Kennedy, the Sesretary of tho Navy, has ordered Capt. Porter, of the Crescent City, to repair to Washington, to give an account of his conduct to the government of Cuba in the recent transactions at Havana. The President and Cabinet have had the mat- ter under consideration, at the request of the Spanish Minister, M. Calderon de la Barca, and it ia surmised that our government has disapproved the conduct of Capt. Porter, and will withdraw him from the Crescent City, and order him to sea directly. Mr. Kennedy, the new Secretary, is supposed to be more friendly to the present government of Cuba than the Creoles generally are—and the President is a good, easy man, and lets his Secretaries, toa certain extent, do as they please occasionally, as he did in the case of guano and codfish.
