BED OF THE CUBAN EXPEDITION. The Invasion of Gardiner’s Island by Marines and Marshals. The Charge on the Filibusters’ Camp. Ho Blood Spilled—A Turnip the Token of Peace—147 Men Voluntarily Surren- der—67 Stay Behind. Wmight be premature to assume that tne cause of ube as identified with the several hundred men lately encamped on Gardiner’s Island, and now within the dismantied wails of old Fort Lafayette, has suffered a blow from which it can hardly re- eover; but it is sate to say the great expedition, ‘which has been so long on the tapis, so long adver. {ised and 40 long starting, has been finally knocked into acocked hat. Marshal Barlow's deputies apd fifty marines from the Navy Yard put an extinguisher yesterday upon Cube’s brightest hope of extraneous aid from New York city. This result haa not ‘been the fault of men nor officers. If no hope be Jeit they indeed can well exclaim, like Francis the First, at Pavia, “All is lost save honor.” An un- happy combination of circumstances—a hitch here ‘and a hitch there. a lack of one thing and a surplus of another, traitorous members, Spanish gold and ever zealous United States ofticials—all together spoiled the enterprise of liberation, drove it to des- perate expedients and finally threw it into whe arms that have sought so long to strangle its existence. Braver or more de- voted hearts never «accepted service in any cause under heaven than some of those that gazed sloomily yesterday afternoon at the ebbing waters of the East river from the deck of the revenue cut- ter Mahoning as she sailed for Fort Hamilton fort- ress with her freight of prisoned patriotism on board, There, for instance, on the quarter deck stood Captain Harrison, of Virginia, whose record as axoldier is extensive enough in all conscience. From Bull ran to Appomattox was experience of military life suilicient to last a century. The Captain had no trace about him of the tdeal tilt buster, and certainly had no appearance of having passed a week or s0 among the woods and swamps of Gardiner’s Island. He was well and cleanly dressed; modest and plain in his deportment, but wearing @ troubled look, such as might be expected on the face of one whose high metiled spirit cnafes and frets at inaction and disap- pointment, and with whom hope deferred turns to gangrene on the heart. A dozen Virginians, old fol- towers of his across the Bine Kidge mountains, in the fighting days of Stonewall Jackson, stood ten or twelve feet away on the lower deck, looking up once im a while with eyes of true affettion at their old and srasted leaders. Among the Captain’s followers was @ magnificent negro stretched out on the deck taking tn @ Wealth of sunshine througi his capacious mouth and looking us nappy as a Sstall-fed and com- wtose porker. He was formeriy a piantation slave of the Captain. Charles 4, Murray, son of master Murray, of the Navy, Was another among these American pris- ouers Whose soul Was in the cause, He seemed pen- sive and leluctantly resigned, as though one great object, of his Ie bad sipped his grasp but still haunted him with the delusive promise of succeas. There were several native Cuban officers on the quarter deck, very bronzed in looks and more jolly uniter the cirtumstances than Mark Tapley would ‘be apt to prove. ‘To continue the narrative of yesterday, however, which leit off by stating that ‘thirty-eight marines were despatched in the tugboat Rocket on Thuraday night. ‘This force reacned Gardiner’s Island on Fri- day morning and found the Mahoning lying off we ghore. The mulltary forces were at once consoli- daied, and footed up the formidable and fearful array of filty-one men, exculsive of three deputy three handsome young men, more adapied wo Lg, ve an impression on tue laties of the Bumbie- bee Coterie Club than on the flerce and hirsute war- riprs liviag on the huckleberries of Gardiner'’s farm for the sake of one day biazing away in bioody .batue against the panoplied hosts of Spain. The forces were duy ianded and marshalled on uke beach, where the sda peppered down the Worst kind oi @ blessing on the heads of the unhappy marines. Lieutenant Kieeze took charge of one division, and Lieutenant McDonald of the ouber, ‘they separated, and with oid Hardee’s tactics in their miud’s eye resolved to capture the camp of the filibusters by a movement front and flank. The Deputy Marshals Christie, Winslow and Greig were divided among the two commands, Curistie being equal to gne and a half of @ deputy, went alone with McDonald; the others went with Breeze, Gardiner’s isiand 1s 180 miles from