relation to an alleged departure OF the schooner
Maria for Cuba, loaded with arms ara ammunition

relating to him. and says he believes 1t to be false
in all other particulars
Some days since the captain of the yacht Anna
called on Marshal Harlow and told MIN he desired
to leave for Nassau and take fifteen passengers ana
asked whether there would be any attempt to de-
tain him. Marshal Harlow had previously been
watching the vessel, ana when the captain commu-
nicated with him he went on board and thoroughly
examined the vessel in every way. and round no
arms, ammunition. nor anything else on BOARD OF
suspicious character. He then consulted with Dis
tct Attorney Plerrepont ana they both came TO the
conclusion tnat as the vessels papers were all rights
Is she carried no arms nor ammunition, and had q
perfect right 10 carry passengers, they had power
TO detain her. and she accordingly sailed ostensibly
for Nassau, IN the early part Of TINS week.
There was report In circulation last evening to
the effect that the steam yacht Anna had left for
Cuba, and that when outside OF Sandy Hook she was
met by tuRbOat, with number or CuDans on
board. IL Is also stated that Javier Csneros. the
person who plloted the first expedition on board the
.Perit left with the Anna. He says he intends to be
letters OF marque from Cespedes. and expects to
give these to certain shipping firms in this CITY, who
have engaged to NJ out priyateers under the Cuban

which this administration considers 1t duty to

transmitted BY that route are subject to examina-
ion and control or the French government aud 1t iS
evident that The passage was written under the i'm
preston that SUCH are the conditions OF tue conces

This administration exercises no control OF that
nature, either over dispatches from America or
from any other quarter; but IL is s duty that
communications are transmitted over the caDie in
the oroer o. their fling or OF their reception at
Brest, and that there is no favOrltsm In this re-
spect. 1t must, also on account OF the teleRraphc
monopoly hed by the government see that no de-
spatches are candcStiney introduced upon the line
and so avoid the tax which legltmately accrues to
the State Such s the double aim OF It's control to
project at once the interests Of the pubic and the

Finally, the conditions under which this depart

Governor McDouga, with Colonel Dennis and Mrs.
Begg, arrived here this afternoon from Fort Aber-
cromDie The party seems somewhat respondent at
the state OF matters at Red river; not so much from
the fOrmldabeneSs Of the lnSurrectOn from seve-

authorities Of the Hudson Bay Company, includ-

The ottawa government 1t Is gatnered from the
party, has done much to weaken the authority OF
the Governor by their dllatOriness. The spir-
itua authorities have been excessively busy,
but Is expected that the Vicar General OF Quebec
has authority from Rome to clear away that phase;
