THE ERA OF GOOD FEELING.

As il Illustrating the effect of the President 5
conciliatory policy in the South, We reproduce
the FLOWING:
New York, February IS Some weeks ago
the President recai; ca d letter from q reliable
source, stating that the writer was i'll posses
sion of facts capable of ectprooftha, colored
men, citizens of Florida, had been Kidnapped
and transported across the Gulf Of Mexico to
Cuba and sold into slavery. The writer says
members of families of some of the enslaved
citizens had received intelligence from Cuba
from their relatives stating that they were
held in bondage, and the matter was com
inundated to the President for such action in
the promises as might be deemed best calcu-
lated TO vindlcate American dignity in view
of n procedure SO grossly in violation of the
civilization of the times. The contents OF the
letter occasioned much surprise to the Plesi-
dent and with a view of ascertaining the
truth of the statement, he dispatched a conf
dental agent to Cuba, Judge Leonard, Repub
lican member form Louisiana in the House of
Representative. Judge Leonard a few days
ago obtained an indetnate leave of absence
from the House, and left New York for Hav
ana on the Steamship Columbus on Wednes-
day last, carrying with him letter from Pres
ident Hayes letter to the Captain General,
and also one for Senior MantllIa, the Spanish
Minister, addressed to the same officer. 1t is
not doubted that the Captain General will af-
ford him ever faculty for the accomplishment
Of his mission. Another object of the mission
is to ascertain the true condition of the insur-
gents, official accounts and those from insur-
rectionary sources being very contradictory.
While one side represents decline of insur-
rection the other asserts the contrary, and
agents have been here in behalf of the insur-
gents of Cuba with view to the recognition
of their independence by the United States.
Should it be found true that negroes are kid
mapped in Florida or any other Southern
State and conveyed to Cuba and sold into
slavery immediate means will be adopted to
prevent all such future outrages on persons
and violation of international law The OBJ
jects of the mission are not publicly known,
care having been taken to conceal them, but
the above statement is fully confirmed.
