Fnoult to the American Mimster—Apology De- manded from the Spanish Governmeut—The Ne- gotiations for Cuba—The Insurrections, §¢. §c. ‘We have had a great sensation excited here to- day, by an outrage offered to our flag and the famuy of our Minister, General Saunders ; the eoneequence of which has been, that he has sent a spirited note to the government, demanding in- stant apology and reparation. The circumstances were these. The General’s lady and two daughters were leaving the door of the embassy, ist their carnage, at 2 o’clock this afternoon, to make a visit. Sud_ denly, to their utter surprise and affright, they saw a body of gens d’armes approach the carriage, seize the horges, and surround them. A police otlicer un- der whose command this troop was, presented him- self at the door of the carriage, and demanded whether a servant named Fernando were there. This very Fernando was in the act of closing the door of the carriage at the moment; and conscious that the demand was not likely to be for any agree- able purpose, made a single bound, by which he | succeeded in projecting his body under the port cochere of the embassy ; a second saltation of the same klnd threw him upon the stairs—after which he vanished. ‘Ths ladies descended from the car- nege. Acrowd collected around, and all was soon confusion and fright. While this was going on, the General himself came down, and demanded the cause of the row. The police offizer informed him that he had a warrant against his servant, whom he came to arrest, and whom he was de- termined to take away with him. The General replied that he was not accustomed to recei' messages from the government through the police, and asked what offence his servant had com: mitted. This produced an explanation to the effect that, some time before, his servant been drawn for the army, but had procured a su! stitute. This substitute had, «it appeared, been shot in Catalonia, and Fernando was now called on by the authorities to replace him. To this the General replied by peremptorily refusing to sur- render his servant; whereupon, the police officer declared that he should be under the disagreeable necessity of ordering the gendarmes to enter the embassy by force, and extract Fernando from it. The general, who is a tall, dignified looking per- son, fad his American blood heated by this obser- vation, and replied by declaring that he would resist such an outrage, and defied the police. In fact, he told them that they would proceed at their peril. After this warning, the police of- ficer thought better of it, and withdrew. The General immediately retired to his cabinet, and penned a note to M. Pidal, demanding in- stant apology and reparation for the outrage committed against him, refusing peremtorily to surrender his servant, and threatening in case of the non-compliance of the government, that he would strike his flag, retire from Spain, and send the American squadron in the Mediterranean to | Barcelona, to ask an explanation. T have nothim® further of any importance, on the negotiation for the purchase of Cuba. 1 doubt whether General Saunders has made much pro- | gress in the business. He 1s not well qualified for such a task. | learned B carernny that one of the embassy has written a full statement of the matter to the Hon. John M. Botts, of Virgimia, with a view of bringing the purchase of Cuba before Con- gress, and to procure the aid of popular opinion in the negotiation. I apprehend a strong opposition from the Enghsh government, and Spain may be fearful of acting, without strong manifestations on the part of the United States. General Saunders and his two daughters were at Cadiz on the 20th inst. A double insurrectionary movement ts expected to break out, ina few days, in the northern pro- vances, by the Carlists and the Progressistas—the former under General Elio, and the latter under General Iriarte. ed te sveceed, for want of funds.

Tue Steamer Crgscent City, on her outward pt sage henee to New Orleans, did not escape the tre- mendous gales in which every vessel, then on the coast: suffered damage, and many, not able to withstand the violence of the blows, were entirely lost. It would seem, by the annexed extract ofa letter from a pas- senger, that the main cause of her delay, and the greatest difficulty encountered, was the want of coal, which forced Captain Stoddard to use for fuel every ‘uoveable article, bulk head, and spars, on board. The vessel withstood the storm nobly, having to force her They are neither of them expect- | way through head winds, amounting in violence to | hurricanes, from the moment she left the city until reaching the Belize, with barely a moments cessation, ‘and without any serious damage to hull or engine, She arrived on the 15th, and sailed on her return on the 19th, which 1s sufficient evidence of her ability and power to brave all weather. Brxize, Saturday morning, Oct. 14, 1848. 1 take the earliest opportunity of informing you of any safe arrival here, knowing that Ped must be getting anxious about the ship Crescent City, as she is now several days behind her time. If you remember, we commenced our passage in @ gale, on the 3d instant, which continu the Belize, and gg been out of New York but a few hours before the passen| the gales we had to stem. nen in lat, 28 41 12, we found ourselves ae time; consequently it was Monday, 4 o'clock, P. M., before we got to Havana. While there, | was informed that many of the fashion. able families kept out of town to avoid danger, on count of the “hurricane expected on the 11th; b sure enough, as icted, it came upon us the day after we left, midway between that port and New Orleans, in the Gulf of Mexico; commencing bleh but gradually increasing,from » gale to a hurricane, in which the vessel had to lay to about twenty-four hours, during which time the proudest and bravest heart was bowed down in silent sorrow, expecting every coming moment to be their last. I was up and about the whele of the night of the 11th and morning ‘of the 12th, and talked with pilots and sea captains, who numbered together at least a dozen, as passen- gers on board, but none had ever witmessed so terrible a blow, or seen so much danger. If the slightest acci- dent had occurred to the haw the consequences would have been terrible, for it took all the steaming ‘ower to keep the ship's head to the wind and sea. When in the trough of the ses, and mounting the im: menee billows, the water poured over the bows and inty the cabin, down the stairway, and through the decks into the state roome, then into the engine and fire rcoms. Then it was that I gave up, and settled my accounts, for the secend time in my life. Tcslmly placed a chair between the table and fore mast, in the cabin, 60 a8 not to be injured by loose furniture roll- ing about, expecting, every rea that struck her, she would either go to pieces, or fill. Many a silent prayer was cffered to God to appease the wind, for that only saved ue. Another shock, such as I experienced while sitting there, I believe would re severed her. It would seem as yy it was being tcied how much she could stand, and the finishing stroke withheld. It however began to subside at noon, and gradual calmed down on the night of the 12th we had fresh cause for alarm. We spoke a vessel boun: for Havana, thi Mobile immediately after the hur- rieane, running fast, with a falr wind, whose captain informed us that we were in lat. 25 15, about 150 miles from the Belize, then the nearest port, and oul, al enough to last a few bours, with a head wind.

