Crittenden and uis comrades Feu will Tio doubt receive file of the Spanish pm pen but no dependence can be placed on a to statements a the government suppresses ter thing that would look like Lailure upon Teir Side while the most Success is mag sited into the grandest achievement. What Itse fitly men were doing among the Cayes a Here they were taken is a mystery nor could or learn Vav Hethel they were armed. Some supper that they were proceeding to a Village on tie coast nearer to Havana and that they run in among the Cayes to hide from the cruisers. Thev were 6rst seen by a Fisherman who made it known to the tort when the Ilab Anero was dispatched in Pursuit of them it is said she ran the boats Down and then picked up the men hut nothing can be Learned with certainty. No communication could be had with any of the prisoners and the authorities will disclose nothing but what will answer their purposes. The poor Fellows died bravely not a sigh nor s Ai Armur nor sign of tear was betrayed by any one of them. They were led out two at a tune Ami shot from behind. One line looking fellow we was the last shot while kneeling and await tag Bis turn calmly looked on Bis butchered companions it turning his head on one Side and then on the other As though be was Only a Spectator and then turned his Bead and looked his executioners in the face while they tired. He was shot six times before he fell. After the execution they were thrown into hearses by six or eight at a time and taken away and buried. About 20.000 spectators were assembled to witness this horrid spectacle. Many of them were negroes slaves and free and possessed themselves of the hats and hoots arid portions of the clothing and fixing them on Sticks marched through the streets with curses upon the a Filli Buskeros a the a pirates a ac., ac., a com pained with Vivas for the Captain general. That Lopez had been giving them trouble there is Little doubt and that there will be plenty of hard fighting before the end of the month every one in Havana believes. Jowa Legal first number of the above work was issued from the press yesterday and is now ready for delivery. The principal articles in the present number consist of a treatise on the new code judge me lanes opinion in the half Breed Case and chief Justice Williams in the Hummer Case. The balance of the matter is made up of dec sous in various cases. As an inducement to obtain for it Breun Toi a a Peoria rail Road meeting of directory. The directors met at Peoria of the 27th ult. The Engineer col. Morgan made a report of his labors so far As they have extended and a it on his suggestion the directors established the route from Peoria to Knoxville. The route designated w ill follow the old Grade for a distance of Tome six or even mile West of Peoria do blot by rail Road Grants and rail Road conventions. We would Call attention to the article from the Dubuque Tribune. It is Well for our citizens to see the speculations and understand the motives which Are prompting the efforts of different sections of the state. The Tribune though it does not evince a special hostility towards Burtington certainly betrays no marked Quot we a a Kicka of f0r her proper qty. How of a a re inv in a Allva Ivi line 4 1/ i i _ i i r j Valley in a direct line to Knoxville passing Midway Between Farmington and Bonfield. Pro kit Sals will be received until 1st of october for the grading of the Road from Knoxville eastward to the old Grade and it was stated by tie Engineer that the Road could be put in operation Between Knoxville and Peoria in twelve months frown the present time. It was also determined to put under contract the grading of the Road from this place to Knoxville on 1st of january next provided the further Sun of $50,000 a Hall be raised on this Side the River which will of course be done i Stanter. It was further stated by the Engineer that the whole Road from Burlington to Peoria could be put into operation in eighteen months from the present time. The Only thing then necessary to secure this result is the further subscription of $50,000�?to raise which will require but a few hours of Active Effort in a Community such As ours and whose interests Are so much identified with the Success of the Enterprise. It is taken for granted that there is not a business Man among us who is in the enjoyment of any degree of Public favor and patronage who will not lend a ready and a Liberal hand to the work. Property holders both in town and country will of course see their own interest too clearly to let the matter stand in doubt a single moment for the want of Effort at their hands. The prospects before us Are certainly most encouraging the time when the w Lii it Ile of the locomotive is to be Beard among us is fixed and fixed As All w ill gladly learn at a a Enod much earlier than the most sanguine had hoped for a and it is that All May know what is necessary to be done and that they May be prompt in doing it and not that we doubt their inclination that we Lay these facts before them. The $50,000 must be raised and this fact being known the sooner the work shall be accomplished the better will it be both for our credit and our beyond the professional ranks i we take prune ii state that such is the con several gentlemen have pledged them Elve to Tidence abroad in the practicability lot each number Abst acts of the Law of of the route and such the standing and credit promissory notes and Bills of Exchange and the Law of conveyancing of descents and of Keal estate a Well As of the Node Ami time of bringing suits in All our courts As regulated and modified by the new this department cannot fail to be highly useful and instructive to business men and ought to ensure the work a very general circulation.

