The Retort Uiscourteous.

AT convention OF cergymen, not long
since, it was proposed by one of the mem
bers, after they had dined, that each man
should entertain the company with some in
teresting remarks. Among the rest, one drew
upon his fancy and related dream. In hi:
dreai., he went 10 heaven, and he described
the golden streets, the river of silver, etc
As he concluded, onc OF tae dlvines, who
was somewhat noted for his ,pennrio"s ant
money saving habits, stepped up to the mar.

Troubles with spain.


WASHINGTON, Sunday, Junse
The CITY swarms with rumors, hope ex-
ageesated,* Of the capture in tho Gulf OF
one Of our sloops of war by Spanish frig-
ate--the former having apparently COM
menced the fight after demanding the sur
render or liberation of hundred or so Of
prisoners whom the Dons had captured on
a neutral island, under circumstances which
left no doubt Of their intention to form part
of Gen. Lopez's revolutionary foray on
Cuba. All is excitement here, and war
with Spain and the conquest Of Cuba seem
to be generally anticipated.
TRUST the news will yet prove greatlyex-
aggerated. And, in opposition to the head
long movement, will submit some consid-
erations in favor of forbearance and peace.
Spanish pride, Spanish jealousy, Spanish
temper-the world has heard enough of
them. 1t is, indeed, most unwise and in
sane on the part Of the Spaniards to force
our Government into collision. Gen. Tay-
lor and his Cabinet have full right to be
treated with confidence and generous ap-
probation by the Dons. No effort within
the compass of their authority has been
spared by our Administration to shield Gu
ba from invasion by our people, or by any
others sailing from our shores. The prompt
blockade Of Round Island and utter disper-
sion Of the adventures collected there. the
repeated seizures of vessels in this City and
elsewhere, the ordering of our feet to Ha-
vana to prevent any landing from our shores
on the coasts Of Cuba--in short every
act of our Government has been dicta-
ted by sincere and profound resolu-
ton to maintain to the utmost the faith of
Treaties and the comfy of Nations But
no Government can consent to see its citi-
gems, even though criminal in intent, seized
on neutral soil and, for mere intent to in
wade the territory of neighbor, consigned
to the dungeon, the drumhead and the vol
ley. We think, therefore, that no impartial
Judge will blame our Government for having
taken prompt and decided steps-since none
other would answer the purpose-for the
rescue of our citizens seized on the isle of
Contoy, who, however culpable in intent,
had done nothing as yet which should sub
ject them to the sanguinary discipline Of
the Moro Castle and Spanish Court Mar
tial.
But let us not forget that the faults of the
Spaniards have been committed under
circumstances of grave provocation. They
were troubling Notwithstanding with no
ones rights-w;shing evil to no one-when
our armed bands were hurled upon them.
That they should be irritated, msddened by
the onslaught is but natural--how could
they be otherwise? The blow menaced not
merely their power but their pride, and,
however feebly dealt, was painful remind
er that their country has lost its rank among
the great nations of Christendom Say it
was insane if you will, but could four hun

mission Of Caliiornis, and would sternly resist al
projects Of disunion.
