TUE CUBAN FILIBUSTERS. Sailing of an Expedition from New York ?Thirty Spaniel* Gunboats Building. Several of the New York papors deny the re port that an expedition, com posed of what is goneraUy styled "filibusters," has Bailed from that port for Cuba. Others, however, insist that such an expedition bus certainly sailed, and give euch minute details as to loave the publio to beliown that there Its truth in the rumor. The New York Times says: Aotive seoret enlistments of men for this ex pedition have boon going on in this city for some time past, and one or two drill-rooms have been open foi the purpose of drilling the recruits. A recruiting station or headquarters is aaid re have existed at No. 697 Drqadway, under tho care and stsjbrvision of an ox-offlcor of the Union armv, who claims that during the rebellion ho "pressed things" with Sheridan in the Valley. It is said that during the last two anontbs this offlcor . bas recruited* about four hundred and titty men, and the expedition which sailed on tlie fourth was composed of this forco, and perhaps pf others. . . Tho attention of the authorities was directed by those having the management of affairs to the wrong ship. Reports were circulated to tho effect that t her steamer Arago bad departed for tho West Indies with warlike intentions, and that sho carried about one thousand men, together with on ample cargo of guns and car tridges. Tho new United States Marshal or dered his subordinates to inquire into t he mat ter, and they ascertained that the Arago was cleared from the customhouse for St. Thomas, W. I., on Friday last, and that she subsequent auchorcd at Gravesend Bay, on the Long Inland ooast, nino miles distant from the bat tery, gbing from thence to sea on Monday, in stead of the following day, as was announced in some of the morning journals. Her pilot was found by tho marshal's officer, and he stoutly contradicted the statemont that there were men and arms on board the steatnor, pro nouncing it f tlso in every particular. He was corroborated by another p;lot, who was a wit ness to the departure of the vossel. The tu? boats Yankee and Phi bp, belonging to tho Atlantic Submarine Wrecking Company, wore mentioned iu tho report as having con veyed the troops on board the Arago. Cap tain Hazard, of tho former boat, was visited by our reporter, and furnishes a new and au thentic version of the sailiug of tho expedi tion. STATEMENT OF CAPTAIN HAZARD. He says that he was coming up the hay on Tuesday afternoon, when he was bailed by Mr. Walters, of the Wrecking Company, from the Battery, and told to go to the foot of Spring street, North River, and receive a cargo of pas esngers. He accordingly did so, and found about seventy-live men on the dock awaiting bis arrival. They bad no baggage and were apparently very anxious to got away. Tho most of thorn talked Spanish, and behaved in a manner calculated to excite suspicion. Alter they came on board, a man who a a ted as their leader requested the captain to put them on board the steamer Pierrot, which was lying near Governor's Island. ? On the arrival of the tugboat f?t the lafter vessel a large assemblage of dark-complexion ed men were discovered on her upper deck. About 125 of the-o were brought there by the tugboat Yankee from the foot of Eighth-street, North Rivor. Tho steam tug Martha was also reported to have conveyed men on board, in cluding the leaders of tho expedition. She was seen lying alongside the Pierrot by Cap tain Hazard. The commander of tho steamer, Captain George Fiel cher, iu conversation with Captain Hazard, divulged to him the existence of a lareo o rprn of arma and amimiuitiou in the hold of his vessel. Ho said that they wore obtained from Governor's Island, and that ho had them transferred by a tugboat to his ves sel on Thmisday laal, tho latter lying; at.Atlan tic Basin, Brooklyn, at that time. Captain Hazard regarded this information as reliable. Tho organizer of ?.ho expedition is represented to be General Domingo do Goisouria, wbo has devoter* bis whole hie to struggles for Cuban independence, besides engaging in numerous filibustering movements. In 1850 he fought against tbo Spaniards un der Lopez, and ho afterward participated with Walker in his raid on Nicaragua. He is de scribed as a man of medium height, spare build, long grey beard and very dark and piercing eyes. After the Pierrot had received the men from the tug boat Philip she weighed anchor and stood out to sea. It was intimated to Captain Hazard that she would land ber passengers somewhere along tho Cuban ooast, and that they would subsequently unite with the insurgents. He was not made cognizant of the fact, however, until it was too late to be of use to the authorities here. The Pierrot, it is alleged, is owned by Spofford, Tilesf?n & Co., and is regularly run between tbisoity, Havana, New Orleans and Galveston. The Arago, winch left ou Monday, is believed to be on her way to join a Peruvian squadron which is fitting out near New Orleans. Sbe was formerly owned by the North American Steamship Company, but sold by them on the 26th of April to par ties unknown, the company giving a bill of eale in blank. ACTION OF THE GOVERNMENT. The New York Sun has tbe following : While the Cuban patriots and tbe people of this city are sending brave men and the sinews ot war to aid m the work of consecrating Cuba to freedom, the authorities at Washington are using their official strength- to crush the pa triots, and perpetuate tbe tyranny of Spain in Cuba. We learn that the Spanish minister bas been assured that United States Vessels shall be sent to intercept tbe expeditions, and that revenue outters have sailed for that purpose. A revenue cutter sailed from the Brooklyn Navy Yard on Saturday to head off an expedition which is to sail from the Florida coast. The Spanish minister has also received assurances from Secretary Fish, that United States vessels are cruising off tbe mouth of tbe Mississippi and on tbe Florida ooast, for the purpose of seizing every craft which tmall attempt to bear material aid to tho patriots. THIRTY GUNBOATS FOB SPAIN. The government bas knowledge of tbe build ing of thirty powerful gunboats iu - New York, Boston and Canada, tor Spain. These vessels are lo cost six millions of dollars iu gold. All these vessels are to be finished by the 1st of June, and sent to Havana, where tbey are to be "mounted." THE WEATHER AND THE OROFS. fspartanbnrg. The Gazette of tbe 6th says: "There was a frost on Monday morning last, but we have not heard of the consequences.

