Hail them, hills! and sing, rivers, in vel.
come! o sky,
Light your fairest star-fres as the old
troops march by!
They come to their own
Where their glories are known,
And the songs on loves lips, and the
lights in loves eye!
They come crowned of glory:
Fame knows their white story;
Love clasps and believes them,
And Honor receives them;
And "Welcome.' is rending
The round earth, and sending
It's music on high!
This is the land they fought for;
This the proud soil they wrought for
In the great days gone by!
Nothing of wrong that we greet them
today,
For Gods in the glory that CLEANS from
the gray!

& Landing Effected.

KEY WEST, May 13.-The transport
steamer Gussie which left here with az
expedition for Cuba on Wednesday
night, had e lively engagement with
the Spaniards at Csbanas, province
OF Pinar del Rio, yesterday. The Gussie
carried 1000 rifles and large quantity
of ammunition intended for the Cubans
The expedition was directed by Capt.
Dorat, who took with him over one
hundred infantry men and ten Cuban
scouts. The Gussie was met of the
Cuban coast by the Wasp and Manning,
which escorted her in. As they ap-
preached the short Spanish soldiers
opened fire upon the expedition
aud the gunboats replied with
effect, enabling the expedition to land.
On shore the battle was renewed. The
Spanish troops had retired to their
works aud to the woods and directed a
constant but inaccurate Ere upon the
Landing party. The latter was later
reinforced by body of armed insur.
surgents, who had been informed of the
coming of the expedition. Then, IN
der the fire OF the gunboats, the Span
ish force was compelled to withdraw
and the mission of the Gussie was ac-
complished. One of the American party
was shot in the arm. The Spanish loss
is not known, but must have been
heavy.

DEWEY AND MONTEJO.

The Hong Kong correspondent OF
the London Times says: II had con-
ver=ation with Admiral Montejo, who,
recognizing the superiority Of the
American squadron, admitted that his
chief object was to seek the protection OF
Of the Cavite forts. The report of the
admira!'s death was incorrect. He
fought in the Reiua Christina till she
was on fire fore and aft and had fifty
two killed. On the advice of his flag
lieutenant, he transferred his flag to
the Isla de Cuba. Eventually, after
two and half hours fighting he gave
the signal to scuttle and abandon her.
Admiral Dewey ceased fire and ask
ed permission of the forts to destroy
the burning ships. Admiral Montejo
replied 1.-The ships are at your mercy
do as you like" The American fire
was then resumed till the Spanish
squadron was completely annihilated.
The captain OF the Boston, who carried
the flag OF truce at the end of the bat
tie, said to Admiral Montejo: "You COM
batted US with four very bad ships, not
"arsnlpS. t nave never Seeu uelOEe
drawer fighting under such unequal con-
ditions. 1t is great pity you exposed
your lives on vessels not fit for fighting.
Admiral Dewey sent message to
Admiral Montejo as follows: ~
have pleasure in Offering my congratu.
lations on the gallant manner il which
you fought"
Admiral Montejo attributes the re-
sponsibility OF his defeat to the govern
ment in Madrid. He had only obsolete
vessels, though he had requisitioned the
government for ships. He had no tor
pedoes excep; some which he hastily
constructed Gu OF int hectual material.
His original intention was to remain in
Subik and offer battle, but he returne d
to Cavite because the Subik forts were

A Postponement.

TAMPA, Fla, May 13-The sighting
of the Spanish aotilla off Martinique it
is thong int will cause another postpone.
meet of the sailing of the fleet of trans
ports to Cuba from Port Tampa. There
is good reason to believe that Saturday
or Sunday had been fixed upon as the
date for the embarkation OF the 5000
regular troops assembled here and the
work of preparing and loading the
transports has been rushed. Now that
there ia another chance for conflict be-
tween the American and Spanish fleets
army movements will await until that
conflict actually takes place. Should
Admiral Sampson prove victorious no
no doubt is entertained here that orders
will be given for instant embarkstion
and the opportunity the army has
been longing for will be at hand.
New YORK, May 13.-War Depart
mant has issued orders that the trans,
