Proposed Contiscation te Repay Loyal Sub- jecte—The Prisoners for Fernande Po— Movements Around Villa Clara—Reports About Mayari—German Bemand on Gene- ral DulceRumers of Trouble im Perto ane. HAVANA, March 16, 1869, ‘The idea of reimbursing “loyal” citizens for losses ‘wustamed in the present rebellion by the confiscation or sequestration of the property of rebels seems to meet with favor by the Havana press, and though it is hardly so bold and outspoken on the subject as certain of tie “truly loyal class in the United States, occasional reference is made to it, evidently as a “feeler” and with a view of familiarizing the public mind to , It recently called attention to the claim of Don Francisco Menzon, a Spanish trader, who suffered from the Mexican revolution and whose claim was allowed by Juarez—mirabile dictu, it might have added. True, the precedent is not com- piete, as Monzon was a foreigner to the Mexican government; but then it goes to establish the prin- ciple that the rebellious should pay for property destroyed during a revolution, Atleast it scems to think go. ‘The Prensa of this morning claims to be the pioneer m the confiscation idea and expresses its satisfaction that the Diario de la Marina and the journals of Matanzas and Cardenas have given in their adhe- sion thereto. Ever since the manifesto of Cespedes and Aguilera in December last, decreeing contisca- tion of property belonging to enemies of the insur- rection, similia similibus curantur 1s the maxim,says La Prensa, evidently thinking that expresses retali- ation. It does not advocate absolute confiscation, but rather the sequestration of the property of rebels, their accomplices and emigrants of a certain class pronounced guilty, in order that such property may contribute to the expenses of the State and to- wards indemnity for losses sustained by the loyal, whether Cubans or Spaniards. The Prensa justifies the idea by referring to the course pursued by France during the revolution, and by the “great republic” ai the recent civil war. a reception of this you will have been in- telegraph of the fate of the political pris- pos eres thelr was to have taken pane semerael as Deen aenieen until Wednes- tay or eee pip rot next, lowing to the) fact that the gas, war vessel, seiected for their Gamenoetenons need goes refitting in order to accommodate them. are many suspicions as to the ultimate disposal and surmises bad an interview with Dulce on Sunday svectfully inquired whether all the political pris- ners accused ‘of different offences, as they uber were to be transported, and if their cases nad bee! prneny investigated.

It was brought shout by the many distressing scenes witnessed by the volunteers in ‘ar paren tings between fathers, brothers, sons and husbands and their families, which have made a deep impression on hearts little accustomed to feel. One of the sentinels was so moved by an interview of this character between a father and bis four children that he shed tears and jet fall his weapon, declaring that no man could be ply who expressed himself as did the prisoner. ritish — General recently visited the fort- Tesses to see Mr. Barrenqul, a Cuban, who had been British Consul at Cardenas; Mr. Duggan and others, whom the public believe in no way implicated.

SANTIAGO DE Cuna, March 8, 1869. ‘The expedition to Mayari, which left here on the 25th ult. under command of Colonel Camara, afterwards joined by a small force which left here by sea on the Ist inst., was so far suecessful that it arrived at Mayari and took possession of that town, but apparently the ultimate result will be of as little importance as any of the preceding opera- tions. From the time the troops passed Brazo de Canto until they arrived at their destination they Were subject to a continuous fire from ambuscades, through which they lost one captain and six men killed and ten wounded, as reported by themselves. ‘They entered Mayari without fighting, anu the state- ment of the execution of Spaniards there by the insurgents under Monson was fully confirmed. Twenty-one men, including, it is said, two priests, were the victims, Provisions were found to be ex- ceedingly scarce there, and a steamer has been despatched to-day with supplies to the Bay of Nipe. ‘The town 1s fiat, quiet and the excitement, Brinetoally orig originated at the time of the expiration ards, has ey sub- pthc grr one ition of the place has proved and the deaths from cholera, which at one ume amounted to twenty-nine ee ieee Dow dwindled down to two or three, e" of Health now issues clean bills. ‘The situation here has decidedly improved and grinding has become general.

DESTRUCTION OF AN ELEVATOR BY Frre—Loss ABOUT $30,000.—Between twelve and one o’clock yesterday afternoon a fire broke out on board the steam elevator Liverpool, belonging to the Floating Elevator Company and tying in the Atlantic Dock basin.

The work moving all vessels in the immediate vicinity was soon accomplished and a further spread of the fire was thereby prevented. The elevator, however, was burned to the water’s - loss of $30,000. There were 300 ogsheads Cay on the wharf which was owned by Mesars. lett & Lezerse. It is estimated that a damage of about $1,500 was done to them. bd elevator was built in 1861 by Captain Tucker, of Brooklyn, and was considered one Por the best elevators owned by that company.

A communication was received from the Mayor enclosing a communication from A. F, Campbell, secretary of the Wallabout Commissioners, in rela- tion to the payment of the awards for land taken for the extension of Washington avenue. The Mayor deems the subject of sufficient importance to request the Board to take such action in the matter as will enable the Commissioners to complete the improve- ment at the earliest moment possible. The secretary of the commissioners states in his communication that the work is so far progressed that in the opinion of the commissioners the same can and should be completed early this summer, so that the public may have the use of the improvement as soon a3 possible. With this view it 1s of absolute importance that the city have the strip of land taken from Taylor street to Kent avenue for the comple- tion of the new portion of Wash mm avenue as extended, The land can only be obtained by the city either paying the award or allowing interes; for the amount so taken until cvllected. As the commissioners have no authority to expend funds for this purpose they ask the Board of men to take such action as will relinquish the use of the Jand to the city, thus insuring the early comple- tion of the work. The subject was referred to the Law Committee to report. The Committee on Public Lands and Buildings re- ported in favor of pu an additional story on Re Yorty-fourth precinct stauon house. Adopted.
