our Charge d'Afaires at Madrid, to the charges
brought sgainft him by the Hon. Pierre Soule 10
the communication which he published in the Wash
lston papers on the Gath Of March last. 1t is 3
lengthy and interesting document, and covers the
whole ground of the allegations made against the
writer's conduct, not only during the Tins when he
was Mr.. sonle's subordinate in the Spanish Lega-
ti0n, bus subsequently, since ne has been entrusted
with the whole responsibility Of It's duties. Mr..
Perry retorts the charge of his bsing"a spy and
traitcr" by showing that Mr. Soule had himself all
Along acted double part by transmitting erroneous
information TO government respecting the real feel
ipgs sr d yiew of the Spanish Cabinet and people
in reference to the sale of Cuba and also by pur
p0sely msmauaging the affair Of the Black Warrior

this proceeding, and in obtaining from the
Spanish government satisfactory proposition for
the settlement Of the case, and ultimately
its complete sdjustme after Mr.. Sou6's final de-
psrture in February last AS still further proofs of
the evil iufipencs which Ne. Soue's personal hosti.

negotiations between the countries, Mr.. Perry
states that when relieved from them he procured

settlement and immediate payment of all claims
Involving private interests which had besn pre-
scented by either government to the other since
1884. he obtained an overture for the negotiation
OF great treaty, correcting immense benefits to

peie protection Of the political, religious and So
sial rights Of citizens, in future in every portion

Mr.. Porry makes various other charges against
MT soule, of attempts to tsmper with and divert
him from the honest discharge of his duties, and
