Later from Havana,

BY the U. S. Mail steamship Empire
City, Captain Windle, we have files of our
Havana exchanges to the 9TH inst
From the continued argument and expla-
nations in the Havana papers on the Cres-
cent City affair, we are disposed to believe
that recent events have caused no little ex-
citement there
The DiariO de la Marina gives the fol-
lowing account of the return of the Crescent
City to Havana:
"The steamship Crescent City, on her
return from New Orleans, to New York,
touched this morning in our port, doubtless
in order to comply with her contract with
the Government Of the United States. No
change having taken place in her crew list,
she remained entirely without communica-
tion during her short stay in port, and de-
parted about IL o'clock Neither the cap
tain of the Crescent City, nor her pas
sengers, were wanting in the slightest de-
gree in due respect to public decorum, or
to merited respect for the orders of our
authorities %
The next day the same paper makes the
following correction:
I'm stating that the Crescent City re-
mained entirely without communication, ,
yesterday, it must be understood to be so far
as regards the landing or taking ON board of
the mails or passengers, or the enjoyment
Of the slightest liberty of free intercourse
The communications that passed through
the intervention of the Captain of the Port,
and with the consent of the authorities are
not included in the meaning of our words +"

The GARDINER CAsE..-The Commis.
sioners appointed by the President to 90 to
Mexico and investigate the Gardiner case,
and visit his pretended mines, if they can be
found, are Captain French, of the Army,
and Lieut.. Hunter, Inventor of the prOpel.
ler} of the Navy.
The Senate Committee appointed, on their
part, Capt. Dupont, of the Navy, Samuel A.
Partride, and Buckingham Smith, who was
lately Secretary of Legation in Mexico
Gardiner has refused to accompany the
Commission, for the alleged reason that one
of them. Mr., Smith, is said to be prejudiced
against his claim, as every one now is, since
the report of the House Committee.
But the Commissioners will proceed to
Mexico, and make inquiries as to various
claims, under the instructions of the Com.

Eile Esthkallss Canal.

The New York Eoeniug Post says the
route of this canal ''across the Isthmus, from
some port on the Gulf Of Darien to San
Miguel, cn the Pacific, is alleged to possess
advantages over all others, In the first
place, the distance across is only fifty miles,
twenty Of which is already furnished with a
navigable river Oh the Atlantic side; and in
the second place, no locks, and no motive
power to propel vessels through the canal,
will be required. The motive power is to
be the tide through the canal. The tide on
the Pacific side, it is said, will have twenty
four feet rise and fall, while in the Gulf it
will be about as many inches; this, it is
thought, will furnish a tide each way, with
head sufficient to propel vessels across the
Isthmus at a single tide, without any other
aid.
The canal is to be 30 feet deep, and sufic-
emily wide to accommodate vessels of any
tonnage. The deepest cut is to be only l25
feet, and the cost is estimated at s. ,0OO. 900.
Fox and Henderson, the architects of the
Crystal Palace, are the prominent parties in
the undertaking. Abbot Lawrence is said
to have an interest in the enterprise A
survey of the entire route has been made by
an eminent English engineer, Mr.. Gisborn
and from his report the above facts are CLEAN
ed by the Post.

The Crescent City Affair and the
Administrations.

The Washington Republic, of the 10th
inst, announces that the steam frigate Pow
haitian, bearing the broad penant of Commo-
dore Newton, of the Home Squadron, has
orders to proceed forthwith from New York
to Havana, taking Judge Conking, the re-
Gently appointed Minister to the Republic of
Mexico, to that port, to enable him to meet
the British steam packet on the 24th inst,
in which the Judge desires to take passage
to Vera Cruz. The Republic also says that
the sloop-of-war Cyane, which had left New
York, had orders to report at Pensacola,
where she will remain for the present, and
then, after briefly stating the facts in rela-
ton to the detention of the bark Cornela at
Havana, and in relation to the Crescent City
affair proceeds to say:
This is the statement as it is now before
the American people; and we admit that if
the facts be as they are thus described, they
afford justification for much of the criticism
that has emanated from the press upon the
subject
At present, however, we are in possession
Of only e.5 21arte representations. Our Go
vernment have no knowledge of either of the
cases beyond that derived from the publish
ed accounts, which, however accurate in their
general tenor, scarcely form satisfactory data
for the direction of governmental policy.
With the view Of ascertaining the whole
aspect of the affair, it is understood that
Judge Conkhng has been instructed, during
his stay at Havana, to obtain full and au-
thentic statement of the facts connected with
the proceedings. The country will perceive,
therefore, that the Government are not in
different to the force of the events, or un-
mindful of the steps which they have rend-
cred necessary. What further action may
be called for in the premises, is a question
altogether dependent upon the result of the
enquiry now authorized.

