NEw YoRK, Jan. lO.-By the steamer
Liberty we have Havana dates of the 4th.
But little news from any quarter had been
received at Havana.
Accounts from San Domingo, though
containing nothing particularly new, rep
resent the Spaniards as making very poor
progress, and the general opinion is that
Spain ought to abandon the attempted
conquest of the island. The same may be
said of the French attempt in Mexico.
Both Spain in San Domingo and France in
Mexico are less near the end of their pro.
jected conquest than year ago.
The glorious news from the United
States received in Havana lately continued
to make converts. to the Union cause.

that very favorable indications of petroleum

Adams Express Messenger, who was in
jured in the collision which occurred on
the Baltimore and Ohio railroad last San.
day morning, is recovering very rapidly
and 10 doubt is now ascertained that he
will get we'll. His experience after the
accident was horrible. at the time o: the
collision he was lying asleep in his car,
and when the two engines came together
was caught in the wreck and could not
move. at the same time the car caught
FIRE and the flames gradually approached
the clothing and hair of the helpless mes
senger. His appeals for assistance were
finally heard by soldier, who upon COM
ming forward to the spot whence the cries
seemed to issue, found Mr.. Robinson lying
in great agony with his hair and clothing
on FIRE. The soldier threw a blanket over
MIR. RS head to extinguish the flames and
then with an almost superhumau effort
dragged him from the burning mass, more
dead than alive.

Heshy part of one of his legs, inAiotiug a
deep cash about six inches long. The
wound bled very profusely, and it was
feared at one time that the man would

properly cared for, and it Is now thought
that by proper attention he may not be
