HAVANA, May 4.—The sensation of the.
moment is the arrival here of General DO
_ • .
- Mingo Golconda, a prisoner to the Spaniards.
My recent letters leare inadnyou_at quainted
with his failure to obtain a command from the
Cubans'; his consequent disgust and resolve to
leave the island, charged with a commission
to the -Mexican government;' the interception
of the,onen
.boat_he was leaving .in by One,
of the telemeter ;g unboats; his escape
to Guajaha Hey• 'or Island, and the sub
se'quent. capture of the boat, with impor
tant papers. The Spaniards at once blockaded
the key or island with three gunboats and the
mar steamer Isabel la-Catolica, and landed
parties that scot re,d it in all directions.
General Golconda was found by two Sailors of
the Isabel, separated from his companions,
and, although armed, surrendered to them
without resistance. - His advanced age -and
personal infirmities are what prevented him
from keeping up with hiS companions in their
flight - from: the --- Spaniards ; and --- whenclis
coveredebe appeared to be in a State of physical
prostration. His capture occurred on
the 2d.. and as , on the lid none of
his companions—Said to have been an
American . major, __an -.English - Canadian,-
a Cuban of the name of Aguero, and four.
e•ailort---bad been found, they have most pro
bably escaped-to the.mainland, -General Goi-.
eouria was brintett_li yreis_captors-to-Nuevitas
a d Puerto Principe; but by orders of General
Hodes he was sent here, arriving last night per
'Steamer Triunfo, and by the saute orders he is
to appear_ before:a "militarY -commission 'to -
stand his trial,- not - for - his - participation
in the, present revolution, but also for the
active part he took in the Lopez expedi
lions of 1850 and 1851. There is no doubt but'
that lee will be sentenced_ to__:.death, and-most
probably garroted'instead of shot. The Prensa
of this morning in a most bitter, .ungener
ous, and unbecoming article, argues that only .
the eallows.canhe.a_tit_end_for-so-implacable-,
an enemy. The Spaniards; particularly the_
volunteers;-rejoice greatly over the capture,
though they admit the general is no great loss
to the-Cubans.- They:have-will e..long-eppo-.'
n e ntl n thclr power,_-_and that's What ..pleasest_
_them. No consideration for• his .seventy - odd .
yesrs nor, his gray hairs, will for a moment
detWthem from putting him to death. The
Cubans, of course, regret the capture, but yet
feel no great pity. for the General, still hold
ing him him responsible for-the.fallure of the
- Lilian expedition. '
Later—The Execution. •
May 4—P, M. , -,-General Goicouria has just
teen garroted on the grounds-ly,ing west of
Principe Castle, before several vol
unteers and Spaniards anti a iew foreigeers,
and, in chnseqiience, the Dons are. much
elated;' Vhenlantled yesterday evening the
General was.Yat once ; , : taken to the public
prison, whereritne-head_court-martial soon
after assembled_, :and' with "double-quick-"
proceedings sentenced him to be garroted this
morning.—=, a sentence now executed, as us

