A\nScotchman named Angus McPherson, at present in tho city,\ncan relate experiences which he\npassed through on that Island,\none would scarcely believe to be\npossible in the nineteenth century, He was sent out from\nGlasgow by the Thompson Iron\ncompany tu put up a sugar refinery iipim a plantation in Ihe\nsoutheastern portion of the Island. Those more southerly\nprovinces nre given up almost\nexclusively to the production of\nsugar, and are divided into largo\nplantations with numbers of\nslaves\u2014criollos and bozales,\nWhen llie insurrection broke oyl\na couple of years ago this was\nthe headquarters of the insurgents, MoPherson and three\nother foreigners wore captured\none day by the native police, who\nproved to have joined the insur\ngents, and it was only by enlist\ning in tliat army they were able\nto save their lives. Being inech\nnines they were employed sharp\noning tlie machets or long knives\nVilli which every Cubali is armed,\nund repairing old rilles and muskets of all kinds, \"just the kind\nlo start a museum on.\" Not only\nthat but ho was forced to assist\nin raids upon plantation of the\nSpaniards, where everything\nwas. destroyed without delay.\nAll Ihe country occupied by Ibe\niiisiirgents is desert, and of the\nlower classes many are starving.\nWhile MoPherson was in Ihe\nc.iinp under Antonio Maceo, the\ncommander of the insurgents\narmy, an expedition of B50 regular Spanish troops was iiiinoun\nceil lu be marching against Ihem\nMaceo, whose force was fully\nseven or eight hundred, divided\nhis men into seven parties and\nstationed Ihem on each side nhuij.\ntbe dried bed of a stream, Tlu\nseventh parly was soul out lo\niime! the regulars und linviii\nIt rod a volley at them, lied down\nIho river bed. Of course llu\ni ildiers pursued them and before\nIbey were aware of their daiigei\nthe hidden force almost iinuihil-\nllled the whole parly. Thosi\nwho escaped passed on down flu\nbed of ibe stream and swum\nacross ibe river Into which it\njuiued, The dond men wore\nsnipped of tholr uniforms and\narms, while all llie private pro-\nparty ol! the dead men became\nthe spoil of those wdio got then\nlirst.

They\nimply take you out to the edge\nof tho village and say, '' Now rim\nfor it.\" and when you rim they\ncalmly shoot you down as an escaping prisoner, and justice is\njustified.\"\nMr. McPherson and a Germain\nwho was witli him escaped by\nseizing a steam launch belonging\nto the Alphonso XIII, on board\nof which a big iiosta was in progress, and steaming out into tho\nopen sea. They were picked up\non the second day by au American vessel and landed in Mexico\n\" I was getting S-lu a week then,\nsaid Mr. McPherson, \"but it\nwould take a good many \u00a715 to\ninduce me to go back thoro\nagain.\"\n\u25a0\u2022 That would be a good place\nfor you reporters,\" remarked\nMr, MoPherson : for he is very\naverse to having his name appeal'\nin print. \"You would survive\nabout live seconds after your\nbusiness was known.\" The re\nporter assured him that such\nwould make a good article ought\nlo be worth at least a column\u2014\nand asked if there wore any insects in Cuba. He evidently\nstruck- the right spot, for the\nstranger from Cuba became eloquent, \"Insects?\" said he:\n\"well. I should say so ! There\nis an insect in Cuba of the spider\nkind which gets under your toe\nnails and into your feel, not on\ntho outside, but right into tlio\nflesh : and may be they don't\nitch.\" Tlie reporter attempted\nto change the subject. \"Then\nthere's mosquetos, like bunibli\nbees, and all sorts of bugs, kinds\nand vermon, besides lizards and\nsnakes.\"\n\u2022\u25a0 I think tho Cubans will win.'\nsaid Mr. McPherson, in answer\nto a Iinni question, \"They are\nsupported by many privately,\nand by thousands in tho United\nStales.
