The Philadelphia United States Gazette publishes
the following speculative letter from Havana. The
Gazette says the writer is q gentleman of obscr-
vation:
HAVANA January 3. 1876
DEAR Sir: have heard numerous rumors that are
floating about in this city and will give you ew o
them There ia no doubt some grand scneme gong ot
ward ne the European Courts one oi the ruihofs
is that one of the OF the King Of France Is 10 marry
tho Infana Of Spain, and take possession oi Mexico
and give 1t back to Spain The Court OF Madrid VIII ap
point the son OF Louis Philippe Regent OF Mexico There
appears some truth in this rumor as we have large
Spanish fleet in the harbor and large trcnch meet Is
expected here in concert with the Spanish Eng
land will have large number OF ships OF war 10 cruze IN
the Gufof Mexico What share ofhe spoil England is 10
for her share Madam Rumor does not say but only
hints at Upper California the Eastern half oil Cuba
say to the longitude offs this part Of the island will be
nearer her possessions. The Court OF Madrid does
like the idea of giving England toohOld in Cuba az
from this island Spain derives nearly all her revenue,
and she knows full well that If England once raises tue
cross OF St George in Cuba the whole island is lost to
her and in lieu OF this will offer to Victoria Porto tco
Santa Ana is here, and s deep pollticu; he is no
doubt irving To effect revolution in Mexico through tue
army by working their feelings against the Unitec
States Tor unncxiue Texas. As Santa Ana is in the
power Of the Spanish Government he wishes to make IL
appear that he is in favor OF giving Mexico 10 Span
he is in correspondence with all the Generals oi Mexico
ms he receives several large packages By every steam
packet from Vera Cruz.
Santa Ana you will find to lead the European diploma
lis the wrong scent; his object will be to throw Mex
leo into the arms of the United States just at the time
the European powers have all things arranged this he
no doubt thinks will cause between France and
Spain in which England must take part with Spain
You will see that Spain In her stupidity, will lose the
Island of Cuba as the CubauaDs only wan! prcioN u
declare themselves independent and have the Republic oil
Cuba Uncle Sam will no doubt have efficient navy
10 keep of few hard knocks