here and fif- teen from New London. It is 3,500 acres in extent OT upland jand, and is owned by Colonel Gardiner, an eiderly gentieman of very fine parts, hearty, hospitable and intelligent, combining the shrewd- ness of the Yankee with the whoile-souled disposi- tion of the highland Virgmian. He lives in excel- lent style, and threatens to be on top of this earth when all the present generation are below. He has 1.000 acres under caltivation; the rest 18 in ite primi- tive condition—part wood, part swamp. In the latter the exci ea fancy of Uhristie, the Marshal, saw snakes yards long, through which he tramped with a8 cool @ courage as though he were only crossing a cobble stone pavement. But toreturn to the Janding and tramp of the Tro- jana. McDonald bore down upon the swamps to cut off retreat irom the camp. Breeze made for the camp itseif with slow and stern step, fixed bayonets aud arms at support. This was in the mo! at eight o’cloc! in the meantime, while the marine army was moving forward, 4 gallant fillbustero eldvated himself upon a stump and waved his hand- kerchief, as much as to say “urry up or the turnips ‘will tarn cold.” Sure enough, it was breakfast time in camp, and vegetables were ail the rage, whiie the only biood the bold and brave Cubans cared to 4 ‘Was that in the veins of the aforesaid turnips. The ariny were soon in thecamp. “Right shoulder shift," cried Breeze, then “carry arms,” and ‘Order arms,” In quick succession, “What tor you make all dis noise?” asked @ curious Cubano of the geucle Breeze. The latter simply smiled. His duty he felt was no pleasant one to do. His men iraternized heely with the gallant, seedy fellows. aud no single expression of ap offen: character escaped the lips of any man on eliher side, ‘er agreement,” speaketo Breeze, “you will leave this islind and take passage on board the Mahoning for New York city.”” Could Unied Staves government courtesy farther go? Yet, wherefore ts 1b that some of these poor en addressed will suli linger on this almost deso- island?’ Is there a charm avout it that New docs not present?

Ever since the brilliant performance of American Girl at the Prospect Park Fair Grounds, when she defeated Goldsmith Maid, Lucy, Rhode Island, Basbaw, Jr., and George Wilkes, the friends of Mountain Boy have haunted the owner of American Girl hke a shadow, persistently offering wo match that horse against the Bashaw mare for such an amount as they tnonght would be most likely to be accepted by her owner. Meantime the old stories of Mountain Boy’s ex- traordinary speed were again pat in cir- culation, with what other view than to give him a fictitious reputation we are at a loss to comprehend. As the owner of American Girl had several engage- ments on hand, wnich he was anxious should be fulfilled before engaging in any new ones, he de- clined to match his mare anew until last Monday, when, after renewed bantering on the part of the friends of Mountain Boy, he consented to match American Gir! against him for $1,000 a side, at mile heats, the race to come off yesterday. The offer at mile heats was not such as is generally understood by trotting men as a mile heat race, but was to consist simply of three heais instead of five, which ts custom- ary. These conditions seemed to argue a lack of faith on the part of the friends of Mountain Boy respecting his stamina, but they no doubt thought he would last long enough to win the first two heats of a match such as they offered, It seems, however, they were mistaken in regard to his speed as well as his stamina, when contrasted with the same qualities in American Girl, for she posseased both largely in excess of nim yesterday afternoon, and defeated hum with soch apparent ease that all pre- sent were astonished at the presumption of his friends for entertaining the opinion for oue moment that he was fit to cope with such a mare as Ameri can Girl has shown herself to be. When the bell rang for the horses to come upon the track Mountain Boy was the first to make his appearance. He looked very well, and when put through his preparatory exercise he was very lim- ber and evinced a great deai of speed. Commodore Vanderbilt, who had come all the way from Sara- toga to witness Mountain Boy’s performance, was no doubt highly pleased with him, as were also his numerous backers, most of whom entertained very little doubt of his success. American Girl made her appearance shortly after,and her condition and stealthy way of going were the subject of repeated comment among the spectators, a8 both contrastel strongly with that