An smusiD g incident we have heard related
illustrates the fact that caste prejudice has
more TO do with the objections to the negro
than any real personal offensiveness of that
people. A party of colored people from
OAnadisn town we're here spending the
Fourth, and in the evening visited the
thester. They were well dressed, and sp-
peared as decorously IS other guests OF the
place, and the usher, supposing them to be
iIpatives of the West ludiesn-sometimes
called s'Oreoles, gave them as good seats
as were available at the time. Soon after,
a person approached the usher and asked
why he placed Hniggers in the dress cir-
cle?p aNiggers,p said the usher, "thesear
not niggers-they are wealthy party OF
Cubsns, stopping st the Osburn House"
sOh, ah that's 50, is it, Well that makes
3 great difFerenceP And the objector re-
turned TO his sest, soon TO get up CONVEX
sslion with the "Cubans," exchanging pro
grsmmes-perhaps csrds--Snd seemed TO
be highly pleased with the distinguished
strangers The colored party were OBJ
served from the stage afo, occupying
eligible sests, and the usher was again re-
prosched for delinquency, But the same
explanation being offered, the fsstidious
gsntlemsn's Prtjudices vanished in triee,
and he was afterwards seen sdmiring the
6ne appearance of the "Habsnese" from
behind aeoign of vantage" in the wings
| Now, it turns out that the door keeper and
sll we're slightly mistaken as 70 the identi'
ty of these persons. They were, IN fact
sicolored people," residents Of Canads
where they are treated, accordingly IS they
behave themselves, well or ii, and are moi
prescribed because they wear "sable Inv

FROM WAsHTSGT0Se-

The Secretary Of the Interior, in a COM
munieatiOn OF instructions 70 the Com
missioner of Indian affairs, states that in
future dealings with hostile indians, the
Interior Department will subordinate its
action TO the policy and operations of the
War Department., and the Commissioner
is requested to instruct the superintendents
and sgents TO make no deliveries of money
OF goods to any tribes or bands in hostili-
ty to the Government, and to suspend all
Intercourse with them excepting as far as
may be sanctioned BY the officers Of the
War Department.
The Hsrald's correspondent details his
trip from Augusta, Georgia to Montgom-
erv, Alabams, and says the freedmen gen.
orally, having recovered from their jubils-
tion over the aquisition of their liberty,
have settled down to work on the plsnta-
tions, but many of them have yet to be
taught that freedmen and idleness are not
Synonymous. f-.
In Georgis, it is said, the planters have
this year, 10 great extent, instead of cot
ton, planted corn, Of which an immense
crop is anticipated.
Though some of the landed proprietoTs
are determined not 10 employ their former
slaves as hired laborers, the majority are
disposed TO give the free labor system 3
fair trial, and are confident that if the ne
groes will WoIksindustriously both they
and their employers will be benefited by
heehange, and that the lands and all 9TH
er kinds Of property will, in very short
time be far more valuable than ever they
were under the existence of slavery.

were still unsettled. The rebels continued
to hold Cape Haytien and the government
forces were making slow work in reducing
that town. The place had been declared
in state of siege, and sll the foreign con-
suls notified OF that fact, but it was consid-
cred a difficult work on the part of the
government to make it effective, owing to
the want of suitable vessels. The rebels
were confined to Cape Haytien, the rest of
the Island being in s tranquil state.

WASHINGTON, July IA.
Mr. Tussars to to Mr.. Seward
The undersigned minister pleniposan-
tiary Of Her Catholic Majesty, has the
honor to bring to the knowledge of the
Hon. Secretary of State that, agreeable to
official communications which he has re-
eeived from Madrid, an order has been
given to the Captain General of Cuba to
deliver the war vessel Stonewau to the
person whom the United States Govern
ment may commission for that purpose.
In thus acting the Government of Her
Majesty judges that the reasons adduced
in the note of the Both of May last, are not
sufficient to found the right of re.vindica-
tiOn which the United States believes it
has over the aforementioned vessel; but ami
mated by the same loyal sentiment which It
has shown during fouryears of wAr, happily
terminated in this country. It omits en-
.ering into discussion without object, and
he Stonewall is placsd at the disposal Of
'he United States government. With ref
'rence to security for the expenses to the
of the StoneWal of SIG, 900,
which sum having been considered IS the
ale, and the especial cause of the surren-
ler of the vessel, it is to be believed that
he government of the United States
Will not refuse to reimburse it. It being
nevertheless, that this is not
