CASE OF THE 1NSuRRECTIoNISTS--Er GBli1G-
on Of Dyson and M Sare Man .4ibet-James Dyson aud
the negro Albert slave oil DR. Ruston charged with
melting the slave population TO instruction took place
yesterday before Recorder Winter.
The State represented by the Attorney General
Morse, and by A. i. Field Esq John Il. Grymes, Esq
appeared Tor the slave Albert and Dyson defended hint
self in person
The testimony of the negro man Wright was substan-
italy the same as that heretofore published going to show
that Dyson had tempered with the witness inducing him
to believe that formidable organization
ton.
McGil the fisherman, testified substantially as detailed
in his preliminary affidavit also before published showing
that Dyson had provided arms and ammunition linn
tied extent in order to carry out his purposes
Several other witnesses examined whose testimony
tended to show that Dyson and the slave Albert
pcated in the dark plot charged to limited extent
Taking the testimony altogether, 1t goes to show that
Dyson medtated the insane attempt of which he is nc
csed though the limited provided establishes
ther that his hopes of success originated from
heated imagination than from calculation based the
knowledge of adequate means at hand
The testimony satisfied the Recorder of the guilt of the
parties and he committed them for trial before the First
District Court
1t probable that if the same testimony be elected be
fore a jury the accused will have to swing for it.

THE LMaGLMaRY LrsURREc1J0w

The insurrection, as it is called, which in the
Imagination of some our vigilant police and OF
many nervous old ladies desolated our city last
week, has gathered as it Travelled Northward,
until it has assumed quite portentous aspect
We have never known panic and excitement
to be wrought out of such slight material
There are persons who delight in such occasions
who sup on horrors and luxuriate in bloody
imaginings; who would die of ennui, if there
were not something dreadful to think, talk and
dream of. These are the persons who have
magni6ed certain unimportant incidents into
the horrible instruction, which frightened little
girls and elderly females in our suburbs last
week, and has excited so much apprehension and
anxiety among oar friends at the North The
whole affair originated in the rawlings of negro
who had the mania a potu, and in the suspicious
movements Of dangerous character who has

REGArrAs.--Our exchanges come to us with
great many accounts Of the Summer amuse-

boat clubs and regattas in still another Tbey

nearest approach thereto is in the shape of pacing

WASHINGTON, JuRe 10, ls53.-A rumor pre-
walls that adyices have been received by the
Government, from Havana showing that Santa
Anna is about to be seconded by Spain and Eng
land, in his hostility to the United States Al
vices representing that some intrigues of this
sort are on foot may have been received, but |
cannot believe them to be well founded The
rumors are probably Of iillibustier origin, and
are intended to produce an excitement against
Spain, and in favor oil another descent upon
Cuba
1t IS well known that the Fillibusters are nov
stronger than eyer--that they have money
arms, and men at their disposal 1t is proved
that they are watching this Government and
that this Government is watching them They
are watching only for the acquiescencc Of the
present administration in their movements But
this Government will not wink at their proceed
ngs, while Spain preserves good faith towards
US. Therefore, il is now the Fillibuster policy
to produce the belief that Spain is in hostile ALI
ance with Mexico against the United States
The moment this could be established, all the
ends Of the Fillibusters would be accomplished
for, from every part of the Union, ornaments
against Cuba would be Immediately fitted out
and in such strength as to be Irresistible.
All the rumors as to ntrigues Of Great Britain
in regard TO Cuba are undoubtedly false The
fishery question is to be settled very soons and
nothing can occur to produce any difficulty be-
tween die United States and John Bull

Management ofthe NewIork Worlds Fair, have

VERY LATE FROM BrENos AYREs. High3g
Important MteHigeHce-the Udr Reaeiced-
E,rteRSire preparations on boH sides epi0-
rabie state Of the country. The bark Leo
pold arrived Mt Boston on the l4th inst. with
dates from Buenos Ayres to the 24th of April.
The Boston papers inform us that letters by
this arrival state that all attemps to accommo-
date matters have been utterly foiled, and the
mosttormidable preparations have been made on
both sides-one to save and the other to cap
ture the city. The Buenos Ayres Government
have issued twelve millions additional money
have proclaimed martial law, closed the Gus
tom house and other offices, and have required
all able bodied men to bear arms in the army.
Urquiza, on the 18th, recommended to daily be-
siege the city, and on the 9th provisions had
become scarce and in demand. He also threatens
to blockade the port, but this the Buenos Ayre-
ans hope to prevent, by means, probably, Of
the intervention Of foreign powers. Doubloons
quoted at 3.31
Another letter says From the preparations
made, we are likely to have warmer work, and
much bloodshed.
The ship Margaret and Eliza, and bark
Thorndike were the only American vessels in
port.

TRANSFERS OF Public MONEY Jon, of the
Baltimore Sun, says; The Secretary of the
Treasury having tried the plan of carting about
the public money, and found it neither a safe
nor an economical mode of transfer, has re-
sorted to the proper construction of the twenty
first section Of the sub-treasury, and therein
found authority for selling the transfer drafts
to parties who are willing to buy them, and ac-
tually to pay for them By this mode the in
terests Of the Government are subserve1, while
the business transactions Of the country are
facilitated
When transfers are necessary, as they are
almost daily, the treasury drafts on the New
York sub-treasury are nov sold Thus the
Government wanted to place sum of money
the other day in St. Louis, and the Bank Of
Metropolis took the draft at par In some cases
brokers will give small premium for the pri-
yilege Of transfer from the East to West, OF

BALANCES Due LATE PoSTMAsTERs 1t appears
that there is considerable speculation being
driven at Washington, at this time, by parties
who have, by some means, got possession of the
official list of apparent balances due late post
masters, with the names and address of the in
dividuals to whom they may be due. VIM +,
Phillips, Esq, Auditor Of the Post-oiiice Depart
ment, makes some representations to the Post
master General on the subject, to the effect that
the information thus surreptitously obtained
is made use of to 81 defraud the parties entitled
to the balances Of more than half their dues, $
for merely nominal and unnecessary services,
lie says the number Of g agents and attorneys -
thus engaged has been increased by the recent
removals, and that the lists are hawkcd about
the streets for sale. The Postmaster General
has, consequently, in accordance with the Au-
ditor's suggestion, ordered the suspension Of
all payments Of balances due the Exp VI =
except such rs are called for within nine months
after they accrue, and Wy the party to whom
due In the meantime, the accounts will bt
examined as speedily as circumstances will per-
nit, and the sums found to be due will be mott
fed to the creditor parties, and paid over.
