Wpton, has returned to that port diminished An numbers and with other marks of having Buffered in action with the patriots, is accounts for the fact that the gun- boat Triunfo, which was to have brought to Havana the arms and ammunition reported by the volunteers as having been captured from the cargo of the Upton, arrived in that rity without anything on board, having ap- parently dropped those valuable captures by the way. » ——— Lportant Vamilton Fish, Sidney Webster, and their Relations to Spain, /*We are glad to record the circumstance Mat an advocate has been found to defend the Bpanish administration of the State Depart- ment by Mr. Hamivron Fist against the ppinion which prevails concerning it among yo large a portion of the people. ‘The de- Jence, to be sure, is not very clear nor very trong, but it is better than none at all. It Js found in Harper's Weekly, and it consists In the phrase of “the absurd aspersions wpon the Secretary of State.” , What are these aspersions? Why, they ‘wre nothing more nor less than that Mr. Fisi’s Bon-in-law is counsel for the Spanish Govern- ment, and has been paid by that Government Es much as $17,000 in gold at a time for his Bervices ; and that, in consequence of the pe- cuniary relation between the son-in-law and Bpain, the father-in-law has been induced to espouse the Spanish side, and to abandon the Cubans in their ence and freedom, Is this an absurd asper- gion? Let us consider the testimony, For some time after Mr. Fist became See- retary of State he was an outspoken friend of Cuba, During this period he took no im- portant step bearing upon Cuban affairs without privately conferring with Mr. Mo: RaLes Levs, the chief representative in this country of the Cuban people. When Mr. Pact 8. Forvrs camo over to this country and made arrangements for Duilding gunboats to reinforce the Span- Goh ficct on tho coast of Cuba, Mr. Fis was still firm in his attachment to the arty of liber ah ward completion he fcized, 60 that the struggle for inlepend. As soon as need to- em all to be y were in the custody of the United States authorities when they wero Mnished. In short, he orything for Cuba that could possibly been done by him, mnd gave a great deal of er those who were k revolutionary moveme The Spanish Gover: t now put their in. terests in the matter of the gunboats into the hands of Mr. St1onry Wrrster, Mr. Fisti’s Bon-inlaw; and, as has since appeared, the Spaniards paid to Wousten a tee of $17,000 In gold for his services in the This hav- Ing been done, the ardor of Mr. Fisu in the Laban cause at once began to cool off, and by the time the gunboats were completed and ready to sail, it had entirely disappeared, and hostility had taken itsplace. The gunboats were released and went to Cuba; and they have since been occupied in increasing the Tifficultics of the patriota. They have also raptured and taken to execution some natur- alized American citizens, who had become Buch in order to testify their devotion to the tause of freedom during our civil war. , These, then, aro the simple facts; Mr, Fis was a friend of Cuba and of freedom. Th Bpanish Government paid his son-in-law B17,000 at one timo, and we know not how Much on other occasions; and Mr. Fisu Yhereupon becomes a friend of Spain and an tnemy of Cuba! . , Ie any further evidence needed upon this question? Shall we be told that the asper- sion is absurd, because Mr. Fisn, is other- wise a man of respectable character? Ts not the very fact that, bei cretary of Btate, Mr. Frsit allowed his son-in-law to act as counsel forthe Spanish Government at all, and to reecive a fee of $17,000 gold in su a case, alone enough to destroy this varnish of respectability? Or was the character of Mr- Fist ever any more respectable than that of Jon Baxcnort Davis, the Assistant Seere- tary of State, inthe same office in which Mr. Fisit is himself the principal? Is he any more respectably connected than Mr, Davis? Does he come of any higher lineage? And yet it has been proved by the Legislature of Maseachusctts that this same Davis, the son of honest Joun Davis {of Massachusetts, B® man of the most elevated social rela- tionshi)s, has taken a bribe of $60,000 to betray the confiding stockholders of the Erie Railway, elected him one of gunboats wer ‘ouragement to n here as agents of the who had their confidential ents! This shows how worthless mero respectability is to sustain & man against pecuniary temp. tations. It shows also how rash aro those who, upon the evidenco of respecta- Dility and deportment alone, undertake to set side facts so notorious and so weighty as those that we have recounted in regard to Mr. Fisn, ¥ Tho popular conviction that Mr. Fist