but the Chevalier’s connection with us was ‘only an illusion of theirs after all. He is quite able to take care of himself, and deserves their notice upon his own merits. ‘The Heraxp goes ahead in its own way, and pays no attention to its envious competitors end critics. It has the largest circulation, the greatest advertising, the fullest and earliest news, and the most genial spirit of any news- ‘paper in the world. It understands its duties and its responsibilities, and is equal to them. ‘It supports the government, aga intends to aid it, as it has always done, in restoring the Union ‘to its integrity and defeating the intrigues of European politicians. By this time next year -we shall have the Union as good as new, and shall then drive the European armies from Mexico. What we shall do next we will an- nounce hereafter; but in the future, as in the _past and present, we shall disregard all praise and blame as long as we are sure we are right and keep going ahead. Tux InpErENDENcE ov Mexico.—The present mttitude of Mexico challenges the admiration of the world, She is assailed by the two greatest of the maritime Powers of Europe, and by the mother country, which formerly held her in Bubjection. There can be now little doubt that the object of those European Powers is to over- ‘t'wow the independence of Mexico, to erect a anonarehy on the ruins of democratic institu- tions, and place onthe throne some European prince. Already the house of Hapsburg has ‘deen approached on the subject, though with Dnt indifferent success. and we suppose the search for a European king for the halls of Montezuma will be continued till an adven- turer is found. But the great Powers may as well save them. welvesdhe ffouble. Mexico is able to take care of herself. We have no doubt that she will be able to maintain her position against any force that will ever be brought against her from "Hurope; and if she should not, in six months from date we will lend her a helping hand, and cul upon the South to cave in and unite with ‘us at once to save the continent from Europesn intervention; for it is Mexico’s turn to-day, ‘ut it will be tRe turn of the South to-morrow. ‘Even should the rebel confederacy succeed 3 finally establishing its independence against the arms of the North, it will then have to wage e@nother war for national life against one or more of the Powers of Europe. Its poor privi- dege is iike that of Ulysses in the cave of the Cyclops—to be devoured last. Let the South, therefore, be warned by the assault on the in- dependence of Mexico, and let it return to its allegiance to that Union in which alone it can ‘find safety and security against the conspiracies of crowned heads, and let it join hands with the ‘North in sweeping from the soil every vestige of foreign sway.

