Without having seen the despatch of General Sickles, which was sent to the Ministry or State on Saturday last, yoar correspondent has ssen another person connected with the Department who has seen it, and without pretending to know more than he does know.

If his memory and eyesight of it serves him correctly, the following is a reliable version of the diplomatic document which has caused such a furor in Madrid. General Sickles sent a note on Saturday afternoon to the State Department here stating "that his government had requested him to communicate to the Spanish government that the state of public opinion in America was so strong in favor of Cnba that it would be extremely oufflcmt to withliold mucn longer tne recognition of the Cubans as belligerents. Furthermore that if the war in that island continued that for humanity's sake it would be incumbent upon the United States government to take immediate steps towards the recognition of the belligerency of the Cubans. The reports from Cuba Irom special agents were of so serious a nature that duty to humanity compelled the government to take this Here we have as good an account of General Sickles' despatch as If the General himself had furnished tho HERALD with a copy of it, and in a more compendious and comprehensible form. The excitement consequent upon its appearance has not abated in the least.

All classes are being stirred, if not to action, to tho encouragement or each" other to make a more aetennmed effort to the reduction of the Cubans to obedience to the mother country.

Lord Wentworth, the grandson of Lady Noel Byron, and the only surviving son of the Earl of Lovelace, has addressed the following letter to the Pan Mall your number of September 3 you say that Mrs. Stowe is a flagrant offender against proprieties, because my sister and I are supposed to have intended to publish correspondence relating to Lord and Lady Byron's conjnaal differences. Kow. supposing Mrs. stowe's narrative to nave been really a '-true story and that we had meant to reveal the whole of our grandmother's history, I do not see what defence that is to Mrs.

Stowe against the charge of reneat- Ing what was told her in a "private, conH- dential conversation." But it is not true that Lady Anne Blunt and I ever intended to publish correspondence of the nature mentioned. About three years ago a manuscript in Lady Koel Byron's handwriting was fonnd among her papers giving an account ol some circumsiances connected with her marriane, aud apparently intended for publication alter her death; bnt as this seemed not quite certain, no decision as to its publication was come to. In the event of a memoir bem" written this manuscript might, perhaps, lie included; hitherto it has not been proposed to publish any other matter about her sepdratioa. This statement ia Lady Byron's own handwriting does not contain, any accusation or so grave a nature as that which Mrs. ttowe asserts was told her, and Mrs, Stowe's story of the separation is inconsistent with what 1 have seen in various letters, of Lady Lady TJvrou says-iii her own statement that oefore being published it on-jhc to be submitted to some person wao had through the Byron memoirs, so as to secure the ccrrecMonor any misstatemeuss.

About twenty minutes past three o'clock yesterday afternoon a young woman entered the Forty- third street station house, Butler and addressing Sergeant Daniel Ferry, who was on duty at the desSr, said in an excited manner, "Oh, sir, my mother has Silled my brother Eddie." The officer being accustomed to hear the term "tilled" applied iu so many instances where the injuries are coin- paratlvely speaking quite trifling, did not attach the full sense or the meaning or the term at once but directed Acting Sergeant Covers to accompany the girl and investigate the matter. He was conducted to Xo. iu East Warren street- where, on entering, he found a woman of very respectable appearance seated quietly a rocking chair in the sitting room.
