WHITE IMMIGRANTS.
HOW TO GET AND HOW TO KEEP THEM.
A Novel and Practical Plan.
The following article, on the subject of white
immigration, has been handed to ns for publica?
tion by a gentleman who has seen the plan which
he proposes tried ia a neighboring State, upon a
limited scale, with most gratifying success :
TO THE EDITOR OF THE NEWS.
It is universally conceded that one or the great
needs or the South at present, ls an increase or
her white population; this Increase can only be
speedily brought about by Immigration. Various
schemes have been suggested to facilitate this
important matier; individual effort hus been ex?
erted ; com?anles have been organized; State aid
has been propitiates; all of which, it is reasona?
ble to hope, will accomplish good results in time.
Any suggestions bearing upon this important
question, any plan calculated to further this
great object, we feel assured, will address ltseir
to the thought Hil consideration or our people.
The population or our State is, we suppose,
about 675,000 persons, near threc-flfths or whom
are colored; or the land proprietors, nearly all are
white, and will ever continue to be, lor reasons
sufficiently obvious to any one who is at all fam?
iliar with the traits of the two races. There are
now over fonr millions acres or cultivated land,
and something more than twelve millions uncul?
tivated, In this State; there is land enough, there?
fore, to furnish a population twenty-five times as
large as we now have, and give to every man,
woman and child an acre of ground, wc have con?
sequently space enough Tor a population or tweu
ty millions of people.
It is not sum acut tuat we publish oar peculiar
advantages, in a vast variety or soil, climate and
production, lu order to change the current ol
emigration from the teeming Northwest to tho
Snuuy South; we must do mure-we must con
vince lhe emigrant that it is no less to his Inter
est than lt is to our.-; Indeed, that lt is far more to
his, that be is to come amona* us; he must be sat
isfled that he Is not to change thc ties of hom?,
family and friends of bis fatherland for thc cheer?
less solitude ot the desert; bc initstuot be crowd?
ed into badly ventilated and unseaworthy vessels
to be tossed about the ocean for weeks or months, i
dually to be landed, if he escapes the perils ur
the sea, penniless and a stranger on Inhospitable ,
shores: but he munt be contldent or asaie nnd
comronable sea voyage; or a ready and kindly
welcome; of a prompt and cheap conveyance to a
salubrious climate: and lt ls, we think, entirely
within the power of those most Interested to pro?
vide the means and furnish the Inducements
that will AU our land with a thrifty and happy
population.
We suggest the formation of a company, com?
posed of every real estate owner In the State, who
ls willing to contribute a portion of bis lands to?
wards its capital stock, or asa douation; upon
the deposit of the titles of tl:is land as collaterals,
with a responsible ageut or some European bank?
er or other capitalist, the company to borrow the
requisite means to assist such immigrants as may
be thought worthy and desirable, and who pro?
pose to purchase and settle upon any or the lands
or the company he may select at a rair valuation,
to be paid after a certain number of years by In?
stalments, he (list refunding the company the
amount ad VJ need him; thc titles to the laud tu
be made him when the entire debt is paid. In
many cases thc small tracts of laud would bc paid
roriacash; lu some cases the contributions or
land would become donations to thc company; in
all cases Improvements and settlements would in?
crease the value of the security : purchasers would
be found for lands now unsaleable, and addition?
al value given to neighboring tracts. Suppose
thc value or thc real estate in this State to bc
?100,000,000, and one hundredth part or lt should
be pledged to raise a loan <>r$l,ouo.ooo, this would
rurnish ten thousand persons with a loan or one
hundred dollars each; with the present wages or
labor, be would be unfortunate. Indeed, who
could not pay that small amount back at the end
ol the Hrs: year. Under proper management the
operation or some such scheme as this, which we
have very Imperrectly suggested, and the details
or which we have scarcely glanced at, might be
made efficacious in conferring great benetlt upon
the State; In furnishing speedily a thrifty popula?
tion; in developing the resources of the State; In
increasing and diversifying her productions; lu
restoring her political influence, and In raising
her ti II ancia'. credit to a standard equal to that ol'
any other State in the Union. J. ?. A.
THE HIGH SHOALS HOAX.
A Successful Swindling Operation.
[From the Columbia Guardian.]
We arc advised that the recently reported
purchase of property, and water-power, in An?
derson County, for manufacturing establish?
ments, is likely to turn out a swindle. That at pie
sent seems to be the Indication. The Tacts given
us are these. Thc Individual calllug hlmscir
Harris "'.alms t-i be from Maryland. A Tew weeks
ago he went io Anderson Courthouse with his
wire, and begtm to look around fer lands to pur?
chase. He soon Axed on the place known as
High Shoals, live miles from the village. He
purchased from Mrs. McFall a tract of fifty acres,
containing the water-power, for the sum of
$10,000. He also bought of Mr. W. S. Sharpe a
lot of twenty acres, with a dwelling and other
houses, for $9100. Also of Keese A McCnlly, a
store-room for S?OOO. Also a tract of land from
Mr. N. K. Sullivan-price not learned. The titles
to all these purchases were made out but not
delivered. He borrowed of Colonel J. W. Norris
over $1300 in money, without surety. He also
bought on trial a fine gold watch aud a rlug,
promising to pay S19S for them, ir they suited.
