THE CUBAJf REVOLT.
Arrival of Warren and Costello-Vo
Enthusiasm, BO Reception-The Ca?
hans and the Fenians-More About
the (?aaker City-The Government
'.Abosas to Act"-The spaniards Cm
tracttng for Gunboat-.
A New York letter, of the 8th instant, says:
The well-known Fenians, Warren and Cos?
tello, arrived at this pott this afternoon, at 8
o'clock, but there were no fellow Fenians on
hand to receive them at the docks. They were
allowed to touch lerra firma without eecort;
not even the Father Mathew Societies, wuo
were perambulating the city at the ttme, tbink
. ina it worth while to march to tbe hoyadas
deck t?tender an escort to the gallant martyrs.
They disembarked, marched up Broadway,
presented themselves shortly after at the 8t.
Nicholas Hotel, and passed the evening io com?
pany with Colonel Gibbon, Vice-Pr?sident of
the Fenian Brotherhood, and his fellow-labor?
ers in the cause.
THE CUBANS AND THE FENIANS.
A story having been started that the two
regiments of Fenians enlisted in this city were
about to embrace the Cuban cause, there has
been an excited paw-wow at the Fenian head?
quarters, corner Forty-seoond-street aod
Broadway, the various newspapers that print?
ed the rumor berne condemned in the most un?
mitigated terms by those wno continue to
swear to the green above the red. The fact,
however, is that negotiations are aotaallv pend?
ing between Cuban officers and the Fenian offi?
cers in regard to some eight hundred and fifty
men now em oiled in Fenian regiments, about
their transfer to Cuban territory since no Fe?
nian work of promise presente itself for their
immediate attention. *
THE QUAKES CITT.
The fact that th a Quaker City is being fitted
out here as an Alabama to prey upon the span?
ish commerce has been continued. Nautical
men of well known. integrity have been on
board, examined the vessel, and pronounced
her io a fit state to leave tho ci tv as a priva?
teer. When the Spanish Consul heard of it he
made bia appearance at the United States Mar?
shal's office, and, lt is said, bas lodged a for?
mal complain 'gainst the Quaker City. Con?
sidering the numerous dispatches received
here from-Washington daring the past twenty
four hours, I should not be surprised il we
should hear that embargo had been laid upon
the Quaker City. If not, then it is positive that
the government intends to give both Cuba anet
Spain a fair sh ow here and thus maintain
NEUTRALITY
between the home government and its Faithful ,
Isle. For it is well known by this time that
during the past week tbe sum of $300 OOO in .
gold bas boen received here by tbe agents of
the Spanish government, and that the DeJam?
meter Iron Works, it is alleged, have contract- 1
ed to furnish tni Spanish navy with several |
small gunboats for service in the Cuban shallow ,
waters. If the Cubana receive munitions and ,
material from here, so do the Spaniards, abd \
that to a mach larger ex ent.
Important Instructions sent to Admiral '
Hoff- He is ordered to Prevent A m c rt- 1
can V?asels hoing Searched by spanish
Croisera. . '
A Washington telegram to the New York '
Tribune says :
The Secretary of the Navy has called the at- '
tendon of Admural Hoff, commanding the 1
North Atlantic Squadron now in Cuban waters, I
to tbe fact that armed SpantBh vessels are in ;
the habit of searching Amane in marcbantmon, .
not only in Spanish waters, but ia the neutral
waters of the Gulf of Mexico, for the purpose
ofhMertaiuiug if any deserters are concealed 1
i n 'those ves jefe, or th it they contain anni and 1
other contraband m norial for the insurgent '
Cubans. The Department aireo s that tbe
Admiral keep a vigilant watch hereat er and
prevent any such infraction of international
law, and advise hun that his duties are io pro?
tect not oniy American citizens, but American
comm >rcJ as weil. He is also ordo ? ed to pi e
vent American war vessels from searching mor
chant vessels, it being their auty to protect ,
American trade and not to molest it.
Progress of the ? evolution-Pro ?pee ts of
. the Cubana.
? Tho Navy Department hasreooived dispatch- '
BS from Bear Admiral H. E. Hoff, command?
ing North Atlantic squadron dated ofl Havana, 1
90th April and 1st May. Since his last dis?
patches of the 27th ult., no further nows of
great importance from tho interior bas been
received. On the 17th April, troops command?
ed by Generals Letona and Encalante arrived
at Neu vi tas from Villa Clara, and the day after
