MCLELLAN's ARMY WELL sUfPLIED.
The official certificates of the Quartermaster Gen
eral and tie Commissary General that they have
promptly supplied every requisiiion from the Army
Of the Upper Potomac are on file. Gen. Mcclellan
has moreover teegraphed to Gen. Meigs that every

IL is uron the strength Of evidence such as this
that we asserted, and sll asser that those journals

neglecting to forward necessary supplies to Gen.
MeClellans army, and attribute the iuac.io Of that

SPAIN AND TIE UNITED STATES.
Notwithstanding the complications actually caused
by the proximity Of Cuba TO the United States, the
Spanish Government, Count Ssvrno, Captain
General Of Cuba, and Mr.. Tsssora, the Spanish

tested ffenilness in their relations with the United
States. II is not believed that our Government will
permit the conduct Of Capt. Hunter, in attacking n
vessel in Spanish waters, 20 interrupt these ami
cable relations with one Of tho great Powers Of
Europe as Spain, in preference to Austria or Prus.
sis IL justly entitled to be conadered.