The Enquirer of the 6th says : "On the morn ing of the 3d instant, there was quite a perce p tibi* frost here, which we have hoard spoken ot as general throughout the county. What damage was done to the orop we cannot tell; but some farmers say that part of their cotton bas died since, and as tbey suppose, in conse quence of tbe frost. We do not think, bow ever, that the damage was gi eat, as the froat was not heavy enough to do much injury." . Greenville. The Mountaineer of the 6th says : "On last Monday and Tuesday mornings there were light : host s visible in this section. The oldest in habitants can barely remember having seen a frost so late in Cue season before. Blight damage, if any, baa occurred.'' , Lancaster. The Ledger of tbe 6th says : "Frost made its appearance in several sections of this county on Monday and Tuesday mornlnga last."

The Board is fully awake to the noons*!ty of em ploying brethren who will establish Sunday schools throughout the destitute regions. Calls for such in strumei.tallies aro roustautly made. ; Wo fre quently bear of places aloug the line of our great rivers In Mississippi, Missouri. Arkansas and Louisiana, where large saundav schools could be, collected, and permanently established, it a minister or Sunday school agent could be procured to visit them and or ganize the schools. 1 here are many such neighbor hoods with no preacher nor meeting-house ; no Sun day school?where the people are perishing for lack of knowledge. Had wo the means we could do a work in this way, from which results would soon ho t-een in multiplied good, unequal ed, poibape, in any other held of operation. these rieh lands ?re soon to be occupied. Emigration !s rapidly Meiling in, and in a few veara the reli gious Btatus of these populations will bo fixed. Now is our opportunity, and the work Which OUr hands, l'uni to do, We should do with all our 'night?a work which the Sunday school Board located in Memphis can accomplish in a way no other organization can, and we d> believe that the co-operation of the whole denomination should be given us an Its accomplishment. The Buspeu bIou of the operations of the board in Greenville previous to its r, mov.i I to Memphis, and the embarra?-meuts that'surrounded its operations alter its removal? the fact that the paper was printed n Philadelphia, and the mail-book, no., were there, cau-oJ a lelay in Its first Ibbuob, much to its disadvantage. Since the resignation of the corrfls^oudiug secretary, the paper has been edited by Mrs. S. ttVfmM. and while its subscription list has fallen ( ff considerably in the East, it has Bteadily lucroaaed in tho West, and now more than pays its expenses. It U the determina tion of the board immediately to improve its api e ir an ce, and an soon as pooslble to -issue it semi monthly. We feel confident that the patronage given it wou'd have been very much larger but for the idea prevailing m Borne quarters, that it would not be continued. How this impressi-u Was made upon the minds of a very cons'derablo number of our churches and people, each oue must judnc for him self. Hut this impression once removed, and the fact known tbrtt the paper is a sue-ess, and perma nently established, its lists will rapidly increase, and its influence tor good re* felt throughout tbo laud. Iho board by the action of ihe convention, re gar dH the denomination p edge! to the support of this paper, a d beg to submit that it ought to be made the Sund ly school paper of tho Whole south. BOOK PUBLICATIONS. Ihe board also have ihe Btcrcotyoe plates of a fifty volume library, originally gotten up by the southern Baptist Sunday school Union, which will be, to some extent, revised, and a now library brought out at an oarly nay. In the item of these pinkos ft will be Been that the assets of the board have boon Increased from $300 to $3,640 5u. Inadiltloulo this, at the requestor the board. Bev. J. It.

