News Regarding European ARnirs-The Mary
Powell Seizure Denounced Trouble Appre-
bended.
By Atlantic Gable.
LONDON, April 2l.-The London papers OF to-
day comment very freely on the present state of
affairs in Cuba.
The Telegraph, ministerial organ, moderate
in tone, says that in regard to the independence
of Cuba England is unbiased, but at the same
time admits that England's interests can be best
subserved by Spain retaining her authority in
the island. The article does not say, however,
that in any case it should be the duty OF England
to interfere and endeavor to prevent Cuban in
dependence, but it maintains that the good
offices of England might prove useful to avert
quarrel between Spain and America. 1t desig-
mates the seizure of the ship Mary Powell as a
mad act, duplicating England, Spain's best
friend unless the latter country offers reparation
for the insult. The article then goes on to argue
that the Cubans can never willingly attach them
self to the United States.
The London O,ol of this evening also has its
say on Cuban matters. 1t argues that President
Grant has been mad on the subject of Cuba, and
thinks that England and France would declare
war if America attempts to wrest the island from
Spain. Grant, says the O'ol longs for "a foreign
war, knowing, as he does, that the feeling at
intense hatred to England and, though in less
degree, to France.
1t is stated that in day or two yacht will be
despatched from here to Cuba on mission from
the Government, so ascertain the exact position
of affairs there.
The belief is that heavy storm is brewing
which may yet occasion much trouble.

The Freshet al Albany.

ALBANY April 22-The water here is higher
than ever before known for a spring reshet
without ice. 1t has reached point within two
feet of the great freshet of 1857, and is still
rising steadily against strong northwest wind.
The lower section of the city is completely inun-
dated, and Broadway, for distance of a quarter
of u mile, is navigable for boats. The steamer
Drew, of the Peoples Line is compelled to land
at the high dock of the Boston Railroad, on the
opposite side of the river, and the passengers
were brought to this city across the railroad
bridge whilst the freight is transferred to
barges. The Drew will leave from East Albany
tonight
The flood along the valley of the Mohawk is
the greatest ever known in chat locality. The
railroad tracks are under water for miles. No
trains have passed over them since Tuesday
night. 1t is supposed that the track has been
washed away in many places.
The Rensselaer, and Saratoga Railroad is five
feet under water between here and Troy.
