General Quitman's Contemplated Descent
ho

Upon Cuba.
From the Courier DIES Etats Unis, Feb. 18th.
A telegrophic dispatch, unexpected by
the majority Of the public, and dated from
New Orleans on the 9th of February, an
nounces the departure three da-s ago for
the coast of Cuba, fresh expedition num-
bering $500 men.
The laconic style of tins announcement,
and the strict silence preserved since then
by the telegraph on subject so important
have caused the news TO pass almost unpre.
ceived by some, and 80 be subjected 10 doubt
by others. Without pretending 10 guaran-
tee the eXactness of the fact, we must say,
for our part, that we expect rather a confir-
nation than a contradiction of it. We have
been prepared for it by all the communica-
tons that have been arriving from the South
for months past, touching the preparations
making there 10 carry out the project. Even
the epoch at which the departure is TO take
place has been announced long beforehand.
The evidently calculated precautions that
have been taken for the last few weeks to
stihc all public run ors on This subject, and
TO divert attention by an affected abandon
ment Of the enterprse--the recent SEIZURE
tho armament loo soon divulged Of the
United States-all concur in corroborating
the veracity of the telegraph.
The news that we receive from the island
of Cuba itself arrives in aid ofthese presump-
tlons. There prevailed there, in fact, a
vague apprehension Of an approaching dis
cmbarkation of filbusters. Certain rumors
even went farther, and sgnolizcd the pres.
ence already on the coast of an expedition
commanded by General Quitman. Fresh
seizures Of arms had taken place among in.
: dividuals suspected of revolutionary rela.
tons. In fine, five Spanish ships of wal
$ had left the port Of Havana with the object
it is said, of cruising in search ofthe expec
7 ted invaders.
For the little that may be true in all thi!

capped cur attention until we were about 60

Railroads, Banks, and kindred subjects, will

most exciting times that has been witnessed
