Rumors of Insurrection—Oficial Scheming—The Captain General's Conduct in Reprieving the Political Prisoner, Approved by the Queen—The United States Consulate at Havana—The Government and the Nsw York HERatp, In a country like this, where the press ix gagged to such a degree that only those things which the governmert please are permitted tu be made public, it in a matter of great difficulty to arrive at the truth of the many alarm fing rumors which are constantly floating about. For the last few days everybody here has been on the qui vivein con, wequence of a report having got abroad that a serious di+. turbance had broken out in the Vueltade Abajo, and that General Lavallette, the commander in-chief, had gone in person to quell the insurrection; and as, doubtless, sone exaggerated account of what is supposed to Lave hap- pened, will be t-ansmitted hence to the States, I think it proper to inform you of the real circumstances which have given rise to the rumors above alluded to. During some months past, the Lieutenant Gover- wer of a western department, under the pretext of divert- ing the minds of the people, had promoted certain classes of amusement, under cover of which he carried on such an immense scheme of gambling that his wicked doings at length reached the ears of the Capta‘n General, who, upon making further inquiries iato the matter, found it nece « sary to send a commission, which has resulted in the ar- rest of the Lieutenant Governor, the Commandanté of Cavalry, and several others, yught to Havana, an fined in the Moro. all of whom have You will pecrive fon this, that there had been no disturbance of the public but, as every little circumstance, however ch cecurs in this country, is immediately eatest mystery, instead of being at rough the press, it is not te be won- dered at that these poor people should see mountains in molebills, and be frightened at mere shadows. ‘The Captain General havin yeroment at Macrid that he tions he had previously received, to the political prisovers recently’ con this place by the Military Commission 8 deepatch to the following effect:— ExckLLENt “1k—Having acquainted her Majesty of the contents of your Excellency’s letter, dated the 7th April, im which, with reference to that addressed to the Miaister of War, No. 477, informing him of the coufirmation of the sentence pronounced by the Military Commission, in the proses of the Vuelia de Abajo conspiracy, and of the Modifications which it was fouad convenient to make ia the same, rubmitting for the sovereiga approbation, in conformity to the power which, in such cares, was con ferred by the Royal order of the 13th March last past, adding, also, that, besiden the above, t the execution of two of the once made public informed the Supreme Go- id carried out the iestruc don the lives of ned to death at , bas just received he wuspension of | 4 criminals upon their arrival at the foot of the sesffold, invokiay the aa- gust name of ber Majesty, whose clemency it was hoped would be obtained for them—the Queen, ou: august lady, always ready to ase her regal prerogative in favor of those who repent their follies and implore her clemency, has been pleased to approve the suszension of tae execu tion of tbe four criminals who are senteuced to death, By royal order, I communicate this letter to your Excellency, for your ia- formation and consequent ‘effects.

I am not at all surprised thet Lord: Palmerston should have found it necessary to address the government of Spain in the harsh and threatening language which he has made use of in those despatches, because, even during the short time I have been sojourn- ing here, I have seen sufficient of the glaring rapacity o¢ the Spanish officials, in regard to the slave trade, as to have induced me speedily to come to the conclusion that 00 long ss Spain retains the Island of Cuba not all the theats or remonstrances of Lord Palmerston and the British government will have the slightest effect in, pro- ducing any change in their established policy, and the introduction of slaves from Africa will be secretly per mitted and connived at to the end of the chapter; so that the sooner the British government make up their minds to turn the vast sums of money which they annu- ally expend in their fruitless efforts to induee Spain to become honest and abide by her treaty obligations, to a more useful purpose, the better for them; because, in the words of an old Catalan well known in Hevens, and whose long experience in the affairs of Cuba entitles him to be listened to with consideration, ‘It is nonsense for the British government to expect us not to engage in ‘the slave trade. In the first place (as General Concha the other day almost let the secret esespe) it is fully tanctioned by the court at Madrid; then the Captsins- Geveral, who come out here, like the employés in the States, are generally men in needy circumstances, willing to run the risk of yellow fever and all the other ills which Europeans are liable to in this eountry, in the hope of makirg in as short a time as possible a fortune with which to return to Spain; and the temptation of two or three thousand ounces of gold—except, perhaps, with such honest men as General Concha—is ‘too great for them to resist, and once having taken the bribe it is not cifieult to follow the same course You know,” adds my old friend, ‘the more niggers imported the leis chance there is of those rascally creoles obtaining their independence, because the enormous majority of the colored over the white population will always, so long that relstive proportion exists, keep the Creoles in » and prevent them from following out their echemes for feetom and anvexation.”” This seme old pirate very coolly informed me that there were few of the expeditions to Africa that he didn’t have an interest in, and tted exceedingly that the notorious Lady Suffolk, which it is stated bas re cently landed 1 160 slaves to windward, had sailed before he had an opportunity ef taking a few shares in her ener ti that, counti 7 ‘ou, some time ago, that, counting upon the facies wile would be atoried them under atrel Canedo's government, per! more @ under the influence and protection of the ‘oficial, whose duplicity was coterious, great activity exist among the slave traders, and that many expeditioas hi been fitted out for the coast of Africa, from this and other ports of the island, as wellas from Spain he States, There people, judging correctly that, at this searon of the year, as proved to be the cate, the British cruisers would be uired to protect the fisheries, and that, of course, they nothing to fear from those of Spain—for who ever heard of a Spanish cruiser capturing a slaver—calculated their time to a | nicety, inasmuch as that, there being but one or two foreign cruisers now on this coast, several vessels, within the last eight or ten dsys, have arrived, and landed their cargoes of wretched slaves without the ‘slightest opposi- tion or molestation on the part of the Spanish officials, Upwards of 370 slaves were landed at Bailen, on the south coast, a few days ago. They were brought on shore in launebes, and marched publicly troubgh the town, to an estate a few wiles distant, called El Valle, where they were divided amongst the rarties interested in the expe- dition. My informant, who was present at Bailen whea the vessel arrived, says, that after the negroes and stores, &c , were landed, the ship was set on fire, and was still burping wher he left, the day following. It was well known that the authorit.es stationed there had received large conriderations for their connivance in this affair; and it isa matter ef public notoriety that several other cargoes are daily expected in the same neighborhood, be- longing to » Brazilian compsny. ¢ particulars of the cargo recently landed near Mariel, to the westward, as well as the 1,260 from the ship Lady Suffolk, I shall reserve fora future communication.

