The Prcsiden, on Cuba.

Where are the Cuba invaders
This question promises TO become as
difficult of solution as the one of A.
bout equal Importance, "who struck
Billy Patterson No body can tell
where this expedition which has so
much alarmed the President, is be-
ing organized, who are TO be the
leaders. or any thing about it. The
southern papers are even more in the
dark than the northern, and almost
say openly that the president has in
spottsmcn par!ance, "gone ell half
cooked"
But while so much mystiication
and uncertainty prevails in refer
ence to this expedition TO relieve
the poor and oppressed Cubans,
there can be no conccalment of the
fact that expeditions have been
openly organized in this country to
aid the Hungagions, For example,
we take the following from yester-
days Chicago Tribune
Sympathy far N,mgary.-ENten
tensive arrangements are being made
in New York city for public demon
stration in behalf Of the llungarians.
The Tribune says:
We understand that it is propos-
ed to have three stands in front Of
the City Hall, in order to give OPP
portunity 10 the citizens and resi-
dents Of every nation to participate
in the proceedings. The central
stand will be occupied by the Presi-
dent { which office, it is hoped, will
be filed by Gov. Fish, and by his
assistants, and there the public will
be addressed in English, distinguish
ed speakers Of the different politi-
cal parties having been invited to
lend their aid in this cause, which
must enlist every lover Of liberty.
At one Of the side stands our Teu-
tonic, Sclavonic and Magyar fellow
citizens will be addressed, while the
other will be devoted to French and
Italian republicans"
The enthusiasm in favor Of the
Hungarians is kindling over the
whole country. We observe that a
meeting was held a few days since
at Little Rock, Ark, and a subscrip-
ton started to aid them in their no.
bic struggle.
In addition TO this, it is notorious
that an expedition of over fifty men
has actually left New York for Hun
gary, and our Geographic dispatches
asst week also said that several A.
nelican ships had arrived in the
Hadriauc with provisions to relieve
he Republicans Of Italy. Why has
he president issued no proclama-
ion to put down these open inter-
'erences in the " domestic concerns
Of friendly powers ?" Why are the
poor Cubans alone prescribed, willie
4
Hungary, Italy, and even Canada
can receive all the aid and sympa-
thy the American people may feel
inclined to extend TO them?

AUSTRIAN BArBARlrY.-For a de-
moniacal and helish spirit-ior un-
redeemed barbarism and atrocity,
the following proclamation of the
commander-in chief Of the Austrian
army in Hungary stands unparalell-
ed in the present age. This mon
ster Haynau seems fit champion of
legitimacy-which is alone upheld
by, as it upholds barbarism. A free
people are always magnanimous-a
nation Of slaves alone can be guilty
Of the monstrosity of numbering wo-
mon and children for political often
ces:
To The Inhabitants IF Buda and
PeSH.
After several victories, which the
Imperial arms have obtained over
those Of tho traitors, we are again
among you. We have again planted
the imperial standard on your stoe-
Piles. But our feelings are far diff.
iercnt from what they were when
We left yon short time ago. Doom.
ed to death is every person--no mat
ter Of what rank or doomed to
instant death, on tho spot of the
crime, is every one who darcs to as.
sist in the cause of the rebels, by
words or by deeds, or by revolution
AIRY dress; doomed to instant death
is every one who dares to insult any
of my soldiers, or of those Of our
allies; doomed to instant death is
every one who enters into traitorous
communication with the enemies Of
the crown, or who maliciously pre-
sumes by rumors to assist the rebel
lion, or to conceal weapons.
