THE FRARFUL CASTIGATION OF THE HON, CHARLES SUMNER, Blow for Free Cnba—Why the Navy Yard Workmon were Discharged. Wasuixatox, Feb. 2.—In the Sena passage of the Currency bill, Mr. Hows (Rep., Wis.) spoke In support of the bill recently introduced by luim more effectually to preserve the neutral rela tions of the Unitad States. The bill repeals certain seotions of the act of 1818, which forbids the hiring of an American citizen to enlist in a foreign army, or his going abroad for that purpose, and prohibits American shipbullders from being concerned in butld- fog, Otting out or equipping veasels designed to cruise against any foreign power with whom we are at peace, He argued that this statute of 1519 was « part of an arrangement by which Spain ceded to the United States the Floridas, the cession being made multancously with this legislation, designed to on- able Spain to hold om to her own colonies, The statute was designedly unneutral, beca it was passed at the solfeitation of one belligerent against the interests of the other. An American citizen enlisting in rmy of France in @ war with Great Britain, would, In case of capture by the latter, be treated simply asa prisoner of war, but our law of 1818 would make him HNaole, if he returned home, to @ pevalty of $1,000 because of his An American merchant in New well and deliver 8 vessel to Cuban insurgents, receive pay therefor, and go to Madrid, there employ the proceeds of that transaction without the Spants jovernment daring molest him; but he could not stay in his own Country without undergoing a heavy penalty Such was the operation of this unjust, un- necessary, and, as be thought, unconstitutional Inw. Tn conclusion, he said if a vernment existed in Cuba which claimed to be independent of Spanish eontre!, and if we believed tad dence to be Cuba's jost right, and that it would be made good use of, we owe it to Cuba, lo the memory of owr American 1 to avt ton to the patriots of that independence, and 60 at once atch ‘the category of pirates.

Mr. Dawns sald he did not know exactly why #0 many men tad been thrown out of employment tn two bureaus of the Navy Department; but he appre- hended it arose from the desire to put into commis. sion a larger number of ships than ever before, and from tLe consequent emplo) meut of a greater hum: der of men than usual.
