of late date says: We are credibly informed
that within a short time. a British brig Of
wsr entered the harbour of Key West, and
without communicating with the shore, pre-.

British Consul went on board and was inform

dered to survey the harbor by order of the
admiral ON the Halifax station, and that as
soon AZ he could make a report, there would
be a considerable force assembled there. In.
quiry was made OF the Consul whether he had
heard of an instruction In the Island OF Cuba.
These are occurrences and are seemingly por-
tentous. What the design of the British
government may be in this particular re-.
mains to be seen but her rapacity is 30 we ]

sign upon the Island Of Cuba. We have re-

the Island; Of which that government knows|
10 well how to take advantage. Key West
is an important position, and should be for
tiGad for many years reasons. In the pos-|
