Washington, January 11, 1821. Approved, JAMES MONROE. From the Delaware Watchman. Havana, Dec. 8, 1820. "We have had, a few days past, a mutiny amongst the troops garrisoned here, that has filled, for three days, the city with consternation. Two of the regiments (the Tarragona and the Fijo) whose term had expired, called aloud for their leave to go home, and refused to perform duty ; liowcver, owing to the exertion of the officers, they were made to march. Next day, Monday, the 27th ultimo, being the turn of Tarragona to relieve the guard, a scene similar to that of the preceding day was anticipated, and from motives of curiosity a vast concourse of people were brought to the parade ground ; the same refusal was made on the part of the soldiers, and the same exertion on that of the officers, but with more obstinacy on the other side; it even was carried so far as for one of the privates to present and wound his captain with his bayonet. A general rout here took place amongst the citizens; the gates were shut; the general beat cries of il the soldiers are murdering the citizens," ran through every street; doors, windows, and every tiling was barricaded in an instant: the country people in the market place forsook their benches and crowded to the only city gate that had been left open some honest folks, however, possesed of more sang froid, went round and saved all the in jnpy that the country people (as is their custom) had stowed under their states ; but, as I suppose, owing to the general panic, forgot ever to return it. One of the poor Monteros who was coming to town with lour horse loads of charcole cut off the three horses he had in tow, and rode off as fast as the swiftness of his quadruped, would allow ; a citizen who took notice of it, mounted the forsaken animals and rode home with the prize. The panic caught those out side the gates; all run "what is the matter, " cried I, to one of the racers ; " who the devil knows, " said he, and away he went. In the mean time the guilty soldier had been arrested, and the timely energy of the officers restored every thing to a momentary calm. Rut what was the Governor doing all this time ? he was a silent spectator, and after every thing was ended, and troops filed off before him he huzzaM them. " Viva viva," as if they had done the finest thing imaginable. Next day, the soldiers, rather tumultuously insisted that the culprit should be pardoned ; and the Govenor promised that his life should be spared. There is certainly every encouragement to sedition ; a fine example for the other two regiments; what will they do ? w hat ? they say that unless the soldier who drew his bayonet against his officer be.shot, they will not fc -ve: the officers expostulated, the soldiers give up the point ; and next day, being duty, they refuse to surrender the posts to any but the militia; they are again brought to order; but how all this will end, none can tell; we can only say, that of all the weak Governors which this world overproduced he is the weakest. Cienfurgos, the late governor, is a very different man: Jt;ur3 a gjiarrt house

where one of the revolted regi men's t were stationed, they turned out to pay hm the customary honors. 'Go in," said he, " I will not receive honors from such rascals as you are.' Two regiments have now made a treaty offensive, against the other two, and the whole has been published in the newspapers. There is no doubt but that the independent party is at the head of this; their object being to get rid of the garrison, to accomplish their designs. Charles R.
