The ArguslIes Case In Cuba,
From the N. Y, Commercial Advertiser.l


Certain American journals, like the New
York Times, have made haste 10 applaud the
disgracelul surrender Of Col Arguelles by Mr.
s ward, on the ground that, by doing this
ANAL evil the Secretary of State would ac-
complish the great good Of liberating mum
Der Of helpless negroes from bondage. We
commend to those journals nn item OF news
which has jus reached us from Cuba. Il is to
this effect
"The thousand negroes liberated by Ar
ruelles, have been delivered over as slaves to
Zelueta, on the ground that their seizure was
illegal"
Now, it will be remembered that Col Ar
guelles, in letters published here, distinctly
charged the Captain Gen usFal, Dulee, with nd.
vancing this notorious slave dealer, Zuiuetn,

purpose of more comfortably sharing with him

Mr.. Seward could know anything Of the
difficulties between Arguelles aud Dulce
(tbere being no sort OF evidence laid be
fore him of any judicial proceedings what
ever taken against ihe former,) the chance,
we're at least evenly balanced that it was Ar
gueles who was denouncing, and Dulce who
was attempting to protect the systematic VIC
lation on Cuban soil Of the Anglo Spanish
conventions for the suppression of the slave
trade But Mr. Seward, apparently, could no
resist the temptation to ring his little bell,
and prove bimself to be, by the scandalou
liberation OF the American people, 'chart
cred libertine' Of irresponsible power. Ii
