those of the Cuban Junta, to raise q force
within the limits of the United States, where
with to Wrest Cuba:from Spain. Legally, there
is not the least difference between the two
cases; and 1t was as clearly the duty of this
Government to prevent the violation Of our
law in the one case, as in the other. In the
United States the law knows no distinction Of
persons, while they may not have been &C
knowledged by the Government in diplo-
matte capacity, or as members of received
foreign diplomatist's family. The foreign func-
tionaries arrested by orders from Washington
not coming under the excepted head, were,
therefore, very properly arrested. Had their
persons been thus shielded from arrest by the
law of nations, they would, doubtless, have
been ordered out of the United States long
since. We have only, in conclusion, to express
the wish that all those who have been led to
believe that the action of the Government
here in dealing with the functionaries of the
British Government essaying to raise recruits
for the Crimea in the United States, as they
dealt with those who endeavored to invade
Cuba from our shores, was arbitrary and un-
called for, may see the brief paragraph from
the Journal of Commerce at the head Of this

The next House.-There are twenty five
earnest and active supporters of the present
administration elected to the next House of
Of Representatives from non.slave- holding
States, and it is reduced to certainty, in the
minds of the best political calculators here,
that, allowing for all possible contingencies,
at least seventy-fve staunch administration
men will hold seats in the House from slave
holding States. Or in other words, that the ad-
ministration will commence the session with a
