SPAIN.
The .Thunderer'' ON tho Trouble with AmerIcI

From the London Times, Sept. 25
lie must be q clever man who can tell what are,
the present moment, the intentions of the United
States Government with respect to Cuba. There is
a party in the Union, as we all know, which favOrs
nOn-ntervention in the affairs OF that island; there
is another which approves the course taken by Gene
raj SCkles with respect to the Cuban question and
there, finally, is a government, or, at least, man
at its head, named General Grant, who Yibrates be-
tween these two conflicting tendencies as a pendu-
lum, and who may either resolve upon recalling
his diplomatic agent or instruct him to demand
an answer to the note about Cuba. There can
not, in the meantime be two opinions as to the
blundering of that gallant General whom the
Cabinet at Washington have chosen to do duty for
them as a diplomatist in Madrid. He has evidently
at the outset assumed tone which the Spaniards
could not brook and he has been "frightened'-nO
other word could thoroughly convey our meaning
at the result OF MS demands he has been too sure
that the Spanish Cabinet declines TO consider any
American proposition, and also that they could, in
any eVent rely on the support OF Austria and
France There is no doubt that the prospect of the
sale or loss Of Cuba had given rise to very general
ana violent commotion in Madrid and that Serrauo's
Government must, in any transaction leading to that
result, be extremely careful not to wound the ma
tional susceptblities. There is no question as to
the readiness OF the Spanish people to fight against
all odds or to undergo all hardships whenever they
conceive that their honor is at stake.
AS forthe solution of the Cuban question,
Justice will help Spain much better than force
point Of honorthe Spanlrds should consider whether
| they really have valid cause in the Antilles. How
| ever anxious Europe might be, to recognize the
validity of their rights, she would still have to n-
| qure into the use that Is made OF those rights
| Europe has shrunk in America from what she
| sible that Austria and France might feel tempted
to recover in Cuba that prestige which they lost in
Mexico. But they must have 1t in their power to
| refute American assertions that the war in Cuba
| is carried on sin manner contrary to all the
principles Of humanity" Iney must incur no rsk
! of completely with deeds Of bloodshed and violence
which modern civilization disavows; they must not
seem bent on bearing out Spain in pretensions
which should clash with the equal rights ana with
| the reasonable demands Of her colonies. A1aieus
slSque ad arann ought to be rule in public well
in private transactions Principles of righteousness
ought to prevail considerations of pOtical
interest or eXpediency. 1he Spaniards may certainly
have right to treat their colonsts as they please
| but the worlds sympathies will be with them in prO,
portion their treatment VI those colonies is proved
| to be Just and merciful.

were discovered she was becalmed and drifting

twelve years, had hardly time to get into two
small boats which they succeeded in lowering
saving of their effects but the clothes they had
on, and not mouthful of provisions. For seven
teen days they subssted on the shehsh which they
slept on shore around large fires which they lighted.
The Indians treated them WELL not Offering them
the slightest violence. BY day they pursued their
course southwark towards the Straits of lie Marie,
and on the seventeenth day after their shipwreck
fell in with the Norwegian barque General Birch,
whose captain, A. Amersden, treated them with ali
possible kindness and attention. The General
Birch landed the sufferers at Talcahuano on the
18th of September. Ten of them left in hospital
at that port and would lose their toes, which were
frostbitten.
The Dreadnought was built at Newburyport in
1853, under the personal supervision OF Captain
Samuel Samues, who was her first commander aud
who, it will be remembered, subsequently COM
manded the yacht Henrietta in the famous ocean
race in 1861 She was then attached to David
Ogdens line OF New York and Liverpool packets,
and became famous for the rapidtty OF her trips

mutinied, and but for the presence OF mind of Cap
tain Samues most disastrous consequences might
have followed. The affair, however, was quelled
without resorting to force The DreadnouPht was
one of the best clipper ships ever built in the United
