From Havana

A Telegraphic despach dated at New Or
cans on the 3lst uIlimo mentions the arrival at
Mobile Of the steamship Black Warrior, in
forty nine hours from Havana, and says
The war steamer PoWhataa, from New
York, having on board Judge CoNKLrN, the
newly -appontcd Minister to Mexico, had ar,
rived at Havana.
Judge CoNKrLN, soon after his arrival had
an interview with the Captain General in rela-
ton 10 the recent troubles concerning the stea.
mer Crescent Guy, when the difficulties were
so arranged that the Crescent City will hereaf-
ter be allowed to land her mails and passen-
gers, but Mr. Smith, the Purser will not be
permitted to 90 ashore.
Tho Captain General, it ia also stated, had
acknowledged to Commodore NEwToN, Of the
Powhotan, that he had acted too hastily, and
was willing to make suitable apology to the
American Government but in no case would
he allow Mr., Smith to land on the Island.

beaten so badly that il Is idle 10 attempt TO as
sign any one cause for it. 1t seems probable
that.in addition TO the democratic party proper
every dolesiable and lawless faction. the fol-
lowers of all the new and false lights, and the
advocates ofevery dangerous and destructive
ism have concentrated upon the nominee ofthe
democratic convention Whether there is
more of glory in triumphing with such auxia-
ries, or failing IN an honest endeavor to preserve
the constitutional rights aud liberties Of the
country we will be better enabled tn Judge
when the fruits Of the victory shall be more
fully developed. The leaders OF the party will
show themselves possessed Of more general
ship than they have ever yet exhibited, If they
manage TO hold together The discordant bands

IN bosieged town, Domerz began TO feel the
Pangs OF a morbid appetite, and he crossed o.
yer to the enemy for the sake of food His
craving for food soon became wofsh; cooked
meat ofany kind his stomach rejected, Lut
raw meat OF all kinds he omitted no opportuni

had seized and picked the bones, after no other
preparation than rapid sl;inning, OF one hun
