performance in many respects very fine. Her exc
cuton of the music in the first act faulty however
and her lower notes have been seriously by the
effects Of the prevailing epidemic at this Of the
year. As there alteration in the cast (other
than the substitution of Stefenone for Vestval in
Ieonora,) with which the opera given fortnight
since, we could but repeat words used upon that
occasion. The performance a satisfactory one.
On Wednesday, "Lucrezia Borgia," which created
quite furore last Friday night, will be given again

THE NEWS FFoA HAvANA-FArE OF THE
CUBAN STATE PRIsoNERs.-In another column
will be found highly interesting and important
intelligence from Havana. The late abortive
conspiracy, like all illdirected efforts Of SINH
lar character, has borne its first melancholy
fruits. Ramon Pinto, Juan Cadalzo, and Nico.
las Pinelo have been condemned to death by
the Military Commission, although, with one
exception, the prosecuting Fiscal did not call
for 80 severe punishment. 1t would appear
from the statements Of our correspondents that
the evidence upon which these gentlemen have
been convicted is Of a most suspicious and un-
satisfactory character-consisting mainly Of
the declarations Of the informer Rodriguez,
who is represented to be an escaped criminal
who had been condemned to thirty years SER
vitude with the chain gang, for various crimes.
These declarations are said 10 be SO contra
dictory and inconsistent in themselves as to be
inadmissible by any court not influenced by
political and personal considerations. 1t is
said that the prosecuting Fiscal has been
thrown into prison for his moderation towards
the accused As this latter statement seems to
require COHuTmdtiOA, ~ 10 put luiI w Suspcnu
our judgment as to the differences to which il
it would lead in regard to the intentions of the
Captain General. Considering the nature Of
the evidence adduced, and taking into account
the fact that the Auditor Of the Royal Tribu
nal has signifed his disapproval Of the sen
tenoe, there are reasonable grounds for be-
lieving that the lives of the unfortunate pri
soners will be spared.
