~ We announce with pleasure TO our
readers that the Crescent City affair is at last
settled The Governor General of Cuba takes
Mr.. Purser Smiths recent affidavit as satisfac-
tory, and admits him and whatever vessel he
serves upon, to the port Of Havana, and to
quiet obscurity as before. This Is wise. But
it seriously interferes with the hopes of the
Fhbustiers, who desire that Gen. Canedo
should continue to prove himself big fool aud
kick up rImpus that only war could end.
If the rulers of the island do but maintain a
reasonable discretion in their future manage
ment, the emancipation of the vast body of
slaves that it contains, and its conversion into
a negro republic, or part of the Black En-
pre of the Tropics may long be delayed.
