SPAIN.
We stated some time ago that the " outrages" committed by the gun-boat squadron on the look-out for slavers Cuban waters had;been the subject of "complaints" from the Court of Madrid. A semi-official journal published in" that capital says:—" The English. Government, with an uprightness which does it honor, has just given satisfaction to the complaints of Spain on the subject of the insulting conduct of the commander of the English cruiser Buzzard, who visited vessels in the waters of Cuba. The English Government, which on the first news of what had taken place hastened to declare, through its representative, that it disapproved in the most formal manner the conduct of its cruiser, has just nuLly confirmed in writing that declaration, and in a manner the most satisfactory to Spain. As if nothing should be wanting for the satisfaction of our national dignity in this affair, the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the United States has addressed to General Dodge, the American Minister in Madrid, a note, in which he proclaims that the "conduct of the authorities- of Cuba could not hare been-more worthy or amicable than it was to the Government-of America. This must tend to draw closer the relations between that country and Spain."
