EX £CUTION OF A CUBAN ROBBER AND URDBSRER. fession te the Captain- three Persons Murdered Extraordinary weneral—T went by bis hand. é a Franciseo Javier Lazo, aged 25 Ww conveyed to the criminal ward of the Hospital San Juan de Dios. in Havana, to receiv: cal assistance for a breast. A few days t pital he was slarmingly ill, end was supposed t» be dying. A priest was summoned to ad- minister the o/eas, secording to the rites of the Reman Catholic Church; but, upon feeling the criminal’s pulse. the priest declared that the under the. influence of some strong nareotic; and the usual poaper having been applied by « physician, the priest’s opinion ww spars On removing azo to another hed. a letter addressed to bis Excellency the Captain-General was found under his pillow, apperently written just previous to his taking the dose of laudanum, with which he had in- tended to destroy himself. It may be doubted whether the annals of erime bear record of greater atrocities having been committed by any single individual than those confessed to by Francisco Javier Lazo in the following letter: To his Excellency the Captain General : Senor: Being about to destroy myself with poison, I desire. before I die, to make known to your excellency the horrid crimes which I have perpetrated in this island, in order that those individuals now in prison under suspicion may not suffer wrongfully for my misdeeds, and also that, by making a full confession, my soul may be somewhat relieved from the load of sin which now weighs it dewn. U I commenced my career of wickedness by being imprisoned at St. Jago de Cuba for a robbery effected in the town of Bayamo. I was confined in a-cell, from which I m my es- cape to the city of Puerto Principe, where, in company with acolored man named Joaquin, I broke into a jeweler’s shop and carried off an entire case of valuable watches, &c., which was taken from me on the road to Las Tunas, by a Commissary of Police, from whom I made my escape. I immediately returned and robbed said police officer. ae At Sancti Spiritus I robbed a similar estab- ment, and on the same night and street broke into two other houses. I then went to Trinidad, and, having effect- ed entrance into the house of an Englishman on Guiterez street, I took therefrom about $4,000 worth of jewelry. I was arrested upon euspicion, but ano trom jail, leaving in the hands of the a rities a trunk, containin; some clothes and a pass, which I obtaine from the Aleade of Sancti Spiritus, under the assumed name of Prudencio Belet. In Matanzas I robbed several houses, from oue of which I carried off some very valuable diamond trinkets; but being pursued by sev- eral watchmen, I was compelled to throw the greater portion away. I succeeded in evading luy pursuers, and soon returned to the city again, and perpetrated great atrocities; after which I started off to Guanajay, where I robbed u vizeaino of a large sum of money; from thence | removed to the village of Guana- bacoa, where I was guilty of frightful excesses. It was I that killed the man who was found laying dead at the foot of the hill called Joa- quis 4 was the murderer of the Commissary of bitice, Martinez; of the Lieutenant from Ja- raco, and others whose names I do not know, found assassinated in the vicinity of the vil- lage, from whence I passed over to Havana, where, in a house rented by a Jew called An- drade, I murdered a police officer named Ma- rante, and his wife. I had been some time contemplating the perpetration of this crime, inasmuch as that Marante was the most ener- gétic officer in the service of the government, and the one who had been the most active in his endeavors to diseover my whercabouts; but ashe lived in an upper stery in a much fre- quented street, it was difficult to get at him. Hower er, I availed myself of a dreadful thun- der storm of wind and rain, and with a rope ladder. crowbar, &c., at midnight, I proceed- ed to the residence of Marante, and soon ac- complished my purpose. I killed him and his wife, as they lay asleep in bed. The same night, and in the same street, I murdered an old man for the saké of his watch and a trifling sum of money I found in his pockets. The next morning [ went to look at the body as it lay stretched out at the gate of the jail, where it had been placed by the police authorities for recognition A few days afterwards. in Campanilla street, outsid> the walls, early in the morning, I drove iy kuite into the heart of a young Frenchman, who attempted to defend his property. Near to the factory, (now the hospital militar.) as also in the Vicinity of the baracoons, I have been guilty of shocking murders At a place called Ajo de Agua, near Matan- zas. on the road to