General Lesea appeared at Neu vi tas, very un?
expectedly, with twelve hundred men from
Puerto Principo, having started with twenty
two hundred, and left detachments on the
road. They reported no resistance on the
march, although large bodies of insurgents
were posted un the high ground at some dis?
tance from the road. Numbers of well-con?
structed trenches, breastwoi k*, ditches, Ac.,
were visible. |
The 4000 men concentrated at Nsuvitas,
among them 1500 Catal in volunteers. recently
from Spain, were to commence operations on 1
the railroad between Neuvitas aid Principe im- ,
mediately. About 15 DO started ou the S3 J,
convoying a provision train. The expedition
ander General Lesea is to repair the road tem?
porarily, get cars along, and providion tbe
troops at Principe, said to be on half rations. '
Lt is reported tba? General Qjeeada, the revo- j
lufiooary leader, purposely allowed the Span- ,
ards to march without opposition from the in- i
ierior to the seacoast ; but intended to obstruct i
their return, and, if possible, to oaptuie the '
provision trams. i
? Dr. Simmons is still confined at Principe, ac- 1
rased of circulating insurrectionary proclama- '
?ons and giving aid and oooifort to the rebels. .
3eneral Lessen has stated tbat the doctors
life was spared because he is an American. j
A Washington letter says :
Cubans here do not placa much reliance in ,
admiral Hoff's dispatches from Cuba, and they ?
profess to bs in possession of information
'hiebsnows a different condition of things f
rom that indicated by the dispatches referred
*>. They expect, shortly tbe formation of a
itrong provisional government, sod say they
ran produce snob evidence at will induoe a f
.ecogni tion of tbe indeoendence of the island, 1
>r the concession of belligerent rights. 1
The following particulars are given io a dis?
patch to the Baltimore San, dated Washing- *
?on, May 9 : (
Senor Garcia, the Peruvitn Minister, asserts S
positively that the st&mor Arago was the 1
property of the Peruvian Government, sud
that when she left New York she had not on
board either men, munitions of wai. or mo?
ney for tba Cuban insurgen ts. The Peruvian
aovernrnsp t bas sided with the Spanish Gov- '
rrnmsot .gainst tue Cab ms. and wilt not give .
.ny aid or comfort to the latter.
Confidential and reliable advices from Cuba I
bave been received here A hieb are not very ac- 1
eeptab'e to those who have advocated the re- j
cognition of the belligerent righi a of tue in- j
s?rcente by this government. Strange as it
may appear the revolution was infoi malty
planned by Generala Dulce and Pr.m, who
hoped to shake the rule o Queen Isabella m :
Cuba, and then to revolutionize the mother ?
country, bat Spain unexpectedly took tbe ]
initiative, and now the very generals who de* j
sured to make Cuba free are ouJeavono? to re?
tain tbe island asa colony of the nsw SpaniBh
government.
The Cubans ware no' willing io bo transfer?
red from colonists ot a monarchy io the .ami
position undera repnblio, and they therefore
determined to continue the wartare. Tuen
success is hopeless, howevor, unless thev se?
cute moral ana material aid from o ute i de. But
they will permit their fertile island to be laid
waste boforo they will succumb to overpower?

THE REPUTATION
this excellent medicine en

(uren, many of which are
truly marvellous. Invete?
rate ca-ea of 'ScroluJous

tined and cured bj il.
Scrofulous sflcciions and
disordeis, whlct were ag?
grava ed by thu scrota
loua contamination until
they were painfully uffllcilug, have been radically
cured In such great bamber J in ainu 11 ev-rv section
ol tho country, that the public scarcely need to be
informed of ita virtues or ase?.
Scrofulous poison is oue of the most desirucilve
enemies of our rare. Often this unseen snd unlcll
teiun of tbe organism undermines the constitution,
and invites the attack ol enfeebling or latsl diseaaes,
wit bout exciting a suspicion of its presence. Awaiti,
lt seems to breed injection through tbe body, and
then, on some tavorable occasion, rapidly develops
Into one or other ol its hideous forms, either on tbe
surface or among toe vitals. In tbo lutter, tubercle*
nisy bo suddenly deposited in the lungs or heart, or
tumors formed in tbe liver, or it shows lt" pr?sence
by eruptions on tbei-kin, or loul ulcerations on tome
part of tho body. Hence the occasional use ot s
brttu- of ihiM SAR-APAUH LA i- a disable, even
when no active symptoms of disease appear. Per?