of Mountain Boy, who was aj somewhat high in pparently flesh, buoyant in spirita and with a style of Notaugnin seemed very proud of hima and showed icLaughlin seemed very of him and showed off his fine action repeatedly to the spectators before the moment of scoring bad arrived. Alter both drivers had satisfied their pride by the exhibition of the condition and style of the horses in their charge they jopsed slowly down the gtretch, turned at tue Mountain toy ou te inside, be having won th in Boy on the won the pole. It had been the generg! fi or: men that the speed o} Mount and im going to the quarter pole was0 that he had no competitor on the turf for that distance who could foot with him, and that he could come up and take the word at the pleasure of his driver, When scormg actually commenced in ear- nest it immediately became apparent that Mountain Boy had for the first time met witn more than his match, as in the attempt to keep pace with the mare he was carried off his feet several times in the en- deavor to get level with her at the score. Some were willing to attribute this to rankneas on his part, but the knowing ones knew what was the matter, and cries were heard of ‘‘one hundred to twenty on American Girl.” McLaugniin seemed very much dis- concerted when he found that he was outfooted, and was willing to ascribe it to anything put the true cause, the fleetness of his rival. In fact, he was at such @ loss that he changed the bridle on Mountain Boy, and suostituted another with blinkers, and even went so far as to beg the judges to let him take the outside position instead of the one to which be was entitled by lot. but ill- fortune seemed still to pursue him. He got the word at the first renewed attempt, when on the outside, his chosen position, but in the endeavor to keep pace with the mare, just as the word was giren and he leaving the score, he broke badly in he effort and in a moment fell so far behind that nis chance of winning the heat was hopeless, He did a little better the second heat, as he had a slight ad- Vantage in the start, and was able to keep on his feet a few seconds, and until he found the mare going by him, which she did after gol about itty ata it that no horse except Dexter could last ander. ‘This fifty yards was all the racing that was done between American Girl and Mountain Boy yesterday afternoon, as the mare had nothing to do after the first brush but go on as it suited her driver, as he could have distanced Mountain Boy in either feat had that been his pleasure. ‘The attendance was very numerous, amounting to several thousands, and composed of many of our Most prominent men,who, having heard a great deal of the prowess of Mountain Boy in private;trials, were unxious to see those wonderful exploits veri- fied m public. ‘They expected to witness the fastest race that had ever been trotted on the Union track, and, no doubt, would have eeen it had Mountain Boy been able to put American Girl to her utinost speed, as the weather was delightful and the track in superb condition. Having defeated all her rivais and become mistress of the American turf, the carver of American Girl will no doubt be as pto- fitable 10 the future as it has been brilliant in the past. she Queen of the Turf has a busy season be jore her, and tt 1s hoped that nothing will take place on the trotting track in any of her engagements that will tend in the remotest degree to sully her fair fame, She 1s destined in the future to become as great a favorite with the ae tent eee as was Lady suffolk, Flora Temple ana Lady Thorn, Pao selling was very brisk, but American Girl Was so decidedly the favorite among buyers that she sold for about two to one until the scoring had com- menced. As it Was then apparent that she was so decidedly superior to Mountain Boy that she could hardly fail in winning the race, the odds became much greater, until at length they reacbed one hun- dred to twenty in her favor, After the first heat there was no betting at all, and the auctioneer pro- ceeded to seil pools on & race that was to take place after this was decided, between Ked Rover and Young Commodore, Disinisaing all explanatory matter for the present, We will now proceed to give the details of the race between American Girl and Mountain Boy, as fol- lo First Heat.— Just as the word was given Mountain oy broke up, and before McLaughlin could catch him and bring him into @ trot he was ten lengths belind, American Git) went around the wen ata Clipping pace, and was eighty yards in front at tire quarter pole in thirty-three seconds.

