Partial Failure of the Liatikirpedttion ! --
. • 'lnteresting Statement.
• The _Nen' York herald of this morning tells
-the folloning story
The unfortunate possibility of the failure of
the Cuban expedition, which left this , port on
• ,Saturday night, - which was' hinted at yester
day, has indeed been realized, and has over
,balanced the dozen probabilities of success
which are alluded to in the. same article; for
- the enterprise has collapsed and the plan has
failed 'disastrously. ..Among the men who, de-
Larted the expedition was one William C.
eech, of this city, residing on ,Sixth avenue,
who, together with some companioffs,returned
to New Yolk yesterday: Mr. Leech - furnishes
the following: •
STATEMENT.
"On Saturday night last we rendezvoused at
Second avenue and Sixty-second street, about
Seven o'clock P. M. We left the rendezvoits
and embarked at the foot, of. - . Sixty-second
•
street, East River, having on board 115 men,
besides about sixty . native CubanS. We went
• thence - on board the steamer to Jones' Wood,
where, we took on board about twenty-five
more men. We were on the tug boat H. D.
' , Cool, and 'aceonipanied by the steamboat W.
IL Webb. 'We sailed .up and down the river
fora about an hour and , a half. The Webb
• came . to us with Colonel Ryan on board,
in diagnise. We then sailed up as far as Hart's
Island, and • were compelled to come to an
atiehor - inconsequence of a dense fog. At
• :seven o'clock on Sunday morning we weighed
arichor and started up to - the head of Long
-Island Bound, and arrived at Gardiner's
k
- • Islan where the steamer James R. Whiting
was to Meet the expedition. On Sunday night
the steamer John Chase arrived, with 215 of
oarmen, under command of. Colonel Currier
'The Whiting had not arrived, and the officers
-held a consultation. Not finding any steamer,
as we expected to do, we searched for her for
. four hours, but could not find her; We then
came to anchor until seven o'clock .on
Monday morning,. when we made another
search tbr the Whiting until nine o'clock: Our
provisions and water gave out, and the steam
boat Cool started for New 'London,
• Conn., for
provisions, with Colonel Byrne s. Men on
hoard. They reached' 'New London at six
o'clock P. M., and several men-at least thirty
.L-there left the vessel. The steamer Cool got
extra IrroVisious, and started back. I was one
of those who came back to this city, leaving
the vessel, and coming.down by the regular
passenger boat. At, about half-past two o'clock
this (Tuesday) morning passengers on the boat
report that they saw a steamer taking men
On board from two boats; they were &Ain- •
guished only by the lights, and, therefore, it
may not have been any part of the expedition.
The steamer taking them on board was sup
posed to have been the Quaker City."
It will be seenfrom this statement that there
,is a possibility of the embarkation of some of
• the men—two steamer loads—on board some
other" vessel, but reports received late last
night—too late to be given in 'detail—would
rather.tendto confirm the belief that the ex
pedition hasi failedaltogether. It was ruored
.that some of the men had landed at'" New
-Hat en and that some desertions took place
there. •• • •
One thin however, is certain, and that is
.that one of the men most implicitly trusted by ,
the leading Officers of the expedition, and act
ing in a confidential capacity in the convey
ance of messages from one officer to another,
turned traitor to the patriot cause and gave the
information to the Marshal which enabled
him to make the seizure of the steamer Catha
,rine. Whiting. This , man's name is known,
and; unfortunately, he is understood to be au
American by birth, although not evidently by
instinct or ' sympathies, if the popular feeling
. is comprehended on this question of Cuban
independence. II•
At one o'clock this morning . no arrests had
:been made,. according to any information re
ceived by the ofliciiils at Ludlow street jail;
but it is well known that some, of the men had
'arrived in this city.
THE ADMINISTRATION.
The Vice President on Its Success.