[Correrpondence of the Charleston Courier. Havana, June 7, 1853. The weather, which when I last wrote to you, was suf- focatingly warm, is now much re‘rethed by heavy raias, which have fallen in our vicinity. In Havana, we havo | bad but a few slight showers. ‘Ihave heard of several deaths by yellow fever, amongst persons surrounded by comfcrt, and with the means of procuriag every requi- rite attention; and these deaths have been after a very brief illness. ‘This would prognosticate rather # fatal year to new-comers. Natives of Havana, eigners who have yesided in the city over sev years, never fall sick of this fat sous from the interior often and even the people of Havana are not exenpt fcom it if they have residedout of the city for a length of time. In Matanzas, the smallpox is rather fatal. Of the cholera a the country I have heard notbiog during the last few ya. An eclipse of the sun was announced to take place at 234 P.

In the way of news of a local description, the panera speak of the bull fights—pa-t and future—of concerts ard comedies—none of which amusements offer to me any attrection; the firet on account of its barbarity, the latter on account of its mediocrity. The concerts, which are by amateurs, are very good; but the rame voices, year after year, at lastfail to attract. Some surmise azd excitement was created last week by extra trains on the ra'l-oad being ordered by the govern- ment to be rane at % woment’s warning Of coarse it was expected that they had landed.

The number of shipments from Africa have been very great, and many have already been the arrtyals here of negroes, but as your readers, in all probability, are not particularly interested in hearicg details, especially as they wight not be favorable to all their friends, I merely hint at the subject. Another subject that bas been calling much attention, is the present state of Wexizo, and the attention Spain bas taken in regard to that country.

Ata time like the present, when there is more than a probability of our being engaged in a war in the East, which will call for the most vigorous exer- tions on the part of our naval forces, it is quite natu- tal for Englishmen, seeing the wretched mismanage- ment of all matters connected with our navy, to feel very anxious as to the figure that we shall cut in the great game so soon, in all probability, to be played in the neighborhood of the Bosphorus. We do not deny that we have brave officers, and sturdy able sea- men, fully able, by their own physical and moral courage, to withstand and defeat our enemies as heretofore; but, to say the trath, we have no confl- wers—those important func evolves to see that all the ves- sels in the service are sea-worthy, well built, and - properly edapted for the duties on which they are sent, as well as to direct their movements when they arrive at the seat of war.

As Jar, however, as any geueral opposition to gover! ment measures is concerned, it cannot with any col sistency be offered by the Thorbeck party ; but it an possible that by intrigue an finesse they will succeed in getting parties iuto the chambers who will not be very nice as to the manner of effecting it, if they can only oust the ministers from office.

