A private letter, dated at Madrid, from an authoritative sour oe, states that Sickles offered the United States as a mediator between Spam sad Cuba-the proposition being the aboli? tion of slavery and the payment to Spain by the Cubans tor forts, public buildings, &c. While 8pain does not reject the mediation, there are serions obstacles in the way of an acceptation. The impression among BUD; Spanish statesmen is, however, that Cuba will eventually pass from Soaniah control. It is stated that Spain demands, as a preliminary, that the Cubans lay down their arma, which, it ie ascertained, the Cabans will not do, having no guarantee of protection from the volun? teers, who, it is stated, aim at the absolute control of the island, and have a secret organi? zation to that end. - A special to Un Times makes Grant Bay to the Souter delegation from Tennessee that ho ^ recognized Mr. Seater as a Republican, and considered that the Bepub'icans who v ned for him still belong to the Republican party, and, in addition, that be won'.d not remo-e from office any Federal official in the State for hav? ing thrown the weight of his infl lenee against Mr. Stokes.

The History of the Locomotive Buiintw -Waat Crews hod to Say-A Letter from the Power Behind the Throne How Scott Rans the Machine. TO THE KDITOB OF THE NEWS. I beg the use of your columns for tbe pur? pose of exposing certain improper nels perpe? trated by some of that pany who now bold position in this Stato-once hold only by men ot honor and distinction-ar.d also for tho pur? pose ot correcting misrepresentations mauo by ono of their clan, who. singularly enough, aa snme8 tho nigh-aouuding norn de plume of "Veritas," as if there could possibly be truth among such a swoet-scontedparty. The Lamons Railroad was chartered a num bar of j cara ago, and conducted until the closo ol the late war by a president and board ot directors. Ab that time, however, it was found impracticable to run tho road as formerly, and it fell a prey io tho garrisons of United States troops, which, from time to time, occupied Laurens Comrtheuse. But even tbeso toou discontinu d i is use, and tho road was virtually abandoned for the spaoa of several months. Darin? that per OJ it became to be considered public property. Its depots were abused; its rolling stook subjected to tho most fldgraut and indecent vi?lenos; its cross-tics aud string- J era torn ap, and freely need as firewood. In? deed, a portion of one of ils tressels was cul a*ay, at the imminent peril of the whole struc? ture. In this emergoncy, I, as president of the road, with tho board of directors, concluded it to be advisibfoto lease the road to any re? sponsible individual who would ruo it and re taro it to us, at the expiration of a stated period, in running order. The offer was, there? fore, published in various journals of this und other States; bat, on tho dev for the reception of proposals, no one made us au overture. I then, seeing the impossibility of the road be- j ing managed by itsregular director?, and bc- I ing convinced of its imp >rtance to Laurens | District, proposed to undertake the conduct cf j lt myself. My proposition was unanimously I agreed to. I accordingly obtained a lease of j tho road foi thc period of five years. I prc-1 ceeiod, at groat tioublo and expense to my? self, to carry out the terms of this lease, and have continued ap to this timo to run a tri? weekly train regularly for the transportation of passengers and freight, and a daily freight tram whenever it became necessary. I have not profited myself; I have not squandered tbe small resources of the road; I have not taxed the patrons of tbe road. I have restored the road-bed, formerly very defective; I have re- I paired trestles, .at ono time positively dan? gerous; I have kept tho depots itt order; I j have added to tho effective- rolling stock; 11 have afforded transportation to passengers ! and freight far more cheaply than was done darin tr tbe sus pf aa ion of the io ul. The charge of ''Ventas" .'s, therefore, as false and stupid as we should expect from Locomotive Scott, Cylinder Crews, and that ilk. Bat to the matter immediately under discus? sion. A. M. Brodie and John W. 8. Arnold ob? tained, uot long ago, judgments in the United States Court against the Laarens Railroad. Under tbeso judgments levy