THE MISTAKE OF THE ADMINISTRA-
TION.
From The n. Y. Sun

from the ". 4. sun.
The works of supererogation which the
administration is now performing to aid Spain
in restoring her despotic rule in Cuba, impart
new force to the considerations often urged in
these columns.
Spain is now in the throes of a protraeted
revolution. Though her ancient institutions
have been overthrown, and her old dynasty
driven into exile, nobody can conjecture what
system of government will be finally set up
in their stead. Is there any fundamental
principle of international law which forbids
large foreign dependency of such a
crumbling power to follow the example of
the so-called mother country, to throw off
its feeble though CALLING chains and choose
a government for itself? Especially this
republic ought not to intervene to compel
Cuba to link her destiny to the sinking for
tunes of European despotism, whose tradi-
tional jealousy of this country has ceased to
be dangerous only because the nation which
cherishes it isno longer formidable.
Both Cuba and the United States would be
benefited by the admission of the former to
the American Union at the earliest suitable
moment. We have long had an eye upon the
Gem of the Antilles. 1t lies right under our
lee. it is the key of the Gulf, and we need it
as a station for our navy and our commercial
marine in the West Indies. The chief reason
why in years past our people have not unani-
mously demanded that their Government
should embrace every fair opportunity TO take
possession of this island, was our sectional
controversies over negro slavery. That stun
bling-block to unanimity of sentiment on this
subject has been swept away forever. The
path is now clear and national opinion de
mands that the United States move forward
and extend their benefcent sway over Cuba
SO soon as a majority of its inhabitants in
woke it. Meanwhile our traditional policy,
j. iVck
Hemisphere should put forth its mailed hand
to crush people struggling to throw off a
hated foreign yoke. d ..ll m ats
Beyond all question, it is the mismanaeed
Alabama imbroglio which Is driving the ad-
ministration into q false position on Cuban
atfeirs. Nj. Fish is afraid that sympathy for

the Cuban republicans may furnish Lord
Clarendon with an argument for repudiating
MIR. Summers sentimental rule Of conse-
quential damages in the Alabama case. But
that rule has already been repudated by the
great majority of the American people, and
we trust that our State Department and Mr..
Motley are too wise to dream of trying to
enforce IL; and TO any argument Of the British
Secretary drawn from this source it would be
sufficient for our envoy to reply, in diplomatic
phraseology that it is none of your business
what the American Government and people
think say, or do in regard to Cuba, for that
subject does not belong to the matters we
now have in hand.
The admins tration should retrace its steps
in this Cuban business. Leaving our people
to express their sympathies towards the strug-
Cling patriots in such proper modes as they
see fit, General Grant should await the oppor-
tune moment for active Intervention in behalf
of the republican cause in that island, and
should avail himself of it with decision.

The primary need of our whole country is

Senate that the place be Washington and not
London
To this suggested change Lord Stanley
agreed.
Thornton:-'I was under the impression,
which was also shared in by Mr.. johnson,
that the convention which had been signed,
being in accordance with his instructions as
construed by him, would meet with the app
proval of the United States Government"
Before long, Mr.. Seward comes to the con-
clusion that the 'claims convention" is not
entirely acceptable What induced the change
of opinion He so writes to Mr.. Reverdy
johnson, and transmits the desired modfca-
tions, and Lord Clarendon comedies, for
second time, substantially everything Seward
asks, under the implied if not express under
standing that il would meet the approval of
the Senate. The new treaty was signed in
January of this year, and the instrument re-
jected by every Republican vote in the
Senate Messrs. Seward and Evarts could not
secure a Senator for the convention they had
caused the English Ministry to believe would
be ratified by the Senate.
But this is not all, nor the worst In
March last, after President Grant had taken
power, and before the convention was acted
on by the Senate, Mr.. Reverdy Johnson sends
a note to Lord Clarendon, from which we
make this extract
"My Government believes, as I am now advised.
that 1t has claim of its own upon her Majestys
Government, because ofthe consequences resulting
from premature recognition of the Confederates
during our late war; and from the fitting ont OF the
Alabama and other similar vessels in her Majestys
ports, and from their permitted entrance into other
ports to be reftted and proYlsioned during their
plratcal cruise"
Here was third amendment to the much
amended convention; but before it could be
considered, news came in London of the re-
lection of the whOleinstrument
If anything exists in the books or in the
tradition of diplomacy more disgraceful to a
nation than this conduct of the Republican
party in power in its treatment of foreign
nation is to the United States, we are yet
to know what and where it is. 1t will be inn
possible for high-toned American to read,
without emotions of anger and modification,
this record, as given in the volume referred
to, of the disgraceful selfishness, personal
rivalry, pickering, jealousy, and absence of
all sense of national honor among the Repub-
lican politicians then in power, and who were
charged with the management in the Cabinet
and Sen ate of our foreign affairs.

