Lopez, the scoundrel, has

4.
These are the dying words OF one Of
the deluded victims Of the marauding
expedition against Cuba. written to his
friends on the morning of his execution,
and they tell the whole story. Lopez,
the scoundrel," with his conductors IN
crime, are responsible for all the blood
shed on both sides in this unholy cause.
The same writer, brought to his senses
by approaching death, is convinced that
"all the reports about the Cuban rising
were trumped up in New Orleans."-
II is quite eviden! from this confession,
that oil the rumors in regard to the
friendly rece eption Of Lopez, are sheer
ialsehood. That he was rarniiy met
by the Cubans, these melancholy let.

tives who were under sentence OF death,
expecting TO be ''shot In an hour" They
are the saddest epistles we have ever
read, and contain censures enough we
should suppose, direct and implied, to
charge all the professed sympathy"
for Lopez into the most burning indig-
nation.
Behold this ghastly band Of prisoners
on the deck of the Spanish man-o.-war
pale with fear, fasting, fighting and
rcmorse--with their clothes half torn
from their backs by creeping for days
and nights through thorny chapparals
-inflamed by thirst and fever, and mad
dened by rehecting upon the homes and
friends they should sec no more, and
upon the "scoundrels who had deceived
and betrayed" them to ignomlni ious
death No proud thought of dying for
their country came TO console them in
the sad and trying hour. Such as were
disposed to send parting word to their
friends were permitted TO write and il
will be remarked that a tone remorse, Il
vague praying for forgiveness seems to
burthen every word. II is true they
will try to die like n en-; but it is the
triumph Of pride, not of honor, They
feel that they have fallen victims 10 Lo-
pei, not martyrs to Liberty. II was not
in defence of kindred, country or home
that they armed themselves for battle
and il is only to be regretted that the
Spanish Government had not been wise
enough TO have spared the lives of these
miserable men, who would have done
more by their own testimony 10 put
down the demagogues who deceived
them," than all other means that could
be brought to bear agans, the 'scoun.

The news to-day Of the success Of
Lopez may or may not be true. 1t
comes from Fillibuster organ. What
ever may be the fate him, or Of the
expedition under him, the RESULT cannot
alter the character OF the invasion, or
make that which is essentially wrong,
right by might That the Island will,
sooner or later, be overrun by invaders,
we have never doubted from the begin
ming but such conquest could only
prove curse. The overthrow Of the
Spanish Government in Cuba would be

Lecomc for neither in conversation
with intelligent citizens, nor with militia
authorities, can we find an excuse or
a palliaiion OF the doscrtion Of his rear

Two days elapsed, and Lopez gave
no intimalion OF his position TO his rear
guard nor did he, although his COM
munications were clearly open, until
Col. C.. despatched him n note. We
say, his communications were clearly
open, for, were il otherwise the cores
rondence referred 10 could not have ta-
ken place. Lopez ordered Col c. to
io.n him. with his command, but il does
not appear, nor can it be inferred from
Adjutant Stanford's letter, that any
guides were sent to explore the way, or
to apprize him Of his proximity TO a
hostile force, Overwhelmingly great.
Can any one explain why this was so,
or why the elite Of Lopez's force should
have been lett behind with the baggage,
constantly exposed to surprise, aud
cut off from all aid from the main body
If this was not the result Of design, rs
poor Cook clearly believed when he
wrote hls last letter, il establishes
against Lopez an incomPeiency, an ig-

disrrace the mcrest militia tyro, and Tor
which hc ought TO be cashiered from
