Ross took his departure accordingly In ter

(German) contained a notice the other day that
a number of wealthy Jews at Berlin Prussia,
were contributing money for the purpose of
compelling the emigration of destitute and de-
praved characters of the Jewish nationality from
Poland to the United States. The matter has
been brought to the attention of the Secretary
of State, and in the Banner and VoLksJreund Of
April the following letter is published in
reply

The nrexican nIission.

There is just as much doubt now as to whether
Sickles will be sent Minister to Mexico as
ever. The Herdtds correspondent writes as
follows:-
ut seems that after mature consideration
General Sicfles, after all, has declined the Mexi-
can mission. He objects to it for other reasons
than inadequate pay. Mexico, he says, may
have attractions for one of those prosy philosO-
pliers who delight in punting up the historical
records and chronological distinctions of the ex-
tinct Aztecs, but for live man like himself he
don't think it affords the right kind of field of
glory. Spain is the country where our Daniel
viii be sent. No other nation of the Old World
fills as large share Of the public eye at the pre-
sent moment. How its present vague and nebu-
lous political condition win finally crystalline
may form for the astute mind of the General as
fine a subject for norid thought and prediction
as any that could be presented His intellect
and influence could hardly find better theatre
for their exercise. lie embodies the force, vigor
and democratic thought of American breeding,
and can do much for the spread of republican
ideas among the awakening masses of Europe"

Reported tilibustering Expedition.
WASHINGTON, April 13.-It is ascertained that
the report of an expedition preparing to leave
the mouth of the Mississippi for Cuba to aid the
insurgents, is without foundation.
RearAdmiral Hoff has reported to the Navy
Department his arrival in the flagship off the
Southwest Pass of the Mississippi. Afterdiugent
inquiry he could obtain no information of the
supposed expedition, and came TO the conclu-
sion that it had no existence. He was about to
return to the station off Havana.
The Pressure for ONCE.
The pressure upon the various executive de-
partments is greater now than at any other time
since the administration came into power The
usually large army Of place-hunters is swelled
to a considerable extent by Senators and men,
bers, who having nothing else to do, have set
about to act rs attorney for their friends and
followers.
The Secretaries find it impossible to attend to
anyL business beyond neyer-ending interviews.
Ii would be much to the advantage and interest
of public business if Congressman would all go
home; while they remain here office-seekers will
also remain.
The Foreign Appointments.
The Committee on Foreign Relations has re-
solved to report only on the name of j. Lathrop
Motley, Minister to England. The other foreign
appointments were discussed but the committee
did not feel like making favorable report on
them until they ascertain who they are. 1t is
understood that many of them were on Wash
burne's slate
The Spanish Mission.
An effort was made to send in the name of
Daniel Il. Sicltles as Minister to Spain but Sum-
ner and others have prevailed upon the Presi-
dent to give that place to Sanford, the present
Minister at Brussels.
The Indians.
The President is contemplating the appoint
ment Of commission OF eleven persons, dis
tinguishedfor their intelligence aud philanthropy,
as provided by the Indian Appropriation bill, to
advise with the Secretary OF the Interior in the
management of the Indians. At least two of
them will be selected from Pennsylvania.
The Senate Adjournment.
1t is thought that the Senate will be able to
adjourn on, Saturday. This is hardly possible,
however, as the discussion on the Alabama
claims treaty will take very wide range, and
several Senators have prepared themselves to
take part in it,

fable increase in the deposits, of $637, 800; of

1t is very likely that the banks have lately
encroached upon their legal reserves In their
anxiety to accommodate their friends the
brokers, so that, for the present at least, our
mercantile classes will not feel the effect of the
change either in the expansion or rates of loans;
but as an index that the money pinch has
really attained the critical turning point, and
that a more easy money market may be expected
in the near future. We notice that a few hopeful
individuals are under the delusve impression
that the market has been in comparatively,
easier condition during the past few days. It
may be that the brokers are receiving more
ample accommodations, but TO business men

New YoRK, May 20.-A Havana letter
states that advices from the recent en-
gagement place the Spanish loss at 1900
and the Cuban at 1000.
Another letter, dated the 10Th, states
that the Republic of Cuba was formally
established by Congress held at Geur-
mano, Q small town of the central de.
partment Of the island, about twenty
leagues east of Puerto Principe. Ces.
pedes was elected President of the Re.
public, Gen. Quesads Commander-in.
Chief Of the forces, and Don Francisco
V. Acquitara appointed Secretary OF
State and War.
Cespides issued stirring proclama-
nation on assuming the Presidency.
He says: In the act of beginning the
struggle with the oppressor Cuba has
assumed the solemn duty to consummste
their independence, or perish in the at
tempt; and giving herself Democratic
Government, she obligates herself to be.
come republican. This double obliga-
ton, contracted in the presence of free
America, before the liberal world, and,
what is mere, before our own conscience,
signifies our determination to be heroic
and victorious. Cubans, on your heroism
/ rely for the contamination of our indie
pendence, and on your virtue ! count to
consolidate the Republic.
Quesada closes his proclamation to the
Cuban army thus; We have to combat
with the assassins of the old women and
of children with the mutilators of the
dead; with the idolators Of gold. Gu
bans, ifyou would save your honor and
that of your families; if you would con-
quer forever your liberty, be soldiers.
