IMPORTANT RUMoR The N. Y. Express OF
Saturday says:
Letters, we understand have been received by
the last mail from California, giving pretty GER
tain information that Fillibuster movement is
intended from California upon the Sandwich Is
lands. The government has already been put in
possession OF this information and will, no doubt,
exert Its authority to put stop to such move
ment,-with what success remains to be seen.-
The particulars of this expedition are not vet
pu3'ic,-but it is said to be on a large scale, and
to be managed so far, with some skill, as well as
secrecy. The California journals by the Illinois
are dumb on the subject, but the following which
meets our eye in the proceedings of the Sand
wieh Island Legislature, possibly may have some
thing to do with it:
"Mr. Sheldon offered a resolution expressing
the disapprobaton of the House upon the reports
IN circulation abroad, to the effect that the peope
OF this kingdom were DESTROYS of coming under
Tho American government, and calling for an in
quiIy as to the source from which such re ports
have emanated. Passed"
On the following day, however, we see mo-
ton to reconsi der prevailed, and the effect of
which was to have the Resolution postponed in
definitely. This is arather suspicious fact.

FROM JAMAICA.
Correspondence of the N Y. Express.
KINGSTON, JAMAICA,
May 26, 1852.
rather smart newspaper controversy has
been sustained here for some days past as to the
benefits or disadvantages which would acerue to
the colony, in the event of the free black and
colored people of the United States enigratinp
hither IN such numbers as would serve to produce
an apprecable effect on our own lahoring classes,
OF as should perhaps rather say, our own very
independent peasantry. Opinions seem to differ
very considerably on the subject, and all the old
arguments pro and cen have been resuscitated
from the grave into which they had been cast by
the apathy and Indifference OF the individuals who
would be most benefited in the obtainnent of a
large addition to the amount of available agricul-
tuial labor of the colony. Mr.. VIM Wemvss
Anderson, who was to certain extent delegated
by our House of Assembly to proceed to your
country, with the view to secure the cooperation
and aid OF persons favorable to the scheme, and to
induce the free black and colored Americans to
give the preference to Jamaica over IIiberia as
their future home-has been re-opening the oues-
ton of American emigration with much success
in Il verbal point of view. There is no doubt
whatever on the minds of persons who are com
petent to form opinions the subject that the re-
suit to both parties-to the people of the United
States and to the inhabitants of this island-wonld
be highly encouraging.