Mr. Colfax made a long speech in Provi
dence, on Monday, from which extract the
following just eulogy of • President Grant's
administration:
Although shall not transgress the bounds
and speak in regard to any mere partisan
issue of the day, I rejoice with you that you
'have an administration in power at Washing
ton, and I allude now to your President,which
is faithful to this great country. I pass by
those petty biekerings about the distribution of
patronage, with the single remark that if he
had been inspired he Goidd not have satisfied
the one-tenth of those who desired to
:serve the public in its offices of lidnor or of
profit. That is but a slight ripple upon
the wave; for when you look at the adminis
tration that is given to you, you find already
shining out upon it, in letters of glittering
light, that word which you have longed to see
-in—high—places - at WashingtErn - that - word
Which goesto your heart—and that is, honesty,
which Is the corner-stone upon which the
policy of the adluinistration is securely
grounded. You knoW that whether the Pre
sident has made this man postmaster or that
man collector,,or whether he has distributed
this vast patronage just exactly as you, or I,
or anybody else would haye desired to have it
odistribilted you know that in that heart which
beats in his' bosom there is no thought except
for the country.
'And you know,
,besides, that you can see
written upon the portals of the White House
that other word which you have longed for hr
years past to see,
and that is, economy in the
public service. You know that every expen
diture is being cut down which can be con
sistently in the public service; that in every
possible way the bUrdens upon the public are
being reduced as far as can be consistently
with our public credit in the payment of our
public debt, as the party that governs this
country intends it shall be , paid, to the utter
most dollar. And you know, besides, that
hereafter it shall not be as in recent years of
the past, that the honest taxpayer shall be
comelled to bear his own burdens and the
. burden of dishonest parties.
Ivor is this all. Standing, as we do among
the nations of the world, emerging from our
recenterisis, in whigh we had to fight not only
the rebellion with its power, but to endure the
frown of almost the entire world besides—for
the monarchical nations looked at this republic
as a standing protest against their form of gov
ernment, and would rejoice to see it crumble
to ruin—you know, to-day, that your Presi
dent, in speaking for. you,
and in your behalf,
' to the other nations 'of the world, speaks with
no uncertain voice, but with an emphasis that
demands and receives respect.
A WICKED PLOT IN GEORGIA EX
POSED.
Letter from a Colored Miubter of the
Methodist Episcopal Church.
{From the Atlanta New Era,June 25.]
Below we publish an extract from a letter,
received yesterday from a colored minister in
.Harris countyi 7 - We give - the — extract - hr VS
own crude language, whichis sufficiently
plain to convey the writer's whole inclining,
and it bears the impress of truth upon every
line of it. This letter exposes a scheme—of
which .we have several times be
..fore, bad an inkling which is
: almost too wicked and abhorrent to
obtain credence. Yet we are forced to believe
that-there are men, who are -bad enough to .,
desire even this method of stirring up strife
and insurrection-, for the purpose of producing
a state of affairs in Georgia which will pre
cipitate the enactment of some extreme and
stringent measures, in regard to Georgia, by
the'next session of^ Congress. Thu plot has
been conducted with a greater degree of
secrecy than ever beclouded the purposes of
theinfamous Ku Klux- organization.
The following is the letter referred to :
WityrEsviLLE, Harris county, Ga., June 20,
1869.,—,Dr. Bard : I am a Methodist_preacher.
belong to the mother church. I occasion
ally travel over the fofir inljeihing comities.
The ColOred people are doing better than they
have dorfe since freedom. NVe live in p:eaee_ .
Kith the k Bite 13O1Theard of a darkey
the other day who was travelling-through the
country telling the colored people that a white
man in Atlanta told I4iii to go through the'
country and tell all.thitAhrities that rf they
could get up a fight with the white f01k. , 1 they
could get the *late out of.tla . ..lttli6n, and But-.
look v. - 910d give us all forty aure, itut4 and.
a miilc. They say this fellow told them not to
hit first; if they (lid it would ruin .everything.
But he sai(fwe had lived with white folki long
enough to. know how to make thorn mad, and
when they hitfor us to pitch in.
wantnyeu to-warn all such; folks to -stay
out of Harris county if they know what is
good f(ir them. We are in the Union, and
nwant to stay there: I want my race to hold
office, if the people give it to. them, if they
are qualified for,it. I want to, see them sit on
the jury. And I want peace, too. We have
got that in our section, and I believe General
Grant will see to it that we get our rights. I
believe more than that; I believe that in .less
than two years the whites here will be as will
ing for us to have it as the President is
,him
seff. Why, sir, they are helping us now, with
our churches and with our schools. I don't
know hew the white folks do - in other places,
hut I know there haS been a mighty change

Their Effect in Drying the Surrounded
It is now pretty well known that woods and
forests of leafy trees promote rainfall; and
nourish the flow of springs • mid of rivers; but
it is not so well known that trees of the kind
described by the Germans as Nadellthlz,--
,
needle Wood—produce the contrary effect. What
such is the fact, however, appears from a state
ment which will be read with interest by
owners, "of waste lands. The__ forest _or St.