The Coming Conflict—A Few Points Dis- cussed—Many Are Called, but Few Are Chosen—The Senatorial Campaign. As the time gradually approaches which brings on the double election next fall—the Senatorial and charter election—the heat of politics is added to the heat of the weather, and these commingled make the political atmosphere very hot indeed. It is a very lucky thing that the Big Judge is not @ candi- date, as was his wont, for office just now, or there would be numerous additional incentives to the ac- cumulation of caloric in the systems of the political beats that most do congregate at election times around the City Hall, This small fry, however, have the game all to them- selves. They can twist and wriggie upon the political gridiron, like 60 many St, Francises, without ever hoping to reach ‘the goal of their mar- tyrdom or their hopes through the intercession of the all potent St. Tammany. However they may look upon the coming contest from a distant stand- point, they must all acknowledge the fact that St. Tammany rules the ‘‘roast,”” whether the victim be a “iifetime democrat” or one of che trimmers, who, not caring a cent for party, go the whole hog for office, THE PROSPECT. Tammany has an eye upon the whole school of small fish who are nibbling for baits; but there ts not afin of the whole shoal that is not arready docketed for deep sea soundings, where they shall never again touch bottom or hold thelr heads above water, not even to breathe. They are politically dead—nar- pooned and stowed away, like #0 many preserved curiosities of the past, specimens of Tammany’s expediency when the magnificent rascal of the white mustache contested for the supremacy and control of the spoils. The chiefs have the feld, beauty and booty, all to themselves; even genial Dick Connolly—to use a gentle phrase—the Comptroller, could hardivy appoint the sim- plest office-holder by “laying hands on him,’’ if even he 80 acntrea;. sitnoess tne process of laying aw hands, in eo bp — by ag tantamoun’ means conferring of wal the Senpeural sense in tines past, when virtue came from @ touch of @ garment, but, on the contrary, when he hands on his pets it was not to heal, but destroy.

As we said last week, the political questions of to-day and for the present are confined to the petty Oftice-seekers. They are supplying as yet all the fuss and leathers tor the campaign. The only visible contention is over the offices for Civil District and Po- lice Justices, and as we have betore referred to them at some lengtn we will pass them by for the present with the mere comment that those offices are im- portant, that the men selected to them can do a vast amount of good, and contra; that the oftices themselves by and by will be but stepping stones to higher judicial houvors, according as the incumbent of any one of them may commend himselt to his fellow citizens in the admunistration of the judicial duties entrusted to him. The HBRALD, in its full reports of legal matiers, does not ovériook the police courts, but gives ruil reports of ail matters of importance and interest coming up taerein, just as in the courts of higher Lege and we chief officials of these courts lave, Lbrough the Hg&RAaLD, the same facilities of submitt their best claims to patronage—inde- ee of all party—to the suffrages of their iellow citizens. laa to THE SENATORIAL DISTRICTS.

He prefers tne former; but there are others in the way more comimendabie to Tam- many, and Norton may have to go overboard.

Each man was armed with a club, the leader, @ big brawny Irishman, walking about cight feet in the advance, with breast swelled out and brandish- ing a shillalah, They marched witn regular step, two abreast, past the hotel, amid the cheers of a few Irishmen there congregated, and drew up in itne in front of the barn wherein the contractor Welch’s horse and wagon were located, and which, accord- ing to the ‘Salt Point gang,"’ was to be defended from the Sherif with thetr lives, All this time Jack McDonaia, the ringieader of the whole disturbance, walked, to and fro between Place’s blacksmith shop and Armstrong’s Hotel, stopping at intervals to converse with his “sentinel,” who at all times guarded the approaches to the barn. Under the shed attached to the barn was also congregated a squad of laborers lying at full length upon the ground, while the roadsides were lined with villagers walting to see what next would turn up, ‘This, then, was the situation of affairs at the Valley two hours previous to the arrival of the Sheriff with the military, All conversation with Jack McDonald fatled to elicit anything from him of a conciliatory character.

Just before ten o’clock word are through the village that the Sheriff and miliary were coming, when there was @ general movement towards the barn mentioned. At this time there could not have been less than one hundred laborers scattered through the village, and it is but justice to state that many of them did not countenance resistance tothe Sheriff. The others, however, mixed in with the villagers on their way to meet tne military, but there was poritively an entire absence of organiza- ton among them.

