Ilr.vot.i'TlONAK v Movkmentb in Spain From the necoont received by the Arabia, it would ccem that various insurrectionary outbreaks had occurred at Sairagonxa and ut other point? in Spain, evidently the natural result of the recent arbitrary measures of the Spanish Government, as well as the general un popularity of the Queen and her favorite. Madrid and the whole province were in a stato of seige. The detail are obscure, but the outbreak at Sarra gossa was raid to have been the premature explosion of a deeply laid conspiracy in which General Concha was implicated. The latest rumors Mate that the insurgents, after being once defeated, had been join ed by the Garrison of Huesca, and had made another stand. There is something characteristic in the attacks made upon the Queen of Spain for her open and no torious profligacy and wantonness. It is not so much against the affair itself that objection is made, but because the favorite is not a clever fellow. If he were, it would appear as though the Spaninh people would regard it as a perfectly constitutional arrange i men!, and one of which the Queen's husband could have ho juat reason to complain.

Tkt PittkltMt'a .Mtuir n Ike itrr f ) BlMk Uirrlti. To lie me of Rtjn(tulaliit : In' compliance with the resolution cf the House of KepreseaUtives of the 10th instant, I herewith trans mit a retort ot the Secretary of State, containing all thr inf.imnti.m recrivel at the department in rtlt i :ni ti the r- inn- nf the B ack Warrior at Havana on the 23tu uitiinv. There hiive been, in the course of a few years pat, many other instance of ag greion ur.n our commerce, violations of the rights of Ameiican eitizens, and insnlts to the national flag, by the Spanish authorities in Cuba ; and all attempts to obtain redress hast led tu protracted, and as yet fruitless, negotiations. The document in the case are voluminous, and, when prepared, will be sent to Congress. Thoe now transmitted relate exclusively to the wixure sciuie of the Black Warrior, and re sent so clear a case of wrong that it would be reason able to expect full indemnity therefor as soon as this unjustifiable and offensive conduct nhall be made known to her Catholic Majesty's government ; but similar expectations in other cases have not been re alized The offending party is at our doors, with large powers for aggression, but none, it is alleged, tor repratation. 1 he source of redress is in another hemisphere, and the answers to our just complaints made to the home government are but the repetition of excuses, rendered by inferior officials to their su- pel ioi, in reply to representations of misconduct. The peculiar situation of the parties has, undoubted ly, much aggravated the nnuoyances and injuries which our citnens have suffered from the Cuban au thorities, and Spain tides not seem to appreciate to its full extent her responsibility for the conduct cf these authorities. In giving very extraordinary pow ers to them, she owe it to justice and to her friendly relations with this government to guard with great vigilance against tho exorbitant exercise of these powers, and. in cast f injuries, to provide fur prompt redress. I have already taken measures to present to the government of Spain the wanton injury of tho Cuban authorities in the detention nnd seizure of the Black Warrioi. and to demand immediate indemnity for the injury whic'.i has thereby resulted to our citizens. In view of the portion of the island of Cuba, its proximity to our count, the relations which it must ever bear to our commercial and other interets, it is ! snrcd that a law prescribes that, when it is clearly vam to expect that h series of unfriendly acts, in- shown that there has been no intention of infringing be bad a!ready applied for the vessel' despatch, ct something to this effect. It ia true that Mr. Tyng bad applied for the despatch ; but it rgay be well to bear ia mind that it was not given ; and it is a ques tion, in my opinion, whether the steamer conld be considered as cleared, ia effect, so far as regards the clearance on the 25th, before she had arrived. 1 deem it informal. Mr. Tyng was at the same time informed that the cargo was confiscated, and the cap tain fined, according to the custom-house regulations. In the afternoon of the sane day, (I have been in formed.) a gang of men were sent alongside the ship, to commence the discharge of the cargo; but finding that the capiain and purser were on shore, the oper ation was deferred until the next morning, when they again appeared, and the officer at the head of the party demanded of the captain the delivery of the cargo, which Captain Bullock declined, remarking to the officer that if he took by force, aa he must do, one single bale of the cargo, he (the captain) would in stantly haul down his colors, and abandon his ship to them. This seemed to make the officer hesitate. He suspended his operation, and came on shore no doubt to lay the facts before bis superiors, and receive their directions. He soon returned on board, opened the hatches, and commenced the discharge; whereupon, Captain Bullock hauled down his flag, and, with his officers and crew, abandoned the veseeltothe