We have also miscellaneous pledges, amountiug to several huudreJ dollars, most ot which will be realized.

V>r. Royce com plimented the State of Virginia for the noble part she, impoverished as she was, had%iken in sustaining the institution. Notwithstand ing, lie said, that the brethren in Virginia had raised over $100,000 for the endowment of a baptist institution in that State, she had con tributed some $10,000 in bonds to the seminary at Greenville, probably surpassing the contri butions to this object of any other state. The institution needed a library, and the brethren ought to see to it that the students be sup plied. The institution needed still more funds, which he hoped would be eeonred at this meet mftev. Dr. Fuller, of Baltimore, then address ed the convention at. length in behalf of the seminary. Bev. Dr. Poindexter made a s til ring appeal to the convention in behalf of < ho institution'. Rev. Charles Manly, of Alabama, eon of the late Bev. Basil Manly,.D. D., a raduateor tiie j seminary, announced to tho convention hat J the library ot his father, in aoco:dance with his j father's intention, would: in the course of tho year, be turned over to the Theological Semi nary at Greenville. Other addresses and appeals were made, and an opportunity afforded to raisa Bubtjearii'tions to the endowment; of the institution. Re sponses were liberally made .from individual members of ohnrohes, North is well as South, and irom churches. A. proposition had been male at Baltimore last year to raise $40.000 in $500 bonds, making in all 80 bonds: Fifty of these bonds had been taken at Baltnnoie, and as the payment of the coupons of the same were conditioned on the taking of the whole 80, the effort was made to raise the 60 addition al, ah of which were raised except two. Other subscriptions were taken, the whole amount ing to $15,400. After Borne announcements, the cor /en t ion adjourned till half-past three o'clock V. SI. af?ebnoom session. The treasurer's report of the cod /antion was read, showing a balan?a in hand r f the treasu rer, $204 90. The report was ordered to be spread upon the minutes. The treasurer of tbo .Board of Foreign nlia sions submitted bis ropoit, which was read. The report indicates the sources of supply to the funds ot the board to be as follows: From New Yoik, $10; California, $5: District Colum bia, $114 99; Maryland, $2587 62; Virginia, $1968 87; North Carolina, $499 82j South Caro lina, $868 47; West Virginian $205 86; Georgia, $229699; Alabama,$165698; Mississippi, $48260; Louisiana, $294 95; Tenneeeoe, $669 60; Ken tucky. $4720 55; Mrs. Crawford's school, $287 80; Indiana, $10 ; England, $975 60 ; Scotland, $1176 25; Florida, $21 50; Arkansas, $15; Texas, $86 28; Missouri, $581 60. Dr. hUller, from the sp?cial committee, read the report on the Chinese, Indian and African Hissions. As the report was the foundation of animated discussion we publish it substantially enttre. The committee to which was referred ao much of the report ol the Domestic and Indian Mis sion Board as relates to the Chinese, Indian and colored people, respectfully repot t : First. That this body hat cause to be grate ful to God fbr such a zealous, self-deny tng laborer as brother Schneider, and that it is our duty to co-operate witty the Maryland Union Association, is scsiainisp m*> miesiouary and his t>mall but faithful church. The Indians, as the original owoets of tho land we occupy, are objeots of great interest and ought to awaken oui- fonder sympathies. As oppoi tnnity offers atjd as tuuds are inrnish ed, your ommittee rooimmond that the board meet the renewed anltujAes and wants of tho Creeks, Choetiwg ana bbero?ees. The portion of the report which embraces the rroodmen is very bsief, and at demands our grayertnl attention, Before the late war. out uern masters, (with few exoaptions, and these ma le most odious by tho common in-' Btinetive verdict of our entire native land,) wore friends of too*, negro, and whatever ohanges the war brought, he should .not bo hold accountable for therh. As those to whom w* once sustained most close dnd solemn relations, t?ese people should now bo regarded as liavtfig peculiar claims upon us. The colored pcofilo are exceedingly dis posed to religions excitement, and tre, there fore, alarmingly exposed to the artifhes of fan , atiCB and demagogue*. Preachers they wHl I have. Already tney are beginning to open their eyes to designing men from the SouJ??, well as the North, who have crept ?n arnoTig j them to preochChristnot of sincerity. -V. Our love for our country, and onr tilegianoe , to truth, enoohr?g?u? to feel thai we have conto into Christ's Kingdom for a time like I this1. All summon us to send missionaries into, the field which is at our doors, in which the enemy is so busy sowing weeds, and from which our contributions and toll mist reap a " >loa?od harvest. j *r Before concluding this report ?e \\o\fld atzg ] gest to The body that they instruct the board H to avail thorn-elves of any opening which tho head of the church may provide for giving Bound theological instruction to the colored men who may desire to enter tho ministry. In tho present organization of the South thoro must arise a class of .