On Thursday last the Spanish Con.

Claverack Institute. Mr.. Carnobeli
handed me letter from my father,
desiring me to come to Cuba. read
the letter, and then told him did not
wish to 90 home. The Spanish Con.

and if | did not go Immediately,

them that would give them no an.

said that | could not see nv uncle.
and told them that | would not 60
to Cuba without first having an inter.
view with him. The Spanish Consul
then said if | would come to New

see my uncle. then agreed to come
to New York, and arrived here about
ten O'Clock on the same night. When
got there they refused, or my ask.

HAvANA.-The Savannah Journal and
Courier of Saturday says:
"By the arrival this morning of the
schooner Abbot Devereux, Capt. AL.
chorn, from Havana, we have advices
from that port up to Sunday last,
February 4,h.
I've learn that at the time of the
sailing of the schooner, and for sew.
eral days previously. great excitement
existed in Cuba in anticipation of the
landing of General Quitman, who was
reported and believed to be off the
island, with force oftwcnty thousand
men. The Creoles were highly eated,
but it was not supposed that they
could render much assistance to their
deliverers. Indeed Capt. Alchorn thinks
the present Captain General, Concha
has made himself and administration
popular with all classes, so that it ma,
be presumed that the discomfort on
the island is not SO wide spread now
as formerly.
"Ihe Spanish fleet, consisting Of
Two war steamers and three sailing
vessels, frigate, sloop of war, and
brig, left the port Of Havana last Sat.
urday on cruise in search of the

line entered the harbor Sunday morn

expected for the defence of the island.
"We have no means Of knowing
upon what grounds the fears of the
Spanish olticiais were based. But one
