an unfortunate support for the dlsunionisls

When the mob pressed around the fugi-

view TO effect rescue, the Express tells us
that "the Commissioner proclaimed in a

large. Letters say that an express train
had left 81 Havans with surgeons TO attend to
the wounded Spaniurds. The patriots were
always shot as soon as captured.
A letter says tina, Lopez is in position
to hold out tw o months.
