We need scarcely etate that all letters pass ing through the Spanish ninl post offices are supposed t ned, and that cons« quently none Wkely to be retained are in trusted to ii Although the social position of the Porto Rieers Lae not been of late years, perhaps, quite so low as that of the Cubans, their po litical status bas been on a par. In the first place, the slave trade was effectually stopped Jong ago by the Porto Ricans themselves, who steadfastly refused to buy any smuggled Africans. Emancipation hea also b gradually and steadily increasing among them. In a total population of some 600,000 souls, there are but 40, 000 slaves, and of these not more than 10,000 are field hands, The total num ber of free laborers, white and colored, on the estates amounts to some 75,000. 4 very fact of white men working in the fields alongside the negro, while proving the pos sibility of successfully raising tropical pro @ucts without slave labor, has not becn without its beneficial effect upon the con- dition of the slave, If, however, the sociul condition of the Porto Ricans, due mainly to their own determined efforts to suppress slavery, be somewhat superior to that of the Cubans, the military despotism of Spain, which this present outbreak is destined to overthrow, bas ever becn the same crushing incubus on both islands. While regretting the incendiarism, assn éination, aud the general reign of terror whieh. our advices state have been inaugurated in Ponce, the movement and its object in no wise surprise us, The Porto Ricans are of course well aware that the Captain-General of Cuba cannot spare a single man, and it is not improbable that, even could reinforce ments be sent from Spain—an almost impos. sible event—Porto Rico would be entirely free from the Spanish yoke long before their advent. Wo anticipate, however, no such caso. Lato advicvs from Spain inforin us that the revolution—a revolution whose sole object was to create @ vacuum on the throne—will very probably be followed by a civil war be fore that vacunm is filled.
