WARRINGTON, April g. 1869.
Tho Sale of the Peruvian Monitors TO Cubans
Not Permitted by the United Stntes-Bellige.
rent Rights to be Extended to the Cubans.
The rumor that the two Peruvian irOn-clads
would probably be transferred to the Cuban pro-
visional government is not credited In government
circles here. There is good authority for
the belief that this government would
not countenance an act of the kind. The
representatives Of the Cuban revolution have been
given to understand that this administration would
not regard with favor any act likely to affect the
commercial interests OF any power friendly to the
United States. In 9th er words, this country will
not be guilty Of the duplicity that characterized
the action OF England during our civil war. At the
same time the representatives Of the Cuban move
ment have been assured OF the sympathy and to
some extent the substantial aid of our government.
There is reason 70 believe that at distant day
beligerent rights Will be extended to the struggling
Cubans, thus guaranteeing them all the facilities for
procuring the munitions Of war which the Spaniards
now enjoy in the cities Of this country.
