letter relative to the Cuba question: at some length,
and calls it " mares nest.'' The same paper, on
the 23d ut., after mentioning that cabinet coun.
Gil had been held on the 2lst ult, says:
g appears unnecessary to assure the public that
there is not the slightest foundation for the nego-
tiation attributed by Mr. Reynolds, the American
dipomatist, to Sir HI. Bulwer. In our remarks
upon the subject on Saturday, we gave the ex-
tract from Mr.. Reynolds letter as specimen Of
American creduliiy or American ingenuity-noth-
ing more. There is no intention, nor has such
doing any of the dreadful things attributed by Mr..
Reynolds to the English embassy at Madrid Mr.
Reynolds is, we fear, in the habit of going mares
nesting by moonlight"
