We have the following additional particulars
and details of the Cuban news:
The next day Sunday after the announce
ment Of Lopezs capture, which is generally q
holiday there, was doubly SO now in honor, as
they said, of the victory Of the Spanish troops
Guns were fired from morning to night Shouts
and vivas for Concha and the Queen were con-
tinually offered. Lopez was shot in efigy in
different parts Of the town. He was dressed in
the full uniform of general, and under his
left arm was game cock, and in his right hand
a pack of cards. The rabble amused them
selves by shooting at the efigy all day. 1t was
reported on Sunday that the Pizarro had gone
down for Lopez, but it was afterwards ascer-
tanned that he had been in the city all day, but
was kept perfectly quiet in order to prevent
confusion. Late in the afternoon the Habanero,
Almendares, Pizarro, and Isabella Catholica all
arrived loaded with troops, being the remainder
Of those engaged in the several engagements
with Lopez. They were marched to the Plaza
de Hernas, where they were inspected by Con-
cha, after which they retired to their rendez-
vous, completely exhausted and tired out.
At half past six o'clock on the LIST of Septem-
Der, the troops were assembled at the place of
execution, which was at the "Ponto," at the
entrance Of the harbor, directly opposite the
Moro. There were on the ground at the time
5000 troops 5000 infantry, and ], 200 cavalry,
and about 5000 citizens. few minutes before
seven, Lopez was brought forward and assembled
a platform, (about fifteen feet high, on which
was q chair of execution. He evinced not the
slightest trembling or fear-his step was proud
and firm, and his voice clear and distinct. A
few misses and groans were heard from the
crowd after the execution-save that, every
thing was orderly and quiet.
Lopez when taken was wandering about the
country alone. There are various reports as to
the manner of his arrest. Some say he was
captured by dogs. Another report, that he
went to farmhouse and asked for something
to eat and permission to lay down, which was
granted him he fell asleep, during which time
the owner of the place obtained the assistance
of four men who bound Lopez hand and foot,
then despatched person to the nearest rem
devious of troops, where he was made secure.
There are no fears of invasion. The an
Inhalation of Lopez and his forces has restored
in a measure, peace and quiet in the city, and
the excitement is fast subsiding.
The following is the military order announc-
ing the arrest Of General Lopez:
