Ar,.K,N CuBA--We have been Ia
'n;,h some of the late numbers Of The
- de Ciencia," of Havana, in one OF whiea
,s 6nd particular account OF the ores o, , s,l,
w., and copper lately discovered near VIVA
Cir, in CuSa, from which the editor, N'r. oa
,,,, believes great advantages VIII DC oo'aineo
The discoyerer was Don Jose de Escaian'e' now
siding a, Villa Clara, who has had Pracuca'
,.ou,;n,ance with the mode OF mining IN feru
-rd new Spain, and is familiar with different
Eipds of ore. Mr.. Sagra speaks oil the iocaii
,ex and gives the chemical analysis OF some oil
the snecimen., on the authority oil Mr.. Esca>
lauie.
i. stated ,ha, the silver mine is very ex-
.srsi,e and that the ore is easily obtained. 1t

,,ar,nce externally, and occurs IN masses,
which have greyish, metallic aspect when bro
Ken. with granular, or sometimes laminat-
a texture, without any indication OF The pre-.
cious metal. An analysis, the particulars oil
which are given, proved il TO contain II oun'
css of silver TO every quin;al; larger proper
ton than is Yielded by almost any mine In A
m,rica. Don Fausto del Elhuyar, who is men>
toned as we'll known for his Investigations on
N, subject, states that the medium proportion
Wicked by the ores Of New Spain, does MOI lex-
ICED three or foul ounces 20 the quintal: yh,lc
Senor Garces states, that the medium oil all the
American orss, is less than two ounces and Two
9Th per quinral. In 1871, the year OF album
dance IF U'e VaieuCid mine, the proportion oo-
,alnd = ss nine ounces and eight ien'hs; IN Or
binary seasons il is only three ounces. NJ the
mine If Pachuca i, is three ounces and two
,enlh,; and at the mines Of rasco, from two
10 three uGncCs.
Humboldt, in his Political Essay on New
SDain; r, marks that the value OF mine IN A
merlca, depends greatly on the state OF the PIP
uIaron in he neighboIng country; and III this
respr,t {, as well As in regard to the richness OF
the ore, the "Anales" says, the mine OF Vilia
Clara is likely to enjoy grea, advantages. The
population is large, and the facility Tor work.
Ing would be very great.
We have not room al present TO add iry

IN The same vicinity. They are numerous, ana,
il The accounts are well founded, Gao hardly
fail TO prove Of great value TO the Island # Gu"

We find II stated in some Of The New York
papers that the Senate Of New York has so a.
mended the law relative to imprisonment for
debt, as TO provide that where person is com.
mit'ed 10 Jail, having family, and no, being
freeholder, he shall be discharged after re-
naming in prison thirty successive days, and if
he have no family, and be not freeholder, af-
ter remaining sixty successive days. Why
should not the poor debtor be put at liberty,
whether freeholder Or no freebooter, as soon
as he will take oath that he has no property
This, with sufficient penalties for false swear
ing, appears TO US the best provision in relation
10 Imprisonment for debt. Restore the poor
debtor 10 liberty as soon as he will satisfy a
proper tribunal that he is honestly, not fraudu>
lently poor Bos. Pat.
LOne branch Of the Legislature has also pass
ed a law, declaring all theatres and circuses,
while used as such, to be out Of the Jail Sounds.
II is said, many theatre going folks will feel
this law very sensibly in the city of New York,
