abandoned being totally unfit for another voyage to
Africa, she was thereupon seized by the Spanish
thorities, who, you may depend upon it, make much
merit Of having captured SLAYER, abandoned by
her crew and cargoD The Lieutenant Governor OF
Narel, Colonel Justz, has since been removed from
his post under the pretence Of lacking vigance but
dare say his Excellency. when stating this oircun-
stance in proof OF his honest intentions, will forget
to add that the Colonel has since been pro
vidcd with better employment. Nothing more
has resulted in this case.
Nearly about the same time as the last mentioned
AFFAIR upwards Of two hundred and ninety slaves
were landed at Baen, town on the south coast, to
the westward of the Isle of Pines in the jurisdiction
Of Pnar del Rio, from brig, said to been the
old English brig Baracoa which got ashore in that
neiRhborhood some twelve or fourteen months ago,
ard was purchased by certain Don Ventura Peque-
no, who, TO the astonshment Of everybody obtained
for her. with the greatest apparent facility, the Span
ith flag The negroes were landed on the wharf ut
Baien in broad daylight, the people Of the town
gathering round them in crowds. AS the slaves
stepped on shore they were received by Don Manuel
Calvo, the director Of the coasting steamers
which run between Batabano and Bailen, and
Don Pho Dias, who marched the negroes pub
lely through the town to his estate, FL Vale,
distant from Bailen about nine miles. After the ne
groes were landed, the brig got under weigh to
sail for Havana but she missed stays and drifted on
. fandbank, where she stuck fast, and finding it inn
possible 10 get her off she was burnt where she lay
opposite the town, in view from the windows OF the
Lieutenant Governors house.
think hear your lordship say, This looks very
much like cOnivance on the part Of the Spanish at-
thorties But to continue my narrative which is no
secret here At FL Vale the slaves sold in lots

The Governor Of Pnar del Rio, Colonel Pantacon
Lopez Ayllon, having satisfactorily arranged some
money matters, amounting to upwards Of Sc 900,
with the agents of Messrs Dias and Cavo, the Sen
ores velez and Henera, orders were issued by that
functionary not TO modest the negroes, they be-

encountered the public roads In their transit from

Pho Dias still had q considerable number Of the
Bozals at his estate-El vale-when new difficulty
presented itself. They had hoped to have effected
this embarkation without having to share the pro-
ceeds with those at headquarters and had therefore
neglected tn report the crcumstan to the Captain
General. The fools they ought to have known bet

Nothing could exceed the barefaced audacity Of
all the circumstances connected with the arrival and
Decentralization OF this cargo Stone Key is immc-
dstely opposite to the town Of Cardenas, and think
can be seen from the windows Of the Governors resi-
dence. The expedition was under the command OF
Antonio Capo. 1t Is perfectly true that when he
sailed from Africa there were upwards of 800 ne
groes on board; but the slaves having more than
once tried to take the ship, about 200 of them
mss.acred in the attempts by the crew. These
ll0O slaves were conveyed In launches--there not
