ACCOUNT OP THE EXPEDI
TION AGAINST CUBA.
Key West. May 22.
On the 2d May, 1850, the l.rij
Susan Loud left tlm city of New Or
leans, having on bonnl 150 officers
nnd men, under the cnmmanil of Col.
Wheat, and nfter cruisint' in the jjulf
for nliont 7 (lavs met the steamer
Creole, which hail on hoard 17."iinen,
under the command of Colonel Untied
and General Lopez and stall". The
men on hoard the Ini emhaiked in
the steamer, which atcered for the
Isle of M uuc, whore we took in wa
ter. Wc remained there two days
nnd again got under way and proceed
ed to a small uninhabited island, some
fifteen miles distant, where we met
Col. O'llara, in barque Georginnn,
with 250 men. who joined us. Hav
ing our full compliment, amounting to
some 000 men, including officers, we
pot under way and arrived at the port
of Cardenas (Cuba,) on Sunday morn
ing, May 1!), at about 1 A. M. and
immediately landed our forces. At
half past 2 A. M. took up the line of
march to the Ijovernor.i mansion.
In front of the Vluca, and, when but a
short distance from the mansion, pro.
cured n guide and proceeded till
within some sixty yards of the Gov
ernor's residence, when we were wel
comed by a shower of bullets from all
quarters, particularly from the lops
of houses, windows, piazzas,
which -wounded Colonels O'llara and
Wheat and many men, none mortally.
Wo then commenced to show them
that jvo were on hand and ready to
reciprocate their politeness. At it wc
went, the inhabitants having nil the
advantage. After an engagement of
about one hour, the white Hair was
displayed from a window of the Gov.
ernor's residence, which caused our
firing to cease. After wailing a suit
able time to hear from them, they
re-commcuccd litim:. dangerously
Wounding Lieut. E. L. Jones, of C nn
pany K. Louisiana 'Urgimeut, ami
slightly vvoundiiiir some 1(! men. The
Governor's residence was then fired,
which caused its inmates, consisting
of Governor nnd stair to surrender.
He was, together with his staff nnd
troops, in nil 100, placed under guard
in their bat racks. Wc liberated about
150 prisoners, whom we found in jail.
All arms, ammunition, horses, &c.
wero collected from the citizens for
our use. We remained in quiet pos
scssi'-n of the city until duk of the
evening, during which time the entire
force, except General Lopez ami stall"
iind a command ol 25 men under
Cart. Logan, of Kentucky Regiment,
had returned on board ol our steamer
to rest, when, to our surprise, the
command was attacked by 150 to 200
lancers and cavalry, all mounted.
Captain Logan defended his position
until reinforced from the steamer.
The engagement lasted about three
quarters of an hour. Our loss, in
killed and wounded, amounted to 12,
including Capt. L., who was mortally
wounded, nnd died on hoard the steam
er. The enemy lost all except some
twelve men. l)nriog the engagement
we kept retreating, (having understood
that they were expecting a heavy
reinforcement.) Got the steamer un
der way on Sunday evening, about
10 o'clock, having lost, in all, 8 killed
nnd wounded. At 12 M. on the morn
ing of the 20th, discovered a Spanish
man of war some 15 miles to the
southward and eastward, apparently
in chase ol us. Wc kept our steamer
under heavy steam, piling cn lib's, of
rosin anil coal, and at about 8 A. Al.
of 21st. saw a steamer to windward.
Procuring a pilot,ol'the reef of Florida,
wo ran into Key West, where we
arrived at about 1 1 I and landed,
being chased up to that time.
To PitESKRvi: Heef-Stka s. As
the warm season is fast approaching,
when meat cannot be kept for more
than a day or two in a fresh stato, it
will he of no considerable benefit to
many to be iiirormed, that if fresh
meat is rolled u i in Indian corn meal,
it will keep fresh for four or five days.
The steak should be laid down in
pieces fro n one to three pounds and
each covered entirely with the meal.
CtJREFon Corns. Mr. W. Diatls
ley, of Springfield, III., says that sal
eratus bound upon these troublesome
visiters for a few weeks, with occa
sional changes, will elTectually cure
them, lie has given it a fair trial,
nnd would recommend it as an infalli
ble remedy to those afflicted.
Oregon without a Government.
A letter has boon received fro.n
Oregon, stating that there does not
exist there a I'ngh; government offi
cer, in any civil office all have re
fused to serve. Thev pive ns a rea
son, low salaries nnd high prices of
living. I he Uregon people leave
their country for the gold diggings in
California, in the dry season. This
may render prices there so high.

with which apprentice boys arc afreet

says, can be removed almost instantly
by applying leather to their corduroys.