Ue advertised for and received bids for the
making of 2,000,000 of bricks for building his cot?
ton and wool factory at High Shoals.
Our informant believes he did not pay lils
board bills.
His wife left Anderson on Thursday la?t. with
the avowed Intention or going to Washington to
make arrangements to have the funds In Charles?

told a conductor ou the Greenville and Columbia
railroad that she was to take the Augusta traiu
on her way to the Weit.
On Friday. Mr. Harris. In company with Messrs.
Sharp?, Sullivan and Keese, left Anderson for
Charleston. These gentlemen were going with
him io get the money due them for the purchases
above enumerated. When the train arrived at
Gadsden Mr. Harri* was not to be found; and has
not been heard of since.

THE CUBAN REVOLT.
ITS HISTORY, GOVERNMENT, RE
SOURCES, OBJECTS, HOPES
A.ND PROSPECTS.
Allures* of General Napoleon Arango to
his Countrymen in Anns.
Cubans-When Carlos Manuel de C?spedes
thought ol raising the cry of Independence,
and expected the other cities of the Island to
second him, he received, as a replv. from the
jurisdiction of Holguin and Puerto Principe,
that they icould not support him ; and tile
Cinco Villas and other towns maintained an
attitude of expectancy. Notwithstanding this,
C?spedes said that he had no need of the re?
mainder and that he icould pronounce on the
14th of October, as he did in fact, but some?
what in advance of that date. Having so
many reasons, as I have, to know the country,
as well as the character and tendencies of its
inhabitants; and also what Spain would do
and what was to be expected oj the people on
Hie Island; knowing, moreover, the policy of
the United States, and the effects as well as
the consequences that must follow a revolu?
tion, especially when it was an extemporaneous
outburst ; and being convinced, besides, that,
owing to the heterogeneous nature of oiir pop?
ulation and to Hie little enlightenment of the
masses, nothing but extermination, could be
expected for Cuba, I took part in framing the
reply given to C?spedes by Puerto Principe,
staling that, since he took pains to carry out so
uicked an idea, he should not be seconded by
us : and we made him responsible, before pos?
terity, for the evils which he was about to
bring on Cuba.
C?spedes and his inexperienced fellow
believers proclaimed independence at Yara,
without any supply of arms or munitions ot
war-without provisions, clothing, &c, ?c..
with which to support their movement. Igno?
rant of what revolution is, they launched
forth Just like children who heedlessly play with
a wild beast, In entire ignorance ot Its nature.
The first moment ol enthusiasm on the part of
the people, and of surprise on the uart ol' the
government, gave them the victory kt Bay am o,
and they at once thought that the independence
of Cuba was already secured. This was a
fatal error, a sad illusion, which blueten theil
common sense and gave loose rein to their
passions. It was the fatal error of those men
who had not sufficient strength of will to be
able to walt, Ah ! bow fatal it is not to know
when to await !
The Camagueyanos were aroused at the en?
thusiastic shout for liberty, and they wished to
help their brethren of Bayamo, driven on by
a sentiment of fraternity and by their yet
stronger love of liberty; that noble aspiration
which God has Imbued in the hearts of all
men. I soured not in these desires, although
I did really in their sentiments, but I was re?
strained by experience and by my knowledge
of the situation. Anxious to be'of Bervice to
ray country, I offered to-go to Bayamo as a
representative from Puerto "Principe, which I
did.
From my first steps Into thc Eastern Depart?
ment, I was conuinccd of the error into which
thc people had faljen, and the impossiblitj of
keeping up so un?qitnl a contest. Moreover,
alter studying thc revolution and sounding the
feelings of Hie people. I discovered that thev
did uot desire thc movement, but had been
dragged into it; without noticing, in the be?
ginning, owing to their blind precipitation,
that they were not prepared to secure a suc?
cessful issue.
In some private circles I spoke of thc
propriety of changing the cry for indepen?
dence in'o an nccepuitlon ol' thc Cadiz pro?
gramme-an idea which was -cell received,
and seemed so to change the course
of affairs, that I ran a great risk, being threat?
ened by the lew who persisted in their origiual
intention. I spoke to C?spedes, and made
known to him thc untimeliness of the revolu?
tion; that if he really desired tho welfare of
Cuba, this latter consisted In withdrawing
from a war that must be ruinous and unsuc?
cessful in thc end, that the liberties offered in
thc Cadiz programme teere perhaps ewn mort
than tanita suit CilOa, ?SC, Ac. CoopoUce, ci/fi
vinced by my reasoning, agreed to my proposal.
and, if he then failed to follow my advice, it
was, to use his own words, because he feared
that he would not be obeyed by those who
had already proclaimed for independence.
