TREE FINE ARTS
A new picture by W. T. itichards has been
placed in EarleS'Eery, which will interest
artists and, we may add, photographers, for
the instnunent is fairly beaten in its own
main. It is a representation of waves break
ing on a precipitous part of the Mount Desert
coast, under a general curtain of chilly rain.
'The way in which the toiling waters'are'an
• alyzed and draWn Is something so superior to
what we know of ,the art of any country,
that it deserves to be called an invention. The
singitlai detail which Mr IliehardS,eV€4l be
fore his second European trip, began to carry.
over from his foliageLwork to the less
easy and stable wave-forms, is here
,brought, <a Point there
iS Surely no use of ever' going further. A
great tmtity or :4•110iti; opt:tildes
have attracted Public admiration, in which
the movement of the water has been praised
for its "feelitigit has indeed been given gen
erally with more "feeling'? than literal demon
stration; the artists 'seem to have half-closed
their'eyeS; and delivered the brush up .ti:.
a
kind of.voluptuous undulation, supposed to be
in sympathy With the Mobile water. Raskin,
we think, has demonstrated somewhere that
,',Wave,drawing'ean only be rightly done bY 'a
sweeping hand, kept in a condition of enthusi
asm and sYmpathy. - This is the 'Method by
which a writing-1/4144er gets the ovals of his
flourishes. Now to say that the hand.to express
the waveonust travel like a wave;; iSinatthnic;
it is like saying that to paint a drunken man
you must be drunk. Richards,by proving that
the effect can be produced in his old analytic
way, hasseally widened the methods of art.
THE ALABAMA CLAIMS
The Famous Despatch of Secretary Sew
ard to Minister Miami.; Acedthpanying
the Claims in 1860.
• The Washington correspondent of the N: 1.
Thaes sayg:
The late Secretary of State was of the
opinion that the agreement of England to pay
on aebitration, was as full a confession of
wrong as she could in all nrobability be ever
induced to make. But in HttiO he was quite as
emphatic as Mr: Stunner in his recent speech,
and in October of that year wrote as fol
lows to Mr. Adams, then Minister to England:.
" When the insurrection began, the United
States believed themselves to hold a position
and prestige equal in consideration. and influ
ence to that of any other nation; and it was
foreseen that foreign intervention in behalf of
the insurgents, 'even to the extent only of re
cognizing them as a- belligerent, mast directly,
and more or less completely; derogate front
the just and habitual influence of the republic.
It was foreseen that, should the insurgents
receive countenance, aid and support in
any degree from Great Britain, the in
surrection might be • ripened under
such influences to a social Warr Which
would involve the life of the nation itself.
The United States did not fail to give - warning,
to Her Majesty's Government that the Ameri
can people could not be 6. = peeted to submit
without resistance to the endurance of any of
these great evils, through the means of any
[lure of Gfeatßritain to - preserve the estate •
I "-bed relations . of peace, amity and good"
1 n , ighborhood with - the United States. The
earnest remontarances thus •inadn I . seent to the
United States to have 'failed to 'receive just
and adequate consideration. While as yet
the civil war was undeveloped and
the insurgents were without any recognized
military force or a treasury, and long before
they pretended to have a flag or to Rut either
an armed,ship or even a merchant vessel tipon
the sea, Her Majesty's Government, acting
precipitateld, as we have always complained; "
\
proclaimed the insurgents a belligerent power, i
and conceded to them the advantages and I
privileges Of that character, and this raised
them,in reward to the prosecution of an unlaw
ful armed insurrection, to an equality with the
United States. This Government has not denied
that it was within the sovereign authority of
Great Britain to assume this attitude. But, on
the other haisLit insisted in the beginning;and
has continually insisted, thatthe assumption of
that attitude unnecessarily and prematurely,
would Is, an injurious proceeding, for which
Great Britain would immediately come under
a full responsibility to justify it, or to render
redress and indemnity. The United Slates re
main of the opinion that-the proelamation,re
terred to has not been justified on any ground
of either necessity or moral right, and that,
therefore, it was a wrongful intervention, a
departure front the obligations of existing
treaties, and without sanction of the law of
nations. Upon a Candid review of the.history of
the rebellion, it is believed that Great Britain
will not deny that a very large number of the
Queen's subjects combined themselves and
operated as active allies 'with.the insurgents,
aided them-with supplies, arms, munitions,
inert and many ships of war.. The ehief reply
which her Majesty s Gokernment has made to
this complaint has been that they apprehended
inconveniences from being involved in the
contest.'unloss they should drjelare themselves
neutrab;; and thrther, that they did in fact put
fOrth all the ellbrts to" prevent aggressions by
British ' subjects which the • laws of Grbat
Britain permitted."
This was the celebrated despatch which at:-
eompanied the list of our claims against Great
Britain, and which, according to the informa
tion in the knowledge of Mr. Seward, - was so
sedulously kept from the English pill lie, and
even from Parliament, till concealment was
no longer possible

Commanding General of the following : Hay

Bay of Nipe, I ordered, the valiant Captain
Don Aw'nstin Moro y Viejo, with one hun
dred and twenty -men of thin garrison, to sally
forth and give them a dieisive whipping. They
iiid miUlt - the enemy in possession of three
houses, and attacked them with the bayonet,
driving them from the first house, and
killing sixty of them with the cold
steel (a nnhillo), taking seven pieces of
artillery, three flags, embroidered by the ladies
of Havana, some needle guns and other effects.
The cowardly enemy, confiding in his numeri
cal superiority, resisted at the other two,
points for over four hours, keeping up a lively
fire on our troops, whose ammunition now
riiviier - out, retired in the, greatest order, with

