EDWIN FORREST.  " Sworn and subscribed before me, an alderman of the city of Philadelphia, this 7th day of August, 1850. "JOEL COOK, Alderman." The subpoena issued to Mr. Forrest is made returnable ou the 3d of next month.  It will be seen that several literary gentlemen are named in this "declaration"—more than one of whom is known in England ; one, especially, by his agreeable volumes. Stilt it is only justice to say that the public here, or at least a majority, believe that Mr. Forrest is mistaken in this matter—that his ear has been abused with inuendos and gossiping reports against Mrs. Forrest, until he has convinced himself that she must have dishonoured him. There can be no doubt that he believes so ; but people have great faith in the innocence of Mrs. Forrest, and hope that on trial it will appear.  The latest arrival from Cuba states that there has been an erneute at Puerto Prindipa, but gives no further particulars, except that the trocps fired upon the insurrectionists, and killed or wounded about thirty. Perhaps the whole affair is doubtful —a rumour got up to stimulate a new invasion. It is singular that in connexion with this matter several Washington correspondents state that the United States Government has positive intelligence of the formation of a new expedition against Cuba. One would have thought that the warm reception given to Lopez and his band would have cooled the adventurous ardour of men who desire to rush into piracy, under the pretext of interfering with the affairs of foreign nations, which latter they have not the shadow of a right to do. Bat I hardly think that the United States and international laws, and the faith of treaties, will again be broken in that way, at least so far as may relate to Cuba. The Indians appear to be committing terrible devastations on the Texan frontier, many houses having been burnt and planters 'murdered. The savages are said to muster 6,000 strong, but this is probably an exaggeration. We have an account from the south to the effect that the Texans have raised 8,000 men for the purpose of taking possession of New Mexico, and in defiance of the laws and Government of the United States. If this be really so, the men had much better be sent against the Indians who are violating Texan homes and firesides. But then people here are apt to believe that these 8,000 men are all moonshine.  3,203 immigrants have arrived at New Yoik in one day, on Thursday last. I am sorry to record that, on Wednesday last, fourteen women and children belonging to a pic-nic party were drowned by the upsetting of a boat at Lynnfield, near Boston. Mr. George Nicholls, of England, destroyed himself at Albany, a few days since. Mr. Barnum now offers a premium of 200 dollars fur the best national song, to be sung by Jenny Lind as an introduction on ber arrival in America. A letter infurms me that there are 508 vessels now lying in the harbour of San Francisco, California, and 100 at Benicia and Sacramento.  The mortality is still great from the cholera in the western cities ; yet there is reason to hope, from the latest accounts, that the pestilence is subsiding. The sun-stroke has been very fatal—thirteen deaths from this cause in a single week at new Orleans, and as many perhaps in New York and Philadelphia. Europeans are very liable to this affection in July and August, before they become acclimated. It is, therefore, unwise to leave their native shores at such times as must ensure their arrival here in the hot season.— Chronicle.
