Merr's arrival, anal before his appointment, and had been

be toot the occasion to address a note to the government,
which is nut likely to have a conciliatory iIIitUPIC• on the

Mr. Wilde, representing the Canal Company, arrived •
little before the recent disturbances, end after the espahisa
et Sr. l'ineda, concluded a new contract with Montenegro.
Against this contract, the government at Leon has Limed a
formal protest, declaring it null in all its parts. The tenor
of the new contract is to separate the transit privileges of
the old charter from the canal, taking all that is vsluable,
and leaving the canal to its fate. The entire matter now
depends, it would seem, upon the success of the govern-
ment at Leon. If that prevails, it is likely all the contracts
will be revoked, and the whole canal question again thrown
open. That Altana* will succeed hardly admits of doubt,
as pent) Oily the other states of the federation will feel
bound to interfere in his favour, after having recognised
authority.
CUBA. _ • _

-----
We learn from Havana that a large number of
American prisoners taken with Lopez have been sent
to Spain. Some few yet remain in prison, and a few
more have been caught in the mountains. The
British consul has distinguished himself by his hu-
mane attention to these unfortunate men, and has
been publicly thanked by them. On the other hand,
the American consul has everywhere been denounced
for his coldblooded diwegard for his fellow country-

men. We often have inch fellows in office. This
man is a Welshman.

We have the Diario and other men to the 17th
inst. from Havana, from which we translate some
items : _

The Diario denies, in strong and indignant language, the
alleged cruelties which were said to he inflicted upon the
dead bodies of the st) Americans executed, and sap it is al
a lie. They deserved everything alleged for their piracies
and murders, but they were shot, it says, with decency and
solemnity. We have a long account of Blumenthal, a sort
of colonel in the expedition. lie is a Prussian, bora of a
French family. Born a soldier, he was at the conquest of
Algiers, passed thence to Poland, figured in the revolution
there, went thence to Arabia under Mehemet Ali, served
afterwards in the army of the Sultan; in 1847 went
to France, then participated in the Hungarian revolution,
was at Comorn under lalapka,afterwarth came to New York,
giving lessons is langeages, passed thence to New Orleans,
with letters to the Delta ultice, and finally got into the Filli-
buster cxpcditon. The llavannah papers are making very
merry over the Fillibuster stories of victories that were
, published in the United States, particularly over the stories
' that came from New Orleans. The captain-general has
been making a brief visit of congratulation to the people
residing on the scenes if the recent fights. lie and others
went to recompense the faithful and the brave, and to
thank the ilefeaders of the island. The army have been
especially app,auded fur the loyalty and courage they dis-
played. Preparations are making in all parts of the island
to take care of, provide for, and reward the families of
the soldiers killed in the engageme..ts, and for the wounded
soldiers also. There appears to ho the greatest enthusiasm
and devotion on the part of the Creoles to the government,
which has saved them from the "liberty " the Americans
threatened to give them. There were numerous fetes and
celebrations in different parts of the island, in honour of
the defeat of the invaders, and the glory of Spanish arms.
One at Villa Clara is particularly noted for its enthu-
siasm. Tranquillity. is entirely restored—confidence in
the security and invincibility of the government seems to
be greater than ever—and whatever dissatisfaction there
may be, there is not the least appearance of it on the
surface of society. The Creoles seem to be particularly
prominent in their expressions of gratification. A solemn
Te Deum was chanted on the 10th in the cathedral, in
consequence of the success of the Spanish arms. What the
Nati,mal Intelligeseer and Republic said on Cuban affairs,
and of the course of the United States government, has
been particularly noted and commented upon in Cuba, as
showing the feelings and dispo.itioa of the President and
his cabinet. All bad feeling against the people of the
United States seems to be subsiding, and the Fillibuster
movement seems to be attributed now in Cuba to the der-
perate and reckless classes of men who got it up. Nearly
80,090 dollars had been contributed in Havana for the re-
lief of the f unifies of those killed and wounded in battles
with the Lopez party. At a benefit at the '1 aeon 'Theatre
over 8,000 dollars were realised. Oa the 9th a grand Te
Deum was performed at the cathedral in honour of the de-
ceased. On the same day the troops were reviewed, and
Oeuend Concha decorated many of the participants in the
late engagements.

It may be as well to say in this place that further
and sufficient proof has reached this country from
Havana, to establish the fact that the bodies of the
Americans who were shot there were grossly and
infamously mutilated. The Spanish minister in Lon-
don is therefore mistaken.

TAMAR SILTIZ LEAD MINING COMPANY.—The
annual meeting of this company was held yesterday, at the
°Mee in Salvador House, Bishopsgate-street, 0. B. Carr,
Esq., in the chair. The report was read, which stated that
the cost of the mine for the last twelve months was
17,6071. 55., and the returns 18,613/. ifs. 10d., leaving •
profit of 1,0381. 91. 9d., to which must be added the balance
at the last annual meeting of 2,5331. 95., and the reserve
fund of 2,2991. 14s. 3d., making the assets 6,1761. 1.25. 6d.
The mine was in a better condition than at any other
period, and a most important discovery had been made at
the 203 fathom level, where in one pitching 42 tons of ore
had been produced in one month. One unfavourable fea-
ture of the report was the probability of a serious loss
I through some bills of the smelting tstablishment, on which,
however, some dividend might be realised. The Chairman
moved the adoption of the report. Mr. Birdseye seconded
the motion. He advised the continuation of the smelting
works, by which he contended they saved at least 2,0001.
a year. Mr. P. Johns= said their smelting works were in
sash a state now as would lead to a prohtable working.
Mr. Barclay thought with the prospect of a probable lon of
6,00 W through the smelting bills there was no likelihood of
a dividend. The Chairman thought that question had
better remala over a little longer till the fate of these bills
was known. The report was then agreed to, and after a
vote of thous to the chairman the meeting adjourned.
