Havaxa, March 26, 1856, The Late Ramon Pinto—Some Particulars of his Early History—Natere of his Intimacy with Concha—His Last Moment, dc. There are several facts in Ramon Pinte’s history besides those noble traite developed since his condemna- tion, which prove pot only his liberal sentiments bat his energy and indomitable independence of character. ‘The geners! opinion in Cuba is, that he was the ille- gitimate san of the Duke of Alagom, who was one of the favorites of Ferdinand VII. (father of the present Queen of Spain) and who distinguished Pinto by the affection which he lavished on him, and the care which he took of his educstion Pinto having been implicated im one of these political conspiracies of which Spain is so frequently ‘the theatre, was compelled to emigrate to Cubs at an early period of his life. On his way ont a French sail hove in sight, and as Spain was then at war with that nation, the captain ordered the passengers below. Pinte thinking this measure waa dictated by cowardice on the part of the captain, refused to obey, and himself gave orders to the sailors to clear ter action. He was seized and put in irons by the eaptain for this, and subse- quently condemned to death. He was, however, par- doned in consideration of the loyal metives that ac- tuated him, and afterwards won the full confidence and esteem of the captmin. Pinto was not of age when he arrived at Havana. In 1823.24 he took an active part ie the conspiracy fer the declaration of the indapenience of Cuba, known as los oles Bolivar—sona of Bolivar; and being arrested in Matanzas was sent te the castle of San Severino, On his way to the prison, surrounded by soldiers, he took from hls pocket a small trumpet and began to play upon it in mockery of his oppressors. ‘When the late revolutionary movement commenced in pain, Concha, who was on the most intimate terms with Pinto, communicated to him all his ideas and inten ‘tions in regard to it. When the former again became Captain General of Cubs he became anxious to re-posseas himself of documents that might one day rise evi- dence against him. Pinto, however, faithful to his publican creed, refused to let him have them, and it to this circumstance that is undoubtedly owing the ex- ecution of his semtence, opposed as it was ‘o the opi. nions of the highest legal authorities on the isiond. 1am happy to sey, however, that these letters are in safe hands and will shortly be given to the world, Ame. ricans will then see the real character of the man to whose rengtanes t least fifty of their countrymen have already fallen vi The circumstance ought never to {be forgotten that at the massacre of Crittenden a brutal negro kicked one of the corpses lying on the ground, A high spirited Spanish officer humenely repri- manded him for this outrage upon the dead. For this, Concha sent the officer back to Spain! About twelve o'clock on the night of Pinto’s execu- tion, Col. Munoz visited him and offered him his pardou upon conditions. Pinte indignantly refused them. Be- tween one and two on the same night, Brigadier General Bargos, formerly chief of the military commission, went to him with a on written out in full, on the condi- tion of his giving up the names of his assosiates. Pinto put it aside with this calm reply :—‘‘Tell the Captain- ae I am not afraid to 4i I wish to die with jonor. ‘The Prensa, ot Havana, (semi-official,) in its bulletin of Thursday ‘evening, the 22d inst., reporting the exe- cution of , BAYS — “It is now only three months since the man who has died on an ignominious scaffold before the whole popula- tion of this city, dressed in the shroud of the criminal and whose Ceey has been for several hours exposed to the eyes and the commiseration of that same public—it was only three months, we repeat, that this very man was esteemed and respected by the most select of the Havana society. He had a fortune of over 200,900 dol- lara; he was appreciated as a loyal son of Spain, in whose papel on the other side of the ocean, he was born; he was the father of six or seven children, some of them of a tender age; was favored by everything that can make @ man’s life pleasant; was about reachiag the sixtieth year of his age: had superior talenta and inde- fatigable energy of mind; in a word, he was poaseused of all that can bring happiness to & man’s declining years. First District Court, Before Judge Green. FINING A REFORMER FOR VIOLATION OF (&TY OR- DINANCRS. APRIL 2.—The Mayor, &c., of New York vs. Peter Cooper.—This action was brought to recover the penalty of $5 from Mr. Cooper, for permitting or suffering a car’ to be driven over and upon the sidewalk in front of his to the ordinance ip such case made and t the d the 26th day of Janvary last, had a store No. 17 Burling slip; that on that day there was a cart, having the name of defendant painted on it, backed on to the sidewalk in front of his store, the same being load ing from the store. On bis cross-examination by defendant’s counsel, the witness said that the gutter was so bridged as to aid the defendant’s carts in being backed on the sidewalk. The plaintiff’s counsel then read in evidence the ordinance in question. The defendant’s counsel then produced and offered to read in evidence a written permit, signed by the Mayor, in the following language:— Mayor’s Ormice, New Yor«, March 1, 1855. Peter Cooper has permission to receive amd deliver ipoeas from his store, 17 Burling alip, in the same mode eretofore adopted, which is deemed by mea lees encumbrance than the present mode. FERNANDO WOOD. The plaintiff's counsel objected to its being rad in evi- dence, on the ground that the fine had already accrued to the city when the permit wax signed, and the Mayor has no right to remit such fine. The ohjection was sustained by the Judge, who, at the same time, in- tumated that auch permission would not excuse the’ de- fendant in the commission of similar offences after the éate of the permit. He then ordered judgment against the defendant for $5 and costs, which the defendant im- mediately paid. ‘There were some twenty eight other cases for violating the Cc orporation ordinances, in encumbering the streets, &c.;and also four cases for dealing in secondhand articl without first having obtained licenses for that purpose The four latter cases were tried, in which the Judge ren- dered judgment against the defendant in each case, of $50 and costs. There were weral jud; ite ren- dered of $5, for encumbering the streets and sidewalks. A.most 4 Dvxt.—The St. Louis papers publish a cor- respondence which lately took place between Messrs B. Grantz Brown, editor of the &t. Louis Democrat, and Thomas C. Reynolds, United States District Attorney. ‘The quarsel grew out of an editorial article, in which the editor is charged with endorsing the statements of an anonymous correspondent, who accuses Mr. Reynolds of committing perjury.