Spanish authorities. On the evening of the 23th I received the captain geneial's reply to my letter, which was far from sat isfactory. A copy and translation of the same were transmitted to you with my communication, No. 34. sent per steamer " Corwin." On the 1st, at about 12 o'clock, the collector wrote u communication to Mr. Tyng. I send you a copy of this communication, as welt as that of a second letter from the same officer, also that of Mr. Tyng's reply. Knclosed you will likewise find a copy of a letter I received last evening from the intendente " of the treasury, and of my reply thereto. I also ac company a copy of the printed regulations which are handed to all captains of vessels on the first visit from the custom-house officers. I have omitted to say that I am informed that the regulations concerning stramers renuire that they shall manifest the quantity of coal they have on board, but that in no instance has this law been complied with . This neglect or unobservance of the laws 'jy the authorities themselves has rendered them obsolete, and therefore inapplicable. I am also as fringing our commercial rights, and the adoption of a policy threatening the honor and security of these States, can long conflict with peaceful relations In cuso the measures taken for amicable adjust ment of our difficulties with Spain should unfortu nately fail, 1 shall not hesitate to use the authority and menus which Congress may grant to insure the observance of our just rights, to obtain redress for injuries received, and to vindicate the honor of our flag In anticipation of that contingency, which I earnestly hope may not arise, I suggest to Congress tho propriety of adopting such provisional measures as the exigency may seem to demand. FKANKLIN PIKKCK. Wasiiincion, Maich 15, IH.1 Letter from Consul lioheitson to Setntanj Marty. No. 35. CoNM'i.m: ok tub United Staiis, j Havana, March 3. 1854. ) By the United Slates steamer Corwin, which I despatched to Charleston on the 1st instant, con ceiving that tho importance of the intelligence I had to communicato justified that course. I advised you of the seizure by tho custom-house authoiities here, apparently, or rather evidently, with the consent rtnd approbation of the supreme autolirity of the is laud, of th" cargo on hoard the steamer Black War rior, ol New Yoil , ami of the attempt to lay a very henvy fine upon the captain of the vessel, which fine is said to be double in amount to the value of the cargo all this under the pretence of his having made a falso entry, to wit : that he stated his ship to he in ballast, when she had cotton on bnard in tmusitu. I letl it to he my duty to repeat the circumstances of the case, to coireit any errors that I may have com municated in my despatch befoie mentioned, num bered 34. The steamer was expected here from Mobile, on her way to New York, on the 26th ultimo. Messrs. Tyng k Co., her consignees, on the day before, (25th, Saturday.) entered and cleared her in ballast. This has been customary for steamers of the Law and British mail- lines. I am informed that the Black Warrior has been entered and cleared in ballast since she commenced to run, now about nineteen months past, making two trips per month, without any ob jection on the part of the custom-house authorities, who cannot plead ignorance of the fact, for immedi ately that a steamer drops her anchor, two custom house guards, and an unlimited number of policemen, public and secret, were placed on board to watch every passenger or packagoon the ship. No attempt has ever been made, that I am aware of, to conceal tho cargo. Furthermoie, the captain of the Black Warrior has been in the habit to deliver to the au thorities, on arrival, several numbers of the public journals of New York or Mobile, of the latest dates, which contained tho advertisement of the Black Wnrrior'H being about to sail on such a date, ex pressing the cargo she carried for her port of des tination. The ship arrived here on the morning of the 28th. The captain delivered his manifest in ballast, as had been customary. He assures me that he had always been under the impression that a special concession existed which exempted his vessel and other steam ers from the formality of manifesting their cargo in transitu : be thinks that the owners of tho ship enter tain the same belief. On tho same day, (28th.) at about 12 o clock, Mr. lyngsent his clerk tothecus tom-hous for the despatch of the steamer, to take the same to the captain of the ports, to procure the pass for her to leave the port; it was refused to him, and he was informed that the ship was stopped by order of superior authority ot the royal exchequer. Upon this, Mr. Tyng, with the captain, came to my office and informed me of the state of the case. Whilst the former was entering a protest, I took the latter with me to the captain-general The object of this inter view was to lay before h!a excellency all the circum- leatcftte I -J j tie.r Arer.cn i c.cr, re:err:r' tj wh ca. tie W a.-h- i i Aner.can -ay : "-It is new faliy eiUll 'lei tUt an cftnive and defensive alliar.ee has been formed ar nst the Uni ted States iot the protection of Sran,h interest ia Cut.

