Fne Charleston Standard has the following des- , ... . . ptch. It contains informal. of an interesting character concerning the acquisition of Cuha : "Washington, June 5, 1654. As I informed you the other day, there is no doubt that our diffi- lenities with Spain are gradually approximating an amicable termination, intelligence to inai eueci having been received by various of the diplomats o J rc congregated. A special hearer of despatches nrorn ripsnnlr-hps from Madrid to the Spanish Minister, Senor Cueto, i - . . i t . came out in ine lasi steamer wnn iniormauon uiai al was in a fuir way of adjustment, and that ne- gotiations were progressiiig lor the purchase of ihe Island of Cuba by the Lnited States. Spain is willing to sell, provide d she can gel her price, the opposition'o England and France to the contrary notwithstanding. "The House of Representatives met informally this morning, and adjourned over to Thursday, without transacting any business. Nearly all the members were absent, most of them having gone home to enjoy a few days' rest. From appear ances, little or no business will be transacted this week." Riiiiii:? ii Whirlwind-4' If the Commissioner decrees that Col. Suttle has a fair claim to the services of I lnrns, the authority of thf law will be sustained, and the slave will he delivered to his master. Ol this there can be no doubt, for the authorities and citisens generally have already givn conclusive evidence of their determination to support the laws. Hut we can say to Col. Suttle, and to his Southern friends and backers, thai they are rousing a whirlwind which will sweep away the fugitive slave law, and which may result in momentous censequences, thM every tru- patriot shculd deprecate. Boston Journal. How "rousing a whirlwind?" By the simple act nf claiming ihe surrender of their runaways, as provided for by that law ? Then clearly the repeal of the law can have no gn at terrors lor them. inee in either c.io thev cannot or must not re cover their property under it. But, supposing the law were repealed ; what then? The Constitution remains, and binds the North to make the surren der. How is th it to b- rot rid of? By the process which itsell prescribes, nr by trampling the Con stitution under loot? II the former, we have nothing to complain of. Rut first catch a fish, then cook it. Boston is a large pi ice, and New Lug land is a larg- place ; hut neither oftthem is of any gretit account in 'he aggregate of ihe nation. New England may vote for a repeal of the Fugitive Slave Law, as she voted almost unanimously against its enactment ; she may also vote to repeal the Constitution of the United States. Hut as long as a m:.jritv ol both I louses of Congress is , necessary to repeal a law, nnd Iwo-thirda ol nil : State to amend the Conmiliitioa, it will take Rome thine more than all the whirlwinds which the Abolitionist c.-m rane, niiied by all tho men and women like-minded, by whatever names th- v may be designated, lu accomplish their purpose in a constitutional way. Tin ir only chance seems to be, pflec! "anothrr rolntion," as they already threaten to do, and if, in the end they find this a mre successful game In day at than the other, we shail be greatly disappointed. -Y. lr. Jon nidi of Commerce.
