CUBA. Scarcity of Provisions in Puerto Principe— Outrages by Volunteers—Fighting in General Jordan’s Department=Foraging Party Cap- tured—A Decisive Engagement Imminent. WASHINGTON, August 5, 1869. Advices from Cubans to their iriends in this city to ‘the 26th ult, state that General Quesada still has con- trol of communication between the coast and Puerto Principe; that the inhabitants of that city are com- pletely at the mercy of the volunteer soldiery, who are committing every description of outrage in the city and the country adjacent, Itis now‘almost im- Poasible to obtain supplies, and the suffering of the people is represented as very great. Fighting is re- ported at several poinis in General Jordan’s depart- ment, where the Spanish troops have been retnforced by two regiments of volunteers and @ battalion of regulars from Havana, Near Santiago de Cuba the Cubans were attacked by a superior force of Spaniards and at first were driven from their position with some loss; but they were rallied, and, reinforced by troops from General Figueros’ command, regained their position avd compelled the Spanish troops to retire. 1t is reported that a small foraging party of Cu- bans were captured near Remedios and another near Sagua la Grande. The number of Cubans thus cap- tured was eighty, and it is feared they were imme- diately executed. The Cuban troops, it is reported, continue to be free from disease and in excellent spirits, Thecom- manders are moving to take advantage of the pres- ent demoralized condition of the Spanish forces. ‘The letters containing the above information state that in twenty days decisive action will be taken in the Eastern Depaartment, which will give the Cubans control of that portion of the isiaad, MEXICO.

WASHINGTON, August 6, 1869, Failere of Negotiations for the mettlement of the Cuban Difficulty. The State Department up till to-day nad not re- ceived the protest against the proposition to purchase Cuba, said to have been sforwarded by the Cuban Junta from New York. It is already understood im oMicial circies that the Spanish government ts unfriendly to the move- ment, and this of itself would probably put sn end to It; but the fact that Spain refuses to sell, and that the Cubans are unwilling to buy, seems to put this mode of settling the Cuban diMiculty entirely Outgof the question. The Quarrel Among the Washington Radi- cale—Another Blust From the Negro Couu- cllman. Counctiman G. W. Hatton (colored) and Counetl- man James Holmes (white) of the Washington Coun- cil, are out in another long-winded letter in regard to the shabby treatmen: of the former by Mayor Bowen and other members of the Washington municipal delegation on the occasion of the recent ceremontes at Gettysburg. Hatton ts very severe upon Mayor Bowen in this second letter, accusing him of adeliberate intention to tusult the colored race In his (Hatton's) person. In one part Hatton thus al- lndes to the reply of Bowen:— In the second paragraph of their statement they oimes and net on x Oumelves as ‘‘delighted with the trip, the more ao that the principle that a man ah Rot, be degraded because of being biack nad been triumphantly vindicated.” { admit that we did rejoice; and We will continue to rejoice, and lapor too, until the last of this cursed preju- dice on account of color shalt have been forgotten and every man, let him be white or black, or Chase, Bowen or Davis, who would fly the track if permitted when this principle ts at stake stall have been numbered with tho things of the past. 1m another part he uses the following language in regard to Bowen & Co.:— What I charge them with at Gettysburg ts, that not one of them or will they pretend to atate ‘that they said to the proprietor of the hotel, “This man is here, as we are, an invited guest—a memver of the same Board, elected by the same people that elected us, and he shall fare as we fare.” Concern- ing the statement that I asked the Mayor for six dol- lars, Tay that it gan assertion unbecoming to his honor, if, indeed, such as assertion is unbecoming to dignity. I will further state that there was no set time for breakfaat, unless it was the time when Mr, Holmes and myseif were absent at the spring; and ifso the time was set during that absence that we might not know it. As to the Mayor saluting me in the usual manner when he met me in the morn- ing, | admit that he did salute me, but how? His head dropped as though he had been dealt a heavy blow on the back of the neck with an old fashioned battering ram, and believe It was nis intention, judging from his manner and the steps he was making, to leave me standing in the pi The six men who subscribe to the reply to my former letter are very particular in de- scribing the scene between the Mayor aud inyself in ‘the passage and in relating the conversation that occurred then and there, aud call my statement of the same occurrence a “most malignant untruth." According to their own story they were not present and could know nothing of the matter. Hatton winds up his attack thus:— The nanimous gentlemen ask “if | was cruelly treated why I did not complain to them?” | an- swer by saying that thereewas a man at one time who lived in this world and who was very wicked, and after his death 'tis said he went to torment, and, finding things did not suit him precisely, he asked one, “where is the boss ?’’ and he was pointed to the devi at declined applying to him for redress, say- ing, *’tis po use. 1 have tried that fellow several times and he is the devil, no matter where or when Isee him.” And the gentlemen ask why it was not indicated before I left Gettysburg that I had been in- sulted by cages | them? ho had [to complain to, when ail except Mr. Holmes persuaded me to stay according to the arrangements they had made win the proprietor of the hotel, viz., have @ nice room, have access to the parlor, but eat in the kitchen with the cook? Ihave, perhaps, said too much already, but thank God the time 1s not far distant when these men will be called upon to give to their conststuents an account of their statesmauship, and if I suould ltve Twill be able to stand at the builot box and lusten with joy to the sentence that will be passed upon them by the loyal people of our city, namely, “Depart, ye that have betrayed the trust thai we have confided in you, to your everlasting homes of sorgetfulness."” SANDWICH ISLANDS.

