Everywhere, il is evident Fillmore is gain.

this region occasionally hold ratification meet
ings, people would hardly know that Buch.

mocracy of Monroe and McMinn continue to

cinnati nominee is in the field.
The only Welsh newspaper in the United
Stntss, the Cambro Americana paper of

has come out for Fremont.
Verify, the "foreign allies" of the demo.
cracy are departing rapidly. The foreign
vote thrown for Mr. Pierce in 1862 was s67,.
500 l5O,647 more than that gent-man's
vote over Gen. Scott. Now il is demonstra.

low us TO suggest that he take down Mr..
Buchanan name until he gets through, ms
the association is calculated to call up remi.
niscences not at all pleasant to the democra.

tY- Advlces from Washington justify the
belief that there nru new political moves in
contemplation, and our readers need not be
surprised to learn in few weeks Of gen.
eraI and unanimous rally on Fillmore
throughout the South, That reckless man
who proposes, through the Nashville Union,
to bet 800 that Buchanan will get five more
electoral votes in the Union than Fillmore,
had better take down his sign, or his teu,erity
will lead him into the category Of those who
illustrate The old adage, "a fool and his mo-
pey are soon parted" Three weeks ago they
all swore that Fillmore wouldn't get single

Mr.. Buchanan's friends at Washington and
in the North have given up all hope Of car
rying the Empire State, and in fact claim
only Pennsylvania, where they think he will
be hard run. They concede all others will
go either for Fillmore or Fremont, and that
unless Buck can get every slaveholding State
he will be inevitably defeated. Now every
observing, candid man must admit that Mr.
Fillmore is certain Of Kentucky, Tennessee
Delaware, Maryland. North Carolina, Lou.

Georgia What chance, then, is there for
Buchanan Unqurstionably the race is be.

HAVANA, Nav IS. 1886.


The Spanards propose TO lombard Vera Cruz
unless their debt is recognised by the govrrn-
ment of Comfort, which was created in the DAYS
OF Canedo, Captain General Of Cuba, in order to
put Santa Anna on his feet again in Mexico
through the management Of Buenavpntura Vive,
afterwards Consul at HAVANA, and the present
Minister of Mexico near the Court of her Cath
olIc Majesty. | think that IN the course of this
week three or four additional vessels of war will
be dispatched from this port for Vera Cruz, and
that three or four thousand soldiers NAV go down
at the same time. 1t is intimated that at this
moment small force might be as effective upon
the City of Mexico-while the national resour-
ceS and actual sodiery are short-as was the
campaign of Gen. Scott, when the troops of the
nation counted near sixty thousand men, of
which thirty thousand were in and near the
City of Mexico. Although the debt is the os-
tens'ble object, the hope is that something NAV
occur TO favor Spanish designs upon the coun-
try, which have been long fostered, f0t impe-
rial purposes and the resumption of Spanish rule.
/ he matter has been fol some time under dis
cussIon, and think will shortly be acted upon,
unless the payment is promised.
General Morales Roda has most strangely dis
appeared from among us. He is one of our very
best officers, and clever every way. A person
looking very much like him went on board of
tue steamship Illinois last trip for Aspinwal,
and did not return TO the shore again. He did
not wear the same name in bis passport but
the mustache was very like, if not the veritable,
that encircles the upper lip of the gallant Ger
erai. He can easily charter schooner 10 90
where be may list from Aspnwall, and Costa
Rlca will have the advantage Of his councils.
We are getting good many old Spanish irons
IN the fire, and some of them may burn
We have had also three fresh cargoes of Afri-
cans landed in the last four weeks, with little
to much exposure for high toned official nerves,
and the Captain General has caused the arrest
OF several subordinate officers, who have been
duly snborned for the need of Cuban hands of
labor. The arrests We're made on the represen-
tatIons OF the British Consul General; bnt there
Will be no case made; the slaves are safe, and
