CUBAN ExPEDIrIoN.-The Washing.
ton Republic, Of the Goth, thus speaks
of the action of the Executive in refer
ence TO this expedition:
We are informed that the President
of the United States, Immediately upon
the receipt of the information. direc-
led orders TO be issued for the vessels
of the home squadron, as also for the
steamer Saranac, and frigate Congress,
to proceed forthwith to the island of
Cuba, for the purpose Of ascertaining
whether any military force, organized
in the United States, was proceeding
from thence to Cuba for the purpose
Of invading tha, island and revolution.
izing the Government; with express in.
structions, 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 reinforcement,
or of any arms or provisions under the
American flag, intended for such e1-
pedition or enterprise. In obedience
to these orders, we understand tha, the
steamer Saranac proceeded to sea on
Saturday last, and will probably reach
Cuba by Thursday next, where i, is
expected she will meet the German.
town, the Albany, and the Vixen.
1t is confidently expected that the
whole naval force ordered thither will
reach the island of Cuba before any
considerable number of those engaged
in the enterprise can possibly have eff.
fected landing, and thus prevent q
violation Of our treaty obligations oi
amiiy and peace with Spain.

The PROPOSED NEW CENT.--The

to learn, likely soon TO be aba,ed, by
the substitution of a neat and conven.

and containing sufficient of the more
precious metal Of silver to compensate
for the reduced size. The new coin, a
sample of which has been ordered o.
our Mint, to be submitted to Copsres:
for approval. has a silvery-copper sp

distinguish it from the gold or silver
coins of similar size, has hole in the

The FOURTH OF july AT Hand
Wilson & Co.'s grand Jubilee Pictorial
Brother Jonathan is now issuing from
their press in New York. As an illus.
trated historical sheet, it is of great val.
ue. The trial Of Sarah Good, for
witchcraft, at Salem, $50 years ago, so
graphically described by John Neal, is
here presented Qrom a spirited origi-
nal design by Matterson) in a large
and finely wrought picture occupying
an entire page Of the Jonathan. "Rais-
ing the FRS. Liberty Pole," is another
fine large engraving--the subject being
taken from Fenno Hoffman's descrip.
ton Of that interesting revolutionary
event in the Mohawk Valley. Beside
these grand features, the Jonathan
abounds in fun and satire for juvenile
readers; and two of the inner pages are
occupied by "Washington's Farewell
Address," printed in beautiful script
running.hand. and with Washington's
own signature. Altogether this ia
nous Jubilee Pictorial is superior TO
any we have seen in former years.
The price is, as usual, l2 cts. per copy.

THE TIMES

ST.. Louis CoUNTY.-The Wings of
St. Louis have nominated the following
ticket, which, it will be seen, is COM
plete, and presents an array of worth
and talent that will be hard 10
beat. We hope the Wings of other
counties will initiate their example, and
put forth their best men for every office
to be filled, and support and elect them.
We are decidedly opposed to all mon.
grel tickets, for any office and we
think the Wings generally are from the
fac. that such arrangements universally
result favorably 10 the locofocos. They
never make arrangements when they
can succeed on their own organization;
and whenever a locofoco wants 10
"trade," you may set i. down as "fix-
ed fact" tha, he is beat. mo mixing
no coalition" is our motto.
