We have some additional items of interest
from Buenos Ayres, by the bark Leopold, in ad-
dition to those reported last night.
On the 9Th April, an engagement took place
between the squadron of Urquiza-consis,ing OF
several steamers-and that of the Buenos Ayre
ans, consisting of FIVE or six sailing vessels
The action lasted two hours, and resulted
in the capture of two Of the best vessels of the
Buenos Ayreans, in one ofwhich was the Adj
miral of the feet, who deserted his vessel and
escaped in a boat into another. Some dozen
persons were killed, two officers wounded, and
all on board of two vessels taken prisoners
Among the prisoners was Mr. Graves, Jr be-
onging to an eminent Spanish house in Buenos
Ayres, and we'll known in this country, fer whose
lie fears Were entertiined'
The Captain of the Leopold states that he
was present when Buenos Ayrean Colonel,
wounded in an engagement, was brought in
prisoner by the outsiders and that he saw his
head cut off
Just as the Leopold left there was rumor
that the Buenos Ayreans had accepted the me
diation of the Brazilian an@ Bolivian Ministers.
Urquiza was attempting to purchase additional
steamers for the purpose of blockading Bucnos
Ayres. He had also opened the ports of Zarate,
San Fernando and Salada as outlets for goods
from the interior.

The following is too good to be lost. We
copy it from the Columbia (Texas) Democrat
Its worthy of extensive circulation.

A good deal has been said, and we'll said, alb ut
men speaking of other mems wives as their la
dies. II would sound very ridiculous to hear a
lady cali her husband my gentleman, or ask an
other lady where her gentleman was, when in
curing about her husband. We'll, one is just as
bad as the other; give Us plain husband and
plain wife, and plain way Of calling people and
things by their right names. We should not be
at all surprised if that class of society who hunt
for roundabout ways to express their ideas, did
not in little while, when inquiring about one s
sons and daughters, adopt such modes of ex-
pressions as these; elbow is your oldest mascu-
line off-spring;" or, SHOW is the little femi-
nine darling, who addresses you as parent ?'-
Or when speaking of our negroes, allude to
them - our Ethiopian bondsmen. We can
imagine one of those individuals entering a
complaint in the following language: "My dear
gentleman, your specimen of the canine species
was by your youngest masculine offspring set
upon my lady's feline pet and had il not been
for your Oldest feminine Ethiopian bendswoman,
il would BY compulsion have been forced to de-
part this life"

arrived at Southampton after passage Of lit.

This is one day less than the Commodore antic-
ipa,ed.
Both in the House of Lords and Commons
the Government declined to answer the plain
question put to if, whether it had given direc-
tons to Admiral DuNDAs to proceed with the
British fleet lying at Malta to the Dardanelles,
SO that the English Government is still noncom-
initial on the Turkish question.
There had been debate in the House of
Lords on the Cuban Slave Question, at which,
by the way, Mrs Stowe was present. The
debate took place on the presentation by the
Earl Of CARLISLE of petition from the ladies
Of Kingston, Jamaica, compiainingiof the i'm
portation OF slaves into Cuba. The Earl went
to state his case in three hours speech:
s'True it Che said my Lords, that no SOON
er does my Captain General OF Cuba seem to
respect the faith of treaties, and the laws alike
of humanity and honor, than very speedily, for
some cause or other, he is sure TO be removed,
in order to give place TO some less scrupulous
and more accommodating functonary in his
stead. NV noble friend will, | am sure, not de-
nv that gross derelections of their duty have
been frequently manifested on the part Of the
Spanish Government. Why talk of causes of
war with Spain? Sure | am that Britain has
been over and over again embroied in long and
ruinous war on grounds which, in my judgment
were absolutely paltry in comparison with this.
Let me not be understood as expressing an opin-
ion that Britain is called upon to go to war with
SPAIN even for the SUPPRESSION of the slave trade.
But Spain ought to be told that if she does not
observe her treates-if she, almost alone of all
the nations of the earth, persists in this internal
traffic, she must, if her possession of Cuba is
ever endangered, be at least prepared TO find
Britain neutral in the conflict The Earl CON
cluded by hoping that Britain would strengthen
her fleet on the coast of Cuba.
The Earl Of CLARENDON, speaking for the
Government, replied that the treaties alluded to
had constantly, feloniously been violated by
Spain. Assurances had been received from the
Spanish Government that instructions were
sent to the Cuban authorities to discourage the
traffic. 1t is, however, mainly from the exer-
tons of Britain that the SUPPRESSION of the trade
is TO be expected, and nothing win be left UNI
done to accomplish that end.
