ks0M WASHINGTON.
Our despatch from Tie national capital furui shea
some interesting and reliable intelligence as to the
settlement Of the Black Warrior affair, the progress
of opinion in Spain relative to the sale of Cuba to
tne United States, and the peace commission"
project Of the Cabinet, to which have alluded at
length in al editorial Article.
AFFAIRS IN MExIoo.
We publish elsewhere came trauslations fren the
Bstetin 0fcia del Ejerci,o Resta,udtor de la 4 ibes
tad, the organ OF Alvarez, published in Acapulco.
One fact that gives an air Of truth to these state
nents is that the particulars OF the skrnshes where
the revolutionary party were victorious are minute
iy given. Santa Anna, the other hand, has
deicned 10 do more than declare that he was the
conqueror, and this with very suspicious 6olrisl
OF trunpets. There can be b,n little doubt, how
.ve that the retreat of the Dictator to his capital
was ignoninious and cowardly, and that before he
reached his destpaiion he suffered nany severe de-
feats and losses both in men aud munitions Of war.
Had Alvarez been provided with money and pr
visions and able to follow hi enemy, the career Of
his Serene Bighness would by this time have been
closed forever.

QUARANTINE AT cHARLEsrus.
We perceive that the press and City Couacil Of,
Charleston are engaged in discussing the prepriety
ari,llt
that port. The merc.Gtie interest opposes the
adoption OF such a measure, apl only recently bill
before the Coupoii, providing restrictive ldw was
defeated but afterwards il was taken ny and recon-.
nited, and H. therefore, still open question. II
is well known that the apnu6 calapities 10 which
Southern cities have Cor years been subject are
traeeabe in almost every instance u the absence of
efficient quarantine regulations, aud it becomes,
therefore, a question of national importance that
efficient laws should be enacted AMI enforced to
guard against such infections in future. As for the
interests OF trade the security OF the people from
infectious diseases shoald be paramount to every
consideration Of that nature.
