CUBA.

We have received full accounts of the
attempted insurrection in Cuba. The
following is from a letter dated Havana,
Oct. 10th.
1t is officially announced that an en-
counter took place at Tunas between
the Spanish troops and a band of lnsur-
gents. The latter were defeated and
took to flight. Several of the insurgents
were taken prisoners. The party was
headed by Pedro Aguilera.
All the other districts Of the Island are
Tranquil.
The latest authentic news from Las
Tomas the successful progress
of the campaign against the insurgents.
They appeared in that district in three
or four separate bands all under the
head Of Aguilera. After the defeat Of
the largest body, they all dispersed and
are trying TO reach the sea shore with the
probable intention of finding ships by
which 10 escape from the country. The
troops are pursuing them in various di-

from st. Jago de Cuba, intelligence reach
ed us that, notwithstanding the reports
we have received here of the suppression
of the recent attempt at lnsurrectlon, the
island was in a very unsettled state, and
that the greatest possible alarm prevail
ell everywhere, especially at Havana.
The "Laliua" is consigned TO Messrs.
Davidson, Colthirst & Co, and has a
cargo of fish which, though in demand.
could not be sold on account of the con-
fusion and excitement that existed. The
telegraphic wires had been cut, and there
had been for me days, no communica-
ton between HavaAa and other parts OF
the island except by water. 1t appears
that it had become known hat the Cap
tain General had signified his determine
ton to uphold the authority of the now
fallen Queen and hat The "Creoles' had
in consequence taken up arms 10 resist
any attempt 10 keep them in such subjec-
ton. The British Consul at Santiago
gave a despatch to Captain Gabriel with
strict orders 10 call off Port Morant aud
send on a special messenger 10 deliver it
to the Commodore, but the Captain
thought ii best to come on to Port Royal
and deliver 1t person.
The French Transatlantic Steamer
"Tampico," in one day from Santiago de

them many ladies and gentlemen. who

deed, it has not already begun, in the
island of Cuba. A great many more,
it is reported, will come on here by the
first opportunity that is afforded. The
telegraphic wires having been cut and
all communication with Havana sus-
pended since the 29th ult., there is of
course no late European or American
news. We have received no newspapers,
and the meagre intelligence which we
have obtained was furnished by passen-
gers whose accounts of the existing state
of things certainly do not agree in all
particulars. The inhabitants Of Santiago
We're in such a state of alarm that they
were anxiously endeavouring to leave
the place /; but the authorities, in order
10 prevent a general panic, were useing
all means to prevent their departure.
The outbreak is solely on the part of the
%creoles for the expulsion of the Spapiards
and to bring about the independence Of
the island. There is no intention to
emancipate the negroes. and in this lies
the present danger-the negroes may
rise in vindication of their own freedom, in
which event, it is to be feared, The con-
Sequences would be awful, although The
result would be by 40 means uncertain.

B9~ There is but one opinion expressed
as to the demonstration last Saturday
night in honor of Seymour and Blair.
Even our political enemies are compelled
to admit it was complete success, and we
fancy must have wondered where their con-
stituents were, since nearly the whole pop
ulation had assembled in Lafayette Square
and all on the principal thoroughfares, to
give eclat to the occasion.
Troops Of ladies and children mingled in
the vast crowds of people, feeling perfectly
secure and being actually as safe from all
harm. surrounded as they were by the gen.
tlemen of the land, as though they had
been sitting in their parlors.
If there were any policemen upon the
streets we did not see them, nor were they
needed, for more orderly, sober or well
conducted assemblage never gathered to-
gether in any city.
The fears of an attempt to interfere with
the procession soon died away, and we do
not think they had any foundation in fact.
To have attempted to obstruct the way Of
such body of men, would have been as
hopeless an undertaking as tossing peb-
BILE in to TIE cataract Of Niagara with the
hope Of checking the rush Of water.-]N.

New Periodicals.

We are indebted to the Leonard
Scott Publishing company, New York,
for the North British Review and
Blackwood's Magazine for June. Both
of these numbers contain articles more
than usually interesting. The follow
ing is the table of contents in the North
British: l. A Liberal Education. This
is an able article on the reform needed
in our schools and colleges. 2. Mis-
trails Mireio, a review of an interesting
Provencal Poem. 3. Saint Louis. a.
Creeds and Churches. S. Memoirs of
Baron Bunsen. 6. The Greek Idyllic
Poets-an able article on the lives and
works of Bion, Moschus and Theocri-
tus. 2. On sleep, an exceedingly in
genious article. 8. The History of
writing, in which much curious and
valuable information is displayed on
the photographic art. Blackwood has
the following:
l. Grace Owens Engagement, 2.
The Latest Law-giver. 3. Unlucky

stitution and the Impeachment of the
President. 5. Letters from Staff Of

ish Gysy. No. 2. is a review of Mr..
Ruskin's new work, "Time and Tide
by Weare and Tyre" Mr.. Ruskin has
left art and clouds and seas and noun
tains and stones, and has attempted to
solve some of those social problems
which are disturbing thestatesmen ofthe
day. Like most cobblers who so beyond
their last, Mr.. Ruskin has made himself
ridiculous. He has afforded tho re-
viewer a most excellent subject on
which to use his scalpel, but our
amiable reviewer has such high opin-
of Mr.. Ruskin's genius and goodness,
that he skins him SO gently that Mr..
Ruskin doubtless finds it a luxury to
be skinned. 1t is to be hoped that Mr..
Ruskin will go back to his art, and
leave the social problem to Mr.. Bright
and the other Radical quacks who are
incapable of doing anything else but
physic the body polite. No. A. is very
able article condemnitory of the late
Radical outrage in America. The wri-
ter is thoroughly acquainted with all
the facts bearing on the impeachment
question, and but for the neatness and
correctness of the style we might take
him for an American.
