FREE CUBA.

From the ~ y. World.
Our information by telegraph from Madrid
and from Washington permits no further
doubt that the administration has caused to
be laid before the Spanish government pro
position for the political independence of
Cuba, similar in its outlines to that originally
developed in the P01Jd and that the result
has been what, our readers will bear us wit
ness, we predicted it would be if the leprous
Sickles were permitted to be in any sense an
intermediary.
The proposition was made the subject of a
Cabinet council at Washington and approved.
1t was also then determined that it would be
prudent, in the existing emergency, not to
trust everything, in so important negotia-
ton, to Sicllles. Mr.. Paul S. Forbes of this
city, was therefore sent to Madrid by the ad-
ministration as a confidential Government
agent in association with the newly-ap-
pointed Minister "a place for which his
former intimacy with Prim especially qualified
him.
Full private directions were given to Mr.
Forbes by the State Department, and formal
instructions to Sicllles. Both were aimed at
the single point of endeavoring to persuade
Spain to concede political sovereignty to the
Cubans, on condition of the latter pledging
themselves, in proper form, to pay to Spain
a certain sum Of money, which payment was
to be in some manner guaranteed by the
United States.
Before the administration decided to issue
such instructions, conference was had with
the Cespedes embassy in this country, headed
by NJ. Morales Lemus, and the plan was SO
heartily approved by him that, in behalf of
the Cuban insurgents, he entered into a
written agreement-a sort of protocol-with
the Government that Cuba would, on its part,
carry out the terms to be submitted by the
United States Gas we have heretofore de-
scribed) to the government at Madrid.
The proposal as made by Sickles to Mar
shal Serrano, while not peremptorily declined,
was not received in manner to indicate that
it will at present be accepted. Mr.. Forbes,
| however, is of the opinion that he will yet
succeed in carrying out the wishes of the
Grant and Cespedes administrations in the
matter, provided that for the future Sickles
keeps his detiling fingers out of the nego-
| tiation.
For ourselves we have little faith We fear
it is to be the old story of a benetcent politi-
cal arrangement frustrated by the mental in
capacity and moral badness of those whose
function it is to make it reality. General
Grant has been incapable to see the insult to
Spain and the wrong to the United States of
commissioning such a wretch as Sickles to
exercise the authority OF to speak the voice of
one government i'll the dominions of the
other. And who dare say that the Senate will
not be as kind as he?
We can only hope that President Grant will
not also go to Mercer street for ambassa
dresses to welcome the Empress Eugene.

This however, would not satisfy Andy. He
is nothing without something which he can
call ''my policy and by sheer force of will
and fertility of invention, he would commit
the Democracy to series Of impractcable
issues and disastrous measures, from which
they could not escape without declining or
even resisting his leadership, whereupon he
would do his best to circumvent and over
whelm them If the Democracy of Tennes-
see can only he induced to send him back to
Washington, he may in the future, as he has
done in the past, enable the Republicans to
win battles which they would otherwise be
pretty sure to lose. They owe negro suffrage
to him; and their success in the next Presl-
dental contest may possibly depend upon his

ANDY JOHNSON IN THE SENATE AGAIN.
From the n. y. Sun.

