Havana, for the last three days of August, had been a theatre of the most intemse excitement ever witnessed in the island of Cuba. On Saturday, the 30th ult , the news reached Havana of the capture of General Lopez’ and his forces; and never was news received with more joy and apparent satisfaction. It was a day of jubilee and rejoicing; in the evening the prin- cipal buildings in the city were illuminated, torcblight processions formed. &¢. ‘The next day, (Sunday,) which is generally a holiday there, was doubly so thea, in honor, as they said, of the victory of the Spanish troops, Guns were fired from morning to night. Shouts and vivas for Concha and the Queen were continually offered. Lopex ‘was shot in effigy in different parts of the town. He was dressed in the full uniform of a General, and wader his left arm was a game cock, and in bis right hand a pack of carda, The rabble amused themselves by shooting at the effigy all day. General Lopez was condemned to be garroted on Monday, the Ist of September. On Sunday morning the war steamers Pizarro and Isabella Catholica were despatched to Bahia Honda and Mariel, to bring up the troops preparatory to the execution. It was reported that the Pizarro had gone down for Lopez, but it was afterwards ascertained that he had been in the city all day, but was kept perfectly quiet, in order to prevent confusion. Late in the afternoon, the steamers Habanero, Almendares, Pizarro and Isabella Catholica, all arrived, loaded with troops, being the re- winder of those engaged in the several engagements with Lopez, They were marched to the Plaza de Hernas, where they were inspected by Conche, after which they retired to their rendezvous, completely exhausted and tired out, At half-past six o'clock, on the Ist of September, the troops were assembled at the place of execution, which was at the “Ponta,” at the entrance of the harbor, directly opposite the Moro, There were on the ground at the time 5,000 troops, (1,000 infantry and | 2,000 cavalry,) and about § 000 citizens. A few minutes before seven, Lopez wes brought forward, and ascended & platform, (about fifteen feet high.) on which was the chair of execution, He turned, and, facing the mul- titude assembled, addressed them with a short speech ; the conclusion of which (and his last words) was, “I di? for my beloved Cuba.’ Ile then took his yeat, the machine was adjusted, and at one turn of the serew his head dropped forward ; then all that remained of him who had 0 long been the terror and dread of the Cuban government was a cold, black, lifeless body. Ie evinced not the slightest trembling or fear—his step was proud and firm, and his voice clear and distinct, A few hisses and groans were heard from the crowd after the execution—save that, everything was orderly and quiet. ‘There were in Havana over one hundred prison (Lopes's men,) who are to be sent to Spain for ten years’ confinement ina dungeon. The remainder of the forces are eupposed to have perished from hunger and fatigue. From the report of the prisoners themselves, their sufferings before capture were intense—they say they lived several days on the leaves of trees, and the last meet they had was from the horse of General Lopes, which they killed and divided among themselves. Leper, when taken, was wandering sbout the country alone. There are various reports as to the manner of his arrest. Some say he was cap- tured by dogs. Another report is, that he went to @ farm house, and asked for something to eat, and permission to lay down, which was granted him ; he fell asleep, during which time, the owner of the place obtained the assistance of four men, who ound Lopez hand and foot, and then depatched a person tothe nearest rendezvous of troops, where he was made secure, The prisoners say that in no instance have the Creoles of the island{manifested the least disposition to join the invaders. Every action they had with the they were victorious. It was impossible for the Spanish Ge- tack, when he fell, mortally wounded; that event stop- ped the operations of the Spanish forces. Lopes hap- pened to know the country well, as he once owned an estate in the vicinity; he and bis men took up their march to the rugged heights. The Spaniards, after a while, followed him, guided by the country people and their dogs, who ferreted out Lopez’s men in the mo- rasses, guileys, and precipices, to which they fled to es- cape. Many were rescued thus from certain death, An order came from the Governor of Havana to give quar- , and to stop shooting the enemy; by this, one hun- dred and thirty bave escaped with their lives; the num- ber landed was 543. ‘The greatest enemies of the Lopez party were the country people. ‘The same spirit was shown by them as when the French invaded Spain—precisely the same feeling. Great decorum was observed at the execution of Lopez, notwithstandirg the excesses committed at New Orleans. The peosle of the island are aroused, and the same fate will be shared by further invaders whe may appear. It is not true that indignities were offered to the bo- dies of the fifty men who were shot here on the 16th | ultimo, Havana, September 1, 1851.

Lepez—The Conduct of the Creoles. seven o'clock, and publicly executed (garroted) at the Punta, at seven o'clock this morning Thus has ended this famous revolution in Cube. The Spaniards considered this island lost, The Creoles had, it was long understood, been waiting for such an expe- dition, te rise and shake off their allegiance to the crown of Spain. We have seen what they have done. and his five hundred men bave been sacrificed by the cowardice of there miserable wretches, who have de- ceived every tody. ‘I assure you the {government were under the greatest alarm and apprehensicn, because, as I enid before, they, as well as every body else, really and sincerely believed that the Creoles would have joined Lopez to s man. I consider that Spain is now more firmly seated in her power with regard to Cuba, than ever she was before, She knows now how completely she may tet at defiance the stupid “braggadocio” of these pusillanimous Creoles; and, junless Spain should become involved in a war with the United States, she may remain perfectly tranquil, so far as regards the Cubans ever obtaining their independence by their own endeavors. These dastardly Creoles invited Lopez and the unfortunate men to assist them to obtain their inde- pendence, and not one of them even attempted to join him. Lopez was surrounded by upwards of sir thousand Spanish troops, and, after holding out eighteen days, was eventually hunted through the mountains by blood-hounds, and fins y betrayed bya Creole. Do all in your power to prevent other expeditions leaving the states; and you cannot but do well in cautioning the public, and publishing to the world the dastardly conduct of these base wretches, the “ Creoles,” who, by their cowardly conduct and base promises, induced that handful of brave men to come on here, to their almost total destruction. About 140 are left to be sent, probably for life, to the quick- ilver mines in Spain. SPANISH OFFICIAL PUBLICATIONS. SKETCH OF THE LOPEZ EXPEDITION, BY ONE OF ITS MEMBEKs. His Excellency the Captain General has permitted the insertion, in the cflicisl gazette, of fhe following account of D. Francisco Alexander Lainé, one of those who com- prised the piratical expedition :— In the Plaza of Havana, August 90, 1951, the Ser.
