Telegraphic dispatches have been received at
the Treasury Department, from official sources
in New Orleans, dated the 4th instant. One
of them says =" The Cherokee is below, and
telegraphs from the Balize that LopEz was cap
tured on the 29th of August, and hung on the
lst instant. One hundred and fifty-fve of his
command were taken prisoners. They were
mostly Americans, and were in possession of
the government"
A despatch from the Picaynae office states
that General LOPEZ was captured at San Chris
toval and brought to the city Of Havana, where
he was publicly garotted, and that all his men
We're likewise executed.
This statement contrasts strangely with the
letter dated New Orleans, September 5, which
appeared in the Union of yesterday, in which
it is stated that "LopEz had gained two
victories with loss of but nine men killed
and twelve wounded; and that more than
six hundred Cubans Joined him after the defeat
of EMMA" and with the following commentary
of the Richmond Enquirer of yesterday, VIZ
"The last accounts from Cuba utterly put to
flight the notion that the inhabitants of the island
are cohteht win the DOMINION OF Spain. They
scatter to the winds the idle stories which the
Cuban Captain General and his allies in these
States have so ndustriously circulated of the hos
lihty OF the Cuban people to Lopez and his Ameri-
can compatriots. They prove the cause of the
Cuban people to be the same the cause of
Greece, of Poland, and of Hungary. They es-
tablish the fact that the revolution of Cuba is the
spontaneous movement Of her own people, and
not mere piratical invasion Of band of lawless
foreign adventurers. They rescue the memory
OF the lamented Crittenden from the infamy TO
which the Spanish Cuban government, and its
manarchcal allies and apologists in these States,
sought to consign it, and register his name along
side that of Lafayette and Kosciusko"

Presidential Movements,

We observe that number of the leading and
influential Whig papers in Virginia, Maryland
Missouri, Tennessee, Louisiana, and, indeed in all
OF the Southern and Western and many of
the Northern States, express decided preference
for MrLLARD FILLMORE the next Whig candi-
date ior the Presidency. Our own impression is
that Mr.. FILLMORE at this time is the choice of a
large majority of the Wings of the United States
While the popularity of others is confined to par
ticuar localities, Mr.. Fllmore's popularity ia ma
f'ondl, overlapping all party bounds and sweeping
down all opposition. His Administration has been
unexceptionable, and eminently deserves the sup
port of all parties He has been a faithful and
honest President He has done justice to North
and South. He assumed the duties of the Office
under most embarrassing circumstances These
duties he has discharged almost miraculously TO
the satisfaction of all sections He pursued tho
even and quiet tenor Of his way looking to neither
extreme OF the Union, but THE WHOLE COUNTRY.
and is now the President of the most contented
people on the face of the EARTH No chief execu
tive officer OF the United States ever displayed
more wisdom, moderation, and Cancellation. To
him are we indebted, in email measure, for the
unparalleled prosperity and general contentment
which everywhere pcrvades the country. Well,
men, may the people Of all parties sustan him.

The Position of Parties-The Southern
Rights Dem ocrats and the Compromise.
We can appr eciate the difficulties which
must beset member of the Nashville Conven-
ton--one of the volunteers from TENNESSEE
who, as Mr.. RHErr expresses it, wheeled their
State into the line of Disunion Sin five days''-
when he finds himself in position of apparent
hostility to his old friends. This may well ac
count for the tenderness with which our con
temporary of the Union has treated his former
co-operators, and see-sawed for such length
of time between QUITMAN and FooTE in Mis-
sissippi, TRousDALE and CAMPBELL in Ten
nessee, MCDONALD and Com in Georgia
Hence it is, no doubt, that opposition to the
Compromise in the South is such very differ
eut thing in his judgment from opposition at the
North; that freedom of speech and of action is to
be 50 much more kindly tolerated among Seces
sionists than among Disunionists of other com
plexions; and that Southern enemies of the Ad
ministration, who openly profess hostility to the
Compromise, are sustained and encouraged,
while its Northern friends, who are ready and
willing TO sustain the Administration, notwith-
standing a difference of opinion on the Com
promise, are denounced and stigmatized Hence
it is that it is right in the eyes of the Union
for the Opposition to seek to strengthen itself
by all the fag-ends of discomfort and secession;
and wrong for the Administration to keep any
terms with men who acquesce in it's policy,
but who claim for themselves portion of the
latitude which is so freely extended to men in
another quarter who openly seek to overthrow
the Administration, and the Constitution itself.
The Union, indeed Z occupies an anomalous
position. We doubt if there is any thing like
it in the history of party controversy. In his
annual message President FILLMORE rendered
the issue on the fnaity of the Compromise
! He proclaimed his intention to regard il as a
final settlement Of the agitating questions il EN-
braced, and invited the people TO rally upon
and maintain that ground. If we remember
| rightly, the Union newspaper responded cor.
daily TO the recommendations of the message
in this regard 1t declared, with peculiar EN-
phasis, that they were ''woRTHY TO BE WRIT
TEN IN LETTERS OF GOLD" IL has since, {
thousand times, represented the issue thus ten
dered as the only important question before thu
people. Other questions were laid aside a.
altogether subordinate. There was, then
nothing left for party difference encep
the Compromise; and the Union has beer
from that day 70 this claiming that th'
DEMOCRATIC party are even more in favor o
the PRESIDENTS distinct and declared policy
IN this behalf than the PRESIDENT himself
) But, for all this, the Union keeps up warn
opposition TO the Administration. Why2
the Dniop is sincere in its desire TO uphold tn
Compromise, why does it seek to weaken ant

''By that adjustment we have been rescued from
the wide and boundless agitation thatsurrounded

lPREsIpENT FILLMoRE's MESSAGE.
1.-The Presidents message, at the opening of the
present session of Congress, expresses fully and
plainly his own and the unanimous opinion OF all
those associated with him in the Executiv admin
'stration OF ~ Government, in regard to wha,
are called til Adjustment or Compromise mea
'sures of ast session. That opinion ia, that those
mea5ures should be regarded in principle as
a fnalsettlement of the dangerous and exciting
subjects which they embrace; that though they
were not free from mperlections, yet, in their
mutual dependence and connexion, they formed
system of compromise the most conciiatory
and beet for the entire country that could be OBJ
tanned from conflicting sectional interest and
opinions, and that therefore they should be ad
'hered to, until time and experience should de-
monstrate the necessity of further legislation &c
guard gainst evasion or abuse. Thatopinion sc
TAR as know, remains entirely unchanged, and
will be acted upon steadily and decisively. The
peace ofthe country requires this; the security Of
'the Constitutionrequires this; and everyconside-
ration of the public good demands this. If tn,
Administration cannot stand upon the principles
ofthe message, it does not expect to stand at ALL
