MAN To BE INVESTIGATED.

| Sherman here.
CUBAN RUMoRs.
There is a rumor here among Cuban
refugees that a strong force of filibus-
tiers has landed near Manzanillo, Cuba,
but no credit is given it. The greatest
disappointment prevails here at the de-
cision of the General in regard
to the Virginius and the withdrawal of
the demand for salutes.
| CUBAN AFFAIRS.
A Havana correspondent represents
the Spanish minister, Saler, as saying to
him, in an interview on December 18th,
that his resignation had been condition
ed on a ready obedience to the consti-
tuted authority at Madrid. The matter
had now assumed a different phase, and
he should remain. He added, the gov
eminent is very DESTROYS to adjust and
compromise all matters at issue with the
| United States, and that while abuses
prevail in Cuba slavery is the prior
! question. With that satisfactorily set
tied all else will be easy. He thought
from FIVE to ten years would be required
to bring about successful emancipation.
With gradual emancipation no shock
| would be given to the tobacco and sugar
| planting interests of the island. -.
