Among tho pos8engera of tho steamer Yucatan, which has just arrived here, was Albeit Rapploye, tho newspaper correspondent, who, after a-lbree mouths' stay iu Cuba, was banished from tho island by 11 de creo of Caplain-gcncral Wcyler. Mr, Rappleyo in an interview said : "I unhesitatingly Btato that within thrco months tho insurgent cause iu Cuba will bo triumphant if tlio United States government will grant belligerent rights and givo to the Cubans anything resembling a fighting opportunity. The Spaniards are now ou tho defensive Every battle fought in Cuba in the last threo days have been invited by tho rebole. "The Cubans now practically hold tho island of Cuba. The troops of Spain havo beeu, as they are "nove, entirely on defensive When General Maceo started ou his western campaign one third of his men, 15,000 in number, were unarmed. Jlis forces havo engaged in battle with but thrco cartridges each, dependiug entirely on tho capture of the enemy's train for ammunition to con tinne tho fight. These men fight like tigers, aud with the supply of arms and ammunition supplied by tbo Bermuda, they are again marching towards Ha vana. If tbe Cubans had enough arms they could put 100,000 men in the field. Tho insurgent troops are well ollkered, and as perfectly organized as the Span ish. The Cubans have been so near Ha vana that the burning plantations could bo teen from the housetops, and tbe Cubans have captured places only a few miles from the capital. More than this. the Cubans control all the products of tho island. Thousands in Havana are suffering for fosd, as they are in all the seapotts, but they aro heart and soul with tbe Cubans and are willing to suffer. 'Spanish cruelty has uot been half de- scriled. Execution of prisoners are of daily occurrence. Spain kills all pris oners in Cuba." Clsneros' Manifesto. New Yokk, March 31. The Herald to day savs: A manifesto signed by Salvador Cis- ncros, president of the insurgent Cuban government has just reached the United States. In itCisneros states that the su gar estates which in the eastern division of the island have been permitted to grind ; while all others in the west have been prevented, do so simply because at the beginning of the war arrangements were mado between the proprietors of eaid estates and some of the Cuban lead ers whereby the former, in consideration of a "war tax" paid into the Cuban treasury, were granted the privilege of grinding under the protection of those leaders. The manifesto also states that the insurgent armies have not burned country dwellings except when used by Spanish troops as forts or garrisons, and that for the take of the families, wives and children of noncombatants fooJ is allowed to enter towns and cities at pres ent held by armies of Spain on the pay ment of an import duty. Cisneros most emphatically denies that bandits or outlaws form any jwrt or have any connection with the Cuban army, and proclaims that notwithstand ing the course being pursued by Spain toward captured insurgent soldiers and political prisoneis the Cuban govern ment will not retaliate. The manifesto concludes with these wonls : "We are now strong in numbers and in hopes, but if our armies should un fortunately suffer defeat in tbe field we will never give up. Cuba will perish with the world looking on before renoun cing her one great hops and aim inde pendence." Slowly Strangled. Havana, March 31. Never in mode rn times has there been a more sickening spectacle than that which today attended the public execution of the five Cubans, condemned to death by the garrote, "as murderers, violators aud incendiaries." Tbo troops were drawn up iu a hollow square and in the middle was placed a chair and post. Ruise, the public executioner, bad deputized his assistants to couduct the affair. The condemned men were brought into the square to meet their fate. Ono had confessed his guilt and affirmed the innocence of all the others, who also protested they were guiltless. Tho first man look his seat in the chair calmly, the iron collar was fixed about his neck and the cap was drawn over his' face. The executioner undertook to ap ply tho screw, but was so excited that his hand slipped repeatedly. The victim died by slow strangulation, einitttug the moat distressing cries. Tho second execution was accom plished with even moio distressing awk wardness, tho executioner being almost on the verge of collapse. Tho protests of the officers and priests forced Ruise to undertake tho third exe cution, but he did littlo better than his assistant had done. Ruise then literally fled from his post, leaving I1I3 assistants to put to death tho fifth unfortunate Cu ban, who suffered tho Baruo agonizing ex periences as his fellows. Acknowledged.

The theory of our government com prehends a system that is the simplest, purest, aud best conception of the sub ject by the human mind. It has no parallel in history. There is no other system of government where liberty in its full and trno sense can be engaged. It proceeds upon the idea that this is a country inhabited by a people eyery one of whom is, and of right ought to be, in reference to the lawe, the equal of every other one. The function of the govern ment and of its laws is to maintain this right and to secure its enjoyment, and in consideration for these blessings and ad vantages of government, each individual shall contribute to its support in propor tion to his means. It is a principle that aspires to the sublimity of that divine utterance of the world's Redeemer, "AH things whatso ever ye would that men should do unto you do you even so to them." An utter ance that has no equal iu all the learn ing, philosophy, and wisdom of men, Ihe promulgation of a principle that had its conception in diyinity. Put this the ory into practice by ihe enactment el just and impartial laws, aud we will have no army of paupers marchint? tn Washington, no tramps roving over the country, nor riotous strikes, where mur der and bloodshed defy the laws of man and the will of Jehovah, but we would have a thrifty, prosperous, free, ran- tented and happy people, each the re cipient of the fruits of his own labor. We beliovo ttat the function of govern ment is to protect every man alike whether rich or poor, humble or ex alted, in his life, liberty, and property, and that the greatness of a country con sists in the individual prosperity, wel fare and happiness of all its citizens. Deafness Cannot be Cured by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness and that is by constitutional remedies Deafness is caused by an inflamed con dition of the mucous lining of the Eus tachian Tube, When this tube gets in flamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is en tirely closed deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can betaken out this tube restored to ils normal con dition, hearing will ha destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by cat arrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces. We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free. F. J. Cheney fc Co., Toledo, O.
