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? ton to pav for his purchases; butshe is said to have 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. -Mr. W. H. Herudon. of Springfield, Ul., for? merly the law partner of the late President Lin? coln," (?as greatly scandalized the admirers ot the latter K>y writing and publishing in the Toledo Free Ren-gjoulst a letter in which he declares that from earlv^onhood to the time of his death, Mr. Lincoln was xdaring and outspoken unbeliever. He savs that lib 1S34 he read with great avidity "Volnev's Ruins'<jnd Tom Paine's works, and that they became awl or Mr. Lincoln from 1834 to the eud of his lifo.x He also says that in 1835 "he wrote out a small WHTK on infidelity," which he intended to publish, bt?? which a friend con? siderately burnt. Mr. HeriHpn says that "this book was au attack upon tfi\ whole grounds or Christianity, and especially wasi\au attack upon the idea that Jesus was the Chrkxtbe true and only begotten Son or God, as the Chtvtjan world contended." He declares that when MxLincoln left Springfield fer Washington his rellglobvopln lons were unchanged. x^ '-..'Old Whackaway'' wa3 Thackeray's sciioo. name. 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? terial aid to the Insurrection; aware, moreover, that thc Cuba, the Lilian, thc expedition of Golconda and others urje lost resources; thal, the Insurrection is almost stifled in the Ea?t and ia the nncu Vllln?; iiiat:nTneVu?ita.AMaii<,f?? 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. NAPOLEON AUANGO. March 2S, 1870. 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 not approve |of lt.-Canadian Journal of Com? merce.
