OUR DIFFERENCES WITH SPAIN
ADJUSTED.
From The EreHing Post

We have received authentic and entirely reliable
intelligence Of the arrival of dispatches from the
Spanish Govern ment by the last steamer, in which
every demand made by Jhe President upon the Spea-
ish Government, growing out OF the Black Warrior
diihcuiy, hss been acceded to. What these demands
were forth at length i'll the letter of tue Secre
tary of State 10 Mr.. SOue da ed June 20 lSJ4 with
the general tenor Of which our readers are familiar
In that paper Mr. Mafcy claimed
EfrSt Jbat if tue manifest OF The Black warrior
lot ia strict conformity to ls~ Jana II was upon
this ground the seizure OF the Black Warrior was
made the fault in the Custom liouse officers AT
Cube, who not only permitted, but directed the form
Of making II.
Spain.
SecondIy Mr. Marcy insisted that the consgnee of
~ Black Warrior entitled 20 ~elve hours, after
the arrival Of the vessel to amend the manifest that
he offered to DO it in this case, and tbat permission
This fact also, We assured, is conceded BY the
Spanish Government.
Thirdly. Compensation was ssked for the lose con-
sequent the Illegal seizure This the Spanish GOV
ernment have agreed 70 pay.
Fourtkly. The Spanish Government have also agreed
to remOre all persons m office whs were implicated
in the seizure and have ordered the revenue officers
who participated improperly therein, and who a. o
net now in office TO be tried for their misconduct.
Thus, ii appears that without any Minister az all
at Madlid, ard with simple Secretary OF Legation
TO communicate and transmit the dsp itches Of the
respective Governments 10 each other, this who'e
war. breeding fpec;re has been LAID, and Spain has
promptly and cheeIfully offered every ndemnic alton
that askei OF i'll tie letter of the Secretary of
State 10 MIR. Soule, dated the 22d June, 1854.
In announcing this gratifying intelligence, in the
CORE ctness OF which We 90 not hesitate to bespeak
absolute confidence, We cannot pass in silence the
obvious question which every ore viii ask VIII this
affair, which hss been the pretex for all tbs Cuban
agitation tor the last year two, has lot been set
tied before; why, in fsct, it was not settled immed-
ately upon the receipt of AIR. Msrcvs letter of the
22d June, stating the wrongs our Government had
sustained and the reortss she demanded, in both Of
which Spain has finally and cheeruliy concurred

The Committee on Railroads of the Board of Coun-
cilmen, consisting Of Messrs. Reed, Wild, Wandell,
Scbepck, and Wainwright, held adjourned meeting
in the Council Chamber City Hal, to take into con-
sderaiion the various resolutions aud petitions rea
tive 10 the reduction of the rates Of fare on the City
Railroads.
Mr.. Goodwin addressed the Committee at soma
length and gave statistics relative to the cost
Of working railroads lie alluded, in opening his re-
marks, to bill which Mr.. Waterbury had introduced
in the Assembly, and also 10 the application of the
Third Avenue Railroad Company 20 the Board OF Su-
pervsors for remission Of tax on nearly 81 200 600,
said TO be expended for capital. The Supervisors
he'd appealed 10 the Legislature TO repeal the law.
The road could be built and furnished al this time
for less than s295 000 including 40 cars, gao horses
and harness The company cay that il costs 70 work
the road nearly s345 900. II can be worked for
4lC0, 600. He estimated their receipts in January
and February at the sum Of S232 600 per annum,
while they sckuowledge the receipts of 80 and "a
to have been S3i6 627. Mr. G.. said the onnibusses
IN London were taxed s45 per month, or $40 per
annum; and they carried passengers for two, four
and SIX cents, distances varying from two TO niue
miles. They were limited ID twelve inside and eight
or ten outside, and under ten dollars fine If they trsv
eled at greater speed than four six and seven miles

gross violation OF the original charter by the Com-
paDy such extent thai time since he mo- cd
. resolution TO the effect that the fare in the small
cars be reduced 10 two cents. He hoped that SOME
method could be devised 10 compel them to accom- no.
date the public. Their non attendance here today
showed that they relied wholly upon their charter
and paid no attention 10 the seton Of the Common
Council. He concluded by ssyiog he should move
two revolutions at the meeting Of the Boardone TO
the effect that the COMMITTEES report in favor OF re-
duction of fare on the Fourh-av. line between City
Hall and Twenty third ST. aud the other that the
Company be compelled to discontinue tue the use OF