They did not understand thc true policy that
should bc followed In thc guidance ol nations.
Tliey began badly and will end worse.
On ray return to Puerto Principe I found
the country in insurrection, dragged on by
two or three men who were leil wrong by
their ill-digested ideas of liberty or by their
own private interest, nnd whose only wish was
revolution in whatever way it could be brought
about. I grieved at this mistake, but without
losing heart; and, always firm in advancing
the prosperity of Cuba. I called a meeting
which was held at Clavellinas. There-1 made
known the result of my observations during
my trip to Bayamo, and, after some discus?
sions, tlte force of my arguments prevaUcd.
With one exception, all agreed that we shouid
adhere to the Cadiz programme. I was after?
wards appointed General-in-Chief with especial
charge (thus was it set forth in thc record)
that I should have cm interview with General
Valmaseda for the purpose noted above.
In a conversation with that gentleman he
manifested the best of intentions in favor of
a pacification, but stated that he was not em?
powered by Iiis government to make any con?
cession. He offered, nevertheless, to grant
effectual ones, so soon as he could obtain the
power. He called my attention lo this, that
whatever the liberties which should be granted
to Cuba, the rights of the Cubans would have
to be regarded" as attacked, if they did not
send representatives to have a hand in every?
thing that might be done in regard to this
country.
I ku?w too well the reasons of Geueral Val
mascda, but fearing that my fellow-country?
men might not seize the force of his reason?
ing, wo agreed upon a truce of four (lays,
Yt liich I requested, in order to call another
meeting more numerous, and one which should
decide upon the matter. This meeting took
place fit Las Minas; and there, as well- as at
Clavellinas, the mujority was-not for a contin?
uation of the war, but for accepting the Cadiz
Programme. Hud o voto been taken, it is evr
tian that tills choice icould have carried; but I
refrained from calling a vote In order to be
consistent with the Cattnao district, which
had made known, through its delegate, Don
Carlos L. Mola (Junior) tiiat it wished to have
no voting; because, in case thereof, they would
be bound to its result; auJ that district was
only in favor of accepting whatever the gov?
ernment chose to grant them.
Au immense majority was in favor of thc pro?
gramme', and, nevertheless, the war was kept
up, because those, bent upon it, spared no
means nor suggestion to entice away those iu
favor of thc Cadiz programme. That is to say,
that, taking advantage ol family lies, of friend?
ships, aud of an ill comprehended association,
Sec., &&, they dragged along with them the
unwary and the inexperienced, wiio were then
reluc?an! enough and who now know their
error. As I never wished to force upon any
one (not even on my own brothers) ray own
ideas,nor to make usc ol' any other means than
persuasion,in accordance willi reason, I confin?
ed myself to simply resigning the rank that had
been conferred on mo and withdrew to my
plantation. From that time forward I busied
myself merely with enlightening the people,
showing them the mistakes into which they
were led by those who were interested in thc
continuance of the war.
I have not sought to impose my notions on
any one, but I do not, any the more, accept
those ol'others, when my reason and my con?
science reject them. And I believe lhere is no
riyht, nor law, nor reason to support those
who willingly, or through force, wish to force
upon others their own ideas, however good
and holy these may be.
Those who are at thc head of the Cuban
government and gnide the re. olutlon believe
their triumph possible; they think their ideas
are correct and their way a good one. Very
well; but, not believing as they do, I
move aside from that government, whose
pressure and arbitrariness are such that it
will not even admit neutrality in others. I
will not wage war against you; I will not
take up arms against you, except in per?
sonal defence; but I separate from men who
wish to impose their own notions on others
through forc?. You are free to think and
act as "you like, and I reserve to myself the
same right, and act in accordance therewith.
But there is more. In the position where,
unfortunately and much against my will,
events have placed me, I occupy a place as a
oublie man, as a politician, in alban- politics;
and I should not remaiu inactive while I be?
hold Hie destruction of Cuba, and look out
merely for my personal safety under the pro
tcction or Lht* Spanish Government. Xo, g
tlemen, I would then be a bad patriot, am
love my country before liberty, or rather I
not understand the former principle as
vorced from the latter. Both are intim?t
bound together; and, in order that the first
worth}, honorable and beneficial to humani
it cannot be separated from the second.
