The CUBAN INvAsIoN-TuE U

THE CUBAN INvAsIoN-TnE U.
s. OFFICERS AT New ORLEANS
The Washington correspondent Of the
N. Y. Journal Of Commerce says:
l stated, the other day, that the
officers Of the United States Govern.
at New Oriea,.s did not interposc any
obstruction to the fitting out of the
Lopez Expedition against Cuba.--
They we're, Of course, apprized that
the expedition was on foot, and the
troops destined for it openly drilled.
The Pampero was fitted out, open.
ly and without disguise as to her
objects, and she was no. required to
clear at the Custom House.
I now learn that General Twiggs,
who is in command Of the Southern
military district, and who had instruc.
tons to keep a watch over these en-.
terprises, gave notice early in July,
to the Collector Of the port Of New
Orleans, that an expedition against
Cuba was on foot. The Collector
ignored the fact; and the day after
the Pampero sailed, wrote to Gen.
Twiggs that he was quite unacquain-
ted with the movement.
The Government is, Of course, in
! formed as to the in6delity Of their
Filibustero officers. If the Govern.
ment officers are Filibusters, tho ad.
ministration might as we'll issue q
Filibuster proclamation, at once
The United States Marshal for the
Louisiana District is here now, and

trict Attorney told them, that i: is
quite idle for the Government, tc

ais for violations Of the law Of 1915
in any case where Cuba is concerned
In some former cases, the Marsha

cent information from Cuba, in regard

l am inclined to think-as many

have been intercepted by the Pizarro
or any Cuban naval force: for it is
!. quite certain that no information Of
his expedition preceded him. The

was undoubtedly too slow, and per

1t was rumored that he intended t
take her OR any Spanish vessel.
