From the 81. Tzome TTdende, Sept6r. 49,
THE UNITED STATES AND SPAIN ON
THE CUBAN QUESTION.

The Washington correspondent of the Pbila-
delphia Inquirer, under date of "Wednesday,
gives what he claims to be a correct account of
negotiations between our Government and Spain
in regard to Cuba. He states that Paul S.
Forbes was sent to Madrid by the United States
Government in a private capacity on behalf of
the Cubans. He informally communicated to
Prim and Serrano the following propositions
F~irst-Spain to grant independence to Cuba
without condition.
Second-For Spanish property left in Cuba,
Cuba will give indemnity. A mixed commits
sion, comprising an equal number of Spaniards
and Cubans, and an umpire of their selection,
shall determine the amount of the indemnity,
but under no circumstances shall the aggregate
amount exceed 500, 900, 600.
Third-The slaves in Cuba must be enamel
pated.
Fourth-As soon as these propositions are
accepted, hostiGities between Spain and Cuba
shall cease, and the United States will guaran-
, 1869-09-28

tee the fulfllment of the contract by both
parties.
The propositions were favorably considered,
and a few days later General SickIes formally
submitted them to the Spanish Regency. The
answer from the Spanish Government has been
received at Washington, and it is stated that
this anSwe inserts three other clauses instead
of the first three of the above, and accepts the
fo3th with sincere thanks for the kind offer of
the United States Government. The matter
was then laid before the Cubans, and they re-
jected the three propositions made by the Span
iards. The subject was taken up at the Cabinet
meeting on Tuesday last, and it was agreed to
again submit, the original propositions to Spain,
with the request, in substance, that they either
be accepted or rejected. Accordingly, Secre-.
tary Fish on Wednesday transmitted by cable
to Minister Sickles his instructions TO that effect.