Virgin ‘The Old Dominion has been generally conceded to Cags and Butler, in calculations of the ensuing Presi_ dential election, principally on the ground that the State has never swerved from her fidelity to the demo. cratic party.

In 1840, Mr. Ritchie, of the Richmond Enquirer, was very much alarmed fora while at the appearance of things in favor of Harrison, and the probability of the whigs baving carried the State for “ old Tip,” but the democratic counties of Western Virginia came in Electorai .. Van Buren. unexpectedly in favor of Van Buren, and when the | returns showed aclear majority of 1,392 for Van Buren; over Harrison, Mr. Ritchie exclaimed “the citadel is eafe’’—“the Old Dominion true to the democracy,” kc. &e ; arid forthwith he commenced the campaign for the | succession to Harrison, by hunting up the “resolutions cf ninety-eight,” and republishing them in the En- quirer. Mr, Ritchie aleo succeeded, in 1844, in rallying the democracy against Mr. Clay, so that the State gave | the heavy majority against him of 5,893. The whigs | of Richmond and “the slashes” straightway wentinto | mourning for the defeat of their favorite, “Harry of the West,” and the ladies of Virginia resolved to erect a monument to his memory. Since then, the Virginia whigs bave been very cautious as to boasting, and have in fact, been as mild as lambs, in their polities, They have, however, carried the State, by electing a majo- rity of the Legislature, or of the lower House, once at least since 1844—as they had frequently done before — and with the exception of the Hon. Mr. Botts, anda few other ultra whigs, they took early ground, like sensible politicians in favor of Gen, Taylor, as the most available candidate for the Presidency. What hopes the whigs of Virginia may have as to carrying the State for ‘old Zach” we know not, although the whig papers of the State hold out hopes for him; but we have prepared the following tables, showing the votes in each county in Eastern and Western Virginia at the Presidential election in 1844, and at the last Con- gressional election in 1847:— Paxsipent, 1844. ties im 1844, 5,941 Whig gaio.. 2604 on tien marked thus the: | Contre i IB phase | receive 19,000, and Taylor 3,0 TOTAL VOTE OF THE STATR, VIZ:— ——1844,——, Polk.

Usion Course, L. 1.—Trortinc Marcu.—The ad- mirers of trotting had capital day’s sport on Monday last. Two spirited contests took place—one a match for $1,800, three mile heats, to wagons, (wagon and drive™ to weigh 350 pounds,) between b. g. Americus, and bl. h. Black Hawk; and a contest of mile heats, best three in five, in harness, for a purse—which brought to the post three well known trotters, viz.: s.m. JennY Lind, b. m. Philadelphia, and b. g. Passenger. The match between Americus and Black Hawk has produced more speculation on the result, from the} time of making the engagement to the decision, than any trotting match this season; and, until the completion of the first heat, the black horse was the favorite at long odds—100 to 70, 100 to 60, and 100 to 60 being offered and taken in ‘stack’ up. At the end of the first heat, however, (Americus having won it,) he became the favorite, at 100 to 40; but at the end of the second heat, financial matters changed again, and Blaek Hawk assumed his original position in the minds of his backers, The track was in most beautiful ord smooth as the floor of a ball room— the atmosphere was much in favor of the horses. The attendance was quite respectable, and everything passed off with perfect decorum, During the the races, Dr, Morrill, in his balloon, passes course, taking a south- easterly directio: He was in view for more than half an hour, and he appeared to descend somewhere in the neighborhood of Wamaica. The sight was beautiful; andas there was at that hour of the afternoon very little wind, the balloon, for minutes together, seemed “stationary in the heavens, Dr, Morrill threw out part of his ballast, as he glided over the hills on the north of the course, and took » higher flight, which, however, he need not have done, as there was little danger of his stumping his toes against the tree-tops—the al- titude of tho balloon, the time, being about half a mile above the highest peak. But in speaking cf the wronaut, we are neglecting the trot. t Heat—Black Hawk won the choise of track and as a matter of course, his driver choss the inside At the third attempt, a start was effected, and they went off nicely together, at a moderate rate, The black led to the quarter pole, two lengths. in 42 seconds. and was about the same distance in front at the hall, in 1:25, Americus went up and chailenged him on the lower turn, and they swung om the home stretch head to head.

