TRIUMPH OF LOPEZ.
Confirmation of Gen. Enna's death.


The following dispatch, from New
Orleans, which came to hand last even
ing, fully confrms the news we publish
ed yesterday in dispatch from Savan-
nah, announcing the arrival of the
schooner Merchant, with dates from Ha-
vana to the 23d ult.
New 0aLEANs, Sept. l, 1S51.-Thc
steamer Cincinnati arrived here TO-DAY
from Havana, bringing dates to the 25th
alt., being seven days later than those
brought by the Empire City.
She brings accounts of the undoubted
success of General Lopez, and his total
route ofthe army ofGeneral Emma, which
was so repeatedly reinforced to ercoun-
ter him. In the battle General Emma,
the first officer under the Captain Gen.
eral, FELL mortally wounded, and his
body was brought to Havana and buried
with great pomp and ceremony on the
Goth, five days before the Cincinnnti
sailed.
The Spanish loss had been immense,
and the greatest CONSERVATION prevailed
IN Havana, where the patriots were pre-
pairing to meet Gen. Lopez, who was re-
ported as marching on the city with a
force OF about 1000 Iiberators.
The steamer Cincinnati, as she came
out from Havana, passed the steamer
Pizarro at sea, bat where bound was not
known.
Great efforts continued to be made by
the authorities to keep the news of Lo
pez's victories from the people, but ii
arrival of the dead and wounded spea
louder than words.
The captured leaders of the revolu
near Principe, some ofwhom gave the,-
selves upto Spanish mercy, have
been shot. -.
A full list ofthe officers of Lopez's lit
tie army is published in Faro Industrial.
Ak American vessels arriving at Ha-
vana are now searched before being al
lowed to enter the port, for fear that
there may be arms or ammunition on
board.
Accounts by the Cincinnati fully CON-
firm the details of the cruelties practi-
ced by the soldiers and rabble on the
bodies Of Crittenden's unfortunate par.
ty. There is no account OF the fate Of
the balance of them.

ious accounts ofthe news brought BY the
schooner Merchant. At the last ac-
counts Lopez was in position east of
Mariel.
The Creoles of Havana were highly
elated at the success of Lopez, and were
Joining his standard. 1t is presumed
that the dispatches brought by the Cher
okee to the Spanish minister related to
the death of Emma. He was wounded
in the leg during an engagement, and
died the succeeding day. The Captain
General distributed brevets to the off,
GERS and soldiers who were wounded on
the 10th.
Don Joaquin Aguero, Jose Tomas Be-
trucourt, fernando Torros and Miguel
Benendio were executed at Puerto Prin-
cipe for high treason.
LATER.
New ORLEANS, Sept. 2.-The news
from Havana, brought by the steamer
Cincinnati, is to the evening of the 25th
ult., and is as contradictory with regard
to the success and fate of Lopez as any
that has preceded it.
A steamer arrived at Havana on the
morning of the 9th, the day that the
Cincinnati sailed, bringing fifteen of the
soldiers wounded in battle at Cadola
on the 21st ult. The Spanish report is
that forty ofLopez's invaders were kill
led and taken prisoners.
a despatch from the Spanish COM
mandant at Bahia Honda announces
that he had 'shot twenty-six pirates" on
the 22d ult., including Adult; mt Graham
and Lieut.. Fercanding-suppossd to be
a portion of the remnant of Col. Critten-
den's command.
The Captain General has issued a
proclamation to all the insurgents who
will surrender within 4 days after the
publication of the notice in their respec-
tive districts the purport of the proc!a-
nation not given and full pardon to
any one who will deliver up Lopez to
the authorities.
The Spanish loss at Cadola is said to
have been very great, several surgeons
having been sent down from Havana to
attend to the wounded officers and pri-
Yates.
The patriots, according to the Span
ish accounts, are shown no quarter.
Those that are taken prisoners are always
Immediately marched out and shot.
A letter received by the friends of
Lopez here states that he is IN a position
that will enable him to hold out against
any force that may be brought against
him for two months. This would seem
to imply that the accounts ofhis march
ing on Havana with large force is un'
! founded.
The Daily Crescent of this morning
publishes letter from the late Col.
William l.. Crittenden, written on the
morning of his execution, in which he
states tnat his command had not single
! cartridge left when they were compel.
led to yield to the attack of the Span
iards, and seek safety in flight. He al
so states that Lopez took no artillery
with him, and it is to be presumed that
Crittenden's guns fell into the hands OF
the Spaniards.
The authorities are making vigorous
efforts to prevent another expedition
from sailing from this port for Cuba, and
the volunteers are using every exertlon
to get off. The subscriptions, however
come in slowly.
1t will BE- seen there is no mention
IN this dispatch of the death and burial
of General Emma. though as there is nc
denial of it, the despatch being from the
same source as that which announced
I it, it may possibly be correct.

SUCCESS OF LOPEZ.
Death OGGen. Emma.
anticipated Capture OfHavana.

The following highly important dis
patch was received from the editor of
the Savannah Morning News last night:
SAVANNAH, Sept. l, III P. M.-The
schooner Merchant arrived here to-day,
with Havana dates TO the Odd of Au-
gust. Her news is Of intense interest
and highly encouraging for the Patriots.
Since the 18th, Gen. Lopez and his
army had encountered the Spaniards in
several contests, in all of which the lat
ter had been defeated with very heavy
loss.
On the 18th, a battle occurred, in
which Gen. Emma, commander-ln-chief'
of The Queens forces, was killed, to-
gether with a large number Of officers
and men.
Lopez is now marching upon Havana,
at the head of an army of 1900 or 1000
men, which is daily receiving large ac-
cessions from the surrounding country.
The Spanish troops are completely
cowed by the frequent reverses which
they have sustained.
Gen. Emma was buried with great
pomp in Havana, on the Goth.
The greatest excitement and conster-
nation prevailed in that city, as there
were only seven hundred OF the troops
there, who could offer but feeble re-
slstance.