I am a Cuban, the same as yourselves, am
have consequently the same right to busy n
self with the welfare ol' my country." I
everyone have his method; you preterid tl
yon obey the popular will; that you are at t
bead of government, because of the will
the people and popular choice; that you act
conformity with ideas and sentiments of t
Cubans, and, finally, that you are promotii
the welfare and prosperity of Cuba. I sh
prove entirely the contrary.
The favorable reception with which my ide
were met at Bayamo, the meeting at Clavel
nas, that at Las Minas, and thc desire- i
most unanimous-to accept the concessio
offered by General Dulce, prove siifficicni
that the country wanted peace; neverthele
you maintain war. Hence, popular suflVa:
in the country is but a chimera.
Let us see" how the actual government w
formed. On the one eldo. Curios Manuel <
C?spedes, who. for himself and in his ou
name, set himself up as the dictator of Cuba, a
2>ointcd a certain number of deputies for tl
East, at the famous meeting In Guaimaro. Th
ls a line representation of popular will and t
admirable republic, when the deputies are m
elected by the people ! On the other ham
the assembly at Puerto Principe was illegal
constituted and entirely unauthorized: am
finally, some deputies from the Cinco villas
the only ones which perhaps held a l?gitimai
representation - met together and forme
the actual government, which they should hav
called the. Venetian, rather than ti Cuban Reput
lie. They formed the government by sharin
with each other Ute o?ces. and they propos
thus to shape the destiny of Cuba, A hand?
of men, thus representing over a million soul!
who have no share In their nomination, doe
not assuredly constitute popular election.
The Cubans want the liberty of assemblage
freedom of speech, respect of property, pet
sonal security, the liberty to leave the terrltor
of the republic-which ls a right secured In ai
nations ol the world to every individual; they
want, In fine, to be governed as the majorlt'
choose, and not according to the will of a few
But nothing of all this is done. YVhoeve
puts forth Ideas contrary to those of the gov
ern ment or of any o? Its functionaries is threat
ened with four shots; property is a prey to th
first comer, who, with arms in hand, can tak<
possession of what suits him: the lives of met
are sported with, Just as children sport willi
flies; and, in fine, whoever attempts to aban
don the government, even without intending
to wage war on it, ls persecuted unto death.
Hence the conduct of said government is nol
In conformity with the ideas and sentiments o
the country.
If to all this be added the arsons and thc
complete destruction of Cuban wealth, the
demolition ot' towns and what must follow in
the end, can there be one sensible mm whe
will maintain that ali this constitutes the pro?
pcrlty and well-being of Cuba? Assuredl}
not.
You employ /circe, deceit, terror, to drag
thc masses on and to carry out whatever yon
judge beneficial to the cause of Cuba; I usc
only reason, truth, and the irresistible logic
of facts and of experience, not thc material
argument of arms.
Well, then, knowing as I do. that, thc country
docs not icant war and that it continues there?
in under the pressure of the Cuban govern?
ment, on Hie one hand and, on thc other, out
of fear of thc punishment which the Spanish
Government might Inflict; knowing, as I do,
that nothing is to be expected from the United
.?.tatos, as it was attempted to make the peo?
ple believe; knowing that, since the beginning
of .thc insurrection. 40,000 men have come
troin Spain, aud that many more will come-a
fact generally unknown In this country; aware,
as I am, tliat'over 100,000 men are under arms;
that thc coasts are well watched, and that the
New York Junta lacks resources to send ma?

from there being any secessionists, it is the
country-people themselves who pursue the in?
surgents, as has just taken place in Cuines;
knowing, as I do, that the families, to bc met
with in the fields, arc anxious to return to thc
towns; and aware of tho importance attached
to my conduct, both in the island and abroad,
I have made a new sacrifico for my country. I
have come forward with my lamlly to prove,
by my example, that I do not believe In the
triumph of the insurrection, nor do I fear the
Spanish government; which, animated as it is
with the best of wishes, ls ready to draw a
veil over the past, provided the country can
be pacifled, and many tears, much blood and
loss ot property be spared.
It is a sacrifice, indeed, gentlemen, for I ex?
pose my name to the evil tongued and make
it the butt of false Interpretations.
I bellev? firmly that the happiness ol' Cuba
and thc wollare of humanity consists In the
pacification of tills beautiful country; and
I maintain this In the presence of the whole
universe, with my hand un my conscience and
head erect, ns becomes n man of honor.
There is no man who ls Infallible, and per?
haps my opinions and determination may be
wrong;*but I can ut least affirm that I am act?
ing In good faith, having for my sole object In
view, the wolfare of my country and of hu?
manity, and making total abstraction ot my
own personality, us well as of my own in?
terests.
I am not a time-server but a man of fixed
principles; I am convinced of my opinions and
feel the energy of my convictions. I now main?
tain what I have maintained since the begin?
ning of the revolution, even previous thereto.
