SPANISH AFFAIRS.

A dispatch from Havana, says: "The
report that Captain General Weyler has
resigned because of the action of the
home government in the case of the
Competitor filibusters is true, but it is
not accepted with confidence by the
public here. 1t is understood that the
government refused to accept the resig-
nation, and ordered General Weyler to
remain at his post under the present
circumstances"
United States Minister Taylor had 8
conference with the Spanish premier,
Senior Canovas del Castillo, in Madrid
yesterday in reference to the sentence
of death imposed by the court-martial
at Havana on the Americans who were
captured on the filibustering schooner
Competitor. The United States govern.
ment is reported to have presented to
the Spanish government fresh claims
for heavy indemnities through losses on
sugar plantations belonging to Ameri-
cans and burned by the insurgents.
Captain General Weyler has complain
ed to the Spanish government that he
is hampered by the United States in
war against the insurgents.
The Cortes reassembled at Madrid
yesterday. The speech from the throne
declares that Spain has fulfilled beyond
measure the promises she made to the
Cubans after the first rebellion. The
relations with foreign powers, the
speech says, are excellent. The correct
and friendly attitude of the South and
CentraD American republics in the
presence of the Cuba rebellion, it
says, serves to prove that each day de-
velops still more the interests binding
them to Spain. In the United States,
despite the efforts Of public opinion in
the contrary direction, the President
and his government have not separated
themselves from the line of conduct
