CUBA.
The new from New Orlrans and Cuba lias
liccn very exciting for a week pasl. Accounts
from Now Orleans to tlio 2otli ult., state that
the riot lind produced the resignation of the
Spanish consul, and thnt before his departure he
had lcrt the Spanish residents under tho protec
ts, ) 4ion of the consuls of Great Britain and France.
A dispatch to th St. Louis Intelligencer,
dited Philadelphih, August 29th, stated that Lo
pez and his force were safely entrenched in the
hills hack of Havana, and that they were hourly
increasing In numbers.
, The New Orleans papers of the 23d ult.,
contain a number of letters written home bv
several of the fifty-two invaders who were taken
prisoners, and awaiting the hour of their execu-
tion. We select the following, from the Delta.
It contains a brief account of the circumstances
of their capture :
Letter from Adjutant R. C. Stafford,
Another of the Victims of Cuu an Cro ei.tv.
The gentleman to whom the following letter
was addressed, has, nt'our request, politely furn-

The Havana Tragedy.
A young gentlemar. of this city, who went
riassenirer to New Yolk ou ilm Ci.-i ukcu. !..!.-
pened to be in Havana on the day of he execu-
tion ol' the American prisoners: lie wrote lyjot urpi'ise, niortificution and indignation pre-
the Empire City a letter descriptive of the hor-i vailed among tl:e spectators, that there was no

them, as 1 knew a good many ycre'fruin Mo
bile, but. I could not get near, enough to recog
nize them," the soldiers -and citizens .were so
thick.' I was up within twenty steps of them
when they were shot. Their hands wci'e tied
behind, and they had to kneel, and were shot by
sections in the back.
Afterwards the soldiers marched in the same1
manner and run their bayonets through their
i. v i .... i .1 .i I i . 7L i .i
bodies and struck them on the head with their
muskeU. It was an awful sight, one that I
Khali never 'fore-el. After all was done, the
soldfers and citizens inarched into the city, ma
king a procession of several utiles, in length,
some with the caps, of the dead 'inert on poles,,
also tjieir shoes, parts of their clothing, cvc",
&c., as trophies, and in this way weitf through
the principal street of the city! I had left Uie
place m what they call a "volante," and drove
very fast, and went through another gate in time
to see the whole ailuir.
I do not think there weveo less than 1JU00 or
1,500 soldiers. 1 is very dangerous times for
Americans to go ashore, and the Americans in
the city advised u to get aboard as soon ns pos
sible, which I assure you T did in a hurry. I
never saw tufch an excitement in any city in my
me. iney insult utmost every American tney

did not give them a chance nt me. The Falcon

o One Day Later from Philadelphia!
SPANISH ACCOUNT NOT liELlKVED.
We take from yesterday evening's Intelli
gencer, the following dispatch from a privatecor-.
respondent. "
. t Philadelphia, Aug. 27.
. Nothing later than the news furnished yester
day has been received here .from Cuba. The
wires South are down. c
The Empire City will be tine in New' York
on Saturday, with Cuban news five days later.
' Tho Spanish accounts of tho late occurrences
are totally annihilated here, and are not believed
by any one.
New Orleans, Aug. 27.
The excitement upon Cuban all'airs is still
great, and no signs of any ubatement ; the prin
cipal streets, arc thronged with rioters, and the
property of Spaniards destroyed iij every direc
1 tion. The Spaniiji Consul has bi .::i 'burned ju
cfllgy, and in the meantime the authorities do
nothing to check the lawlessness uf the mob.
Philadelphia, Aug. 28.
Richmond papers 'state that Alfred U;nilet,of
Grayson county, having lately been murdered
by negroes, and John Clemens dangerously
wounded the citizens of Wythe have held ipcet
ings, und rest lved to expel from South-Western
Virginia ull pretended missionaries hailing from
tho Free Sates who liae preached abolition
doctrines. '
V. S. Revenue cutter Forward, Cant. Jonet
. has been ordered to cruizo olT the coast, to in
tercept any expedition which limy be lilting out
with hostile designs upon Culm.
The steamer City of Manchester sailed for
Liverpool this morning, with a valuable cargo
and 2tH), 000 in specie.
Tho friends of tho Cuban patriot held a
juccling ut lkdlituorc und another at Jersey city.
The meeting called at ' Washington was so
thinly attended that no organization was effect
ed. It is stated to-day, on the authority of a dis
patch from New Orleans, that the Spanish Con
sul has been killed j but it is generally doubted ;
he was burned in rfllgy on the night nf tho 23d.
Late last evening a private dispatch was re
ceived, stating that the Spanish Consul was not
killed, but has resigned his post and left for
Havana.
ItlOT AT NEW ORLEANS.
Mayor's Proclamation. We find the
Mayor's proclamation in regard to the riot, da
ted the 21st hist., 1 1 o'clock, r. m., published
in all the papers, but it is merely in the usual
form of such documents, and we will not occu
py space by copying it.
rThe following account of the riot is from
the Commercial JtuUelin of 22d hist :
The Riot. We are pained to be under the
necessity of chronicling an occurrence which is
perhaps .nnre rare in Ncv Orleans than any city
in the Union. Yesterday morning it was antic
ipated that an attack would be made upon the
ofhec of La Vii(r, a Spanish paper published
in the First Municipality; the grounds for this
expectation were, the intemperate and injudi
cious course pursued bv that paper durinir the
agitation of the Cuba question, which has been
occupying t fie public mind for some time past.
We have latterly prudent ially avoided any allu
sion to the articles which have appeared in that
sheet, because we did not choose to incur the
reproach of fanning the fiame of excitement, or
expediting a result which was sure to ensue
sooner or later; they, have, however, been most
1 Kingiy insuiiiiig, ana we cannot extenuate
11 t 1
them, but they have brought it upon themselves;
tor they luive exercised a license by indiscrimi
nately abusing individuals, and stie-matiziner them
with the most opprobrious terms, which even in
. , ,
about the streets. Thev took out the Dress bv
peace meal, which they carried about the streets
as trophies, first destroying the cases, tvpe, fur-
niture, fixtures, etc.

New Orleans' for a number oi years'. In the
early part of the Afternoon it assumed an ugly
aspect, and serious consequences were appre

Up u!lr.n "'at but few M the. 'Fillibustcrs'
were luirticinant in these outrages, and we
know that many of them condemned the violent
proceedings of the mob in the stroti'est terms.
No buildings were destroyed or even defaced,
and the destruction of property was inconside
rable. We have no apprehension of a revival
of the disturbance.
