HAVANA, May II, 1851
In political matters there 10 nothing of special in
terest to communicate, and the people seem to be-
eve that the threatened invasion has been averted
by the preventive acts of the Government of the
United States. At least the best informed of them
think thus; but the multitude will doubtless con-
tinue to identify the freebootcrs with the govern
ment of the country from which they come; more
especially since the resident foreigners here of all
nations, whose opinions have much weight, are the
most strenuous asserters of the connivance of tho
officials, at Washington, with the lawless acts
of the deluded followers Of the Cuban "juntar."
Before tho date of my last, some ten twelve
men, most of them young and of good family, were
sent here from Principe and conducted to prison,
where, however. am told, they not treated
with the usual severity of State prisoners. would
not mention this until ascertained its truth; but
Of course we knotc nothing Of the charges against
them. Many other arrests have been made, and
the government has its hands full Of this kind of
work. am told, however, that uery severe mea-
sures ara not likely to be adopted; the government
seeks to suppress the action rather than enforce the
punishment OF the revolutionists.

Of the schooner Rosina, that on the 26th ulbmo,

nearly full of water. and with little hope OF being
saved. Her captain had even given up all thought

four days Of incessant labor, succeeded in land
ing not only the armament and ammunition of the
Colon, but her provisions On tho fourth day the
Spanish war steamer Pizarro came up, but, after
several frutleas attempts, was unable to get her
of. Captain Locke then set himself TO work land
ing her coal. and this accomplished, the Pizarro
succeeded in hauling her off the reef. Although
getting afioat, her large crew were enabled to
keep her free. Tho Pizzaro then took the arma
ment Of the Colon on board, and finally got aground

From the Utica Daily Gazette.

The SLAVERY DrscussioN--ITs REsULr.-Wc feel
ordinary qualification in tho issue of the slavery
discussion in the General Assembly. The way in
which that discussion sprang up our readers have
learned from our report 1t has ended in the AS
semblys very wisely determining to ia Ike no action
on the matters which il involved. The right of
free speech was fully personal---very. abolitonist
was allowed to free HIMSELF men who had for wears
been sadly bored with wretchcd commonplace on
the subject OF slavery consented with marvellous
patience TO be bored once more; but an overwhelm-
ing majority refused to let great church be
dragged any longer into vexatious and barren
agitation
Dickinson, OF the Western Reserve. was productive
of the very best results. 1t brought OUT from three
Of the southern delegates. speeches that wero not
only forciblc, but characterized by manly and a
christian temper. The impression made was deep,
and will be lasting Truths were told of which
many northern men were not aware, and which
they will not rapidly forget.
We can bear witness to the difficulties that block
tho path of southern clergymen in their action on
slavery, and il is the sheerest ignorance or wicked
ness that would enhance them by a pernicious in
reference. And we may say. that if there is a
body of men in the land who deserve the respect
and kindness and confidence Of tho church to which
they belong, that body is the New School Presby-
terians of the South. They have sacrificed much /;
they deserve much. Mr.. Dickinson received unani-
nous permission to withdraw his resolution
This action of the General Assembly is not con-
fined in its benefit to the Presbyterian Church; it
will affect powerfully for good the political body;
il will strengthen the bonds of our Union
We are happy to say that President Fillmore and
Attorney General Crittenden markedly congratu-
lated some of the commissioners on the results of
the disoussion Of yesterday they felt that its effects
would be widely and variedly beneficial