AN IMMENSE WoRK.-We see by the
Cincinnati papers that their tunnel is adver-
tised for letting. The bills on the north
side rise about two hundred feet above the
upper plain of the town, obstrueting, except
in one direction, the free access OF railways
to the upper part of the town. A company
has been formed to tunnel the hill, for the
benefit of all the railways approaching from
the Ohio side, and doubtless will be immense.
ly useful This tunnel will be G0O0 feet in
length, and will have 1000 feet of side cut.
tings. 1t is intended to lay it with four
tracks, and thus provide free and safe en-
trance in the city for six or eight different
railways which will each contribute to its
receipts and thus make it very profitable
stock.

FUGITIvE SLAvEs.-A telegraph des-
patch from Sandusky, Ohio, says that in
tense excitement exists there in consequence
of an attempt to carry back a number of fu-
gitive slaves who had made their escape
from Kentucky, and reached Sandusky last
night.
They were escorted to boat by their
friends and the citizens, and the pursuers
from Kentucky then attempted to capture
them
They were, however, prevented by citi-
zens of both colors, and after sharp strug-
gle the slaves escaped to the Canada shore.
The pursuers from Kentucky state that they
will make the citizens concerned in the af-
fair responsible for its consequences.

The Overland Emigration 10 C,i
ifOrnia.

The Sacramento Times and Trapscr;,,
of Sept. 1st, says:
"1he latest accounts of the overland in
migration come through letter from C;an
Denver. On the oath of August the Con
eral was at the Upper Relief Station he

ity of grass was beginning to be felt on tbo
immigrant road, and, as a consequence
teams did not come through in as GOOD ,
condition as those of the advance trains
The health of the immigrants contipno,
good, as general thing, although few
cases of diarrhea have occurred, in some
resembling cholera, which proved fatal in
few instances. A comfortable hospital has
been established on Carson river. located
in beautiful grove of trees, with excellent
spring water near by, where the sick are
furnished with every comfort, and supplied
with sufficient means to reach California on
their recovery.
The heaviest amount of the immicrotion
has probably passed the Sink of Humboldt
ere this, ano it is gratifying to know that
thus far, the suffering on the much-dreaded
overland route has been very inconsidera.

has doubtless contributed greatly to produce
this happy result, and the State will ever
have cause to be proud of the generous as.
sistance rendered OF all the endeavors Of
the relief train, the establishment of water
station in the midst of the great desert to
allay the parching thirst of thousands, has
been the most acceptable to immigrants
1t is said that women and children frequent

parched and swollen till forced out of their
mouths; and when water is furnished them.
and they learn the debt due to California,
their gratitude knows no bounds"
Washington telegraph., 1852-11-03

RUMORED ATD.-It is rumored that the
English and French Governments have both
rendered their aid to Spain, which is the
cause of the high-handed transaction in for
bidding the Crescent City to land her mails
at Havana, and also that the Government
of Peru has solicited the aid of both these
powers to prevent our citizens from taking
guano from the Labos Islands Whether
the recent contract with French company
to take guano from the Chinche Islands had
anything to do with the question, does not
yet appear.

Equestrian statue Of Gen. Jack
son.

We visited yesterday, the studio and work
shop of Mr.. Clark Mills the culptor, who
has, as is generally known, the contract for
making the bronze equestrian statue of Gen.
jackson. Mr.. Mills had just made the last
casting, and is now preparing to finish and
elevate the statue preparatory to its being
removed to Fayette Square. He informs
us that he has commenced to build the pc
destal, the appropriation of five thousand
dollars by Congress having been placed in
his hands for that purpose and he confidently
expects to have the statue ready to be inau-
gurated on the Sth of January next
Most other statues in a rearing position
are supported by prop under the belly, or
by some other means equally unnatural and
unsig ightly. But Mr.. Mills has not even the
support of the tail of the horse-it is on its
hind feet only--and that with mass of
metal greater than in the statue of the Duke
of Wellington, and only sixteen hundred
pounds less than is in that of Peter the
Great. The statue of Peter the Great
weighs 36, ,635 lbs, and that of jackson will
weigh about $4,000 lbs. The artist has
taken the attitude of horse at the moment
when all its muscular force is in play in
bringing itself in a rearing position. This
not only brings the centre of gravity in a
diving line through the half of the horse and
rider, but gives degree Of animation and
grace, at once natural and beautiful which
cannot be obtained in any other attitude.
1t has been said by artists and travellers,
and among them by Upper, the English
poet that if Mr. Mills succeeds, he would
immortalize himself. Many have doubted
they could not realize the fact that genius
superior to art that a gentleman who has
never seen old masters, nor studied under
the modern-who has never been out of his
own country, and, consequently, never seen
an equestrian statue-that he could design
and execute colossal and beautiful work
OF his character. Artists and founders have
said that there was not a foundry in the
United States where such work could be
cast; but he has done it by building found
ry, which does not look large enough to cast
plough-share. TO make such immense
castings in such place appears an impossi-
bility; but this gentleman, like Mirabeau,
seems not to comprehend that word For
four years-which, after all, is a shorter
time than such statue has ever been made
betore-he has worked against difficulties
which appeared insurmountable. He has
overcome them. The amount of the con-
tract, $4,000 will not pay his expenses,
and yet he was determined to accomplish
the work. Washington Union.

