IMpRIsoNMENT OF MIR. CROSS.

Ii is stated in several papers that outrage has
been committed by the Spanish authorities OF Cuba
on Nathaniel Cross who has been enormously repre-
sented to be u. s. Consul at Matanzas.
Mr. Cross is net Consul of the U. s. at that or
any other place the error has arisen from the cir
cumsance that some time ago he was appointed by
Mr. Courts the Consul, to act as Consul or perhaps
Vice Consul, in his (Courts) absence.
For doing this MIR. Courts had no authority what
ever Mr.. Cross is not recognized by this Govern
ment as an officer, nor empowered such, nor has
he been recognized as such by the Spanish autho-
rites.
Mr. Courts is responsible to this Government and
to Spain for all the acts Of Mr. Cross.
1t appears that Mr. Cross has been arrested and i'm
prisoned, by the Spanish authorities, for an alleged
violation Of law, andis not in the power Of the Gov
eminent to relieve him from this arrest can il
with propriety complain of the Government of Spain,
as for the violation Of privileges immunities of a
public funciionary, known and respected as such and
entitled to the protection which the laws of nations
universally afford.
All that the United States can do is to let the Gov
eminent of Cuba know the interest which il takes in
hearing that Mr.. Cross an American citizen, in which
light alone and not as an officer Of the United States
he can be regarded with usual justice and good
treatment, and that no outrage is committed on him,
Ii such outrage is or should be committed, Mr.
Gloss will no doubt receive from his Government such
protection and redress any other ezen voluntarily
subiectng himself the laws of foreign countries
entitled to from his own.
The high reputation which Mr.. Cross enjoys and
tho felt in his condition BY his highly respecta
BILE friends in the United States, together with the ex
preston Of the wish Of this Government induce the
hope that the Spanish Authorities will orbear any
further prosecution of what appears to be groundesi
accusation, and will speedily restore him to liberty
