The movement recently protested for The liberia
ion Of Cuba seems to get along with considerable
Iorce and momentum in this latitude. According
10 HE latest intelligence from Havana, the revOlu-
lionsts Of that city have not been so fortunate
their associates Of the clone STAR order in this ooun-
try We learn that hundred persons have been ar
rested by the present Governor Of Cuba, and there
is rumor that some ofthem have been shot. 1t is
also said that among those arrested is Of those
aged in the publication Of the new Revolutionary
newspaper, "The Voice Of the Cuban People,
another Of them having escaped in trading vessel
to Boston. In this latitude the movement has as
sumed strong footing in Wall street, and procured
for its organ Of the leading commercial journals
Of that region-the Courier and Enquirer. The
conspiratOrs boast Of o complete organization
South and North, numbering fifteen thou
sand men, comprising many of The first ranks
Of society-iunds to any amount, and plans
and projects which they are determined to
carry out as soon as an opportunity occurs.
Their new fihbuster organ, cur cotemporary in
Wall street, goes into the business with more gravity
and skill than the old organ in Fulton street.-the
New York Sun. From the appearances Of the new
movement, the gravity with which documents con-
neeted with the scheme are published, and the par
ticuarity with which they lay down their plans and
intended operations, and from the confidence dis
played by the Courier and Enquirer in the success of
the movement, it isvery likely that loan has been
raised in Wall street to considerable amount. on
the pledge Of the revenues of the island Of Cuba
to be paid soon as it has attained its indepen-
aence. 1t is very certain, judging from past events
that our respected contemporary would not encour-
nvrxkrn al, -
least funds could be raised to the amount Of
$52,725 37a exactly. Wall street loan, on the
faith of Cuba revolution for 1858, is nearly good
as many Of the recent loans raised on railroad
bonds on Western towns and villages.
Seriously, however, we should like to kn,w-if
the wisdom Of Wall street furnish the informa.
tion-whether this is grave hoax, from beginning
to end, palmed on the public for some home pur-
pose, whether it is really and truly develope-
ment of the plans and projects of the new revolu-
tionary conspiracy that has been formed by the
Creoles and the "Lone STAR association, to
be carried into effect as soon as possible?
The matter has assumed formaity and gravity too
serious for hoaX-too ticklsh for piece of SLEEVE
gammonism. fit be true stated in the new 6lli-
buster organ in Wall street.-the Courier and Enquirer
that the new conspiracy numbers fifteen thousand
men of the first ranks of society in this country,
with plenty of money at command, there can be no
doubt but that Cuba can be wrested from the hands
Of Spain in less than six months and in defiance of
all the opposition that can be made by the mari
time powers Of Europe.
The present Governor of Cuba is we'll known to
be utterly inefficient for protecting that island
against any attack from this country. Governor
Cahedo is merely "a higher order of policeman
stern, unreenting, working in secret; and his only
anxiety in leaving Spain for Cuba was to make q
fortune out of his perquisites arising from the vgor
GUS prosecution Of the slave trade Before he left
Spain for his new government he spent many
hours in consultation with old Gov. Tacon, who i'm
pressed his mind with the necessity Of managing the
affairs Of Cuba by the stern despotic system which
Tacon himself first introduced on that island.
Against Creoles and Creole conspirators Governor
Cahedo is perfectly competent to act, and is able
to crush and quell all attempts at revolution in
that quarter alone; but with his twenty thousand
more troops under his command, he is totally in
capable Of welding any power, or directing any
movement, in comparison with his predecessor, the
gallant and liberal minded General Concha. The
fifteen thousand fllibusters who are now enrolled
throughout this country, as develornd in the ~
4~oo-a.---. lv.amenUs given to the world in the
columns of the Courier and Enquirer, are more
than sufficient to overcome Cahedo and oil the
forces he can bring against them, if the connic
should ever be tested The barbarity, violence
and despotism of the present Governor will only
keep in state Of excitement the public mind
Of this country, and act against the continu.
ance Of the connection between Cuba and Spain,
through the whole of the free press of Eu-
rope. The suppression of the press in Cuba
amounts to nothing, in reference to the agi.a-
ton Of the question, so long as three thousand
journals on this continent are free to discuss, to
talk, to develope affairs, and to place the whole
question: in all its notifications before the public
mind Of America, and Of Europe, even Spain in
cluded.
1.-THE grave and startling developements published in
the Courier and Enquirer as real facts, be not hoax,
and piece Of Slievegammonism, then there certain
y every prospect ola last and final attempt near at
hand for the liberation Of Cuba, and its cmancipa-
ton from the terrible military dospotism to which
that island has been hitherto subjected by Spain
Many months ago, at the termination Of the last at
tempt of Lopez, we stated that the most favorable
opport unity for successful revolutionary operations
in Cuba, and for the departure Of liberating army
from the American shores, would be at that parti-
cular crisis in history which would inter-
vene between the going ont Of old President and
the coming in Of new. At such an interval
Of time, either about the period Of election, next
November, or during the months Of March or April
next year, when the President il indicted into
office. the attempt should be made. The vigil
lance, the skin, the activity, and the power
of our republican government, always in
the state of comparative allegiance during that
periodical transition. There could be no moro
favorable opportunity for expedition Of
ten thousand departing from any Part of this
country for the purpose Of landing in Cuba without
being at oil afraid Of any particular effort Of the
government at Washington to prevent it. The
