CRUISE OF THE WELAKA. The Savannah Morn
ing News contains report of the cruise of the We
laka, by which it appears that proceeding under or
ders of the General Government, she visited various
points of the Coast of Georgia and Florida, and
could discover organization for the purpose OF in
vaGing Cuba. There were some twenty or thirty at
Jacksonville who expressed themselves willing TO
join the expedition, and who expressed some disap-
pointment at the non-arrival of steamer which had
been expected transport those engaged in the ex-
petition. Information had been received that about
twenty miles above Brunswick there had been dis
covered an abandoned encampment, and scattering
bodies of men had been met at various points, AT
Daren a body of men connected with the expedition
had come down from the interior and gone South.
The report concludes as follows:
There cdn be no doubt that movement of con-
siderable magnitude has been on foot in relation TO
an expedition destined to Cuba. But 1t is also be-
lieved that from unknown to the public, the
main body of the men connected with it have dis
persed, and that between this city and Jacksonville,
Florida, there is organization at present.
But thing is certain that at all the points be-
tween the city and Jacksonville, the people, with
but few exceptions, sympathise with the Cubans and
willing and ready to lend them aid, and TO assist
any expedition which may be fitted out,
From all that we could gather il was not the In
tenton of the leaders actually organize the expe-
d,on in this country, but to sail organized TO soue
point beyond tie boundaries of the United States,
and there make such arrangements as should be DEEM

The CUBAN EXPEDITION ALL OVER. From recent
ACCOUNTS from Florida we induced to believe that
the alleged expedition to Cuba has been abandoned,
Persons who were understood TO- be engaged in it
have returned to their homes and tie Impression is
general thai no further effort will be made, at least
the leaders in the movement in the South have gone
West. We know not how true this is. but we feel
certain that the prompt measures taken by the gov
eminent have had the effect to prevent the sailing OF
the expedition.

For several miles from the Atlantic depot, the rails
are already laid. This depot is situated on Manzan-
