DIFFICULTY WITH SPAIN.

IF the recent reports Of the New Orleans
papers, are to be relied on, difficulty with
Spain may Justly be anticipated by our gov
ernment. 1t is stated, that Mr. Soule in his
efforts to indemnify the United States for the
Black Warrior outrage had demanded the
recall of the Captain General of Cuba, and to
have his successor invested with full power to
settle all difficulties between the island ard
other countries, without any consultation OF
the Court at Madrid, and that a large indem-
nifty has been demanded to satisfy the owners
of the ship, for damages sustained.
a correspondent Of the Picayune states
that great excitement exists in Havana, and
that foreign merchants are sending their fam
lilies away to England, France and elsewhere.
Four black regiments have been formed, and
the Captain-General is authorized to iberate
by decree all the slaves on the island, on the
intimation of declaration of war against
Spain by the United Stated States. The
Picayu11e of the 10th states that the Admin
istration will not sustain Mr.. Soule in his de-
mands on Spain in reference to the Cuban
aggressions, on the ground that he has ex-
ceeded his instructions.

Old Bullion VS.. tiae Post Once.

It may be remembered that Mr.. Benton
failed in having has $fiend appointed Post
master at St. Louis. President Pierce
saw fit not to crafty Mr. Benton in the mat
ter, and appointed another, who is SO obnox-
ious to cold bullion" that he will not send
or receive any more packages or letters
through the Post Office at st. Louis. This
is spunky indeed, but we are not surprised at
his course, for it is "just like him." There is
one thing, however, that p. M. Campbell
may console himself about-that the mails
will be carried, notwithstanding the franks of
Thomas Hart Benton do not go in them.
This freak of old Bulion's is like some spite
ful subscriber to a paper, who "stops" his
paper because the Editor chose to say some
thing which did not please him. The paper
is continued to be published, greatly to hi
surprise, and the mails will go to return from
St. Louis as of yore-the Benton packages to
the contrary Notwithstanding.
Here is the letter of Benton, written after
his correspondence with p. NJ Campbell:
Notice to usy Friends and Constituents IN
the City of st. Lous.
The subjoined correspondence will explain the
reason of the notice which now give: which is,
that for -some time past have sent nothing to
my friends or constituents in ST. Louis through
the Post Office in that city, and after the day of
the publication of this notice in St. Louis, will
receive nothing which shall be sent to me
through that Office. My correspondence will
go through the express line of Adams 6E Co.,
who generously offer to fetch and carry gratis
for me within the limits of the Postmaster
Generals letter. and their Office will be my
post Office in that city.

The Monroe Doctrine.

In reply to the suggestion of the Balti-
more Patriot, that the Monroe doctrine fur
nishes no solution Of the problem presented
in connexion with the Cuba question, the
Philadelphia Evening Argus makes the fol-
lowing remarks, which are worthy of care
full perusal:
8 In our judgment, the meaning and intent Of
the Monroe restriction, will cover all territory
lying in such position as its occupancy by a
foreign despotic power will interfere with the
peace and tranquility of this country, or the
perpetuity of its free institutions IT foreign
interference with Yucatan or the Mosquito
country will not be allowed, why will not the
same principle apply to Cuba or any other isle
Tie Interference of despots with the latter
would be fraught with far more serious C, nse-
quences Than the former In the case of Yuca
tan and the Mosquito country, they are compar-
atively remote, while Cuba is in the very track
of our commerce, within few hundred miles
of the shores of the Southern States, which are
most of all affected by any rising among her
population, and in the hands of a maritime ma
tion will completely command the entrance to
the Gulf of Mexico, In addition to this, should
Cuba pass into the possession of England, for
example, it will form point from which the
emissaries of despotism could easily assail our
country in the most deadly and effeo tive manner
g With these facts in view, is there any
statesman in the country who would listen for
one moment to proposition that Cuba should
be transferred by Spain to any other nation,
especially Grert Britain? Undoubtedly there
is not. That doctrine has been most umistala-
bly, enunciated by more than one President, and
forms most prominent feature in the admins
tTation of General Pierce. The fact that the
English government has on more than one occa-
cion tampered with Spain for the purpose of
moulding her policy in relation to the island Of
Cuba, is the best proof of the intent Of that
government should they succeed in getting pos
session of that island, either by treaty or force
The avowed object is to colonize 1t with such
class Of subjects as will most materially affect
the interests of this country, both in a CONNER
cial and political sense. They wish it as a ma
val station to harass our commerce in the event
of an open rupture, or as a depot from whence
they can menace the southern States and foment
discord among their local population by means
of their abolition missie naries. .
Was not the Monroe doctrine designed for
such case as this either on the continent or in
the islands contiguous to It? SO long as Spain
was her own master, aud managed her politics
at Madrid, instead Of at London, there was
some reason in the silence of the American gov
eminent, and the position Of the Patriot would
apply; but It IS now notorious England is in

