The first olored baptist church, OF
Cairo, has deposed the Rev. Jacob Brad
ley-dismissed him from the ministry.
They frame against Jacob, the following
Indictment: "'N
First, that Jacob Bradley was guilty Of
creating faction in the church to which
he belongs; second, that he Is guilty Of
creating discord between man aud wife;
third, that he will dcfraud his church,
and fourth, that things would not stay
long where Jacob passes by.
Now 1t may come to pass that Jacob
will deny the right Of the First colored
Baptist church," or any other earthly
power, to stop the flow from his classic
ioague Of the "spostolic truths and sed.
iments" that have so often electrified
his sheep and made him so popular
among the ewes. Jacob was "called,"
and to say that he shall not answer the
call is to deny an American citizen the
sacred right of free speech. What will
Jacob do? "Nosis rey7ons."

THE LONDON PRESS ON THE CUBAN QUESTION
ENGLAND OPPOSED TO CUBAN INDEPENDENCE.
LONDON, April 2l.-The London journals to-day
have articles on the Cuban question. The Telegraph
Mnlsterial is moderate in its tone. 1t says In re-
gard to the Independence of Cuba: England is I'M
biased but it is best for English interests that Spain
retain her authority in the island. We do not
say that in any case 1t would be the business
of England to interfere to prevent Cuban independ
ence but her good offices might be useful to avert
quarrel between Spain and the United States. The
seizure of the brig Mary Lowell is designated mad
act, duplicating England, SPANS best friend. in
quarrel with America unless she resents the insult
The Telegraph argues that the Cubans can never
willingly attach themselves to American rule.
The O,cl this evening says President Grant has run
mad on the subject of Cuba, and thinks England and
Franco will declare war if the United States at
tempt to wrest the Island from Spain. 1t con-
tinues: Grant longs for foreign war; The
pervading feeling among present American officials
is one of hatred to England and in less degree to
France. The Otcl states that in day or two yacht
will leave for Cuba mission from the Govern
ment to ascertain the exact position OF affairs, and
concludes by declaring its belief that heavy storm
is brewing

The Erie bill hangs fire. Jay Gould telegraphs

those who are in the inside, that this is merely q

to keep whoever they please in the Board of Direc-

1t will not be Gould, Fisk, Tweed, Sweeny, and
Hugh Smith Tweed and Sweeny's great object is
to play the role of Dean Richmond, and make the
