Wreak! With Cuba. - The detention o the steamer -Black War; tior at Havana is likely to lead, to trouble: She had cleared f oil Mobile to.

She ha. no freight for Havana and \., was entered , as in ballast, according to a form said to have been prescribed by the captain of the Port on th- occasion of the ship's first visit. in August,l z 52: To the surprise of the officers of the rev • nue atithorities on this oc casion declared t e maniti,t, seized the ship, declared her ca : o.confiscated, and at last dates it' , was ir? °Ursa of- discharge by Abe • 'Spanish officers.

The eager vehemence with Which they ass filed that, bill when it ,:rested upon :the ex- aSilangtiao:of the Comprotnisc of 186,0, and I before the clause was inserted declaring the I gissouii Conspromise inorrative and void, showed eonelusively their idetermination to resist any measure which Promised (6 place tlieslavery question beyond the reach of fu tune !disturbance.

I.1r)on its intr;duction the .abolitionists took the!, lead in opposition te. the bill. :;They prepared the arguments on W;hich it was to be attacked, and sent them broadcast over the country, appealing earnest and pa&siodately to all the feelings and cons id era ti n ds which proinised to aid in pro-1 diming popular exeitemerit. It becathe nee *my for the friends - of the bill to meet and counteract the opposition, and in executing this purpose,Ahey found emsely.es engaged in l a contest ;in which abOlitjoniits were their - I prominent antagonists, and the nrgumentA fur mshed by abblitionists were to, be answered. In this way the issue on the bill Wris'Arit made up } between its friends onO the one side, and the abolitionists as its leading ofiponents on the other. To a very coisiderable extent, the issue has retained this coniplexiou ;the dis edSsion to NN hid), it has giyea rise, although it cannot with propriety be said that 411 who oppose the bill are abolitiobists. Tbeviolence and industry with which their prominent men hate kept up the warfare have enabled them le 'retain thd,front rank iii the opposition, and haVe catzsedthe opponents of the bill to stand ip he background. The very fact. that the abolition. enemies have oCcupied,this premi neat position in- the conte s t has made it nee ensary for the advocafes of, the measure to di rect their blews at them add at the arguments. We have never been so far misled, however, as to regardlevery man as' an abolitionist who could not reponcile it to his convictionsof du ! tr' to suppoit the hill. That any democrat or whig shotild be coerced by his convictions tb withhohthis approval !from the measure, 'and thereby ;find himself Co-operating in the Opposition with abolitionists, :his been: one filature in the controversy • which We have *well regretted. We are aware that there 'are democrats withholding their suppOrl, who stood side by side with us ; in 1848 inadvoea ting the principle...of non-intervention avowed Fly; our candidate for the presideticy, and who have ever been zealous supporters of the Com pemise of 1850, which !have secognised and enacted that:principal. We are aware that there are other democrats Who °Ejected to the Comprotniselof 1850 whet it *a pasised, but 14110 lave since faithfully Acquiesced it,who are not prep ired to sustaid the.
