Amc rican Flag in Cubn.
KINGSTON, March IL, 1870.
The French mail steamer Darien from Santiago
de Cuba, arrived here yesterday. Among the pas
sengcrs is A. p Philips, the American Vice Consul
at Cuba, who has been compelled to leave the port
under extraordinary circumstances. 1t ap-
pears that about TWO weeks ago an Ameri-
can naturazed citizen named Poolnondo
bad been arrested, thrown into prison, and
without any formal trial, and IN defiance OF the
protest OF the American Consul, was shot. In adj
diIon to this, the American ship Champion bound
from Havana TO Jamaica, sprung aleak and was
compelled to nut into santiago &c Cuba. Owing to
slight nformality in her papers she was seized
by the Spanish authorities ana her captain and crew
taken prisoners. The vessel was put in charge Of
Spanish gunboat. The captain was refused perms-
sion TO communicate with the American Consul;
but under cover Of the night. he escaped ana
reached the Consulate.
MIR PhiIips recommended the captain to abandon
the vessel, having secured the release OF the crew
whom he took under ms personal charge, locating
them on his own estate for protection. The first
night that the captain was on shore an attempt was
made to poison him. but by the efficiency Of power
tul antdote timely administered his life was saved.
Immense excitement was created by the Catalan
volunteers against the Consul in consequence
OF these proceedings On Tuesday morning
ar hr,ncn" naners eonanno trans,a,,on ~
Mr.. Phillips report Of the PoruondO affair TO the
American government which had been called for by
Congress. This circumstance went far to intensity
the excitement among the Galatians aud they openly
threatened to assassinae the Consul. In this
gency Mr.. Phillips consulted Mr.. RanfsdeD the Brit
lsh Vice Consul, who Immediately waited upon the
Governor, Colonel Ojeda on the situation or affairs,
who stated that he could AFFORD guarantee for the
safety Oh the life Of the American Vice Consul ana
advised him extra officially and as personal friend
TO leave the CouEtry. Fortunately, before the close
OF the evening, when the infurated mob might have
mad an opportunity to carry their threat into ex-
ecutton, the French steamer arrived. and Mr. Phil
lips thought it prudent to close the doors OF the
consulate and take h,a departure ioI shs island.
