Washington, Aug. H.
There is reason, to believe that a'n armed
expedition is about to be fitted out in the tJni
ted States with an ih'tehtiort to invade the. Is
land 6'f fcuba or some of the provinces of Mex
ico ; the best information whjch the, Executive
has been able to obtain, joints to the Island 6'f
Cuba as the object of this expedition, ft is
the duly of this Govenmen to observe the
faith of treaties,, and to prevent any aggression
by our citizens upon the territories of friendly
nations. I have therefore thought ii necessa
ry and proper to issue this proclamation to warn
all citiieris of the United' tateff whtf shall con
nect ihemselves with an enterprise so grossly
in vi61ation of our treaty obligations that ihey
will thereby subject themselves to the .heavy
penalty denounced 'against thera' by our acts
of Congress, and will forfeit their claim to the
pnuecuon oi ineir country, ivo sucn persons
m'ust expect the interference of this Govern -tnent
in any form in their behalf, no matter to
what extremities ihey may be reduced, in con
sequence of their conduct. t
An enterprise to invade, the territories of a
friendly riartiontset on foot ana pfo'secuted. with
in the United States, is in the highest degree
criminal, as tending to endanger the peace and
compromise tire honor of this natio'nV and there
fore I expect all good citizens, as they regard
our national reputation," as' they respect their
own laws; and the laws of nations, as" tfrey
value the blessings of peace and the welfare
of their country, to discourage and prevent, by
all lawful means, any such' enterprise, and I
call upon every officer ot thfa j government, civil
or military, to use all efforts' in5 his power to
arrest for trial and punishment, every such' of
fender against the laws providing1 for the per
formance of our sacred obligations' to friendly
powers.

The Republic says the above Proclamation
was received on Monday at the Department
of State, in a communication from the President
at Harriaburg. Information has been for some
time in possession of the Government to the
effect that bodies of men were in the course of
being levied and drilled in New Orleans, N.
York, and oiher cities of the Union ; that mon
ey to a considerable amount has been contrib
uted : that arms have been provided and ar-
rangements made on a large scale, with a
viow to' some military expedition. Their move
ments have beenr conducted with great secrecy,
and the object' of the enterprise has been con
cealed even' from the-indivjdu.als who have em
barked in it. Sufficient evidence, however,
ha's been' obtained, to satisfy the President that
th'e design of the expedition is an invasion of
Cuba, and that the intervention of the Execu
tive Was necessary to preserve our neutral ob
ligations, and to keep unsullied the' honor of
tire AJmericah people.
