SCENE IN HAVANA. f.TICUTION Of TWO GOLDIVILf• Two of the soldiery, attached to one of the Spanish regiment stationed at Havana, were shot at an early hour on the morning of the Ist inst., the spot chosen for the execution being at the Punto, a 'Meant piece or point of land at the water's edge, and nearly oppo. site the towering Moro Castle. They had metderad a law student a few weeks previous, and in attempt, ing to take refuge in one of the churches had wows. ded a negro man who stood in their way. The latter died shortly after, and for the commission of these crimes a drum-head court martial them to beadier. Many different stories were in circulation at Haven% as to the motives which actuated the soldiers in lid, ling the student, some snying that they were tired of life—at all events they manifested the greatest imilif, ference from the time cif their conviction up to the moment of their death. Ono report had it that they had left their barracks alone with the intention of set tling a feud between themselves, with knives, but that after drinking two or three times together they agreed to kill the first man that fell in their way, with the sole intention of !seising bath their lives at the bands of the law. One thing is certain—they met the young man, who was advancing with some books under his arm, and asked him if he could inform them where some office' lived. On his telling them that he could not, they at once fell upon him with their knives, cut him in the most barbarous manner, and while be was falling told him that the next time they asked him for information he would be apt to give it them. -Whether this was an act of mete wantonness, whethertbey had soy previous grudge against the young man, or whedis er they were really tired of the incessent drilling and and arduous duties of soldier's life, is more than we can say—they took the life of a fellow being and ex. plated their offence by a death the most horrible. At about 8 o'clock in the morning they were taken from the ptison. near the Punto, by a company of soldiers,accompanied by a priest.and the fellows walked along as cal eless and as gaily at though they were oathe i r way to a merry-making instead of to their own igno. minutia execution--smoking and chatting, and .occa. sionly accosting any comrade they recognized in the crowd on either side. They passed directly by the sp o t where we were standing, and not ten steps off, yet we could detect nothing in their appeatainm to indi cate the criminals, save that they had nu arms in their hands. Just befure reaching the spot where' they were to clue their earthly career, and with beta few fleeting moments between them and eternity, the ci. gar of one of the murderers burnt out, when he cool ly asked the priest for another. The holy man is said to have remarked that the present was no time for such an indulgence? '•Winit time shall I smoke ilf nut toowli' was the prompt answer. - Arrived at the Punto, where two posts had already been driven into the ground, and where the regiment to which they belonged was drawn op on three sides of a square, they still manifested some hardy indiffe rence. The colors under which they had often match-. oil were= broughtup, and beneath . them ware obliged is kneel. - This ceremony over, one of them addressed the multitude: They then hastily shook Melds 'with such of their comrades as were immediately around; and vest stepped boldly and promptly up to the posts, to each of which a rude piece of board had been affixed as attend. One of them was about to seat - himself . with his face towards his executioners, but this wee' prevented; the other stooped over, appmently to blotv • of brush something nom the seat which might soil his . clothes, and then sat down. Their arms were now tightly pinioned with cords around the posts—their ' lep were, next closely and roughly brought around and tied in the same war-otai still the d00100(1 men did not appeur in the least to quail, or change color, hut on the contrary manilested the same recklessness . and cool indifference throughout. *Eight soldiers, four to each man were then marched up immediately in the rear, and, without a word, or even a signal that ate enfold hear or see, levelled their musket!' at the backs of the condemned, fired, sad in atmost an instant their cotnpartions wens in etensit... The mnules of the guns was certainly nut a yard off—so close in fact, that site linen jacket of one of the murderess was 'set on tire—yet even at this distance it did not appear that 1 more then two balls struck either of them. Tbeband next attuck up, the regiment marched only from the spot, Bad thus ended the execution of the two Spanish soldiers. We have seen men shot in t:atiada nod is Meviro—but there was a despatch, an indifference, and at the same time a business like air about this avana execution, that was entirely new to us. HENRY HIGBY WO I . [L, I Do d'Juan F de lu Rionda, Patina, Louis de Garcia, Pedro Gerano, T. Antonia, 65.00 1.00 T 11014 AS OWSTON. JAS. PATTERSON, Jr WOMAN IN HER TRUE CHARACTER. A woman must be adorned by domestic habits;—• these are twofold; a fontine• , s for home and qualidca• tions to discharge the duties of the household, These duties may be allowed to be necessary. but some will doubt whether they furrn any part of the ornament of a lady. This is one instance in which the present apt lies egregiously erred and in which a sickly and corrupt feshion has inverted an ancient and healthful cli.torn, and the very laws of the family circle have given place to a miaerahle suspension of its moat in dispensable duties.. It is held derogatory to the style of a lady to belloasastio, and saitalignant blush will show that she wishes not to be considered as taking tiny p trt in the work or ordering of the family. It is in this respect that female education has one .of its greatest defects, and woman has dropped one of her richest plumes to insert in its place an artifleial flower; or condescendi ig to sing Si a mocking bird, of flutter as a bottertly, rather than to maintain the true dignity and usefulness of her sex. Every conceiveable reason refute. this folly. Her nature, her happiness, her health, tom . interests, all mak/shams her place and its repudiated occupations imperious. But in these days. a little beauty. a little money, and a little pride, are sufficient to conceal all these obligation', and remit fotever the most sacred lessons both of religion cid experience. God's word requires the sex to be "ken. per 3 at home." And is it no recommendation of the fair to sustain this character. Nothing in their praise? Home is the empite,.the throne of women. Here she reigns in the legitimate power of all her united charms. the is the luminary which enlightens, end the talisman which endears it. It is she wh o ma k es "home, sweet home," who makes to wandering MLA each domestic encloaure an Eden, and herself the best representation of unladen Eve: who's usicluitiaW and smiles make the dowers look gay, and fruits taste delicious. Could you desire to witness a more inter, citing spectacle than a lady with every other eccom. r plishatent occupied with the welfare of her family, an ticipating and dividing their duties, equally *arable of entertaining in the parlour, and managing in the kitchen! What poetic description hasever surpasevi the scene of the same lady at 11.~r own table, disk-ll:to ting to her guests draughts of exhilarating hewer:its, made mote intarions by rte al i:es ar.d the graceip •Adlich dispatched them?
