Brown, the Harper's Ferry leader, had been con-
victed of treuon and murder, and his fate is in
the hands of Governor Wyse, who has power of
commuting his sentence on the motion fora stay of
sentence by the court. Some of the ablest demo-
cratic lawyers of this region are strong in opinion
that Virginia has no jorisdic lion in the case, and it
is possible that this question may bo taken to the
Supreme Court for settlement.
The expedition contemplated against Mexico is
still spoken of as formidable.
We have Havana advice* of the 28th ult., but
there is no news of importance. Markets were un-
altered. Two cargoes of slaves, amounting to some
900, had been landed near Havana.

THE ISLAND OF SAN JUAN.

A Washington despatch of the 28th tilt. in the
New ork floeld says .

" With reference to the San Juan and North-western Boun-
dary thtficulty, the correepondenos now being carried on
between our government and the British government is of
each a delicate nature that it le deemed prudent to withhold
from the public for the present. There is no doubt, how-
ever, but th►t the British government haa seemed rather •
high and somewhat positive tone in its communications re-
cently received. Tate course of proceeding is charecieristic
of a Palmerston administration, but is no evidence that the

British will not yield to our just claims and rights in the cue,
when firmly end coolly nuintained, or they will be by Mr.
Buchanarie government. I have reason to believe the admi-
nistration has eddressid the Bridal government in a firm
emanate, and with a full and frank statement of the ittstruc-
Sus (peen to the government officers in Weshington terri-
tory with reference to San Juan and the disputed boundary.
The British government has doubtless acted from the impulse
of fresh impressions made upon It through its officials in
EMU& Columbia and the British rue. The exhibit of tuts
and remora Cieeeral Cu. hem submitted will probably ro-
deos a dew. At ell events, there need be no apprehension
either that our Mesta will be given up or that a serious con-
aka will be the result. Toe administration dors not doubt
That the boundary Use la along the Canal de Hero."
