Specimen of the War Talk Madrid Papers Indulge In. To illustrate the Bort of matter about Cuba and Cuban affairs on which the Spanish leading public is fed, (he follow ing translation from El Pais, of Madrid, may be of tome interest. From a lead ing article, entitled ''Blood and Gold," theeo extracts are taken, says a Wash ington correspondent of the New York Tribune : "Two hundred and twenty thousand soldiers, thousands ot leagues from tho mother country, in the mountains of the island of Cnba, on tho borders of the harbor of Manilla, rush on the tame day to battle, and, storming the-enemies' pen eitiona, cry 'Viva Eapaual' so that the waves of the Chiua sea and of I lie Carib bean sea will carry this cry to Japan and (o the United States warning them that the .Spanish nation does not shirk any Bicrilice when it is a question of the de fense f its sacred territorv. The people that have this army can rest tranquil in the po3eession of a national Lome, and not fear the contingencies of the future nor tho threats of the powerful, who be lieve that, because they have many in habitant?, much territory and much money, that makes them invincible. "There are in prospect, perhaps, in the future davs of battle and glory for our country. Perhaps the L'OO.UCO Span ish young iLen who fight in the inland of Cuba are to be called (o a great battle, the equal of which dots not exist ia the military annals of the world. We recall in history that handful of Greeks who conquered Atia under Alexander; that hundred of Spaniards who, following Corlcs, destroyed tiie Mexican empire. There still burns Spanish Mood in tho veins of the inhabitants of Klunda, of Colorado, of California, of Texas, provinces infamously wrested from, our brother Mexico by the United Stales, wc still have a powerful squadron which, with our tfunsalantic lsleamert, can in a few day laud 200,000 warriors, tried and veterans, on the coasts of Nuith Amet ica. Money we do not want, because to keep this army in the wild bash costs us ', more than it would cost t:s in the rich and healthy meadows of Florida. We woald obtain more glory fighting and humiliating the proud and civilized Yankees than the brutal and giant ne groes cl Jlaceo. e would not meu any moio valor to battle face lo face on extensive plains than what we show in treacherous ambushes of the thickets. A greater profit for Spain will be to retain :1s power provinces on the conti- 'pain for Let tho United States know it. Spain has confi dence in her army, navy and privateers ; and, far freni trembling when there reaches her ears the clamor of the vulgar threats of the Yankee, she feeU a Fecret satisfaction, thinking that if she wishes, if she is obliged, if she is forced to it, ehe can show the Aoglo-Saxous that be fore them we took possession of the .VmericiM! lauds, aud that we can again return, burning the ship." Bank Failures. NEEDED LEGISLATION. After a careful inquiry info the causes of circuit court expenses it is ascertained that many criminal cases are sent np from juslico'ts courts. Bat when they come into court, conviction cannot be had for the want of sufficient erWesce, It is alio found that many limes the cases are instigated for spite. work. One neighbor gets into some difficulty with PIANOS. In order to cloee out oar stock of tew and second hand pianos, wc will effer them at cost. It is our intention to close ont qnr business as quickly as possible, and in order.to do this we will be com pelled to sell at a very low figure and on each email installments that it will not pay yon to rent. Therefore we will call in n -'- i i nil uur reuieu planus auu orgaus anu giye another relating to tho ownership of j you the benefit that we have received as stock, such as a hog, a calf, a horse, a cow, cr some other cause of a like na ture; the offended man goes before a jus tice or the grand jury and makes a com plaint of larceny, burglary or a threat to kill, or do some bodily barm, and then by pliable expert testimony the accused is bound' over or indicted as the case maybe, and a crowd of witnesses are summoned to appear at conrt. And when the case comes on and the wit nesses are put on the stand they know nothing, under the rules of practice, that is sufficient to convict and the accused is turned loose, but the ex pense to the taxpayer has run up often into thousands of dollars, instances of which are fresh in the minds of our tax payers. AnJ what is more, as a rule those who make complaints are those who pay little or no taxes. They get a fee from the county as a prosecuting n-itnes3 at no expense for an attorney the district attorney attends lo his case. This practice ought to be stopped it possible. This can be done by mating it obligatory upon overy person who in stitutes criminal actions, other than for killing a person, to give bonds for the cost in case of a failure to convict is chaiged in the complaint. If that was law no one would make complaint till ha got sufficient evidence to fasten conviction upon the person charged. A very large portion of the county's expense grow out of just such as refened to above. Much of it is spite work and should be discontinued by requiring such persons who make charges to pay the cost in case cf failure to convict.

