ARMIAAL FROM MATANZAS AT THIS PORT, AND ¥ HAVANA AT PUILADELDIHIA. The bark Mopang, Capt. Clark, arrived this morning from Matanzas, whence she sailed on the 12th inst. The Aurcva de Matanzas, of May 7, says :— The Diario de la Marina, in its number of Sun- day last, has the following :—* We' propose to ful- low up with constancy in communicating to our readers the information which we received from the North, relating to the evil minded persons who imagine to disturb us by an invasion of the island, incited by the prospect of gold which Cuba trea- sures vp, and by the candid expectation of mak- ing themselves masters of our estates and pro- perty. We said « few words yesterday in refer- ence to our letters and papers from New Orleans, brought by the Falcon steamer, and we have now further news by the Ohio. It appears that 500 men have left Orleans, on the pretence of going to Cali- fornia, and others have gone before to Chagres; but altogether, with all their labor, they have not been able to enlist under their banner more than from 900 to 1,000 men at most, who have ail made Chagres their rendezvous. This fact is enough to give an idea of the leaders of this cancille expedi- tion. The very idea of such an expedition, in view of ovr resources ond means of defence, is proof enovgh that none but a perfectly abandoned eet of men are those, who have gone on to Chagres, ready to plunder this or any other country, and that they are the blind instruments of wretehes who think to abe upon our troubles. But the base authors of this epeevlation will receive their just reward. Do they think we are alarmed now, when we are perfectly sequainted with the miser- able resources on Ww they rely? Vf, think our military and our marine are insuftici to protect us, do they not know that all our mili tia treops are ready to turn out, and that the people, in all parts of the island, have rushed to offer their rervices to the government, as soon as they heard of the mad Fa t The government, which de- spires profoundly these traitors and pirates, waits wil — mind to see how far they will dare to proceed. ‘This same tranquillity prevails throughout the whole island, and we are all certain that if attempt to touch upon our shores, it will only sore g for their greater destruction, and to make an ex- omple cf them, ADDITIONAL PARTICULARS.

The Captain General yesterday received dee patches frem the Spanish Consul at New Orleans, ty the efiect that he had every reason for believing that en expedition, of a very idable character, was about leaving for the purpose of invading the Island, which had the eflect of creaiing the greatest excitement. Every precention is now taken, and active preparations are going on with a view to de- feat their landing. ‘There will be a grand parade of the military here to-day in the Plaza; bat owing to the great number down with the prevail- ing epidemic, it is supposed that they will present a lees formidable appearance than is usual on such occasions.
