No les* than 40,000 of these uns-asonabln lads, after two ^or three months of drill, are to be sent to Cuba, the first.^f them arriving be fore Christmas. Such are the troops with which Weyler hopes to crush the veteran legions of Gomez and Ma- oeo! By sucu measures Tipaiff thas swelled her army to 300,000 o’en and boys in two years. In nineteen months she has sent 165,551 of them to Cuba. There were already here some 12.000, and 15,000 more volunteers, making a total-of 192,551. This number has now boon reduced to less than 150,000, showing a fiarful roll of deaths anJ disabilities on the field and in tho hos pital. Besides this appalling drain upon, the young manhood of the nation, there is a corresponding drain upon the treasury. Nineteen months of war have cost fuijy $90,000,000, and the present rate ol expense Is $11,000,000 a month. And still the -end is qot in sight.

The Cubans •ay : £* If we have the sky and tha •oil. A can restore Cuba: with ths Spaniard we never can. Therefore we will starve him out; we will destroy all tho country estates, which afford bis solders food, and thecounlry houses which give him shelter and defence. Therefore all property must go. As the Russians fired Moscow to save themselves from the French, and the Dutch cut tho dtkes in Holland to de feat the Spaniard in Alva’s time, so we will burn our homes to drive the Spaniard out of Cuba.” The Spaniard naturally retorts by deliberately setting to wdek to exter minate a race capable of destruction. “ Deienda eat Catbago” If the mandate that has gone from Madrid to Captain- Gsneral Weyler, and he is only execut ing the orders of hid Government when is using a!I his power to'eradicate 'such a race of incendiaries ana insur rectionists, in the Spanish view. Between the two—for war is a rough game, and neither rosewater nor kid gloves Fuit it—$50,000,000 of American property is being destroyed and thou sands of American citizens reduced to abject poverty. This is no high'y colored picture; it is a fact. Men, wo- men and children are murdered and cruiting ground in the majority of the Creole population, whites and colored people ^aliko, and an inexhaustible tupply of arms, money and ammunition from their friends and sympathizers in the.
