secretary, 10 an Anglo
Saxon alliance, over which the Stars
and Stripes and the Union Jack would
wave together, is Offset, so to speak, by
the suggestion Of Henri Rochefort, that
Spain and Italy become republics 80 as
10 join France in a triple Latin alliance
against a probable Anglo-American and
German alliance.
We regard the discussion of either Of
the suggested alliances as at present
academic unless our people shall become
so inoculated with the virus of land
grabbing as to lead us 10 repudiate our
assurances regarding our object in going
10 war with Spain, and by holding on TO
the Philippines. cut loose from the Mon
roe doctrine. Ia the event OF that con-
summation, which is most devoutly not
to be wished, and which IS being an
tagonized by the majority Of the more
conservative papers of the country, we
would inevitably be drawn into the vortex
of European diplomacy. and from com
mercial. as well as race considera-
tons. would naturally drift into closer
relations with Great Britain. And as we
said the other day. a policy of Asiatic
territorial aggrandzement on cur part
would tend TO expand the great question
OF the balance OF power OF Europe into
the greater question OF the balahce Of
power OF the world.
This would mean a readjustment of
European alliances, and 10 view OF the
spirit Of revolution manlfesting itself IN

The bride and groom have been engaged
