Without taking actual pesierulon, this action has been trued on the complaint of the Peruvian Minister, Colonel Preyre, who alleges that the gunbolts will release other Spanish vessel, now on guard on the coaat of Cuba, and wtdcla will thus bee enabled to proceed against Peru. This technical custody was sufficient So long es the boatel were unfinished, but eleten of them are now ready to be turned over to the Spanish authorities. The demand of the Spanish Minister for their release is daily expected, sad the clue' will then without doubt be taken Into the Courts for regular proceedings under the Neu trality act. Peru will then have an opportunity to make her complaint good If she fails to do so, the release of the vessels will probably follow. The Cuban question cannot affect it in one way or the.other, for Cuba having no stutta, Is not known In the matter. This, I believe, is the determination of the government, and there seems to be no other mode of procedure. To be detained on legal grounds the vessels meat ba lawfully con demned in regular courts of proceedings under the Neutrality sett; and, however the result may affect the Cuban-cause, the country may look to ilea nothing done that doesnot comport strictly with the law.
