Cuban PrOOreSs.

According to the official journal Of the
Republic Of Cuba, the patriotic cause il
progressing most satisfactorily. The Re.
publican troops have marched from the
eusternmost extremity of the island to
within sixty miles Of Havana. oecupy-
ing all the strategic points in their way.
Intelligence received since the publiea.
tion of the Journal referred to makes 1t
certain that small parties OF The patriots
have been within fifteen miles Of IA.
vana and retired unmolested. Pnblic
property has also been destroyed in that
section Of the island to considerable
extent. If the patriots can hold base
line within thirty miles Of Havana. they
will virtually .is,late that city from the
other parts Of the island. This will be
matter Of vast military Importance
1t ia also certain that the disposable
force OF the Spaniards has been go re.
duced that both In Priente and CANA
9uey they remain in fortresses or en-.
trenched camps and will not heh&in the
field. Tho result Of this Ii thatthe pa
triots have full and complete possession
OF those districts and the Spaniards car
get neither information nor reinforce
ments. 1t ia further stated that the
| Spaniards are utterly unable to prevent
| the actions Of the patriots in La villas
and further westward, and that the pei

they cannot conquer the Cubenk, svcl
