received by private gentleman enjoying an
unexceptlonable POSITION in Cuban society
ynat great change has been wrought in the
bearing OF the Spanish government toward
our Minister at Madrid ever since the cession
by the Russian government of Russian Amer
lca and the sale by Denmark of the Danish
Antilles. And further that in obedience fo
instructions received from Secretary Seward.
the American Minister at Madrid. had sinh
mittedl to the Spanish government a new
proposition for the purchase of the Island bv
the United States j. ~ T. ~
@Ths proposition, far from being reiecfed
TINS time, had not encountered any very MATE
rial objections whatever. On the contrary
the idea of Mr.. Seward whatever it NAV have
been, had met with favorable reception. It
was presumed that this wonderful change in
the disposition of the Spanish Government
with respect to this delicate affair originated
from many causes. Experience Of the past
difficulties of the present and apprehensions
about the future were only said to be part of
the plea. Besides, the proposition now made
Dy the United States was said to be feasible
one, and the Spanish Ministers could now
from precedents OF the same nature, listen to
it with better grace than was ever the case
before" =
The correspondence winds up by stating
that it had not only been listened to, but that
1t was considered made bargain.