Fairfield,

They had large meeting in the
public square at Fairfield, last Satur-
day, to raise stock for the Chicago
and Southwestern Railroad, which
was addressed by Hon. j. f. Wilson,
D. p. Stubbs, Chas. Negus and 9TH
crs. The Ledger, from which we
CLEAN the following, does not inform
US of the amount raised:
aIon. d. p. Stubs then addressed
the audience for short time in
forcible, impressive manner, and of
fcred the following resolution, which
was unanimously adopted:
Resolved, That it is the sense of
this meeting that One Hundred Thou
sand Dollars can and will be taken
in the stock Of the contemplated RR.
from Washington via Fairfield, Iowa;

pledge ourselves to efforts common

grand, inspiring spectacle, as was
never witnessed before, since the
morning stars first sang together for
oy, during which excitement the
people rushed into the square by the
score, and being pretty well bcreft of
their reason by the clamor of this
grand doublc-headed combination,
were easily enough diddled out OF
their notes, payable on the compile
ton of the project.
This is the latest development of

So much has been said in favor of

so many arguments have been SO for

should be constructed through our
city of Ottumwa, that we quite des-
pair o. saying anything new upon
the subject, or of adducing any new
reasons why we should secure it at
every hazard. The future high os-
tate of Ottumwa in the event of her
getting the road has been graphically
pictured, while the stagnation that
must inevitably follow the location
of the road through her rival towns,
has been wildly portrayed on more
than one occasion. Our people have

A young son of Eli Allen, about 2
years of age, in attempting to lift

were SO severe that he died in about
three hours after the accident. The

Correction.

Weunintentionally done the daugh-
ter Of Mr.. Stout, proprietor of +he
De Moine Honse, at Des Moines,
great injustice in a recent item which
was collated from the Davenport
Journal.
That paper makes the following
correction, which we chcerfully re-
publish in Justice to the parties con.
cerned:
"A few days ago an article was
published in our local columns in a
mistaken conception OF facts, which
did great injustice to a young lady,
whose only real offence was childish
imprudencc which she now regrets
as much as her friends can, and in
volving no criminality which night
disgrace herself and family. The
facts ofthe case have been given us
by her father, and Marshal Kaufman
ofthis city. 1t appears she left her
home at Des Moines, after a slight
difference with an older sister, with
out the knowledge OF her family, and
with means borrowed from friend,
intending to fly to some relatives in
Indiana. She wasvery youthful, and
acted impetuotsly and inprudently.
She took the cars from this city, with
no man in company as stated, nor
other company, aud she did not stop
night on the way. On arriving
here she remained couple of hours
at the Scott House TIL the arrival of
steamboat, on which she took pas
sage to ST. Louis, intending to 60
thence to Terre Haute, near which
place her relatives live. On the boat
she was taken charge of by the Cap.
tain, and made the companion and
roommate of his two daughters till
they arrived at St. Louis, where she
was met by her father and our mar
shall who had gone by rail, and bro't
back to this city.
We can only express our regrets at
the publication of an article SO unjust
to any person, more especially to a
young lady, although the writer, in
bis supposed knowledge of the facts,
certainly intended to wrong no one.
The father of the miss. is an old and
estlmable citizen of Des Moines, and
any reference to him in the article
alluded to which might have convey
cd any other impression, were entire
ly incorrect"
