rne Quaker City saudale.

Whenever Spain gets into any trouble with
her dissatisfied colonists the first step of the
Spanish officials is to send a few thousand dol
lars to New York as q detective fund to find
out what the American sympathizers with the
Cuban malcontents are doing. No sooner does
the CLEAN of the Spaniard's gold irradiate the
detective vision than information and know
ledge Of vast proportions flow in upon the
Spanish official. Conspiracies, treasons, pratt
cal expeditions and filibuster operations of
magnitude proportioned to the amount of pay
forthcoming for the information I'LL the air
around him, and, passing through the alembic
of his Imagination, are poured into the ears of
the Cabinet at Washington and the government
In Cuba. We have no doubt the Spanish spies
earn their money, if not with facts at least
with the fruits of fervid and gold stimulated
poetic vein which serve every purpose that
facts would serve.
This seems to be the case just now with the
steamship Quaker City, which government has
been watching for month past with all the
vigilance of a cat over a mouse hole, and which
In moment Of pro-Spanish enthusiasm it has
at last pounced upon. A showing Of the facts
by the British Minister satisfied even our slow
and timid Secretary Of State that a muddle was
before him, but with wonderful wisdom he con-
suited with the Treasury Commander, and
then both together jumped into it. Rising
from the unexpected situation, it is gravely
announced that as they have put their feet in
1t they will let the courts get them out The
case is a pertinent example Of the injustice
which, under the fallacy of complying with our
neutrality laws, can be 80 wantonly inflicted
on the citizen. The owner must 60 to law and
spend quarter, half, or it may be the whole
of his property in question to prove that the
government has got into a muddle, and then
whistle for justice. We advise Secretaries
Fish and Boutwell, to look before they leap
next time.

The schoeppe Murder Trial Mt Carlisle.
CARLISLE, May -, 1859.
The prosecution nave already occupied three days
and half In the schoeppe murder trial. and have
bat one more witness TO examine. Tho direct testl-
mony Of persons who we're present during the illness
OF Miss stennecke goes TO show that she died from
no natural cause but must have died from some yio-
lent dose either taken by herself administered TO
her by the prisoner. Dr. Conrad, OF the Baltimore
InGrmary, testified that he made post mortem ex-
animation, and that the healthy condition OF her
organs proved that Bhe died from q violent cause.
Professor Aiken OF the Maryland University, testified
that he anayzed the stomach and intestncs OF the
deceased. twelve or thirteen days after death, and
found faint but unequvocal traces OF prussic acid
Dr. Herman OF this place, who attended the deceased
during her illness, testified that In his opinion her
condition Indicated that abe died from compound
prussic acid and morphia. Dr. Kieffer and others
testified IN answer 10 hypothetical case presented
10 them. that she died rom no natural cause OPP
portunity and motive are clearly proven, and the
question rests upon the suiclency OF medical testi
Inony on this subject. The counsel for the defence
feel very hopeful one OF the strongest grounds In
proving the motive was the production OF Will,
dated and executed very short time previous 10
her death, which bequeaths her entire estate to the
prisoner. lie aud hts father were the only sub
scribing witnesses TO the will.

Thomas Concerts at Central Park Garden.
To those who prefer or are obliged to spend
the summer in the city Mr.. Thomas presents
rare feast of enjoyment at Central Park
Garden. Four years ago he inaugurated his
summer concerts at Terrace Garden, and his
undertaking was then considered by many the
height of rashness, as it involved no little risk
and expense to engage such large and well
appointed orchestra for the summer months
when all the fashionable patrons of music are
supposed to be out Of town. The success Of
the first and second seasons was such that
it necessitated on Mr.. Thomas part removal
to more central location and more extensive
quarters. Hence the beautiful garden In which
those concerts now take place, with its splendid
hall and adjoining building, was opened last
summer. Audiences OF. nearly three thousand
people have again necessitated new hall,
which will be completed next month. The
arrangements of the present hall and garden,
under the direction of Mcssrs. Gosche &,
SCHNEIDER, will compare favorably with those
of any summer garden even in Germany, the
home of music. The character of the audience
is also remarkable for popular summer con-
certs. Fashion is by no means the exception,
but more general than at many of our leading
theatres. The orchestra has been considerably
enlarged this season, and they are now unit
in precision Of playing, grandeur Or tenderness
of expression, and in accordance with the ideas
of the composer. 1t is worth month at
fashionable watering place to visit Central
Park Garden in the evening and
listen to the strains of Mendels-
sohn, Strauss, Beethoven, Rossini and
other eminent composers. The programmes
are always Of a high order Of music, no trash
or sensational nonsense being permitted to
appear on them. In this particular Mr..
Thomas has earned the gratitude of every true
musician by steadily refusing to countenance
the trash which burlesque and London concert
saloon singers have brought here under the
name of music. The public are always sure
to recognize merit sooner or later, and to
rebuke aught that savors of humbug in art.
Hence, doubtless, the great success which has
attended the Central Park Garden concerts,
and which is still on the increase. No better
entertainment could be suggested for the
public Of the metropolis during the dog days.

trusted with the observance Of inssrnationai
obligations and law.
Commenting on the avcrment and argument
of the Lairds, the London StGpdard, an organ
Of the aristocrats, acknowledges that the
builders are innocent, morally and legally, and
''that it is not clear that the law Of nations
was not violated" The London Star, which
speaks for John Bright and his supporters,
proclaims that Laird's letter saggravates the
case against the British government" and
goes on to show that the provisions of the
Foreign Enlistment act were knowingly set at
naught in the instance Of the Alabama. This
complexion of the case is very pleasing. In
the event of war with the United States the
aristocracy of England will be swept away as
class, the working classes burdened with
still more ruinous amount of taxation, and the
shipbuilding firm Of Messrs. Laird perhaps
disappear. The Alabama claims bill will be
paid in view Of such contingencies.

England on the Alabama Cnse-Eacct of
the War Aspect.
The determined purpose of the American
people TO exact from England reparation, as
complete as it can be made, for the injury and
losses inflicted on our commerce by the pirate
Alabama during o moment Of almost deadly
national peril, has in its latest expression
evidently set John Bull thinking seriously on
Tho subject. Minister Motleys arrival in
London, where no doubt the general tenor Of
his instructions on the matter was already
very we'll known, appears to have aided the
British cogitation vastly; 30 much so, indeed,
that John appears to have arrived at the very
lorical conclusion that the bill must be dis
charged or war-a war Of irreparable damage
60 his interests and final between the two
nations--may ensue. Looking TO such an
event,,aIiiy the parties most deeply interested
In ia cause and probable consequences--thc

In tho words of defence, recrimination, legal

our special cable telegram from London this
morning. Influenced by the conservatism Of
trade aud cash capital, with the dread Of fu-
iurc losses, Messrs. Laird print letter in the
Euglish journals in which they directly charge
that tho executive Of the day in London, and,
by constitutional inheritance the government
OF to-day, Is alone 10 blame In the matter !;
that The operations Of the Confederate agents
for the building, arming and manning OF the
Alabama were well known TO the members OF
the Cabinet by public rumor and official re-
port, and that II was obviously the duty Of the
government TO have prevented her leaving
port. This Is the most intelligent testimony
which wc have yet had on the subject, and it
