TIE FIGHTING IN CUBA.-A special dispatch
from Havana was received by the Spanish pa.
per in New York yesterday; stating that Ces-
pedes and Quesada, with 6,OOO Insurgents, ad
been defeated in an attack en- Las Tunas with
q loss OF 500 men. Letters from Cuba, received
IN this city yesterday, also mention an en-
gager en- between Quesada and the forces of
Nalmesada, which had moved out from Las
Tunas. The Spsniards, 400 strong, under
Nalmesada, are represented as being the at
lacking party, and il is stated that they were
defeated with severe loss, but the insurgents
could not follow up the advantage for lack of
artillery.
Information was received here yesterday of
the seizure OF an expedition for Cuba, which
attempted TO get away from Macon, Ga. 1t
appears that the force was Insignificant, con-
sisting Of only one small vessel, with probably
not more than nifty or sixty men on board.
The craft struck on a sandbank in the river
when fifteen of the ffllIbusters were captured
and taken INTO custody Of the United States
Marshal. No Military force was available To
aid the civil authorities. A revenue cutter was,
however, pressed into service, and rendered
some valuable assistance.

the slightest suspicion that any person favors
the rebellion is sufficient ground for visiting
summary punishment upon him. This being
the state of affairs, many prominent natives
have found it impossible to remain ON the
island. and refugees are constantly leaving the
islandfor the United States. These refugees
think the revolution will be successful, basing
their opinion upon the ground that the sum-
mer weather will prove 30 fatal to the govern
ment regular troops that Spain will feel obliged
to abandon the enterprise, and that the volun-
teers who have enlisted in the ranks OF the
government army are nearly all me,cenaries,
who will 20 over to the winning side.
