made prisoners by the Spaniards in the chances of
The vast multitude was addressed by Coils. Field
and Wheat, who spoke in imprisoned strains of the
characters of those of their friends who had been
sacrificed on the alta.s of Spanish cruelty. They
expatiaed the sacredness of the cause Of liberty
in which they fell, and expressed their willingness to
spend and be spent for Cuba and the Cubans.
Judge Walker being loudly called for, addressed
the crowd. counselling them observe the calm and
dignifed demeanor of freemen having, they had,
great wrong to avenge-an insult to wipe out. Acts
of individual violence and passion would only weak

stantiaily, eectualy, and monument for those who
have fallen, be erected in the lovely isle for
whose liberty they fell.
The speakers were often interrupted by out-bursts
of applause, which showed unitedness Of feeling,
and determination to act, the part of the hearers
which could not be readily silenced put down.
The following resolutions were then read to the
meeting, and unanimously adopted, after which the
crowd quietly dispersed

the most dastardiy and bood-thirsy william of the
age, whom it is the duty Of ali mankind to pursue
with their hatred and vengeance, until his life
shall expiate those of his murdered victims
Resolued, That all the aiders and abetors in New
Orleans. of the barbarous dynasty of Spain in Cuba
should be treated by all Americans with con-
tempt and that hostility due the allies of such
cause, accursed, as it must be, by God and man.
Resolred, That will aid the patriot cause in the
Island of Cuba, any and every sacrifice, and with
all the means in our power
Resokued, That, as from the slaughter of Alamo
and Golad, sprung with renewed vigor the germ of

GLORIOUS NEWS FROM HAVANA!
Triumph of Lopez Confirmed.
Confirmation of Gen. EInna's Death.
Lopez Marching ON Havana.

Lopez Marching ON Havana.
! The following dispatch, from New Orleans, which
came to hand last evening, fully confirms the news
we published yesterday in dispatch from Savannah,
announcing the arrival of the schooner Merchant with
dates from Havana to the 23d ult. al. -
New ORLEANS, Sept l, 1851. The steamer Gin
cinnat arrived here to-day from Havana, bringing
dates to the 25th ult., being days later than
those brought by the Empire City.
She brings accounts of the undoubted success of
General Lopez, and his total of the, army of
General Emma, who repeatedly reinforced to
encounter him. In the battle General Emma, the first
ded, and his body brought to Havana and buried
with great pomp and ceremony the Goth, five days
before the Cincinnati sailed.
The Spanish loss had been immense, and the great
est CONSERVATION prevailed in Havana where the pat
riots were preparing to meet Gen. Lopez, who was
reported as marching on the city with force of about
1000 liberators.
The steamer Cincinnati, as she came out from Ha-
vana, passed the steamer Pizarro at sea- but where
bound was not known.
Great efforts continued to be made by the author
ties to keep the Of Lopezs victories from the
people, but the arrival of the dead and wounded
speaks louder than words.
The captured leaders OF the revolution, near Prin-
cpe, some of whom gave themselves up to Spanish
mercy, have all been shot.
A full list of the officers of Lopez's little army is
published in Faro Industrial.
All American vessels arriving at Havana are
searched before being allowed to the port, for
fear that there may be arms or ammunition on board.
Accounts by the Cincinnati fully confirm the de-
tails of the cruelties practiced by the soldiers and
rabbe the bodies of Crittenden's unfortunate par
ty There is account of the fate of the balance of
them.
Second Dispatch.
CHARLESTON, Sept. 2. The Savannah Republican
of to-day contains copious accounts of the news
brought by the schooner Merchant. At the last ac
counts Lopez was in a position east of Marnl.
The Creoles at Havana were highly elated the
success of Lopez, and were joiniag his standard.
II is presumed that the dispatches brought by the
Cherokee the Spanish minister related the death
of Emma. He wounded in the leg during
gagement. and died the succeeding day. The Captain
General distributed brevets the officers and soldiers
who wounded the 18th.
Don Joaquin Aguero, Jose Tomas Betrucourt,
fernando Torros and Miguel Benendio were execu-
ted at Puerto Principe for high treason.

AIMING OF THE U. S. MAIL STEAMERS. We
learn; says the New York Sun, that the U. States
steamer Cherokee which left II. York on Tuesday af-
ternoon for Chagres, via Havana, went well armed,
having on board ten fine guns, six of which are to
be placed upon the steamer Falcon. We learn that
the commanders of these vessels have instructions to
resist promptly, for the future, any insult indig
nifty that may be offered them by any of the Spa
nish vessels of This is the right spirit. 1t
will meet the hearty approval of the whole American
brave and experienced naval officers, and if they
come into contact with any of the Spanish hrengs
they will give good account of themselves. We
should not be surprised to hear of brush between
one of our steamers and the old Caledonia, Haba-
nero, before long.
