~ The Washington correspondent Of
the Philadelphia North American says:
"The United States government has
positive assurances that Gen. Quitman has
nothing to do with any ilibustering expe-
dition against Cuba, and believes that no
expedition is on foot. Attempts were made
to direct the Kinney Central American ex-
petition against Cuba, but wholly failed.
The Spanish minister in Washington gives
assurance that Spain will pay indemnities
in the Black Warrior case, and others, for
injuries inflicted on American vessels. The
statement respecting the alleged rcsigna-
ton Of Mr.. Mason aud others OF our am
bassadors in Europe, is all fiction.

NArURALIzArIoN.-The past has been Q
busy year at the Naturalization Offices
and the ensuing promises to be more so
owing, it is generally believed, to the prev
alcnce of Know Nothing sentiments among
the American people. In the superior courr
of this city, naturalization papers were is
sued to 3l49 foreigners, and in the court
of common pleas, to $3.50, making tota'
of 6G04. During the same time, 5943 have
declared their intention of becoming citi
zcns, in the superior court alone--of whom
2079 were from Great Britain, and the bal
ance from other countries, but principally
from Germany.
We are informed that since the above
statement was made out, the number Of
applications for initatory papers exceed all
precedent, reaching in the superior court
as high as one hundred and fifty in a single
day. 1t is reported that the same is true
of the Kings county and Brooklyn City
courts.-N. Y. Courier.

The ARMY IN THE CRIMeA-The London
Times speaks in the most gloomy terms Of
the state Of the army in the Crimea. 1t
says that at the beginning of January it
could muster only $4,000 bayonets, the ar
tillery and engineers had been reduced in
the same proportion, and the cavalry no
longer existed as force. The deaths
amounted TO 60 day, and the number dis
abled by fatigue and sickness to 1000 Il
week. This ratio the Times thinks will
rapidly increase. 1t is computed that out
of $4,000 men nominaly fit for service,
only 1000 are in good health. The army
was an army Of invaids at the beginning
of the month, although the Crimean winter
had not set in. The Times comes TO the
conclusion that unless some extraordinary
stroke Of fortune intervenes, Eve are about
to lose our only army, the object Of Sc
much pride, of so much deep affection, oI
so much tender solctude," and asks, if the
nation is prepared for this disaster?
