LONDON, TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 30, 1851, Inscrutable as it may appear, there can no longer be entertained a doubt that the Cuban Expedition was rendered abortive by a very slight magnetic devi ation. From the interesting documents in which one of the lieutenants of Colonel CRITTENDEN has endea voured to vindicate the unfortunate men who shared with him in the perils of that disastrous adventure, it will be perceived that General LOPEZ had originally projected a descent upon the island as near as possi ble to Puerto Principe. In consequence, however, of an unexpected deflexion in the compass on board the steamer Pampero, the reckoning of her progress was so far miscalculated that the vessel struck upon a coral reef during the night of the 10th of August, at a point very far removed from the place of destination. Alarmed at his dilemma, the leader of the invading forces caused his 453 followers to land forthwith, and the result of this precipitate movement on his part seems to have been their speedy and irremediable dis comfiture. The circumstance here alluded to is emi nently deserving consideration from the startling sii gularity by which it is characterised throughout. According to the deliberate avowal of the apologist already particularised, the variation in the magnetic needle was the origin of all the subsequent calamities experienced by himself and his ill-fated companions. Had Lorez," says he distinctly, " carried out his original intention of landing near Puerto Principe, the result might, perhaps, have been different," adding by way:of elucidation, " he might then, perhaps, have found friends, and raised a force sufficient to sustain itself until reinforcements were sent out from the States," a conjecture not by any means extravagant. Instead of this, the invaders were debarked in a re mote locality, driven to the risk of that debarcation by the accident above specified. That accident, it cannot very speedily be forgotten, was the deviation in the compass—a deviation caused by the very wea pons collected together by the buccaneers—the mus kets having been incautiously stacked in close proximity to the needle employed on board the Pam pero. Reflective observers cannot fail to be struck by the astounding peculiarity of this incident—the de feat of the assailants of the Cuban Government being directly traceable to the very implements of warfare accumulated by them for the accomplishment of their lawless and detestable enterprise. Those who are fond of tracking the influence exercised over the affairs of this earth by an invisible Omnipotence will find in the particulars here narrated a tempting subject for investigation. Apart altogether from the interest attached to the narrative from which these details have been ex tracted, there is visible in every portion of it a truthfulness that commands belief, and a candour especially acceptable at a time of such general and grievous misapprehension. Lieutenant VAN VECII TEN has evidenced in every syllable of his vindication of his as scciates in the expedition a simplicity such as must perforce command for him a hearing from all honest and unprejudiced auditors. He recounts the whole undertaking from first to last, from his ap pointment as First Lieutenant of Company Bof Colonel CRITTENDEN'S Regiment to his ultimate libe ration from confinement, with a scrupulous regard for exactitude, end crowns the whole of his enthralling communication by an acknowledgment of the folly and in some respects also the atrocity of the entire enterprise. There is a tone of manly pathos in this confession which irresistibly secures to itself our sympathies, the writer lamenting in a natural burst of passion the valour which has been expended by his unlucky comrades upon an exploit proving after ail to be the contrivance of a set of infamous speculators, having an eye solely to their own personal aggran disement. Before the body of adventurers left the American continent for Cuba every man engaged in the undertaking appears to have been really and conscientiously persuaded that the people of that island were anxiously awaiting their arrival to de cl ere their political independence—believing them selves (and that most implicitly) to be enacting the part of liberators rather than of ma rauders. Even Lopez himself must in some measure be allowed to have been deceived in his expectations—his judgment having been eclipsed by an ambition long known to be one of inordinate magnitude. Upon the heads, therefore, of those execrable and most despicable individuals who prac tised the deception should descend the infamy of the whole transaction ; those anonymous conspirators who published, during a considerable period anterior to the setting out of the expedition, the specious falsehoods and ingenious forgeries which, if true, would have been allowed to comprise within them its complete justification. Meanwhile the brunt of the vengeance wreaked upon the deluded invaders of Cuba by the forces of its Government, has been ex clusively borne by any one rather than those who were really and morally responsible for their atrocity. LOPEZ and