HAVANA, Saturday, Sept. 8. 1855.
Ia my letter Of the 23i ult. infJrned yea
that an officer had been sen. by Tho Captain
General 20 OrtigOssa in seaIch oil lie las. cargo
of Africans which had been landed near tGaE
place, and which circ umstssce was Assumed as
o tact admission that the Africans had been
landed. To my great surprise | have since as
certaibed taat Gen. Concas continues off 5lslly
TO deny that there wss any landing Of Africans
at the time and place specified. This DENIAL
Goes not spesk fayoiaoly FOR the character OF
Gen. Concha, either as lover OF truth or as
nan DESTROYS 10 suppress ,he African slave
trade. Indeed it would rather appear that no
desires to give the infamous tratic' secre. Ell
coursgement. Ihaye frequently heard il stated
that be possesses an etching palm" aud does
not scorn bribe. There has since been landed Il
am not aware of the precise date when) cargo
of Africans in the old Bahama Chanpel'-a local
ity Tito which no cruiser" would dare venture at
this (the hurricane) season.
On Saturday night last a week, another cargo OF
Africans was landed at Santa Cruz, on the south
coast Of this Island and there was also taver seeo
somew here off the coast in the Jurisdiction Of
Trinidad, who obtained supply of provisions, but
who through as s stated the activity Of the Island
authorities, was not enabled to land her living
cargo there. William Sioney Smith, Esq, is the
BItish Vice. Consul at Trinidad and his presence
may lead the authorities there TO make show Of
activity" to prevent the landing of Africans but
that they in reality desire to do so do not be-
leye. Thus you will perceive that although Spain
has promised to suppress the slave trade" yet r
continues to be prosecuted almost as actively as
ever, and it will, you may rely, be ever thus until
the nen who carry il on shall be declared BY Spain
TO be pirates, the common enemies OF all mankind.
The Gaotta OF the 4th inst. contains q " circular
which declares that police officers who appre-
bend runaway euancipadoes are not 10 be entitled
10 receive any payment from the master OF the
emancipadO tor so dong, and then follow the an
nexed regulations respecting runaway emancipa
does, which translate from the Gaeeta 4:
