The Black Warrior Affair.

The seizure of this Steamer by the suthori-
ties of Havana, and confscation of her cargo,
very naturally arouse the indignation Of THE
American Heart, and yet we are inclined to be-
lieve that our Spanish brethren were abstract
ly in the right. under port regulations which
are in full force at this moment, however oh

ment.
In accordance with custom however. Capt
Bul'ocks manifest" showed the ship to be in
"ballast." although conveying cargo from
New Orleans to New York, and as none Of the
same was shipped or unshipped At Havana, it
has been unusual for years to institute inqui.
ries into the truth and validity Of similar man
ifests. But this is not the matter at issue
The course pursued BY the Cubans. although
justifable. it may be, BY rigid construction
Of law. undoubtedly arose from spirit of ia
science and illfeellng. which catches at the
least straws for the purposes of manifestation
and after Capt. Bullock had signifed his vii

any circumstances, as totally at variance vi
the spirit Of international law and the con-

At latest accounts Capt. Bullock had agreed
to pay the fine imposed Of 5000. and was "a