Reynolda was informed of the arrangements, he ita- mediately sent another letter to the editor of the Demo. crat, stating that he was near sighted, and could not distinguish a man two hundred and forty feet from him, and wished bei eee lerdal he oe to twen- ty paces, there! e com! nts upon a more cual footing. ‘cdiftor would ‘not reduce the dh tance a foot, and the attorney was not disposed to fight with a man whom he could not see, and so the affair ended.

Adjournment of the Legislature—Mmost a Duel between | following notice ter general ta Conputeme Young America and Old Fogyilom—Closing Scenes of the Legislature—Nebraska Emigromt Agents—Snow Again, de. To-day closed the first session of the Nebranka Legis- lature, after a term of sixty days; and, upon's review of the laws passed and work done, they have not’ been idle. Both houses, by matual sgreement, adjourned’ at five o’clock—the Speakers, Mr. Hanscom of the House, and Mr. Sharpe of the Council, returning their sincere thanks to their reepective bodies for their indulgence and general gentlemanly deportm: and the houses in return, by resolution, complimenting them for the im- partial discharge of their respective duties. In the morning, owing to some vituperative expressions and abuse, there was a fair prospect of a resort to the code of honor between a young Virginian and an old fogy member of the Council from Michigen. The difficulty, aa nearas I could learn, arore froin the display of a spirit of bullying on the part of the senior, to which beg Reeves pesca, sy a friend, called upon im to settle the difficulty, Old fogy caved genteely— meant no harm—hoped they'd part as friends, &c. the matter waa ‘* honorably adjusted.” ‘The closing scenes were somewhat rich. A strong at- tempt was made to spring the question of an extension to Omaba City ited ones, through the House, but it signally |. A considera over mi- nor questions, crea te amusement forthe lobbies, was the order of things, In the ey ee of the session both houses passed resolution faring their postage was to be paid out of the contingent fund, and mem- bers ‘went it blind,” sending off papers, lette: documents on Uncle Sam’s account, but unfc the coatingeat fund had been for the purpose, and to-day in session they to fork over. The general desire to ‘‘lift’’ all the station- ery possiblo which has prevailed amongst the members during session, was carried to # ludicrous extent in the closing scenes, and when the stampede was efiected, so completely was everything packed up, that outeiders on a second foray could not find a particle, Before noon nearly every member had drawn his last copper from Uncle Sam’s pocket; and many, in squaring accounts, found legislation, poker and whiskey, not very rofitable. To am outsider, the closing scenes of the Rebracka Legislature reminded ove strongly of youthful exuberance on the *‘ last day of sch ool.’’ ‘Amongst the crowd of bills passed on the last day or so, and signed by the Governor, was one authorizing him to commission agents to travel and afford emigrants bound for Nebraska reliable information concerning the kame, Last nght commenced one of the hardest snow storms we have yet experienced in this section, and the proba- bility is that as usual it will retard the mails hither: ward, In places it now lies upon the ground some two or three fect Ap attempt was made in the hurry of busines# to- day to attach a Btrong antl-Know Nothing resolution to the entire enactments of the session, but finding it stood afair chance of going the same road of a former bill upon the subject, the mover suddenly withdrew it, Are British Officers Among Us? TO THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD. I observed in your paper of yesterday a para” graph recording the arrest of Mr. J. R. Bucknall, on suspicion of being a British officer engaged in recruiting men for the British government. As Mr. Bucknall is personally known to me, although comparatively a inthis couutry, truth and justice require my voluntary testimony in his behalf. I therefore beg leave to say—and shall thank you for the opportunity to express it—that Mr. Bucknall is not a British officer, but a civilengincer, as he has represented himself to nd hasin his porseasion certiticates to that effect from Sir John McNeil, and many distinguished profes- sional gentlemen, by whom he has been employed ia Kurope. For the past two or three years he has been engaged on several of our western roads, and but very lately in New Jersey. The story that he iss British officer is a stupid absurdity, and has had its origin either in the inspiration of an overanxious official, or is the result of malice. ‘The fact that he is a stranger, and perh such, without friends in Philadelphia, where I understand he in under arrest, induces me to ask your insertion of this contradiction. Mr. Bucknall, whose initials are T. R., ivstead of J. K,, isan Irishman by birtb, and, if I mis take not, one of the Young ireland party of 1848, It iv therefore ridiculous to puspect him of being evgaged in recruiting soldiers for the british government. I suppress my name from print, becanse I do not wish to be suspected of employing Mr. Bucknall’s misfor tune asa means of publishing myself. It is, neverthe- lees, at the service of those who have the right to ask for it A CIVIL ENGINEER. Pilot Boat Race.
