World 2 00 SATURDAY - - MAliCH 19, 1S9S OBSERVATIONS BY PJlOCTOll. The statement made by Senator Proctor in the senate Thursday ma terially increased the prospect of in torvention by this country in the Cuban war. Senator Proctor went to Cuba as a dispassionate observer and returns to this country horrified at the warfare Spain has carried on. It was a striking scene in the senate when Proctor arose and made known the results of his personal observa tions, and the attention paid to his remarks shows how deep is the in tcrest taken in this question. The horrible condition existing in Cuba can be tealized from these words ot Tractor : "Outside of Havana all is changed. 3t is not peace, nor is it war; it is desolation and destruction, misery and starvation. Every town and -village is surrounded by a trocha, a sort of rifle pit, but constructed on a plan new to me, dirt being thrown up on the outside and the barbed wire fence on the other side of the trench. I saw no house or hut in ihe dOO miles of railroad rides from Pinar del Rio province in the west, -(cross the full width of Havana and .Matanzas provinces and to Sngua la Grande, on the north shore, and to Oenfuegos, on the south shore of Santa Clara, except within the Span ish trocbas. There arc no domestic animals or crops on the rich Acids and pastures, except such as are un der guard in the immediate vicinity of the towns. In other words, the Spaniards hol.l in those four western provinces just what their army sits on. Every man, woman and child, and cverj' domestic animal, wherever the columns have marched, is under guard and within their so-called for tifications. To describe one place is to describe all." Libciia is probably the only col ony in Africa in which the colonists acquired n right by purchase. The .American Negiocs who emigrated to Liberia under the direction of the American Colonization Society did not go into Africa as claimants of any specified territory, but they bought outright a district that suited their purposes for experiment in re publican government. As the years have gone by the republic has been enlarged, but always by purchase. The European rowers represented in Africa took possession ot certain native fctates and proceeded to make them over as adjuncts or dependen cies of European states. The re public of Liberia was established it, 1847. It is not as much in the way of European powers as the South African republic, and it has been free from invasion for forty years, because the people have attended strictly to their own business, and "because it was understood that in omc way the little republic was under the protection of the United States. Certainly this country ought to have a friendly interest in Liberia, .and that interest ouht to go far aougb to protect it from undue in cidence by European power?. Ho oue believes the report tli.it General Weyler lm admitted Imv Jog laid (be mines in Havana harbor ,wbieb .multed in tbe explosion of .U:iHainW2,,Pere j.litlo doubt Tmt ,lut .tbftMliinei cxiit, nnd tlint probably Weyler laid them, but it is hardly reasonable tbAt ho is writing tho fact down, as tlio letter may full into the hands of vigilant newspaper correspondents. This report is an other emanation from yellow jonr-nnlistn. The Fourth of July orators have much material furnished them by the action of congress in voting tho wan appropriation. The obliterating of sectional lines between the North and South will be a pleasant theme to dwell upon. A united country now exists in deed as well as m name.
