The Empire City, ut New York, brings
intelligence of the deplorable end of the lale
expedition against Culm. She left Havana
on tho 1st, and the following is the account
of Jim events which bud transpired. How
different the terrible reality from the "glori
ous victories," "Lope joined by 4000 Span
ish soldiers," which have been heralded
ver the ountry
Havana for the last three days, has been a
theatre of the most intense excitement ever
witnessed in the island of Cuba. On Satur
day, the 30ih ult., the news reached Havana
of the capture of General Lope, and his for
ces; and never was news received with
Itaore joy and apparent satisfaction. It was
a day of jubilee and rejoicing 1 in the even
ing the principal buildings in the city were
illumjnaled, torch light processions formed,
&c. The next day (Sunday) which is
generally a holiday was doubly so now, in
honor, as they said, of the victory of the
Spanish troops. Gnus were fired from mor
ning till night. Shouts and vivas for Concha
and the Queen were continually offered.
Lopez was shot in effigy in different parts of
tho town. He was dressed in the full uni
form ot a Generul, and under his loft arm
was a game-cock, and in his right hand a
pack of cards. The rabble amused them
selves by shooting at the effigy all day.
Gen. Lopez was condemned to be garro
ted on Monday, the 1st of September. On
Sunday morning the. war steamers Pizario
and lobelia Catholica were dispatched 1
Bahia Honda and Muriel, to bring tip the
troops, prep;iratoryto the execution. It was
reported that the Pizairo had gone down for
Lopez, but it was afterwards ascertained
that he had been in tho city all day, but was
Jtept perfectly quiet, in order to prevent con
fusion. Late in the afternoon, the steamers
Habanero, Almendares, l'izarro and Isabella
Catholica ull arrived, loaded with troops,
being the remainder of those engaged in
the several engagements with Lopez. They
were marched to the Plaza de Hernas, were
they were inspected by Concha, after which
they retired to thoir rendezvous, complcloly
exhausted and tired out.
At half-past six o'clock, on the 1st of Sep
tember, tho troops were assembled at the
place of execution, which was at the "Pun
tu," at the entrance of the harbor, directly
opposite ilia Moro. There were on the
ground at the time 5,003 troops, 3,000 in
fantry and 1,000 calvary, and about 8,000
citizens. A few minutes before T, Lopez
was brought forward, and ascended a plat
form, (about fifteen feet high,) on which
was the chair of execution. He turned, and
facing the multitude assembled, addressed
them with a short speech ; the conclusion of
which (and his last words ) was-, "I die for
my beloved Cuba." Ilo then took his seat
the machine wns adjusted, and at one turn
of the screw, his head dropped forward;
then all that remained of him, who had so
long been the terror and dread of the Cuban
government, was a cold, black, lifeless body.
He evinced not the slighest trembling or
fearhis step was proud and firm, and his
voice clear and distinct. A few hifwes and
groans were heard from the crowd after the
execution save that, everything was oidl
nary and quiet.
There are now in Havana over one hun
ilred prisoners (Lopez men,) who uro to
be sent to Spain for-tun years confinement
in a dungeon. The remainder of the forces
are supposed to have perished fiom hunger
and fatigue. From the report of tho prison
ers themselves, their sufferings before cap.
ture were intense thi-y say that they lived
several days on the leaves of trees and tho
Jast meat- they had was from the horse of
fieneral Lopez, which they killed and divi
Jed among themselves.
(Lopez, w hen taken, was wandering about
tbe'Cesutry alone. There are various reports
us a rhe manner of his arrest. Some say
he was captured by dogs. Another report
that ho went to a farm-house and asked for
something to cat and permission to lay
down which was granted him; ha fel
asleep, during which lime the owner of the
place obtained the nsistance of four men,
who bound Lopcx hand and foot, then dis
patched a person to the nearest rendezvous
of troops, where he was made secure.
The prisoner say that, in no instance have
tin Creoles of the island manifested the least
disposition to joia the intaders. Every ac
lion ,'.iey had with the troops they were
viotoiious. It was impossible for Spanish
General to rally the soldiors. The number
of troops killed, wounded and inissiti?, is
two thousand. Among these i the brave
Euna, second in command to Concha, and
aid to be the best and bravest officer in the
army. 1 Ho.was shot through the thigh, at
the head of an advancing column.
There are no fears of an invasion. The
annihilation of Lopez and his forces hat res
tored, iu a measure, peace and quiet in the
city, and the excitement is fast subsiding.
Anion? the prisoners tukeu and shot, are
Thomas Little und Georga Wilson, of Phila
delphia. .... .
The steamer Falcon arrived from Chagrea
an )tw 3 1st ull., with 390 passengers.
where whs confined D. Francisco A. Laine,
who, beii.tr sworn, offered to testify to the
truth ai follows : ' ,
He said, that the expedition which started
in the steamer Pampero numbered 600 men
exclusive of some who had ' joined the
learner in the Mississippi river J but the
captain having made known that it was im
possible to carry all, a portion returned, lea
ving on board 480 men, who were all who
disembarked at Morillo ; that tho object
wns to go first to the river of St. John, there
to effect a junction with a force of artillery
which was waiting there, and then to land
at some point in the central department ;
but, having touched at Key West for stores,
Lopez received information that Piuar del
Rey, and almost all of the Vuelta de Abajo
had revolted ; that it was then resolved to
land somewhere in Vuelta de Abajo ; that
by a mistake of the pilot, they were taken
before Ma(nnza, and were obliged to re
turn by Havana,, in search of the port of
Ortigosa, where they proposed to land, but
were prevented by the frigate Esperunza ;
that the officers were Narciso Lopez, a Hun
garian, Air. rragay, Col. Crittenden, and
two others named Llind and Clinton ; that
the captain of the Cuban company, to which
deponent belonged, was Ildefenso Oborto,
who was killed at Las Pozas ; that the de
sign of Lopez was to establish a Cuban re
public, counting an an insurrection in the
country, and the good will of the troops
Being asked what occurred after his land
ing until brought here, he said that they
disembarked or. the shore of Morrillo at 11
o'clock at night on the 11th inst., without
any opposition beyond four or five dischar-
ges, which dispersed some countrymen of
Morrillo ; that they found the shore deserted
the store open and forsaken, and having left
something less than two hundred men under
Col. Crittenden in charge of the unnecessary
arms and provission, the remainder of the
expedition under Lopez advanced to Las
Posas without meeting anything except a
few countrymen, who fled when they saw
tho advance ; and that when arriving at
Las Ponas they found the town abandoned,
nor were they able Jo make the inhabitants
return, notwithstanding the offers made to
them ; that the day following they were
attacked by the troops of the Queen, who
in the end were forced to retire, leaving
them in possession of the place, with the
loss of Coi. Pragay, a colonel w hose name
he had forgotten, Cap). Oberto, and somo
fifty killed and wounded J that finding they
did not encounter the expected sympathy
amongst the people, und were attacked by
the very troops whom tlioy expected to join
them, they resolved to resort to the moun
tains, and with this object started for Pinar
del Rio, but by the error or treachery of the
puide were conducted to the coffee estate of
Frias, where they had another encounter
with the troops, which resulted in tho loss of
four or five men, which, with what were
before lost, reduced the force at Frias to 220
to prevent other expeditions leaving the
States ; and you cannot but do well in cau
tioning the public, and publishing to the
world the dasinnlly conduct of these base
wretches, the "Creoles," who, by their
cowardly conduct and base promises, indu
ced that handful of brave men to come on
here, to their almost total destruction.
About 140 are left to be sent, probably for
life, to the quicksilver mines in Spain.. . .