was made, and the rolling stock of the road sold at auction on the first Monday in Aoril last. The great salos mm and ubiquitous Joseph Crews was there, and did himselt the pleasure of bMdiog in that property tor the righteous Robert E. Scott as Governor of Sooth Carolina, according to tho statement of the veracious "Veritas," and on bis own responsibility, without a word of direc tiou from the slid Robert E., either as an indi? vidual or aa Governor. Why such sale and Parchase were made I am at a loss to dis? cover; for there existed mortgages from the road to tbe State of Sooth Carolina and the Bank of tho State, executed ia 1859, which would far moro than cover ail thc rolling stock that ever sharp-eyed Joseph and righteous Dr. Scott could scent ont. I wrote to his Excellency-the self-sacri? ficing Governor-to know by what authority his agent interfered with my lease. To this he re? plied through bis secretary, Joba Heart, as fol? lows: STALL- OF SOUTH CAROLINA, i EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT, \ COLUMBIA, Jane 9,1969. ) B. Bf James, Etq^: , Sis-I am directed by Irs Excellency, Gov? ernor Scott, to acknowledge tho. receipt of your Dote of the 5th instant, and to inform > ou that the Laurens Railroad was bid ia for bim, ou bis individual accomt, by Mr. J. Crews, aud that be is now acting under bia authority. Hiu object was and in to prevent a sacrifice of the road, and of the interest of the S'ate involved in it, until a final settlement was made of its affairs. . Very respectfully, JOHN HUABT, Private Secretary. It is difficult to determine what is most coo- j spicuous in this document-good sense, g. od rhetoric or good grammar. But whatever it be io these respects, it is a fiat contradiction of "Veritas," from which it appears that one of the two bas been guilty of gross falsehood. For ..Veritas" says that tho purchase was made without Scott's knowledge, for tho bene? fit of the State aud in the na mo of the Gov? ernor. Heart says bj was made in Scott's in? dividual name, and that Scott's object ct the tune was, -tc, plainly showing that Scott had i atended tho p ircha-.e. Heart says that Scott purchased the whole road; but it is reason? able to suppose that tho old man had just returned from a dining party, and by reason thereof forgotten that railroads are not thrown in when one purchases a locomotive. As :o his Excellency's object there caD be no doubt, of course; all carpet-baggers aro known t ibo honest, patriotic meu, who would cbeei folly spend their last cont rather than ?oe thc State suffer. I desire, lastly, to reply to a chirge prelcr red, partly if not wholly, agaiuat rae by "Veri t is. ' It is in regard to the disposal of proper ? r belonging to thc Laurena Railroad His si at (.mont is utterly false, from beginning to end, as I can establish by all tho officers of the road, who have bad opportunity to boco ne a> qu tinted with those things. I did exchange, on some occasions., worn-out castings of my road with the Greenville aud Columbia Rail? road, but exchanged them for new ones, which I at once applied to thc Laurens Road. The cyliadera mentioned by "Verit?t?" as fraudu? lently disposed of by me and patchaaed by the patriotic Joo Crews, were Dot sold, nor pre? vented from sale by tho patriot aforesaid, nor ever destined for anything beyond exchange with tho Greenville and Columbia Railioad for repairs upon the engine of this road. Those cylindera were uot detached from ai engine on the road, but belonged to an engine explod? ed years ago, which could Dot bo repaired which, ot course, lett them useless to tho road. Indeed, far from waiting what I found on the road, I repaired ita cars, al? most eu I ?rely built an eng ino from tho wrcoks ? f one condemned and oast aside, strengthened its trestles, renewed the wood and iron work on the road. and. in ebert, ad? ded to tho efficiency of the road, as every mau on the line knows. ''Veritas" is. therefore, wilfully and maliciously false, and would be benoa'h my notice, or that of any respecta? ble man, but for the enormity of his represen? tations and tho secrecy with which he veils himself. In conclusion, let mc ask wbo is Veritas?" Where does he hail from? And how much was ho paid for his history of the cylinders of thc Laur ns Railroad? BENJAMIN 8. JAMES, Los'co Laurens Railroad.

