The News Of tho Revolution in the Island
Santa Anna and the Cuban Authorities.
HAVANA, Oct 10. $685.
The rumors as to the future destiny OF this island
In view Of the troubles in Spain are as thick 'as
leaves in Yallambrosa," and 1t is q matter Of far
more than corresponding diflculty to trace any Of
them to any reliable source. This morning, In ac-
cordance with an announcement published in tho
of1cial Gazette OF yesterday, the Captain General
held levee the occasion being the saints day o.
her Most Catholic Majesty Isabella Segunda,
'.whom may God preserve as read the document
The present head Of the island IL supporter OF tho
Queen, and 1t Is well understood that he will rec0gI
nze her authority to the latest moment, though up
to this time he has received no official communica.
ton which would lead him to do otherwise. 9S;
A telegram was received here from Spain by .
leading commercial house the sth. This stated
that federal union had been settled upon, that
Dulce was to be sent as Captain General to Havana
that Cuba to be opened to free navigation, the
liberty OF conscience and OF the press to be recog,
nized and the army disbanded.
The Spanish authorities boarded the steamship
Cuba, from New Orleans for Baltimore, on the I'd,
and seized all American newspapers, that the news
OF the progress Of the revolution in Spain might not
be known to the people In Cuba.
The Captain General, Lersundi. has the inside
track at present with the Spanish fleet In Havana.
He allows the fleet but one days ratons at time.
of the elmer man,
The ancient Mexican chief Santa Anna has been
ordered to leave the island, as you have heard by
telegraph. He Is given thirty days to arrange his
AFFAIRS He Is entirely without means and Ia obliged
to call upon his friends for money pay his passage
TO some other point Tatsoada and others Of his
stan were ordered to leave within three days.
This action OF the Captain General undoubtedly
grows OF the recent discoveries OF attempt as
revolution In Mexico made through the capture Of
Padilla, among whose papers was found q letter
from Santa Anna stating that Lersundi had offered
him 5000 men with whom to invade Mexico, a.
has been already published In the HERALD. It Ia
known here that Padilla was spy OF the Juarez
government, and his success In Woodworking the old
intr1guers which surround Santa Anna was very
remarkable.
The merchants here make great complaint on &C.
from New York ut present in a variety OF ways and
In such manner that no reliance can be placed on
them. An example OF this occurred but recently.
The MORO Castle, which arrived here on Wednesday
last brought but few letters and none OF those from
Europe which had arrived in New York by the Cuba
on Tuesday. Naturally much ast0nshmcnt and an
noyance were felt. IL was supposed they had been
forwarded by the Alabama which left New York on
the same day. II seems, however, that the mails
had been sent to Baltimore, TO be forwarded by tho
steamship Maryland, which, on account or bad
weather. reached here behind her time. While II Is
evident that the mails are made up and forwarded
with oil possible despatch IL would be far better that
they should always be forwarded by one limo aud at
stated periods, as IN that case commercial men and
others Interested would Know what to depend ON
and make their arrangements accordingly.
