Lossow, May 6.-The Times of this morning has another article on the Alabama treaty, re? cently rejected by the Senate. The writer sharply criticises Sumner's speech and con oiodes as follows: ^The question is one of law and not of feelings It remains to be shown that Great Britain can be held answerable for any infraction of law or of excess over the or? dinary JrYotioe of both countries," CUBAN AFFAIRS. WASHTNOTOS, May 5.-A republican consti? tution for Chiba has been prepared in this city on the assumption that the Cubans will attain their independen** and desire annexation. It provides tot- one of more 8tates.

Dispatches, fron Commodore Hoff state that an exp?dition, supposed to hs ve sailed from Yucatan, consisting of a large steamer and several sailing Teasels, had attempted to land mea and arms for the Cubana on the sooth ?ide and had failed.

The Governor-General of that island determined to send som? of them to the Canaries and some to Cachs.

HEKB? J. Pox. Oro, Chesterfield County, S. 0. THE JPALXJETTOJRS JAT GEORGIA. A BOUSING WELCOME. Detail* of tbe Firemen'* Celebration The Triol of Engines-How tbe Pal? metto Won-Tbe Banquet, Ac. ATLANTA, QA., May 4, 1869.-Nothing could be more agreeable than the various episodes which have marked the excursion of the Pal? metto EoRine Company of Charleston to this "Gate Uiiy" of the Sooth. Leaving home hst Saturday morning, in company with delega? tions from the Vigilant and Stonewall com? panies, we reached Augusta to be astonished by P< greeting from the entire department of that city. No welcome could have been more kind. There appealed to be a universal desire, officially and individually, to reciprocate the a."tentions that had been bestowed upon some of their number while participating in our own parade and exercises of April 27, and all was done that men could do to mark with pleasure our entrance into the Empire State. After a reception speech by Chief Bryson, of the Augusta Department, and an appropriate response by Chief Nathan, of Charleston, the several companies formed in procession and escorted the Palmettoes first to a hearty sup? per at the Planter's Hotel and thence to the engine bouses of the Vigilants and Georgia Independents (one of the companies which visited Charleston.) In each of these refresh? ments were liberally 'provided, of which the boys partook with becoming moderation. At 8 P. H. the escort was again loaned, and at 9 o'clock we were once more en route lo Atlanta. Two hours thereafter, any one walking through the cars would have seen the human form divine distorted into intoevery conceivable shape, from the longi tadioal - like Agare or Chief Nathan, too fat to double, to the six foot form of President Ferguson, twisted Into a very correct imitation of a figure 8. The snoring reminded one of a choras of o( Soe milla, and the tans te of pro? truding legs was a superb illustration of the intricacies of the labyrinth of Crete. The early part of the night was warm, and the cars io' a condition of tumultuous perspiration, rbis was disturbed towards morning, however, by ona of those sudden changes common to the climate of Georgia, which sends the mer jury from fever heat down to frees in? point, ind made us shiver as if we had b ?en in a cold kith. Three several times that night we met with in accident. Pint, the truck conveying the Palmetto engine ran off the track, and after neffectual efforts to the contrary, both truck ind en crine were left behind. Next, the engine leparted from its ways, and was replaced with uffioultv; and, finally, the sleeping oar, cou arning a goodly number of the firemen, was toing thurn pe ty thump over the sleepers, at he rate of twenty miles an hour. There was 0 immediate change of base by sundry frig h t ned individuals, and a series of manoeuvres ilculated to exemplify all the gymnast io im rovemenfs of a modern circus, but fortunate r no one was hurt. We arrived AT ATLAKTA unday morning, at daylight, where delega- ( lons of the Fire Department, including the " a t ire Company pf Meo nani cs, No. 2-who were a > specially entertain the Charlestonians-were n 1 attendance. If should bo mentioned hore that the G oor? la Railroad Company, through its officers, ttended in their way the same hospitality hieb was shown by the citizens. They pasa 1 the engine free of charge, and a liberal de- a action aas made from the usual price of the 0 assage. * We were welcomed in Atlanta by the Chief 1 f the Department, Thomas A. Haney, Esq , to fc rhose brief but per ioent speech President * Suiet, of the Stonewalls, and Chairman of the * loard of Firemastera, responded in his happi- 1 et vein on behalf of the Paunettoes and the ?har?aston Fire Department. We were then ! scorted to the National Hotel. ^ Sunday wis quietly and appropriately spent. 1 Rubout exception, the men ?voided the en- I ina houses where, with open doora and open * ear ts, the Atlantians sought to show their indly fe?Ho gs to all ?neets. * Monday morning, at about three o'clock, we * rere treated to a rousing fire, which, although ? ot down on the programme ot entertainmen , * ras permitted to burn without much molesta* * loo, and did so with an industry whiohtin 6 aro hours, left bare the ground that had before p een occupied'by four substantial wooden 0 wildinga. The truth is, the Atlant ians wont c a use every patch of ground m the heart of 1 he city, now covered by shanties, for the con- * traction of substantial stores and Vare- ? louses; every fire of this character is, berefbre, a blessing in disguise. - Before the Toundis cold, on these occasions, hare y ma? ?anica are at work with brick and mortar, and few weeks de velo pe tho stately proportions of tractores which make the nano of At lauta a yaonym for enterprise and pi ogress. What he Gate City has done since her destruction y General sherman is illustrated by a single tot, which is a volume in itself. Fioe thou;-and JUT hundred houses were burned in tbe great ooflagrataon. That occurred in 1855. It is ow on(y 1869; yet scarcely a trace of the old oin remains.

