DIPLOMATIC UNEAsINEss "


There has been considerable unea--
in official circles to-day over the publish
ed information that a vessel sailed on
Saturday last for Cuba from New York,
with several hundred armed men on
board Telegrams from United States
officers in New York, state that they
knew nothing whatever about the expe-
dition before 1t started, and have been
able to learn but little about it since it
left. The propriety of issuing
A NEUTRALITY PROCLAMATION.
Has been discussed, but nothing has been
concluded nor is there likely to be any
thing of the kind issued Senor Roberts,
the Spanish Envoy, is quite exercised
about this expedition, and says if he had
received an intimation he should have
promptly called the attention of Govern
ment to it. He failed to-day, however,
to find that the authorities here had any
intelligence of what had been aene; but
he telegraphed to the Spanish officials at
Havana of the reported sailing of the
expedition.
THE REMOVAL OF woRKMEN
From the Navy Yards for political rea-
sons is about to be inaugurated here, in
order that the Republicans may carry
the ward in which the yard is situated, at
the coming municipal election. This OBJ
jeet is frankly avowed by the Republican
! papers, who demand that FIVE hundred
| Democratic laborers and mechanics be at
once dismissed. The evening Republi-
can paper calls on the Navy Department
to proceed in this matter with great eau
| ton, SO that efficient mechanics mag not
be removed simply because they are
| Democrats.
THE FOREIGN MISSIONS
Still hang fire. Ex-senator Carlisle was
at the White House to-day, urging his
claims for the mission to Stockholm, aud
impressing the President that the charges
made against him in the Senate Chat he
had been in sympathy with the Demo
cratic party) were untrue. The Presi-
dent said that he had been soundly abus-
ed by some of his party friends for some
of his foreign appointments, and he
/ should move cautiously in the future.
SAN DOMINGO.
Gen. Logan called at the Executive
mansion to-day in company with the
commercial agent of San Domingo, who
desires to sell that island, or transfer il
\ in some way to the United States, but
they failed to obtain an interview.
~ CHINA.
ThSdispatches received from our Min
ister to China are of the same character
as those of the British Minister there
representing that the Chinese are really
/ opposed to progress, and will not permit
the improvements contemplated by Bur
ll.ngame' mission. The Government will
insist on the fulflment of the treaty ne
i gotiated yearsince with the Embassy
