Dur Cuban News.

Onr correspondence from Havana published
this morning is rendered unusually interest
ing and important by letter purporting to
have been written to the Marquis of Santa
Lucia and captured by the Spaniards. 1t
reads like genuine document, and while the
source from whence it is derived is none Of the
the most trustworthy we are inclined to give it
credence. In very clear style this letter ex-
plains the end Of the dissensions which pre-
vented the Cuban patriots from acting together
with that unanimty SO essential to the success
of struggling nationality. 1t seems that
General Quesada was the principal cause OF
this lack Of harmony. He was unfit for the
position OF commander-iu-chief; his arbitrary
conduct made him unpopular, to say nothing
of his absolute want of military ability. The
Cuban House Of Representatives appears to
have acted with prompt decision in deposing
him, and all friends of Cuban independence
will be grati6ed by the intelligence that his
successor, General Jordan, is popular with the
people, aud, from the teh0r Of the letter, has
already succeeded in reconciling differences
"
If, then, this letter be u genuine document it
indicates that the Cubans are alive to the ini-
portance of harmony in their ranks and are
willing TO abandon personal prejudices for the
general welfare of their country. five
Our cable telegram from Havanatis also in
vested with some Importance. lGptain Gen
eral De Rodas has issued fpclamation
granting liberty to two thousand Negroes who
had been taken prisoners OF war and hired out
by the government. They are declared In
vested with all the rights of freedom and are
promised the fullest protection. ri this action
of De Rodas be an initiatory step towards the
emancipation of the colored people, it
is significant indication that Spain is
preparing to abandon her pro- slavery
policy. At the same time it must be
remembered that by the constitution of the
Cuban republic all tho negroes were declared
free; consequently the slaves referred to were
such only by the fact of their falling into the
hands of the Spaniards. 1t is to be deplored
that in the same despatch announcing the
PRONUNCIATION Of this proclamation is contained
the intelligence OF the trial, conviction and
execution of eighteen Cubans in Santiago de
Cuba on charge of belonging to the patriot
junta Of that city. This brutality, however, is
in strict accordance with the Spanish barbaric
policy towards defenccless Cu,ans.

lmportuut News from Frnncc-Pari'ameut-
ary Reuc,ian and Defeat Of Olivier.
BY cable telegram from Paris VIC have the
highly important intelligence that the Olivier
Ministry sustained very decisive parliament
ary defeat in tho French Legislature yesterday.
Premier Olivier, In the elaboration Of bis plan
Of franchise and electoral reform, proposed to
abolish the present system Of official candida
tnre at elections, or to do away with the
nomination and recommendation Of candidates
before the people by the executive. This
was too much-a stride too far ahead
of terrorism and corruption. It reused
the reactionary spirit of the Assem-
bly,. Tho proposition was violently re-
sisted and M. Olivier clanorously in
terruptcd during the course Of his exposition.
The members Of the Right moved that the
Assembly take up the order of the day. The
Premier persisted to speak, nevertheless, as
serting that the government could not disavow
its principles. A division having been taken
the motion of the Right was adopted by vote
of 1877 against Sc.
AHiS ACpuAt was CohsiuciCu do S4uuVdieit "
q vote of want Of confidence in the Ministry.
The announcement produced very considerable
agitation in Paris. According to English par
liamentary rule It should cause an immediate
resignation of the Ministry. In Paris, how
ever, the questions remain, Can the Olivier
Cabinet resign? II it does what will ensue !?
Another advance towards radical democracy,
another lowering Of the imperial ensign, or a
retrocession in favor Of the ''one man" privi-
original dynastic plan? Il is very difficult to
say just now,

The Unfortunate Whitlemorc.

The trial Of this poor carpet-bagger for
selling his cadctships was ended somewhat
ludicrously in The House of Representatives
yesterday The few hours intervening between
the adjournment on Wednesday and the reas-
scmbllng on Thursday were passed to good effect
by the accused, for he succeeded in telegraph
ing his resignation to the Governor Of his
State and receiving an acceptance Of it in
time TO present it to the Speaker of the House
while his case was awaiting action yesterday
This blocked the expulsion game. White
more was safe from the claws OF the Military
Committee. He became simply an ordinary
citizen, and was no longer member Of the
House. Then ensued the Mdicrous part of
the transaction. Logan and his virtuous co,s-
.Jieres, hungry for an example, abused the
poor fellow without stint, and denied him the
privilege of making any defence, OH the very
ground which he had worked so hard to secure
that he was no longer member of the House.
In addition to sitting him thus, they passed
resolution, in lieu OF the proposed expulsion,
condemning his course in unnleasured terms
by vote Of one hundred and eighty-fve--not
p single member voting against it--nOt even
the brave and fearless Butler, who had de-
Tended him so faithfully up to that hour
that one could hardly help suspecting that
fellow feeling made him 80 wondrous kind.
il was not so, however. The defence OF
Whittemore was mere case at law that Bntler
conducted on the floor of the House as he
might have conducted it in the law courts
of Massachusetts. He had q right to vote
against bis client if he liked. If, however he
accepts pay as tho counsel of Whttemore
may he not lay himself liable to charge
of bribery, as Whttemore did? We may be
sure Butler is too well posted to lay himself
liable to any such charge. 1t was just
