The News.
The information transmitted by telegraph from
eur special Washington correspondent, with regard
to the recent reported outrages upon the American
nag by the CUBAN authorities, will be read with
qualification by all classes. We are assured that
President Fillmore has despatched a special agent
Havana, to inquire into the fscts with regard to
he treatment of the bark Cornelia and the steam
hip Crescent City, and if the unofficial accounts
hould be corroborated-a as most undoubtedly they
wll-the President will promptly demand ample sat
isfAc.ion, and if necessary will enforce the same
In the meantime, the Crescent City has once more
sailed from New Orleans for Havana, with the
Cuban mails, and Purser Smith on board. If they
again refuse to permit her to land at Havana, she
will quietly proceed on her voyage to this port
A very decided step towards the liberation of
Cuba has been taken by the native population resi-
dent in this and the other cities of the Union. A
most enthusiastic meeting of the Creoles, in New
York, was held last evening at No. 600 Broadway.
The large reom was wded to excess at o'clock,
and in . short time after there were nearly three
hundred persons present. The object was to elect
man from amongst the banished DO pulation Of the
isaand, in order to complete heunta which will
Jose E. Hernandez was called to the chair, and
Ssnor Manuel r Silva, with Senior Miguel M.
Aguira, acted secretaries to the meeting. Seniors
Talon, d. Armas, and great number Of gentlemen,
addressed the assembly; but the late hour-twelve
o'cloek-at which it adjourned, prevents us giving
areport of the proceedings to day. We shall publish
Il to morrow.
The most interesting feature in the sixteen days
infa Gall uad hxyt
graph from New Orleans, is the announce ment that
two millions of dollars in COLA dust is no probably
On its way hi'her. Several large Jumps of the pre-
eious metal have lately been discovered, and the
prospects of the mines generally reported ia
vsrable The miners were still exertiHg themselves
10 drive out the Chinese, with whom they are, if
anything, on far more unfriendly terms than they
are with the Indians We are sorry to learn from
the Sandwich Islands, that very serious epidemic
had materially affected business operations Homo
lulu. The king had promulgated treaty of re-
ciwocity with this government. The same despatch
brings US two weeks later news from Chile.
BY the arrival of the ste amship Franklin we have
received four days later sdvices from all parts Of
Europe full details Of which are aiven in another
page. Although there continued a plete stag
nation in political affairs, the general and CONNER
eial intelligence brought by this steamer will be
found quite interesting. The Partisan police have
discovered formidable conspiracy to destroy the
life of Louis Napoleon They captured a machine,
composed Of two hundred and fifty gun barrels,
each loaded to the muzzle with grape shot,
which the conspirators had intended to fire
upon the President the day following their
arrest. Had they succeeded in their designs, they
would have blown the Prince as well as those imme-
diately around him, to atoms The Illustration Of
these internal contrvances tends greatly to enhance
Louis in the estimation of the French and the more
ignorant and superstitious disposed to believe
that he wears charmed life, all of which materially
assists him in his approach to the empire The
Epglish journals still absorbed with affairs on
this continent. We quote at length an article from
the London Times, the gusno question, in
which the recent letter Of the American Minister,
Abbott Lawrence, is severely criticised the vessels
which have saedtrom different ports in this country,
for the purpose Of loading with the precious
nsnure, classed nothing better than pirates,
and Secretary Webster by whose advice they sailed
is characterized alder and abettor Of these
maritime freebooters What queer mess ofohow-
der Secretary Of State has made Of this affair
Silver seems to be getting very in England,
as well as every where else-the price of dollars
having risen three eigbths of penny in the Lon
don maIket-and, Notwithstanding that gold con-
tipued to come in freely from Australia, there was
somewhat of tigbtness in the market, and an in
sreasipg demand for money The Liverpool cotton
market was animated there had been rise of one
eighth of a penny, and at last accounts there was
IN upward tendency. The market for foreign grain
also had rather better appearance, although there
had been no actual rise in price

three last speeches of General Scott together with

The American schooner Ann has arrived at
