Cnnodo said, in reply, that the publica
tion Jiad been mode in a foreign country,
and that, however flagrant the Ihlsc-hood,
he had no tnapns of punishing it. The
consul persisted that it was not only in
foreign countries that the Spanish papers
took such liberties. His excellency had
only to turn to the JDiaro dc la Marina,
to find similar sltmders. But while he,
,(lhe consul,) despised this insolent lan
guage, proper only to the corrupt and in
famous lips that uttered it, he could not but
grieve to see the slave trade flourish with
unabated success; and that slaves daily
Jand on the island.
“It is not so, Senor Consul, it is not
.so;” answered Cancdo, “the trade is con- 1
atantly decreasing, not so much on uc
,count of the vast expense your govern
ment is at in sustaining fleets to repress it,
for I alone am sufficient to insure that not!

-consul, “thut two days ago twele hundred

■». ,
“As your excellency doubls it,” said
the consul, beckoning to two of the ne
groes who waited at the foot of the stairs,
.“here are two of the Africans landed
among the rest.”
Gen. Canedo affected to be overwhelm
ed with surprise, and said he should-bave
.-to take to hanging and killing to put a stop
to these outrages. Tfic consul infornjod
him. how many days the vessel had spent
tile voyage; who the owners were,
their relative shares and their residences ;

sold, and where they might be found : not I
omitting to mention the massacre of 200 j
en voyage, and then demanded that a com- 1
mission should at onco be named, who
should make summary inquiry, and pun
ish the offenders with all the rigor of the
law.
In consequence of this interview the
Brigadier Eorales Rada, was sent to this
city by the Captain-General, ns a commis
sioner to examine the cose. He forthwith
caused the several “urmadores,’' or own
ers of the ship to be urrested. Their
names are: Dr. Aguabella ; Antonio Mux
un, an attorney, who recently married the
widow of Vega v Caceres, und so became
a party interested; Arnmn.be., an iron foun
der; N. Aguirre, a merchant; Bartolome
Caranas, an apothecary ; und Don Fran
cisco Vinogerns, brother of the alcalde,
and the only creole implicated. Each oi l
’‘these was interested to the extent of $l2,- j
000, and was held to bail, notwithstanding!
the law prohibits boil in criminal cm
.es, to answer the charge.
Don Jos Bare, another partner, succee

nation brought out the atrocity of the af
fair in- the broadest light. Capo directed!

A WILD 31 AN OF THE WOODS.— A few
weeks since was published a full account
of the capture of a wild man that had been
found in a cave near the Muscle Shoals.

was Gorin;;. The account attracted the
attention of .Mr. Gorin;', the fatner of the
poor outcast, u ho resides in Knox county,
dust renness e. Thu old gentleman read
the article with pain and mortification, for
he felt sure Irom the description that it
was really his son, who hud been absent
for nearly seven years, and when last
heard from was in the vicinity, where ho
wus caught. From the description, as well
as from information received through a
lettel from our townsman, Mr, J. J. Craig,
the old man was satisfied that it wus his
son, and although poor, (eeble, and bent
beneath the weight of sixty years, he set
out for the purpose oi fmdingand reclaim

the cause which induced him to withdraw

naturally melancholy and retiring, had
concluded to shut himself out from the
