CUBA, published in some vi ile New York pa.
pers, assert that Santa Anna his a very close
si'lance with Span, under the protection of
England the condition OF her protection being
the substitution of the apprenticeship system for
slavery. IN Cuba In accordance with this ar
rangement. il Is SAID. a large body of Spanish
military officers have already entered The Mex
lcan service, aud Cuba is busy with active prep
afa'l"ns the Spanish feet beng drawn together
On the north side OF the island, lay ing in stores
and receiving troops.
II there is any Truth in these statesments of
'e''er'wltiDg agltators, whose employers have
a purpose 10 serve, there rs more than they say.

quite as sure 10 he mixed up in such an arrange

have business in eastern Europe. The repre-
sentations of these letters writer's are improba-
bic, and most Iikelv designed to give a look OF
decency and excuse to thu effurts of those who
would draw the country INTO II wanton war with
an antagonists so weak and despIcablea a Mex

A%FFLICTING CAsuALiTY.-A death under
most distressing circumstances, occurred IN
Fulrhaven last Saturday. As Mr.. Cullen Hawk
ms was at work alone IN his saw mill, it appears
that, either by accidentally falling. or by be-
ing struck by the saw-gate, he was thrown upon
the log just forward of the sa W. Before he was
discovered and he gate closed, the saw had
taken two or three clips into HIS breast, tearing
through into the cavity OF the body. There
was also II deep cut on the side OF the head
penetrating the brain. He hreathed about an
hour. but was entirely insensibie. The bitter
agony OF his wif. and children can better be
conceived than expressed. They, however,
have the Consolation ct .beieping that he @as
in redinpss for sm'h an event. lie was 80 years
of age. aud had for many years been a consis-
tent member OF the Congregational church in
that village. HIS funeral WIS attended on the
Sabbath by an immense concou rse Ihe | 0
