@UBA IN DANGER. TRE NEW REVOLUTION. ORDER OF THE LOWE STAR. Highly Interesting and Importaat Documents. The Order ef the Lone Star. Po per the N. Y. Courier and Enquirer. Aug. 19. me ; 3 “ 7 isa well organized and wide spread secret political Lapalnaioes ‘known as the Order of the Lone Star. Numerous divisions of this order ure established all over the country. In our own city and neighbor- ood there are some seven or oi ght divisions, em- bracing soveral thousands of members, who havo all bound aelves te march, at # moment’s waraing, to Cuba. Eminent soldi murchauts, physicians, Tay editors, and even divines. are active an influential members of this order aod its coffers are y filling with gold. Thinkiog that some ac- count of this association migh« prove interesting to our readers, considering the prevwnt atate of affairs, we have procured 4 brief aud conoise history of sho origin, progress, and objects of the Order of the Lone » written by José Sanches Yenage, by the authority of the President of th Geaeral Assemb!; of the Order, and present our readers with a fair translation of it. The constitution of the order shall Appear as soon as possible. ORIGIN, PROGRESS AND,OBJECTS OF THE ORDER OF THE LONE STAR [Translated from the Spani+h.] The insurrection that was organized by General Don Narciso Lopez, at Trinidad snd Cienfuegos, and which was discovered by the government in July, 1848; the expedition of Round Islaud, pro- ared by Loper, by means of funds supplied by the Bubane, and connected with the patriots resident upon the island, in August. 1619; that of Cardenas, in May, 1850, to which the Spanish guard of Car- denas was joined ; that of tho Cleopatra, prepared by #4, in April,,1851, by means of funds sent from Cul a) the insurrection of Puerto Principe and Trinidad, were public deeds which have borne witness to the revolution of Cuba, and which bent Lopez as the chief of the Cuban pa- triots. Prolific of deeds and glory, and at tho samo time unfortunate for Cubs, has been the year of our Lord 1851. In April, the Cleopatra expedition, which was to have been the nucleus of the opera- tions in Cuba, when upon the point of sailing, was discovered and dispersed by the bave betrayal of an infamous traitor. The fourth of July. desperation obliged the Cubans to raise the ory of liverty at Puerto Principe; the 24th of the same month, the citixens of Trinidad answered the movement of the patriots of Camaguey; the 12th of Au- gust the fermidable Lopez landed upoa the shores of Cuba with four hundred valiant men; that very on the blood was shed, on tho scaffold, of the hero of San Carlos (Aguero) and four of his comrades; on the 18th, Armenteros and ten more were immolated to the fury of despotism Meanwhile the hosts of the Spanish army ran away, frightened, before the unconquerable Lopes, aban- doning ther wounded general, und lea¢ing the soil eovered with corpees. In other places, great num- bers of patriots, who came ready to unite themselves to the standard of liberty, when about to cross the ome lines, were assassinated and cruelly mur- dered by those who ran away shamefally in the field ofbattle. At last the hurricane came with fury, to putanend to the brave career ot Loper and his comrades, disarming them, avd leaving them de- fenoeless in tho hands of their barbarous enemies The Ist of September, upon a soaffold erected b despotism, was seen a hero, who. placing his confi- dence in Ged, said, ‘ ad death shall not change the destinies of Cuba. Adieu, my dear Cuba, I die for you? Thus he ot and his spirit soared above, and rose up to Heaven That hero was Lope: the animous Lopez, who died. The whole island of Cuba was shaken, and the light of a Lone Star rose above the horizon npon the Queen of tho Antilles, peneirating the shades of dospotism, and lighting the way of union, courage and valor, which can conduce to the triumph ot liberty. Before the departure of Lopez from New Orleans, he received the pledges of several respectable per- sons to assist the expedition Encouraged by these eer, Loper started for the islaad. te fulfil the uty that was assigned to him as chief, as man, and as . Meanwhile, those persons who remained behind, formed a committee to carry out the fulfil- mont of picinpnege They collected togother the necessary ‘eria! id a powerful auxiliary expe- dition was d, e which, doubtless, would have nsured the triumph of liberty in Cuba ; but, at the moment of is Sets anchor, the futal news arrived that Lopez died upon the scaffold. and that the revolution was sto) f These events followed so rapidly, one after the ether, that timo was not allowed for the promised reinforcements, and Lopez, defeared by the elements, sealed by his death his sacred coveannt to protect his dearest Cuba The fussillade aod mutilation of the fifty-one Americans under the walls of the Castle of Atares gave solemnity to the promises made om their part, and, at the came time, Aguero, Araen- terog. and some others, martyrs of liberty, proclaimed the revolution from the scaffold thus re-affirming the covenant entered into by Lopez Witnesses, else, ef the revolution in Cuba, and of the authority of Lopez to invoke the aid of free men in favor of unhappy Cuba, are the many Cuban victims who Hill the Spanish prisons and fortresses and the many who now eat the bread of exile in the United States, in Mexico, Venezuela and Franee The revolution of Cuba was then an