We invite the particular attention of odr read ers to the very able letter of James R Snowden, Esq., in relation to our State debt, which; will be found in this*day's pspeay It is a letter that will command great attention throughout th ing to deceive the People, in a point where their interests are deeply at stake, and on a subject upon which their opponents cannot so readily 7 .obtain the means of disproving their statements. But we rely upon the power and influence of truth, feeling convinced that all which is correot eventually established; while the false and'tiie corrupt will be hnrled down to their na tive gloom and darkness. THE NEWS FBOB CUBA. We give, in another column, some of the most interesting details that have been reoeived from Cabs; and they are certainly calculated, when taken in connection with news previously re ceived, to awaken intense interest in the minds of the American People. The oold-blooded butchery of so many men, even without the show of a trial, is exciting our countrymen, at - every point, to an extent/ the end of which may not be readily seen, but can be easily imagined. Our people are at beat excitable; but when such occurrences ub this, are brought to their, notice, they are not likely to overcome the feelihgs u of horror engendered by them, until full retribu tion has been had for the injury indicted: . We find, from our exchanges, that meetings have been called in all our principal cities, to take into consideratioaJhe deep disgrace that has been inflicted upon the name ,of Civilization by the horrid acta of the Cub'an Spanish author ities; and from the mildest .tones of those meet ings there is nothing but encouragement offered' to those who may engage in the revolutionary cause; and, such being the almost universal sentiment of the People* we think it may not be. most advisable for our government officers to interfere with the People in a .very etrenuons manner.. Whether it is right or not to engage in such a struggle as that going on in Cuba, it is not in the nature of our people to be thwarted In their designs, without manifesting opposition, or even open resistance; and, therefore, as we all profess to regard liberty, it might seem in no way improper to look as complacently possi ble upon all mo vements whatover, made among the People, arid- designed to ameliorate 'the Con dition of any of our race, who are suffering mad. oppressed. . „ As one of the results of this Spanish massa cre we find that acts of retaliation have been practiced -in-New Orleans upon: probably., the whole SpantsK'pbphiation; and, however wrong such acts of retaliation may be, they clearly in-' dlcato the disposition and determinationyof the. - of the People; and are apt to prove an in Si*!?*/, the acts which are to follow Upon am6re : Uinay besaUbffsmneCTTillerflijuilieiiniereat wm .hem after a fight of four hours.

Rimer 1 ® admin istration. The act of the 25th of March,lB&, which im posed a State tax of one; mill on the dollar open the valuation of certain property, had been beneficiil, not only as a source of revenue, but aa a cheek to extrava gant appropriations. A legislature is rot So likely to make large appropriations when the people are; taxed torpay the interest, as when the same is paid by new loaos. The election of Mr. Rimer in 1835 was in Conse quence of'ihe division of the democratic party, which extending.also to the legislative offices, a large majority of his friends were elee;ed to the House of Representa tives. By fraud and corruption a majority in the Sen ate was also obtained—whereupon the act of the lSih of February, 1838, was passed,entitled u An act to!repeal the State tax on real and personal property, and to con tinue andexiendthe improvements of the State by rail roads and conals,aad to cnartef a State Bank, to be called the Uuhed States Bank.” This act may be justly regarded as the true cause of all our .subsequent finan cial difficulties. The people were told that no taxation was necessary—that the U. S. Bank would make canals and railroads wherever they were wanted, famish the rteans to educate the children of the Commonweahh, and supply all deficiencies in the revenue 1 Not satisfied ; withhaving destroyed the true coorces of revenuej ftlr. ffitner, in his last annual message dated ttfih. December/1833, reemed even to dnrire to throw difficulties in the way of a return to just measures Speaking of. the changes which had occurred since the commencement of ,h)s administration; ho says—“ Ttie State tax which wa* (hen in existence, withoutihnpe of lemunationyhns ceased to be collected, and uoihiog but the utmost profusion can make it again necessary. l. Am! jetwe find in »he *ams message these portentous words-?