• 3niscipoted in Cuba.
° NEW ORLEASS. Nov. 21.—The steamer
Black Warrior, from Havana, with dates to
the 16th, has arrived."
The Delta announces, having received in
formation from an authentic source, that the
inhabitants of Cuba are in the wildest state of
enthusiasm, and contemplate_ an important.
rising M a few days. The same paper also
pu blishes a bold and energetic proclamation
issued from the Cuba Club of Terrorists.
The other papers of this city, however, hare
no infottnation itt regard to the -matter, and
discredit the report.
The governor•ef Ti - indad is reported to be a
prisoner at Havana.
TUE ESCAPE FROM THE SISTERHOOD AT Em-
HITSBURG. —The Frederick Citizen has the fol
lowing version of this atfair, the first account
`of which appeared in the Examiner:
Miss euntiley is from Norfolk,' Va., and a
convent° the Catholic faith. She went to the
Sisterhood about two years ado on a visit and
- to make a religious r. teat. Site rhen petition
ed to be received, but on bein r adv N
watt an consider the winter maturely. (it be
ing a rule of the 50c;e.7.7 in admit none unless
there ig strong dsburance of marked vocation,)
Pie wenthome. A year after she renewed_
. 0 ' rApplicanon, and was admitted, on trial.=
in this capacity, as a mere probationer or no
vice, and not a sister, Hiss 13. resided at the
:Sisterhood for the last ten months or therea
bouts, and was engaged in teaching,lze, w:-
tit morning, the 9:11 instant, a short
time before the morning bell, when she got out
of the window of her chamber and departed. It
is presumed that - she contemplated taking, the
stage for Frederick, which passes. only a few
hundred yards from the institution, but being
disarointed i i meeting it, she proceeded on ,
foot to Creagerstown, a distance of - . 67 or 7
miles. We understand that
,she had always
expressed hersel fas perectly happy, and even
repeated this sentiment the very day before
she left.
Is A-FREE NEGRO A CITIZEN OF TUE UNITED
STATES ?—A highly, important decision was
made on Thursday last in the U. S. Circuit
Court for this State, by iiisilonor'Judge Drum
mond, in the case of Joseph Mitchell, free negro,
plaintiff, vs. Charles IL Lamar, defendant.
The 'plea. filed by the defendant alleged the
plaintiff to he a free negro. and. not a. citizen of
'
the MteL ,tates, entitled to maintain a• sui,
before the Ti. S. Circuit 'Court.--The plea was
sustairred by the court. We also learn that
Judge McClean coincided in the opinion deliv
ered by Judge Drunnuond.—Chicagn Tithes.
fr7The Bedford Grkzele sa}•s :—"Judge
Daugherty. who received all the Know-Nothing
Votes in this Legislative District. denies most
emphatically, in a later to Mr. Robinson. of
Fulton, that he ever consented to the use of his
name in this connection. and he will be found
arrayed against* thew on every measure tend
ing to abridge the right of conscience, or affect
the rights guarantied to our adopted citizens
under the Constitution of Country, as it at
present exists."
3:7There are said to be about three thous
and Negroes entitled to vote in New York city
under the provision of the State Constitution
which requires a colored man to have been
three years a citizen and possessed of freehold
estate of the value of 8250 over and ab'Ove all
debts and ineumbrances.charged thereon, and'
upon 'which a tax shall have been paid.—Sat
urday Express.
This is true. And it is also a fact .that the
Know-Nothings (to whom our neighbor is said
to belong) would exclude a whiie man, who
happens to have been born out of the country,
from voting'until he has been TWENTY-ONE
years a citizen! What a beautiful commen
tary on . Know-Nothingism this is.! A BLACK
ruan may vote upon a three
. year's residence,
but a WHITE man must serve an apprentice
ship
seven /lines as long to entitle - him to the
right of suffrage Lane. lnielligeneer.
CLERGYMEN IN CONGaNss.—There will be a
good sprinkling of clergymen in the thirty
fourth Congress. James Meacham, from the
first District of Vermont, is a clergyman, and
sa is- Alvan-Salin, from the Third - District.
Ebenezer Knowlton, from the Third District
of Maine, is a Free Will Paptist preacher.
John J. Pearce, elected in the Fifteenth Dis
trict of Pennsylvania ; Robt. B. Hall, in the
Fifth District of Massachusetts, and Mark
Trafton, in the Eleventh, are ministers of the
Go Tel.
('Judge Edmonds is out with a letter, in,
which he describes his interview with the spirits
of those who were lost on the Arctic. The
Judge would obtain more credence if he had
made his revelations earlier—before the calam;

Holloway's Pills.—An adinirablo Remedy
for the Cure - of Bile, Indigestion, and Liver
Complaints.---1n American lady, the widow
of an officer, in the H. 1.0. Service, had been
residing many years in Calcutta, where her
liver and stomach had become so deranged,
that she could with difficulty, digest any kind
of food. She suffered almost unceasingly
from-sick headaehe. nervousness, and lowness
of spirits, the results of a debilitated constitu
tion. The medical aid she had there was of no
avail, and her friends advised her to take up
her residence at her sister's, in Savannah,
Georgia; the latter lady persuaded her to have
recourse to Holloway's Pills, which to about
six weeks, restored her to sound and perfect
health, to the astonishment of her benevolent
sister who had given up all hope of her re

tions were unanimously adopted :
Although frequently called to mourn the decease of valued
friends and worthy members of our brotherhood, and to give

of late, have carried bitter mOurning and •desolation into so
many - social-circles- 7 afar - from - home,atvi - with - nomrlt
strangers to minister to their wants ur soothe their suffer
ings, callifor our deepest sympathy. The personal i irtues
of our deceased brother—his manly diameter and christian
deportment, aside from, his active fellowship's all our bro

In bearing cheerful testimony to those virtues, therefr,
be it unanimously

this afflicting dispensation, which has thu's so suddenly remo
ved from time to eternity, our late brother, with a loved
and loving wife, children and mother, regarding it as the
will of Ilim elm "doeth all things well," we receive it as a
warning, bidding us all to remember how true it is, that ••in
the midst of life we are in death."
Resolved, That we toiler to the surviving friends of the
deceased Brother our deepe.t sympathy, ani hereby direct
the Secretary to convey to them this assurance, with a copy
of these resolutions. -
Resolved, That the Ilall be clothed in mourning for ninety .

for the space of thirty days.

tives and friends.