Three Fine Races Yesterday—Mitchell the Winner of the Hurdle Race, Bayonet of the Saratoga Cup and Fanny Ludlow of the Dash. Sanatoaa, Angust 5, 1869, Wo had sgother delightful day for racing, the weather bemg One and the track in excelent con- dition, Three races were om the programme—the first a hurdle race, with three starters; the second the Saratoga €up race, for which there were six starters, and a dash of three-quarters of @ mile, for all ages, for a pure, which had seven entries, and all of the horses started in the race. Tne hurdle race was oue of the Muest we ever saw, asall the horses made their leaps with precision, gomg over nigh and safely. The horses that ran wero Mitchell, Lobelia and Ripley. Lobellasvas the favorite against the field at long odda, and her backers. lost largely by her defeat. Ste did not appear in first rate condition, yet sno made about as [ast a race as she ever ran before. Mitchel! won the race, proving himself a most excetient burdier, His first appear- ance over hurdies was at Prospect Park this summer, where he wou @ capital race by beating Lobelia easter than he did yesterday. He carried ten pounds more on this occasion, and made # better race than his previous ove. Ripley, the other horse, had no chance, the weight being too much forhim. Therace was much admired, and the deiight expressed by the ladies as the horses bounded over the timber and brash proves conclusively that this styie of racing will have to be given frequently at every meeting, and that more horses will have to be taught that spe- cialty of racing. ‘The contest for the Saratoga Cup was a most beautiful one, but ome foul play occurred in it that required an investigation by the association. That body of gentlemen soon settled the question under discussion to the satisfaction of the public. Six horses started for the race—Bayonet, Vauxhall, Nel- lle McDonald, Plantaganet, Sleety and Local. The betting was on Uayonet Eee the Held just at the start at long odds, notwithstanding that it was known that Vauxhall ‘had run a trial of two tiles in 3:37. During the race Vauxhall seemed to make no effort to win, laying benind unti} he en- tered the homestretch at the finisa, and when a long way behind made adash and came in second. It seemed plain to the judges that Vauxhall’s jockey had designedly lost the race, and they accordingly gave the race and cup to Bayonet, decided all bets where money Was on Vauxhail nuit and void, and ruled the rider of the horse, John Ford, off the Sara- toga Race Course forever. ‘The association are not through with their investigations, how- ever, as they intend to ascertain whether the own- ets of the horses were cognizant of the affair and articipants in the fraud, aud all that are guilty wul Bewerved in the same war that they have disposed of the jockey Ford. ‘This ts as it should be. The third race was a dash of three-fourths of a mile, with seven starters, comprising Fanny Lua. low, M. H. Sanford, Legatee, Lobeua, Athlone, Biddy Malone and Lizzie Kodgers, M. H. Sanford was the favorite against the ileld. Fanny Ludiow won the race in very good time. The following are the details of wat took plac THR FIRST RACK. This was a burdle race for all axes, two miles over eight hurdies three and a half feet high, welter welgnts; $400 to the wimner, $100 to secund horse, if three or more started. ‘There were three entries, all of which came to the post. These were C. Littie- field’s bay gelding Mitchell, by Mickey .Free, dam by Sovereign, three years old, carrying 126 Ibs.; James Thompson’s bay mare Lobelia, by Bonnie Scotland, dam Capitola, six yeurs old, carrying 154 Ibs, and DW. MeDaniel’s bay horse Ripley, by Jetf Davis, dam Nina, six years old, carrying 157 ibs, Lobelta was the favorne against the fleld at long odds, ‘The hurdies were put up in fine view of the spectators, the iirst being a short distance from the starting stand, the second at the quarter pole, the third near the half-mile pole, and the 1ourth on the homestretch, about midway trom the three-quarter poie to the stand. -'The horses were started very nicely by Mr. Joha Morris, and as they ran at the first hurdle Mitchell went over frst, Lobelia second, Ripley third, all of them giving the lop rail @ rap. Mitchell ran away from the others around the turn, aod was tea lengtis ahead at the second hardle, Lobelia second, Ripley last, three tengths benind, Lobelia put on steam down the backstretch ana closed up some of the daylight to the third burdie, Mitchell being about eight lengths ahead when he weat over it, Lobelia ciosed up further on the lower taro and up the homestretch, Mitcieli being about five lengths ahead at the fourth hurdle, Ripiey tea lengths away. At the fifth hurdle Mitcheli bolted, but jumped the hurdie very cleverly, lusting some ground by the bolt, Lovelm was then ciose upon him. He opened the daylight ou the upper turn and was four lengths ahead at tue sixth hurdie, Lobelia second, fifteen lengths ahead of Riple; , Who Was tiring under the top weight he haa to carrv. Lobelia now made her run for the Jead, but down the backstretch she could not gain an inch cn the young gelding, aud he went over the seventh hurdle gracefully four lengis on Ue lead. As Lobelia jum) tne hurdle she seemed to dwell, and Mitchel! ied another leagth to ais previous advantage. On the lower turn, however, Lobelia again made @ spurt and closed finely, untii at the last hurdle she was within two lengtis of Mitchel. ‘The colt again swerved a trifle, but was forced sitc- ceastully over the hardle, and, coming away under whip and spur, Won tbe race by two ‘engths. Ripley was third, eighty yards behind Lobelia. Time, 4:45.