has ‘been controlled in his conduct toward the Cubans by consideration for tho pecuniary fntercst of his son-in law is groatly strength. @ned by tho fact that, notwithstanding the Fevelations mado by the Logislature of Mae sachusetts, he has for months retained Mr. Davts in office in the most confidential rela tions, and in a placo where dishonesty and treachery can do the greatest injury to the Government, and secure the ¢ t peeuni ary gains for the guilty party If Mr. Frew were still a man of euch transcendent and lofty purity, of euch delicate conscien- tioueness, that the mere intin m of his acting motives becomes on absurl ity, would he keep in such a place and in such relations to himself a man against whom the Legislature of Mas sachnsetts has proved charges so damnin Let those who lightly aside such evidence as wate om bas underiake to set we have adduced, pause and reflect a moment npon the reten- tion of Jonn Bancnort Davis in the State Department, before they presume again to proclaim that pure and spotless innocence still belongs to its head. —<—<—$<$<—<— Light on Life Insurance, The facts respecting the paid-up life insur- ance policy intended for Gen, Gnanv are gtadually coming to the surface. We aro informed by the Kerening Post that the scheme was first, started by Gen. Horack Portier, one of the military secretaries at tho White Honse, and Mr. Jans Woeetrn, his _ brother in-law. Wheeier, it seems, is employed as an agent to procure business for the Equitable Life Company, and, as sach, receives a hand some commission for every policy that is issued upon his solicitation, A paid-up life policy of $50,000, which would cost $27,000 in cash, would give to Mr, WirkeLer about $1,500 as commission. Accordingly, Gen. Ponten is said to have written and put into Wier 's hands a letter calling upon friends of the Prosident to subscribe the sum of $27,000 for this purpose; and with this letter Mr. Wirernin went about among some prominent Republican politicians and officeholders, endeavoring to obtain their subscriptions, In this city, as we understand, he succeeded in procuring subse the amount of $8,000; and, as the Brening Post states, he had also realized $10,000 from officeholders and others in Philadelphia. Among the subscribers in this city we learn that the Hon. Moszs H. GrinneLL, Collector of the Port, was down for the liberal contribution of $1,000. Mr. Henry € s, the handsome and wealthy banker of Wall street, was also down for $1,000, and some other officials and politi- cians of various rank had signed the sub- ecription paper. The Hon. Tiromas Mcn- piry, however, though he had been applied to, had not signed. Gen. Jonna, tho Postmaster, was mentioned in a memoran- dum in the hands of Wier.er, and the subject was about to be urged upon his at- tention when the publication of the scheme by the independent press arrested its further progress. It was expected that Gen, Jonns would furnish at least $1,000. Mr. Conner, the Surveyor of the Port, Gen. Mrnnitt, the Naval Officer, and Judge Fororn, the Sub- Treasurer, had neither of them shown any willingness to contribute, though we dare say they had been applicd to. Some contri- butions had also been promised by subordi- nate oflicials, and there is no doubt that the whole sum of $27,000 would have been made | up ere this, and the policy put into the hands of Gen, Gnsxt, but for the untimely noise made about the matter by the med- dlesome newspapers. The qnestion necessarily arises whether Gon. Grant had himself given encourage. ment to this precious operation of his eec- retary and secretary's brother-in-law, On his point the only positive evidence is af. forded bya correspondent of ‘THe Sux, who stated in a letter dated the 20th inst. and pub- lished on Tuesday Jast, that when Gen, Por- TER lately passed through the city, he per- sonally assured some of the gentlemen con- cerned that the President not only took an interest in the subject, but that he was dis- turbed at the slowness with which the sub- scription was made up. In regard to this point, however, wehave no other testimony than this allegation of our correspon- dent; but it is somewhat confirmed by the fact that the subscription was started on the strength of a letter by Gen. Pontrr commending the undertaking tothe President's friends. Is it likely that in his intimate relation to President Grant Gen. Ponrer would have presumed to do this unless he had reason to belicve that it would be agreeable to his principal ? * Gen, Gnanv’s fondness for presents has Leen too often and too conspicuously evinced to be a matter of any doubt. Nor is there ony reason why, after having received houses, horses, libraries, and