The City Council-which, v the way, is composed of active men, and resided over by a live specimen of Young imeri .-a, in the person of Mayor Hulsey, an x-Confederate colonel-had appropriated a um ol money ample for all purples, and the ibsens generally co-operated with the Firo Apartment to give to the occasion all possi >le ecUxL At an early hour, flags, bunting and banners I all description*, m ?uv of wu ch bore words f welcome, were displayed from public and irivate build ingg. A corps of workers wero Iso busy in removing stones and otherwise utting tho streets ia marching order.

This was in front of the State House, or wha is better known as the "Opera House," situai ed on Marietta-street, and one of thehandsom est buildings in the South. An immens throng was here assembled, and, from tb sidewalks five stones upwards, every availabl foot of seeing room wa i occupied by a fai spectator. A broad enclosure, in the centre of whicl ?vas the well, was surrounded by ropes, an< iremen and police united in keeping clear thi ?pace reserved for practice. This commence) i little after twelve o'clock, subject to the fol owing BULES AND HEGEL AXIONS. All steam and hand engines will be class?e iccording to the capacity of their pumpj, Kuy company may enter their en eine tor ans irise above their class if they prefer, but will lot be allowed to re-enter and contest for a Kiss in waich they were clashed.

Each steamer will bo allowed ten minutes lay, after their gauge shows sixty pounds of team. Hand engines will be allowed fifteen minutes 9 play in. The first to enter were the hand engines, nd the first of these were the Tallulah (sec nd class, ) of Atlanta. With a el rong wind in ?er favor, she threw tho extraordinary dis ance of 221 feet. It is proper to add, how ver, that the judges determined to measure >y solid drops, and not by a so'id stream, so bat it may be said that tho favoring wind won , good many feet of the victory. The Defiance, a first-class machine, from if aeon, played next, and threw only 209 feet, [bis was a Jeffers' piano engine, exquisitely leautiful in an almost solid dress of silver ilate, and probably the most costly on the rrouod. Third on the list of hand engines was the Au? gusta No. S, ot Augusta, whose stream meas? led 215 feet. This was one of the finest corn tames on the field. It is composed strictly of irishmen, seventy-two in number - heavy, learty, whole-souled-looking fellows, stout mougb, apparautly, to tear an engine into .Sees; but fale was against them. Their ma bine is similar to that of the Vigilante, of Charleston, being built by Jeffers, and it was 10 fault of the boys in green and grey that hey did not carry away the first prize. The tream Itself was, beyond all comparison, tbe ?est of the three. P. Walsh, Esq., one of the ditors of the Augusta Chronicle and Sentinel, B the President. The great interest of the occasion centred n the trial between tho steamers, and particu arly b .-tween the Atlanta, No. 1, of Atlanta, ?nd the Palmetto of Charleston. Other com lanies, however, fairly divided the honors and lomplimcnta of the day. The first to play off fas the Fillmore, Captain Cohen, of Augusta bataneo, 229 4-10 feet. Second. Vigilant, of Lugusta-distance, 222 9-10 feet. Third. Mc ihauic, No. 2, of Atlanta-distance, 246 5-10 eet. Fourth. Atlanta-distance, 273 2-10 feet. Lt this result the cheering was immonee; mon hrew up their bats and ladies w%ved their lai'dkorchiofs wildly, A fen rash individuals iffered bets that the flguros could not be ex? tolled, all of which were quietly talon by the riends of the Palmettoes. One of ino wagers nade by a Cbailestooian was of a hundred lollara that the Atlanta would sweep tho field, nd tho Palmetto would boat the Atlanta. Ho ron. The Clinch, of Augusta, played next, and hrew a stream of 23?|B-10 fe?t. * It was now late-alter six o'clock; but ?lie de ire to see the Palmetto perform held tbs large ?rowds>ogethtr, and it was not without diffi lulty that the oohoe oonldkoep the spaoe clear iruutid^tlio judges.