A railway requires for its proper management all the eyes of Argus, and all the hands and arms of Briareus, and all the wakeful- ness of an Antipater, and we are at a loss to find out the one man in whom all these advantages are com- bined, and who, whatever may be his ought to be stimulated by the fact tha’ by the cooperation of a board, every man on which is compelled to do his duty. We believe that the outcry against the stupidity of railway servants, and against their careless neglect of duty, will never cease until such pressure shall be rd-room, as will make each of its members feel that he must do his duty faithfally, or retire for those whose time and skill qualify them todo the duties for which he is incompetent, or which his other and more profitable engagements will not allow him to discharge.

District Attorney—The Mather WiCase—The Governor and Auditor at Sea—Mr, Randall's Biography of Jefferson—Free Soil At. tacks upon the President and the Herald. The post of District Attorney, after being succes- sively refused by Mr. Foster, a member of the old line demoeracy, and by Mr. Skinner, a gentleman whom neither hunkers nor barnburners would con- sentto own, has at Jast been conferred upon Samuel B. Garvin, of Onieda county, who accepts for the present. It appears that the late Congress cut down the fees and perquisites of United States attorneys to té almost nothing, and it is understood that Mr. G. intends merely to hold on his appointment until winter, in the hope that this unfortunate retrenchment may then be repealed, and a decent income restored to the office. The new incumbent is a man of fair talents and professional standing, and a devoted fol- lower of Marcy and Seymour. Hais, I believe, al- most the last of the prominent soft shells for whom it was necessary to provide at the public crib; and it is said that hereafter the barnburner applicants for office will have an exclusive attention. The leaders of the softs were few in number, but they have ar- ranged their plans admirably. By dividing the pub- lic loaf, share and share alike, with the free/soilers,the former have managed to get possession of some of the richest and best-buttered slices. Meanwhile the hunkers are being very justly punished for their con. tumacy, by getting little or nothing of the spoils. Since my last, two or three more anti-hunker post- masters have been appointed, and a powerful effort 8 making to get the Rochester post office, (the only important one left,) fora Marcy man. A very significant indication of the temper of the Assembly was obtained last week, in the Mather impeachment cage. A barnburner standing com- mittee had recommended the printing of two thou- sand copies of that gentleman’s very able vindi- cation of his official conduct; but the House, by a deeisive vote, raised the number to fifty thousand. As this was a much larger number than even the friends of the accused desired, it was reduced the next day; but asa vote of confidence in the Com- missioner, it was an emphatic act. There remains no doubt, as bad correspondent has all ae pre- dicted, that these frivolous charges will be thrown out by the House. The Judges of the Court of A eals, who are already overrun with the legitima' Ponitens before their tribunal, are not at all likely to | be called upon to meet the Senate in a High Court of Impeachments during the present summer. An amusing incident occurred at one of our piers a short time since. Our excellent Governor, in imi- tation of the great and wise Caliph Haroun Alra- schid, attended by his faithful Vizier, Mr. Auditor Newell, of ultra barnburner notoriety, has been in the habit, since the opening of navigation, of peram- bulating about the canal ‘in and docks, and con- versing freely with the boatmen and ‘longshoremen. | The object of his Excellency spears to have been to disabuse the minds of the ‘‘canallers” of the mistaken impr entertained by them, that anderbilt, Bristol, and otlrer hunker Senators, were true friends of the public works, and to point triumphantly to Messrs. Newell, West and Loomis, as the only well-meaning and honest aif tors of that question. A few days since, the Caliph and his faithful friend Gioffar seated themselves com- fortably upon the deck of a eanal boat at one of the | piers, and commenced Cae a the simple mind | of, its solitary “hand” upon the rival plans for en- largement. “While the boatman listened with o) ears, however, some malicious hunker, envious of his | felicity, crept up and quietly cast off the rope; so that in a moment the two found themselves floating | off into the Hudson river. The canal boatmen omnia about the dock set up a in Bet laughter, while bis Excelleney and his factotum begged, with outstretched hands, for deliverance. But no aid was offered, and the helpless craft drifted slowly past the city, with a fair prospect of a voyage to the Over- slaugh. When opposite the lower ferry, however, the b’hoys at last took compassion upon the unwil- ling wcyageurs, who by this time had been attacked with sea-sickness, and @ row-boat landed them safely, for a dollar a piece, in the democratic and Hibernian | precincts of the. First ward. The Governor and | Auditor are not the firet politicians who have been made victims of “the raging canawl.” The literary world is looking with some interest | for the long-promised ‘Life of Thomas Jefferson,” now in course of preparation by Hon. H. 8. Randall, our worthy Secretary of State. This gentleman has ; been for some years engaged on the work, having contracted with the publishing house of Derby & Co., at Aubuin, to write a readable and popular