In reply to the Inquiry of Castellur, in the Coites, yesterday, bauosia, Minister of the Interior, said the Government bad prepared, and intended to Iscuo, a procla mation of amnesty for all political o ileuses, but tbe promulgation was postponed on account of tbe reci'nt conspiracies. Havana, March 4. Tbe Treasury Department advertUcs for proposals irorn slip owners to furnish transportation for three hundred and fifteen political prisoners, who are to be taken to tbe penal station at Fernando Po. There is a proloutd tieling of sorrow bruong tbe Iriends aud relatives of the r rUoners, many of whom belong to the first families of the island. But the measure is excusable, when it Is considered that their transportation will save them from dangers like those by wbich they were threat ened on Sunday last, when the volunteers demanded their death. General Dulce has or dered their removal In consequence of the intense pressure which Is broueht to bear upon him by ultra Spaniards. It is confidently expected, however, that the Home Goverment will authorize tbe release ot a majority of them oon after their arrival at Fernando Po.
