INVASION on CUBA.

The following official statement from the Ma
tional Ifelgencer of the Goth, confirms the state
ments made in the newspapers in regard to an
invasion of Cuba:
Within the last few days information has
been received by the Government, rendering it
most probable that military organization has
been set ON foot within the United States, formi-
dable both in numbers and from the character of
those engaged in it, for the purpose Of attacking
the Island of Cuba and revolutionizing the Gov
eminent
1--WE are informed that the President Of the
United States, Immediately upon the receipt of
the information, directed orders 10 De Issued for
the vessels of the Home Squadron, as also for the
steamer Saranac and frigate Congress, to proceed
forthwith to the Isladd of Cuba, with view to
ascertaning whether any military force, organ
lied in the United States, was proceeding from
thence to Cuba, for the purpose Of invading that
island and revolutionizing the Government with
express instructions, in the event Of such being
the case, to prevent the landing Of any such force
or the carrying out OF any such expedition or
enterprise; and with further Instructions in the
event of landing having been effected, to pre-
vent the landing of any achievements, or of any
arms or provisions under the American flag, in
tended for such expedition or enterprise. In ODE
dience to these orders, we understand that the
steamer Saranac proceeded to sea on Saturday
last, and will probably reach Cuba by Thursday
next, where it is expected she will meet the Ger
mantown, the Albany, and the Vixen.
at is confidently expected that the whole naval
force will reach the Island of Cuba before any
considerable number of those engaged in the
enterprise can possibly have effected a landing,
and thus prevent violation Of our obligations of
amity and peace with Spain"

If the policy Of the resolution was sound and
GOOD the introduction Of it was well-timed Con-
gress had been in session one month. The ques-

for its decision. Texas was insidiously spreading
its net over New Mexico The delegates of the lat

on the floor of Congress Members were fresh from
their constituencies, which had just expressed
their opinions on the Question, and it was de-
sirable to obtain their votes ON a test mo-

could have time to tamper with their integrity
The majority of the Committee on Territories
was hostile to the establishment of Territorial
Governments nth The Propiso, and no bill favoring
the measure could be expected from it, unless In
pursuance of positive instructions In view OF
all these considerations no true ana wise irien'

Northern Wings, favoring concession in their
hearts, to abandon outright their positions
1t was playing very weak game. 1t was giving