"WHITHER ARE WE TEND
ING?" This is the question put by the
Now York Tribune in publishing the
following item :
'Hon. Alfred K el ley, President of
the Cleveland, Columbus and Cincin
nati Railroad, who went to England
early in April, litis succeeded in pur
chasing 5.(100 tons of rniht, sufficient
to iron that road. The iron will be
sent forward at once, via Quebec.
Xo previous arrangernimt has been
made on equally favorable terms. INI r.
Kelley has also negotiated at a good
price the liondsof his Company to an
amount sulficicnt to pay for the above
iron."
The Tribune goes on to remark:
Wero this an isolated case, it might
pass without comment; but when we
consider that these 5000 tons of I'ritisli
rails are bin a part of the 500.000 re
cently procured, already purchased or
about to be contracted for, we bespeak
for the subject a thoughtful attention.
At this moment, vuilo our chief
staples for export arc bringing goo. I

of all the elements of prosperity, we
are rushing swiftly, madly into debt,

Foreign Silks have come in upon

but our own infant Silk factories arc
fast dying out. Urit'sh Cotton and

up, or beginning to work short time.

Summary Vknueancb. The mur
der a month or two ago, by a white
man and negress, of Mrs. Allen, a lady
living in the vicinity of Liberty, near
the Missouri river, is remembered by
many of our renders. The murder
was perpetrated with a view of ob
taining 8 1,000, the proceeds, il was
believed b,y the negress and her ac
complice, of the recent sa'o of her
farm. Before the perpetration of the
crime, a regular bargain was struck,
that, as soon as the money was ob
tained, they were to bo married nnd
to emigrate to California.
From the officers of the steamer
Juli'i, we ascertain that when it bo
came known that the only proofs
against the guilty parties, were the
declarations of the negro woman her
self, nnd some slight corroborate
eii cunitancos. all hopes of the r con
viction by a regular course of law
having ceased, the citizens of the
locality determined themselves to ad
minister justice. The man and wo
man were secured, and, followed by a
large crowd of people, taken to Lib
erty. A jury, composed of twelve
persons, was appointed, and the case
reviewed from beginning to end when
they were found guilty, and sentenced
to be hung. Another procession was
formed, and the multitude, with the
piisoners in their tniilst, repaired to
ilu woods. Here the first tree ser
ved as n gibbet. Doth wero hung
until they were dead. St. Louis

Important Decision. An impor
tant point in relation to the liability
of stockholders of banking corpora
tions was decided on Monday last bv
.Indue Uuehanan. A bill holder of
the Atch ilalava bank, who is not a
stockholder, sued a stockholder, who
had not paid up his capital stock, for
tho amount of the bills. The stock
holder answered that he was also
holding notes of the bank to the
amount equal to his unpaid subscrip
tion. ami claims to he allowed t com
pensate these bank notes against his
indebtedness. On the principles re
cognized by Chief Justice Sharkey
and Judge Story. Judge l.uch.inan
decided that the Plaintill" was entitled
to recover m this issue. Judgment
was theiefore entered against the
defendant, in the sum of S120, and
costs. Tho suit was brought by T.
P. While against W. 1. Uepp. i.

PROSPERITY OF THE UNITED
STATES.
The London Examiner, discoursing
upon this subject lias tho following; "
"The prosperity is attractive, and
it is the boast of some of the journals,
that while the members of Congress
are daily threatening a dissolution of
tho Union, neighboring Slates and
countries are anxious to be admitted
members of it. Canada talks of an
nexation; California is pressing for
admission; Cuba is ready to join it.
and is only withheld by the power of
Spain, and the modesty and integrity
id' the United States in refusing to ac-
cede to its wishes and to grant some
assistance to accomplish them. Mex
ico has laid a-dd", it is said, its hostile
feelings, and its people are looking
forward. earnestly and anxiously to
incorporation. Central America, too,
is soliciting a closer connection, and
hoping fur the limo to come when it
shall form a part nf tho great republic,
that is to stielch over tho whole con
tinent. Events are advancing rapidly,
though the Congress mav stand still.
Society will n. it w.i't for its leave to

Tho narrative is told by a minister
of tho Weslevan Church:
"I was called on yesterday to at
tend the funeral services of five in
one family who weio poisoned to
death by eating wild parsnips. The
father had dug them on Fiiday, and
the family had kept them till Sabbath,
boiled them with meat, itc, and used
them in souo. Joseph Allen, hi j wife,
one young man IS years old, a boy
12, and a girl 5 years old, were all
poisoned to death by eating of the
dinner. When they began to appre
hend their danger (hey immediately
took portions of emetic, having the
medicine in the house. A daughter
13 years old was just returning from
Sabbath school, and as she entered the
door her mother told her to go to Mr.
Ivy's nnd say they wero all poisoned,
vfce. When Mr. and Mrs. Ivy came
Mr. Allen was dying; sullice it to say
there were four of them dead in less
than four hours; a medical gentleman
was brought in less than an hour, and
every eili'it maif but to no purpose.
The little girl survived till Monday
evening and died. Tho whole five
were interred on Tuesday, near the
village of J .'irv is, township of Wnl