Ainand, situated in the north ofthe district of
Valenciennes, comprising 1,800 acres Ofsiheious
sand mixed with a small quantity of clay; was
formerly covered - with scrub, and stunted
clumps of oak and birch, and being in places
very damp, was much -haunted by snipe. fit
1843 this unproductive growth was cleared off,
and Scotch firs (Pinus 5y1ve471,9 were planted.
TheSe throve well, and are ,now tall handsome
trees adoring the waste. But during their
,growth it was observed that the damp plaCes
became dry; the snipes abandoned the loCality;
then two or three 'springs and a small stream
that once flowed through the covert dwindled
away, and at last entirely disalipeared. Here
was a surprise! The forestal functionaries Set
to work to diseOver, if possible,the explanation.
They dug trenches six feet deep on the site of
the sptings,und made borings tp greater depths.
The trenches disclosed no appearance of water,
but - showed that 'the roots of the firs, as also
those of the former oaks and birches, had
penetrated six feet or more into the soil. By
the borings 'MO underlying beds of water, one
of considerable volume, were discovered; and
the natural inference.was that they had formerly
stood at a higher level, and thereby maintained
the-springs' but in what way their level had
been lowered by the growth of the fire was a
question which could not then be answered
nor has a satisfactory answer yet been arrived
at. The fact,' however, remains, that, trees.
included among the Pines -tribe exert a de
siccating • influence , on the soil; and in the
discussion occasioned by what has taken place
in the forest of St. Amond, it has been men
tioned that mans,-ofthei./agoons, on the south
west coast of France. have been dried up and
converted into woods by planting the maritime
pine along their margins, and advancing the
planting as the waters receded. Is there any
thing hi these foreign flicts that can be turned
to account here at home? In the recently pub
lished Report of the Commission appointed to
inspect fortifications rin account was given Of
the exceeding difficulty the builders. had in
finding • a solid foundation for the forts at the
narsby mouth of the Medway, and on the
approaches to Chatham. Deep excavations
were dug, but for a long time whatever was
built showed it tendency to sink down out of
sight; and even now that the forts do uprear
their faces 'their stability is not absolute.
• Rightly do the natives of the district name the -
river the "Midway." But if the marshy shores
of Gascony can be dried up by plantations of
pine trees, cannot the same be - done on the
marshy Mores of Kent? Hit can, the benefit
will be manifold. The ground will be made
firm and dry, ague will disappear, the country
within will be sheltered, and the landscape
will look less dreary than at present, to say
nothing of the gain in timber.—Athenteum..,
A STORY was current a, sliort time since, to
the elect that Hograth's house at Chiswick was
to be pulled down. We are glad to say that
such is not the case, mid that it remains in
bands which are at least as careful as those of
the tenants who recently inhabited it. Some
thing ought to be done for the preservation of
this inestimable relic of the great humorist. A
very small sum would doubtless secure it
against destruction. Hogarth's family tomb,
in Chiswick Churchyard, is in good order,
thanks to the care of the painter's munesake of
Aberdeen and London.
Ix-ILothrno, the- house in which Mende's

Michaelisstrasse, at the corner of the Brun

,GEns—A persistent but unsuccessfuLefort Was made
on the night of May 29,1969, to drill iho Bankers C hest
received from you a few months ago.
From facts that have come to our knowledge, it Is evi
dent that the attempt to open it was renewed on Sunday
evening following. Finding all efforts to drill it use
less, the effort was then made to break the lock, The
hammering was heard by parties in_ the neighborhood
for several hours, but. supposing it to arise from the
ratlrood men replacing a defective rail, excited no
alarm .C,The tools, with the exception of the drills, were
left. It is evident that they were not only prepared, but
perfectly familiar with the construction of your Chest.'
That , they failed is, another evidence that your
Rankers' Chests are what you claim for them—Burglar-
Proof. ` Respectfully yours,
