We give to-day an III erestin despatch from
one Of our Washington correspondents, tue par

Mr. Daniel E. ickles, Secretary OF Legation &C
London. The fact that the issue OF this mis-
sion marks OUT an entirely new line of policy
ON he part OF our government, relative 20 Gu

mats abroad to DC especially directed towards

United States AT London and Madrid have not

important fact, as both OF these governments

every convenient occasion, during the past
half century 1t is well for the liberals that
affairs at the other extremity of the Mediter-
raDean demand the undivided attention of the
Anglo French alliance. Free non apprehen,
sion in THE quarter, the liberals are animated
with the most sanguine hopes, and they uaru-
rally look to the United States for sympathy
and such aid as may be extended 10 them 18th.
ont infringement Of the constitution and law
Upon this appeal Of the Spanish liberals Me
NEW line ofpol.cy is to be adopted. ~.
We do not believe that any government that
Spain may hereafter be blessed or cursed with.
a. the case may be, will listen to any PROPOSE,
ton to sell Cuba to any body. The same
pride which induces Spanish grandee to
risk starvation rather than accept a
naravedi from stranger, revolts at the idea
Of the sale Of the fairest dependency of the
crown to government comparatively of yes
terday. The hundred mllioa oGer has once
been refused, aud would be again refused by
even u liberal ministry. In this state OF aff.irs,
ihs United States offers its sympathy, aid AID
comfort to the liberals, providing that they will

On without any of the contemplate Insults and
aDpoyat ces which our merchants have suliere
al Havana aid other ports during the las.
twenty years.
The liberals want money and TO Cuba, or
through Cuba, they must look for the mean
whereby their empty pockets may be repIeui=h
ed. Cuba will demand value receivsl, in the
shape Of the removal of odious imposts, grind
ing moi opoiics ana cru municipal, regulaa
tons, which have been from time to time forced
upon tie unhappy island by the home govern
mcni. The money for which these reforms
would be . Considerable might be Furnished,
by the United States, which would give tn
republic an immediate clam upon Cuban gra
titnde. With liberal government the island
would increase in value ten fold, because then
this modern Eden would be tsrned to the BIS,
account by Yankee enterprise and a,kee ia.
dustry Neither France, England or any oh
er European power could obi. ct to this course.
as it would be equally beceHcial to their com
merce. In the course OF time, Cuba might be-
come an independent State, AMI afterwards, IN
der proper re trictions, admitted ~ one of these
United States.
The Intelligent reader will see that this
course OF proceedings would have tendency
to indie fn;t ~ postpone the period so anxionsly
locked for by the ultra flibusters when CUBA
shall be liberated, ana all the plantations
negroes included--be divided among the lia
rstors. 1t will. however. prove highly satisfac

enough to carry IT ouD to many Southern poll
licans, who think that the in sesests Of ia .ts-c
lion would be je, pardized IN the event OF uure
strcted trade between Cuba aud the great
markets OF the North.
But whether or not the plan is secuted by til.
hlibusters, approved by the Sout,, Or rejected
question for consideration Il present. The
facts are as above stated. Mir. Sickies has had
an important mission, and the work Ia only
half performed. The fate Of th delicate ueyc
riaiion now in progress must depend on the tac,
Of the negotiatms. Messrs. Buchanan, Mason
and SouIe have fair field, and we presume
that they will go TO work with will.
