SPAIN. ~
Sept., lb.—Evening. —Two
Spanish irott•clad frigates have been or•
dered by the Government to proceed to
Cuba with troops. Three thousand men
have already sailed for the island. and
Beveu thousand more will leave Spain for
the same destination during the present
s 'week.
•,
LONDON, September 15.—1 t is known
here to-day that Major General Sickles,
United States Minister at Madrid, trims
milted to the Spanish Cabinet an official
note protesting, in behalf of the Amed-
can people and the Government ,of the
United States, against the outrages re
cently committed on American citizens
in Cuba, insinuating at the same time to
the Minister that belligerent rights
would soon be accorded to the Cubans
by the government in WashingtOn
should Spain persist in her barbaritiesiw
the it•land, audio her refusal of the terms
' of a compromise with the people. The
members of the opposition to the Ser
rano Overriment assailed the Sickles
dispatch With, the ebject of embarrassing
the Regency, - as 'well as to prevent; if
Ipossible„ any arrangements with the
.Bxecutivein 'ffashington. • ,'
Telegrams troin Spain, addreisged to
and en route for the New York Ilerald,
relative to Cuban affairs; were stopped
at Madrid on Monday, .13th• inst., by or
der of the Government.
A. statement which- has been pretty
extensivelycircniated here, to the effect
that England, France and Austria will
coalesce, with the intention of sustaining
the rights of Spain in Cuba, is denied.
General Prim has telegraphed to. the
Government from Parts to use all dilli-
Fence•in sending troops tofflaba. •
Lextox, September • 16.—The Timm
bas an editorial to.dar on the Sickles
note to the Spanish Government on the
Vahan question, wherein it says: It was
#oterally, believed that President Grant
would not interfere or allow interference
IA the Cuban question until Congress
could vote upon ' it. —IS he less resolute
that formerly, or has a pressure forced
bim to sanction the demands upon Spain
for the abandernment of Cribs, There is
z doubt that. the alternative offered
Spam is the abandonment' of the Is
land er Americrui, recognition of-, the
insurgents. The probabilities are that
we are- on .the eve of serious
events. The struggle will be hope
less'
so far as Spain is concerned.
But the, Government cannot resist - the
impulses of the people. The flame ,of
Spanish pride Is fast kindling, and the.
tioverriment in striving to check it will
be extinguished. From the !float tran
quil provinces of Spain come offers of
men and arms, in order that the regular
troops may go to Cuba. The aggressive
- policy of the United States cannot be
justified by the attltudeof Spain toward ,
Cuba. It is not a question of slavery, for
the abolition of slavery has already been
decided upon. ,It is not a determina
tion of Spain to resist the demands of
Cuba, for negotiations have been open
ed to allow the, severance of the
Island. Setting . aside the question
whether the means to set Culla free are
fair to Spain, it is dcnibtrul if a war of
races might not ensue. If the insurrec.
don is not mixtingiiished before the ces
sion of the Island under the present crit
ical circumstances, the Cones, on reas•
sembling will have to turn, their whole,
thoughts and attention to the difficulties
and dangers of Cuba.

CHICAGO, Sept. le.—ln the Episcopal
Diocesean Convention this Morning the
Committee on Legislation, to whom was
referred the revision of canon 20, unani
mously recommend the adoption of the
following preamble and resolution
WHEREAS, An ., Ecclesiastical Court
was recently organised' in' thin diocese
under the lower the church in pursuance
of the Droyislonsof canon ID of the diocese
for the trial of a presbyter present.
ed for trial ; and whereas, the
proceedings of ,said gout-were, enjoined
by Civil Court; and the CoriVention hav
ing duly considered the official acts of
the Bishop, and the proceedings, order
ings and decisions, as published, of the
said Ecclesiastical Court,, in said' ease,
and also the published opinion of the
lion. Murray Moira:tan, respecting the
proceedings in such case, do resolve as
follows:
First—That the acts and proceedings
of the Bishop in - said case were in ac
cordance with the law and usage of this
church.
Second—Taft said Ecclesiastical. Court
was lawfulf3r and properly organised un
der said canon XX, and all its rulings
and decisions were substantially correct
and were In accordance with the usages,
rules and canon§ of thts,Churott, and as
we believe were .wrongfully `interfered
with by . the civil count.
The report of the Committee was de
bated at length, and after, attempts to re
fer it to various commiities,the Rev. Dr.
Rylance offered the following substitute:
Resolved, That this Convention, hav
ing no doubt as to the waning and pro
vision of certain eel:Loris called in ques
tion in' the case of a clergyman in this
diocese, rettlssia to take any tetioh in the
matter,lest it sholci seem open to the
imputation, in . We' popular mind, that
they thus sought to preJadice the
course of We proceedings now pending.
This ,CotiveMion claims the right to
interpret its own canons at any time
when it may•,seem expedient to do so;
but siinplty deem Sic inexpedient to do so'
at this juncture, lest their action should
seem to be celled forth by motives of
which its members would not even be'
suspected.
Ater extended remarks On thesubjecri
by Rev. Dr. Wallace, Rev. Dr. Pierce, of '
Springfield, offered the following as a sub
stitute for the whole: , -
WomitEas, canon twenty having been
variously constructed, this Convention
declare that the meaninlit of the portions
in dispute bee relieve: _
First—Section two of canon twenty, of
the diocese of Illinois, is mandatory, not
restrictive Indio force, and,iicep nee ex
clude the Bishop _from Instituting an
inquiry into the conduct of any minister,
whenever he shall -think it necessaryto
do so.
Second -Section two of said canon does
'not provide for or allow any challenge
of members of the Court, save in so far
as the right to select from the right pres
bytery named by the Bishop, may be of
the nature of a challenge. -
Third—Section eight of the said canon,
does ,not provide for another citation
than that mentioned in section four, but
is designed to 'secure to the , accus ed at
least twenty days to prepare for trial, by
'ensuring to hiln that period of time over
and above the time required to travel to
the place of trial.
Alter a long debate, participated in
by the Bishop, Rev. Drs. Pierce, Ryland
and others, the substitute of Dr. Pierce
was adopted with but four dissenting
votes. .