Congressional.

Mr. Pierce lately reported a bill to author
ize the purchase of portraits Of the first five
Presidents of the United States, which was
adopted.
Mr. Barry in the House from this State
made an able speech on the 28th ult., on the
Nebraska and Kansas Bill, objecting only to
the Badger proyiso, which however was not
an objection sufficient to prevent him from
voting for the bill. The New Mexico Road
bill was passed. On motion of Mr.. Bayley
of Virginia, the President was requested to
furnish the House with copies of correspon-
dence with foreign governments in relation
to the rights of neutrals; also, copies Of the
instructions of this government to our repre-
sentatiyes abroad, in relation to Cuba, and the
dispatches of said representatives
On Tuesday the End inst, the Senate was
engaged in the consideration of the Indian
appropriation bill, a bill in relation to the
California Indians, which was slightly amen
ded and agreed to. In the House on the
same day, Mr.. Wheeler made an Intellectual
attempt to introduce a joint resolution author
izing the Secretary Of the Navy to charter a
vessel to go in search Of the steamer q City
Of Glasgow" On the srd, the Speaker laid
before the House, resolutions from the legis-
lature Of Kentucky, asking for notifications
in the bountyIand law, and for grant of
land for educational purposes. Mr.. Valley
presented memorial from the governor and
legislature Of Massachusetts in favor of es-
tablishing floating schools in the harbors of
the United States.

terfering in the affairs Of ths Island of Cuba
with special eye 10 the inj1ry of the United
States. III is no longer the Spanish government
sdOplingan institatiOn, OF modelling one already
in existehce. It is the diplomatsis Of Europe,
headed by England, taking advantage Of that
imbeciIe and tOttering government as a shield
from England, while they can huh their mis-
sves at our free institutions with impunity
If these measures have been taken adfoiuy, they
are not the less 10 be Ieprobated end when a
nation thus ovesieps tie bounds Of national
law, the defensive power must not be held 10
too light a construction Of the means Of defence.
(" The Monroe doctrine was intended 10 pre-
vent the colonization Of empires in the western
world, because such colonial ation was dangerous
to the liberties Of the people Of these States,
and the principle is broad enough to cover al
territory on which such an attempt Is made.
II the English using the isle Of Cuba as Oh
entrepot from which they may meahly and cow
ardly assal the institutions Of this country, the
government should at once interfere and that iu
the teeth of Spanish authority. If a nation
will either weakly or criminaly allow itself TO
be made the tool Of another, as Spain has Of
England it must be satisfied with the conse-
qnences The duty Of the United States IS 10
protect the national honor and interests at an
hazards and If they are attacked from lhe island
OF Cuba, the Monroe doctrine will fully cover
and justify the interference Of the national gov
erDment."

Assault with intent TO KiII.

A difficulty occurred on the night of the
9th inst, between two men connected with
Dan Rice's circus, which resulted in man
ner seriously detrimental to one of the com
battants, The parties had been it appears on
terms Of hostility, and had had a slight COLI
sion in the course of the evening with each
other, in which one was considerably worsted-
Mad with anger, and eager for revenge, the
vanquished party armed himself with knife,
and approaching with that caution and stealth
which is ineited by fear, within striking
distance, he inflicted frighful wound upon
his adversary. The wounded man is impro-
wing. and hopes Of his recovery are entertain
ed, and the misguided and unfortunate perpe-
TRAITOR of the deed is in Jail awaiting trial.
