From the Morning News, Jan. l, 1853.
ViscOani Pdlmerston 10 Lord H0uden.
FOREIGN OFFICE, October 20, 1886

FOREIGN OFFICE, October TO- 1851
My LORD: | have received your lordship's
despatch of the LIST instant, transmitting a copy
Of IA note which you had received from NJ do
Mlrafores, in reply to your note of the Goth ult,
recommending, on behalf of her Majesty's Gov
eminent, that the Government of Spain should
follow the examples set them by New Granada
in declaring the total abolition of slavery in
that Republic.
With reference to that passage in NJ Mira
hOres's note, in which he states that the Span
ish Government cannot understand how her
Majesty's Government can seriously recon-
mend measure which would prove very inju-
riOus to the natives of Cuba when they also
recommend that the Spanish Government
should oonciate the affection of those Cubans,
have to instruct your lordship to observe to
Nj. dc Miraiiores that the slaves of Cuba form
"A large portion, and by no means an unimport-
ant one, OF the population of Cuba, and that any
steps taken to provide for their emancipation
would therefore, ~ far as the black population
ia concerned, be quite in unison with the rec
ommendatiOn made by her Majesty's Govern
ment that measures should be adopted for con-
tentlng the people of Cuba, with view to se-
cure the connection between that island and
the Spanish Crown and it must be evident
that If the negro population of Cuba were rem
dered free, that fact would create most pow
ertul element of resistance to any scheme for
annexing Cuba to the United States, where
slavery still exists
With regard to the bearing which Negro
emancipation would have on the interests o.
the white proprietors, it may safely be affirm
ed that free labor costs less than slave labor
and it is indlsputable that free and content
ed peasantry are safer ncighbors for the veal
thy classes above them than iIl-treated and re
sentiu slaves and that slaves must, from the
nature of things, be more or less ill-treated, i,
a truth which belongs to the inherent prnc
| pies of human nature, and il quite as nevita
BILE as the resentment, however suppressed il
may be, which is the consequence of il.treat
mcnt.
1t does not seem, therefore, that the commu
nicatlOns which you were instructed to make
Of the measure which had been adopted by the
Government and Parliament of New Granada
can Justly be deemed AZ at all at variance with
the friendly sentiments felt and expressed by
her Majosty's Government towards Spain, with
relation to the affairs of Cuba | am &c,

city, as man not only of enterprise and sa.
gacty, but of the most unwayering problty and
uprightuess He carried this character with
him into his political career. He was univer-
sally known in Congress as man whose prin-
ciples were perfectly inaccessible to any i'm
proper influence of which he was conscious.
He was, in the most honorable acceptatlon OF
the term, Herkimer Democrat" and such
he would have remained, if he had lived In
Washington a century. He was not an orator,
nor was he ambitious of figuring az Il leader OF
political parties he was content with dong his
duty quietly and unobtrusively, and was not
content with doing anything less than his duty.
His loss is one which the country has good rea-
son to regret His remains we presume, will
reach the city this evening, on their way to his
late home, in Fairfield, Herkimer county. IL Is
understood that his death will be announced
in the House to-day by Timothy Jenkins, ESQ,

the same mess in Washington; and in the SEN

sentative who helped to pass the Compromise
should have had leave to stay at home; or
why the seats of so many recreant Free Soil

the course of Daniel Webster should have
