Yhe outer world, through their own or gums, completely disprove all their former e@atements. The celebrated battle whick Gen. JORDAN won over the Spanierds in Camagucy on New Year's day a year ago, haa been casi into the shade by mere than one recent couflict. More numerous bodies of armed mer have been engaged on either ide ; and the acknowledyed loss of the Span. dah forces, 100 in ove ight, is far greater than ‘any they ever confessed before. The war therefore is progressing, and the executions on both wides prove that it has lost nothing of that ferocious character, which more than once since its commencement hoe caused the civilized world to shudder, and excited digounsion iv various legislative assemblies. Some time since President Guant in a mesmage to Congress described this war as an “exterm nating” one; and inasmuch as the shooting of prisoners seems to be gen eral, the term is not misapplied. Apart from “the fearful sacrifice of human life, to which there is no conceivable limit short of the ex- termination of the combatants om one or the ether side, the advancing devastation of what was leiely one of the most produciive of cultivated countries is cxciting considera dle alarm among ether nations. The Span jards burn and destroy every village or as semblage of huts or clearing from which they drive the Cubans, trusting that the impossibility of obtaining the necessaries of life may induce them to surrender; while the Cubans publicly proclaim that they ex pect to win their independence as much by the torch as by the sword. It is, they en: only by means of the productions of the soil of Cuba that Spain is enabled to war against ‘ite sous. When the war broke out, Cuba was pro ducing, with a population of something less than two millions of people, the value of about two hundred and filly million dollars @ year, The industrics of which this enor mous sum was the product were about equally divided Letwoen the cities and the country, that is to #ay, between manufac Goring and agriculture.

JouNson in the Supreme Court were diswiesod, And now the Board of Managers have passed a resolution to drop the impeachinent of Gov. Crayrox, who on his part declines to accept the office of United States Senator. ‘This probably ends the rumpus for the pre. sent, leaving CLAYTON in possession of the spofls, which must be considerable if it is true, as has beon stated, that while the Rebel. Democratic Government of 1867 and 1868 cost the people less than $900,000, CLay- Ton's administration for the same length of time has cost $1,000,000, besides $8,000,000 of bonds issued to railroad and other corpora. tious. The total taxable property of the State was estimated in 1969 at only seventy millions of dollars ; and at this rate the State taxes alone in Arkansas, exclusive of oa tional and local taxation, will be over two per cent. No wonder that with such prospect the Governor should be impeached, or that he should be ablo with some trifling conces- tious to secure the abandonment of the pro- ceeding.

THE SUN, TUESDAY, MARCH 17, orn newspapers denounce it as a echeme of “ greedy Radical adventurers” to put money in their own pockets. So much the worse for Missiesippi, Had sho paid hor juat debts before the adventurers obtained control of her Legislature, they would never have gained the houor of restoring the credit of the State, There is a kind of argument often suc cessfully employed to defeat the payment of & debt long overdue, and which has been Ircady urged in the case of Mississippi. The French «poliation bills, #0 frequently introduced into Congress in former years, invariably failed to become laws be cause it was believed that the claim. ante represented but an inconsidera. Die number of persons who were actual sufferers from the depredations of French cruisers upon American commerce, The original sufferers, weary of waiting for re- dress, had gradually sold their claims to speculators and adventurers, whom Congress considered iteelf in no wise bound to indem- nify, notwithsteuding that by a convention entered into with France our Government had acsumed the claims of American citizens against the latter country. ‘The payment of the repudiated Mississippi bonds is resisted on a similar pretext. The obligation of the State to pay will probably be admitted ; but it is urged that the prowent owners of the bonds are not respectable persons, and de. ferve no consideration. If Mississippi will rebuke the apholders of this pernicious doe: trine by cancelling her indebtment at the earliest possible day, she will find it a good investment. Honesty is the best policy. — Two of the mest noted ceclesiastical in- subordinates of the dey ser of Chicago and the I Established Church of England, With the former gentleman's case the public are tolerably familiar ; bat bis fault, regarded from « sevtar Pointof view, was slight indeed compared with that of Me. Vorexy, who disbelievos the Trinity, eternal punishment, the atonement, the medi tion, Bible inspiration, the New Testament genu- fueneas, and miracles. In the copie ness of his unbelief he is a heretic of heretics and High Church and Low Church, for ouce, combined to arraiga him before an ecclesiastical tribunal. The case was argucd somé wonths Ago before the Jadicial Committee of the Privy Council, which has just sentenced him to be de- prived of his living unless he retracts, The real case against Mr. Vorsey was that he bad eo naturalized and rationalized the doctrines of his Church as to deprive them of supernatural thenticity, Asked whether he believes m the Holy Ghost, he answers, Yeo; but he identifies it with conscienee. Asked if he believes that Jesns was the Son of God, he replies, Yes ; buty he adds, all human beings are children of God. Does be believe in mirack’s t Certainty ; all na. ture ise miracle, And so on, These opinions, be maintains, are not inconsistent with his obli gation as a clergyman of the Church of England to conform to her creeds and articica, because the latter are desiguedly framed iu such compre lensive langaage as to enable men of widely aif- fering doctrinal views to acknowledge their au- thority, In other words, Mr. Vorssr, being an independent thinker ofan unusually radical type, has been profersing to be a good Church of hag land man, and regarding those who walked in the old theological paths as struggling under a weight of error and prejudice. Of this, however, the Court to which he appealed was not required to tuke coguizance, It simply passed upon the question whether his dvctrines {were expressly or by plain implication condemned by the Boek of Common Mrayer, which embodies the faith of bis Church, and on that issee it fuand him guilty, Roth Mr. Vorser and Mr. Crexer appear to be men of great purity of character end real in the promotion of religious truth, The difficulty with them is, that they oe not know it.
