inaeRt Of 200 Already Organized There.
NEW YORK, July pa Montreal dispatch
says: Ii is definitely ascertained that the Cuban

dition of about 900, expected to sail for Cuba
in two or three weeks. The commander OF the
Canadian contingent is Major Robinson. of the
Prince OF Wales Rifles, engaged i'm the Red
River expedition last year, and was very active
and efficient The regiment which Major Rob-
inson is to command will number about 600
About seven hundred have already enlisted and
a portion of them have been sent to the States,
where several rendezvous have been made along
the coast. Some of the men are in Portland, but
the majority are near New York city. Ii is gen.
orally supposed that the men will assemble near
Barnegat and embark go direct lrom New
York city, taking pleasure boat seemingly for
fishing excursion, and will be met by steamers
outside. Several thousand stand of arms 1.-THE
short Snyder rife) have quietly been passed
across the border and IL is supposed by the Off
GERS safely shipped by this time. The men
will receive S1O0 bounty and are promised six
months pay before they embark from the States
Their departure was very quietly managed.
The government had no notion OF what was
going on until many men had gone. The officers
known 70 be interested i'm the expedition are
Major j. A. Robinson, Captain Samuel Stephen
son, and Lieut.. Henry Stairnes, all of the Prince
of Wales Rifles; Captain Foster, late of the %
battalion, Quebec Rifles; and one or two officers
from Ontario whose names have not been dis
from volunteer organiZations-the Prince of
Wales, Victoria and Mount Royal Rifles, Hoche-
logs Light Infantry, and almost all the Red
River expedition encamped in the neighborhood.
One Of the officers told your correspondent that
he would have no difficulty in getting 5000 vol
unteers, and could not take one-third of those
who had offered. The expedition will sail from
New York in about three weeks.

The poor fellow himself was getting
mpatient-visibly so. He united his
lashing, stood upright upon the raft,
eagerly waiting TO seize thes boat, and
jump into her. She had but one more
fall TO pass, and that fall was situated
just above where he stood she paused
at the brink of it, swung down it like
lightning, and as he leaned forward to
seize her, she rose On the returning wave,
struck him in the chest, and he struggled
hopelessly in the overwhelming torrent
The exclamation of horror, for it was
not cry, which burst from the thousands
who by this time were assembled, shall
never forget, nor the breathless silence
with which we watched him, fighting
with the waters AS they hurried him along
upright, waving both arms above his head.
We lost sight OF him at intervals, yet
again and again he reaPpearcd, and
thought hours must have passed in Eer
of one brief half minute. But the end
came at last once more ] saw his arms
wildly waved above his head, and, in ar
instant, the crowd turned from the spot il
