A SPANISH l3lCk exposed.

NEW YORK Feb. g. 1870.
To THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD
On Wednesday last forwarded to several OF the
daily newspapers OF TINS city copy of telegram
received by me that day, signed with tho name Of
the agent OF the Cuban Junta In Key West. 1 en-
close you the original which Of itself proves the
fasehoOd Of the assertion contained In Times OF
this day. The suspicion dld not strike me at the
time that the telegram might be u Spanish trick.
The Spanish officials had previously signed my name
and those OF some OF my colleagues TO a proclama-
ti0n which they fOolishy trusted might be Of to
them In the 1eld IN Cuba, ana 1t is not impossible
that, disgusted with the failure OF their forgery but
NOT ashamed OF the act they should have forged the
telegram to me for use In washington. The sour
rllous impatatOn contained IN the Times Of this
morning gives strength to the suspicion.