La Mocha, towards dark, I met a gentleman and lady, whom I ordered to step; the gentleman drew a pistol, but before he had time to it I shot him dead with my carbine. I dragged the body into the bush, and after making use of the woman, I cut her throat to prevent discovery. The next day the two bodies were found in the woods, and T fied from Matanzas. because a reward was offered by the authorities to take me, dead or alive. At San Antono I committed various excesses Keturning again to Havana, I robbed seyeral houses—among the number, that of the captain ef artillery, Don Jose Soler. from whom I took 4 large sum of money. and the merchant Frias. Compelled. in turn, to fly from Havana, I pro- ceeded to Guanajsy, where I was captur. by the officer of the district, who caused me to be securely pinioned with cords, and, guarded by fourteen Spaniards, sent me to Ilsvana, but at @ stopping place on the way, whilst most of my captors were at dinner, I managed, unper- ceived, to get my hands loose, and seizing a machete belonging to one of the party, who had carelessly left it on a table, I attempted to escape, but was speedily followed by the chief officer and some others. Seeing that the former was rapidly gaining on me, and rendered furious at the prospect of being retaken, I sud- denly turned round and ran the officer rough the body;with his own machete. I was soon overpowered by the others, who struck me seme heavy blows with their swords, and, half dead from loss of blood, I was conveyed to this city. where I am now laying at the point of death, from having swallowed a dose of poison. Frightful as this catalogue of crimes may be, itis far ffom complete. But I have not strength sufficient to continue this letter. ndish desire appeared to seize hold upon to murder as many human creatures as years Thad lived. Yes, the blood of twenty- three innocent victims cries out to Heaven againt me, and weighs down my soul with hor- ror. _ Rancisco Javier Lazo. Hospital de San Juan de Dios, Meio The miserable wretch (a mulatto, nati Cabs.) recovered from ap mrp oper hed swallowed, was publicly execut. in front of the Punta Castle, acknowledging is his last moments that his death was but a poor atonement for the lives of the unfortunate yic- tims of his murderous hands e and Fretty Woman Falls im th Stra: af Ee Bacheier Railroad Car ana Sieceps The traveler who has been fortunate enough to sit beside an unknown beauty ina railway carri and has had oonversational power Brought into play by her spirit of sociability, can readily comprehend the bliss of a good Yooking bachelor whose car adventure we are about wo relate. This worthy gentleman was a the hap passenger entral Railroad on Monday iat fers to be in the car that was pretty well stocked with humanity. He had managed to retain a seat from the commencement of the journey, until the train had reached a stoping place where a fresh supply of travelers hi entered it. Eben + ing treated politely, that she at once removed the carpet-bag from one end of the seat she occu- pel and invited the gentleman to take its place. Nothing loth, our hero accepted the modest invitation, and was goon en; ina friendly conversation with the belle of the train. They chatted in a lively style until “the shades of night’’ were falling fast, when the young lady’s utterance grew slower, then indistinct, and then ceased altogether, for she was sleeping. Not being disposed to follow her- example, the gentlemen amused himself by watching his fellow-prssengers. and was only reminded of his companion’s presence by her head touching his shoulder. M orpheus had her completely in his folds, and by a series of graceful nods she unconsciously sought the support of her railroad acquaintance. The bachelor was delighted at the first gentle touch, but his pleasures, when in the sweet abandonment of sleep her form nestled down until the whole weight bore entirely upon him, es description. The better to support his heavy burden he placed his arm around her waist and gave himself up to the delirium of the moment. After passing the next station, a gentleman entered the car containing the persons above referred to and commenced examining the faces of each occupant, as though he were in search of some friend. In the darkness of the hour he passed the sleeper and her supporter without noticing them, and it was only when he turned to retrace his steps that the scene attracted his attention. In a moment the shade of anxiety on his features were succeeded by a frown, and he stepped quickly to the side of the fair sleeper. 