Cuba, 113th May, 180.
Kikeriki! kikeriki ! the Spanish rooster has
crowed officially. But now to give the addi
tional news as published by the journals, and
then to print the truth and expose_the • shame
less official bombast The PrenSli says :
"On the night of the 16th to the 17. th inst.,
from 400 to 450 men, with eight pieces of artil
lery, of which mimber they mounted six,
landed at Ramon. The Spanish steamer
Guantanamo; from Cuba, for. Mayari, arrived
there the day after the , landing '• had been
eil'ected, and left immediately on learning
what had happened to advise the au
thorities • and cruisers. While going
out she met the steamer Marsella, which hail
been fired on thrice by the insurgents, the
shots causing some damage to the and
rigging. The War steamer then fired in the
bushes on shore, although no rebels could be
seen. The garrison of Mayari, 120 men, learn
ing what had taken place, sallied fOrth iu
search of the enemy, and had to make a detour
Of five leagues by a forced march. Hardly had
they caught sight of the landing party, when,
at the sound of the cornet, they rushed upon
the rebels with the bayonet and captured six
guns, which they turned and used against
those who had been tiring on them before. .
"The flag which the hisurgents had flying
over the battery bore the inscription, To the
valiant liberating riflemen of Cuba.' It was
captured. If some other lady embroiderer has
to present a flag to sonic other liberators, let
her take care that they be leSs swift-footed
than those at 3fayar7, •
"On the 20th inst. the steamer Guantanamo
carried 120 men to Mayad, and' the Marsella,
which had gone to Gibarra, also returned witli
troops, together with. further reinforcements
brought by the Men-of-war Africa, Andalura
and *Vasco Nmie:6; The Pabellon, of (lien=
fuegos, adds, that the inscription on the
.cap
tured flag states that it was presented to the
Riflemen of Liberty by Mrs. Emilia Casanova
de Villaviurde, of 14ew York."
These were the official and semi-official fie

• GlasgoW, has not yet:lll3 . od, as' reported' on
the 19th of May but is still Unheard - from
Considerable anxiety Is felt 'concerning her
safety." • •
The steamship United Kingdom, which, by
this extraordinarily prolonged passage, should
she arrive,in Europe, firesentS a subject of
anxiety an. alarm to very many persons, Was
built in Gieenock, Scotland, in the Year 1857.
She is an 'iron vessel of 1,064 tons register and
rated as All at Lloyd's. • -She has two decks, -a
draught of sixteen ' feet and iron fastenings.
She is 2i15 feet in length,.32 feet in breadth
and 'A) feet • in depth, bark rigged,
with tivelron bulkheads and good se
curity against tire. She was last surveyed in
New York in 1869 and belonged to the Anchor
line fleet' of steamers,' - trading between that \
port and Glasgow. Messrs. liondersoW
Brothers ; of GlaSgovr, • are the owners and
consignees,
and the vessel was on- a voyage
from .New York to Glasgow with merchandise
and passengers. The United Kingdom sailed
from New York on the 17th of April, under
the command of Captain Steinhouse. Though
the steamer is forty-five daYs out flint! New

up hopes of her safety •
A. JOHNS O N ON THE STUMP.
He Spiti His Venom on Grant.
, .
The late Andrew Johnson spoke at ,Clarks
ville; Tenn., the other day, and after the cus
tornarY autobiographical sketch he said:
"The real father of his, country was for the
maintenance of:the principles and the good of
his country, while the second Washington was
shrewdly looking out .for himself:" He con
chided by saying: "I think the Radical party
are disintegrating and crumbling away. .11 am
opposed to making a soft bed for them to re
cline on in death. The offices are not enough,
for all, money is getting scarce,- and things
lying around loose have, all been picked up.
Now they are filled with dissensions and dis
.satisfactions, and are lighting for the little
residuum of plunder.. Our duty is to give it to
them now, to ; press home upon them, and
hasten their death, by Adherence, by bold,
manly courage; adherence to the essential
principles of true republican Government.
"They call Granta second Washington. Let
us see hoW he , merits this mune: In his first
inaugural, Washington said 'The magnitude
and difficulty of the trust to which the voice of
my countrymen have Called me, bring suffi
cient cares to awaken in'the wisest and most
experienced citizen a distrust of his powers to
carry on the great and responsible duties, and
to doubt his qualifications for so grand and
great a trust.' In his first inaugural Grant
said : 'The responsibilities of my position are
j,-ery. great; but r :assume them without fear'
There is the first contrast—the diffidence and '
the dignity of one, and the arrogant self-suffi
ciency of the other."
THE INDIAN TROUBLES.
Fatal Consequences of a Blunder.
The Washington correspondent of the New
York Herald Says:
A gentleman Just from the Indbm country
attributes the late Indian outrageS in the
neighborhood of Fort Hays to the removal of
the Indian prisoners taken- on the Washita
and kept at Camp Supply during the winter,
and removed during the early spring to Fort
Hays, i n Kansas, 300 miles from the place of
capture, on the old Smoky Hill route, the
scene of all the Indian difficulties during
the last four years. The removal of
these Indian prisoners induced their
friends to follow with the hope of rescuing
them; and hence the late massacres of whites
in that vicinity. It will be remembered it was
at this place where the recent mutiny oc
curred; and resulted in the ileath of three
prisonerS and the wounding of a number of
I. 7 nited states soldiers. This fracas was brought
about by the officer mistaking an individual
in camp for Dutch was then and now
in Washington.
