It was the mtenticn to renew the bombardment at cnnse to-day. but before the firm was be cun the Spaniard sent off two officer in small teat under a file of trace to announce to Capt.

The greater part ot th public are. of tear-, entirely ignorant cf th official cenditioa. but have a weJ-defined suspicion of what the de mands of the United States are. It is generally known that Cuba is lost to Spain, and tbe feeling, particularly among tho Government officials and th military, is Tery bitter. The latJer mvitain that they ccuM bold Havana teams: any force the United Bute m-ht bring against the city. and are outspvken la their ladignaMaa that the Cuban capital should be evacuated without giving them an otportucity to uphoil the valor of the Spar is h arms. The Cuban are naturally highly elated, but they are careful to hid their joy frcm the loyal Spaniards. Th wealthy Spaniards and nearly all the business men are glad the war is over. and the latter hope soon f or a reriral cf trade. whieh is now dead. The ultra-loval Spaniards declare that the United States are sbnr-.g their temporary ad vantage and that their aeilca is in a great measure due to the fact that they are counting ta the selfishness of th European nations to prevent any cf them from tnterveaiag ta behalf cf Spain.
