' Regarding the people concerned in the threatened
Cuban expedition, a correspondent of the Mobile
Herald, just returned from a visit to Bound Island
(Sept. 13), says :
There are at present about three buntlrul and tide per..
saes on the island. They ere the healthiest and rcughtsb

and wetting patiently far their departure. When I arrived
they were nearly out of proviainne, bat on Monday night a
schooner arrived with eight days' rations on board. It hat
been reported that they have all baen starved, or, at least, that
they had no provisions. Who could ever imagine that the, I
would staffer with hanger as long as there are puty of enttie
meaning on the Wand ? They ell have good places to sleep.

of grey. They obtain the best rf water at soy place on the
Island by digging a hole about four feet deep, and thou that

the Wand tour days and messed with the officers all the
time, and em confident that not more than three men knew

Saturday for some plus where they will receive their equip-
ments. The government vessels do not interfere with Meat
&tall. The Water-Witch and Flirt have been Yog ewer

steam and nor up to Pascagoula. But for what purpose we
know not. The Flirt is at the same piano, but I do oat
think she lon any men on board of her.

The Indians hare again attacked the settlements on
Indian River, and burned several houses, whose in-
'habitants, having notice of the approach of the enemy,
fled in sermon to save their lives. Such is the account
reelect torn distriot, ban' it is impossible to be
sure of its fired< om from exaggeration. It is quite
yobs%) that the burning. and plundering. com-
plained of are the work of a few -trivets heroes, and

From Hayti we have no intelligence since the as-
sumption of the imperial dignity by President
S uheaque. From private letters we learn that
'he mew en.; eror's chance of a quiet reign is wit
the her. The whale affair is a black intrigue
and lasagna n, with which the people are not well
satisfied. We wait with curiosity the promised list
of Ilaytian robility uner the new regime. They

eit e. Princes, dukes, mat quis. s, and counts will
be as j:eenty as blackberries is the island, and the im-
portal c urt will ornbably bo better furnished with
high-rounding titles than any in the world. The mo-
rtar .heal and aristocratic cause has reason to rejoice in
its acqtesitiou.
