~ CUBA is In bad way. A writer
just from Havana-for the N. Y. Tribune
says that the Captain General is still
pushing forward on his favorte scheme
of enlisting black troops. He remarks ::
Every vagabond negro who presents
himself is enlisted, and from that moment
he is an important parsonage, as he has
privileges which are not conceded 10 any
priva.e individual. He is allowed to wear
his side arms, and 10 insult both women
and men with impunity. No private cit.
izen can defend himself, as he must take
care how he lays his hand upon any one
who wears the insignia of Her Majesty.
No measure which has hitherto been
adopted by the Government has caused so
much dissatisfaction among the whole
population, both European and Creole, as
this; and it is one which, if persisted in,
will completely destroy the connecting
link between this and the mother country
Any one who is acquainted in Havana,
and has been there within six months,
cannot out observe the change of opinion
and feeling among the old Spania7ds. 1t
is doubtful whether the Island was ever
worse governed than at this moment: at
any rate, never since the time of O'Don>
mel. Ii has never had man at its head
who has been capable of lnhiclng such
and so many tortures upon the inhabitants
or who has filled mis- pockets more rapid

the slave traffic, as the present Captain
General. Between three and four thous

THE COLLINS STEAMERS.

One Of the results Of the Crimean war has
been the withdrawal Of the English Cunard
steamships from their regular business between
Liverpool and NewY ork, and the consequent
transfer Of all their trade to the American
line, known as the Collins. 1t was the original
plan Of this latter company to build 1--WE steam
ships the Atlantic, Pacific, Baltic, Arctic and
Antarctic The four FIRST only were completed,
and one Of them has been recently lost. The
whole business has therefore deyolyed upon
three vessels, unless the lost one is Immediately
replaced, and the unfinished one completed,
How long tirne would be necessary to ill up
the list to what it should be, in order to answer
the wants Of travel and traffic between the two
ports, We are unable to say but, Judging from
what has been done, three months would be
sufficient to ensure q regular weekly commune
cation BY means Of as fine steamships as float,
between New ork and Liverpool.
There are very few public enterprises that
have contributed 30 much to the nations repu-
tation as the Collins line Of steamers. They
were the growth Of moment, and not the re-
suit Of many years Of experiment, They en-
tered into an instant rivalry with the best boats
Of English construction and beat them. They
gave new honors to our flag, and won rank
that all the efforts Of British machinists and
ship-huilders could not take from us Up the
present time they have won nothing beyond
glory, which, however fattering, can not be
deemed pecuniarily profitable There is al
present an opportunity for giving to our own citi
zens q monopoly Of Atlantic steam navigation,
which, we hope, will be seized upon and secured.
During the existence Of the present war-that
does not promise to be short--the Collins line
must do all the steam work Of the Atlantic.
In order to render it equal to the emergency,
new vessels must DO built. If they are built
and sent into the trade Instantly, there is good
reason to suppose that the Cunard line will be
discontinued or sent into some other service.
The business between this country and Eng
land ought to be done in American bottoms. 1t
10 not 50 much the welfare as the honor of the
country that demands it.
Travellers from the South have always pre-
ferred those vessels that bore the stars and
stripes, and we hope that advantage will be
taken Of our present opportunity to render our-
selves master Of the Atlantic as much with
steam as ne already are with sails
