FROM HAVANA.

The steamship United States arrived at New York on Sunday, bringing dates from Havana to the Sd of April. The most im- portapt news is the particulars ofthe execu- ton of Estampes, which took place on the 3oth ult. Consul Robinson, under instruc- tlons, demanded that the trial should be na- der treaty stipulations, but notwithstanding his>protest. Estampes was tried by mili- tary court. After being condemned, he made confession of his design to secure the independence of the Island. and showed the greatest indifference to his fate. At the place of execution, he showed an intention to address the multitude, but the drums and trumpe,s were ordered to sound so that he might not be heard, but notwithstanding the noise. his voice could be heard shouting, Liberty forever! Death to all kings. The prisoners have been condemned to lonu imprisonment.
 One of the passengers by the U. S. writes as follows on the state of affairs in Havana
 During my stay in Havana found gloom and terror, and despair depicted on the coun- Ienances of all met. On inqu;ring learn ed tha: one of the chief causes of So much evident despair was in consequence of the cruel manner in which Pinto (recently exc cuted) was put 10 death. His crime was solely of political nature. for which this much esteemed man, afectionate husband, and kind father was sent into eternity. his property levied upon, and his wife and nine helpless children Jeff penniless, and depen- dent upon the cold charities of strangers. Previous to the murder of Pinto, Concha was considered, even by his enemies, chiy- alrous, brave. noble and generous; bu, now " Poer soul,' he has belied truth, betrayed confidence, silenced conscience, and is con sidered, even by the Galatians, destitute of every generous. attribute that enotles man. This last atrocious act adds thunder to the dark clcud that isapparen,ly gathering over tie dcstinics o.' Cuha. which must, on some future day, burst forth and wreak it's ven- geance oil those who now have the powerto destroy.

His next card was 10 provide key to unlock the outsidc door. and as one key answers for all locks in tho jail, he proceeded to fit a wooden one to the lock of his cell j: but unfortunately for his schemes, he broke his key in the icck on Saturday night, and while trying to re- move the piece he awoke Mir.
