From the N. o. Pcayune.
LATER FROM HAVANA.
The Abduction fully confrmed-Rey in a cell an
Castle del Princips-Despatehes from General


Campbell.
BY the arrival here yesterday of the brig
Adams Gray, Capt. Schneidau from Havana the
18th inst, we have files of the Faro Industrial,
Diarto and the Gdceta to the date of her depar
ture; md important intelligence relative to the alb.
ducion of Rey.
Capt. Schneidau informs us that Rey is in
prison in the Fort, (Principe.) On or about the
Isl inst. the Captain. General sent for and had him
taken to his private residence, where's in the pres
ence of several lawyers and Of Gen. Campbell,
he took his deposition, a duplicate Of which
ha nded TO that officer. The document, II is
derstood; was forwarded by Counsul to the
U. S. District Attorney in this city. 1t is also re-
ported in Havana that Rey had refused the pro-
lection offered him by Gen. Campbell, on board
the Andrew Ring,- but his refusal given in
consequence of the Havana authorities being pres
ent at the time. Afterwards, Rey addressed
two letters 10 the American Consul, asking protec
ton.
Capt Schneidau brought dispatches frotn Ger.
Campbell for The General Government, which
were forwarded Washington this morning.
With these dispatches are enclosed, IT is said,
the two letters of Rey-one stating that he had
been abducted, and the other praying for the IN
terventon of the American Government in his
behalf. We learn from Capt. s. also, that on his
depart rture from Havana the captain of the port
told him, if the Americans wanted Rey they would
nave 10 COl1c luhC Nun.
Extract Of letter from q gentleman in Ha-
vana to friend in this city
The man J. Rey, alias Garcia, about whom
there is much ado in your city, is in solitary
confinement in cell (cula6o=o) in the Castle del
Principe.
The truth Of the dispatches from New York,
which we gave to our readers few days ago,
relative to the abduction, and which transmitted
intelligence, brought to that city from Havana by
the Tarquin and. the Falcon, is thus confirmed 10
The very letter.
For ourselves we have never entertained
fore, which we publish to-day has all along been
anticipated by US. To the hitherto honestly in
credulous, however, it will serve dissipate the
last remnant of mystery which has invested this
affair.
As for the immediate actors in the abduction,
they beginning TO find, presume, that
although truth may be hidden for a time it can
never be stihed. If the crime be fully brought
home to them-and these successive arrival from
Havana seem 20 render it a certalnty-we should
not be surprised 10 learn, that when the veil of
deceit and faIsehood in which they had shrouded
themselves has been stripped off, they turned
round md assuming the attitude and tone Of def
ance, brazened out the guilt they could no longer
conceal paate. But as we have repeal atedly
said they are but secondary objects before the in.
dgnation Of the country. The American eagle
will seek higher quarry 10 appease his justly ex.
cited wrath. A terrible retribution awaits the
originaors of the deliberate insult TO the honor of
the Republic, and although they not within
the grasp of the civil power Of the State they
will find it difficult TO get beyond the reach Of
Uncle Sans long arms.
