CAUTION TO SHIP AND STEAMBOAT OWNERS
Some enterprising individual, in New York, has
faked up an Old act of Congress which inficts a
penalty OF 500 on all large ships and $40 on small
crafts, which have not their names legiby painted
IN white on black ground, on their sterns. Hall
OF TINS penalty goes to the iniormer, and hence the
activity displayed in enforcing the law; one in
former having nelted 1920 in few days The
practice which has grown upof painting the names
on the sides and on the piot-houses of steamboats,,
is a noncompliance with the law and does not re-
ease the penalty. Owners of ships and steamboats,
ought to make haste to remedy the defect, and get
ahead of the infomers.

they had concerted and begun to execute general
attack upon the forts and entrenched lines of their
invaders within their own territory. Their first eff
forts have been successful and it is probable that
portion of the Russian troops will be diverted to
this older theatre of contention.

CUBA-We are looking hourly for the arrival Of
the Falcon from New York. She will bring us the
latest dates from Havana, and by her we may have
something more definite in relation to the move
ments in Cuba, reported by the Severn. Some
thing more reliable is needed to rest opinions upon
than the gabble Of street rumors in Havana, even
strengthened by the authority of distinguished
barber, who enjoys, in the intervals of lather, the
confidence Of an official Secretary The close cen
sorship Of the PRESS in Havana makes il extremely
difficult TO get accurate intelligence of any political
or local movements which it is the desire of the
Government to conceal. Troops are moved there
at the absolute will of the Captain. General, with
no one to ask his reasons, and no one enabled ex-
cept by conjecture, to state their object or destina
tion On the other hand, the same restrictions
upon the press conceals from us the extent of any
internal movements which may be made against
! the Government. We are left TO casual sources
of information, and in the uncertainty and inner.
tectlons of that sort Of communications. WE are
bound to receive with extreme care the reports
/ which are brought to us. The exeitable stale of
public feeling, which is strongly we believe in ia.
vor of the liberation Of Cuba, and therefore eauer
to receive every thing favorable to that event
should make us the more cautious not to credit too
eagerly, what may only bring speedy disappoint-
ment.
The Falcon may bring us news of more defin.
tie nature than the rumors received on TUESDAY,
showing whether there is really a rising against
the Government, or only such military dispositions
by the authorities there, as show their conscious
ness of an uneasy state Of feeling among the Gre.
oles, and a discrimination 10 be prepared at ali
points, to defeat a revolution.
The Mobile Tribune says that the Severn BROUGHT
dispatches to that city from Gen. Campbell, to the
commander Of the Albany. 1t is rumored that thew
contain a summons for that vessel to proceed TO
Havana. The same paper reports, by passenger
on the Severn, that there had been symptoms of an
outbreak at Principe, in which the soldiers at that
point sided with the populace, and that it was in
consequence of this, that the troops were trans.
ierred to Havana, and replaced by an equal mum.

ROUND lsLAND.-Commande Randolph has re-
Taxed little in the blockade of Round Island. He
now, as we understand, let's in provisions, although
he proclaims that he viii forbid all intercourse from
the shores 1t seems, too, that he does not always
do what he threatens Counsellor Warield, of this
city, has made trip to the island, defying not only
the proclamation Of the commander but she reit-
terated introduction, We cannot make oct wheth-
er he was really INSTRUCTED so as to make case, in
his own person, for civil suit against the naval
officers for their arbitrary conduct within the linn
of Mississippi There is no doubt however,
that he obtained full avowal Of the authority of
the famous manifesto, which has been so severely
censured by all persons for its lawless assumptions.
Time, we hope, viii be found to bring that docu-
ment up for the Judgment Of competent civil
court, to test the awfulness Of such acts, and the
responsibility for using or obeying them.

The reported projects for revolutonizing the
| Sierra MadTe and other portions of Mexico, have
been the subjects Of speculation in Northern pa
pers. The late Mexican treaty is quoted as a mu.
tual stipulation against any further annexation in
that quarter. Even the late Vice President, Dali
las, coneurs in that view, and has quoted the boun-
Diary clause as an inviolable pledge on our side,
that an annexation like that of Texas, shall never
again occur. He says, in a late letter, ''Tamau-
lipas, New Leon, Coahuila Chihuahua, Sonora,
Lower California may separately or together
achieve Independence, but, without the positive and
constitutional sanction Of the central authorities in
Mexico, not one Of them can be admitted into our
Union except by manifest breach of faith Z"
The clause supposed to give this national pledge,
is that with which the 9Th article of the treaty con-
cludes, declaring that the boundary line therein es
ablished, shall be religiously respected by each
Of the two Republics, and no change shall ever be
made therein, except by the express and free con-
sent Of both nations lawfully given by the General
Government of each, in conformity with its own
constitution" The binding obligation of this con-
tract is not to be denied long as the line estab
llshed continues to be a boundary between the two
nations. But we cannot agree that it would con-
tnue to be binding on the United States if the adj
joining territory should establish their Independence
Of Mexico and become a separate Republic, as per.
lectly as Texas was. To construe our agreement
to respect boundary made between us and Mex
leo, as pledge never to admit of it as a boundary
between us and any other Republic, however firm.
ly established, which may be detached from Mex
leo, as equivalent to making it pledge never to
recognize any other power than that of the exist
ing Mexican Union over any adjacent territory.
This could never be the intention of our Govern
ment, and is not the legitimate meaning Of the
treaty. The line between the United States and
the Mexican Republic, will never be changed with
out the full consent of both Governments. while
they possess Jurisdiction up to the line but should
the jurisdiction of either be lost, or transferred or
conquered, it surely does not follow that we are
bound to observe and maintain it for the party who
has lost it,
We know Of no project or prospect of revolution
or annexation on the Southern border but it is
natural to anticipate that IN the course Of time,
our system will be further extended in that direc
ton, and we do not believe that there is in the
treaty any obligation of good faith, which should
prevent US from receiving members, who may have
established their Independence as firmly as Texas
had done, when she was received among US.
