The Cuba Instruction.

In reference to the outbreak which has
caused much excitement in the Island of
Cuba, we have the following information
from respectable house in Havana, to its
CORES 2ondent in this city. This letter cor
responds with the lest accounts we find
from other sources, in attaching little i'm
portance to an outbreak which has, in some
quarters, been maynifed into revolution
: Boston Daily Adv, July ~.
HAVANA, July II, 1851.
In Puerto Principe about sixty young
men there committed the folly of going in
to the country around and proclaiming in
dependence They were Immediately
chased, and finding that none joined them
as they went along, they fled, throwing
down their arms in the utmost cons terna-
ton, and concealed themselves in the
mountains. Some OF them had been taken,
and amongst them a certain Aguero, said
to be one of the leaders. The governor
now receives information from that part
of the Island constantly, and by the latest
accounts everything was perfectly quiet.
Eevery body there is highly dspleased
at this crazy attempt, which must inllict
terror and CONSERVATION in the bosom Of
so many quiet, honest and respectable
families and the worst of al! is that the
indscrelion Of these misguided young men
subjects them to the penalty OF death.

other articles which he was taking TO some

OF horses hoois, and afterwards heard six or
eight discharges ofiire.arms, when he saw
twenty mounted men gallop past the

The Lieutenant Governor questioned
them, but they were SO frightened that
they only replied by firing two shots Il,
him, while he was standing at the window.
They afterwards made Tor the "Sabaha,'
where they disappeared nstantaneously
without it being known which road they
had taken. The Lieutenant Governor
likewise says that one horse was killed
and two wounded, by the shots which were
/ fired. Such was the disorder with which
these persons entered the town, that they
abandoned their arms and accoutrements

SrEcK OF WAn.-Under this head the
Houston (TeAas) Telegraph says, tina,
great excitement exists along the frontier
against the Mexicans, who harbor runaway
negroes and refuse to deliver them up. The
Telegraph says, that a large party of armed
Texans had assembled near Preside, and
threatened to take the town if the iugitives
were not surrendered. 1t is iu,ima,ed
that there IRE not less than two thousand
fugitive slaves in the Mexican towns be-
tween the mouth of the Rio Grande and
Preside. In Santa Rosa there are forty
iugitives who escaped from one plantation
in Arkansas. The owner of them has
made many efforts to induce them to re
turn 10 Arkansas, but in vain. They boas,
that they are in a free country, and per.
mitted to enjoy equal privileges with the
Mexicans. About two hundred iugl,ives
from Texas crossed at ono OF the principal
ferries on the Rio Grande during the las,
two years. The Telegraph says, that these
things will not long be tolerated by the
Texan citizens, and unless some measures
are adopted by the Government to proven,
the mischief, they will arm themselves and
make ioray upon the Mexican towns to
recover their property. A company of
ninety men, well armed and equipped, will
soon be marched into Santa Rosa, if GER
tain slaves are rot given up; and five hun.
dred or thousand men may follow them,
should they meet with opposition from the
Mexican au,horties.-tN. q. Pic, 9th.

Reported Insurrection in Cuba

The most reliable of the New York Presses
do not appear to place any confidence in the re-.
port "a teegraphic account of which we pub
li'hed yesterday of a serious in.urrectionary
movement having taken place in the island OF
Cuba. The Commercial Advertiser Of Tues day
evening speaks Of the runor as follows:
Some vague and contradictory intelligence
from Havsna has thrown at least one Of our
morning contemporaries into large letter ex-
oitement. Readers will probably remember
that about ten days ago we published an &C.
count TO the effect that of certain parties liable
to arrest for cons piracy at Puerto Principe
about twenty had fled to the mountains, where
they found security, were supplied with provi-
SLOWS from the town, had been joined by few
other, IN like danger Of arrest, and that an at
tempt of the authorities to reach and capture
them had failed. We apprehend, carefully
weighing all the statements, that these are the
simple facts which have been magniiied into
revolution, the first blow struck, former news
confirmed revolt of the Princi panos. troops
driven back with much more of the same sort.
II is rather to bad this hot weather."
In confirmation Of the above we received laat
night, by way of Savannah, advices from Ha.
vana to the 18th inst, which pronounce the re.
port of an instruction at Principe to have been
sheer fabrication. II at first created some ex.
element at Havana but il soon subsidized.
