COMMODORE PARKER AT Havana
A letter from Havana to the New Or

ence of Com. Parker, saws:
"Since his arrival he has been enga-
ged in investigating the circumstances
connected with the inhuman butcherv
of Crittcnden and his forty.nine COM
panions, and the atrocities perpetrated
upon their lifeless bodies by the Span
ish populace here. have been inform
ed that several gentlemen of the highest
responsibility have waited upon the
Commodore, and related to him what
they saw themselves in the streets and
public places the town on the day and
night of the execution. The afirma-
tons of these gentlemen more than bear
out all that has been related by corres-
pondents from here relative to the at
trocities. The details are of too dis
gushing and indecent nature to be re-
lated in the public prints; and, TO one

THE MISTRESS OF THE SEAs.-The
London Shipping Gazette has this para
graph, in the course ofan article upon
the future of America:-
"We have no desire, at present to en-
ter upon any question of disputed poll
cy; but We wish to record our opinion
that the empire of the seas must before
long, be coded to America; its perse-
vering enterprise, its great and accruing
wealth, are certain to secure this prize
nor will England be in asituation to dis
pute it with her. Without this crown
ing capital to its power, the onward
march OF the United States to what we
believe will be overwhelming greatness
might not be so speedily accomplished
but America, as mistress of the ocean
must overstrde the civilized world"
A Touch OMAN exchange, speaking of q
recent tornado which visited Medford and Wes

the Congressional excitement.
The merits and dem-riis of the sever

that Fair Hill is the Banner Evans Dis
trict. 1t certainly was something to
reduce NcCullough's majority there to
III, where he had before received as
high as 900. This District has been
ccnsured by other parts of the county;

gained about twenty on the wing vote as
it stands here this year.

HE VICTIMS OF THE LorEz ExpED1-
TloN.-A letter received in Washington
from Robert H. Ellis, a Captain in the
late expedition of Lopez against the Is
land of Cuba, and who is now a prisoner
at Havana, states that amongst the many
promising young men who lost their
lives in that unfortunate enterprise, are
Beverly Waugh, formerly of Washing
ton city, and son ofMr. Gustavus Har-
risen, ofGeorgetown. The Intelligent
Ger says that the parents of at least one
OF these young men were not aware that
he had left New Orleans, and suggests
the propriety of those having 1t in their
power, to publish full list of all who
went on board the Pampero. The
number isstated at from four hundred
and fifty to five hundred, and yet We
know positively ofthe fate of less than
one hall-the fifty who We're executed
at Havana, and the hundred and fifty
who are now prisoners. All the res.
have most probably persisted, and 1t Is
due to their friends and relatives that
their melancholy fate should be made
known.

for the preservation of the colony of Gu
ba from American invaders. The min
lster Of foreign affairs and the Spanish

and England, it is curiousIy stated, are
decided on preventing arupture between
Spain and the United States, and in
preserving for the former her valuable
colony, but with the introduction of
some indispensable reforms in the gem
eral government OF Cuba. A French
steamer was TO leave Hsvre on Tuesday
for " ashington, with dispatches from
the French government and the Ameri-

had some warm Democratic friends who
rendered him especial service. We