unquestion- able fact, and that Lopez was the recognized chief of the Cuban patriots does not admit of the least ‘doubt. In this manner we have viodisated the ex- peditions against the colonial government of Cuba, and freed ourselves from the imputation of piracy which the servants of despotiem desire to attach to our operations, influencing, not a little, ignorant men. Lopez was recognized before the war as tho chief of the revolution of Cuba, and the covenants entered into by him we looked upon as having been entered into by Cuba. ‘ In view of acts so public and go notorious, while ‘the hearts of the murdered victims yet palpitated, ‘the friends of liberty met together to take those Measures necessary for the redemption of Pp mises of 5 and the institution of the * Order the Lene Star” was the result of their consulta- tions. The death of Lopez, and the sup ion of tho insurrections of Puerto Principe and Trinidad, put ‘@ period to the revolution. It was not considered practicable or legal to re-commence the struggle by means of an Americanexpedition Consequently, the “Lone Star” was dedicated te perfect and spread its organization, gathering all the elements and meces- Sary resources, for the assistance of all enslaved but valorous people, who may raise the cry of independ- nce. A constitution was adopted, having for its gene- ral basis “‘the extension of the area of liberty,”” and the first division of tho ‘Order of the Lone Star” ‘was instituted im New Orleans. Soon others, and others, were instituted, until now there exist over fifty divisions, in eight or ten States of the Union, amongst them the Cuban_ division, ‘La Union,” in the city of New York. The members number more than fifteen thousand; every one of thei sworn to help and contribute to whatever enterprize the or- der may undertake; obliged to assist in their own rsons, or to fill their plaee with another, when he moment of action arrives. Until aow we havo only songht to incorporate those men most useful, onaccount of their knowledge and virtues; and many distinguished men belong to this order, some mili and some civil. : By looking over the constitution, the organiza, tion, charactor and power of the order will be easily recognized. By it can be seen that each member must pay at least three dollars for his initiation, five dollars for the second degree, and five dollars fo the third, besides four shillings monthly dues; but early all, if not all. the divisions have raisod the ecale of dues. As soon as three divisions sexist in any State, a general assembly is formed, composed of two members of each division, elected by ballot These general assemblies are authorized to pass such by-laws and Dh toe as they may jadge conveni- ent for the good and increase of the order. Th supreme council is composed of two members from cach general assembly, elected by themselves, which is charged with the general interests of the order. This council has power to dispose ef the funds, to Jevy contributions, if itis deemed necessary, to name officers and agents, and to act as umpire in all dis- putes of grave moment which occur In this manner we are gathoring together the most honorable persons, to place them at the head of affairs, and the management of tho enterprise will correspond to the principles and objects of this noble and powerfal institution. Who saa believe that this is a piratical institution, incitegonly by a thirst of vengeance? Who can beliows TMAt illus- irious men of this powerful republic, which shows to the world a perpetual example of justice, should mysteriously meet together to conepire against the interests and feelings of an unhappy people ? Many, however, have appeared to believe that the motive which gave origin to and which moves the Order of the Lone Star, is the desire to “he the American blood basoly shed in Cuba; that its object is to invade and raat Cubs, if it rhould be necessary, usurping ell the international rights, 2nd cering nothing for the interests of the country. This isan absurd and malicious idea, respec by the enemies of the liberty of Cuba tis enough to that many Cubans are incorporated with the be and co-operate with its plens; and, moreover, uré interested in the happiness and welfare of their country, thas giving tho lie to their malign detrac- tors. "The origin of the order, a4 above explained, was ® compact entered into by lopen Its object is the extension of the aroa of |i ro of berty, without refer- | sa and glo with e; Se ot seize iy humble heads to oooupy the ich belongs to thee among the people of The Fillibusters again at Work. (From the National Intelligencer August 28.) ‘Tho tardiness with whivh the laws of the United States against violations of tho law of nations aad of our own country have thus far beem enforced by the judicial tribunals before which persons have been arraigned to answer for thoir misdeeds in this reapect—tho impunity, in a word, which such out- rages against the ja ve hitherto ox, ood— seems to have encouraged the conspirators against the peace of their own country as well as chat of the Spanish dominions, to renew their intrigues tending to the same ines as last year inveigiod so many improvident and misguided youog men te slavory and to death. For the present, wealniog from any comment of our own upon such proceed- ings, we shall only ask the attention of our readers to the following notices of this subject by our