By the arrival of the steamship Black Warrior We
have advices from Havana to the 18th instant, but
the news is not important. The general trade Of
the port was dull. The demands Of the holders of
sugar had advanced SO much that the sales were
very few. One hundred and twenty Eve thousand
boxes remained on hand. Exchange on New York
was at three to four per cent premium. An absn-
doned slave ship had been taken off Colorado reef by
the authorities. She had, it was thought, landed
nine hundred negroes, under command of Eugenio
Vinss, daring and experienced trader.
The Captain General had suspended two of the
Judges of the Supreme Court, charges of cOrrup-
ton, from office and sent them to Porto Rico, there
to await the pleasure of the Queen. seditiOus cir
eular was being distributed amongst thefree cOoTsd
population and Asistic laborers, urging combina>
ton with view to revolt. The case Of the brig
Nancy was not finally determined by official sigma
turs in her favor bnt she in reality free Consul
Savage, Of the United States, had given much dis
satisfaction many parties by informing the Spanish
government of the slavery intentions of the brig c.
Perkins, instead Of sending her to the United States;
for If the vessel be condemned now, Mr. Savage will
be entitled to peeuniary reward. More war ships
and troops we're expected from Spain. At Santiago
de Cuba most leading articles of trade were wanted
in the market. Laborers were very scarce there.

ans. have been handed down without nutilation or
change through successive generations OfautiSDsm-
oorato orators and editors aud are repeated to-day
with the same energy and eagerness, in the FIRST
hour of their creation. We have been astonisbsd
to find that there is 50 little fertility Of invention
among cur opponents Of the present day. We
know that their hostility to Democracy is as bitter
as it was in the days of the Hartford Convention.
We know that they are not restrained by any more
conscientious regard for truth than we're their pre-
decessors who reviled the sages of Monticello and
Montpelier Are their imaginatiOns SO barren and
unproduetive that they aninvent fresh ISLANDERS
against The Democratic party We expect them TO
wage perpetual warfare against us We do not
look for any cessation of hostiies But they might
display more ingenuity by forging new weapons
with which to assail us rather than thesame old
blunted blades which they find in the armOry Of
their federal ancestors. We advise our contempt
raries Of the opposition press if they i continue
to urge these stale and worn out charges to repub-
lisb the editorials Of the Hartford Times and other
opposition journals and thereby save themselves the
labor Of writing them over. We assure our con-
temporsres that they have not improved upon their
prototypes, either in the bitterness or the eOquence

company to Broadway, and Mrs. Rouf entered store

posing that some eatc notion had taken possession of
her, and that she had gone home, the lady proceeded
