There is one thing very peculiar, and that is that if the destruction of the Maine Occurred from c.n accident it is strange ;ha' it did mt occur sooner, and not v. hen in a harbor whose bottom is honeycombed forjual such a purpose: when all that was necessary to explode a torpedo was to attach the wire and press the electric button, and when it was sorroonded on all sides by enemies who hate this eountr : who denounced tf e arrival ot the Maine in that harbor in unmeasured terms, mny of whom would think they were aerving their country by accomplishing the destruction of the magnificent vessei. We repeat it was curious that no accident occurred before the arnv;! of the Maine in dangerous waters, and not so very curious either, v. hen the explosion took place with the surroundings were so favorable Prom Saturday's Daily.