This was the all-important transaction, and if ever resistance was meant this was the time to show it; but the gusten- ing bayonets and the determined air of Sheruf Ken- worthy Was @ sufficient warning. ‘The laborers, however, by their violent language and threats, showed what they would have do had the force pot_been large enough to intumid: them. As the officers were leading McDonald and the other prisoner out of the barnvard the leader of the “Salt Point Gang” before referred to shoute:, “Let us take him away. We've got 300 Irisii- men here aad we can drive your militia.” A few others crowded about the leader when he uttered this exclamation, but they kept hands off, contenting themselves with following Jack tothe wagon. As he with his comrade were being piaced in the vehicle the Sait Point leader again shouted, “Jack, do you want to rag If you don’t, say 80, and you shan’t.” Another rush and crowding of curtosity seekers occurred, when it ‘Was thought @ serious attempt so resist was then and there to be made, but with gentie words the Sheriff sacceeded in getting the prisoners into the wagon and starting them to town in charge of officer Vandevort. A few moments was then tuduiged in talk, when the Sheriff, at che solicitation of the laborers, pt led to Armstrong’s Hotel to ascer- tain from Mr. Davis, one of the main contractors, when the men would be paid. He was followed by Company D and Com; 8, which orgenizatioas drew up in line in front of the hotel, the Sheruf pro- ceeding to a room where Mr. Davis was located, and having an interview with that gentleman. He told him his business, when Mr. Davis said, “You can tel! the men for me that we are making out the pay rolls a8 fast as possible, and as soon as they are perfected they will all receive their probably by Tuesday, but fi can't say positive.” Meanwhile there was an immense crowd in front of the hotel, and when the Sherif reappeared gene- ral silence ensued, Mr. Kenworthy teliing the men what Mr. Davis had told him. When he remarked that their pay would probably be iorthcoming on ‘Thesday, one shouted, “We want to be supplied with food to keep us till then, Why don’t Davis come offending partics macninery of Wall street and develop the syetem how fortunes are rapidiy accumulated.

There were a few discontented ones vhough, one or two otthem half imtoxicaved, who stil! heid on. ‘These again appealed to Sheriif Kenworthy, The jaiter commenced to talk to them, when one “Hush, boys, now listen to the Judge again.” Tue Sherut saia the entire blame of te matter rests Rpon the scoundrel Weleh, who had run awiy.

ARREST OF SUSPECTED PARTIES, While Hoboken was rejoicing over the tri- umpbs of her musical societies and holding @ festival in their honor a murder was perpetrated of so revolting a character that the little Dutch city is overspread to-day by gloom and excitement. It was one of those fiendish deeds of blood which never finds palliation even from the obdurate, and in which the demon of blood riots and revels, leaving behind bis ineffaceable footprints. The story is brief, but the mystery which envelops the case wakes it only the more terrible. Wiliam Lawrence, man thirty-three years of age, who with his wife and four children occupied a por- tion of the house No. 11 Newark street, has been employed for the past two years as night watchman at the Hoboken ferry. In the performance of his duties he often encountered many of the leading thieves and desperate characters of New York, and as he seldom showed them any quarter it is plain he did not mase many friends «mong that crowd. On the other hand, the vagabonds in the cells were frequently heard uttering imprecations on his head as the most in- exorable enemy they had to contend with. ‘This circumstance may perhaps be a material point in arriving at a satasfactory solution of the case. At all events Lawrence had enemies, not few and far between, but on every side. Night after night he made his rounds, but before the midnight bell had tolled on Thursday his last round in this world was completed. But the world did not know it, A report was made on Friday morning that he did not wake up the employés at the ferry as usual, His wife made inquiries, but did not feel much ¢on- cerned, thinking he had gone with some friends to New York. Yesterday morning, however, the ques- tion was sol About eight o’clock the workmen at the wharf lying between the dry dock and the ferry saw a body in the water near the mud scow. The tide had ebbed, and the water at this place is quite shallow at low tide. A GIASTLY SPECTACLE. ‘The body was drawn out and at once recognized as that of Lawrence, but