FRou CARDESAs.--We learn from Capt sawyer
Of the brig Tonqunc, from Cardenas, July %. that
there was n great excitement at Cardcnas, in con
sequence OF report having been received that
another invading expedition had made landing
at Cicnfucgus. The governor had called al the
male inhabitants TO arms in defence Of the city.
Nightly patrol was kept up by the citizens Of the
place. II was perfectly healthy on board the ship
ping in the port, bot there was some sickness
among thc negroes ON the plantations. There was
no sale for northern produce, such lumber,
shocks, &c. The sugars have all been forwarded
to the United States. Sour niolasses was worth two
rials, and no frcights Offering Moo York Tribune.

Tbs Presidents message commands general at.

ready elected stormy debate. aud the most un.
reasonable opposition on the part Of Of the mem
bers from Texas, with O corresponding feeling ON
the part of others An attempt Is made, we sec, 70
enlist the whole South in this unholy warfare ganst
the General Government and, as If this sectional
oppositon was not enough, we also that the Lo-
cofocos OF the North are joining in this chorus of
opposition. we have good reason for believing
such 10 not the true sentiment Of the country either
ut the North or the South The Executive was
called upon to give an opinion, and he has given it
with irankness and fairness that ought to com.

ne stands pledged to support the Constitution to see
the laws Of Congress executed, and to maintain the
integrity of the Union He 10, at the same time,
ready and anxious TO aid in any fair adjustment Of
the questions before Congress, and he implores the
National Legislature not to adjourn without dispos
ing of the difficulties which now threaten the dis
memberment of the Republic. We defy any good
citizen. any reasonable man, to take issue upon the
terms or recommendations Of this message Ii is
an able statesmanlike, national review of the boun
diary difficulties, and presents views such as all
good men OF the country will sustain with one voice
and one heart II gives the highest satisfaction to
all lar minded men in this community and we
were happy to hear Mr.. Clay speak Of it yesterday
as an able and patriotic message, and as one which
no said he should be glad to Defend if he was able
to be present In his place in the Senate II has new

The COAL TaApr.-The opening Of the canal to
Cumberland will vastly augment the canal trade OF
this District, and in an especial manner by the In
PRODUCTION of coal as an abundant article of com.
merce. In Alexandria ample preparations are be.
ing made. The new wharf at the outlet of the ca.
nal, except the drawer, is said to be completed 1t
extends from the shore three hundred and ninety.
two and q half feet, and an additional platform,
which connects at the south side, is one hundred
and forty feet. Within short distance, Messrs.
Champion Bradshaw are vigorously at work in
the construction OF the new wharf for the Frost
burg Mining Company.
PIONEER MANurAcToRY, GEoRaErows-Fig

right places, but they somehow failed to tell the
truth for us yesterday morning. We stated the an.
nual disbursements for labor in this establishment
to be $4,000 or 100000 One third of this is
about the mark.
The FIRST BoAT!-We learn from the Alexan-
dria Gazette that the canal boat "Atlantic," Capt
Thomas, was TO depart from that place yesterday
morning, with very large and valuable cargo Of
merchandise, lumber, &c, for the upper country
This boat, that paper states, was constructed by
Mr.. Joseph Hunter, of Alexandria, and is designed
TO run in conjunction with line belonging to the
Frostburg Mining Company, between that town
and Cumberland Her dimensions equal to the
utmost capacity of the locke, being eighty nine
fee: in length, apd fourteen and half feet in
breadth, and she will freight one hundred and
twenty five tons Of coal, or fourteen hundred bar
rels OF flour Her construction reflects great credit