BLACKVILLE, September 2.-A mooting of the merchants of Blackville and the planters of the vicinity was held on Tuesday night, at thc Market Hall. The Intendant of tho town, M. F. Melony, Esq.. was called lo tho chair, and Captain W. D. McMillan requested to act as secretary. E. 51. Carroll, Esq., on behalf of the planters, presented tho fallowing memo? rial : Whereas, It i? evidently beyond disputo that co'ton and other orodiice brought into mar? ket for s le at a lato hour of the night, bv irresp nsible persons, is dishonestly obtained; and, whereas, parties DuichaMing tho same under such oircurastaucos should bc held re? sponsible by the community; therefore, we tho citizens and planters of this vicinity do hereby request that the merchants of Blackville do organize among themselves some plau by which the farmers mav bc protected, and this great evil ot illicit traffic abated. The following note was received from Dr. W. 8. Reynolds, read ooforc tho meeting, and on motion ordered to be printed with the proceed? ings : FAIE MOUNT PLANTATION, August 31,18G9. Messrs. W. H. Neeels and W. P. McMillan: UESTLEMEX-Your noto, inviting me to the meeting at Blackville this evening, has boon ' duly received, and, as circumstances are such that I Bhall not be able to attend, I adopt this method of expressing to you my conviction of tbe great importance of the meeting, and the praiseworthy efforts of the gentlemen who have originated it. The stealing of cotton by negroes, and selling it to dtsboucsl wbito nen, bas become so great an evil that no honest man can regard it but with feelings of indigna? tion. I regard it as a dtsgraco to any com? munity that considers itself a deceno one. that any white man should be tolerated in it who would be so mean and 'mer? cenary as to instigate negroes to plun? der the fields of their neighbor?, and re? ceive from them tho articles they have stolen. Yet unfortunately tbeie are somo few who will do that, and I regard it as a duty which the honest merchants owe to themselves to show io the world that they will do everything in their power to put down^he /ile practice-one that is corrupting and encouraging to thieves, discouraging to honest laborers, and engen? ders feelings of bitterness on tbe part Oi tho planters towards those whom they would otherwise regard with kindness. Your meet? ing is a most laudable and important one, and is calculated to do great good both to tho whites and the colored people, and I sincerely hope it will organize thc means that will bc effectual. With respect, yours trulv, W. S. REYNOLDS. The following resolution was tbeu offered by Mr. J. A. Birckmyor, unanimously carried, and subscribed to by tuc merchants of tho place: Wc, the merchants of Blackville iu order to guard as far as possible jpainst the great evil of purchasing cotton ma other prod ace that may bo illegally gottoo possession of. do hereby agree and bind ourselves not to purehaso cot. ton aud other produco betweeu the hours of eight o'clock at night and daylight 4ft the morning; and we furthermore piedlo ourselves to use every effort to discover aDd expose any persons who may engage in such illicit traffic. Ou motion, lt WM ordered that tho proceed? ings bo furnished for publication ia thu Senti? nel and Journal. M. F. MOLONY, Chairman. W. D. MCMILLAN, Secretary. Considering the above determined and man? ly course of the merchants of this place piuisc worthy, and as au important stop towards thc correction of a most ucfancus practice, I soud you a copy of the proceedinrs. May we uot trust"tint thia initiatory step miy be tho inau? guration ot a movement which will spread throughout tbe State, aud be tho means of ac? complishing incalculable good. As an instance in proof of thc extent to which this evil is car? ried, I wdl say that one of tho planters prcseut stated that, to the best of his belief and infor? mation gained from a close examination, ho had already lost by stcalage from his fiolds, this year, at least one bale of cotton. Eleveu bales of cotton wore seat down this morning, consiguod to Messrs. Palzjr, Rod gois & Co. and Messrs. Frost <fc Ad?er. Woa thor decidedly winterish, calling thick clothing into requisition.

Tho panics connected with it are a licutcnautnamod Negri and tho Countess da Navara. Negri had some papers belonging to the countess, and she went to San Paolo to ob? tain them. After she had been there two or thiee d ij s her landlord heard cries for help, and rushed up to her ronni. Negri ran out of thc^ door as th-? landlord 'entered. The couutess appeared greatly moved, and told thc landlord that Negri had endeavored to force her to write a lotter to her friend stating that she had committed suicide. On her hesitating to do this, bc snatched a dagger from her hind, which tho carried for self-defence, and was in the act of striking her when she fled to another room, followed by her maddened lover. Thc dagger was again uplifted, when the foo - step? of the landlord seemed to para'yze him, | ace] be made bis escape. On tbe next day several camby officers, beariDg of the af? fair, came to tho boase to protect tbe coun? tess, who determined to return to Voghera. Two officers and the landlord accompanied hor as far as Caaerta, where they left her, the couutess refusing their society any farther, adding that she no longer had any fear. On tho train arriving at Isolctta, the station on tho Russian frontier, tbe body of the unfortu? nate woman was fou jd extended on the floor of the carriage, a revolver at her feet, a pistol shot in her bead, and hor bands covered with blood and cut as if by glass.