Explosion of a Sawyer Gun—Tweo Men Killed on the Spot, Two Severely and About Ten Lightly Injured. OUR NEWPORT NEWS CORRESPONDENCE. Canp Butuan, Newrort News, Va., Feb. 12, 1862. Our camp is in mourning to-day. A terrible accident occurred yesterday afternoon, at half-past five o'clock, by which two men were instantly killed, two wore dau” gerovsly wounded, and @ numbor received injuries of a less serious nature. Tho particulars of the catastrophe are about as follows:—The threo gentlemen composing the Now York ‘Allotment Commission,” after having finished their labors with the first regiment, took a walk around camp to inspect the fortifications. General Mavs. field, who wished to show thom the range of our guas, ordered one of the columbiads and the Sawyer gun to be fired. One shot was fired by the former and two by the latter, and, at the last shot of the Sawyer, it burs, with a terrific report, instantly killing two and wound. ing about a dozen more or less severely. Large pieces ofthe gun were thrown back with immonse force; one piece, part of the bridge, weighing over half a ton, being thrown toa height of forty feet, and falling at a distance of one hundred and fifty fost, near the great flagstaff. It is a wonder to every one that no more were killed and injured. Had the embankment around the gun not been 80 high, causing the larger pieces to be embeddod in it, the loss of life must have been terrible, for there were not less than fifteen hundred men standing at the time within fifty feet of the aceno of the accident. General Mansfield had a most miraculous escape; the cannoncer right in front of hinf was killed on the spot, | while Major Stetson, of the Eleventh “New York, who stood back of him, was wounded in the.faco and hand. Those who stood on the south side of the gun were stunned by the report, and nearly blown off their feet; the shock was terrific, and the gravel and earth that flew around severely beat the faces of all in the immediate vicinity, Lieutenant Cojone! Naumsn and First Lieuten_ ant Sanger, of the First artillery, who directod the work- ing of the guns, also had a very narrow escape. ‘Tho squad doing service at the Sawyer gun vas de- tailed from the Twenty-ninth Mass jusetts rogiment, end was under the immediate com of Lieutenant John Smith, of Company I. ‘The following is a list of THE KILLED. 1, Charles E. Jones, of Company D, Twenty ninth Mas- sachusetts Volunteers. He belonged tothe gun squad, and was killed right in front of General Mansfield. The gun carriage struck him on the hoad, transforming ig into one frightful nndistinguishable mass, and ulso break- ing his left arm. He was a native of New York city, and worked as a gilder ina glass factory in Sandwich, Massa- chusetts, at the time the war broke out. He was twenty years of age, and bore an excellent character asa man anda solder. * 2, James W. Sheppard, of Company B, same regiment. Ho was merely aspectator, and waa killed by a piece of the bridge, weighing about fifty pounds, that fell some forty feet from the place of explosion. When the gun burst, he commenced running, although warned to stand still by his commander, Captain Wilson. Had he remained at the place where he first stood he would have oscaped unhurt. Sheppard belonged to Lowell, Mass.,and was a nouse carpenter by trade; he was a great favorite with all who knew him, and was always willing to oblige any one to the best of his ability. He was twenty-four years of ago,and was married in Lowell the very day of his en- listment. He had, the day before yesterday, got afur- Jough made out by his captain to go home and visit his wife, and it only wanted the General's signature. Now) alas! his furlough has been signed by a highor Powor, and his young wife will wait in vain to bear again the cherizhed voice; only the still, pale face will romind her of him, whom she expected so soon to see in all the health and joy of blooming manhood, THE WOUNDED. 1. William W. Boman, of Company I, samo regiment. ‘He was also a canuoneer, and suffers from a severe de- pression of the skull. He is not in bis right mind, and moans piteously most of the time. Although his case is very critical, still the surgeons say that all chances of nis Tocovery are not gone. 2. Seth W. Paty, of Company E, same regiment, was struck by the gun carriage on the chest, and would no doubt have died if he bad uot possessed a vory strong constitution. He has three ribs broken, but fortunately the lungs do not seem to be injured. The chances of his recovery are good. 3. A saflor belonging to the United States sloop-of-war Cumberland sustained a severe contusion of the left oye, which probably will deprive him of the use of it. He was at once taken on board of his ship by his comrades. 4. John F, Hall, of Company E, Twenty-ninth Massa- chusetts Volunteers, was the guoner of the squad. His left arm was cut, but not severely, and his face some. what burned by powder. 5. George Sullivan, of Company I, same regiment, © cannoneer, had his face burned Ly powder; bis case, as all the following ones, is not dangerous. 6. Lieutenant John Smith, same company and rogi. ment, and commander of the gun squad, was wounded by a small piece of tron entering his leg; it was extracted last night by Dr. Brown, surgeon of the regiment, and this morning he is doing well. Major Stetson, of the Eleventh New York, recoived a cut under the eye, and was wounded in the finger bya splinter of iron. Captain Dyer, Assistant Adjutant Gene- ral; Captain Gaebel, of Company A, Seventh New York Volunteers; Captain Maguire, of Company G;Second New York Volunteers, and several others, wore slightly wounded in the face by the gravel that was scattered around by the explosion, None of tho ensos, however, are of any importance, except the two first named. ‘The body of Sheppard will be sent home to-day by Adams’ Express Company. Jones will be buried this afternoon at the graveyard outside of our camp, with alt military honors. ‘This accident has cast @ gloom of sadness over our camp. In all directions men can bo seen standing in groups discussing the matter and expressing their sym pathy for the sufferers. Even the glorious nows from the Burnsido expedition is pot sufiicient to cheer the sorrow- ful faces; but such is life, and especially life in camp— — sorrow follow in as quick succession as day and night. Genoral Mansfield has ordered a board of inquiry to convene this morning, under the presidency of Lieutenant lone! Nauman, of the First artillery, for the purpose of exainining into the causes that lod to the explosion of the gun. At present tho opinions are varied: some think the ox!remely high elevation (twenty-nine degrees) was the ¢.°¢; others think the materia! of the gun was defective; overs, again, that the fault laid in the shell. Whatever the real cause may be, the board will make @ close ex- antination, and Iwill, if possible, send ® copy of their report.

The Columbia passed the Baltic the same evening at seven o'clock, having in tow a steainer proba- bly disabled. The captain of the lightship reported nothing new. Among tho passengers by tho Columbia is Captain Paimer, late in command of the United States steamer Iroquois, who proceeds immediately to Washington. It was well known at Havana and St. Thomas that, under the circumstances, it was impossible for Captain Palmer to have prevented the escape of the Sumter from Marti- nique, and all the stories about his want of zeal and loyalty are base fabrications, and were received with great indignation by those who knew the history of the case.