-* 1 Thu* has it come to pass that notwithstanding a succession of circumstances the most fortunate, and o r receipts the most ample and most unexpected, the Cooimonwealih i-*kft without means to continue her ow« works and redeem her own tikii. The contractors ^ her citizens—and ibe public generally, nre, l fear, aboutto possess good causes of complaint that she has upon undertaking* ihat she cannot accomplish; or as the only altrrnfttive, the means to complete and render produciive the RnoJ-cts of private speculation, wlacb mxve nlreHdy proved «o burdensome tothe Treat D,, y» fco insatiaule in their dt mauds, must continue mbe granted without regard to consequences.” Won derfdl words income from a governor who commenced the OeUysburgh Railroad to benefit the owners of tar nacet J nhd the Wiseomsen feeder to eurieh coil apecu lators! Strange tnconeisteney to say there must be no taxuuon now or hereafter, when in the aamemeisise lie deciarei* that * the Commonwealth is left without means to redeem her own faith!!” tbe thrte year* of Mr. Rimer’* admTnlMnition; ihere was >ereceived f he increased the of the Commonwealth to the amount of «ei34O,Q:iQ. The amount in which the State was indebt ed, when he left the ciecaiive chair,was 184.14'GG3 go Gov. Ponct; fn his first mei»^gc,>ay»— u Tbia afetrretraie Slate debt (with the oxceplon of 8180,000 appropriated at the la*; session of the Legt*)eiare to the sarrey of a railway from Hanitborg to Pinaburgh— to siocsm ihe Frankun railroad, and io stock in the Penna. and Ohio can< was contracted jprfor to: the 15:h January, 1839 ay It is true that the sum of authorised to he borrowed since that pe rtodi bot the whole of this large amoant {with the above exception,) waa appropriated to she payment of debts and liabilities doe and fa!ling due in the year 1839, for the payment of which no provision t.ad been made when le* tered upon the doiirt of my office.” . Thus I think I have shown that the measures adopted dariog Mr Rimer's administration, were in the highest a-gree injurious to the public credit; and that the alle gation which is made by the whig press and whig ora tors. tbet the indebtedness of the Commonwealth was not increased during hisoffieial tenure,is umrne; though 1 adult the fact that no prrmangm loan wasmsdedurioir that period. 6 But 1 pa«s on to notice the claim set up by Mr. John ston and his friends, that he has redeemed and re-estab uahed the credit o! the Commonwealth! And In order to see exactly-what bn doe* claim. I will insert here an extract trom. hisspefech, delivered in the City of AHe the SOih ins ~ as reported in a whig paper : ..The of internal improvement left a debt hanging over us of about 840,000,000. When Gov. RH ner closed hie adminisiraiion, the public debt was rising When I came into office it had accumula trd to forty millions and a half, though the instrumental- Jl y of our opponents white in power, who had misap plied the public funds. The time was approaching when :you would bejforcedtorepadiatayourpaolic tiebuor !*ar a borden which would bo intolerable, unless some reme dy vra« applied. The debt was increasing, and would have swelled to such an amount as would have render ed its liquidation an utterly hopeless task. I looked up on lias important it at something should be devised to relieve ihe people from the increasing burdee which not ottiy. affected the wealthier class, but another class of the coramuDiiy—citizens who bad children to educate, and who were interested in a systertrof public schools More than half a million of the public debt has been paid sihee he who now addresses you has been in pub lic office.” . r Let us see bow the facta will warrant these bold and reckless declarations. From the commencement of our improvement system up to August, 1842, it was the practice to equalize the receipts with the expendimres by meant of a Loan. But oar financial difficulties were soch that, although a Loan was authorized, to pay the interoa in August, 1842, there were no b dders for the loan, and the interest in consequence was not paid. The Legislature of 1843 met. but nothing was accompli taxation autho rized, or any sources of revenue created I know not what difficulties that Legislature had to encounter, not bejHg a member during that session. The Legislature , 844 r£ c,t nnocr-urcamstances of depression and eluom The eyes of the world were upon us—for where bad not traveled the s ory of our saddUhonor! Hon William Bigler was Speaktr of the Senate—l was speaker of the House ot Representatives. In conjunc tion with a few other democratic members, we determ ined that nothing should be left undone, that was hono rable and proper, in order to effect the passage of a law which should provide sufficient revenue to meet oil the cn ff°Sr«oents, and gradually liquidate the public One would have supposed that all would have concur red in the propriety of the passage of a lax law, as the only properremedy. Butnotso Manymembersfear edlqsing their popularity by voting for mxa ion: and a Whig member proposed to relieve the State by selling {or. oS others declared,) giving away the public works and appiymgto Congress for a share of the proceeds of ihopoulic landsf A few Democrats united with the Whigmenibersin attaching the proposition to sell tht publ'c work* to the tax bill. Anamendment being ad opted to submitihai question to n vote of the people, a majority of theden ocrmic mcrabe>s determined to sup port the MU. and on ihe 18 h o' 1 April ii passed the Haase In the Senate, bo'h divisions of the bill were opposed nt first by ;a majority. 'lhe bill was at length, niter heme materially altered,passed by that body O wing to the differences between the two Houses, the htll was referred to a commifee of Conference.

