TIE KxcITKaKST IN CuBA.--The following remarks in
relation the present excitement in Cuba appear in the
New Orleans Pieayune Of the 18th instant:
As for Colonel Kinneys oonnexon with enterprise
against Cuba, his friends have consistently repudiaied
every thing Of the kind and have information that leads
US TO give eredence their statements Under these cir
eumsianoes and In view OF many minor facts that have
knowledge inclined to believe that The
Spanish in Cuba is very much deceived IN
that island is not deceived that II is pursuing
policy ofvey deep and subtle strategy in order to nfase
in the public mind in Cuba and in this country conyic-
ton of its deep penetration.
Our special correspondent has given much nforma-
Havana in regard there and we have
many private letters which we are not at liberty 10
We entertain the opinion however that the captain
general has made the arrests that have taken
place with desire TO inspire terror IN the minds OF
the people of Cuba than from any real crminaty on the
part of the persons seized Many of those IN prison
gentlemen Of the first position in society in Cuba both
regards intelligence and wealth and If il be true that
they conpring against the government all must ad
mil that the revolutionary sentiment in Cuba has Tar
deeper hold upon the people than the government there
would have supposed Men possessed Of great wealth.
and surrounded by all the Injuries Of life are never the
first TO entertain revolutionary designs
In view of all these facts believe that the Spanish
very much deceived regards movements
in this country or that the danger of revolution in Cuba
is far more imminent than il acknowledges. Doubtless
there is much exaggcation both sides and we advise
all await with caness for the adyices before they leap
to a conclusion