8 his hand fell heavily upon her shoulder, she started, oponed her eyes and sprang to her feet, blushing celestial rosy red.” Before the bachelor could speak, the new comer po- litely informed him he would take care of his own wife if he had no objections, and straight- way led the lady to another seat. The explanation that ensued unfolded the fact that the lady had been absent for some time on a visit, and was then returning to the arms of her faithful husband,whose impatience hid led him to meet her half way. Eager to on her, he had entered the car only to find erin the arms of astranger. Of course, the stranger told how it erpenea but the frown did not pass away until they left the car. La- dies should be careful how they fall asleep on the wrong vest pattern. ———_—_#+e-______ “A KEERFUL SHEPHERD.’ Mormonism is still in practical operation amongst us. A few days since,a tall, raw-boned Saint, with a complexion very strongly resem- bling that of boiled tripe, arrived here from Pittsburg with a couple of wjves, but deeming his flock too small to start Salt Lakeward with, held forth as follows to an admiring audience, ata house over the canal, with a view to the completeness of his domestic felicity. His text AS: ‘‘Men is Skeerce and Weemenis Plenty.** “Brothern and Sistern—pertickler the Siz- tern: I want to say afew words to you about Mormonism—not for my own sake, but for yourn, for mez ts skeerce and weemen plenty. “Mormonism is built on that high, old prin- ciple which sez that it aint good for man to be alone, and mighty sight worse for a woman. Therefore, if 1 man feels good with a little company, & good deal of it ought to make him feel an awful sight better. “The first principle of Mormonism is, that woman air a good thing, and the second princi- ple is that you can’t have too much of a good thing. Woman is tenderer than man, and is necessary to smooth down the roughness of his character, and as man has a good many rough pints in his natur, he oughtn’t to give one woman too much to do. but set each one to work smoothin some partickler pint. “Don’t think I’m over anxious for you to jine us for Taint. I’m not speakin for my good, but for yourn; for men is skeerce and wreemen ts plenty ‘+ I said woman was tenderer than man, but you needn't feel stuck up about it, for so she ought to be; she was made soa purpose. But how was she made so? Where did she git it from? Why, she was created out of the side- bone of a man, and the side-bone of a man is like the side-bone of a turkey—the tenderest partof him. Therefore, as a woman has three side-bones, and a man has only one, of course she is three times as tender as a man is, and is in duty bound to repay that tenderness of which she robbed him. “And how did she rob him of his side-bone? Why, exactly as she robs his pockets now-a-days of his loose change —she took advantage of him when he was asleep. ‘* But as woman is more tender than man, =o is man more forgivener than woman, therefore I won't say sore ing more about the side-bone, or the small change. but invite you all to jine my train, for I'm a big sheahecd out our way, and fare sumptuously every day on purple and fine linen “When I first landed on the shores of the Great Salt Lake, I wasn’t rich in weemen, I had but one poor old yoe, but men is sheerce and weemen ts pleniy, and like a keerful shepherd I begin to increase my flock. Weemen heard of us and of our lovin’ ways, and the: kept a porin in. They come from the Nort and they come from the South, they come from the East and they come from the West, they come from Europe, they come from Aishey, and a few of ’em from Afrikey, and from bein’ the miserable owner of one old yoe, [ become the joyful shepherd of a mighty fi right smart sprinklin of lambs, fi fatter than anybody else’s. and I've still got room for a few more. -*As I said before, I’in not talkin’ pertickler for my benefit, but for yourn—for men is skeerce and weemen is plenty. Still, Pda little rather you'd go along with me than not, ickler you fat one with the caliker sun. innet. Don’t hesitate, but take the chance while you can get it, and I'll make you the bell-yoe of the flock. I'll lead you through green pastures and the high grass; show you where you may caper in the sunshine, and lay down in pleasant places; and, as you are in pretty good condition already, in course of time you shall be the fattest of the flock. Jine in, jine in; jine my train; jine it now; for men ts skeerce and weemen ts plenty.” The appeal was irresistible. At the last ac- count *‘the fat woman with the caliker sun- bonnet’’ had ‘‘jined in,’’ and two or three others were on the fence, with a decided lean- ing toward the “Keerful Shepherd.””—Cin- ennate Enquirer. ee Scenes 1x AN Excuse Cuvrca.—The riot- ous troubles at St. George’s-in-the-East, Lon- don, continue without change.
