The execution Of Walker is at length fixed
fact beyond the shadow Of a doubt. The account
we publish this morning from the Havana and New
Orleans papers will be found deeply interesting

nected with the sad and tragic end OF that un.

charaot eristic-bref. manly and honest: nothing
could be more edi(ying than the Christian and
heroic manner in which lie met that death which
his restless nature seemed to court and his wild,
eyentful career was sure to find. All through the
exciting scene Of his Imprisonment and execution,
the people OF Honduras behaved with respect
and humanity which do them infinite credit; and
we hear OF no insult to Walker, living or dead. or
any Of his followers, from any source which can
be considered reliable.
