AMUSEMENTS. MISCELLANEOUr). MARINE BULLETIN. rOILT OF PHILADELPHIA-MAY 20 ARRIVED THIS DAY THE CUBAN WAIL Sentence of bioicouirits'Ai Companions-. Americana limprtsoned..-An Americium Judge ►u Danger. , - HAVANA, May 14.—0 n board the Pajero it-1 Ocean° there came here the two Cubans, Gas par and Diego Aguero, companions to the ut.- fortunate General Goicouria in his endeavot to leave the inland. These two gentlemen succeeded in.getting away _from Gualaba is-' land or Key, and in passing over to, Itoinano Key; - but there`Were - seen - by a: fisherman and denounced to the Spaniards and capturdd. They state that the Canadian major who was with them has probably died of hunger and fatigue, and that the four sailors have surely escaped. A Cuban report denies the death of the Canadian major, , ,and -affirms that he-has reached•-one -of •the -Balm man in company with one of the sailors. Seiiores Gaspar and Diego Aguero, who are brothers, the eldest only 28years old,were first taken to Nuevitas by their captors, bttt Gen. Bodas ordered them here from there. Al though they arrivedat 9 P. M., by 10P. NI., or an hour later, they had been sentenced to death by the garrote—a packed drum-head eourt-martial having disposed of their, case with the same haste and speed that charac terized the proceedings against General Gio couria They . were soon after placed in eupilla, and t his-evening-at-41,..-M-.--will-be-garrotedin the presence,no doubt,of thousands of Spanish vr , lunteers and loyalists. Their friends F ay they will meet death with the same wonderful composure and fortitude that General Goieou- Ka displayed. Like him - they "will bedenies an epitortunitvio - make addresses from the scaffold. The elder of the victims,Col. Gaspar Aguero ' Brigadier-General by brevet; I Err lieve, is the same Aguero captured by Count de Valmaseda in January, 1868, during the battle of Bonilla, he (Agnero) being then in .-urgent Governor of the district of Nuevitas. He was sent to Spain, where he escaped from the authorities, went to the I.Tnited Sta,tes,and then•returned to the island ..-some six months ago. This morning a Chinaman, convicted of wounding a Spanish officer of a war, vessel on hich he was employed, was shot on the pa rade ground of Las, Cabanas. Three execa lions in one day! Qf course the Havana - vol- unteers will to-day be happy fellows ! - An Amerleim - Judge In Danger. The Spaniards_ of Havana are very much vexed at the discharge, in Key West, of the. Cubans accused of the murder of Senor Caste non, and loudly curse American justice. In truth, however, they have only Spaniards to - blame. -The wituesses against the accused - Cubans were - all Spaniards, - and-reside - here - in - Havana. When the case was about to come before the Grand Jury-of Key West -the MS trict Attorney telegraphed twice to these wit, uesses to come over to Key West -and appear. In court and give their evidence. In-, steed -of complying, they alleged that rhe - Cubans in - key - - West had - formed conspiii - icy to kill tthem, telegraphed to Washington for unneeded protection and re mained In Havana. _ Under the circumstances ihe Grand July properly failed to find a, true hill against the - accused - Cnbans; Judge J: - H; Goss, who ordered the release of-4„lie Cubans upon the report of the jury, billow on a visit -to Havana;•and some of the most ultra of -the loyalists, hearing of his presence, projected at tacking him in revenge for Ca.stanon's death, hut wiser heads have thus far prevented-their committing the outrage. Judge Goss has been warned by several Spaniards of his danger,ancl keeps on ins guard of the would-be assassins. &Correct Estimate of 'Beth Armies. EI A - ArAirs., - May 14.—The indignation feltat the brutal manner in which General GOicouria -was ezecuted has not been limited to tie - friends .of - free -Cuba-alone r _- but- even- -tie Spanish volunteers, express dissatisfaction at the atrocit3-., .21 - few daySsince three companies of Spanish troops were sent to capture a force of reels in the interior. Twenty-four miles from Saito Espiritu they were met by the rebels, and overcome. Several of the Spaniards mere killed. strati ons ci strengthened,ifilift - cinifirmed;W - r• Mr. Weed's! narrative. He states that secret, information was conveyed to - him, while in Washington, _that Harper's Perry was to be seized, . and that shortly afterward sintilar. information •was given with regard to the Navy Yard at Gos_pert. In both - . instances those important points were occu pied by the _rebels before the Government could take measures for securing'a,ii adequate defence. , This, : it will be remembered, was shortly after the,4th of March, and indicates., a concert of,aetion On the -part ,of the reteds not at all consistent with an assumption that, - thelSonthernmembersTat least - , --- of - President - Buchanan's Cabinet, were in the dark respect.' i it Our readers will also,remember Gen. Cass's otter explaining the • reasgns which induced, lim to resign from the Cabinet in December, iB6O. He could not remain in the, Cabinet and yet be loyal to the country. All these !facts ldad to the conclusion that though it Spanish total 16,6.10 bad been agreed upon that no open demon- Cubans in arms, (nun disease 3,000 stration should be made by the South until Cubans in arms, from the enemy's shot, 2,000 Buchanan's Administration bad terminated, Cubans not in arms, from the enemy's still the.rebellion was being plotted, and ex". shot pedients for precipitating it were discussed. Cubans tried and executed... We believe there was h general understand ins onthat point, for we knew that the sub ject was Canvassed in army and naval • eircles for nionths,and that scores of officers resigned with a view to taking service in the rebel cause. We know, too, that numbers of others • were approached on that subject, and refused to desert the Union flag. AlLtlais_preparation_ could not have been carried on without some members of the Cabinet being apprized of it. There is good reason to believe that at least two of Mr. 'Buchanan's Cabinet—Messrs.Cotib and Thompson—were actively in the interests of rebellion for several months before the close of his Administration, and others were per sonally alive to the tact,if they did not partici.: pate in the conspiracy. At times the Pressure brought to bear upon the President by the two Secretaries we have named,is said to have been so strong and embarrassing that he was moved to tears by his apprehensions. Indecision and timidity were the ruling characteristics of his conduct after Mr. Lincoln was elected. Despite the assertions of Judge Black to the contrary, we aro compelled to adhere to the accepted record of the events of that time,and we believe that it will pass into history,ele.spite all Judge Black'e efforts to change Y.

