Arrival of Saranac at Havana and Cuban expedition
The Saranac under Capt. Tatnall arrived at Havana on the 26th ult to carry despatches to Gen. Campbell and assist in suppressing armed incursions from the States. The U S schooners Albany and Germantown were in Havana harbor after news of Spanish vessels and Cuban expedition plans. The five men captured at Cardenas were executed at Mazatanas, one boy writing to his mother before his letter was torn. The Saranac and U S steam frigate Saranac and the Albany and Germantown left Havana, while the Diario de Marino notes U S support against pirates and praises President Taylor’s policy.