A minuto or wo more, am), under a full hoad of power that made her throb in every part and almoet ?ump ficm the ground in a mighty spasm of iron strength, the Palmetto was forcing a stream in su.ccjaivo spurts 250-60-65-70 teet through tho air. Judges and jury aiiku truced tho falling water whou it touched tho sarto, as if it had broken into diamond drops, fhe crowd could scarcely restrain its impa? tience, and only inch by inch fell baok before the pr. ssure ot polios and citizens, who shout pd, "Fair play for the Pwlmottoes, give 'em fair play.? With watchful eire Chief Nathan and Prcp ident Buist marked every sign, and /tom among tho jud?os directed ibo elevation ana course ot tho btxeam ; and when at last, with a giant impulso that made the throng aro the heaving monster press back in terror, Palmetto drove the water beyond the aire ailigned measurement of. the Atlanta, and judges announced " hoo hundred and sevei nine Jeel" a cheer went np from Qeoi hearts that was of itself a reward for the t efl;rt of the day. Outside of the defea I company, who behaved with great maguan ity, there was probably not one who did feel glad that Chu les ton had borne away first honor of the day. It is due lo the Palmettoes to say (wo thii bore ; first, that there was no uuseemly boa ing bet?re or alter thia event, but on the ci trary, oheers for their adversary the "Ailaati and second, that the wind which had blown briskly dnring the aitcrnoon.-more or less voriog every other engine, suddenly lui] when the Palmetto come upon the ground a left her to depend, as it were, on the nab strength of her pumps and piston rods. I ought not to omit the statement, in tl connection, that the judg e appointed for t occasion were Messrs. Colonel J. H. Flyn Dr. J. A. Taylor, Oeueral G. T. Anderson, (G Tige) Wm.

The shadows of evening now began to gat] er, and the several companies, with their e oorts, proceeded homeward. Later in the evei ing, about nine o'clock, they again assemble! and, preceded by the Posi Band of Atlant marched to the banquet hall, which had bee arranged in the Georgia Depot.

We shall resume tho broken thread of 3ur correspondence to morrow.-Ens. NEWS,] THE ALABAMA CLAIMS. K SIGNIFICANT CONVERSATION WITH SENA? TOR SUMNER. We shall not harre m Wer with Eng' land. The Washington correspondent of the New York Herald had a conversation, on b'aturday, with Senator Sumner upon the subject of bis [amens speech on the Alabama claims. The senator was in the best of humor, and though delving aw ?y at a mass of letters and papers on his table, very communicative also. Sena tar Sumner, the correspondent says, is per? haps the most industrious, hard working pub? lic man in Washington, but he is never so busy, never so much engaged, that be is not willing to communicate with the representa? tives of the pub ic press when they call upon him. The principal points of the conversation are these : Correspondent-Mr. Senator, your speech on the Alabama claims is creating considerable feeling io England, judging from the comments of the Eneltsb press. Ur. Sumner-I am not altogether surprised at the way they have taken it England does not like to be told the troth. There never has been a time .-ince the conquest when England liked to be told tbe truth, especially it shu hap? pened to be in the wrong. I consider that this is tbs first ime ehe has had the truth squat ely told her about tho Alabamo claims. Correspondent- I notice that even your friend John Bright doi H not agree with von thia time. Mr. Suinuei -No; bot he tells the British Cabinet in t-o many words that the embarrass? ment caused by my speech serves tbem right. John Bright known very well that England is in the wrong in this matter. Coi respondent-Do you think we will have a war with England, Mr. Senator, before this thing ie settled? air. Sumn/T-No, sir; 1 don't think wo shall bave war. \ bope there is enough intelligence i and good sense on both sides of the Atlantic lo avoid that. Our new minister, Mr. notley, understands this wbolo quostion thoroughly, and be knows just wbat to do and how to do it. Corresponded-I ho tone of the English press is quite belligerent, you notice. Ono ot ibo papers, the Loudon Star, said tobe John Brigbt's organ, says : "I Mr. Motley's instruc? tions are couched" in asimilar spirit (to your speech) his miss on will bc fruitless." Mr. Sumner-I am inclined to think that neither tbe British Ministry nor the british press understand our position exactly ou this question. Ibo Alabama claims treaty, as it is (Ulled, is the first ?nstauc . sinCi 1 have b.'Oti churina" of tue Committee on Foreign Bela tuuN where- * treaty was absolutely report-d against-that is, wi. h the recommendation that it b; njcCiOd* I havd frequently reeoiumeud o i Bomo change or amendment io tho terms i-f a treaty, bri) Ido not remember to bavere p inud that a irea'y ousht to bo rcj cted. Yon Know tbe?OUiile ?as almost unanimous in re? seting ino Alabama treacy. Ibero wa9 but ono vot . i.i its fivijr-that of Senator McCree ry, ot K-mucky. He does not represent anv persou on ih a qutsiion but himself. The ?Sen? ate, therefore, may bo ?aid to be unanimous in Us it j o? ion of me treaty. Now. as i edinda mv BiJjech tua wu? delivered, as you know, iu thu prudence o! a full Se?alo. I thi' k it was rather pucho iu its touo, bot it leflucts the a iuo-it un 'inmjus opinion of the So ate, and mdeed of i ho admmisliaMon.

