for that place, and yesterday the Guantanamo arrived
from there bringing i've or SIX boxes OF ammuni-
ton and four sick soldiers The expedItionists had
left the estate Ramon, on the peninsula between
the Bay OF Nipe and Banes, where they were en-
encamped, and gone safely inland with
the mass OF their stores and munitions, though
compelled to abandon a considerable quantity OF
both. probably from want Of transportation. The
finding Of these abandoned materials was quite
sufficient to start the usual spanish canards and the
loyal public Of this city in the evening were
startled and delighted at the issue OF a flaming
bulletin, which announced that the brave Colonel

The truth is that the insurgents aud their foreign
friends left their camp for much the same reason
that tat the New York burglar left the house he had

The Spanish Clement is decidedly cast down by
the Mayari occurrences and consider the country ~
danger. The numerous class which sympathlze
with neither party, and only regard the matter as IL
Affects their own interest, hardly know what 70
think Of the future; but the idea OF annexation meets
from them, and, indeed, IRON many Others, but little
favor. The principal thing which stands IN the way
Is protection, and as that relic OF the barbarous
ages nourishes In the United States free trade,
which Is the great thing hoped for would be as far
OF ever, and again the exclusion OF foreign tags
from the carrying trade, which would result from
the annexation, would prove amatter OF serious ini-
portance to much Of the property interest In the
island.
As am about closing this despatch learn that
the insurgents certainly left four guns behind them
at Banes, which were taken by the troops. Govern.

provisions and ammunition was captured; but there
Is scarcely a shadow Of truth In the statement
