Three Expeditions Landed in Cuba.

PENSACOLA, FLA, Sept. 27.-It is now
known that the steamer Summers N,
Smith landed three expeditions of men,
arms and ammunition in Cuba during
her twenty-six day voyage from Mobile
to this port. Her expeditions were with
out serious mishap, although she was
ono nearly captured by the gunboat
Helena. The Helena left Pensacola in
pursuit one week after the Smith sailed
from Mobile. The gunboat sighted the
flibuster west of Tortugas and fired a
shot to bring her to. The Smith put on q
full head Of steam and went south past
Cape Antoine, followed a short distance
by the Helena, which was soon distanced.
The Smith returned the same night and
landed her cargo before daylight. On an
other occasion she was brought to the
Winona and searched. She was then re.
turning from a successful trip and as
nothing contraband was found Of beard
she was allowed to proceed.
Dynamite" John O'Brien, it is said,
commanded the Smith.