It was taken up ont of its course, not as it stood on the calendar, and that without a dissecting voice. The "no" of j Mr. McCroery WP S not even beard on this ques? tion. Mr. Motley was unanimously conhrmed. Now this was all done in one day, and it waa all of a piece. It was all one thing-one act, aa it were. The English ministry does not seem to understand this. Correspondent-According to the cable tele? gram, Mr. Gladstone seems to think tbat the treaty was rejected on political grounds alone. Mr. Sumner-Yes; be says he has assurance from reliable quarters that sucb was the faot. Now where contd he get such assurance ? Cer? tainly not bom any person in this country whose opinion would amount to anything. He must have got it from Mr. Reverdy Johnson. Mr. Thornton is too well posted to have com* municated any such information. Correspondent-Probably Mr. Johnson has represented to Mr. Gladi tone that the treaty was rejected because* the majority in the Sen? ate was against both bim and President John? son, merely as 5 matter of spite or revenge. Mr. Sumner-Very likely; but such is not the fact. The very next day after the Alabama treaty was rejected I moved in executive Bes? ann to take up tba British naturalization treaty, which was also negotiated by Mr. Rev? erdy lohnson, and it was ratified. Now ifVe bad been disposed to act in a spirit of reveuge ire might have rejected that treaty also. Mr. Johnson. I have no doubt, feels mortified; but ve cannot help that. I am surprise! at the British Ministry, composed as it is of Doh ti ci ans, 'bat it should go on negotiating this treaty nth Reverdy Johnson under the circumstances, l'on will notice that the negotiations were all jarricd on af tor General Grant had boen eleot :d President, J he treaty was signed in Jami irv. It was in tbat peculiar time in our BVS . em of government between the two tdministrations, when the acting Presi lent may be said io have nothing in the shape of a party behind bim. Reverdy Fohnson really did not represent anybody then, it least be did not represent the majority of j he American people. The British Ministry ibould ha 7e been sharp enough to have seen .his, and postponed negotiations until the new tdministration cane into power. I thought >n< e or twice of calling Mr. Thornton's atten ion to this, but upqn reflection I did not see hat I bad any right to do it. There is a curi >na circumstance connected with the rejection >f the Alabama treaty for which I am at a loss o account. I notice that the London Times here Mr. Sumner produced copies of the Times of April 15,16 and 17)-does not men ion the rejection of the treaty nor refer to my .peech. Thc Times of the 16th contains a ca? lle telegram annonuoing the confirmation of dr. Motley and Mr. Jay. The Alabama treaty vas rejected the same day, and yet there is no efe-re L ce to it. Correspondent-How do you account for hat, Mr. Senator ? There can be little doubt, [ think, that the announcement was sent from his side by tbe Associated Pre.-e. Mr. Sumner-There can be but one theory ibont it-the fact must have been suppressed n England either by Hemer or by the govern neut, most probably tbe latter, throngh Bau? er. The Bn'ieh Government was apprised of | t, however, at au early period, for 1 under? hand Mr. Thornton Bent a dispatoh by cable mnouncing the ac;iou of tbe Senate. Correspondent-How do you account for the Snjlisu pr ces not publishing your speech in lonnection witb their comment? on it? Mr. Sumnor -Thal looks a little suspicious too. t would seem as rf they were a tmia to let the >eople read it before the papers had a chance o prejudice public sentiment against it. I hink, however, they will be compelled to irint it. Coi respondent-How does Mr. Thornton, he British Minister, take the-speecb? Mr. .Sumner -Mr. Uiurmuu ls now absent rom the oity. I have not' seen bim but once Ince I delivered my speech, and that was the lay after, when I met bim at dinner. He eemcd to be very calm then. He is not the .ind of man to malte war. Correspondent-Mr. Senator, do you think ho Alabama business can be amicably ar anged? e.-~f... T v^^n on Whfln the British lovernment and people understand our poo ion botter, I think much ot the difficulty will auieh. You see, they sa*., "What is the use f such an intense feeling on the part ot the anericans about a few ships ? John Bull could mt his band in one of bis pockets and pay tbe lainages in an hour." But that is not exactly hd poiot. They don't look at it a? we do. .'bey don't take into consideration the injury bey have done us. As Richard Cobden'said, hey might as well have battered down all our ines on the seaboard. The injury Great iritain has infl.cted on us is greater than it rae in the war of 1812, much greater. We iave defined onr position now, and 1 have eason to know there will be no yielding. Ve ask nothing bnt what is fair, and our peo ile mean to have justice at least.