EDITOR'S TABLE.
JUDGE CAMPBELL AND THE TICKET
"AS A WHOLE.
It ts arousing Id see Id what shifts the
friends of Judge Campbell are compelled
to resort, in order to cover op his deficien
cies or rather to bolster up his qualifica
tions. Knowing that none of the members
of the Bar at Philadelphia, would venture
to endorse hit qualifications, they resort to
those, who though they ore lawyers, pur
sue politics as a profession. Mr. Buchanan
was, therefore, called upon first, and al
though it is said Mr. Buchanan never heard
Mr. Campbell try a cause or deliver on
opinion, he vouched for It is qualifications
with as much gravity and assurancp,-as he
did for the tariff views of Mr. Polk, and of
which, subsequent events proved that he
was either totally ignorant, or that he as
serted what he knew to be unlrue. But
Mr. Buchanan had just completed an alli
ance "offensive and defensive" with Mr,
Campbell, and was bound to perform his
part of the contract upon the principle of
Ticrkrl me, Jim-,
Ticket me do,
If you'l ticket me,
I'll ticket you.
More recently Hon. George M. Dallas,
whose course upon the tariff' was as incon
sistent and even worse than Mr. Buchan
an's, felt himself constrained to say some'
thing that might he construed into on ex
pression of an opinion in favor of Mr,
Campbell) although if ever any man was
"damned With faint praise," Mr. Campbell
lias been by Mr. Dallas, in this same speech,
an extract of which is published and head
ed as endorsement of Judge Campbell's
qualifications, and in which Mr. Dallas ap
proves of the "Democratic State Judicial
Ticket as a tMoe," as being an excellent
one. Now Mr. Dallas knew that Mr.
Campbell was the only candidate on the
ticket whose qualifications were at all
doubted. Yet he did not venture to men
tion Mr. Campbell's name, but speaks of
the legal learning, &.C., of the ticket "as n
whole," and this is heralded in the papers
as "Mr. Dallas' opinion of Judne L'anui-
bell."
Now if this "Delphic saying" of Mr.
Dallas, means any thing, it moans that the
legal learning, &.c, of the other four can
didates is such, that the ticket "as a whole"
is a superior one, if even the fifth should
be looked upon as a cypher. He no doubt
thinks that what Judge Campbell lacks
may be made up in the superior learnin"
and abilities of Judges Gibson and Lewis,
Black nnd Lowric, who are all men emi
nent in their professions, and whose qtiali-

His Excellency, the ariiit General, has
permuted the insertion, in the w&utal g
aelte, of the following acMUttf of p. Fran
cisco Alexander Laine, one of those ubo
comprised (he piratical expedition.
In the Plaza of Havana, August 30, 185),
the Ser, l'iual, accompanied by my sec re
lary, proceeded to the Casllo of the PresiJo,
men, including 12 or 14 wounded ; that
with these they passed to Brujo, and spend
injjr the night in union, went to Martiteronea
or Candelatia, where, on the 21st, in num
ber not exceeding 200 men, when breakfast
iiig, they were surprised, attacked and dis
persed by the troops of the Queen. A hun
dred or more hid themselves iu the forest,
one-third without arms, where they remain'
ed for four days without any food except a
horse, some corn and wild plantains ; that
then arriving at a road, the deponent left the
rest, in order to write to his mother, and
that for this purpose he went to a hacienda,
where were some officers of Galieia, who
told him that it was not necessary to write
at the moment, as they were ordered to give
quarter ; that he was dolived to Brig. Gen
Rozales, sent to Bahia Honda, and thence to
this city.
Being naked what resources the expedition
relied upon, both in the United Slates and in
this island, who weie there principal agents
and correspondents there and here, he said
that almost all the resources were from Mr,
l.eirur, who, according: to Lopez, nail given
$75,000 to purchase the Pumporo ; that sun
dry cannons and arms were purchased at a
sale of Government remnants ; that the car
touches, &c, &c, were purchased through
merchants in New Orleans, whose names he
had forgotten, under a receipt from Lopez
that he had heard money had been sent from
the island, and many valuable jewels, which
various young persons had come to the id
land to receive ; nnd that although they had
believed that, in this island, there were
oilier resources, yet afler their landing they
had received none ; that the agents in the
United Slates were Legufj Cuchins k Co ;
that these were the only prdrhoters of this
expedition ; that Lopez had constantly said
that they could not count on metallic aid in
ilia island, without the co-operation bf the
junta in Now iurlc, wlncti nau unagreed
with Betancourt and Aguero in respect to
the mode of organising the expedition ; that
the junta referred to is composed of various
other Cubans besides those mentioned, of
whose names he was ignorant : that all
which ho has said is true, lie, &o.