My actual conduct is not thcrclore an apostacy,
but the energetic continuance in ray opinions
aud principles. These I do not mean to impose
on any one; I merely make them known, in?
viting all lo examine them in every detail,
and I am sure that they will follow my ex?
ample. But, il* blind to reason and unmindful
of the events which for a year aud a half have
supported my predictions, they persist lo a
struggle which I believe hopeless, let them
keep on, but without extending thc honors of
war to famines. Let the women and children,
whom government wishes to foster and daily
supports with rations of bread, rice, butter,
ftc., come to the city; and let you keep on, If
unfortunately you refuse to listen to the voice
of reason and of patriotism, in that senseless
contest, which you must later repent having
ever begun.
Reflect a moment; examine thoroughly,
and not merely, the appearances ol the situa?
tion, and you will sec that the existing strife
is an unquailfiable mistake, aud Us continua?
tion an unparalleled blindness. The country
has been dragged into a revolution which the
majority repudiated ; anti not only the majori?
ty In number, but In the character of the per?
sons. A small number- very small Indeed, an
insignificant minority, has dragged on the
majority. Where was ever such a tiling wit?
nessed before, gentlemen ? What has become
ol' thc int tl?ge?ce of Cubans? Where are the
energy and the influence of men of intelligence
anti character ?
I know, and I an positive, that those of the
majority think as 1 do; and, nevertheless, they
act differently, onlj because they lack resolu?
tion and are deceived by the lew who are In?
terested in keeping up the revolution, no mat?
ter by what means. The system, followed
thus far, is deceit, ami the result must be fatal.
When a building is erected on shilling loun
dutlons it must Inevitably crumble. I have
striven during lite insurrection, pertinaciously
und without remiss, In disabusing thu people
so thut they could, knowingly and conscien?
tiously, make a choice of what was for their
interest; but as this method is diametrically
opposed to that of some evil patriots, these lat?
ter have waged a bitterund unfair war against
mc.
Cubans ! Yon have seen that I have always
been a protector to the people; that I have
tried to enlighten them, that they might have
a participation in everything, and know what
they were doing, so ns to follow their own
ideas and not b< carried by others; but what
has been thc result ? I was treacherously and
Illegally arrested, at thc request of those few
who wish tc rule .he masses. I was sentenced
to death, and ov>r twenty times have they
tried to put an en4 to. my life. And there are
vet some who, in their waywardness, seek my
blood. Natural jense shows clearly that,
when an attempt ls made to annihilate him
who speaks the ttuth; who enlightens and
never deceives; who, instead of speculating
on his fellow-corntrymen and growing
rich on the revolttion, makes use of hi?
own means to succor the masses, (let
all Yaguajay speak;) who never makes
use of any pressure to enforce his ideas; who
allows himself to be ruined from the neglect
ol' Iiis own interests, in order to give' hil
up solely to the welfare of his country-d<
not show clearly, I say, that the alten
made only because his adversaries have d
ent pretensions and a different line of cor
from Iiis ? Now, what is this difference
consists in violence, deceit, the use ot /
spoliation of the neighbor, for one's oicn
flt; it ls despotism, based on the ignoram
which the people are kept. I have souci
have the country governed as it is its wi;
be governed, In accordance with univi
suffrage; your government, on the conti
pretend to rule It sis they see flt. They ?
that they want liberty for the people, w
the most cruel despotism weighs upon
You know, unfortunately, but too well,
this is the clear and plain truth, lor you si
too many of its sad consequences.
The people are told that from the Un
States will come reinforcements and r?sout
that there arc elements to spare for the
tinuation of the war; that the Spanish sol
carries a cartridge box and wears shoes of
A Wc, and is short of provisions; that there
no troops, nor will any come from Spain;
the laxes are ruining the country, ftc,
Well, I, who do not He, against whom no
can cite a single act unworthy of a mai
honor-in whom the Cubans have always
their last hope, and through whose veins r
the blood of real patriots-I tell you thai
tills is illusion, deceit, and a fatal chimera.
The Government of the United States d
not busy itself, not can it, with the Cuban
surrection. Look at article IC of the treat'
1797. and yon will learn that they cannot fa
thc Cubans in the least efficacious way, w
aiit failing In national dignity and expos
themselves to a coalition against tliemseh
Tiiat government is too polished and flnanc
ly shrewd to compromise itself In a war t
would entail serious mischief upon its cc
merce; and, moreover, there are other i
;ives that would be too lengthy to detail.
Elements to spare are neither in Hie coi
ry nor in the hands of the New York Jun
ivlio have made great outlays and now bej
;o assert that the Cubans should provide the
selves with arms by taking them from the i
raiy. The Spanish soldier is to-day better p
?.ided for than in ordinary times, and he I
tbundance of everything. From Spalu he
:omc 40,000 men, and millions would be sc
f necessary. There ar.' no taxes: they ha
di been suppressed, even the titiie; the c
outhouses yield now more than in ordlna
Imes; and it the country does not enjoy grea
i-anchises. It is due to the situation in whi
t is at present. So you see that you are bel
?eccl ved. and not only yourselves, but also t
lunta at New York ana the whole world, u;
ihali prove.
