These two gentlemen have succeeded in mak ing raw sugar which is much superior to tliat llrst mailu by Air. Peterson about two months ago.

Feb. 10 The nubile annre. henslou aud the gravity of the situa tion on this island can hnrdly be over stated. There is a concensus of opin ion that a crisis Is at hand. Gen. Wil ier has left Porto Klco for Havana. It is not ulono tho approach of the new comimiuder-ln-chicf that causes anxiety und Intensities feeling, but the general consciousness that tho military, political and tlnancial strain is too severe to last long. The Spanish opinion Is that real war is about to Iks made, und that In n brief campaign it will be bhown that the march of the Insurgents through tho island could not havo happened If tho regular army had been actively handled Tho Cubans claim that they grow stronger In tho field and that tho rebel forces arc being strengthened by bands from tho east that will balance tho additional troops from Spain. It would be vain to assert in dividual views as to the value of these cialms. One tiling is certain, tho con centration of the armies in tho Prov ince of Havana promises combats of Increasing importance and decisive re sults before the end of March. Tho excitability of the sympathizers with the insurgents about General Weyler is almost incredible. His com ing is a nightmare to the Cuban autonomists, who anticipate relentless persecution and aro largely, according to their ability, tuking refuge in the States.
