steamship Alabama, Capt. Windle, we
received full files Of llavanna papers to
the 23d instant, inclusive. The most
important and interesting intelligence
toy this arrival is the account Of a seryile
Insurrection in tn e vicinity of San Jaso
de Cuba, for which we have been com
PEELED TO rely for verbal Information, as

choly intelligence OF an outbreak among

not yet been received, buril stated IN
general terms, that a large number of
planters, with heir families and over

sFately despatched a man.oc.war steam
