Statistics of the Cuban War.

Prof. Arthur Codezo Vinageras, of
the Havana Academy of Sciences, has
compiled the vital statistics of the late
war Of Cuba with Spain. He does not
claim that it is absolutely accurate, but
that it is approximately SO. He esti-
mates the ear population of the ISL
and in the years 1S95-'9S us 1,546,0 600,
of whom 532 600 were colored. OF this
number 40 per cent. of whites and 70
per cent. of negroes We're illiterate.
The percentage of male to female was
"a to 4G. He estimates the number of
the Spanish army sent to Cuba during
this period as 234,OO0, and the number
Of Cubans fitted to take arms is 3G2,-
600. OF this number he finds that 1000
actually rose in arms, while 100000 re-
manned irresolute. The remainder, al
most 10000, went into exile. The num-
Der of armed Cubans killed during the
war was 10000 whites and 6,GOO ne
groes; of unarmed fighting men 11,iO0
whites and 10000 negroes. Weyler's

BILE, Prof. Vinageras estimates, for the
death by starvation and disease of 3S7,-
600 p-ersOns-men, women and chill
dren. OF this number 2O2, 1000 were
whites. The total loss of Cuban life
by the revolution was 41S,3OO. The
luton he estimates at 2S,6OO. The
total loss of the Spaniards was $4,000
in bnttle and 100000 by disease.

HANNleAL HAMLlN.
And How He Won the Name of .The
Carthaginian of Maine.O

Aud How He Won h Name of 'sThe
C~arthaginian of Maine."
Among the many stories of Ha1lin's
early experiences in the Maine Legisla-
ture none is more animated than his
tilt with John Holmes, interesting, be-
sides, because it gives the origin Of
"The Ca%rthaginian Of Maine," 3 name
that stuck to Hamlin through life.
Holmes had been in the United States
Senate, and at this particular time
writes General Hamlin. n member of
the State House of Representatives
was endeavoring to domineer over it.
"Hamlin disputed the leadership with
him, and Holmes attempted to crush
his young opponent by coarsely ridicul!

Hamlin jumped to his feet, and point

the gentleman chooses to find fault
with me for my complexion, what has
he to say about himself? 1 take my
complexion from nature; he gets his
from the brandy bottle. Which is
more ~honorable?'" This retort was
: greeted with great applause and cries
of go on!" Hamlin then continued
pointing his finger at Holmes: II will
also tell the member from Alfred that
he is more conspicuous for trying to
run dry shod over young men than for
trying to encourage them. y = y
But as long as they are true to them
selves and to nature, and as long as
the member from Alfred sticks to the
brandy bottle, they need not fear him."
AS soon as the cheers of the House
could be sufficiently silenced, Holmes
retracted his words and made a manly
apology. 1.-THE young Carthaginian
routed the old Roman" was one hui
morous comment on the incident, and
from that time Hamlin was thus fire.

The First News Sheet.

The first news sheets at all answer.
ing to our modern newspaper were is-
sued by order Of the Venetian govern
ment, about 1886. At first they were
simply written out, and exhibited to
public inspection on payment of a small
coin called a '~'gazetta," whence the
modern term Gazette" Afterward
the demand made 1t necessary to print
them. The first English newspaper of
which we have positive evidence was
the Weekly News, published by Ma
thaniel Butler in 1922. The English
Mercurie of 1888 is a forgery. 1t was
really printed about the middle of the
eighteenth century.-Roston Traveller.
