Summary OF the Latest Intelligence,
Cur information from Cuba, this morning, is
faught With the most painful interest. so far as
regards the fate Of the revolutonists The steamer
Cherokee, ct New Orleans, with dates from Ha-
vana to the 3lst ult, reports that General Lopez,
and nearly al his followers, had been captured and
executed. OF the correctness of this report we
shsll ascertain, the steamer Empire City is
Abou. due at this port, with intelligence from Ha-
rans also to the 3ist uit. She viii, no doubt, ar
Sve in the course of the day.
Geographic dispatches from the South, con-
ssrning Cuban affairs, continue TO arrive, and those
that We received last evening will be found under
snI usual head. We refrain from making any COM
ment upon them, because il is not at all unlikely
they will be contradicted tomorrow. Besides this,
the news of the Empire City will most likely ob-
riate all necessity for Comment conjecture, specu
lation. From the time of the report Of the first
sutbreak in Cuba 10 the present, there has been
great deal Of contradiction, if not do vn-rig lying,
by telegraph, concerning Cuban affairs, and we
consequently place but little reliance on any de-
spatch that reaches from the South on the subject,
anless corroborated Dy facts, which, under the pre-
sent circumstances, are unattsinable.
We received, by telegraph, announcements Of
the death of the Bishop of View Brunswick, and the
severe illness Of the Hon. Levi Woodbury. who is
represented to be IN very critical sta;e.
earaaua, Valparaiso, and the Ladrone
EsIands.
Our columns, to-day, contain variety Of intelli-
eence from several remote parts Of this continent,
and from the LadIone Isands-or Island OF Thieves,
as the discoverer, Magellan, called them in 1920.
The news from California, brought by the Prone
theus steamer, by the Nicaragua route, is I'M
Important, except in one respect, and in that pre-
snts points of great interest The prospect is that
the production Of the gold diggng for the present
Season will be very large. The accounts from the
various mining districts represent that the aborers
are probably rewarded for their toll and enterprise;
and the improved methods Of working are rapidly
bringing about rich golden results. Indeed, from
The statements which are made, and which We have
70 reason to doubt, there will be gold yielded
by California this season than at any preceding
one; and the tide Of emigration continues steadily
20 set IN that direction, adding something to the
permanent population every month, il seems net
too sanguine belief that there will continue to be
Z steady and profitable market the shores Of the
Pacific. Independent of the golden attractions Of
the region the evident tendency Of that part Of the
continent ct 9 future day, to blend the character
istics Of oriental opulence With the enterprise Of
the Anglo saxon race, will have its influence in
adding largely to the Fixed and settled population
Of the State. Already towns aud cities have sprung
from the soil as IL by enchan.ment and in a few
years, by means Of Chinese laborers, many Of the
oriental arts will he introduced to compete with
the Celestial Empire for the worlds markets. The
resources Of the soil in gold alone will not be ex.
harsted in a half century, perhaps, and in that
time civilization will make wonderful progress on
the whole coas. Of the PaeiG,.
We have from Oregon, also, some news Of a very
interesting character, with regard to the success Of
cur military forces in taat region against the hos
tile tribes Of aborigines, who have recently made
savage incursions upon the settlements Of the emf
grants We learn with pleasure, too, that several
srties heretofore supposed to la fallen under tie
vengeance Of the Indians, have been discovered
Elive-some Of thorn having made their way to the
protected settlements Of our people Fall parsicu-
lars viii be found in our columns.
The news from Nicaragua Is OF a very singular
kind, far the politics Of hat republic are con-
eerned. Our correspondence gives some insight
into ne views, purposes and position Of the tro
parties. I. appears TIA. there are now two govern
