IMPORTANT QUESTION SETTLED.-For long
time past large portion of the people of Cincin-

to the effect that the introduction of the three cent
coin there would have on the price of glasses of
quor and cigars. There six cent party snd
a three cent party. The appearance of the coin
ended all cavil. The three party were largely
triumphant. The three cent pieces are now circu-
lating largely in Cincinnati, is the liquor. In
this regard, the three cent pieces curse to
the Door. No good without attendant evil.

CORRESPONDENCE. Of the Charleston News.

KEYWEsr, May %, 1s5l.-The U. S. steamer
Saranac came into port at 10 A. NJ, to-day, direct
from Pensacola but as yet have not learned her
news, or the names of her officers. She is doubt
less on the q,ti vive for the Cuba Expedition,
which, rumor says will organize near the Coast OF
Florida, and take its final departure thence for La
Lismpra feel Isia de Cuba.
We INDUCED the hope that another attempt
would be made by the branch of the Coast Survey
on duty here, to ascertain the soundings between
the Cuba and Florida shores but the matter has
been unavoidably postponed till next fall. The
configuration of the oceans bed is, at this moment
a most interesting question and we look forward
to the results of Lieut.. Rodgers labors to throw
some light upon it with much curiosity. He has
been for many months engaged, with party and
the steamer Hetze in the survey of this harbor and
its various channels and has performed more labor
in the same time than probably has ever been done
by similar force. In his late ocean soundings, he
got 300 fathoms about twelve miles from the Reef
700 fathoms about twenty-five miles from the
Reef; and few miles further off, got no bottom
with 5000 fathoms of line. At this depth the weight
of the column Of water displaced by the lead was
so great, that all the force Of ive-horse- power
engine could not move it.