Thi? morning— Forty Americans, Ono'ltalian, B'our lrisb, One Philippine Islander, One Scotch, Two Havaneros, and .; Two Germans, or Hungarians, were shot ut II o’clock—after which the troops wero ordered to .retire; and some , hundreds of the veryvllestTahble and negroes,' hired for the purpose, commenced stripping the dead bodies, mutilating their limbs, tearing out their eyes, cutting off their noses and fingers, and some of the poor fellows (privates) these . wretches brought to the city on stick?, and paraded them under the very walls of the palace. Oh, the very remembrance of the sight is frightful. I never saw men—and could scarcely have supposed itppsBible-i-conduot themselves at such an awfuL momentwithjthe fortitude these ; men displayed under such trying circumstances.— They, were shot six at d time, i. e. twelve >wero brought to the place of execution, six made -to kneel down and reoeive the fire of the soldiers, after whidh the remaining six were made to walk round their dead comrades, and kneel, opposite to them, when they also were shot. After be ing stripped, and their bodies mutilated in tho barbarous manner I have: described, they were shoved, six or seven together, bound as they were, into hearses, which wero used last year for cholera cases. No coffins wero allowed them; and I think the manner they were put into the hearses was equally as disgusting as their other acta; the heads of pome were almost dragging Cn the ground, and it had more tho appearance of a slaughter-cart on its way to market from the slaughter-house, than that of a hearse con veying the dead botUes of human beings. A finer looking set Of young men I never saw; they made .hot a single complaint, not a mur mur, against their sentence, and decency should have been shown to their dead bodies,' in admi ration. for the -.heroism they, displayed when brought out for oxeention. Not a muscle was seen to move, and they proved to the miserable rabble congregated to witness the horrid specta cle, that, it being the fortune of war that they fell into the power of this government, they were not afraid to die. It would have been a great consolation to these poor fellows, os they re peatedly asked, to see their Consul, and, through him, to have sent, their last adieus, and suoh little mementos as they had to their beloved re lations in the States. One handsome young fel low.desired that his watch should be sent to his sweetheart.

Intelligence reached Havana, last week, ibut four hundred picked men had been sent out into tho mountains of Coscora, by Gen. Lemory, who was made to beliovo that a very small ' number of the insurgents remained, and could be easily captured. The result was, that the troops were led into ambush, when a large force of the pa triots, under Dr. Augustin Agnera y Aguero, rushed upon them and killod some fifty on tho spot. The rest of tho Spaniards retreated to Prinoipe, as well as they could, iu the greatest disorder. Scarcely had.the government recovered from this shook, when their attention was called to tho still moro'serious fact, that a large number of sympathizers, under Gen. Lopez, had effected ft landing at Plnyitas, o few miles to the west ward of Bahia Honda, which took place at 4 A. M., on tho I4th inst. Lopez is decidedly a bravo man—bravo almost to rashness. It is positively believed here, and I beliove it to be trde, that tho steamer signalled from the More Castle, on the evening of the 12th, was the same one which conveyed Gen. Lopez and his friends to these shores. Such a doring act of audacity, bearding ns it were tho lion in his den, is most extraordi nary. It oppoars that, close into the entrance of this harbor, Lopez fell in with a schooner, from which he took ont the captain and mate, to servo him as pilots on the coast of Bahia Honda, the navigation of which is very intricate. They ar