CRITTENDEN have been each of them sa crificed, their hapless followers have been hunted by bloodhounds, and sentenced to ignominious and per manent transportation, their unoffending families have been plunged into the bitterest affliction by the news of their most lamentable misfortunes ; and all this, as Lieutenant VAN VECIITEN observes with such profound and evident indignation, to enable the infa mous projectors of the enterprise to chink the blood money in their pockets, and to chuckle over the re sults of their speculation. There is something very touching in the manly and unaffected manner in which the fortunate survivor of all these calamities pronounces his opinion upon the merits and demerits of his commanders, speaking of one in terms of ear nest eulogium for his valour, and mentioning the other in language of the very warmest admiration. Speaking of CRITTENDEN, he exclaims, for example, with no trivial emotion—" Attached to his command, in hourly contact with him, I knew him, and do not hesitate in saying; that a braver, nobler, more ho nourable man than 'WILLIAM L. CRITTENDEN never lived." Alluding elsewhere to General Lopez, he avers, in the most explicit manner conceivable, that " his courage was as conspicuous under every emer gency as his ambition was great, and his enthusiasm contagious." Nevertheless, while thus avowing his opinion in reference to captains so very recently and ignominiously executed, Lieutenant VAN VECIITEN shows himself by no means blind to the errors com mitted by them in the course of their disastrous expe dition, mentioning in epithets of stern condemnation the way in which CRITTENDEN failed to join the chief at Las Pesos, and' reprobating with no less earnest words of dispraise the blunders by which Lopez jeo pardized the fortunes of the enterprise, blunders which ultimately led to his being himself garroted in the presence of the infuriated inhabitants of Havannah. It is impossible to peruse this mournful narrative from the hand of VAN VECIITEN without lamenting the miseries experienced by the wretched men en gaged in the uudertsking in consequence of the criti- cal position into which they were entrapped by the interested misrepresentations of the parties trafficking in the chance of their destruction. Immediately after their first putting foot on the coast of Cuba their suf ferings seemed to have commenced. From the beach where they landed they received the earliest shuts of their antagonists. Every where afterwards they en countered either the regular forces or the armed pea santry of the island in overwhelming numbers. They could scarcely commence a hurried meal before they were startled into self-defence by withering discharge of musketry. The strag glers were butchered, the wounded were con veyed Still bleeding to the place of iucarce. stances of the case must take place, and it will be seen whether any person can with impunity assail in this country the freedom of the press, the great palladium of' the national liberties. FIRE AT PUTNEY.—Yesterday afternoon a fire was discovered to have broken out in the stables of Messrs. Denny and Calloway, stable-keepers, Fox and Hounds-yard, Putney. Some of the London fire brigade were promptly in atten dance, but unfortunately their efforts were unavailing, as the only supply of water that could be obtained was from a pump in the yard. The premises being entirely composed of wood, the fire spread with wonderful rapidity to the adjoin ing building, the stables of Mr. S co tt, lik ew i se erected of timber, and it could not be extinguished till the whole range was burnt to the ground. Amongst the property destroyed were a number of pig-styes, in which seventeen pigs were burnt to death.

Referring to these accumulated miseries the survivor already quoted observes with some cm • ph asis of the last night of their endurance—" It i s im possible for me to describe the sufferings of tha t night : heaven forbid that I should ever pass such another : that night equalled an ordinary lifetime." Having withstood the force of all these aggregate d torments the miserable invaders of Cuba seem at last to have abandoned all thoughts of looking forward to their alleviation, and, descending from the mountains in despair, to have given themselves up to their op pon eats. It was in this manner that the buccaneering expedition against the noblest among all the colonial possessions of Spain appears, from the account of Lieutenant VAN VECHTEN, to have terminated. Its results must in the end exercise over the more un principled among the adventurers in the United States an influence singularly beneficial, at the same time of course very materially strengthening the energies and increasing the vigilance hitherto dis played by the Cuban Government. Little dread, we believe, need henceforth be entertained of any future attempt upon the liberties of that island, at least for a while—the miserable failure of the last being the best security for the repose of the population. For this happy consequence the authorities of Spain have reason to be grateful, the brightest jewel in her crown having been preserved from the dangers