Tho Times on the Cuban Question—Kesults of the Tnternational Rifle Match. Lonpon, July 15, 1869. ‘The Times, in an article on the Cuban question, @aya:—The progress Of Spain toward an enligntened commercial policy will soon become a necessity; aud with more liberal tariff system it will be diftl- cult for her home produce to compete with Ameri- can, and she will be unable any longer to monopo- live the markets of the Antilles, Under these cir- curastences Cuba will become useless to Spain, and pride alone can lead her to hold on to @ dominion which is disputed in the teeth of the best Spanish troops. General Prim and otner statesmen are convinced that the separa- tion of Cuba is only a question of time. National honor prevents Spain from taking such a step as jong 84 tneurrection prevails; but when the island is pacified the natural dictates of reason ought to be ‘istened to. Cuba is valuable, Spain wants cash, anda purchaser i# at hand. Should the island be oanvassed a plediscitum would result in favor of an- nexation to the United States, The only serious question is, can the Americans at this moment afford the purchase money? It is for the advantage of both hemispheres that each should foliow ita own course, untrammelled by the interference of the other, Spain, like Russia and Denmark, may well consent to sell the remainder of her transatlantic possessions, It js only fortunate that she has any. thing left to sell. in the International Rife Match at Wimbledon Common the rifemen of Scotland were victorious, heating those of England and Ireland. serenaded Generals Debates in the House of Commons. —Midnight Jn the House of Commons this evening the irish Ohurch bill as amendea in the House of Lords came up for consideration, There wasa full attendance of members and the gaileries were crowded with spectators, Mr, Gladstone, on rising, was greeted with loud cheers by the hberals and with derisive shouts from the tory benches, He said with respect to the amend- ments which had been made to the bill that the sovernment proposed to restore tne preamble and the date of disestablisment, as they appeared in the original bill; they should agree to the amendments relating to curates’ annuities and to the protection of annuitants, with some mo- “ications; but all other amendments they should Oppose, with the single exception of the grant of half a million pounds in lieu of private benefactions mace before 1660, Mr, Disraeli followed. He said that although the abstract principles of the bili had been repeatedly discussed there had been little discussion on the de- tails of tts provisions, He hoped that the amena- ments made in the House of Lorda would receive the calm consideration of the Commons, Mr. Gladstone then moved that the House diga- ree to the preamble as amended. He ihought the mourrent endowment, which the Lords had in ven very different acheme from that of Mr. Pist, whioh contemplated an established Catholic Church aude by side with the Kstabiished Church, and under State control, Concurrent endowment, a» DOW understood, way towlly opposed , oe ‘Principies Bi Bago bil oh & Character entirely opposed the spirit of the tame. If the House could induced to agree to it, it was certain that the country, especially the would never sanction He appropriation of the surpius fu originally pro) |. With & previso preserving to Parliament contro! over them, Mr. Disraeli t ht the House ought to agree to the amended preamble. He asserted that the House of Lords did not desire the reservation of the surplus for purposes of concurrent endowment, and ridi- cwed the plan for its appropriation. He hoped the House would prevent such a use of the public funds, and not allow them to be dealt with in this lose and vague manner. Mr. Ball, member for Dublin University, thought the restoration of the original preamble would be fatal to the many advantages secured to the Church by the Lords. bs Mr, Bright admitted that at a former time he had proposed something like the present scheme of con- current endowment; but he declared that public feel- ing was now totally opposed to religious endow- ments, and no Miniater wouid be able to carry such & scheme. He felt that all the plans save the one originally proj by the bill was go full of ditficul- ties that it would be idle to discuss them. ‘Sir Roundell Paimer said, although not a supporter of concurrent endowment, he considered that, under the circumstances, the grants for residences to iM, and was of g5e8 clergy of the great majority could not be refused out of that fund, which, contrary to his ideas, they had declared was wrongfully from the great majorit and = used for the religious parposes of the minority. Unless some proposal of this kind was agreed to they would never establish religtous equality or satisfy the expectations of the Irish. yy should not allow their anti-Catholic premdices to refuse this small boon to the great majority. Tne House then divided, and the amendment of the House of Lords, with respect to endowments, was disagreed to by a vote of 346 against 322; majority tor the government 124, ‘The amendment in regard to the appropriation of the surplus funds was aiso disagreed to, by a vote of 246 against 164. Mr. Gladstone then moved the restoration of the original date—namely, the Ist day of January, 1871— for the dissolution of the legislative union ween the Churches of England and Ireland, and, after some discussion, the date was restored without a aviation. ‘The House then adjourned.
