nated and under the orders of their officers, and subject to control of the aforesaid

SENTIMENTS OF THE SPANISH ARMY.
The following explanatory note waa cabled the war department on the 21st inst:
"Soldiers of the American Army: We would not be fulfilling our duty as well born men
in whose breast there lives gratitude and courtesy, should we embark for our beloved Spain with
out Bending to you our most cordial and sincere good wishes and farewell. We fought you with
ardor, wilh all our strength, endeavoring to gain the victory, but without the slightest rancor or
hate towards the American nation. We have been vanquished by you (so our generals and
chiefs judged in signing the capitulation), but our surrender and the bloody battles proceeding
it have left in our souls no place for resentment against the men who fought us nobly and gal
lantly. You fought in compliance with the same call of duty as we, for we all but represent the
power of our respective states.
"You fought us as men, face to face, and with great courage, as before stated, a quality
which we have not met during the three years we have carried on this war against a people
without morals, without conscience and of doubtful origin, who could not confront the enemy,
but hidden, shot their noble victims from ambush, and then immediately fled. This was the
kind of warfare we had to sustain in this unfortunate land. You have complied exactly with
all the laws and usages of war as recognized by the armies of the moat civilized nations of the
world; have given honorable burial to the dead ot the vanquished; have cured their wounded
with humanity have respected and cared for your prisoners and their comfort, and, lastly, to us,
whose condition was terrible, you have given freely of food, of your stock of medicines, and you
have honored us with distinguished courtesy, for, after the fighting the two armies mingled with
the utmost harmony.
"With this high sentiment of appreciation from us, all there remains but to express our fare
well, and with the greatest sincerity, we wish you all happiness and health in thi3 land which
will no longer belong to our dear Spain, but will be yours, who have captured it by force and
watered it with your blood, as your conscience called for, under the demand of civilization and
humanity, but the descenders of Congo and Guinea, mingled with the blood of unscrupulous
Spaniards and of traitors and adventurers, these people are not able to exercise or enjoy their
liberty, for they will find it a burden to comply with the laws which govern civilized communi
ties. "From 11,000 Spanish soldiers. PEDRO LOPEZ DE CASTILLO.
