The News from Nassau.

Our correspondence from Nassau, published
to-day in another column, gives an interesting
account of the return of the steamer Salvador
and Of the landing of her expedition in Cuba.
The seizure Of the ste amer on her return was
made by the British officers on the ground OF
violation of the Passenger act, In having
taken out more passengers than the law
allows but it was supposed that the claim of
the Receiver General would fall through for
want of proof. 1t limited in our correspond
ent's letter that Captain Carlu Of the Salvador
will soon be in command of a Cuban man-of-
war and searching for the Spanish ships in
stead of being searched for by them.
The enthusiasm Of the Cubans on landing is
described as intense, and they expected soon
to give good account of themselves. It was
stated by the crew of the Salvador that the
department of the Spanish recruits and volun-
teers is not quite so valorous as the official
statements of the Havana press would make it
appear. Instead ofrushing to the charge after
firing the first few shots they quite as often
rush in the other direction. According to the
reports brought by the Salvador the new troops
are getting quite disheartened. We suspect
that the extravagant heroism of the Spaniards
is confined mostly to the Havana volunteers,
who find themselves always safe behind their
shop counters. From the account of the
voyage il is plain that the Salvador saw moth
ing of the Arsgo, and the whole story Of an
expedition having sailed from this port on the
Arago was an invention got up by so-called
newspaper in want of sensation.

THE WAR IN CUBA.-Our advices from
Havana, Of June 2, tend to realize the antici
patton ofa general dissolution Of society in the
island should the Spaniards persevere In their
attempt to retain il by force. Dulce has
given up the post Of Captain General, not
awaiting the arrival of his successor, General
de Rodas. General Espanao has been left in
locum tenens by the retiring ruler, who
had become quite disgusted with the con-
duct Of the volunteers. Confscations Of
property, the arming Of volunteers, city
riots, general alarm, another battle, with the
reported capture Of filibuster guns, go far to
show that the colony is not ''peace." When
will il be qaieted? Who has the reversionary
interest, or can the Cubans manage their own
affairs

A New DEMOCRATIC PoIIoY Is proposed in
Indiana. II is to welcome into full democratic
communion men who have heretofore acted
with the republican party, exacting no test
but that of agreement with the democracy on
the issues Of the day. This policy receives
the endorsement of representative democratic
papers in the West, the Cincinnati Enquirer,
the Waverly (Ohio) Waterman and others
being among the number. But what will it
all amount TO? The democrats may call upon
the republicans to join them. But will they
come? That's the question. II is something
like Glendower calling spirits from the vasty
deep. They failed to put in an appearance.
