Affairs in Cuba.

New York, 81. "A letter from the
managing editor of the most impor-
tant paper published in the West
Indies (the DiariO de la Marine, OF
Havana, says in regard 10 the stu.
alton on the island, that it has been
exaggerated in Havana papers. The
crisis we are passing through is Of
consequence rather on account OF
the effects which it momentarlly
produces than on account Of any
fsr>reschiDg result which may posi-
sibly come about. 1t is really of no
speclalimportance here, nor does the
fiibustering movement influence
the regular transaction of business &.

taken by government, that affairs
will promptly return to their normal
'tate Of prosperity and progress.
