Despondency OF the Patriots MT tho Arrest Of

Eastern Department.
WASHINGTON, July H. 1859.
Letters have been received in this city from pr0mi-
nent officers In the Cuban army OF the republic via
Nassau and Key West. with dates to the LIST inst.
The intelligence Of the arrest OF the members Of the
Cuban Junta and others who desired to give practi-
cal aid to the Cubans struggling to achieve
their independence had been received, and produced
most profound impression OF surprise and regret.
No other news could have caused such feeling Of
dependency One Of the writers states:-"It came
like the news Of the death of your nearest and best
friend your only friend, and the feeling OF all
seemed to be that we were alone and must expect
assistance. However, all seeing that 1t Is now
Iiberty or DEATH for no mercy can be expected
from the Spaniards will fight as only men driven to
such desperation can fight"
IetOna who has succeeded Lesca IN command OF
the troops garrisoning Nuevitas and Puerto Principe
and guarding the railroad between these cities, is
reported to have met with serious loss in the de-
sertiOn OF some two hundred Of his troops to the
standard OF Quesada They report the dissatisfaction
among the Spanish troops to be increasing every
day, caused by the frequent changes lately OF the
commander of these posts and the generals and
regmenta commanders.
Frequent collisions were reported between the
outposts OF the two forces in the Eastern Depart
ment with but small loss on either side, though the
Cubans claim an advantage of position, and Of ear
nestness on the part of their troops.
The Spanish commanders continue TO execute all
prisoners Immediately on their capture; even those
who are wounded are executed on the field. Gene
Quesada has hitherto respected the rights Of pris
Oners. This policy is giving dissatisfaction In his
camp, and number OF his followers demand the
right TO retaliate.
