Tue l.Bl Pnh CraeHy The
Kecoitultlon or Cubit.
Tbb latest Intelligenoe from Havana affords
a new illustration of the brntallty of the
Spanish offioials who misgovern Cuba. A
fleet of transports, with many state prisoners
on board, was despatched on the 20th, under
the convoy of a Spanish frigate, to the in3a
lobrions and inhospitable shores of Fernando
To. This island is near the coast of Africa,
and the doomed Cuban patriots are consigned
to a fate more dreadful than instant
death. When the Spaniards attempted to
colonise it, near the close of the last century,
they were repelled by the natives, who num.
ber about 10,000 or 12,000, and whose hostility
to the unhappy beings consigned to their
shores may be not unnaturally anticipated.
But even if the Cuban patriots esoape mas
saore, and survive the maltreatment of their
captors, they can scarcely hope to avoid fatai
disease. At one time the British attempted to
ooloniae the Island, but they were oompelled
to withdraw their garrison on aooount of the
fearful inroads of fever among the soldiers,
and a majority of the British colonists fell
victims to the same fell destroyer, so that it
is a well-attested fact that the climate is fatal
to the white race.
This barbarous polioy cannot fall to exer
cise great influence in strengthening the sym
pathy already felt in this country for the
Cuban revolutionists. It gives a new proof
that the Spanish cause is not only bad and
brutal, but desperate, for such cold-blooded
cruelty is the aot rather of frightened cowards
trembling with the fear that they are on the
ve of downfall, than the deed of men oon
bcIous of their strength and confident of the
perpetuation of their power.
As the proposition to authorize the Presi
dent to recognize Cuba whenever she esta
blishes a de facto government is under serious
consideration at Washington, there should not
be a moment's further delay on the part of
Congress in passing the resolution offered by
General Banks. It has become vitally neces
sary as an aot of humanity and justioe, a
well as a wise measure of governmental polity.
The Cuban oause, in the present crisis, has
irre lfitible claims upon the friendly aid of the
American people. The revolution was begun
Six months ago. Struggling at first without
arms or ammunition of approved pattern,
rude weapons were made of the peouliar
woods of the island; but the movement com
menced under so many difficulties so warmly
enlisted the popular sympathy, that at this
moment, we are informed on reliable autho
rity, the revolutionists have In the field at
least twenty-five thousand men well armed
and equipped, and their General-in-chief in
his recent appeal claims that they have 70,000
men doing duty. They have not only
gained and held possession of a large
portion of the territory of Cuba,
but have suooessfully encountered
the Spanish troops in many engagements;
and It must be remembered that, notwith
standing the reports forwarded from time to
time, under the surveillanoe of jealous autho
rities, of partial Spanish triumphs, the
patriots steadily maintain their ground, and
practically govern nearly all the regions not
in the immediate vloinity of well-garrisoned
cities. At first the revolution was spontaneous,
and different leaders maintained sway in
different departments, but unity of aotion is
now established, and the national energies
are consolidated under the direction of a
Supreme Junta and a single commander-in-chief.
This outbreak would never have gained
such formidable proportions if it had not been
aided and enoouraged by an immense majority
of the population, approaching a unanimity
only broken by the dissent of a horde of
Spanish officials, and a few citizens of Spanish
birth, who espouse the oan&e of the noma
oountry from pride of race and origin. It
deserves our sympathies ou every ground. It
is based, at the outset, on aspirations Identicil
with those which inspired cur revolutionary
ancestors to throw off the tyrannical yoke ol
Great Britain, and there is great foroe as well
as truthfulness in the declaration of Genera;
Cespedes that the patiiots are resisting a
foreign power which seeka to crush them to
the earth, and which, with no appeal but that
of arms, persists in appointing tyrannioal
eltiaena of its own oountry to rule and eat up
the aubstanoe of the Cubans. They have
groaned under the pressure of onerous "taxa
tion without representation" for centuries,
and their remonstrances have only served to
intensify their sufferings.
Aside from this aspeot of the struggle, the
revolutionists have boldly unfurled the flag of
emancipation, and while they stand forth as
the foes of every form of slavery, the
Spaniards persist in the maintenance of bond
age alike over the black and white men of the
island. It is a square fight for freedom for ail
on the one hand, against tyranny over all,
except the few favorites of the oppressors, on
the other.