For this sacrifice Great Britain will receive indemnitr is the shir of an arrangement for the ultimate payment of the debt due to her subjects by Mexico; and. perhaps, will even receive a portion of the money payable by the United States under the Gadsden treaty." The administration, it is said, is well satisfied that the insolent proceedings of the Spanish authorities in Cuba in seizing the Blaek Warrior are to he at tributed to their confidence in the support their con duct will receive from England and France. DrciriDLT Cool. The Cincinnati Commercial, of the 14th in st., says: A leap not less perilous than that of Samuel Fatch, was witnessed on Saturday, by the conductor and passengers of the Covington and Lexington train. A young farmer was walking across the bridge at Demoisville, just after the train had passed over, when the engine was sudenly reversed and the cars were backed at a rapid rate. There was no room on the side of the bridge to stand between the edge and the cars ; the only alternative was to spring off into the creek running thirty or forty feet below. The young man gave one look at the cars and instantly sprung over the side and struck the water feet fore most. The train was stopped, but to the surprise of all, the hero of the perilous feat came out of the water, shook himself and walked off whistling, "Jor dan is a hard road to travel I believe ' Short 4'uakagr.

Feb 22 .March K the law, or delrauding her Majesty's revenues, parties shall not be deemed culpable. In my opinion, it is simply ridiculous to suppose for an instant that tho captain of the Black Warrior had any intention to do otherwise than conform to all established regu lations. Although I had written to the " intendonte " last ovening declining the request that I should appoint a Ec r son to take an account of the cargo proposed to j e landed to-day, being led to that course by the idea that the intendente's object was to present at least the semblance of u sanction on the part of this con sulate to their proceedings, I, nevertheless, called up on him this morning, remarking, by way of intro duction, that I presented myself not only in the character of consul or commercial agent, but as a friend ; that I was expecting the steamer Philadelphia to-day, and I was anxious to communicate to my go vernment the true relation of the facts on both sides, that my government might bo prepared to meet the many demands upon it for indemnity by innocent parties interested in the cargo; that I did not come to solicit that his government should after its posi tion, however desirous I might be to aid in preserv ing good relations between the two governments, but to obtain facts. This led to a discussion. Iremrak ed that I could not see how two wrongs made a right ; that it might have been wrong to have entered and cleared the ship in ballast ; but that the captain, through his consignee, had attempted to correct the error, within the legal time, and ho had not been per mitted : that this added to the long-continued, and by the authorities well-known, practice of entering in ballast when she had cargo in transitu. I did not see how they could put themselves in the right; still, that I was not disposed to contest the law points bear ing on the case, but that it had given me much pain that the matter had not been settled satisfactorily and amicably, as it ould have been; and finally that 1 was apprehensive that this affair might create great agitation and difficulty, from the circumstances of there being so many parties interested who had noth ing whatever to do with the vessel. To all this tho intendente said that he regretted that be had not seen me before ; that, as the matter stood, toe did not know what to do, but he would examine carefully into it, and try to bring it to a satisfactory termina tion, or something to this effect. But, in the mean time, the ship has been, by order ef the authorities, hauled to one of the wharves, and some of the cargo taken out. There is every appear anee that it is intended to proceed with the discharge. In my despatch (No. 34) I stated that the British mail line have also been in the habit of entering and clearing in ballast when they had cargo on ooard. Mr. Crawford the British consul, has assured me to day thai such is not the case. Some of the officers and all the crew of the ' Black Warrior" are on board of the United States steamer Fulton ; the transient passengers, fourteen, in num ber, are on shore. I beg of you to consider my anxiety to lay before you ali the circumstances that I can bring to mind in regard to this unfortunate affair, as a sufficient apolo gy for the'length of this despatch. There are three or four other American vessels in difficulty here at present; but I do not consider their cases ot such importance as to require that I shall trouble you with them until I can ascertain the re sult, and whether this has not been in conformity to law. I have the honor to be, sir, with great respect, jour very oooaient servant. , WM. H. ROBERTSON, Acting Consul. Hon. Wm. L. Marcy, Secretary of State of the U. S., Washington.