Many oi our populist Irieutls are chuckliug with intense delight over the failures of several national banks tiuricg ttiis mouth and referring to iheui ad the result of 3IcKin!e's election. They do not stop to consider that those same bink6 would have failed all the same had Bryan beea elected, just aa all other failures occur, viz: Because the busi ness oi those liauks had not been con ducted on eound business principles Any bank just the same aa mercantile tirni or auv other busicesa enterprise which conducts its busicess iu a reckless I unbusicc;a like way must sooner or later fail, it matters not what political patty is in control oi the government. Mc Kiuley's election had no more to do with those failures than the man in the moon. Those banks had lojiif d oat their depos its without suilicient seeunty aud when depositors Leuu to call in their depos its they found their money was not there; just ae such thiuga have always been and will doubtless continue to do for all time, or as long as men will take their money to banks for safe keeping without adequate security. Tho way those failing banks had been managed, thoy were bound to fail, no matter who is at tho head of the government. CLEARER THAN IT WAS. Vice-President Hammond, who is known as the man who wreckd the Illi nois National bank, is a lG-to-1 free-silver man anil the only free-silver man of any conspienity among the bankers of Chicago. Mr. Dreyer, whose concern had $500, 00J of the dead bank's money, and Mr. Carl Moll, cashier of the wrecked institu tion, have been iu high favor with Gov ernor Altgeld and have been hid appoint ees on park boards and his advisers in the disposal of public funds. It is much more easy to understand than it was a short time ago why Ham mond has been a free-silver advocate. Ho has cot been deceived in the least by the assertion that free coinage would make 16 ounces of silver worth as much aa one oum.e cf gold. He knows Letter than that. Hekuowsthat Itee coinage vTouId give us a dollar worth only about half as much as the present dollar. That is why he has been an advocate of free-silver coinage. Ho has sought to double the nominal value of certain as sets br havinc the actual value of the dollar. He has been a free-silver man for the same reason that dishonest debt ors evervwhere have been iree-silver men. Chicago Chronicle (dem.l If the free-silyeritea can get any con solation out of the bursting of national banks they will lind it in the fact that a 10 to I free coinage advocate, was one of the managers of the biggest bauk in tho country, viz , Illinois National bank cf Chicago. rent.

Views of leading Spaniards concerning Americans aud their opinions' on the Cubau affairs. Proceeding to compare America with wealthy banks, Senor Pidal argues that she will think twice beioro attacking the poor hidalgo whose only defense is his ancestral wotd. "Spain must not display brayado," Senor Pidal continues, "but a calm de termination to preserve Ler colonies, confiding in the justice of her cause and leaving the result to Providence. Those who once shouted 'On to Berlin !' estab lished later the horrors of the commune. Sium is not invincible, but she is not a despicable enemy, and history shows that in manv iustancca a small, desper ate army has routed superior forces." General Pando writes that he knows thoroughly the offensive aud defensive power of the United States, and ho kuows the Americans themselves, and is convinced that thoy are inferior to tho Spaniards. Therefore, America would bj the greatest sufferer at first. "Though this is my opinion as a mili tary mail, said General Pando, "as a citi zen I do not desiro war. AVho knows where the conflict would end?" Getieral Pando urges the liuportaueo o( immediate diplomatic efforts in Mad rid an I Washington to settle the difH culty, and, if possible, to terminate the rebellion without fighting to the bitter end. 'Let America have achauce," Getieral Pando is quoted as saying, "to show by bv her acts whether her lriemlship is sincere, .Moiluug is so u.ttigerous as ae lay. But whatever comes, the Spanish army is ready to repeat the deeds of our forofathers in America iu defeiuc o country and honor." Notice of Annual .Meeting.
