3 Summary.

There was no business transacted in Congress
yesterday, the Senate not being in session, and
the House still fritterng away the time in at
tempts TO complete its organization. The officers
yet to be elected are Doorkeeper and Post
master.
In the Legislature, the great bulk of the business
is in primary stage; a great number of bills,
petitions, memorials, &C., were presented yester-
day, for the details of which we refer to our
dispatches.
In the House Of Assembly, the resolutions of
Mr.. Dean, in reference TO the Hungarian exiles,
presented some time ago, were brought up, and
with the amendment offered by Mr.. Fiske, fur
nished an amusing interlude to the otherwise
heavy business of the body.
BY despatch which will be found below, it will
be seen that the Senate OF Ohio are still engaged
in the consideration of the contested seat 10 that
body, for Hamilton county.

EXPEDITION AGAINST CUBA-GREAT NKwS.-Mr.
Bubble Brooks, member of Congress, and editor
OF journal here, makes great fuss about certain
news, which he has telegraphed exclusively from
Washington to this city, stating that another ex-
pediton is being started against Cuba, that vast
sums of money have been raised to revolutionize
that island, that munitions of war and plenty Of
arms are being collected, and that all these move
ments will be conducted strictly according to the
laws of the United States, with the positive Pur
pose of accomplishing a revolution in the island
of Cuba, and Its ultimate annexation to the United
States.
All this news was given several weeks ago.
openly and above board, in the columns of the
Hrald, over the names of Spanish gentlemen, who
are at the head Of the movement. They issued
an honest, bold and open proauneianlento, for the
purpose Of commencing series of operations,
strictly legal under American laws for the express
purpose of revolunonizng the island of Cuba, at
as early day as possible. They have their head
quarters, not only at one OF the hotels in Washing
ton, but also at of the hotels in this city, and
in every principal city in the Southern and South
western States. They have money IN abundance,
and they will have arms and munitions at the pro-
per time IN equal abundance. Ia this movement
they intend TO conduct themselves with SO much
regularity and order, TO prevent Congress or any
one Of the cabinet from seizing an opportunity to
issue any more proclamations. The southera
States and all the leading men Of that
uon Of the country, both in and out of Con-
gress,s or ia the State legislatures, are in fa-
vor of the movement. Volunteer companies
will be organized by many Of the Southern
States, apparently for the purpose Of protecting
their own interests under the constitution, in op-
position 10 the Northern antl-slavery agitation;
but in fact and in reality destined, when things
have reached certain crisis, to aid aud assis, IN
bringing about a revolution in Cuba, and a similar
movement in the Northern provinces of Mexico.
There is a determined purpose in the South, that
New Mexico, nor California, nor any other State,
shall ever be admitted into this Union, with the
tislaveIy restriction, unless there be similar
admission of Cuba a portion Of Mexlco TO ksep
up the balance under the constitution, between
the different sections Of the confederacy. The
popular and legislative movements in the North,
IN favor OF both Canadian annexation and the anti
slavery restriction, only now for the first time
oIeniug the eyes OF the South to their best policy,
in the present crisis of things; and the persons
who have organized movements in favor of a revo-
luton in Cuba, and in the Northern provinces of
Mexico, will receive such strength and assistance
from the South as will entirely paralyze and DIS
arm the government from taking any such pro-
ceedings were undertaken last summer IN the
proclamation against the Cuban revolutonists
This, we believe, is the correct state of the
matter.