almost every porsible form of donation, and after having shown his appreciation of his benefactors by appointing #0 many of them to valuable offices, the President should look with dis favor upon an effort to bestow upon him an additional testimonial. At any rate, it is for Lim and for hie secretary to show that this scandalous undertaking was set on foot without his sanction ; and it will be difficult to make people believe that if the policy had been made up and tendered to him, ho would have rejected the comy ——_— The Jews in Roumania. According to official statistics issued by the Government of Roumania, the Jewish population has increased in that principality from 60,000 in 1849 to upward of 400,000 in 1870. The Jews there are said to enjoy all possible freedom, and to possess 176 syna- gogues, while there are only 63 Roman Catholic, 12 Protesiant, and 11 Armenian churches in the country, The Roumanian Government has sent a number of young Jews, at its own expense, to complete their education in Paris, and has nsion upon the widow of Dr, a Jew, who held the position of Profvssor in the Military Academy, and at whose funeral an cloquent address was de- livered by one of the most eminent Christian prelates of Roumania. The Roumanian jour nals caution the world against the false pub- lications of the Alliance Israélite of Paris, which association is responsible for the hoax recently practised upon this country, The Jews are a8 prosperous in Roumania as they are in the United States, and this is saying a good deal, ‘They had better leave well enough alone, and be content with their advantages asthe chief moneyed men of the country, without aspiring at the same time to the laurels of fictitious martyrdom, We are glad to perceive that Gen, @nanT has conferred a p Bunacue, withdrawn the nomination of Mr. Worr Bucnxer as Consul at Bucharest. We have the highest regard for our Jewish fel- low e'tizens; but there is no reason for tax- he American people to establish a con ewlar éinecnre of $4,000 a year upon the ground of protecting Roumanian Israelites against more or less imaginary persecutions. ——— The Decision in the Real Case. The Court of Appeals has affirmed the ae tion of the Genoral Term of the Supreme Court in the case of Joun Rear, and that murderer is at last to be hange This decision is a most honor ndorse- ment of Judge Bansann, before whom Reat was tried, In a court room crowded with tho angry friends of the prisoner, and him. self threatened by them with vengeance in ease of Rear’s conviction and sentence, Judge Bannanpd was equally fearless and fair, Every one of his rulings is now sus tained by the highest tribunal in the State ; and the justice decreed in his Court, though long delayed, will at Inst be done. Firmness in the administration of the criminal law is essential to the public safety in this city. The judiciary shows itself re- solved to administer it regardless of politi- cal pressure or threats ; and in this course it deserves the support and hearty approval of ever; od citizen. 7 — All Hail! The Senate € come Tax. The Senate yesterday struck out the odious, unconstitutional, and unjust income tax from the Bill to Reduce Internal Taxation, This is an encouraging and auspicious determina- tion, Wo trust the Senate will persevere in it. The income tax party in the House is fanatical and obstinate, but it should not be allowed to have its way. It is not alone the principles of jnstice and fair dealing that are involved in this question, but the existence of the Republican party. Let the Senate stand firm and keep the glory of abolishing the income tax. <a a Mr. Goirpwin Swit has not increased his reputation in England by ealling Mr. Dronartr ‘a coward in return for having been called a para. site, The worst of it is that the Professor’ epithet would have been strictly applicable to hi adversary if the latter had deelined to fight him ; while so far it does not appear that he has de- puted cither Mr. Greeter or Mr. Gonxrs to chal- lenge the author of “ Lothair” to mortal combat. It remains now to be seen, however, whether Mr, Disnagut will resent the charge of cowardice. In the meanwhile, itis rather to be regretted that Mr. Swit did not send his invective against Drs- nagtt by the submarine telegraph. This would have heightened the dramatic effect of the thing, and the cable flashing back insult for insult would have given a new evidence of its many-sided usefulness, ushes the Ine eS eS We aro informed from Washington that the Cuban Ring, whose scheme of selling the island to the volunteers wns first made public in the columns of Tie Ses, still lives. and has hope of realizing its great p ect ‘ Chie ES Gen.