of spoliation by a variety of remarkable and most fortunate cir cumstances. We would earnestly invite the public attention to the report of the extraordinary proceedings which have just taken place at the County Court of Liverpool, which will be found in another part of this day's impression. Under ordinary circum stances we should be exceedingly unwilling to speak harshly of any judge fur the course which he may think 'proper, in the exercise of his discretion, to pursue. It seems, however, that Mr. RAMSHAY has availed himself more largely of the extensive powers committed to his charge than any judge of either the superior or inferior courts of whom we have ever heard, and that a most dangerous prece dent may be established, fatal to the freedom of the press in this kingdom, and deeply prejudicial to the utility of the recently established local tribunals, if such transactions be permitted to pass without com ment, and without offering an indignant protest against the undue assumption en the part of the county court potentate. In order to understand the case fully it is necessary to recapitulate briefly some cir cumstances that may have occasioned a sore feeling in the judicial mind, and rendered Mr. RAM SHAY more excitable on everything relating to his conduct on the bench than might otherwise have been the case. There had, it appears, some time since been complaints preferred to the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster against the Learned Gentle man, and a memorial presented, praying for his dismissal from office. A prolonged investigation followed before the Earl of CARLISLE, in which Mr. RAMSHAY had the advantage of the powerful assistance of Mr. Sergeant Mutters. The result of the inquiry was the ac quittal of the learned gentleman, Lord CARLISLE having declared that there were no sufficient grounds established to induce him to comply with the prayer of the memorial, by removing Mr. RAMSHAY from the court over which he was presiding. So far all was right. We did not closely examine the evidence that had been brought forward, or scrutinize the judg ment with too curious an eye : it was sufficient that it was in favour of the accused. A little disappointment might have been felt by the parties actually engaged in the transaction ; but we believe that the feeling of the public generally was that of pleasure that a person in Mr. RAM.. SHAY'S position had; been exonerated from the more serious portions of the charges preferred, and that- so formidable an objection could not be brought forward to the further extensio❑ of the county court system. This feeling was enhanced by the account of the pre sentation of a piece of plate by Mr. RAMSHAY to his accomplished and powerful advocate, a substantial mark of gratitude that was equally creditable to the donor and to the recipient. The public sympathies gene rally were therefore rather along with Mr. Reams/iv, and we have no doubt that had the Learned Gentle man exhibited a conciliating demeanour, and had he tried to correct the matters that had occasioned the former complaints and desagremens, he would speedily have gained the good opinion even of those who had previously taken the most active and promi nent parts against him. It appears, however, that he has thought proper to pursue a different line of policy, and that he has fancied himself capable of crushing the hostile portion of the local press. Mr. %V J lITTY, the proprietor and editor of the Liverpool Journal, was the first person who fell under his displeasure, and if the accounts be authentic which we have extracted from the columns of a highly-respectable provincial contemporary, it is high time that " the fourth estate" should bestir itself to repel the formidable attack that has been made upon its unquestionable privileges through the person of one of its members. The first intimation of any extraordinary excite ment on the part of Mr. RAMSHAY was the appear ance of a miserable specimen of the bill-sticking fra ternity, who was brought up in custody of a bailiff of the court. He had been caught red handed, in the act of posting placards in the immediate vicinity of that tribunal, and tremblingly awaited his sentence. He knew not the full extent of his guilt. Hereto fore the locality in which he had been engaged was apparently devoted to the use of " gentlemen of his profession." The most extraordinary variety of an nouncements were to be found in every available spot. So confident was he of his privileges, that he was actually whistling with an unconcerned air when the grim bailiff approached and bore him, pale and trembling, to the august presence. He was, however, dismissed scathless. None of the objectionable placards announcing the publication of the Journal, were to be found among the heteroge neous contents of his wallet. He was, consequently, dismissed with a severe lecture (for not being guilty), and an intimation of what might have been bis fate, had anything relating to " thc Journal" been found in his possession. Having been thus acquitted, he be came available as QUEEN'S evidence. He was ac, cordingly closely interrogated as to the parties con