I have just read a manifesto of Manuel Qt
?ada, published in New York, under date
he 8th instant, in which he sets astray e
?rely the opinion that should be formed oft
?tate of the Insurrection. I shall tear off t
landage. He states that the Cuban arr
lumbers 61,000: that there are here five po
1er factories; that fire-arms aie m .nufactur
tere, as well as swords and bu- onets; Hi
here arc thirteen public schools and thirte
?burches; that 3000 shoes are made eve
veek and 4000 hides tanned every month; th
he soldier receives for dally ration beef, sugt
:oiree, vegetables and rice at "his discrelio
obacco, Ac; that there are many sugar mill
grinding tor the State; that several wat
muses aro filled with tobacco, sugar, hide
kc, lo the value of many millions of dollar
hat the territory which is occupied by the Ci
ians in insurrection is in a cultivated and pr
lucing condition, such as has never belo
leen witnessed, even during years of tl
fronlest abundance; that thousands of pcrcu
ion caps are daily made; that he (Quesadi
eft herc under commission of importanc
liter having temporarily put Jordan in cou
nand, under instructions, as well as thc otb*
eaders, ftc., Ac, to an endless length. I ai
hess yon, fellow-countrymen, who are thei
?n the ground of this insurrection whence
lave lately come. You, as well as mysel
;no\v that all these things are false, enllrel
ahe.
Quesada states that he hos gone to sec
noons and bring anns, with which to end tl
nsiirrection, but for what does he need then
f he. has G1,000 men ? Is it possible that
hoiild not occur lo the Inhabitants of Ne
fork to ask him what need he has of mot
neans, wnen ne nas so niamj / .>?,,
chen he has over 20,000 arms and can mak
nore, as well as powder und caps ? Wn
tas not that soldier of fourteen years' campaign
ng taken possession, with that army, of on
tingle town, at least, wherein to locate th
lovernment of tho republic ? Why has he nc
:aptured one siiujle port through which to gc
dd, export thc productions ot the country, t
he value of millions, and tints acquire
.igbt to recognition as belligerents ? IVA?
ire those schools ? Wliere are those churches
Ha"e those at Gualuiaro and Sibanici
ivhlch icere burned by that renowned ger
irai, been perchance rebuilt? Why ar
Lhe soldiers unshod, or wearing strips of ra
Filde, if 3000 shoes arc made weekly and 40C
lildes tanned per month ? Where ts the abu
.lance lor the soldier ? Where has he got coj
ree, rice, tobacco, ?kc. .' Where arc those suga
mills In regular running order ? JKAere ?J
[Ao.se warehouses that contain millions
Where is that rich growth when not only there 1
no cultivation going on, but government order
to destroy and lay waste the cultivation thu
was in existence ? Where are those cap fae
tories? Area few samples of such caps to b
taken for thousands ? Then, as to the com
mission of Manuel Quesada and his separatio]
from command, do you not know, as well as
do, that he was igrtominiously deposed by th
Chamber; and that, during Iiis stay la Cuba
(rom his first arrival, his conduct has beei
blameworthy, under all aspeefc ?
Well, then', Cubans, this ls the plan followei
from the beginning of the revolution. The,
ure deceiving you and our brethren in Nev
York, as well as the whole world. For the?
reasons I say that thc edifice is raised on in
secure and imaginary foundations. For thesi
reasons have 1 always tried to undeceive tin
country and let them see clearly, so as to pre
venl Cuba from sinking into the abyss whercii
ske is intended to be cast. Withal I have no
been understood. There has been no lack o
some one who, out of exaltation, and under tin
pressure ol some sad aberration, has qualifi?e
my conduct as treasonable. Ahl Whoevei
stated that knows not even the meaning o
his words ! When did I ever recognize thli
government? Never; but, rather have :
always been In opposition thereto. For asl
wisli my country's welfare, I could not secont
an illegal, arbitrary, despot ic government, thai
ls annihilating our land.
They recognize their error, but they havf
not loyalty enough to confess it, they are
aware that tiley are neither statesmen, noi
lovers of liberty, nor patriots, and their con?
sciences sling them; they know that I have
always seen R?ther than they could, and more
clearly; that ali my predictions have been
lullilled; that I have been alone in maintaining
energetically my principles, bearing tiji
against all kinds of privation and danger; and
(hey do not forgive me for these advantages
over them; they know that my past and my
present career has been free from all stain, and
they do not forgive me for that.