From the n. y. Sun
Tennessee is agitated over the choice of
Senator to fill the seat which Mr.. Fowler va
Gates in March, 1871. Outside of the State
it seems to be taken almost for granted that
Andrew johnson will be the successful man.
The relative strength of the various elements
that make up the majority of the Legislature
Is not yet apparent, but we doubt whether
the eX-President will be able to clutch the
prize so easily as his admirers imagine
Any faction that thinks of choosing John
son will know in advance precisely what they
are going to have; and this will make shrewd
politicians wary of bestowing upon him for
six years the influential position of United
States Senator. Unless a change has come
over him hardly short of a miracle, he will
return to the Senate not to be follower, but
a leader The history of American politics
does not furnish character whose escutcheon
might more appropriately bear the motto:-
''Rule or ruin The last four years conclu-
sively show that if the party which he
attempts to lead should venture to resist his
domination, he will do his best to destroy it.
And this eventful period has also demon
strated that he is one of that class of leaders
whose friendship is more dangerous than his
enmity, and who is more likely to harm his
followers than his antagonists.
Should Mr.. johnson, then. be chosen to
the Senate, whom will he attempt to lead {?
Certainly not the Republicans, for he will
enter Congress as their implacable foe. The
| red banners of the 6dHd6IUcrOS, shaken def
antly in the face of the bull in the amphithe-
atre of Madrid, do not more infuriate the ami
NAL and rouse him to fight even unto death
| than the countenances of Fessenden, Conk-
ling, Howard, Nye, and their Republican
colleagues in the Senate Chamber would in
flame the anger and invoke the "damnable
iterations' of Andy Johnson. To the Demo-
Gratis, therefore, he must look for his fol-
lowing.
Doubtless it would be a spectacle truly
gratifying to the Democracy, both within and
without the Capitol, to witness Johnson's on
slaughts upon the Republicans; and if they
could only contriye to have him open his
oratOrical batteries upon the cohorts of Grants
administration. without being drawn into the
melee themselves, their Joy would be un-
alloyed. But Johnson is not the man to 90
to war at his own charges, nor to get up a
fight merely for the benefit or amusement of
others and he will let the Democracy know
at the very outset that he either rules or ruins.
leaving them to find out in the end, perhaps,
that he sometimes does both.
Self-reliant, self-willed, and combative;
courageous up to the point which lies a little
this side of actual peril; not destitute of valu-
able resources in debate; with a rough robust
energy which makes him not a desirable
antagonist to grapple with; and smarting
under the terrible excavations of the men
whom he woulG confront in the north wing OF
the Capitol, johnson would infuse into the
proceedings of the Senate good deal of acri,
mony and turbulence, to the amusement OF

ON PARTON.

From the \. Y. World
Senator Wilson, Of Massachusetts, eagerly
rushes forward to indorse Mr.. Parton vindi-
cation of Congress from the charge of corrup-
ton. The Senator declares that in his many
years service at Washington he has never
known member of Congress to be bribed or
corrupted by money. Without dwelling ON
the obvious circumstance that exactly in pro-
portion to Senator's own inaccessibility to
such corruptions must be the care which his
less scrupulous colleagues would take to
keep him in ignorance of their misconduct
it occurs to us that Senator Wilson will
do well to explain one little incident
which has notoriously occurred during his
term of service in Washington A GER
| tain Mr.. Ashley, a member of Congress from
Ohio, a leading man in Senator Wilson's own
party, and a close ally of his in the great and
holy work of impeaching the late President
Johnson, was not only accused, but con-
victed, and that by his own letters of cor
ruptly offering to procure an Office in Colo
RADIO for friend on condition of being
| thereby pecuniarily benefited himself This
same Mr. Ashley, after this exposure of his
| intamy, was nominated by President Grant
to the post of Governor of Montana. His
nomination was passed upon and confirmed
| by the Senate in which Mr.. Wilson sat.
and Mr. Wilson voted for the confirmation
thereof. These being simple historical facts.
We submit that from them it seems but
fair 20 infer: either that Senator Wilson's de-
fnition of corrupt conduct in legislator does
not include the making of bargains with can
didates for Office whereby preliminary inau-
ence is exchanged for subsequent prohts-in
which case Senator Wilson's endorsement be.
comes void for his non-agreement with the
average moral sense of mankind-or else that
Senator Wilson can act with public men fol

and confidential intercourse. and give then
his vote for positions Of public trust without
even knowing anything whatever of then
dongs and their character-in which case hi,
Endorsement becomes void for Incompetence,

THE STATE OF AFFAIRS IN EUROPE.

The situation in Europe is very interesting

GoVernment has published its annual Red

TO make statements which show that there is

GEN. FREMONT AND HIS RAILWAY.

From the n Y. Tribune.
The fact that General John G. Fremont,
now in Paris on business connected with the
projected 'Memphis, El Paso, and Pacific
railroad" " whereof he is president, has there
encountered obstacles and embarrassments
growing out Of Misrepresentation set afoat
with regard to our Governments connection
with that project, has been set forth in some
journals in such manner as to prejudice
uniustly both General Fremont and his rail
road. We need not assure our readers that
General Fremont has made no misstatements,
but many will be glad to learn that none have
been made on his authority or by the COM
pany whereof he is president. Whatever
misapprehensions may at any time have
existed must have grown out of the state
