Mr. Trsn vitatcs all his arguments in his

Mr. FIsH vitiates all his arguments In his
Cuban message by supprcssing the truth rcspect-
ing the origin Of the Cuban rebellion. II began
with the overthrow Of the legitimate Govern
ment Of Spain and the fact that the Cubuns de-
clned to recognize the parties who usurpcd the
throne of Queen ISABELLA. The Cubans having
withheld their allegiance from the new order Of
things at Madrid, the Spanish authorities in lla-
vana IRE the usurpers. If Mr.. Fish had told the
truth, he would have ceased to be the pet Of
PRn and sERnASo, and his son-in-law, SIDNEY
WEBSTER, would have got no more purses Of
seventeen thousand dollars in gold. How can an
American ruler be expected TO give faithful
narrative Of events WHEN by doing so he may
incur the displeasure Of Spanish Adventures and
Shareholders, by whom his son.nlaw is employed
and paid?

1t Is rumored that some OF the removals or

STATE Department were in consequence OF its hav-
ing been reported to the SECRETARY that one OF his
employees had spoken oisrespectIully OF him in a

upon It, had called MIN a sardine IN q common bar,

1t Is said, however, that the supposed delinquent
was only inadvertently guilty, meant no disrespeet
but, indeed, was standing up for the honor OF his
cIief on the occasion in question The story goes
that Some one remarked In no eronoe to the Presi.
cents recent pscatorial excursion that he hoped
Gen. Grant would be more lucky than last time he
went fishing, when he thought he had landed WLalo
In the State Department, and found that he had
got Fish that was not SOeH a sardine" The state
Department employee indignantly denied the asser.

CALEB CUSHING has been the marplot OF
many Adm nistrations. He led the famous
guard Of JOIN TYLER, and TYLER fell
an easy prey TO CLAY. He was the chief
counsellor and evil genius of PIERCE on the
Kansas-Nebraska question, and PIERCE sank
into contempt, and the Democratic party
dropped into decay. He was the adviser Of
BUCHANAN, and the Sage of Wheatland be-
came q byword and the Democracy heap
of ruins. lie has been the inspiration of
SUMMERS extravagant utteranccs on the
Alabama controversy, and is the retained
counsel of both LOPEZ ROBERTS and
HAMILTON FISH in Cuban aftairs. This re.
lation 10 ROBERTS and FISH is natural, for
Mr.. CUSHING was the Attorney General of
FRANK PIERCE during the four years that
SIDNEY WEBSTER was PIERCE's private
secretary.
AS Mr., CUSHING was influential in running
the Administrations of TYLER, PIERCE, and
BUCHANAN, there is every probability that
he will have equal success in his dealings
with that OF GRANT.

The speech of Gen. BANKS in the House
Of Representatives on Tuesday is pronounced
by common consent 10 have been the ablest
in argument, the noblest in feeling and the
most impressive in eloquence that has been
heard in Washington since the opening of the
present Congress, The Heralds correspon
dent says, 1t was the most effective thing
have heard here in over three years" The
same writer adds that several times the ex.
element and enthusiasm found freedom in
applause, clapping of hands, and stamping
OF feet, and murmurs of appreciation from
members themselves, This is Il rare compli.
mont in these days but il was richly de
served by BANKS"
The correspondent Of the 7riJune states
that Gen. BANKs's reasoning on the fact that
one-half of the known combatants had lost
their lives in the struggle 30 far, his show
ing how impossible and undesirable 1t was
for the Cubans TO attempt the holding of
towns or fortified places, and his comments
on the attempt to prove that state Of war
did not exist because the SpGhards refused
30 follow any other rule than that of mere
barbaric tyranny, and tho Cubans were com
PEELED in sclfdeience TO rctallatc, and that
under the strict letter OF the laws Of war as
laid down in our own war, If regarded as one
OF the most effective pieces of parliamentary
and forensic skill ever witnessed in the House.
Gen. BANKS produced a sensation when h,
quoted from both documents the words an
occasional bullet md declared, in an indig
nant manner and voice, that he had heard il
before, and could recognize its paternity. i
was understood that he referred to CALEB

II is remarkable that Mr. HAMILTON FIsn's
Spanish message on Cuba, which Gen. GRAsr
adopted and signed, omits all reference TO the
fact that the first act Of the Cuban revolution
was to proclaim the abolition Of slavery and the
political equality of oil men. Probably Messrs
FrsB and GRASr supposed that any such reference
in their message would only tend to strengthen
the sympathy Of the American people for the
Cuban cause

Married women in South Carolina will

time of her marriage shall be subject to
levy or sale for her husbands debts, but
shall he her separate property-and thai
she may manage and dispose of tue same
in all respects as though she were man.