rived off Bahia Honda about 9 P. M , when they immediately commenced making signals to the shore by means of rockets, .Vc., which probably had been previously agreed upon between tho liberators and those on shore. Gen. Lopez did not effect a landing with his men until 4 A. M.; but the debarkation was done in so masterly a stylo that before sunrise be had not only landed his men, with all their munitions of war, but was on his march to Las Posas, a town a few miles distant from the ooast, where he immediately commenced intrenching himself. In tho meanwhile, hero, in Havana reigned the greatest excitement. The Pizarro, laden with troops, under the command of Gen. Enna, (who is next in command to the Captain General,) and with him the Admiral, left about 8 A. M., for Bahia Honda; ono tbonsand men having previously been sent by the railway cars. . It must be: borne in mind that suoh was the state of confusion and alarm into which the .Government were thrown, that he had no dis tinct idea as to whether Bahia Honda or Mnriel were the points .to which the liberators had come. However, the following morning, we are informed that Gen. Enna had come up with the pirates, as they are termed bylthe Government, and had fought with them at Los Posas; in which he re grets the loss of some of his men and others wounded. , In this' engagement the Spaniards were com manded by Gen. Enna in person, who had his horee shot from under him; Colonel Badal and seven offieers-iand about Boventy-eight men wore killed. . So unerring and deadly was the fire of the brave liberators that Gen. Enna was three times repulsed with loss. At this moment the Lieut. Governor of Mnriel; Gol. Gurrea; came up, with about two hundred men more, when the Colonel received a shot through his leg, and his men such a. cheek, that Gen. Enna (as ho states in his offi cial communication to the Captain General, dated half ,past three o’clock on the 14th,) saw the use lessness of attempting anything further against the pirates without more artillery, as it would be only exposing his men to certain death, with out any result; consequently he demanded fur therreinforcements. Accordingly, two steamers, the Habanero and the. Almendares, left that day With more troops, to the number of fourteen hundred; so that, acoording to their own account, with those who have been concentratin g from the other dißtriots, they have got upwards of 8000 men, including cavalry; and up to this moment they have only made three captives, who, as they say in the official bulletin, they instantly put to death. Two of these persons were sailors be longing to the steamer: Pampero, who, after landing Lopez, had gone into a tavern and got drunk; the other poor fellow was found in a hut, unable to move, from a fracture he received when landing. ' , : On the 16th, it was known that thp liberators, who have been joined in large numbers by .the people of the country, made a, move! in the di rection of Diego de Nunez and Cabanas, with the intention of possessing themselves of the fort at the latter place, when, unfortunately, some forty or fifty of them, who had, in the most daring manner, endeavored to get there by sea in four with the intention of taking the Span iards in: the fort 'by surprise, were themselves, after a.most desperate resistance, captured by the Spanish Admiral, who, with his steamer and an immense number of men, succeeded in taking - t » r^- r ; c L J . + r > was to tak6 placer..

Night, Midnight Anxiety of the Government about the Troops— -Vo Mews from General Lopez—The Latest Ac ■ counts. ■ '■ • The greatest anxiety is .felt, here by the Gov ernment, as. no news.has been received from Gen eral Enna of later datethanthe night before last The steamer lon, one of the ferry boats has been sentdown to see what the matter: is; andione honr 'an engine waB : ? sent express to!

