And when he quotes against the former his own grandiloquent words, that “all haphazard governments, not foanded on legitimacy, after a few of fancied safety, will have to succomb,” the disinterested reader must acknowledye that he deals a stagger. ing blow at that representative of obscurity and divine right, The Mrves-Dounnoy branch of the family having spoken, let us now hear from the Witttams-Bounnon representative, The Kev.

The absurdity of looking to Madrid for redress for any outrage committed iu Cuba has been for the last two years so selfevi dent that the representatives, both naval and consular, of all other nations except our own have long since adopted the system of execting immediate reparation from the local authorities, The consequence has been that the flage of such nations and the lives of their citizens have been respected. While American citizens who happen to be obnoxious to the volunteers are denied ad. mission into Cuba, and while their property confiscated and destroyed, Haart Fisu, in lieu of accepting the responsibility and ordering our vessels of war to act in the prem‘sea, wastes tne and money in tele graphing to Madrid and demanding tie pub. lication of orders by the Spanish Government which be knows full well Spain has power to enforce, to bir he Core ne Two years ago Gen, Print assured Gen SICKLES that Dk Ropas had orders to shoot Jown any refractory volunteers, Since then the voluntecrs have packed Dg Rovas off to Spain; and tho last steamer brings us news that they have deposed the Governor of Cicn fueyos—the most important point on the southern coast—simply because he thwarted their will in protecting from their fury a small boy, whose crime was the possession of a handkerchief embroidered with a red star Mr, Fisn’s solo excuse will probably be that the evil is not in Madrid.
