(Special to Atlanta Jourivil.) Washington, Oct 21.-Tho Paris dispatches with relation to the peace negotiations strengthen the belief hero in the posibility of a deadlock in the comm-iission. The pross dispatches from Piaris are misleading in their roforences to Spain's relinquish ment of sovereignty over Cuba. The treatment of this question as still opet *or disvussion is absurd in viow of the f tet that so oreignty has already been relin quishod by the operation of the pro tocol signed in Washington, and that the evacuation of the is4laudk, is in p rogress. Thle fact, h owever, that the Snish commissioners are try - ing~ to avoid the direct issuenwhich is to be considered by the commni.uion is appar. nt to the admfli nistraition here, anid no motive for this avoidanice can be .imagined except ani underly ing purpOse to cloud the questioni so as to give Spain an op)portunity to re tire from the negotiations with the peace conditions still uinsettleid. The expression attributed to one of the Spanish comenissioners that the Spaniards miight snbmit under compulsion to the dictates of this goverinmenut, butt that they could not be compelled to subscribe to them, is contirpatory of this theory of Span ishi 'do'Signsl.' SERvES rTHEuR DIONITY. T1he Spantish aipparon Ily ft el that it will serve their dignity better to yield! a stubborn subm)ifssOIn to force without making any conCOssionis iln tihe treaty of peace, hnut maintaining asv'at titude of hostility. In a a afo little to risk alnd that they will in vAlve this government in comnplica tion atnd emb)arrassmnft., A failure of the peace negotiations would comn p d1 the United States to continue the land aind military forces on~ a war footing withont any dlefinito prs pect with a conclusion of hostilli.~A, and10 w.nidl probably compel a con-* tinonis mnilitary occupation of terri tory which it is the designt or this go)verrnmenit to establish under .a loca1 governmtl[I.

OUR OOVERNMENT FIRM. It may be stated positively, how ever, that the probabilities of a ch a design on the part of Spain, and n0 ConSiderations thalt can bo Slg gested, will ihduce this governient to rocedo froim th1e position assuied aind that if Spain shall defeat the poco negotiations' she will be coi pelled to siffer the consequonces IC cording to the rules of war. The whAl character of (ho war, if hostilities have to be resumed on account of the bad faith of Spain will 10 changeid. Since the uspn sion Of hostil itio4, t his governmnent has nlot b)een idle. The niaval (estab lishmnent has bmeen miat eriallyun p)roved and is ini a better 'onIditio01 for aggressive operations t han it has beeni at any timo before since the war began. A strong fleet could be sort,it Spain sh waters onl very shortntico anid its operations wvould riot be0 limited as5 was the caiso (arly in the wvar, by the necessity of miaini taining blockades and p)rotect ing our OWn coast. The army, while uiinm erically reduced, it is more effective ly organized and3( botter capable of severe service. This government has niot lost sight at any time of tho possibility of Spain's proving ber i nsincerity inl the poeace niegot iations anid is pe pared to act, if it shall hecomoi necessary.