-uch preachers. Tho members of this convention well know tho zeal and ability with which some of them ministered in former days; and if the religious education of this largo eloment of oar p< pulation be dosira blo. it is fir moro important that, in rolip.ioua faith and doctrine, those should be enlightened and cultivated, who, as teachers, are to exer cise their influence on tbe minds and hearts and consciences pf tho millions allied to them by a common origin and color. (Signed) It. Fiti/lbr, Chairman. Iu support of the recommendation in rotation to the religious instruction of the colored peo ple, Rev. Dr. Samson and Rev. Dr. Curry made addresses. They both thought the recom mendation contained in tho report to bo just, and demanded attention at tho hands or the convention. In tbe course of his remarks, Dr. Curry stated that he had un 1er ttood from the remarks of Dr. Samson that there wore now about twenty or thirty colored persons in Romo being educated to bo Roman Catholic priests, and to come a:>d labor among the colored peo ple of this country. Dr. Samson explained that there were thirty of that, das.- sometime ago. Ho thought thero must be now not less than one hundred. Rev. Mr. Morgan, of England, who has been for some months travelling in this coun tay, expressed the interest which he had felt in travelling over the country. Ho iiad beon in cline t to say, hko tho Queen of Sboba, the half had not been told him. He expressed tho doop iuterest-whicli he felt in the elevation of the four millions of colored people in tho land, and desired that the convention express, by reso lution, their teoling* oil that subject. Ho wanted tho convention to express, by reso lution, whethor thoy desired uid ( which he thought they could get) id the elevatiou and education of tho colored people, or whether they intended to do all for them themselves. Rev. J. Culpeper, ot South Carolina, spoke in opposition to tho spirit of Rev. Mr. Mor gan's remarks. He ndvocatod the religious in sliuction Or the colored people, but thought that great injury had been done them bv the political preachers who had come in to preach among them tor tho sake of filthy lucre, or for the promotion of their political aims. The report drew forth an interesting discus sion from Rev. Drs. Poiudoxter, Winkler, Reynolds, and Dargan. All of theso ministers expressed themselves strongly in favor of edu cating, religiously, the colored people, but bore strong testimony against the influence of the n-w comers to teach the negroes politics as well as religion. Rev. M. J. Wellborn, of Georgia, thanked God for tbo report. He regarded it as the work of God working in the hearts of the brethren. After some remarks by Rev. Mr. Wilhams, Hon. D. A. Vason, of Georgia, offered the fol lowing resol tious: Resolved, That we recognize as our highest duty to engage immediately in the work of sending the Gospel of Christ to the colored people within our bounds, and for that purpose it is Resolved, That a committee of five members of the Baptist Church be appointed for each State represented in this body, who shall be s lierr li'iepjs1 h a Wa/^oe' -^n a;eiiaary to accomplish that object. Resolved, That such committees shall be auxiliary to tbo domestic board or this body, Judge Va s on made some forcible remarks on the introduction of his resolutions, in favor of placing the education of the-colored people ' under tho ca<e of Southern Christians. On motion, the report together wit h the res olutions of Judge Vason, were lecommitted to the special committee, to wnich tbe names of Vason, Jo er and Wilhams were added. The Committee on Preaching submitted their report, which was referred, and tho con vention then adjourned. In tbe evening a mass meeting of the friends of domestic missions was held, at whim interesting addresses were delivered and a collection taken up. i [The above is condensed somowhrt from the full and able report of the proceed-" inga of the convention published in the Macon Journal and Messenger.?Ed. News.] ?The Washington National Iutelligencer makes tbe following quasi official announce ment: "The President does not deem it pru dent at present to take any official notice ot Cuban affairs. The government has not been officially notified of the troubles there in a manner to require any other interference than such as may be necessary to proteot American citizens and interests, and keep well informed ae to the progress of events. These things General Grant has no doubt provided for, al though he may not deem it wise ta impart all i.iit information he baa in his possession to the public through the press. H? is not indiffer ent H> tho patriotic desires of the insurgents, nor the commercial advantages that would re sult both to Cuba and to this country from an nexation; but while affairs remain in their present position in Spain be does not see how we can in honor lend aid and comfort to the in-, ?urgents of Cuba. It is most likely tint should the Cuban Republicans achieve their indepen dence and apply for annexation to this country, the President would act promptly and do all in his power consistent with honor to comply With the request." ?It is said that when Lord Byron sent to his wife the well known touching lines? "Fare thee well I And, if fore vor, Still, iorover lare thee well i" he enclosed in the same envelope a butoher'a bill, with the pencilled remark: "Please look over this; I don't think we had so much meat/' ear*great attraction j?a massiy?
