The NeW Cuban lfoUemsnt-The rumor of a
new expedition against Cuba, Says the Baltmora
Sun of the 2lst) derives some additional force
from the fact that the Washington Republic copies
an article from the Courier des Eats UniS, of the
18th, which asserts that the reports of a new expe
diton against Cuba have assumed such a degree Of
consistency that unfortunately, it is no longer pos
sible to regard them a mere fanciful rumor.
The Courier says that preparations are going OF
secretly, with the greatest activity since it is de.
sired TO act at before the achievements ex.
pected from Europe shall have placed the island in
a too formidable state of defence, and more esps.
cialy before the organization of line of steamers
between Cadz and Havana shall have put Spain
within a few days reach Of her colony. What il
the most singular part of the story is that this lib
Grating plot is being prepared under the auspices
of Gen. Lopez, man who already stands indicted
for violation of the laws of this country, in ttinf
out the former expedition.
