General GARCIA has In-received and declines to co-operate farther with that he is disgusted at the treatment he has formed General SHARTER that be is dis-the Americans, gusted at the treatment he has received and refuses to co-operate further with the American forces. This is only what was to be expected. The Cubans were ready enough to be released from the yoke of Spain, and they were exceedingly pleased when the Americans under took the task, but they do not want the Americans to go further. "You do the. fighting and we will take the spoll," was Cuba has not been handed over to them their motto, and now that Santiago de to do as they like with, they are disgusted with the Americans and refuse to co- operate further against the common enemy.
