=" Confederation for tho Sick, and High

Dead ~ s#a#a

Reconsideration for tho Sick, and High
hRsvsrSnce for the Remains OF the
| The Intellgencer Of this morning says: "With
the view of discrediting our statement, made on
the authority of letters from the american Consul
at Hauana, that the men who were executed
had been first formally tried before a military
tribunal" SC. We had forgotten this state
ment, together with its authority.
Adjutant Stanford's letter, also in the Intel
ltgencer of this morning, says:
eve made the best of our way to the sea-
shore, and found some boats with which we put
to sea. Spent night upon the ocean, and
next day, about twelve o'clock, were taken pris-
oners by the Habanero; were brought to Ha-
vana last night, and condemned to die this
morning. We are all to be shot in an hour"
"Brought to Havana last night, and condemned
to die this morning. We shall all be shot in an
hour !" Who can have the temerity to dis
credit the statement that these men had BREN
FIRST FORMALLY TRIED !!
The same paper contains the following ex-
tract:
"There are still sixty-four of this command
to be accounted for Of these forty we're surprised
and shot at small farmhouse. A Spanish lieu
tenant reports tnat on the l4tn ne came upon
twenty "pirates" guarding an equal number Of
grounded comrades, all Of aohom were Immediately
put to death p'
But directly under its editorial head is a
Cuba letter, of the 10Th, favorably introduced
by the editors, in which we are told-' The
execution of this morning is variously repre-
scented as having been quite brutal, and by
others as having been conducted with due so
lcmnity and decency. Consideration for The sick,
and high reverence for the remains of the dead, are
among the leading traits Of Spanish character.
If in this case they have acted otherwise, am
| greatly mistaken. You can scarcely believe
any thing written from here by this steamer,
16th, nor will there be another opportunity I'M
til the 31st. You know the Captain General to
be of mild and 6engicent character; but in the
execution of these deluded followers of Lopez,
it is said he acted under the most distinct ex-
listing orders from Spain, and from conviction
that the populace could only be thus satisfied"
| Comment is here unnecessary. We commend
the Intelligencer to the care of the GLOVER
ORDER OF THE Press, in New Orleans and New
| York" or elsewhere 7!
