T>. f. The not Son of 1 lu* Cuban Convention on the Flntt Atuotulnionl lias proved unsatisfactory to tlte United*Slates. It is so unsalis Nirmrv iiwii n 11:1s inspired auger anions ''1? President's advisers, ami lias led to the taking of n tone much li'ss conciliatory toward tho Cubans than any that has hitherto been taken. At the Cabinet meeting on I'riday it was derided to reject uneqtiivocally the action of Cuba on the IMatt Aniendineut. Secretary Hoot was directed to inform (General Wood of the Ptvsident's decision. The Cabinet held that the amendments and interpretations and the wealth of whereases placed by the Cuban Convention upon the Amendment 1 amounted to a practical nioditication. such as was beyond the power of this (Government to accept. The message of rejection sent to (General Wood advises the Cubans in unqualilied ian| guace that there Is no power resting in the T'niteil States ("Government to change the terms of the IMatt Amendment and that this (Government insists on the acceptance of the IMatt Amendment. without change or qunlitication. The three main points in which the action of the Cuban Constitutional Convention is regarded as unsatisfactory relate. it is said. to coaling stations, sanitation, and intervention. The Cuban Convention took from the coaling stations paragraph of j the IMatt Amendment its obligatory I character, and merely authorized the 1 Cuban (Government, in its judgment, to | allow the United States to possess ] 'coaling or naval stations. The United i States will insist on an absolute agreement to grant these coaling stations. With respect to sanitation, the (Tit linns <U? not agree tu carry out plans already devised. and in accepting the I'latt Aniondnu'Pt modify Its provisions so as to change them conshlcrnlily. In tin* unit tor of intervention the objection is tliat the Cubans have so changed this vitally imp irtant part of Hi" IMalt Amendment as to make tin* right to intervene an ambiguous and doubtful mat tor. whereas tin* United States insists on a straight. tu: * | equivoealde acknowledgement of its right to intervene when in its judgment intervention is neeessttry to assure Cui ban independence or a stable govern' inont. The patience of the Administration i Is exhausted and the policy of concilia! tion and explanation seems to have [ vanished. In surrounding the I'latt Amendment with modilications*, and J in adding clauses to it. the Cubans I have given much offence; but more I irritation is felt over their action in | endeavoring to make their interviews ! with Secretary Root a part of a law | adopted by the American Congress. Something of this feeling was voiced | by Genera) Grosvcnor, of Ohio, after ! the decision of the President became I known. General Grosvcnor said, when ] asked if be thought the decision would 1 be likely to lie regarded as a surprise: "A surprise to whom? Who imagined that those fellows would be allowed to sit in Congress down there j in Culm and amend laws of the United [States? Wo luivc stood all the nonsense we are going t<> from them. The sooner time ?i.i?. ? i: > - !.-> hmiii>IIIU,>s :t11?i attend to business the better it will lie for them. for if Congress over ucts another shot t ihctn, they won't yet off so easily us they din before."

H is tlie pttrpo'e of the Administration to itnpress upon the Cubans that the 1'latt Amendment is law. ami that they have no power to chantxe i;.

THE OLD SOLDIERS WERE HAPPY. 1 hey Alet and Talked About the Days oi Forty V ears Ago, and Wept and Laughed. Forty years have passed sinee these soldit r boys lirst shouldered arms and htu ried to the front. No sueh array of patriots were ever seen, for there was not a tory among them nor a foreign hireling, and even the northern-horn , .v.?.v.ir. in ilit" souiii volunteered with one aeeord and cast their lives and property in the common peril of their adopted state. To that class we owe all the more honor for it was a great heart struggle to sever the bonds that bourn! them to their kindred and the place of their birth. Forty years have not effaced nor dimmed the memory of those four long years trotn the minds of the veterans who gathered at the Memphis reunion. As time rolls on they seem the more eager to congregate and commune together; and happily, there are none now to molest or make them afraid. Happily the soldiers of the blue and the gray are becoming every year the more considerate of the feeling and principles of each other. The soldiers, 1 say those who fought against us? for the bravest are the tenderest. It is the politicians who saw the battle from afar, who still refuse to give us hack our llags and are still worrying over the rebel brigadiers whom w? sent to congress. Hut time is a good doctor, and soft words take away wrath. That was a grand convocation that jHiiiiufu iiu' precis ot .Memphis. Hearts t eat rapidly and eyes wore moist wi111 tears? "Wliilo nn niory lingered o'er the ?.id r< \ iew Of joys that faded like the morning dew." That wr.s a beautiful prayer sent up to heaven !>y our beloved grand chappain. Kcv. .1.

Our soldiers fought a pood fight. on patriotic principles. an-i it rejoices us that they have bept the faith and are as true now to the nation as they were then to tlio principles for whidi they fought. Those principles arc not dead; and we I believe that if this republican powrn- I mi nt is preserved from the domlna- J tion of imperialism, with which it is I threatened.

Old man Isham did the same thing, and so inn i>r. i-aucrson tnrcsn out tne worst boys at our Manual Labor school; but now it is the boys who rule the teachers and make demands, and the consequence is our colleges have no discipline and hazing seetns t he as popular as ever. 1 thought that this hazing business was a modern invention, but in the second volume 01* "American Literature*' 1 find a b tt r or jonu Lawson. a Scotchman, who lived for years among the North Carolina Indians. He is waiting to his folks at home in 1714 about the customs . f those Indians. and says the way they make warriors of their young men is to husquenaw them in early manhood. They are shut up in a dark leg house for six weeks, and kept half st at veil anil made to drink a deeo Hon of pellitory bark, which renders them raving mad. They make tlie most dismal, hellish cries and howling- ever heard. When given a little meat it is mixed wit it nasty, loathsome, filthy stuff. After six week's they come nit as poor ami miserable as creatures ever become. Some of them die under this diabolical treatment, and s y.ie young men run away to avoid it. The savages told mo that this hardened them to the fatigues of wcY and kills off the weak and infirm and cowardly who would bring disgarce upon the nation. Ilu.*.quenawlng!
