tits not without reason that the Americans complain
ofnRland dealing so tenderly with Spain IN reference
to the slave-trade but, after ALL from

trade sail for the Coast. Vessels captured by the
American squadron, sent home, condemned ana sold,
are bought up aud sent out again to their old business
II would be much better to burn or sink them. The
Storm King Triton, Falmouth, Virginiani Ardennes
and other wel-known vessels now on the coast have
been even sold slavers and bought mp again. and Ia

Much of the impunty with which there audacons ira
ders in flesh and blood carry the business arises
from the persistency with which the United States
Government has resisted the right Of search. On
the approach of British man-of-war the shaver

tain from what read here Of slavers arriving at Ha
and other ports and fitting out for the trade that
the result of expenditure is only TO en-
nance the profits Of the dealer and of the savages on
the African coasts Without cooperation our labor is
vain. Spain has exhibited disregard of her pghted
faith which has been tolerated by England for reasons
impossible to divine. 1t Is calculated that cargo OF
500 negroes cold in Cuba at $500 hesd will leave
profit of $l77 900 gained in four months, their original
cost being $50 hesd, and the expenses Of landing
being $4,000 ship, crew, and all and allowing Tor
loss of 100 on the voyage 1t is said that 10000 ne
groes were landed IN Cuba in the year 1860, and that
about COO died at sea.

the Federalsts at Cape Grardeau in Missouri, below

There are two Queens messengers, Capt Cecil