cea- temporaries:— From the New York Express ] The exoiting intelligence from Havana, received by the Crescent City, has produced a profound sen- sation among the Cabans rositent in tnis city, and a large class of citizens, who have frequent com- mercial intercourse with the ‘‘ Gem of the Aatilles.”” ‘The so called Cuban Junta, whose heads are under- stood to have planned the ill-starred Lopes oxpodi- tion, will probably be convoked again, aud ou ati hands it is more than likely a vigorous and renewed attempt will bo made to stir up anew the slumber- ing elemonts of rebellion. We already bear much of certain “secret publications,” ** confidential circulars,” and patriotic proaunctamentos ome- nating from whom nobody sooma ciearly to kao doing the desired work at Havana Hence the au merous arrests aud imprigonments of which we are advised. These being the facts in the case, it is well to conclude at once that the Lopez tragedy is to be played over again. ‘‘ The fools are uot all dead yet,” and we have no doubt enough of them may be found, here and there, to try over again the pitia- ble experiment ef makivg a rebellion in a country where there are no rebeis—a republic where thero are no republicans. They do se now with their eyes open to the consequences. The Moro Castle, tue garrote, and the square of Abrato pant for new victims, and more victims they will have, if the warning voice of Crittenden and his companions is not heard by the infatuated enthusiasts who still bug the dolusion that Cuban independence is only to be achieved by a foreign invasion. (From the Philadelphia Ledger.] cuba.

It is te be hoped that we have heard the last of Cuban invasions. It is to bo hoped so, because our goverament, being amply forewarn- ed, will exorcise greater. vigilance, and omploy atronger provontive means; because our people are more deeply sensible of the wrong, the mischief, and the folly of treading over national obligations to propagate liberty in other lauds by fire and sword; and because the Cubans themselves have far botter learned thas if they would be froo ““thom- selves must striko the blow.” The struggle sooner or later will como. Wo may invoke it, er wo may deprecate it; but it is alike inevitable. It is the part of our countrymen not to be actors in it, but apeetatore of it- otators: and anxious in- dved, for politically imterested as they aro im the tesult, they cannot and should not bo otherwise. So far as depends upon us they shall not bo without the means of knowing tho magnitude of its preps- rations and the rate of its approach.

CONSTITUTION OF THE “ORDER OF THB LONE STAR.” The following is tie constitution of the “Order of the Loue Star,” to which wo alluded a day or two sinoe im the Courter & Hnquerer. It was adopted at the city of Lafayette, (La.,) in 1851, and waa re- vieed by ® committee, appeinted by tho parent divi sion of the order ia that ry oomposed of the fol Jowing Repene De J. V. Wrea, John B. Cotton A.W. Jourdan, Dr. Fred. H Knapp, Wm. Wren, Alexander Walker, O. Browa, R. B. Stille, J. L. Carman, D. Mitchell, W. W. Vaught, Wm. Emer- son, Dr. J. S.Oaulden, Josso Gillmere. ee motto of the order is “ Fbrts of fideli nil diffi- ctle.” PREAMBLE. We, the undersigned, mombers of tho “Order of the Lone Star,” desirous @f extending the area of liberty, and believing that liberty and republican: ism are essontial to tho happiness ef man, and to the full developmont of his virtues and intelligence, and that it 13 the duty of all men to aid others to the extent of their ability in the pursuit of happi- neas—regarding it as ono of the first duties of Ame- rican republicans to endeavor, by all lawful and proper meana, to diffuse throughout the world the prinoiples of liberty and Dabdotalec nest as transmit ted to them by their ancestors—to comfort and aid the work, to cheer and sypathize with the oppressed scattered throughout the count These attempts to excite an odium against the local government of Cuba are but the continued efforts of interested par- ties in this ovuntry, whose falsifications on a recent occasion led astray so many of our countrymen, and brought a number to a sudden and terrible end. That catastrophe is not yet forgotten, and it will be @ vain attempt to create any practical sympathy in this country again, till the Cubans themselves show, by ono bold show at least, that they have the cou rage to defend their own liberties, and to resist tho oppression of their governmental masters. From the Baltimore Cli of Saturday.) We learn from New York that nearly all the prominent managers of the Cuban expedition are now in that city—not the fighting mon, but those whose heads planned the invasion, and whose purses id the ex) . It is a faot that the Junta hasnever een dissolved, as was reported when the disastrous regult of the % foray was known. Should the néxt steamor advise us of a continuance of the ar- rests and consequent excitement in Havana, de- end upon it, there will be more work on and for the United States Marshal in the New York district. (From the New york Commercial Advertiser.) MATTERS IN CUBA. The Journal of Commerce has the following in- formation from ‘a gentleman from Havana :”— On the Sth instant fifteen persons, all Creoles, were arrested in that city, of whom ten are males aud five females. In their dwellings were discov- ered 10,000 cartridges, twelve demijuhns of powder, aud twenty arrobes (800 Ibs ) of lead. On