cerned in that fearful offence. He either was, how ever, or feigned to be, totally ignorant of all relating to the offenders. The Learned Judge was thus un able to wreak his vengeance on the humbler instru ments, but he would not thus be foiled; he deter mined on flying at higher game. His bailiffs were accordingly ordered to bring the chief delinquent, WHITTY, the proprietor and editor of the offending Journal before the judgment seat. Mr. WHITT! was not, however, willing to respond to the curt invitation, verbally communicated through such a channel. There being neither warrant or summons, he refused to obey their order, and in sisted on their immediate departure from his pre mises. They were again ordered to bring him with them, but without any authority in writing being given. They were of course resisted, and on the third time of asking were armed with a summons, which was promptly responded to by Mr. Wurrrv. We shall not now offer any comment on the sub sequent proceedings. Unfortunately they speak for themselves and in a voice of thunder—sundry fines of 51. each were inflicted, and Air. WHITTY was also committed for different terms of seven dap.' im prisonment. The matter, however, cannot terminate there. A stringent investigation into all the circum- LONDON, TUESDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 3O, 1851. THE FRENCH REPUBLIC. We have received the Paris journals of yesterday. The press is still doomed to persecution. M. BAREST; the responsible editor of the Republique, has been summoned to appear on the 14th of October before the Court of Assize to take his trial, on the charge of pubishing a letter from a subscriber con taining false assertions against the Government. The Marseilles journals announce the arrival, on the 26th in that port, of the Mississippi, having on board sixty Hungarian refugees, and amongst them KOSSUTII. This steamer only put in for coals, and was to depart immediately for England. No person disembarked from her, but several of the merchants went on board. The commercial report for the past week is highly favourable. The cotton manufacture is in an active state. Business in the south of France is described to be very brisk. It is remarked that there is hardly any exportation of corn to England at this moment. The Univers publishes the concluding part of the official pamphlet printed at Naples in answer to Mr. GLADSTONE'S letters. The arguments contained in this part are of the same general character es those already noticed, except that the writer denies that the Neapolitan Government has had any hand in the pub lication of the Philosophical Catechism, by RAPHAEL MIRANDA. From the notes at the end of the pam phlet, it appears that in the month of June last there were 1,819 political prisoners in the continental pro vinces of the kingdom, and 79 under extraordinary surveillance. Besides these, there were 205 persons detained in prison as a precautionary measure. It also appears from official lists that, up to May 19, 79 condemned prisoners had been pardoned, and that 229 persons under trial had been withdrawn from the action of the tribunals. Moreover, since 1848, eight persons condemned to death have had their punish ments commuted by the KING. The English sloop the Lord Duncan was on Friday driven by the violence of the wind from Havre to wards Honfleur, when there was no one on board but a cabin boy. When the boy found that the vessel was before the port of Honfleur he let go the anchor, not withstanding the difficulty of the operation, and so secured the vessel. The Custom-house officers having presented themselves to visit it, the little fellow posi tively refused them admission, saying that he was responsible for all on board. It was not until the English Consul interfered that the courageous boy allowed the officers to make the visit. The Lord Duncan was afterwards taken into port.

CITY, TWO O'CLOCK. The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were esti mated at 5,000 bales, of which 500 American were taken fur export and 500 on speculation. The sales in clude 200 Pernam and Maranham, at 50. to 61d ; 150 Bahia, at 6d. to 6,} ; 300 Egyptian, at 50. to 60. ; 500 Surat, at 21d. to eid. ; and 100 Sea Island, at 100. to ls. 6d. per lb. The market was quiet, but steady.—ln Railway Shares a fair business was done, and better prices were obtained for stock. There is a general concurrence of favourable news from the agricultural districts. The harvest is secured in most of the northern districts of England, and will, in a few days, probably, be safe likewise in the north of Scotland. The Banker's Magazine for October states :—" In some districts the crops are, doubtless, above an average ; in others they will prove scanty. Over the whole island, however, the grain has been se cured in first-rate condition. There has, indeed, very rarely been a fi ner or more seasonable September. In Ireland the grain harvest has also been successful. The potato disease has certainly committed some ravages, both there and in England and Scotland, but hitherto it does not appear that the mischief from that cause will be of serious extent. On