His person was enveloped in a white shroud. The executioner then removed tho shroud, and thero stoo l the General in his full military uniform before the assembled multitude. His appearanc wm calm digni fied und heroic. Not a muscle quivered. He looked upon the preparations for death un moved, his coiintenunco changed not, and Ins whole bearing was firm and manly. The executioner now removed Ids embroidered coat, bis sash, cravat, and ail the insignia of his military rank, in token of disgrace. Gen. Lopez, with his hands tightly bound together in front, stepped forward, and in a strong, eleßr voice, slowly spoko to those around us follows:— " I pray the perron* who have com promised me, to pardon mo us I pardon them. My death will not change the destinies of Cuba." [Tho exccutionor, standing a little behind, hero interrupted him in an insulting tone, with "C'ome, be quick, be quick "] General Lopez, turning his head partly n round, fixed his ci o on the man, and said sternly, gritting his his teeth, "Wait, Sir." He then continued .— "Adieu, my beloved Cu lm ! Adieu, my Urcthrent" Tho General then stepped back, and seated himself on the stool. A priest with a crucifix and ta per stood on 0110 side of him, tho exocutiia er on tho other. Tho cellar \vas then placed around tbtf pri27,cr's nock. The priest now l>l D C'oi\ tho crucifix between the General's hands, and just as he was in the act of incli ning his head to kiss it, tho executioner swung the fatal scrow, and tho head of tho unfortunate man at tho sumo instant dropped forward, touching tho crucifix. Ho piover moved again. Immediately nfler the oxceution, General Lopez's body was taken down and privately buried. Among tho relatives of General I.opcz in Cuba, are, bis brother-in-law, tho Count of Pozosdutces, o noble of great wealth and high character, Murlumo Frias, widow of a nobleman of wealth, is his sister-in-law.

Ho has a son 13 years of ago, studying in Switzerland. Ilia wife is in Paris. Tho General was very wealthy, but spent his income as fast as ho received it. In this, and tho previous unfortunate ex peditions, ho lost very largo sums. [Correspondence of the N.

The Crime *ol' Voung "I'linronti " The exocution of young "Pharoah," at the early age of 20, for tlie crime of murdering a young woman, for tho sake of her gold watch, ought to fnrimli a lesson for the im proved education of the young, nnd their employment in useful industry, that will place them above tho temptations of idle ness, povorjy orjvant. Stephen Girard left bis of seven millions of dollurs chiefly to secure to orphan youth a sound moral education, and the means of fu ture independence, by ' binding them out to a trade." Statesmen, sages and philanTliro pists, in all ages, have labored to provide poor youth With the means of subsistence through honest industry, and giving them a control over their passions, by wise and proper moral instruction in early life. In his letter to his mother, just previous to his ex ecution, Tharoah expressed his sorrow that he did not go back to bis employer, and 'stay his timo outfrom which wo may in fer, that ho thought such a courso of con duct would have saved him from this revolt ing crimo. Leaving his employer, and "re fusing to return," when advised to do so by (lis mother, were tho obvious causes tliu' plunged hint into guilt; for tho old saying lias been fuliy verified in his ease, that the "Devil is always whispering mischief in the ears of the Kile." Tho condit ion of life be ing labor, useful occupation cuts off all temptation to wear ont tho timo by tho grat ification of tho bad passions ; and as he who is idle must necossarily become poor robbery and inurdor slalk in to entice the wretch to his perdition. His words to his father could perhaps be truly uttered by ma ny who now tread on the dizzy precipice of crime. "Father! you know yon have not acted a good part towards me ; you have never afforded mo a good example In follow, and permitted mo to grow up in ignorance uiul vice ! What words arc theso to bo ad dressed to a father, by a 6011 standing under the gibbet I But, ,if that father neglected lii 3 duty, that nogloct was no apology or jus tification for tho crime of tho son. This fal lacy is becoming too common. Parents can not be too severely reproved for the ncglec l of their children's minds and morals ; but murderers cannot bring thoir crimes homo to their parents. No man is so ignorant as not to know the devilish turpitude of murder. Wo want moro caro, liowover, over tho minds and morals of children, and loss anx iety to pamper their appetites, and gratify their passions. Moral education cannot be gin too soon, nor habits of industry, as a means of living, bo too early and 100 assid uously implanted in their characters CENIOT'S FACTS FBPM THE CENSUS.—A writer in one of tho New York religious pa pers is comparing tho census returns in re gard to tho prevalence of insanity, between the whites and the blacks, and tho rolative proportion. Tho facts adduced show that in sanity is greater among the free blacks. In tho Stato of Maine every fourteenth colored person is an idiot or a lunatic. And though there is a g adual improvement in the con. ilitii-pGrf il.u --loro.l r.ieo us WO piocded west and south, ylt it is evident that tho ftoo States are lite principal abodes ol idiocy and iunacy among llietn, In Ohio tljere aro just ten colored persons who are idiots or lu natics, where there is ono in Kentucky. And in Louisiana, where a largo majority of tho population is colored, and four-fifths of thorn are slaves, there is but one of those unfor tunates to 4309, who aro sane. Tho propor tions in other States, according to tho census of 1840, are as follows : in Massachusetts 1 in 43: Connecticut 1 in 185; New York I 257 , Pennsylvania 1 in 250 ; Maryland 1 in 1074; Virginia 1 in 1309 ; North Carolina 1 in 1215 ; South Carolina 1 in 2140; Ohio 1 ill 105 : Kentucky lin 1053. This is cer tainly a very curious calculation, and indi cates thai diseases of tho brain aro far more rare among the slaves than atnoug tho free of the colored race.

James Campbell Esq., being tho Junior counsel, opened in a speech which lasted upwards of tlireo hours, and without the usual indulgence for perpara tion being extonded to him. We but ex press the universal sense of the numorons auditory in pronouncing this forensic effort of Mr. Campbell ono ,of the happiest and ablest that lias ever been listened to in our criminal sessions. The young orator commenced with the beginning of Dr. Dyott's career as a banker, and truced the liueamcnts of his portrait with a master band, following liirn through his dark and tortuous course, up to the hour of his arraignment at tho bar for fraudulent insolvency. The method, the earnest and impressive munnor, the analytical ability and familiarity with tho laws and fuels of the clfto, evinced by Mr. Campbell, be spoke the talents which must elevate their possessor to an enviable rank iu bis profes sion, and surprised all whoso [attention bad not been previously attracted to tho unassu ming cureer of this youthful advocate. Too much credit we think, cannot bo a wurJcd to this gentlemen and bis colleague for the patient and indefatigable industry, the tact and talent which they have dis played in the conduct of the prosecution. Bo sensible wore tho able counsel of tho ac cused, of tho impression made upon the Court and Jury, by tho powerful apifbal of Mr. Campbell, that Joseph 11. Ingcrsol), Esq., asked permission to occupy the interme diate time until Monday noxt preparing his reply. This was granted by tho Court.
