Additional Regarding the Cuban Revolt.

PHILADELPHIA, April 1.-THE Ledgers
correspondent in New York, speaking OF the
Cuban revolutionary report, gives few facts
in regard thereto which, he says, are worthy
Of credence.
On the 2Sth of March, the bar que Glla
sailed from New York for Havana. She was
cleared by Mora & Brothers. There is every
reason to believe that she had 100 fllibusters
on board, with full supply of arms and
ammunition.
On the next day the brig Mazatlan clear
cd for Tamandina, Fla. 1t was suspected
that she, also had fillbusters on board.
The principal partner of Mora & Bros,
is reported To be General Goicouria, who Is
reported to have sailed on the steamer Ca
hawba.
The Spanish Minister is in New York,
and is sorcly disturbed in relation to the mat
ter.
