reports and particulars Of another fllibuster
expedition. It says several Cuban fllibus-
tiers have suddenly disappeared from New
York. There is great excitement among
merchants there, who do business with Ha-
vana, and it is evident they believe there

dispatches to the Captain General of Cuba,
apprising him of the sailing of the expedi-
ton, and on Wednesday they. sent further
dispatches to the same effect by the Cahaw-
ba. Indeed, SO important does the Spanish
