Mr.. cushing's View. Of His Mission.

Our correspondent at Washington has had
an interview with Mr. Cushing with regard to
that gentleman's mission to Spain. The views
expressed on that occasion are published in
another part of the paper. Mr.. Cushing
seems to feel the Importance Of his appoint
ment, and is eager and ready to start at once
to Madrid as soon as the Senate acts upon his
his appointment will be promptly confirmed,
both out of regard to the wish of the Presi-
dent and because every one admits he is a
most capable man. 1t would have been more
satisfactory if MIR. Cushing had been more ex-
plicit as to the precise object of his mission.
He was rather diplomatic in speaking only
in general terms But we may inter, we think
that the principal object in view is to
make treaty with Spain, more or less Of
a commercial character and with special
reference to the trade with Cuba He speaks
q great deal of old treaties, their inapplicabil-
ity to existing circumstances, and of the neces-
sity for new treaty. The Virginius matter he
regards as about settled. He avoids, SEEM
ingly, what is, after all, the paramount ques-
tion-the political condition and future of
Cuba. He ignores the formidable, 1ong-stand-
ing and exhausting instruction, and does not
appear to contemplate the independence Of the
patriot Cubans. In all this he reflects, no
doubt, the sentiments Of the administration, or
at least of the State Department, though it is
said he has large margin of discretion to act
90 circumstances NAV roruiro That bio MIC
sion is regarded as anti-Cuban and reaction
airy, as being particularly friendly to Spain
and against the Cubans, we have evidence
both in the tone of the administration press
and in the exulting language of the Span
ish newspapers in this city and Cuba. We
protesting in advance against the policy fore
Swallowed, for it means the abandonment of
that generous and liberal course towards Amer
lean populations struggling for freedom and
independence which has characterized our
government and country throughout the his
tory of the Republic. And we warn the gov
eminent not to enter into any entangling ALI
ances with European Power with regard to
American questions, or, in fact, regarding any
questions here or abroad. Let us follow the
policy Of the great statesmen Of former times.
If in the time of our weakness we proclaimed
and adhered to a strictly American policy,
surely we should not abandon it in the day of
our power. Keeping in view the policy i'm
piled by what is known as the Monroe doc
trine, let us pursue o course to separate
American territory from European rule or in
fuence rather than to establish the opposite
condition. We fear the government is about
to tread on dangerous ground, to act in oppo-
sition to public sentiment in this country and
TO lay the foundation Of future complications
and trouble.

N1Fs E1obnrtsa Reply to the Charges Of
purloiminE Dispatches.
TO tho Editor Of The Chicago 7711une:
Sin: Without intending, lam sure, to do my
injustice, your paper this morning contained an
article founded largely OIL misstatcmcnta, 80 far
ia the American Press Association, Of which
nm the Northwestern agent, is concerned. Your
statement that tho Ecc'.ing Matt onco or twice
during lie last few weeks wns furnished with
somo items Of telegrapl,ic nows from tho Office
OF tho Ecenng Post is quito correct; but it is not
true that the American Press Association had
anything to do with it, tho matter having beon
arranged botween the managers of tho Mail and
the Post and tho newe furnished by the latter
because tho two papers wero about to be COLI
solidated. AZ tho American Press Association
was thus about to loso it's only papor in this cily,
1t certainly would not DO likely to "atcal" news
for it; while it is to bo supposed that tho Asso-
ciated Proaa would be glad to draw it into tho
fold ly giving 1t tasto OF tile superior quality
Of it's pabnlum: 1t all ovonts tho furllislrt.s Of
news was not dono by or for the benefit OF the
American Press Association, rs the managers of
Tho Posi- and 44aH freely admit, and Mr.. Smith,
the Agent Of tho Assoeiatsa prcss, is now, as lie
informs me, satisfied tl,at TINT Association and
its agent are entirely blameloss III the E.attor.
Tho records Of the telegraph lines by which
the American Association aet,ls itH pews will
show that no limo or word Of the dispatches re-.
coivod by tue Epening Post hayo ovor boon sent
out Of the city to tho American Association.
Another eorionB mistake into Which your
article has fallen ia. In asserting that all employee
81 tho 1smes was engaEed by tho American
press Agent to obtniu ABsocinted Press lsYatcI-
es for him. The gentlemnn Of tho Iines WIZ
employed solely to furnish, tho local nowa, and
II llo ever sent u word OF Associated Press nows
I do not know it. do not believe that l!o did.
