By the stenmer Osceola, which arrived yester- day at Batabano from Truxillo, we have received letters that give us an account of the tragical end ofthe great fillbuster. We insert them below; bighly satisfac te note the Christian the celebrated filfbuster. it isa great that a man capable of such sentiments should bave led a life duriag which he caused so ameuy disasters to humanity. It fs not lcas satis- metcifully di eathorities of a eg eee ~ be: 4 couatry. of life conceded eoanaest in 3 is an eloguent demonstration of the nobie spirit which prevailed there, as is also the humane and genet- ous treatment shown tothe officers and soldiers of the expeditions The writers who daily inealt these countries—for which they cannot find thets sufficiently bard—may bere learn all that there is respectable and bonorable in the senti- ment: of which the authorities of Honduras have just given proct. Here are the letters: é Trvuitto, Sept. 15, 1960. Theecapture of Walker and some seventy indi- vidaals of his party having been effected by Gen. Alvarez, who with 200 men pursued them {n con- nection with the steamer Icarus. I am about to narrate to you, circumstantially the particulars of the entrance and execution of the chieftain. On the 5th inst , at the moment that Gen Godoy, with the auxiliary troop of Guatemala set sail with two vessels to join Gen. Alvarez, the schooner Correo came to anchor in the fort, brin; back the ex- pedition of Gen. Alvarez himself. ¢ Icarus re- mained behind from motives of convenience, bat she alsocame to asch uring the nigbt. The next day, at 4 o’clock inthe afiernoon, got lausehes (the very ones used by the invaders) were brought alongside of the steamer to receive the prisoners who came ashore under rd of the marinesof the Icarus. Upon disembarking, the marines marched first; the Hondureazo troops came next, marching in hollow square with Prisoners in the center. With the exception of a few filibusters, all the ay looked like c some of them apparent! a ithe last agonies. With their sad Jan looks they appeared to curse the leader who had 3 hem to such dire cateemities ‘Themarch at the entrance was siow and solemn. Walker, at the head of bi je, marched to the tap of the drum, and was the observed of all observers As soon 2s Walker entered the prison he was heavily ironed, and asked if he wanted anything. He only asked for water He then sent for t! chaplain of the port, and professing his faith asa Roman Catholic, he was seen thereafter almost constantly kneeling at the feet of the priest in front of a small altar, on which by the dim light of the tapers the image of Jesus was distingnished. Among other things he once said to the in, * Tam resigned to dle—my career is con- cluded.” On the 11th inst., at 7 o'clock p. m.Walker was notified of his sentence of death. To this startling intelligence the ouly reply he made was to ask at what hour it would be executed, and whether he bad time to write. On the 2th, at 5 o’clock a m., the culprit marebed to the place of execution, He walked with a crucifix in his hand, upon which he bent all kis regards, looking neither to the right hand nor to the left, but lis! ping plowsty fo the psalms which the priest recited in ear. He entered the hollow square formed by the soldie: to the place of execution, and there, full of cesig. nation, he pronounced the following words : ‘*T ama Roman Catholic. The war which I made upon Honduras, In accordance with the sugges- tions of some Ruatanoes, was unjust. Thos= who Sccompanied me are not to blame. I sloue am I ask pardon of the I receive ity. ee with resi nation—would that it may be for e good of ety.” Walker died with remerkable fortitude. His ains were placed in a tomb, and rest in peace ¢® perpetual example. One day after the execution of Walker, the Ame rican schooner John E. Taylor, with reinforce- ments and arms for the fillbusters, anchored in the port, but she soon disap) » having recognized the forces of the republican power. The imme- diate arrival of an American war steamer {s an- nounced; aud !t Is considered probable tuat other vessels, with reinforcements for the uuhappy ex- pedition will arrive, asthe promoters thereof tu the United States are ignorant of the fate of Walker. - TRUiLLo, Sept. 18, 1950. The band of marauders which buceaneer Walker commauded with the title of General having been captared, the Commander ef the port, D. Norberto Martinez, proceeded to try b: court marti«l Waiker and his second, F.A.R ler. The case was referred tothe chief of the restoring force, General D Mariano Alvarez, who after having heard the criminals in their own be- igebalf, sentenced the first to capital punishment, ~~ cas The'coudiion of the le the second to four years imprisonment, both ng satisfied with the sentence.
