LIGHT ON THE LOPEZ AFFATR.--Mr.
Sullivan, an EngIishman, the, author OF a
recent book oftravels in America, mem
iions the following as one of the causes
Of the failure Of the Lopez expedition:--
"When Lopex's invasion was first moot

sympathize, the Governor-G General gave
the whole Of the slave population within
len miles ofthe Havana, three days h0li-
day, that The whitesmigh. be able TO form
some idea oftlleir numbers, strength, and
feroci,y, and take wholesome warning
against sayoring any agitation which
might bring aboutthe horrors ofa slave
rising. his said that the sight Of these
fifty OF ,ix,y thousand African warriors
swaggering through the streets, and the
knowledge that the same struggle which
liberated them from the Spanish rule,
might also liberate the blacks from theirs,
did more 10 quench the rising feeling in
favor of"Li5er,ad" amongst the Creoles,
than any dread Of the soldiers Of old
Spain. II was iicklish proceeding on
The part Of the Governor. General, and
would have been scarcely warranted, but
for the presence Of twenty thousand men
under arms the whole time;snd the pos-