the Continent we are led to believe that while the crops are, on the whole, of fair bulk and quality, yet the harvest has not been attended with circumstances so favourable as in this country. In America there is, confessedly, great abundance. The general conclusion at present, therefore, leads us to ex pect a future average of corn prices, perhaps a trifle lower than those of last year." Great interest attaches to the probable tone of feeling in the next session of the United States Congress, and the opinion seems to be that it will prove strongly demo cratic, which means free trading. The reciprocity Bill with the British North American provinces will, under such circumstances, have a good chance of being carried before the ensuing spring. An American journalist in forms us upon this point, that— " In the House of Representatives, at th© last Con gress, so nearly balanced were the two great parties, that leas than half-a-dozen free soilers held the balance of power, and prevented the election of a Speaker until it was resolved that a plurality should be sufficient for a choice. The Whigs, however, had a nominal majority of some two or three. In the ensuing Congress, as far as the elections have gone, one hundred and ninety-four of the two hundred and thirty members have been elected. The number elected, including free soilers, stands divided 112 Democrats to 82 Whigs. • a • • • " With regard to the tariff, it is difficult to conjecture upon what theory the advocates of protection can count upon the slightest relief from the House of Representa tives. Pennsylvania may be secured without it, or she may be spared. There is but little hope of specifics or minimums, or of protection for the sake of protec tion,' in a House with a democratic majority ranging from twenty to thirty." A very melancholy occurrence has caused a good deal of excitement this morning in the Stock Exchange. A member of the house, Mr. Ingle Rudge, has committed suicide by means of Prussic acid, and accomplished this in the private room of another broker. It appears that upon the person of the unfor tunate man were found a small pistol, loaded up to the muzzle, and a peculiarly shaped knife or dagger, showing his determined purpose. The losses or differences upon the account aro understood to be very small, ac cording to some versions only 2001., and they aro said to have arisen upon Mexican bonds and shares. -The following letter has been received from Mr. Weisweiller, of Madrid, who forwarded the London memorial to Senor Bravo Murillo, praying that the whole of the coupons might be provided for: (TRANSLATION.) FINANCE DIINISTRY. " The Law of the Ist of August last having decided everything relating to the settlement of the debt, and the sort of each and every credit, it is useless to enter into fresh discussions on the subject, when the only thing remaining for the Government is the punctual fulfilment of the above-mentioned law, " This I have already signified to you, and repeat i here in answer to your communication of the 11th inst, " God preserve you many years. " Madrid, September 22, 1851. (Signed) " JUAN BRAVO MURILLO. " Daniel Weisweiller, Esq." The special financial representative of Spain, M. Bor rajo, had left Madrid for Paris and London. Public Securities have further advanced this morning, and the cheerful accounts of the crops, together with the quieter state of political affairs abroad, have pro duced decided buoyancy. Consols have been 961 to 97 for Money, and 96:. to 97 for Account. Exchequer-bills have been quoted 435. to 465. premiuul. South Sea Stock has been done at 1071.

The Madrid journals of the 24th contain no politi. cal news of interest. The Military Gazette states that the Minister of War has ordered a certain number of guns to be cast in the manufactory at Seville, on the most approved model, for the defence of Cuba. The Archduke FERDINAND, brother of the Em peror of AUSTRIA, had arrived at Cadiz from Italy. The Madrid Gazette remarks that no Archduke of AUSTRIA has visited Spain since the last war of succession. The Epoca had been tried for the publication of a seditious article, but acquitted. MADRID BOLSA, SEPT. 24.—The Three per Cents. were don© at 35 7-16 paper; the Five per Cents. at 16; Coupons at 8i ; and the Debt without Interest at 6 1-16. GERMAN Y. The Senate of liatriburih7;bri;hed on the 25th the decree abolishing the fundamental rights of the German states. The rights accorded for the city and its territory by the Senate and the Assembly are, however, to be preserved. The King of WURTEMBURG has arrived at the Hague. The Wiener Zeitung of the 26th inst. says that the negotiations between the Government of Austria and Prussia on the one side, and the Danish Cabinet on the other, relative to the settlement of the still pend ing uncertain relations between Denmark and the Duchies and the Germanic Confederation, are being still carried on. The Austrian Cabinet has proposed to settle the question both of the Danish succession and of the internal relations of the various distinct parts of the monarchy to each other by the admission of the whole Danish monarchy into the