According to all appearances and rumors, wo shall s00n, too soon, lose our present excellent and popular Captain General and his amiable wife. In fact, they have oommenged giving souvenirs to their friends, which I suppose to bo an infallible sign of approaching depar, ture, Ihave seona beautiful ring which the Countess gave to Mr. Cobner, of the firmof Fredericks & Cohner, which has, in addition to tho gems with which it is set, ‘a microscopic portrait of her husband, General Serrano. -Weare very anxious to know who will succeed thom here— Ido not say replace them, for that would be too diflicalt amatior to do. We have had no arrivals from any Southern porta since the 21st ult., am unusually long interval. On that day the steamer Victoria arrived from Now Orleans, and on the previous day we had a schooner from the same port. Iam told there has been a late arrival at Matan- zas. The Diario dela Marina of yesterday repliss toa Statement made by the New Orleans Delta, to the effect that Captain Genoral Serrano had manifestod great in- dignation for the freovent outrages which tho federal cruisers had committed, almost in sight of the Havana forts, in searching vessels Icaving that port. He had sont ‘several messages to the United States Consul con- cornivg those outrages,and the commndants of those forts had received orders to keop a lookout, and if they should discover any United States vessel in tho not of chasing or boarding any vessel, within cannon range, to fire on and sink her. ‘The Captaia General has seen the insoievce and audacity of Yankoe skippers with so'much disgst that he openly declares his sympathy for (he Confoilerate States, his determination to protect thoir vosse's, citizens and flag, and his conviction that the atterpt on the part of tho Yankeos to subjugate tho South is supremoly senseless and futile. ‘Ihe above paragraph is copied from the Charlesion Courier of January 11, and the Diario says in reply:— In the editorial article of to-day’s issue wo repelled tho unjust accusation directed against the Spanish goyern- ment and the authorities of the island by a journal (Now York Times) which passes for an organ of tho foileral government; and now we are sorry tosay to the Charlos- ton Courier, an organ of the confederacy, that there is not cue word of truth in the article quoted above from the Now Orleans Delta. There has been no aggression on tho part, of federal cruisers on vessels leaving this port in tho neighborhood of our torts, consequently thore has uot been addressed. nor has tkere been any reason for addressing, any message to the United States Consul by our esteamed Governor, the Captain Gencral. Moreover, not. only has his Excellency not shown the sympa- thies fancied by the Confederates, but the. rcla- tions existing between our government and that of Washington have never been s0 cordial and intimate as now. The truth fs, that our supreme authority, in compliance with the high and important duties of ‘bis post, conducts himself in this, as in other matters in bis charge, with the tact and prudence be- fitting, and with entire submission to the orders of the supreme government and to the political principles aud international law which serve him as his rule of con- duct.’” ‘This disavowal also appears in large letters in the Gaceta Oficial, which adds additional importance to it. ‘The falsehood, thus nailed, was, in all probability, con, veyed to the Delta through some correspondence which was not intorcopted. But the Diario haa its hands full of this kind of work, and tho New York Henatp comes ia for its full sharo of refutation, to use a very mild term, as you will perceive froma perusal of the article which I translate and ou- close for your gratification aud that of your readers. Your Solferino contemporary got it yesterday * hot, strong and warm,” but he iy tet off lightiy in comparison with the severe punishment inflicted on the Hera, pro- bably because the latter can stand it bettor, and on the humane principle of tempering the wind to the shorn lamb, Since the beginning of December last there have beon five or six ship loads of Africans landed at or near Trini- dad, on the south side of the island. One lot of about three hundred was captured near the Isle of Pines and brought to this city ;and a queer spectacle (hey presented, those unnaturalii foreigners. Some oi tue mon had actually collars to their gurny shirts, but the women wero more simple and primitive, wearing their old cotfee bags without a particle of crinoline. Thoy were all young, and looked happy enough, though I would not ‘guaranteo that they wiil feol so after a few months’ work on a sugar tation in Cubs. Slave traders have not had as an opportunity for a long timo to push their nefarious business, and they are making the most of it. Excopt tle abolitionists, there is no class of men more anxious that our unfortunate civil war shovld continue, in order that our vossels-of-war may be diverted from watching and pursuing them. Another interesting local event was tho arrival here of Prince Alfred, on board the St. George, 86, from Vera Cruz. plendid ship-of-the-line Donegal, 100 guns, arrived the same day. The Prince had not heard the painful news of his father’s doath fill he saw Havana, and, under the circumstances, could #ot come ashore and show himself to the public, which here aud everywhere isa curiousanimal. Ho pafd a very short and private visit to the Captain General, to whom he afterwards sent @ vory handsome cross, as a memento and token of as- teem.

Senorita Cubas is by far the best dansense who has appeared in this city since the ora of Cerito and Fanny Ellsler, to neither of whom she can be justly compared, go essentially diffefent, and to some tastes superior, is her style. Senorita Cubas seems to dance as easily and naturally a3 bird sings. There is nothing forced, strained or affected in her most dificult pas. Hors is that exquisite art which conceals art and makes movements, requiring the greatest skill, strength and ondurance, appear ivvoluntary, facile and graceful. To copsuminate tact and skill, the Seuorita unites those races of face, form and pose which nature withholds rom many great terpsichorean arvises, and which no art can acquire. Above all, her dances haye those suptle characteris! ica which mark at once their nationality and their meaning; they aro thus, in a double senso, “tho poetry of motion” for to refluod and modest grace and ease they add that rare e neo of peculiar and characteristic expression which males them as traly Spanish as Corvantes’ novels —my we de genre as spirited and effective as Gottschalk’s *Bamboulas.”” After so long an iniliction of dancers whose motions were as meaningless as they were awkward, and whose po:es lacked equally motive and grace, it 18 a positive delight to soe a danserso who appreciates and expresses the poetry of her art, and who ig not content with presenting mMoroly its dificult feats ia@ siyle more nning the gymnasium than the ballet.

St. Vatentine’s day, its origin, uses and abuses are 6o well known @3 not to require any description at this late period.
