I.ate and Important from Havana. Movements of U. S. Vessels of War Five of the -Expeditionists Shot-One an American Boy. Charleston, June 6 P4 M. The Scfctf Mer chant, Capt. Lessier, arrived here this aftenioon with dates from Havana to the 30th ult. The U. S. steam frigate Saranac, arrived at Ha vana on the 26th ult., and carried despatches to the Captain General and General Campbell,- Con sul at Havana. It was stated in Havana, that the Saranac vas put under the orders of ihe Gorernor of Cuba, to assist in suppressing any armed expe dition from the United States. The U. S. ships Albany and Germantown, lying at Havana, received information that Spanish ves sels of war wore expected with part of the Cuba expedition -on board. The American vessels in tercepted these vessels a few hours from Moro Castle, and after demanding the release of the prisoners from the Spaniards, and they refusing, were enforcing their release when ile Saranac came up. After an interview between Lieut. Tat nail and Commander Randolph, the Spaniards were allowed to take their prisoners into Havana, and place them in confinement on board of a Spanish 74. Five persons, part of the force of Gen. Lopez, who were taken at Cardenas, were afterwards shot at.Matanzas. Four of them were Scotch and Irish and one an American a boy, who stated that he joined the expedition under the impression of go ing to California. He asked permission to write a letter to Gen. Lopez, giving information of his fate which was granted. After finishing the let ter, it was torn up by the soldiers. A spectator picked up the pieces and pasted them together, with the intention of forwarding them to the pa rents of the boy. The Merchant left at Havana, the Saranac, A1-. bany, and Germantown. r - i ., Ileitis from the Gold Mines. A letter from the Murderer's Bar, on the Middle Fork, says that Gold is more plentiful there than ever. "A man named Carrick dug some twenty pounds in two weeks, and his luck continued, $3 to $5 per pan-full o.f soil was the average. A lump of gold weighing 127 ounces was pro cured at the Auburn dry diggings by a Mr. Nick erson. At Sonora diggings many holes had yield ed upwards of 10 pounds, and from one hole 37 pounds were taken by one man in three days. A beautiful 8 ounce lump of pure gold not a particle of rock with it was laken from Mormon Gulch on the American Fork. Two men at the same digging, named Hyers and Brown, took 29 ounces, besides a 17 ounce -lump in one day. On Wea ver's Creek, an Indian1 picked out a two pound lump. A man from New Hampshire, at the same diggings, found a fiat oval 16 ounce lump, all pure. A Mr. Holland, at Deer Creek diggings, was av eraging 8 ounces a day at a lucky hole he found. At Mariposa diggings eight lumps, of.ono to 7 pounds, were found ; and from one hole, 8 by ltt leet square, over S10.000 was taken, 20,000 dol lars were taken from a similar hole at the Tre tnont digging on the Mariposa One gambling establishment in San Francisco cleared 150.000 in thirteen months. We glean all these California incidents from a file of late San Francisco papers. Novel aud Ingenious Clock. Mr. John Geldard, of Paw tucket, B. I. has in vented a piece of mechanism, capable of being at tached to any common clock", by which it is set in motion at any required time. The machinery is made to operate upon three automatic figures, rep resenting negroes, who perform their respective duties with a tact and promptness at once amus ing and interesting. As soon as the appointed time, as indicated by the clock, arrives, the first of three "gentlemen ob color" rings a bell with so much force and for so long a time, as to awaken the family from the soundest sleep indeed he who should sleep through the alarm thus made, would not be very likely to be aroused by a res pectable peal of thunder. Whilst datkie No. 1, (who is know by the soubriquet of Sambo,) tugs at the bell with a hearty will, Jumbo lights a lamp from a match, which he ignites by drawing across a piece of sand-paper. No sooner is the lamp lighted than Pete is at work. This gentleman most dexterously ignites a torch at the lamp, and communicates the flame thereof to the fuel pre pared over night, in the stove. So complete are all the varied arrangements, and so perfect is the mecfaamism of th wlrole; that no possible risk of fire is at any time present ; indeed, the tact dis played by the " little, darkies'" would do no dis credit to help possessed of human intelligence. It will hence be seen that whilst its inventor is dressing, his automatic aids light a lamp and kin ile a fire in his stove services of no small value on a cold winters morning. Nor Is this all ; Mr. G. and his family may leave home in the morn ing, and upon returning at night find his stove warm, his kettle boiling and a lamp lighted, and all these services parformed without interference or bickering on the part of those to whom they are entrusted, nor do they e,ver fail in their respective duties, for they are always found where human help is employed. Mr. Geldard is a self-inade mechanic, and gives evidence of a clear constructive brain. He is at present the Overseer ofihe Weaving Department in4'Walcott & .Co.?s Mill,-, Pawtucket, Mass , ' jh- Scientific American ;a.