biogra- phy of the great statesman. The publishers, with creditable liberality, sent Mr. R. to Virginia, where he procured, in the neighborhood of Monticello, informa- ion of a very amusing and remarkable kind, con- cerning the early life and childish adventures of the author of the Declaration, many of which he oeca- sionally relates, in his peculiar style, to the immense entertainment of a select circle. This book is ex- pected to be forthcoming in the winter, as the Secre- tary will not be a candidate for re-election, and will be énabled, after his retirement from his present official position, to devote ample time and attention in foo it for the press. As Mr. R. is a distin- guished anti-slavery man, and warmly attached to the Buffalo platform, the free soilers look to his vol- umes for an extended disquisition upon the disputed authorship of the Ordinance of 1787. The Albany Atlas—the Van Buren organ in this city—has, for the first time in yeara, presumed of late to wag its insignificant tongue against the Heraup. A few days since it termed that paper “a cower of dis- cord in the democratic ranks.” And yet, the same consistent sheet, a week or two back, bitterly as- sailed General Pierce for advising with Mr. Peck- ham, the democratic member of Congress from this district, relative to the choice of Postmaster in this city. Such is the way the free soilers support the administration when they. tail to receive all the patronage. The Boston Anti-Slavery Convention. From the Cumberland (Md.) ‘Telegrap, June 9.) The Anti-slavery Convention, which met in Boston on the 25th ult., continued in session two days. The proceedings are published entire inthe New York HeRratp, from which we make the fellowing extract for the edification of our readers:— Mr. Garrison introduced a “colored brother,” in the person of a huge negro, named Jacob Mitchell, ‘who pro- ceeded to. ma very funny spsech. He said he had been a slave, was owned by an Englishman, when he died, by a lady, and finally bought his freedom.’ He wens to work fo get his family out of bondage. He was now tbroen upon Boston, he said. “I feei the pangs of gow!- ing through my system, but my heart loves the anti tlavery cause. Idon’t want to marry your daughters (laughter); I don’t want to bs your lawyer (laughter and applause from the galleries): I don’t want to ait in your parlors; but I want the Lord to open hares hearts, 60 you may all give me twenty-five cents apiece to get my wife ard children out of bondage, so the Lord my say to you, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant,’ when you meet him on the great getting up morning.” And ‘amid tho most uproarious laughter Jacob took his hat around among the faithful aud wade his collection. Mr. Garrison mace tome additions to Jacob's story, sry- ing that there was a Mrs. Jacob and seven children, who, last Chiistmas, attempted to escape from Maryland iato Catada. After great euffering they reached Bedford, Pennsylvania, where they were betrayed by a colored Me- thodirt preacker. (Cries of “‘sbame.’’) ae of the girls had ber toes frosted so badly that two of them came off. (Sentation; snd reveral gentlemen were observed .to put their herds in their pockets, and keep them there.) It will be seen that Jacob has been cutting quite a figure amongst his white and black brethren in the modern Athens. We have no doubt his presgnce was regarded as quite an accession to that city, and if so, we Cg a them very heartily—for they are welccme to him. The history of Jacob, we have no doubt, will be quite interesting, and we farnish it for the benefit of our Northern friends. Jacob was owned by William Lynn, now deceased, to whom he was sold until he was twenty-eight years of age, when he became tree. He has had sion of his family for about twelve years. They belonged to Mr. Lynn’s mother. About five years ago Mr. J. G. Lynn proposed to Jacob that if he de- sired to purcbare his family, numbering some seven or eight in all, he would sell them to him; Jacob said he would pay two thousand dollars for them. This was a generous offer on Jacob's part, but was declined by Mr. Lynn, who agreed that Jacob should have his family at the sum of $800, and have his own time to pay it in, and in as small sums as $5, $10, or $15, or even at $1 a time. Three years elapred, and not one cent did he pay. At the expiration of that time Jacob desi know whether he could still have his family for the eight hundred dollars, and was answered that he could. Two years more pasecd away, and yet Ja- cob never paid one dime. Last winter, notwith- standing al the kindness and indulgence shown him, the fellow was ungrateful enough to attempt to steal his whole family. The night was intensely cold, but it had nd effect on his hardened nature. He conducted his little children through the snow out of the State, wailing piteously with the cold. Several of them were considerably frost bitten. This is the Jacob Mitchell who is now playing upon the een ies of his Northern brethren. He is a keen, shrewd negro, and a Bethelite Pees ay by profes- sion, and we hope he will receive encouragement from “ the atheistical, pantheistical, abolitionist, and eccentric geniuses of New England,” who met to hold their orgies to celebrate the anniversary of the Anti-Slavery Society. If they have ope Posed foe sympathy with the condition of the slave, or the in- stitution of slavery, they should show it in a less ob- Palas nag | form; for allied as it is with contempt for the religion of God and all holy things, it can never succeed, and must result in ri ie the fet- ters still more firmly around their limbs.
