CANANDAIGuA, July 14.-The trial Of G. W
Mannix on an Indictment Of violating the neu-
uality laws commenced this morning at nine
O'Clock. III. .. Chesboro of Canandaigua, coun-
sci for ManniX said he was authorized TO with
draw the plea Of not guilty as 20 the last two
counts, which charged the prisoner with pro yid-
ing boxes containing arms and Ammunition,
which were shipped 10 him, and through him
furnished to the Fenians. Mannix was A cap
tain during the rebellion.
Mr.. Dorsheimer moved for judgement
Judge Woodruff In sentencing Starr said IL
was a painful duty. The case had been sub
mitted TO an unbiased and intelligent Jury, who
bad found the only possible verdict for a con-
scientious jury TO render I'm the case. Former
service OF the prisoner in defence Of the coun-
uy led the entire community 20 expect from
him obedience TO the laws. As the jury had
recommended the prisoner to mercy, he would
instead of inning him S3 900 with imprisenmen mt,
sentence TO two years imprisonment in the Au-
ourh jail and TO pay a fine OF ten dollars
In the case of Thompson, As there was
no consideration emitting him to greater
leniency, he would pass the same sentence on
him. Starr and Thompson were found guilty. on
the first three counts, and not guilty on the last
two. The judge said Mannix had wisely pleaded
guilty, and stood penitently before the court
hewould therefore sentence him TO one year inn
prisonment and tine Of Sl0. A deathly silence
prevailed while the sentence was being passed
No demonstration was made. The prisoners
friends pressed around and bid them farewell
Dorsheimer and other counsel shook hands with
them, and they were removed by Marshal Ha-
zen. They will go TO Auburn to morrow. The
court Will adjourn to- day.

PRESIDENTS MEssAsE-EMANcEPArIo OF
SLAVES IN CUBA.-The President to-day sent q
message to the Senate in regard to the emanci-
patton of the slaves in Cuba in reply to the res
OlutiOn of the Senate Of the 6th inst. The mes
sage contains a copy of q bill for the abolition
of slavery on the island, presented to the Span
ish Cortes on the 18th Of May, and forward
together with q translation Of the debate
thereon. MIR. Fish, in reply, informs Minister
Sickles, under date Of June 10th, that the
plan proposed by the Madrid Cabinet falls far
short Of what the government had q reasonable
manifesting a desire to cordially cooperate
with us in the exttrpation of this blot on ciyil-
zation. Our government had regarded the
Spanish government as committed to the aboli-
Sickles, II IL should be regarded that the in
snrrection had been suppressed, to frankly
state that this government, relying on the
assurances 70 often given would expect steps to
be taken for the emancipation Of slaves in the
Spanish colonies. In communication. dated
June 26th, Minister Sickles informs the Depart
ment Of State Of the passage Of the bill for the
emancipation OF certain classes Of slaves in the
Spanish colonies, with various amendments
among which he mentions those changing from
90 to 90 years the age to be attained when slaves
born before September, 1868, become free;
mother of children under IA years old, and
placing restrictions on punishment with the
lash" While conscious Of the insuficiency of
this measure, Minister Sickles regards it as the
beginning of the end, and adds: "This govern
ment has now, for the first time, distinctly and
emancipation; and in this step it must be q
source Of great satisfaction to the President that
the influence Of the United States has been so
conspicuous and beneficial"
