Mr. Fist statee—he docs not write under his own nome, but anonymously—that there ig now no war in Cuba “of eufficient magni tude to warrant thie recognition of Loth partics to it as Leiligerents.” “Tho insur- rection has at no period been thoroughly organized and powerful.” “The venture was regretted by a large body of wealthy and influential Cubans who Mave never given the movement enthusiastic aid.” All of which is as truly Spanish as if it had pro. coeded dircetly from an agent of the Spanish Government, and not from the father-iulaw of euch an agent, Bat fortunately for the truth, tho real state of the case in Cuba is set forth in the World atthe very side of ali this talsehood. On the very same page with Mr. Fist's mani festo, the correspondent of that journal at Havana characterizes the recent repulse of Gen, PUELLO’s army in its attempt upon Gua'maro and Sibanich os “a hard blow to the Spaniards, and the most important vic- tory of the war for the Cuban The samo writer describes a recent battle near Las ‘'unas as “the hardest fighting of this war, some of it surpassing in its bloody results the most stubborn contests in the late American civil war.” The combat on this cecasion lasted during three days, the oljvct contended for Leing # Spanish convoy of pro- visions, The narrative of the correspondent ip very impressive : “Tle battalios of Espafia, in the march to Las ‘Tunas, formed the advance gnard of the Spanisi ex: pedition, and experienced losses that I will now aver were never experienced by any Federal or Con feaerate regiment on a three days’ fizot.

Pany. ‘Ibis is unprecedented, I believe, At least during my four and a half ycars’ we ave rervice in tue American civil war, I heard of nothing in the way of Federal or Confederate i to eqanl it. The Beaviest jose in officers during that war for a tingle baitle of one, two, or three davs' duration, that T know of, was that of a regiment ut tw pattle of Aptietem (Sharpsburg), which bad twenty-lour @fMficers killed and wounded out of twoniy-seven, tnd came out with a ‘ow of ite sergeants unharmed, While the Spanish battalion, roncmbor, had al of {te officers und sergeante either kilied or wounded, OF courte, It necessarily follows tuat the battalion Jost at the same time a very large proportion of ite eorporals ana privates.” ‘This is the sort of belligerency whic! Mr. Fien—speaking: the sentiments not of the American people, but of Spanish slave tra ders and oppressors—pronounces insuflic.ent to “warrant recognition of both parties as delligerenta.” It is not enough for lim that here is an American people, our fricn 1s and neighlors, struggling for liberty and inde pendence in away described by their ene- mies asthe World describes this battle. This will not satis’y the requirements of this American Secretary of Siate, administering hie office in the interest of Spanish tyranny Indeed, we don't know what it is that Mr. Fran requires of the Cubans—or rather wo do know. Ho would have them lay down their arms, submit patiently to the intolerable wrongs whieh Spain has for conturics inflicted on their beautiful Island, consent to the refstablishment of flavery and the slave trade, bow their necks to the yoke, and pray forgiveness from their tyrants. That would probably antisfy the inmost soul of avy Sponish agent whatever But we can tell Mr. Prsit that he is doomed to Litter disappointment, ‘The war in Cuba will cont nue till his allios, the Spanish slave traders, aro driven fron American soil, The bankrupt rulers of Spain are now making their last effort there, Their exhausted troasury cannot be forced to pay the expenses of sending troopa to Cobain th place of those now so rapidly consumed Of the loan which they sold last year for fourteen cents on the dollur—fity millions of obligations yielding nominally but seven millions in cash—only one-quarter haa really been dispowd of. They cannot borrow au ether cont anywhere in Europe. ‘The reve: puce of the Spanish Treasury have not since the revolution paid one half the daily ex penses of the Spanish Government. In short the suljagetion of Cuba by Spain is impos sible, much more so than was the ent jngation of the United States by England in 1782 ‘The present is the Inst serious campaign of the Culan war; and notwithstanding the powerful aid which Mr, Stoney Wensten Mr. Fien, Mr. Staixien, and Gen, ¢ have given to the cnuse of Spain and slavery Dat one result is now poes ble, Cula will | Le independent, through the efforis of her own ona; and the United States will bear the shame of having opposed instead of aid RANT ing #0 glorious a work, and will Lear it in vain —— Will the British Colonies be Cast OM ¢ | It is tapessille to yrnore the fact that the triditic Enjland toward her radienl change. ‘The leading statesmen of the vty make nvietion that the colonies aro no longer a Rource of srenzth to the mother country, to her, they aro an injury, ond they separatid ax soon as may be. ‘The ont ent is expressed alike by members of Mr Giaveront's Cabinet and by their deputics 1n the colonies, ‘Thus, soon af Youxa Mad rece ved hie te Governor-General of al poley of @rlonics is undergoing ruling no reret of their & Instead of being a benef or Sir Joun Appolatyient the Canadian chief representative of royalty in North Anicrica, he found occasion to inform that embryo nation that it already had “its destinies in its own hands, and its statesmen and people are recoynized as competent to judge of their interests, and of what course to pursue to reconcile those interests.” “ England,” continued the Governor-General, “looked to them for her guidance ; and what- ever their decision might be, whether to con- tinue their present connection, or in duetime to exchang» it for some other form of alli- ance,” “the good faith and intelligence of England will be prepared to accede to their wishes.” This was speaking plainly enough ; but to make everything certain, his Excel- lency went on to declare that “the choice of this measure rested entirely with the people and statesmen of Canada. These assurances alone would suffice to prove the liberal intentions of the present British Government. But this new policy will not be carried into effect withont a struggle. he Tory lenders in England, perceiving the timidity, incompetence, and confusion which have from the first pro- vailed in Canada, are taking advantage of it to organ'ze in England and ia Parliament an active if not a strong oppos.tion avainst the chanje proposed. The London Times, the weathereock of English public opinion, which fors time advocated the ideas of the jadstone Cabinet, is already veering away in a different direction; and Earl Gna. vine, the Colonial Minister, while he as. serts that England “will never attempt to retain the colonics by brute fe still hesi- tates, and resorts to ambiguity where he it to speak dee sively On the other hand, Sir Groner Gury, himself repeatedly a Colonial Governor un- der a Tory Adininistration, proclaims that “the breaking up of England's colonial empire will be a calamity to both the colo- nies and the mother country.” Sir Gror however, admits that the present policy “is no doubt in accordance with what is now the prevailing opinion in Parliament ;" but he evidently thinks that this Parliamentary opinion can be made to change, if it ean be clearly shown that the colonists themselves are not prepared for the responsibilities of an independent national exist On this ground it is not improbable that a considera. Ule party may be rallied in England. ‘The sentimental motives of resistance to 60 great a change as the dismemberment of the em- pire must he of considerable cogency ; and already we seo no less a writer than Mr. Frovupr coming forward to make them avail- able. It is also argued that the colonies must be preserved as places of resort for emi- gration; though it is difficult to understand how a colony is more attractive to an emi. grant than an independent country; and these who dwell upon the usefulness of colo nics for this purpose can never have beheld the hundreds of thousands of British ermi- grants who yo to Canada intending to stay there, but who make of it only a resting place on their way to the United States, The struggle of the Tories for the reton- tion of the colonics will probably end very much like the effort of the Canadians to build a Pacific railroad upon a line where Nature has rendered te attempt tipracti able. ous pnce. The Disrepatable Times Embarrassed, The disreputable Nii York Times of ses terday contained an elaborate leader, one of the leading objects of which seemed to be the denunciation of Judge Bansann, And what is the ground of complaint in the Times?