lion of Hon.. Sebuyle - r Colfax : .
The Indiana Divorce.
I had no agency- or- connection, directly or
indirectly, in her application for or procuring
a divoiee from Mr. McFarland - in the State of
1 Indiana. She applied to me by letter about a
veer, I thiTK after their separation. for letters
of introduction to persons in Infliana polls. As
it has been my daily .praeliee for years to give
letters of introduction to all personal friends,
and believing her then, as I do now, to be wor
thy of such letters of introduction, I skit her
twoone ; : , ':adiAressed to a former colleagne in
CovaretS/Hon. A. G. Porter, and the other to
an old friend at Indianapolis, T. P. Hughey,
(both witnesses on •the divorce trial.—Editor
Times.] I cannot recall the contents of these
letters, except that I - Think that I spoke of her
in them as a lady in deep distress and worthy
of their esteem. But although I -supposed,
from having heard that her separation from
her husband was final, that she went to Indiana
to obtain a divorce, I gave no testimony in the
letters on that subject, as I had no knowledge
of my own about it, and knew it must be de
cided by the evidence submitted to the Court
when it came on for trial, if such a suit was
commenced. Mr. Porter is a lawyer. Mr. Rich
ardson never asked me for any letter of intro
ductiOn to any one in Indiana,that I remember.
'me First Shooting...Richordson's Story.
I cannot recall the month and day on which
I first heard of Mrs. McFarlancl's intention to
separate from her husband. But I will state
the time, so that point can be clearly defined.
A day or two after the first shooting of Rich
ardson by McFarland I was passing through
New York City—l think it was in March, 1861
—and having read the account
_of it in the_
papers, I called-at - Mr. Sinclair's residence in
West Washington place, where Richardson
was, to see him. I had not, previous to read
ing this account, heard of the separation. I
teued Richardson iu bed, and apparently in
vain ; I told him how it saddened me to find
Dim involved in such a matter and suffering in
eoesequence. He replied by asserting that
there hail been nothing criminal in
bas relation . with Mrs. McFarland ;
hat he always esteemed her highly ;
hat Mr. McFarland hail found them
together conversing at the door of his (Rich
ardson's) room, and reproached her -fora,
charging her with infidelity ; that she had told.
him she would not submit again to such a
charge against her chastity, as she had to other
charges of this kind' before; that the next
morning she left her htisband's lodging; that
this occurrence made Min (Richardson) sym
pathize so deeply with her that his friendship
ripened into affection; that he had written a
love-letter to her which had fallen iuto Mc-
Farland's hands; and that accompanying her
afterward on - her return from.. the. theatre_
where site hail been performing, McFarland
shot several times at him, and wounded him
once, in the leg, I think. During part of this
conversation,, which lasted, probably, half an
hour, Mrs. McFarland was present. She took
no part in the conversation, and was weeping
part of the time. .I understood from Richard
son that the separation was a final ene.
Their Inte - iiiiini to Marry. •
In the same conversation. Mr. Rieharditin
stated to me that if she obtained a divorce
from her husband he intended to marry her it'
alto would 'accept T him, - as - he - believed she
could make his life a happy ono. He did not
ask me to aid in procuring the divorce, and I
supposed from a reference he made to Con
necticut and its - that the divorce would
be applied for in that State by her. She never
at anytime stated to me that Ilie contemplated
marrying Mr. Richardson after obtaining a
divorce, but I think - was present araf

that if she ;' obtained .• divorce 'from

Last - Tuesday evening's eastward-bound pas

Toinah. The woods in the;.vicinity had been
on fire for some time, and a pile of about five
hundred hard Oak ties, seasoned two years,
which "were' placed along the track, about
twelve-miles-from-Tomah were soon - sitbjeot
to the destructive element.
" The danger to the train," says the Mil

Eliglish.maiT steamer from Guyaittill, in' the
latter part of March, 31 r Weir; the Consnl,the
pogtneaSter, and t4Pveral others went on board.
While there Mr. Weir a.ked the postmaster
to give him the Mails for the Consulate, to
which the latter replied he would not
deliver :my mails except from. his of

this response, and slapped ,:lilie , pckSttriaster
in the face_with his-hand..- The Nyack was in
port arthe time; but her Cptain suppeSing no
serious consequences would ensue, sailed next
day for Callao. On the return of the Nyack
on the way to San Miguel, Captain Eastman
was informed that orders had been sent from
Payta to place Consul NV eir under arrest and
carry,him to that port in irons, to be tried for
that Offence. This was reported to Adniiral
Turner, and was the cause of his hurried de
parture from Panama.

regard to the titles of lands claimed by both

for divorce on.the ground of a violation of the
marriage vow.. When the case was called,
Mr. Cuyler,
.for Mrs. Koecker.. asked for a
postponement on the ground that-a writ of
habeas corpus ad teatificand um bad been issued
directed to Dr,..Koecirer, commanding him to
produce in Couit his two daughters, who are
now in a school at Boston. Mr. F. C. Brew

resisted the application upon the ground that
there was no power in the Court to issue such
.:t.writfor_the_purpose_Of bringingin-witnesses.
The point was argued at considerable length,
much feeling being evinced on both sides, and,
at the close of the discussion, the judge refused
the application, and a jury was ordered to be
called.