INVASION OF ENGLAND-R Il uSSian Car
airy Iactics-No invaders can ever land
a force of cavalry of horses for the artillery
Napoleon, in his threatened invasion, was so
aware of this that he made little or no ar
rangement of embarking horses, but each
boat was provided with saddlery and artille-
ry harness, to be put on British horses as
soon as landed quite forgetting that if all
horses on his landing had been driven to
the interior this simple maneuvre would
have rendered the cavalry and artillery use
less. But the improved musket-rife can
also render the cavalry and artillery useless
at nine hundred yards distance, and the
nail ball, out of the old musket, can do the
same (as [ have witnessed) at distance of
six hundred and fifty yards. But suppose
| am said to be mistaken as to cavalry and
artillery | believe at this moment there is
not a regiment of cavalry that could be
brought to make an effective charge against
well served feld-battery, owing to the con-
fusion and fear of the horses at the noise
and smoke of the cannon To remedy this
and give the horses confidence, the Russians
in the wars of the Caucasus in drilling had
batteries before the watering places of the
cavalry. The cavalry got no water the
morning of the drill, but after some hours
Of hard work the horses became thirsty
The cavalry were posted in front of the
field-batteries, which began to play. Loose
reins were given, and at full gallop the cav
airy passed between the guns of the bate
ries, and thus lost fear of artillery.

Cuban Movement.

The New York Sun tells us that the
Cuban Juaato have just had another meet
ing in that city. at which fifth member
of the Executive Council was elected, and
at which a beautiful flag for free Cuba
presented by Mr.. Mills, waved its welcome
to the patriots, and was saluted with cnthu-
siasm by the assemblage. The Sun then
goes on to let us know what other things
were said and DONE
"The President, Don j ose Elias Herman
dez, made an eloquent address on the posi-
ton and duties of the Cubans in reference
to the noble task before them of electing
worthy representative to fill the last remain
ing seat in the chosen council designated by
the Cuban people throug gh their domestic
organizations The remarks of Senor Her
mandez were received with profound feel
ing, and then, after reading the proceedings
of the previous evening" the delegates pro-
ceeded to the election. Don Jose Elias
Hernandez was elected, after which, Don
Antonio Belancourt addressed the Junta in
a powerful and effective manner on the des-
tinies Of Cuba"
The Sun further says that "the Junta"
intend to organize and issue its Declaration
of Cuban Rights in the course of few days,
and 1--WE quote:)
'The Junta will henceforth take it's po-
sition without disguise as the accredited ex-
ecutive Of the will of republican Cuba, and
the eminent character, distinguished ability,
and well-tried patriotism of the illustrious
names that compose it will inspire as much
dread to the tyrants of Cuba, when they are
published there, as they indubitably will Of
hope and confidence to their struggling coun-
trymen.'

MYsTERIous-Aw writer from Parisburg,
Giles county, Va, says:
''At distance of some three miles from
this place, where some workmen were blast
ing rock, having made an excavation Of ten
or twelve feet, the earth gave way, and all
were plunged into a large room, apparently
dug out. At the further extremity of the
room human skeleton was found in a lean
ing posture, reclining as it seemed, against
the side of the cavern, and seated upon
something resembling chest. No clue, as
yet, is known to get at the history of the

OcRA HEMP.--A specimen of hemp made
from the stalk CT the well known ocra plant
has been sent to us. These stalks grow
from twelve to thirteen feet high, and will
yield four thousand pounds of this hemp to
the acre. There is a lot of it, one quarter
OF an acre in extent and nearly full grown,
on Poydras street, opposite Freret's Cotton
Press. 1t is said that this ocra hemp will
last longer in water than the common article.
