TURE.
The appearance of the island when |
came on deck next morning was al
together changed. Although the
breeze had now utterly failed, we had
made IA great deal of way during the
night, and were now lying becalmed
about half mile to the southeast of
the low eastern coast. Gray-colored
woods covered large part of the sur
face. This even tint was indeed
broken up by strealSs of yellow sand
break in the lower lands, and by many
tall trees Of the pine family, out-top-
ping the othcrs--some singly, some in
clumps; but the general co!oring was
uniform and sad. The hills ran up
clear above the vegetation in spires of
naked rock. All were strangely
shaped, and the Spy-glass, which was
by 300 or 400 feet the tallcst on the
island, was likewise the strangest in
confguration, running up sheer from
almost every side. and then suddenly
cut of at the top like pedestal to put
statue on.

Camp Sevilla, Cuba, June 27, via
 Kingston, Jamaica, June 2S. - A
 council of war was held on Sunday
 night between Generals Sbafter and
 Wheeler, of the American army,
 and General Garcia, of the Cuban
 forces. and other insurgent generals,
 at which it was decided to attack
 Santiago on Tuesday (today). Gen.
 Wheeler's men have cut the city's
 water mains, and the only water in

 his headquarters from this place to Jaragua. Transports are rapidly landing the last of the supplies of forage and ammunition and the last of the four light batteries of artillery started for Jaragua by road Ordnance officers say the road is impracticable for siege guns and landing facilities for them are in adequate. About 500 mules are still corralled here. The military authorities are rapidly making up pack trains to take forward rations. The men ashore have five days sup plies but ten days are needed as precsution against a sudden move. The third aud ninth cavalry remain here guarding the material ashore. All other regiments are being passed as rapidly as possible toward San tiago de Cubs. Active operations before that place are officially ex- peeted to begin on Wednesday.
 New York, June 2.-A special to the Herald" from Port Antonio says: It has remained for the staunch dynamite cruiser Vesuvius to dem onstrate that the entrance to San tiago harbor was not completely blocked by the sinking of the Mer- rimae. While poking her nose about the entrance to the harbor a few nights ago. the Vesuvius discovered ample room in which to pass the wreck of the Merrimac. She went in, made observations along the inner harbor, and then came back to sea getting around the wrecked col Her without difficulty.
