be removed on account of britlleness or any

Tho Cuban Expedition.

We subjoin such information as has reached
us from various quarters in relation to the organ
ization of an armed expedition against the
Island of CUBA. We have no faith in the tele-
graphic despatch from New Orleans published
in our paper of yesterday, to the effect that this
criminal enterprise had been abandoned. There
will doubtless be numerous feints, and false re
in its design of REFRESHING the expedition.

9Th. .sries of measures to which have alluded
ara regarded by me as a settlement, in principle
and substance-a final settement-of the danger
Gus and exciting subjects which they embraced. :"
..Bv that adjustment we have been rescued from
the wide and boundless agitation thatsurrounded
{. us, and have a firm, distinct, and legal ground
to rest upon. And the occasion, trust, will JUS
. tify me In ExHoRrISG my couNTRYMEN TO RALLY
UPON AND MAIsrAIN THAT GROUND as the BEST If
not the only means, of restoring peace and quiet
to the country, and maintaining inviolate the IN
. tegrity of the Union.'
[PREsIDEsr FILLmoRE's MESSAGE.
1.-The Presidents message, at the opening ofthe
present session of Congress, expresses fully and
plainly his own and the unanimous opinion OF all
those associated with him in the Executive admin
. istration of the Government, in regard to what
are called the Adjustment or Compromise mea-
sures of last session That opinion is, that those
measures should be regarded in principle as
a final settlement of the dangerous and exciting
subjects which they embrace; that though they
were not free from imperfections. yet, in their
mutual dependence and connexion, they formed
a system Of compromise the most conciliatory
and best for the entire country that could be OBJ
. tanned from conflicting sectional interest and
. opinions, and that therefore they should be nd
6 hered to, until time and experience should de-
monstrate the necessity of further legislation to
guard against evasion abuse. That opinion, 90
Ia as know, remains entirely unchanged, and
will be acted upon steadily and decisively. The
peace of the country requires this; the security OF
the Constitution requires this and every conside-
ration of the public good demands this. If the
Administration cannot stand upon the principles
ofthe message it does not expect to stand at all"