Respectfully, €. MORRILL, M.D New Yorx, Oct. 24, 1848. Law Intelligence, Svrenion Court, Oct, 23—Before Judge Vander- Be —John A, Voisin §& Co vs. Smith § Henderson.— was an action to reeover $2 800, the amount of two promisory notes given for a bill of goods to plaintiffs, lt appeared the defendants, Smith & Henderson, were extensive dry goods merchants in 1846, and failed on the 16th of April. Im the same year, they lars to their creditors, advising them that, in cons quence of the failure of the house of Smith & Black- wood, in St. Louis, for whom they were largely in ad- vance, they would be obliged to suspend payment. On the 16th of May following, they addressed another let- ter to their creditors, stating that the house of Shields, Blood = Co.. for whom they were also largely in ad- vance, had stopped payment, offering to pay fifty centa on the dollar, and also enclosing a statement of their peur i which it appeared that their debts amount- ed to $25 ed to $112 079, exclusive ofa large amount of bad debts, | and other unavailable property. In this statement, the debts due by the two firms of Smith & Backwood, and Shields & Co, were returned as unuvailable,— A committee of the creditors was appointed to investigate the affairs of defendants, and they recommended that their proporal should be accepted, which recommendation was afterwards carried into effect. The plaintifte now, by their counrel, allege that | at the time the letter. or circular, ef the 16th of April, | was written, John C, Henderson, one of the defend: | ants was in St. Louie, and had, by virtue of legal pro- | cess, seized on ali the stock of the house of Smith & | Blackwood, sold the same by public auction, and put | the proceeds in his pocket, and that, as regards that firm, all they lost was about $1000. In relation to the | firm of Shieide, Blood & Co., the plaintiffs further al- | lege that they returned them as debtors for much more than they owed; and that for the sum they really did owe, they, the plaintiffs, had received adequate re- curity, The plaintiffs’ counsel insists that upon this state of facts, if they should be proved, the agreement to take fifty cents on the dollar is invalid, and plain- tiffs are entitled to recover the full amount of their demand. Adjourned. John B. Vail vs Joseph Bishop, et al.—This was an action on acheck for $325, drawn on the Dry Dock Bank by defendante, and given to apersonof ths name of Alexander, who passed it to plaintiffs and recovered | the amount. The defence set up was, that it was | given@s an accommodation check, and that no consi- | deration,was given to defendants. It was attempted to be shown that plaintifi’s had knowledge of that fact. Another defence was alro set up, namely, that three bills were given to plaintiffs agent for a debt of $525, which included the amount of the check, and that a receipt was given in which it was stated that the check was not to be used until the bills matured; that if they were paid, it was then to be given up; and that suit was brought before the bills matured. It was, therefore, contended—Grst, that the plaintiff having notice of the check being an accommodation check. he cannot recover; and, tecondly, that the parties having entered into @ new agreement, accepted bills and given a re- ceipt, discharged defendants from all liability.

Verdict accordingly for plaintiff for $114 and interest. M Count—Before Judge Smith.—Kausish vv. Leavitt—This was an action to recover $75, the amount of a promissory note. The plaintiff is a che. mist, and the defendant a dentist. The former entered into a contract with the latter, to manufacture an enamel for the teeth, of » particular quality, for which he was to receive $100. He received $25 in cash, and the note in suit for the balance, After six months | experiment by himeeif and his aesistants, he finished the article and deilvered it to the defendant. When the note became due, he see for the payment; the | defendant declined, alleging that the article was not | of the description agreed for,and that he was not bound to pay On the other side, the plaintiff alleged there was no condition in the agreemont binding him to deliver am article of a particular quality. The evi- dence on both sides wag contradictory; the jury, ever, rendered @ verdict for the plaintiff, for the amount claimed.

It appeared, in evidence, that Lucy and her friend Martina Rollins, both lived at service at a house in Greene street, Jacob called it # “gal house,” and as her husband wanted to seo her occasionally. he used to call there for that purpose, On the night of the areault, he called there and asked her to go home with him. ‘She did not like to go, but finally acceded to his request, and, accompanied by her friend, went to her husband's rooms, when he ungallantly shut the door in the face of the friend, and began at once to inflicta personal chastisement on his better half, for the offence above alluded to.
