The vessels on the West Inda station instructed TO

trade provided any lingering Of that nefarou traffic
still existed But captures have been made and 70 b.
hoPSd ms infamous trade - etf'h1psted
So IL would appear, it is TO be the happiness OF the
present generation to witness the last Of one of the
greatest curses with which humanity has ever been
afiicted-the extinction of the sum of all villain
les" The history Of the African SIsVe.Trade. like
the prophets roll is full Of lamen atoms, and mourn
ing. and woe" IL is history whose every page has
been saturated with tears and blood. One of the
most hopeful and cheering signs Of the times Is the
fact that the last page OF that dreadful history has been
written and that Christian civilization 10 be redeemed
from the abomnation and disgrace Of manufacturing,
aud of the cruetes and horrors of the mddle-pas-
sage" The future historians OF this country will record
with pride the fact that, simultaneously with our
struggles to save liberty in the Republic the nation
became more earnest than in protest against this
abomination and active in efforts to suppress the
wicked trade.
Spain is now the only Power from which any at
tempt to revive the traffic in human flesh aud blood
nav be apprehended But she, too will DO compelled
to yield in this matter to that enlightened public opin'
ion which has forced other nations to abandon the ne
farous business She is under treaty obligations with
Great Britain to suppress the traffic sum amount
ing to nearly halfa million of pounds sterling having
been paid to her for that purpose. The terms
of the treaty in question have been shame
lessly violated by Spain, who for years past
has tacitly given every encouragement TO
the man.stesers Of Cuba in the prosecution OF
their inhuman enterprise. Previously to our late civil
war the slayetrade TO Cuba was carried on In great
measure under cover of the United States flag; but
the treaty made with the British Government by
President Lincoln's Administration, for the more
efecual suppression Of the traffic by means oil con-
certed action between the United States and England
renders il impossible for the Spansrds any longer to
find IMMUNITY under the shelter of our fagi and the
vigilance Of cruisers as the secretarys report shows,
has done the rest the trade being already virtually ex-
tinct And Spain we repeat cannot revive ti Tor nde'
pendently of that e1raneous pressure, which, on the
question of Negro Slavery must eventually drive her
into the right path, wholesome sentiment Is spring
ing up in her own bosom. Madrid has its Abolition
party, active earnest, and enthusiastic Cuba, too,
has it's Abotioniss and there are facts showing that
the Spanish Government is feeling sensbly the moral
pressure arising out Of the events Of the last i've years
in this part of the world. The abolition OF Slavery in
Cuba is only question of time and we think we see
already "ths beginning of the end.
