The following despatch has been received
from the HERALD correspondent at the capt.
tai Of SPAIN ~
MADRID, July 10, 1871.
in spite Of the expressing heat the Cortes
has been engaged for the last two days In
exciting and fruitless debates on the provin-
Cial policy of the government.
NJ. CASTELAR,, the leader Of the republican
party, attacked the Ministry vehementy. He
said that tho government had not fulfilled any
of the promises which it had made to the
country and that its policy has thus far been
barren of results.
The party in power, he said, had one by
one put in practice all those measures which
1t had censured under preceding administra-
tlons.
RATHER SEVERE ON THE MINISTRY.
Senor Tollentes, of the moderados, then
pombated the vacillating conduct of the gov
Arnment with regard to Cuba.
He denounced the Cabinet for having enter
tained the proposition said to have emanated
from United States Minister Sickles for the
sale of CUBA course calculated to encour-
age the insurrection in the island aud to keep
hp useless agitations in the United States.
HIGHFLowN PHRASES.
The speaker said while patriotism beats in
Spanish hearts Cuba will not be alienated from
The mother country.
In the name of his party he presented a
motion for the vigorous prosecution Of the
#ar to prevent the loss of Cuba.
He urged the Cortes to grant additional
funds, if necessary, for the speedy suppression
of the instruction.
:SeEor Arvuelles, Of the Carlist party, sup
ported the motion. He secuted the PROPOSE
ton of selling Cuba.
1t was finally resolved by large majority
that Cuba should be kept at all hazards.
THE TOBACCO MONOPOLY MAINTAINED.
The Cortes then approved, without discus
sion or amendment, the bill providing for til.

e Further news from Admiral Rodgers feet
at the Corea has been received.
The gunboats Monocacy and Palos, with
four steam launches well equipped with ma
rines and artillery, started up the river to
reconnoitre the enemy's preparations for de-
fence early in June. They had proceeded
about ten miles from the mouth of the river
when they were fired upon by two Corean
forts.
The fire wounded two of our men, whose
names I have not been able to ascer-
tain. A broadsde was Immediately returned
from all the vessels on the reconnaissance,
and a sharp interchange Of compliments en-
sued.
A note, signed by the chief counsellor Of the
King, was sent to our boats by single mes
senger during the firing, in which it was stated
that the Coreans refused to hold any inter-
course whatever with foreign nations, and
that the crew of the American ship General
Sherman were put to death under the laws of
the land because they were guilty of piracy
and murder after they had been shipwrecked.
Our vessels returned to their anchorage
after receiving this letter and taking as clear
survey of the works as possible under the
circumstances.
Admiral Rodgers now awaits further in
structions from Washington.