so horribly mutilated that the men stood aghast. Every stab inflicted was murderous. Tnere was one, broad and deep, under the chin, one under eaci ear, two on the left eye, inflicted above and below the pupil of the eye, and one over the rigut eye. The face was swollen, and the countenance presented a picture of unutterable anguish. No one could look on it for a moment without reading of the last terrible noments in that dread sircggle, How he was clutched, and how he resisted, how the butchers triumphed (for there were cerlamly more than one) and how he appealed for mercy in that contest may never be known. The bloody work of that aw- fui Thursday night ia thus fara sealed book to the authorities. The body was stretched on the barge, with a sheet thrown over it, till Coroner White was notified. It was then removed to the office of Mr. Parslow, followed on the way by a crowd, mostly women and boys. The news spread rapidly, as sach tidings always do, and the excitement permeated every quarter of the city, Astonishment und alarm were depicted on cvery countenance. When one of the workmen communicated the intelligence to the family of Lawrence the scene was tn- describable. Notning remained in that nouse alterwards but gloom, misery and desola- tion, To be deprived of a husband or a father by a natural death fs a great affliction under ali circumstanees, but to have one brought home murdered—that word “murdered” ireezes the blood am every V HE POLICE ON THE SCENT. In the meantime the police were busy. Officers Thomas Burke aad Patrick Hayes took a survey of the locality and made such mquiries as might en- able them to ascertain the movements of Lawrence when last seen alive. At half-past eleven o'clock on Thursday night it appears that he left Jease Wood’ restaurant, near the ferry, in company with four men and a young gri from Chrysue street, Ne York, named Vie Morgan, sips Victorine Hagg, bu more probably Kitty Carroll. Her presence in this company at such an hour it is enough to allude to without any remark. At ali eveats, all the individuals were placed under arrest, ARRESTS. The police first went on board the propeller Galatea, of the old Neptune line, which was lying on the dry dock for repairs, but which was hauied od during the day, ana arrested Martin S, Persons, the second mate, and Andrew M. Dougiass, the en- ‘The repiles given by these as to the hour nt conflicted with the state- ment of the pi and in this, thought the astute Burke, there was @ little significance. Hayes was making a tour at this time through the rooms of the vessel and succeded in picking up a coat belonging to one of tne prisouers, and which, he observed, looked somewhat “muddy.” ‘This, in his eye, was significanty too. Penknives of formidable dimensions were icked up, and an examination showed that the jargest one had been recently greased. The prison- ers were taken to the police station and locked up. Soon afterwards a well Knowng character, named “Buggy” Natias, who resides at No. 36 Adams street, was placed in durance. Billy McCullough followed suit, and Victorine, the night prowler, who had been on 4 visit to Hoboken, completed the num- ber. All of these were in company with Lawrence at Jesse Wood's, One fact worth observing here 1s that “Buggy” was the most communicative of the party before he was arrested, and was the first to put the police on the track of Douglass and Persons. According to his state- ment Lawrence whispered something into Vic’ ear at the restaurant, and then, turning to Douglass, said “It's all right; it's aul Axed.” Nattas states phat he left the saloon at this time and the party re- mamed, PERSONNEL OF THE PRISONERS. 7 Both Douglass and Persons are large, stout, mid- dleaged men, intelligent, gentlemanly. and of re- spectavle appearance. Douglass appears a few years younger than his companion. ‘they manifest ho anxiety m regard to the result of the miquest. To judge from appearances there is nothing in either to Warrant the supposition that they would embark in such a desperace enterprise as tuis deed of blood.

Of his reputation it ts only neceasal to remark that if any of the police should be places on the stand to testify in the matter his cage will not be much improved. For what particular qualifl- cation he obratned,the soubriquet of ‘“suggy” has not been satisfactorily ascertained, but an explanation is suggeste) by the etymology of the word, which, as Tom Suilivan remarked, ‘‘would not look well on paper.” Reasoning from the facts in the possession of the authorities, in addiuon to the reputation and antecedents of Nattas, his position is an unenviable one just now.