the 7th the arrested were examined, and three of them sent to the Cabanas fortification. During the week onding August 14th a good many young men were arrested, and others invited to go to Spain. They will be permitted to return when they obtain a diploma of loyalty. These events created quite a stir in the government offices, and evidence of alarm. he J also gives extracts from No. 3 of La Voz del Pueblo, which, it is alleged, is printed and circulated in the island of Cuba. We should require very direct and compete evidence that such r is printed and circulated there before quot 3 its columns, and this for two yd reagons First, that accounte of the tyranny and watchfulness of the government, even to exercising a *‘ police aurveillance over every Creole family,” being true, the publishers of such # paper could not escape de tection. The thing is a moral impossibility. Scoond that the morning press of this city was imposed upon in just such a matter prior to the Lepez invasion. They simultaneeusly published certain alleged revo- lutionary pronunciamentos, said to be extensively circulated and mysteriously posted up on various places in Cuba, profucing such documents with an editorial TT eet of course, by the concocters of the forgery—declaring that they had respectively seen the originals of said false docu- ments, when the fact subsequently came out that the pay were tho invention of certain partios in New York, and by no meane o1 ating in Cuba The parties to that barefaced fraud had the cunning to take copies of these documents to the press on Sunday evening, when probably ery responsible editor was absent from his sanctum. The fac simile character of the simultaneous publication, editorial paragraph included, of course pnt evening papers on their guard, and it was for us to avoid falling into the same error, but it destroyed our confidenc; in all representations about revolutionary papet published in Cuba. From the New York Courierand Enquiror, Aug 27.] fe submit to our readers this morning the con- stitution of he ‘* Order of the Lone Star”—a docu- ment which has never before been made public. As the basis of a secret organization which now stretches over the whole country, and which com- prises a very considerable amount of wealth, talent, and influence, it deserves to be examined with at- tention. Whether it is to be commended or eon- demred, it is one of the groat agencies of the day, and it cannot be ignored. We have of late given our readers much peculiar information respectin; the movements towards revolutionizing Cuba, aad, in all likelihood, we shall continue so to do. We give the information because we know it to be true, and believe it to be important. But the fact of being the first medium of its becoming public has, in a measure, exposed us to misapprehension. Here it is charged that we are a secret ally, and there that we are a secret spy in tho fillibuster camp; here that we are working for despotism, and there that we are working for revolntion. Anam- biguous position like this is what this paper does not covet ; it isevery way foreign to its character. We therefore take pleasure in assuring our anxious cotewporaries that the position of the Courier and Enquirer upon this Cuban question remains entirely unchanged. Its ions and sentiments two years and one year ago, in reference to this subj are without sbatement or qualification, its opinions and sentiments now. On this point, it shall not be its fault if it is not understood. That oppression exists in Cuba, it would be brazen effrontery to deny Oppression has nlways existed there since Spain first ruled the island Tastead of becoming ameliorated by time, it exists there to- day ina more grievous form than ever This results from two causes—first, the peculiarly evil character of the present Governor General, who delights ina tyranny which enables him to drive tay Africaa slave trade without let or hindrance—and secondly, the necessity of employing a system of repression commensurate in its severity to the vastly increased discontent of the population The rigors of the Spanish F Abin in Caba are necessary for its own self preservation, and they will never be mate- rially relaxed solong as that government continues. But authority which has to sustain itself by crush- ing its subjects into the dust deserves to fall, and the Cubans thomselves are clearly justifiable in at- tempting to overthrow it Se far as regards the in- tringie justice of the matter, the sympathies of all true Americans must be with the resistants. But there is another great point to be considered by the is sn evil, would not its violent overturn bring greater evils in its train? A successful rebellion could end Se in independence. From a variety of causes, and chief of all from the preponderance of slave popul , independence would pny lead to a convection of some sort with one of the power- ful nations. That nation could only be ours; first, because the Cuban people would not wish it to be otherwise; and second, because the Ameriean people could not permit it to be otherwise. But no con- nection could be formed with ihe United Statos ex t by becoming an integral portion of thom people of this country. Though Cuban oppression | —have, as a means of carrying into effect those principles and objects, organized thomselves into ‘The Order of the Lone Star,” and do ordain and eatablish the following:— CONSTITUTION.

