1t has been reported that the officer who did the
visiting of American vessels at Sagua la Grande, has
been arrested and sent to Jamaica for trial 1t is pro-
babe that this was done the complaint of the Span
ish authorities at Havana. This is said to be the same
officer who landed marines upon the island not far from
Sagua La Grande to hunt up negroes already landed
1t is said that the British Consul has made all sorts of
apologies to the Captain-General who however, could
not accept them but has referred the matter home to
Madrid Some think the arrest and all that, only farce

manders of the Buzzd and Styx meets with strong con-
demnation from the superior officer 1t all report and
there three or four versions every particular There
appears to be foundation for the rmor that man

Death of Senator Henderson, of Texa,

1t becomes our melancholy duty to announce this
morning the decease of another member of the United
States Senate. Hon. j. p. Henderson, of Texas died
at his lodgings in this city yesterday evening The dis
ease was of pulmory character from which he has su
ered for some time.
Senator Henderson was a native of North Carolina
and emigrated to Texas in the year 1885, He filled
many high civil and military positions during its exis-
tence a republic, and since its admission into the
Union State the value of his services has been re-
peatedly recognised. He was chosen the first COVER
nor of the State of Texas and by the last legislature
unanimously elected to the Senate as the of
the lamented Rusk. He was lawyer of distinguished
ability an orator, and statesman and his death will
be felt by the people of Texas as great loss.

SPAIN FRIGHTENED-The Madrid journals have ar
tcles saying that for some time the United States have
been seeking for pretext to aont SPAIN and that the
projected protectorate of Mexico has no other object
They accordingly recommend the government to increase
its naval forces The fact that our Senate on Wenes
day gave quietus to the proposed protectorate will
probably calm the fears of the Madrid Journals

The Mormon War-1ntelligcnce from Gen. IIa,

The Mormon War-Imtelligence from Gen. Harvey.
WAsHINGroN, June 1.-The Secretary of War to-day
received teegraphic dispatch from Gen. Harvey, da
ted Fort Leavenworth in which he announces the arri
val of the express with the report that Gov Cumming
had been driven out of Salt Lake City.
Whatever may be the condition of affairs there the
dispatch does not obtain full credence for the reason
that Gen. Harvey merely repeats the report and does
not communicate as from direct intelligence to himself
1t is believed probable that Gov Cumming has returned
to Fort Scott for it is known to Gen. n. when he left
there contrary to the advice of Col Johnston that he
promised to be back again in two weeks

BGgH The long article on our navy, which we copy
from the Washington Union, will be found interesting
and instructive at the present time 1t is proper that,
before pIunging into difficulties, should know ex
actly how we stand what preparations for offence
and defence really are and what the forces and pre-
paratiOns of those with whom may be brought into
collision. This desirable information the Union Affords
and as its facilities for obtaining the necessary lnorma-
tion are beyond question: have no doubt OF the &C
curacy of its statements at least far own navy
is concerned. We presume it is pretty near the mark
in regard to the naval forces of Great Britain.
Some of our exchanges draw glowing pictures of the
great blessings to be realized from naval war The
versatile and unreliable genius who presidcs the
New York Herald is quite grandiloquent upon this
point Now we would think it bad economy i'll the cal
cuation of COSTS to place national honor and national
independence secondary to any other consideration
Feeling apart experience has shown that the sacrifice OF
national honor is the most expensive that any ma
ton can make 1t actually costs more in the long run
than tie amount of any that might be required for
the defence and vindjcated on outraged honor. The
United States cannot afford to make any such sacrifice
But then to talk of the blessings and the riumphs Of
war! to become Indignantly and crociousy beligerent
to call for for its sake is little short Of
nonsense We must repeat that if Senators and
bers of Congress believe war to be imminent their
language would indicate then it is their bounden duty
in view of the official statement of the Union and we
take it to be at least semiocia to take prompt meas
ures to place the army the navy and the coast denses of
the country upon basis of efficiency such the emer
gency calls for, and this at any expense

It is evident that the system of espionage and inter

much vim, will stir up fuss that they will be glad