When the Spanish American republics
began the movement which finally resulted in
the downfall of Spanish fule everywhere on
the mainland, Great Britain displayed not only
great readiness in recognizing the very first
organisation of the revolutionists, but in grant
, . aArll aid, wf every jLrwif Uu, In
view of the exoitlng events now transpiring
In Cuba, this oountry is morally bound to
Imitate this example as olosely as
she can without committing a flagrant viola
tion of the law of nations.
The Cubans not only desire to be free, but
the next dearest wish of their, leaders is to
seek protection and future prosperity under
the star gemmed banner of our own Repub
lic; and in aiding them to demolish the
Spanieh yoke our own national interests
would be promoted, alike by the extension
of our commerce and the probable annexa
tion of one of the most fertile portions of the
earth.
Free Speech in Oermitnr,
Bismatk is usually considered a conservative
and an upholder of the prerogatives of royalty,
but it la a significant fact that the results of
his polioy have been to stimulate the
growth of liberal ideas in all parts of
Germany. From the defeat of Austria
and the consolidation of North Germany
came the pacification of Hungary, the ab'
rogation of the Concordat, and the legalization
of civil marriages in Austria; and the absorp
tion of the petty German States and princi
palities by l'russia has done much to encou
rage those who have esteemed the idea of a
united Germany as a hopeless dream. Not
long since the North German Parliament
granted the largest freedom of debate to all
the diets of the oonfederaoy, and we are
happy to believe that this is but a
step towards extending still further
the bounds of free speech. Austria, which ap
pears to be engaged at present in a generous
rivalry with Prussia to keep up with the
liberal spirit of the age, has just made a simi
lar advance in the right direction. The oable
announces that a royal decree has just been
published establishing trial by jury for
offenses against the press law. This is a very
great concession from what has been consi
dered as one of the most illiberal and despotio
governments in Europe, and will do much
towards building up a great free press, and
causing that general diffusion of intelligenoe
which is essential to the prosperity of any
nation at the present day.
In contrast with the example of Prussia and
Austria, we see in France Napoleonism bind
ing the chains of despotism firmer than ever.
The Emperor appears to be aware of the fact
that his popularity h on the wane, and as the
signs of the times indioate that the fate of his
dynasty is becoming more and more unoertaln
every day, his efforts to perpetuate his power
and secure the succession to the imperial
throne for his sou have something of the im
potent energy of despair. The King of Prussia
and the Emperor of Austria have chosen the
wiser part in recognizing the rights of the
people, and they will be better prepared to
withstand the shook of the revolution whioh
now seems to be impending in France, and
which, if it comes, will annihilate the Bona
partes. linbics,
I'laiio-Fortcs,. autl
Mikchloca.
It is not our fault if people who have been de
nied the usual amount of common sense will
persist in buying and reading Thb Eve.nisgi
Tkleabafu. That such people do buy and
read it we infer from a communication sent us
a day or two since by an individual styling
himself a "subscriber." We print the com
munication in question verbatim, as follows:
"Cun you induce tne Legislature to pass a law
to allow a man tue Advantage of me three
hundred dollar exemption law, and oue hun
dred dollais for every child beside, and making
it invalid to waive that right In any Instance?
Also, to exempt a ewlng-machineiroin seizure
for debt? ALd If you could induce them to ex
empt a piano that has bten purchased by in
stalments, or any other way, s ou would be
doing an act of charity, particularly to the un
fortunate." From this it will be seen that our "sub
scriber" is not altogether what was called in
old times a "natural." He evidently has
either been to Harrisburg in his own proper
person, or has studied carefully the reports of
legislative doings, for he appears to be firmly
grounded in the belief that our law-makers
can be induced to do almost anything, espe
cially in the way of exempting certain favored
interests from all the burdens and liabilities
that should attaoh to them for the eommon
welfare. If we should take it into our head
to induct our law-makers to provide forguaglng
the amount of property to be exempted from
seizure by the number of infants in a family,
what an extraordinary increase in the popu
lation of the State would be witnessed when
we are permitted to look over the next census
returns ! And what a thrill of dismay would
prostrate the corner grooeryman when he
glanced over bis acoounts and saw that Bump
kins, whose bill had been running up for a
whole year without a settlement, oonld defy
the constable because he is the father of a
round dozen of children, with a proBpeotlve
annual inorease of one as long as the sturdy
companion of his bosom should be spared to
him I
Then what an impetus would be given to
the traffic in sewing-machines ! Every family
oi limited resources would forthwith order one
of these useful instruments, the bill to be
collected on delivery. But let the good wife
once get her clutches upon the patent stitcher!
The credulous agent who struck a bargain
with her would then discover how egreglously
he had been swiudled. He would rush before
an alderman with his claim, only to listen to
the goodwife as she declared, under oath,
that all her household traps oomblned, in
cluding the confiscated sewing-machine, are
not worth more than Ave hundred dollars
while her property exemption is swelled to
a ronnd thousand by virtue of her having been
seven times a motner i
Bo, also, with the "unfortunate" people
who own pianos, "purchased by instalments
or any other way." Pay down your first
instalment, cart your Instrument home, and
then defy the collector and the sheriff I If you
are so fortunate as to have been "unfortn
' nate," your wife can open a shirt store and
)W IuV.Ut gir Ui9Hi ill JUMio, witfiout
a oreditor darkening your door, and without
the prattle of a half soore of youngsters dis
turbing the oomplaoenoy of your happily "un
fortunate" soul We advise our "subscriber"
to oonsult MoKinstry, the legislative genius
who is now moaning over the cinders of his
Bucks county barn. Suoh a delioate task as
engineering this baby-exemption law through
the Legislature should not be entrusted by
him to the hands of bunglers like Henszey
ana uavis.
A PimcnUr with VeuoEtieln
Thb bo called Republic of Venezuela does not
appear to regard the obligations of treaties
and its plighted word as of any speoial con
sequence. A few days ago a budget of cor
respondence between ex-Secretary Seward and
a speoial agent of the Venezuelan Government
was sent to the Senate, from which these facta
appear. In April, I860, a convention for the
settlement of certain claims of American oltl
zens against the Venezuelan Government was
entered into between the two countries.
Claims amounting in the aggregate to 84,800,-
000 were presented to the commission ap
pointed under this convention, of whioh
amount $1,250,000 were allowed, it being
stipulated that this sum should be paid by
Venezuela to our Government, for distribution,
in ten equal instalments. Some time sinoe
the first instalment of $125,000 fell due, ao
oording to the above stipulation; yet It has
not been paid, and the speoial agent of Vene
zuela now in the United States has instruc
tions to ignore entirely the award of the com
mission. The Senate Committee on Foreign Affairs
have had the subject under consideration, and
it is understood that they are prepared to
make a report in favor of demanding from
Venezuela a strict compliance with the terms
of the treaty. In faot, no other course is left
open for us to pursue. Venezuela for years
was the best regulated of all the South Ame
rican republios, enjoying comparative peace
at home and a fair share of respeot abroad. But
a year or so ago a disaffection against the Gov
ernment of Marshal Falcon manifested itself,
resulting in his expulsion from the country.
Since that event, the republio has fallen
into the anarohioal state which appears to be
so congenial to South Amerioa; and now we
are made, by this attempt at repudiation, to
experience the consequences. But neither the
interests of our oitizens nor the dignity of our
Government can suffer the de facto authorities
of Venezuela to inaugurate with us this favo
rite line of South American diplomacy. The
sooner the committee make their report, and
the Government takes a decided stand, the
better. A few sharp blows at the outset will
save a great deal of wrangling in the future.
The Atlantic Cable informs us this morn
ing that the question concerning the property
of the Italian clergy has been definitely set
tled. But not a word is vouchsafed concern
ing the manner of settlement, and we must
await advioes by mail for about ten days,
before we can get at the particulars. If the
man who fixes up the cable telegrams in Lon
don had been favored with a petty horse-race,
his pen would have been much more prolific,
and a great lot of twaddle of not the slightest
interest to the people of this oountry would
have been sent over the cable, regardless of
expense