Havana, August 3d, 1851.
The Herald has two letters, which says,
Lope happened to koow the country well,
as be once owned an estate in the vicinity ;
he und bis men took up their march to the
muged heights. . The Spaniards, after a
while, followed him, guidud by the country
people and their dogs, who ferreted out Lo
pez's men in the morasses, gulleys, and
precipices to which they fled to escape.
Many were rescued thus from certain death.
An order came from the Governor of Ha
vana to give quarter, and ta stop shooting
lira enemy. By this one hundred and thirty
have escaped with their lives ) the number
landed was (48.
The greatest enemy of the Lope party
weiw the country people. The same spirit
was shown by them as w hen the French hi'
vadod Spain precisely the same feeling.
Lopez was lunroundci by upwards of six
thousand Spanish troops, and, after holding
out 9 days, vat 'eventually hunted through
the mountains ly blood hounds, and finally
betrayed by a Creole. Do all iu your power

A whig meeting
Was held at the Court House in this
placei on Tuesday evening, which by ap
pointment, was addressed by John C. Kun
kel) Esq., of Harrisburg, who ts the Whig
candidate for Senator of this district. The
meeting though respectable in number,
was Hot as large as we expected. Mr.
Kunkel's speech was well received, and in
character was as unobjectionable as a whig
speech well could be. Mr. Kunkle com
menced by refuting a rumor that he op.
posed the Railway from this place to Har-
risburg, and insisted that the only opposi
tion he made was to compel the Company
to make it all the way on the east side, in
stead of crossing to the western side above
that place. That he was induced to do so
at the instance of his own immediate con
stituents, and that tie always felt himself
bound to obey their wishes, which was the
best evidence he could ofTer, that he would
faithfully represent all his constituents.
He defended Gov. Johnston in regard to
the compromise resolutions, and the pock'
eting of the bill repealing the act of 1847,
in relation to fugitive slaves. He thought
we had nothing to do with national mat
ters in this contest. In this Mr. Kunkel
will find even many whigs to differ with
him-. There are many who think that
Pennsylvania should shew that she holds
strongly to the late compromise ads, in or
der to quiet all agitation, nnd render more
permanent the bonds of the Union.
After Mr. Kunkel had concluded, Mr,
Mumma addressed the audience, after
which the meeting adjourned.
The contest in the district will be as
Warm as It is close. Mrk Kunkel is a pop
ular speaker, but his neighbor Doctor Heck
is also highly esteemed, and equally popu'

am induced to ofter myself to your suffrages
at the next election for tho office of Associ-

canno boast of being a democrat, nor will I
exult at being a whig-being of opinion that
if a man have no other merit than that of
longing to one or the other of those re

man, t say, is not the best Candidate for pub
lic support. I am of opinion, with the Mun

ved, when the only question, that should be
asked in relation to a candidate (for a Judi
cial oifice at least:! is simply this! "Is he
honest, is he capable, is he fit " These ques
tions it is your unquestionable province to
decide. Under this persuasion of the quali
fications for the office, it only remains for me
lo say, that should I be elected, t will en.
deavor so lo perform the duties of the office,
as never to inquire, or desire to know, the
