rspec;al Dispatch to the N. O. Picayune. |

Especial Dispatch to the NJ. y. Plcayune.
WARRINGTON, May 1.-The Now York
napers ofthis morning contains a statement
from Gen. Jordan of the condition OF the
;nsrrgent military situation in Cuba, OF
which the following is the substance:
1.-THE revolutionary army suffers from
want Of arms. There are men enough, but
the progress Of the struggle is somewhat
impeded by the scarcity ofrifes and amunl'
t;on. If ten thousand stand of arms were
safely landed in Cuba to morrow, in a
weeks time there would not be a Cuban
without a rifle in his hands. Cuban sol
diers are willing to suffer any privation in
their struggle for independence.
REPORTS of dissensions among the in
~surgent leaders are untrue, and We're put
in circulation for a sinister purpose.
"The bravest soldiers in Cuba are the
negroes. They 6ght like ~dare-devils. One
negro. with a machete, attacked seven
Snanish volunteers at Los Minos, and, after
killing five, made his escape. At tire battle
of Los Minos the Major part of my con-
mand was composed Of negroes, and must
saw they were about the best soldiers
ever saw in action. Though poorly armed,
they made hash of the Spsnia'ds under
Pueslo, and gave them such an awful whip,
ping that the Spanish General never heia
up his head afterwards. think that bat
tie turne1 the tide for us. We got a large
quantity of arms and supplies, and have
been doing we'll ever since.
II want to publish that when asked to
speak about Cuba, am not going to favor
Cubans any more than | would spaniards.
| mean to tell a square story, for believe
the truth will benefit the cause of Cuba far
more than if I were to say that every Cuban
soldier had a Spencer rife, new uniform and
new pair of shoes, and more.
II want to say a few words for Ameri-
can officers in Cuba. They have all done
their duty faithfully. Col. VIM. Ryan, on
landing FROM the Anna and reporting at
Headquarters. was assigned to the position
of chief of staff to Quesada, and has done
much against the enemy since then: he
IS a brave dashing and judicious officer
Jordan feels confident that the revolution
will succeed. '1pEA.

Col bennett Of the Planters Banner,
speaking Of the above convention, which
held lis second session in New Orleans;
from the 25th TO the 2Sth Of April, says:
The editors there assembled resolved to
act for the State and the people promptly,
and fearessly, and to let the politicians re.
main behind. They deemed the example
Of Virginia the best they could find, and
the only one that it would do to follow.
And they were tired waiting for Jupiter
and chs Northern Democracy 10 save us.
Self.reliance was their only hope, and their
motto, providence helps those who help
themselves"
And they agreed that not only should
Louisiana, as d State, rely upon its own
citizens to redeem it from the jaws Of cor
ruption, but every parish, and every city
ward should work out its own local destiny;
that The State organization should have but
little to do with those Of the parishes and
wards.
Ehe New Orleans Picayune, Times, and
Renaissance, are strongly committed 10 IA
vcr Of the new movement. Judge BurwelL.
editor Of De Cows New Orleans Review,
was tile leading spirit in the Convention.
He is ia old Virginhan. is we'll posted ID

ration OF the psople of Louisiana.
The Press Convention was In session four
days. They examined, with carr, all the
positions they took. and are d prepared
TO stand up to thena without apologies or
ainchiny And we believe the people DC the
State will stand up 10 them, and chat on