Nothing had been heard from the' troops thatleffc Pinar del Bio totattaok Lopez; and it is ; feared that they have gone over to him. His forces are momen tarily increasing, while the foot of nothing being received here by land leads to the supposition that the country has all turned in ; hfs f&yrir.— Should Lopez soon receive 'reinforcements, with arms to distribute to the crowds that go in to him, Gen. Erma must retreat by sea. Ineither case Lopez’s march to Havana will be .itoihter rnpted.. You can imagine 'the hopes:and fears, that agitate the city. • ; - The Tribune soys \ We hove just received from our correspondent in Havana a copy ofan Extra of Tht Liario dtla Marino, of the 16th inst. The laeufc. Governor of Mariel, near Cubanos sends a . despatch’con cerning the landing of Lopez, tho particulars of which ho ascertained from two sailors, who were witnesses of the scene. We translate the fol lowing extracts; “ The expedition in the opinion of the-witnes see, consisted of a thousand men. They only disembarked two barrels of powder, four: cwt. of balls and two boxes of muskefr. Each person was armed with a pair of six barrelled pistols, a sword and musket, all in bad condition.— They only landed provisions for one day, the greater part of whioh was biscuit; and two bar- Tels of moat. The company consisted of fifty natives of Cuba, and the remainder from Ameri ca and other countries* On landing, Gen. Lopez sent a letter to the inhabitants of Pozes, threat ening them with extermination if they did not aid him.” General Bnstellos, of the steamer Hibanero, also mokes a report concerning- tha capture of the four boats, but it contains no -new particu larsofinterest He repeats the story of Gen, Lopez’s party being very much distracted and depressed, and states that they are attempting to seek safety in flight. In relation to the exe cution of the prisoners, The Liana de la Marina says:. ■* “At 11 o’clock this mornings the 62 armed pirates captured in Cay Levisa andits neighbor hood, were shot on the southern side of the Cos-; tie of Antares. After the. punishment to which they would be condemned, if theyhad- dared to approach these shores, had been announced in the country from which they came, as in th?« is land the terrible execution of the law was a re sult which could surprise no one. May the bloodshed fall.as ; an additional reproach on those infamous persons who have drawn these unhappy criminals to their perdition. “On sea and on land, the concourse attracted together by the execution, was immense; not because our population cherishes sanguinary in . stincts, nor from an impulse foreign to a people as honorable, peaceful and laborious' as ours; no, but because the insult offered to their no blest sentiments, the attack, directed against their loyalty, the deprecation of our -faith and our nationality, filled them with the indignation which converts, for the moment, at least, the most gentle into the most fierce and energetic characters.” Tho New York Sin publishes the follow ing:— Prom various passengers by the Cherokee, we learn the following reports:—Ono report in Ha vaua was that Gen. Lopez's forces had swelled to eleven hundred men, and that ho had fought a battle with the Spanish forces, in which nearly eiqet HtmnßßD of tho latter were killed and wounded! Another report reduces the number to from four to six hundred. Seventy-eight wounded had been brought in. This, and the fact that not a single prisoner of the patriot forces had been taken, except those taken in the boats, conclusively prove a viotory for Gen. Lopez. Several passengers confirm thestatementmade above, that Gen. Lopez had, by a brilliant ma noeuvre, cut off communication between Sa vona and the troops, sent against him. The. probabilities ore that he has out off the ; trooos too. r Mantua, the most important town in the De-. partment, is reported to be in the possession or the Revolutionists. . It gives the following explanation of the ad vantages of the place at whioh Gen. Lopez has made his landing: ' _ Fort Cabanas is on the Western coast northern side of the Island,- and only about forty miles distant from Havana. It has a population of about 8000, and possesses no defences except a small fort The Cubans assure ns that the Com mandante is one of Lopez 1 friends. At any rate, the fort will fall easily into the hands of the emi grants. Port Cabanas communicates with the fine rich and jjopuloua'jurisdiction of the Vnelto Abpjo. , In this jurisdiction the population amounts to 47,000, of whioh 26,000 aro whites, 6,500 free colored, and the remainder slaves! It! is the tobacco-growing distriot, and there aro no large plantations like as in the Eastern Department— The land is divided np into farms of two and three acres each which the Cubans culti vate chiefly by their own labor. The Cubans in this oity state to us that in no part of tho Island can Gen. Lopez recruit his forces better, while provisions and horses, eon be obtained in abund ance. •• With Gonzale’s reinforcement of five hundred men, the Patriots could sweep the whole western department up to the very walls of Havana. All the troops that could well bp spared from Hava na have already been drafted to the eastern par t of the Island. There is no strong force station ed in any part of the Vuelto Abojo. The troops to oppose Lopez must therefore bo drawn from Havana; and as there is only about an aggregate of 5000 troops in andaround Havana, probably not over 1000 conld be speedily marched against him. With this force he-Would manage! to make short work, oven if they all should stand fast to their oolors, whioh wo are told is doubtful. Gen. Lopez is brave and daring, and the men be commands are said to be selected from among: 1500. Of their oupoess we cannot speculate at present. In,thO,meantime, .we have prepared a table, wbich shows the total Spanish force on the island, and the manner in which it is distri buted. It wiU .be seep that it is not so immense as has been represented. We think the table, is nearly accurate.
