The ex. citement, just there and then, was up to fever heat. All hands were -'phull of phury and phight,' and it was no use trying to pour oil on the waters by suggesting that nobody else had the news. When we left them, one of the indignants had mounted an oil barrel, and was rapidly lashing himself into an effervescence which was likely to be appeased only by a war right off against the villainous Spaniards, the annexation of Cuba! and a general thrashing for 'all reation.' To-day It, need hardly be added, Corn. Porter and Purser Smith are the lions of the town. The Crescent City, meanwhile, lies off in the stream, waiting opportu nity to come up to the wharf. About 9 o'clock, a procession of patriotic cxci tables, with music, went down to pay their respects; but, to their great morti fication, the steamer was not within hailing distance. After looking at her awhile, in silent admiration, they heat a retreat to prepare for what ever fur ther demonstration the future may bring forth. The Crescent City sails again for Havana on next Wednesday. She will take purser Smith on board, as usual, the report is, but whether she will also carry the mails, when no mails will be received, remain vet to be seen. The frequent comcununication with Havana, by means of our steam ers, under present circumstances, is likely to bring into contact the people of the two countries, who have been mutually excited against each other by the late proceedings, and a street brawl ori a disturbance, n, 'oatter how slight, would lie followed by conse quences, it is thought, of the mst Seri. ous character.
