Gen. Barlow, L. s. Marshal at New York,
says that no regularly organized armed expc
dition has sailed from that port for Cuba, but
he believes that many men have left there,
'ostensibly as passengers, who will probably
assist the revolutionists, and much war materi-
al has also been shipped ''ostenslblY as
freight" A Washington dispatch says that as
surance has been given Spain that the l.. :.
will enforce the neutrality laws. Vessels at
several ports. suspected of being in Cuban in
terests, are closely watched BY our revenue
cutters.
The usual accounts OF engagements between
the Spaniards and Cubans have been received.
All are maeni6ed and arranged to suit both
parties. Charges Of atrocities assassinations,
and crimes arc made by the journals and by
private letters. Altogether the war news so
far received is unreliable, and the fighting, &C
cording to impartial correspondents, IS inslg-
ni6cant. Sugar animated, prices unchanged.