Well, it to have thus behaved; to have made
entire abstraction of self and my interests, to
look alter the welfare of Cuba; to have done
harm to no one, but much good; far from hav?
ing taken life, to have saved the lives of many,
without distinction of nationality; to have
respected always Hie properly of others, and
never have let my hand touch the incendiary
torch: to forward pacification, when I know
that the country needs it, and that by lt alone
can tears, blood and destruction be prevented;
If to have done all this constitutes treason, ali !
then I nm a traitor; yes. gentlemen, 1 tun one,
and feel proud of lt.
Your government claims to iavor liberty for
the country; why the ti does it not consent to
freedom of one's principles ? Wily does it not
admit of neutrality ? Why does it force people
to take up arms without distinction of per?
sons? Why has it always been opposed to
speaking out in public ? Why did it oppose
the country's acceptance, if it so chose, of Gen?
eral Dulces concessions Y Why does it perse?
cute to death whoever tries to separate himself
from said government, without having any in?
tention of waging war against it ? Why? I
will tell you. Because then there would re?
main in the camp of the insurrection only a
dozen men-the only ones interested in the con?
tinuance of this icar between brethren-this
war of desolation and extermination.
I agree that there was reason for the Cuban
people to complain and be resentful agaiust
the government that ruled them; but all this
has changed, not only with regard to the in?
stitution, but as to the manner of being, as
well. I am myself an example of what I state.
I presented myself to the Captain-General who
received me in such a way as to prove, by his
manner alone, his good wishes; even if these
were not confirmed by the cord tct which he
followed in the Villas and wi erever he has
been able to make the Impress of his own feel?
ings be felt. In Iiis proclamation he offers a
pardon to all who will present themselves; but
as every medal has Its reverse, so whoever
falls to do so must suffer the cold and inexora?
ble rigor of the law.
Fellow-countrymen, my brethren, let us
throw a veli over the past. Let us look to the
future of our families and to the prosperity of
our nation.
You know well how many persecutions,
privations and even vexations I have suffered.
I forget it all and lorgive, from my heart, all
who sought my death and wanted my blood. I
forgive all who, directly or Indirectly, have
offended me, of whatever nation or condition
they may be. I sacrifice all. all, on the altar of
my country, and for the welfare of tanmanlty.
Why do yon not follow my example ?
Brethren ! let there be no more tears, no
more blood, no more ruins ! Return to your
firesides, and let a fraternal embrace unite for?
ever both .Spuniard3 and Cubans, and let ua all
together make of this beautiful island-the
Pearl of the Antilles-the Pearl also of the
world. Cubans, r await you, and the unde?
served consideration shown to me by the first
authority at Cuba, whicli fortunately is held
by Senor Don Antonio Caballero de Rodas, I
offer to use In your behalf. For myself, I only
seek the satisfaction of having always for?
warded the welfare of Cuba.

THE M'FARLAND TRIAT,.
An Ant i-M< Fai lund View of thc Pro?
ceedings-."Mrs. Richardson" to be a
Wit noss-W-iat Mr. Greeley is Expect?
ed to Swear to.
The New York correspondent of the Spring?
field (Mass.) Republican writes :
The trial has progressed far enough ior-tne^re=
fence to show their hand pretty clearly, and as
Mr. Spencer promised In his opening of their case,
they demand acquittal on three grounds, which,
though entirely inconsistent and mutually de?
structive, they havr ci.e legal right to set up and
maintain and defend, tiie law allowing the pris?
oner the benefit of as many defences as he can
defend. They say, in the first place, that McFar?
land was Insane; ba the next, that he was Justi?
fied, and finally, that peritonitis and excitement
caused Richardson's death. The first two posi?
tions cannot both bc true: for IX he was insane
what need of Justification? nor can the last two;
for if peritonitis was the cause of death, what
need either of Justification f Percy McFarland In
his Tathers arms is constantly before the eyes of
thc Jurors; but no allusion ls made to Richard?
son's three orphan children, and the story of the
husband's fancied wrongs and utter wretched?
ness ls repeated from the Hps or every witness,
while no allusion is made to thc years of misery,
neglect and brutality which Mrs. Richardson en?
dured before her proud spirit would suffer her to
receive the aid and sympathy of friends. The
only important piece of evidence which the de- J
fence have added to the case ls Richardson's in?
tercepted letter, which McFarland read to so
many of lils friends, and which provoked the first
shooting, a few days after lt fell into his hands.