Germanic Confederation. This view, which was at first opposed by Prussia, now meets with its lively support, and even the Danish Cabinet is said to have expressed its readiness to continue the negotiations on this basis. Russia, it is also said, is by no means opposed to this ; but even in the event of their being carried on upon this basis, some time must necessarily elapse before this complicated question can be settled. BELGIUM. The Independence of Brussels says—" The result of the elections of senators in all the country has reached us. Numerically it is weak, since the go vernmental liberal opinion only gains two votes, but morally and politically it is immense, by the striking adhesion which the four gre a t t owns o f y the kingdom, the capital at their head, have given to the policy of the Cabinet." RUSSIA. The Russians have discovered four important veins of silver ore in the Caucasus—ono in the defile of Sadon, another in that of Ordona, a third in that of Degorsk, and the fourth near Paltchick. The veins are rich in the yield of silver. The working of them has already been commenced by order of the EMPEROR. A letter from Warsaw of the 19th says— " A master tailor, named Michalowski some time ago obtained a passport for Paris, on the condition that he would not go to London ; but, on arriving at Paris, the temptation of the Crystal Palace was so strong that he could not help visiting it. On his re turn to Warsaw a few days back he was summoned to the office of the police, and was told that he had been to London, in violation of his promise. It was accordingly ordered that he should receive a certain number of stripes, and they were duly in flicted." ITALY. The Emperor of AUSTRIA visited Como on the 23d, and returned to Monza the same evening. On the 24th he again honoured Milan with a visit, and pro ceeded to the new church of St. Charles, which had been commenced under FRANCIS I. His MAJEsTr was accompanied by 35 generals. The Papal Government is opposed to the projected railway between Ancona and Bologna being com menced before a railway communication is established between Rome and Ancona, as it well knows the difference existing between the inhabitants of the Bolognese parts and the Romnns, and is averse to Bologna being connected to Ancona by that means; whilst the capital would remain perfectly cut off from the legations with regard to railway communication, and consequently would find its influences weakened in a part of the State that is in general not to be con sidered loyally disposed. The Papal Government is, besides, in principle, still opposed to innovations, and, taking everything into consideration, it may confi dently be asserted that at present there is little pros pect of railways being constructed in the dominions of the Church. The number of Austrian troops occupying the Roman States amounts to about 13,000 men. Very extraordinary meteorological phenomena oc curred at Rome, on the 19th inst. Storm succeeded storm without interruption throughout the day, and the darkness was such that many of the inhabitants had to light their lamps at noon, a thing unheard of at Rome. WYLD'S MAP OF THE PROPOSED RAILWAY TO INDIA.—The Leviathan Geographer has issued a small chart, showing the course of the proposed rail way, connecting Bombay with Ostend, in a line un broken, except by the narrow Bosphorus. From the opposite bank to Constantinople it proceeds through Asia Minor to Aleppo, and follows the stream of the Euphrates to Bassora, whence it skirts the Persian Gulf and the seacoast of Beloochistan, striking southward to Surat and Bombay; being the course recommended by Mr. Alexander P. Campbell to the Directors of the East India Company in the year 1845. There is certainly nothing impossible in the scheme ; its main features can be clearly seen by an inspection of this neat little map. SHIPWRECK AND Lose Or 'APR.—The British ship Hindostan, Captain Realions, from Whitby, England, for Quebec, foundered at sea, and in going down took with her nine men, who all perished. On the 27th, Cape Pine, bear ing east, distant sixty miles, her boat, containing the captain and six men of her crew, wes fallen in with by the schooner Martha Grenow, Captain Robbins, from St. John's, N. F., for Boston, and the men were taken on board and subsequently landed at Shelburne, N. S.—New Fork Tribune. PARISH OF LAMBETH.—A public vestry meeting of the inhabitants of the parish of St. Mary, Lambeth, took place yesterday morning at the Vestry-hall, Church-street, to consider the propriety of erecting a new vestry-hall inc holding meetings and the transaction of parochial busi ness. A long and noisy discussion having ensued, the resolution was carried by 59 to 52. It was then proposed to establish public baths and washhouses in the parish, which, after some discussion, was negatived by 39 to 24. A poll was then demanded on each question, which will take place to-day and two succeeding days, M the Berne Taireo, licwaiiast9u. • .~ ~~; . 100 8 6 8 cess Louise, Callao; Ellen Highfield, Rio yrande;to. carora, Phildelphia; HyNewG orlii hattan, di to; Sr. Patrickenr, ditto; Piyince Albert Ed"rji, Denia.
