INVASION OF CUBA.
Information has, we understand, been
received in this city, that the parties
heretofore engaged in the enterprise
against the Island Of Cuba have not yet
abandoned their criminal intentions,
but threaten that they will renew the
attempt few months hence. 1t is said
that some hundreds of those who have
been engaged for the purpose, are 10
be sent TO Cuba during the summer in
small numbers, by different vessels, as
me chanics seeking employment on the
Island in their respective professions,
but who will secretly provide them
selves with arms, and be prepared in a
body TO join any armed expedition
which may succeed in landing.
It's really melancholy to think that
there is any portion of the people of
the United States who will willingly
Join in or aid such reckless and unprin'
cipled proceedings. AS TO the deluded
men who are thus made the tools of
designing persons, they should recolecl
that the Spanish authorities are OF
course constantly and fully advised OF
all such movements; that the most v igi,
Ian, lookout will oe kept upon all stran
gers coming into the Island, particular
" when an unusual number arrive
from the United States without any os
tcnsible object in the way Of business
and if they are not Immediately order
ed out Of the Island, they would, nc
doubt, be the first victims sacrificed in
case of an attempted invasion.
The utter heartlessness Of the lead,
ers of this disreputable enterprise i:
fully exhibited in thus sending into
such imminent jeopardy of liberty OF
life The poor ignorant men whom they
have deceived by false representations
and spacious promises, which are ncveI
intended to be, and which cannot be
fulfilled.
A successful invasion of CUBA by A.;
private expedition we look upon as one
of the most hopeless of all undertaking
No, only would our own Governmen
exercise the utmost vigilance to breal
up and Illustrate any attempt of th'
kind either by the arrest of the par
ties Gnd the seizure of their vessel be
fore leaving the United States, or thei
capture on the ocean by American
cruisers, but the Spanish Governmen
has such numerous and powerful
steam and sailing naval force on tn
| coast Of Cuba as 10 render any privat
expedition entirely inadequate to cop
, with it. So that it would be next TO,
not quite, impossible to effect landing
. Were the landing, however, eve
4 effected, the overwhelming large mil
n tary force on the Island would rende
death or capture inevitable to all thOs
p engaged, and all who should fall int
the power of the Spanish Governmer
could only expect an ignominious deaf
"a without the right or expectation
" call upon their own GOyernment for i
# interference in their favor. In the la
!. attempt, when the landing was eilecit

% more bravely or faithfully than did Il

e, place, and they fully disproycd the sill
