II is reported that BISMARCK has nent
word TO BrnSsroRFP TO come home, and that
North Germany will withdraw her Minister from
England so long as his remonstrances against
British constructions Of neutrality remain un-
hccded. When Lord CLARENDON told Mr.. Nor
Ltr that he could not pay any attention to Mr..
FisHs cfIusions, the Hon. HApnros at once went
on his knees before Mr. TnoRSroS, and told him
that he only meant his remarks in the PicKwick
ian sense, and did not intend to give any offence
Not he But then II must be borne in mind that
Providence, In its inscrutablc wisdom, has
created Fish for the antithetical purpose Of dis.
playing as much Iusillanimity as the German
statesman exhibits pluck. Mr.. Frsn, being be.
sides as great model Of department us TuRyEr.
DROP himself increases in courtesy toward Eng
land and Spain in proportion as he is snubbed
by these powers. II FIsH had, like BISMARCK,
told our Minister TO take his departure in the
event of the nou.scttlemeut Of the Alabama
claims, Professor AGAssis would have instantly
reversed all lis theories about chthyology. The
event would have been equivalent to revolution
in the laws Of nature, and who could have fore.

A letter from Cediz. dated Sept 60 and

The Cuban Junta has been dissolved by it's
President, Don MlGuEL DE ALBANIA. lie has
taken this course because Of the late proclama-
ton Of President GaASr against the arming Of
expeditions against foreign powers.
The Junta was at most but ON assembly Of
Cuban refugees, with whom Mr.. ALBANIA, who is
the general business agent Of the Cuban Repub-
lie in this country, chose TO divide the RESPONSE
bilities Of his onerous duties. In the manifesto
in which Mr.. ALBANIA dispenscs with the services
Of these associates. and relieves them from the
dire vengeance threatened by Gen. GRASr, Mr..
ALDAnA solemnly declares that since he has been
President Of the Junta no armed expedition has
been set on foot by that body, nor have the neu
traliy laws been violated in the slightest degree
Every vessel sent away from here for the relief
of the Cuban patriots has been previously
subjected 10 a rigorous, often TO ve1atious
search by the United States authorities.
The friends Of liberty will be happy to learn
that Mr.. ALDAM. distinctly declares that although
the Junta is dissolved, che and lis fellow-coun-
rymen will not cease TO labor In the cause Of the
independence Of his country. not only from this
classic land Of liberty, but likewise from others
which sympathize deeply, sincerely, and disinter-
cstcdly with the heroic efforts Of people who,
almost utterly resourceess, and with right rs
their only arm, fight cncrgcucally and desper.
