From Havrnn via New York.

HAVANA, Nov. 3.-The steamer Pizzaro ar
rived here on Sunday, having left St. Do
mingo city Oct. %. She landed several
wounded and sick at Santiago de Cuba on the
2Sth, but brought twenty-five prisoners, who
have been sent to the Moro; among them
several old Spaniards. All were brought in
the most wretched state, shoeess and halt
starved; still there seems to be no likelihood
Of the rebellion being put down. The cor
respondent of the De Ario writes that the
situation is grave. More troops are being
sent from the island. The mail steamer Isla
DE Cuba was chartered yesterday and left
with 800 soldiers; and II merchant steamer
has been sent with mules and provisions.
The nephew OF our captain general, and his
only male relative, has been killed, and Gen.
Gandaro is reported wounded. The rebels
have always been so fortunate in cutting off
the chiefs or leaders of their enemies as to
render their reports generally believed Gen.
Santana is reported to have had battle
which lasted an hour and half, AID the
suit Of which was a cannon and several prs-
onerS captured from the rebels. There seems
to be some doubt and mystery in regard to
Santana, Some say that lie was killed on
the 9th.
Gen. Forey arrived here in the steamer
Panama, and was received with grand Hour

found true bills of indictment against the par
ties charged with conspiracy. The case came
up in the United States court yesterday, but

conspiring to capture the u S. steamer Mich

A MOTIVE TO ENLIsT.-Judging from the
present aspect of southern affairs, it is proba-
bic that after one or two battles more, if sue
cessful, on our part, the most of the fighting
will be over. The principal duty of the army,
then, will be to put down guerrillas, and pre-
vent any outbreaks arising from the discon-
tent of the south under what will then be the
new order of things. 1t follows that those
who enlist now will have comparatively
easy time. Many of them will see no fighting
and others very little. So far as danger is
concerned, it is vastly different thing to en-
list now from what it was when the war COM
menced W

MARYLAND.-The election of John Cress-
well, emancipationist, to congress from the
first Maryland district, is one of the most
gratifying of the many satisfactory results of
the election. Mr. Crsfeld, his opponent, was
a member of the last congress, a man of fee
bic loyalty, whose conduct recommended him
to the favor of the pro-slavery and di:loyal
factionists of his district. The election was
sharply contested, and the candidate of the
unconditional emancipationists comes out Of
it with over one thousand majority. 1t was
in this district Montgomery Blair attempted
to use his prestige as a member Of the cabinet
against the emancipationists. But the accident
of his belonging to the cabinet will not abate
the satisfaction all honest men will feel over
his signal and richly-merited failure. In the
second, third, and fourth districts, Edwin H.
Webster, Henry Winter Davis, and Francis
Thomas, are elected almost without opposi-

BALTIMORE, Nov, S.-The whole of the state

Montgomery counties. Goldsborough's ma

sNEws FROM PHILADELpHIA,' always doubt
ful, and usually eontradicted next day, has
again illustrated the romancing propensities
of the ncwsmongers of that city. On Satur-
day evening, several dispatches came from
Philadelphia announcing that fort Sumter had
surrendered and was occupied by the l44th
PENNSYLVANIA regiment. This news had been
officially announced at Hilton Head, it was
stated, and steamer had brought it to Phila-
delphia reporters. This was very good news,
and those who sent it, added some stirring
words of jubilaton. But their report had
not syllable OF truth in il. 1t was an inven-
ton, a canard, sensation lie; and we have
had, at various times. a good many Others
like it, from the same source. We advise our
readers to examine carefully all the news re-
ports they read in the newspapers; and, when
they find one that originated in Philadelphia,
let them treat 1t as an INSCRIPTIONS false
hood, until it gets confirmation from some
other source.
We have dispatches this morning, that show
how unwarranted and false was the story tel
graphed from Philadelphia. Fort Sumter is
now a mass of ruins, in which small rebel
force still burrows; but it will soon be desert
ed for Gen. Gilmore has resolved to make
its ruins uninhabitable. The rebels have not
left it, but they will soon be compelled to leave
it. 1t is, however, nowise likely that regi-
ment, or any number of our troops, will be
sent to occupy it, at present. Gen Gilmore
does not intend to use Sumter for offensive
purposes. 1t is Cor has been) an obstruction
10 be removed; and its ruins will not be gar
risoned by federal troops, we presume, until
Charleston is captured, and the work is re-
paired and put in condition to aid IN defending
the harbor
1t is difficult to understand why Philadel-
phia should be constant source of false
''news." Nobody will, hereafter, believe any
report of war news from that city. In fact, it
is now long time since any such report from
that quarter could engage belief, so constant.
