LATER FROM HAVANA.

By an arrival at Charleston the Courier Of that
city has advices from Havana to the 9th instant,
six days later than before received.
On the 5th instant intelligence was received at
Havana respecting the movements Of Lopez, which
caused great excitement and all the Spanish vessels
of war and steamers were ordered out Immediately
to cruise along the coast. The Courier says:
"Full files of the Faro Industrial up the 7h instant,
inclusive throw but little light the progress Of
in the Island We perceive therein addresses from the
officials Of Cienfuegos, Trinidad de Cuba, Puerto Pa-
cpe and Villa Clara, stating that the dsascted sur
rendering themselves, and that many prisoners had been
taken. The very tenor, however, of these addresses tends
to demonstrate that the aspect Of affairs is serious than
they would have the people Of the island imagine, and that
an organized revolution in existence But notwithsand-
ing the political troubles, strange to say, commercial mat
ters seem unaffected by them"

FROM SOUTH AMERICA.

The Rio Janeiro Journal do Commerce. Of
July 9th gives news from Buenos Ayres to the
9th of June, and Montevideo to the 29th. The
Government of Montevideo had sent the steamer
w. ]. Pease, with Senor Herrera the Minister Of
Foreign Affairs, up the river Uruguay, to confer with
the Generals Urqulza and Garzon. On the 18th
Of June, Herrera was with the two Generals. The
Brazilian Admiral Grenfell also went up the river
in the steamer Recife. Gen. Oribe, an officer of
the Buenos Ayres forces, was stationed on the
river to forbid the passage of the Brazil flag No
attention was paid to the message, and no opposi-
ton was made by the forces Of Oribe. It is said
that the troops Of Orbe began to desert the garrison
Of Salto on the 18th of June, and company oi
| soldiers on the 2Oth passed over to Gen. Garzon
Urquiza has closed the ports Of Entrerios against
the vessels Of Buenos Ayres. The Governors Of
Entrerios and Montevideo have agreed to cooperate
against Rosas.

The annexation Of Cuba would be far more ia.
tai blow to the South, far slavery concerned
than the acquisition of California is alleged to have
been. Its chief advantages would enuIc directly
and Immediately to the.North. The sugar interes,
of the South could not stand moment against COM
petition with Cuba, when the sugar of that island
should be admitted, as it would in the event Of an
nexa,ion, duty free. The North would, besides
find in Cuba new and immense market for its
staple products of flour, beef, pork, machinery i'm
plements, and manufactures Of every kind So
strong is the belief Of Northern advantages to be
derived from the measure, we have heard strong
and active opponents Of slavery declare their desire
that Cuba should come into the Union, with OF
without slavery, as she might elect. Our Southern
friends, if they are wise will look twice, and care
fully too, at this scheme of Cuban independence
before they commit themselves in its favor II has
sharp edge on one side Of it, they may feel well
assured. To the North it would be new and vast
field of adventurous enterprise, wealth, and power
To the South it would be drain and most formd
able competitor. Register.

MISSISSIPPI.

The Vicksburg Wing Of the I'd instant contains
a pretty full report of the proceedings at Union
Mass Meeting held at Canton. The meeting con-
tinued two days; numbers of the most eminent men
of that party were present The speakers, the first
day, were Gen. JOHN d. FREEMAN, VIM. YEReER,
ESQ.,, Gen. w. r. MILES, Judge A. r. JOHNSON, Mr..
LUcKETT, and that distinguished citizen of Alabama,
Hon. A. F. HOPKINS. Of his speech the editor of
the Wing, who was present, says:
The hour of speaking having arrived the Rev. Mr. ToDD
invoked in prayer The Ruler Of the Universe, the bless
ings Of Heaven Gen. HEsRr then introduced to the
assemblage the Hon. A. F. HoPKISs of Alabama who ad-
dressed the audience for about hours in agumentave
and eloquent strain in which he ably reviewed the question.
at se and urged The acquescence in and the support Of the
Compromise measures"
On the second day the speaking was commenced
by Judge SHARKEY. The interest manifested to
hear him is said to have been intense. The editor
of the Whig closes quite lengthy report of his
speech with this paragraph:
'He contrased the principles of the Union party, and
their tendency to preserve Government which had confer
red such manifold blessings upon mankind with the pn-
cpes policy, and consequences Of secession in such an
pressve manner to excite the highest enthusiasm n the
friends Of united Republican Govern men and to
the secesons 70 snudder as though they stood upon the
brink Of the precpice to which they would lead u.s. AT
moment his hearers would besow breathless attention. at
another silent but eloquent tears would down the

burst Of applause from his immense auditory would stare the
ear like an electric shock"
Judge SHARKEY was followed by WIN. H. JOHN
SON, Esq. and w. A. LAKE, Esq Mr.. ARTHUR,
of the Whig, winds up his account with this
sentence:
Dung the whole of the days there was no scene Of
disorder disturb the pleasure of this social and political
gathering and if il had not been for the dsconsoate and
detected phyosnonies Of the secessionss and their ptiabe
wainss, every one would have been perfectly happy

From the Moniteur Beige Of the 29th of las,
month we learn that ]. G. G. KENNEDY, Esq, the
Chief of the Census Bureau of the United States,
lin the Department Of the Interior was at that time
at Brussels, pursuing the objects Of public cha
racter with which he had been charged, in refe-
renee to National Statistics, by that Department.
If the fact of his being there had not been directly
stated, we should have recognised his hand in a
very clear and perspicuous statement Of the census
feature of the Government Of the United States,
and the particular acquisitions and results under
our last Census.
The statistical department of the Government Of
Belgium is, as might be supposed from the anti.
quity of its institutions, and its narrower limits
more perfect in its details in some of its branches
than that of the United States and especially in all
that relates to the agricultural production Of the
country, its habits, and its progress. In these re-
spects it cannot be doubted that information may be
obtained from abroad through the agency of Mr.
KENNEDY which will be of much advantage to the
United States in arrangements at the next recur
renee of our decennial Census.