It is known dwell No. 2, and for twenty-four hours ening Mon day noon had prodnced 359 bar la of oil; itlad been pumping four ho previous 4 I to time of measurement. The wof gas, which was at first very weak,li increased constantly, and up to eight o'cloe ast evening there was no apparent diminutto in the yield of oil. Numerous admiring visitts paid their respects to the new strike yester4y afternoon, and with a new American flat flying from the -top of the derrick,- it was n object of general interest to passengers ver the Oil Creek and Allegheny River 'Broad. The e l Dalzell farm, by its several rec t strikes, has proved to be valuable prop ,'and ranks among the best producing far on the creek. The new well is owned by Jo than Watson, Messrs. Keefer and Potts. ; A new well is being drilled,iear the lower, saw mill about a mile belowthe old Drake well, and on the left bank offil Creek. It is owned by A. H.

Black ) who was Attorney- G hel eel malt r rrebilient Buchanan, and who was transferred to the State Department in December, 1860, when the general disruption of the Cabinet took place, has appeared as the champion of his old Administration—and of "-Edwin M. Stanton I - A more incongruous-sat ofctit'Alseati scar ealy .becon ceived,.nor a more. 7 . -itraordi nary advocate. Mr. Black deals largely in bitter personalities, with which we have nothing to do, but he makes some assertions which are so widely at variance with the ac cepted record of the period to which hid story relates, that we feel called upon to consider them. Hile article appears in the Galaxy for Juno, and is written in answer to one on Mr. Etanton by Senator Wilson: He asserts that President Buchanan was not the weak and irresolute man he is generally supposed to have been ; that the last months of his. Adininistra ticin were not marked by perturbation or inde .cision that no member ot- -his Cabinet dared to act in the interests of the embryo rebellion while in ohice, and that the accusations which have been made to that effect are base fabrica tions.

He declares that Mr. Stanton's Dery ~critic opinions did not change when the war opened, but that he was emphatic in his professed adherence to them up to within a few weeks of his appointment as Secretary of War by Mr. Lincoln, in January, 1862. He admits, however, that his conversion was a real one, and was iminetli ately followed_by a change of party _relations. Judge Black has the grace to say that" he was not a mere fawning hypocrite."

" Delay in cornplying with_the foregoing re quest was not for want of proper -respect for Select Council, but may be attributed to the.. fact that the object of the author . of the reso-,, lotion was tot very clearly expressed 'therein. "From the proceedings of Select Council at • their meeting as published in the newspapers of the city, I now Understand that the. author of the resolution desires to know - by *hat authority ashes are used'in paving the streets. "To which interrogatory I respectfully re ply, by authority . of ordinances approved in March and June in the year 1868. "Notwithstanding Councils have by these ordinances sanctioned the use of ashes, the. Commissioners - of - Highways', - Weilig — sati - gfiii - d — ,„ that gravel is far superior for paving, have (where they have authority to do it without . contravening the ordinance of _Councils) directed the work to be done with gravel. "During the entire term of the preSent . Board of Commissioners the Supervisors'.. under their control have been required in paving streets to use gravel; and in order 'to more effectually prevent the use of ashes • (where it was not sanctioned by Councils),., the Committee un Highways, at the instance of the Chief Commissioner, adopted `a resolu tion that no.bills shall be approved for work done with ashes. "I am satisfied that through the joint efforts of the committee and commission of high ways, that the use of ashes; so far av they have authority in the matter, 7111 not be "per mined. It . must be known to most of the thenibers . of councils that the highway department • has not entire control Over the paving and repair-. ing of streets. „ The-passenger railway companies repair the streets along the. line of their roads; the trustees of the gas works repair the streets.. where they are * broken for the admission of gas pipe, and the contractors for. constructing culverts repave over their work. "These parties claim the right to use ashes, AS councils have, in the ordinances alluded to, permitted their use in new paving, and there being no ordinance to prevent • their use irk making repairs. "Through ignorance of those facts, unjust and undeserved censure is daily heaped upon the Highway Department;even those whose duty it is to investigate these things make qn founded charges, and leave the department to bear the odium, when by Proper inquiry COT rect information could be had and the censure placed where it properly belongs. • "In view of these facts, and in order to re-.' ]love this department from a responsibility that does not belong to it, I would recom mend that Councils forbid by ordinanne the. use of ashes for paving or repairing:streets • by any parties. This being, I think, the only effectual way to prevent it. "Yours respectfully, . . IdAhr orr 8. Drowinsarr, Chief Commissioner of Highways."