Thc letter was not written, as McFarland used to
say, and as his counsel have repeated, while he
was living In perfect harmony with his wife, bnt
weeks arter they had voluntarily and finally sep?
arated, and mutually agreed on measures for
divorce. Richardson betrayed a long and ardent
attachment and honestly declared lt, aud this it
was which angered McFarland and provoked his
vengeance. Richardson's mistake lu the letter,
and through thc whole daft deplorable history of !
the adair, was his honesty and his manly avowal [
of his intentions, not allowing, as he expressed
it, public opinion to bully him one blt. lie was
warned that McFarland was on hts track and
sought his life, and replied, "1 know lt, but I
always sec him first," and so he did for many
times, and always thc assassin slunk away, silent
and disarmed. So many times had this been re?
peated that Richardson had come to doubt bis
danger, or at least feel secure ol bis certainty to
avert it. The prosecution were content and oblig?
ed to rest at first with proving the killing, and
will introduce the greater part.of their evidence
lu rebuttal of tao' testimony given for thc defence.
Mr. Greeley volunteered to testify, and will tes?
tify, that McFarland said to him before the first
shooting that he hod decided to permanently sep?
arate from lils wife; that If she was fully resolved
to separate from him lt must bc so; he added In
his interview with Greeley that he should try and
nuii.v %. M.?U vc -iMuacii. 4. r. VICVCUMIU n ni tes?
tify that McFarland sent him to Richardson to
say that he would agree that the separation
should be final, on condition that the boy Percy
was placed at a boarding school nntil fourteen
years of agc, when he could decide to which one
he would cling. J. Henri Browne will testify that
McFarland had dogged Richardson's steps for
some time previous to the last shooting, looking
for an opportunity to shoot him and not get shot
himself; that on one day, while he and Richard
Holl were sitting in thc Astor House readiug-room,
McFarland suddenly stole behind the latter.
Richardson turned and looked him steadily In the
eye for a moment. McFarland then went to a
window, as If looking for somebody there. Simi?
lar testimony will be produced to prove that Mc
Harland was sane enough to watch for a safe op?
portunity to shoot. It ls not yet certain whether
Mrs. Richardson will go upon thc stand; but the
prosecution desire lt, and she Is fully willing to
do so. A legal dltllculty, however, stands in the
way, ami may be sufficient to keep tbls most Im?
portant witness silent and the truth from coming
to light, lu the claim of thc defence, Mrs. Rich?
ardson is still the wire or the prisoner, and conse?
quently, under the laws or this State, precluded
from testifying against her husband. The ques
Hon involves the whole matter of the validity of
the Indiana divorce, and on this lt 1B doubtful If
Recorder Hackett has authority to rule. The re
ceut decision or Judge Sway ne, of the Supreme
Court, ls said not to be fully applicable to this
case, and In any aspect the question ls puzzling
and complicated. It ls possible, however, that
the prosecution will offer Mrs. Richardson asa
witness, and throw upon the defence the respon?
sibility ol' denying her the opportunity, and of
shutting out the most Important and conclusive
of all evidence In the case. Mrs. Richardson has
not yet entered the court-room, though she was
in thc courthouse for some time yesterday, and
had a lonnr Interview with District Attorney Gar?
vin. She ls now living at Woodside, N. J., with
Mr. Richardson's children and her own little
Danny, and during all these trying days, us In
those more fearfol ones or last autumn, sustains
herself with remarkable firmness.
How TO TnsAT NBW GLOVES.-Two pairs
may be taken from one box, of exactly the same
cut and quality, aud by given different treatment
when first putting the hands luto them, one pair
will bc made to sit much better, and to wear
double or nearly that length of time longer than
the other. When purchasing gloves, people arc
usually lu too much or a hurry; they carelessly
put them on, and let them go tn that way then,
thinking to do the work more completely at
another time. When this is the case a peison ls
sure to meet with disappointment, for as the
glove ls made to fit the band the first time lt ls
worn so lt will flt ever after, and no amount of
effort will make a satisfactory change. Never
allow a stretcher to be used, for the gloves will
not be likely to flt as well for lt. All of the ex?
pansions should be made by thc hands; ir the
kids are so Binall as to require the aid or a
stretcher, thev should not be purchased, as they
will prove to? small for durability, comfort or
beauty. When selecting gloves, choose those
with lingers to correspond with your own in
length, take time to put them on, working In
thc fingers Urst, until ends meeta ends, then put
in the thumb, and smooth them down until they
are made to fit nicely. A glove that alts well
will usually wear well-at least, will wear better
than one of the same kind that docs not flt well.
When thc ends of the Angers do not come down
right, or when they arc so long as to form
wrinkles upon the shies of the flngers.they will
chare out easily; where the stretcher has to be
used to make the fingers large enough, the body
part will be so small as to cramp the hand so
that it cannot be shut without bursting the seams
or the kills. Some recommend putting new kid
gloves into a damp cloth before they are put on,
and allowing them to remain until moistened.
With this treatment they can be put on much
easier than otherwise, and will flt very nicely un?
til they get dry; but on second wearing there wUl
bc an unnatural harshness about them, wrinkling:
In spots, and they will not sit so perfectly as at
first. 1 have tried the damping process, and do