Furwen.en T. J. De Yamrerr, L. D. J. Moore. MontGomery, 23d August, 1862. Aldermanic Interference. New York, August 26, 1862. James Gornon Bennxrt, Eig :— Dear Sir—In the Henry of this morning I finda lergthy article headed ‘* Aldermanic Interference,” aud purporting to emanate from the pen of William J. Peck, Esq., Alderman of tho Twentioth ward, which reflects in strong terms against my character as a public officer, and designed to place me in rather an unenviable position in society. 1 presume that it is not necessary for me to inform your numerous readers of the ground upon which this manifesto of the gentleman is based; they’are already aware that I refused to discharge a prisoner on his order, and for so doing I have subjected my- self not only to his anathema, but have drawn down upon my devoted head a beautiful and well ar- ranged piece of Billingsgate, which ought to im- mortalize the author as a man of letters. I would have treated the matter with silent con- tempt, and left the case in the hands of a discerning public, but for the fact that there are gross misre- presentations and untrue statements ‘in the article |: alluded to, which need to be corrected, in order to place the subject in its proper light. And first, ‘allow me to say, that the statement in relation to imy anxiety to have. tM peony weet and of the ¢fforts put forth by me to accomplish that ob- ject, are wholly untrue: I neither went to, nor sent for, Alderman Denman, or knew that the aid of ‘the Aldqrman of the Twentieth ward had beon .in- voked, until one o’clook that night, when I received an order from the last namied gentleman to discharge McDermot. The article being thus based upon an assumed state of facts which never had an existence, as & matter of course its premises are untenable, and ita conclusions errsneous. - That interested parties may have misrepresented the case to Ald. Peck, and that he acted in good faith in giving the dischaego, I do not deny ; but I think that he should at the same time have taken some pains to ascertain whether their ropresonta- tions were correct or not, before acting upon them. That the case of McDermot was not so frivolous as it is represented to be, will appear from the fact that Judge Stewart considered it of sufficient magnitude to held the prisoner to bail in the sum of $3,000, to appear and answer the charge. ‘he artiole alluded to in the Heracp, and the ono in the Zrtiwme, are so different, that it is very dif- ficult te reply to both in one communication. How- ever, suffice it to say that | have not sought for popularity, or tried to make any capital at the ex- pense of Ald. Peck, as I always entertained the highest respect for him, aud had reason to beliove that this feeling was reciprocated; and I am of the opivion that he never would have entered into a newspaper controversy with such gross sourrillity, had it uot becn for the influenee of a certain qaon- dom lawyer and a few satellites that rev e arguod him in their political orbit. Iwill not, however, either disgrace myeelf, or use your valuable columns, hy stooping to lyze the pointless sarcssms of my learned friend or his talented amanuonsis On Tuesday night a gentleman named Waadoll, aclerk in the employ ot Alderman Peck, came to me and requested me to give bim a copy of the oischarge sent to mein the case of McDermot. I told him tbat uld not give it to him, as the do- coment was destroyed. After some further conver- sation he left. Yeu may therefore judge of my sur- prise ou seeing in public print # document purport- | ing to be a verbatim copy of the destroyed order. | Leonelude, therefore, that it must be stereotyped in the Alderman’s brain, although, in this instance, | acoording to the best of my knowledge and belief, the copy is different from the phrasoology used in | the original; however, | trast that such a reten- powered to establish Divisions anywhere, whon so called upon by seven persons, and grant thom a | charter for the same. He is also empowored to de- legate said authority of establishing Divisions, to any preeiding officer é In cave of absenco or siekners of tho president, the viee president shall be clothed with his powers and perform his duties. ae In cases of emergency, section 2d of Article V., | of this constitution, may be suspended by dispensa- tion of the president of the General Assembly.
