CuBA.-The New York Sun of yesterday
morning has column of Cuban news, from
which we cannot learn as much as the editors
of that paper appear to derive from it. The
heading is well displayed, and in the following
words:
"Highly important news from Cuba! Open
ing of the Cuban revolution! Formation OF
guerilla parties in the mountains Of Coscorro.
Spanish troops in pursuit of the patriots Com
mencement of hostilities expected. Great ex-
element among the people Of Principe! Pro-
nunciamento expected to be made on the 4th
of July"
The Sun concludes as follows: -E
t'The Spanish war steamer Pizarro arrived at
this port yesterday afternoon from Havana, and
is at anchor off the Battery. What may be the
object of second visit of this steamer to our
port, within so short a time, can only be con-
jectured. 1t is not improbable that she is on
the lookout for filibusters,' or to gather re-
ports from the Spanish spies in this city"