This correspondence or that which purports to be such has Page and a embraces let Ler it from All the aspirants for the presidency As Well As Varia us Sage a a suggestions a from a Good Many other geniuses. The population of Burlington taken All together Corpre scuds a pretty sweeping acquaintance throughout All Iowa yet the Eye of Man so far As we can learn hath never seen said Leer nor ear Ever before heard it May represent Public sentiment at the North we Are not prepared to say but looking at the matter in the most favourable Light we cannot see that it is intended to give us anything More than a civil hearing and then hand us Over to the dreadful doom so Long predicted for us by All the paltry politicians whose vocation it has been to manufacture local a by slandering on citizens and by All the one horse a a cities in the state whose Only claim to notoriety consuls in their ridiculous pretensions. The Tribune very kindly suggests that the Call for the convention at Iowa City shall no longer be limited to the 16 counties now named but that All the counties in the state be invited to Send delegates. Doubtful and nobody cares whether they do or not especially if it is settled in Advance As would seem to be the Case that All the counties except the original 16 Are to be voted Down. In very truth the balance of the state need not care a Fig for the proposed convention or anything which that convention May do. It was gotten up in the spirit of selfishness its views Are local not general its schemes impractical i Clef its objects nefarious and its Hopes of Success based upon intrigue and not one fourth the population of the state will be represented in that convention not one fourth the he inese wealth or population of the state would be benefited by the Grants if obtained or by the roads if constructed. We take the High ground that the majority of in people should decide this Maciei a and we hold that they will decide it ultimately let and a scared up conventions As they May. A donation of lands is a very Uncertain event Ardler the very Best state of affairs and we consider it absolutely certain that no donation can be hoped Lor so Long As seven tenths of our people Are to be excluded from the Benefit of such donation. A Plau of Union of co pc ration has been tendered to All to so a plan which would be general and not partial in its benefits a plan which would accommodate the wants and promote the interests of the whole people of the slate and a plan which would require no More land to carry it Forward to successful i completion than the wild and hair brai Iier a scheme Winn is now on foot and which is projected the deserts and not through the Grain growing hog driving and cattle grazing portions of the stale. Of the managers 1 Chiel Cooks and bottle washers of the october convention shall adopt this plan Well Good a feeling will prevail throughout our Border and our delegation in Congress can in concert and with a Clear conscience and we May All look Forward with some degree of Hope. But without this Union without the Appeal shall be made in the name and for the Benefit of the whole people our delegation cannot with Unity or efficiency and would probably find it quite As expedient not to at All. Parso is supposed to have heard of Parson Brownlow. He is a preacher of the gospel Andes lit or of a sound whig paper in Knoxville Tennessee. He is equally expert in Tho pulpit at the hustings and in the editorial chair and we have heard it gently intimated that the Parson was a mighty ready Man with his hands in a fight. We know him to be one of the most free of Oken men in the country and we know too that when he has been assailed by persons who Felt themselves aggrieved by his Anima versions he has always defended himself with great a pint and Resolution and generally changed the face of the War by carrying it into the enemy a country. He averages about three fights a year but we Are not aware that he has Ever been the aggressor. In one instance a Ruffian attempted to Assa i Nale him commencing the attack with a big bludgeon and following it up with fire arms inks ac., hut the Parson got the better of him after a desperate struggle. Recently he was charged by a contemporary with having been convicted of a libel and fined $5. He admits the conviction and says the judge died a drunkard and the complainant a maniac. He goes on to state that the attorney general who sent the Bill of indictment before the grand jury was since disgraced in an affair of Honor with a High minded gentleman. One of the jurors died in the Woods drunk and hurried off to join the judge and Parson where parting is no More. A bother of these jurors was afterwards sent to the Penitentiary for three years for breaking into store after night a third left Carolina to avoid a prosecution for forgery while another left that stale to avoid an indictment for perjury.

In this City on saturday morning last after an illness of a ome three weeks. Every respect due to his High character and every kindness it due to the excellence of his nature were shown it him throughout his illness by a Large Circle of friends and acquaintances. He died in the Hope and Laititi in which he had lived. His funeral took place yesterday afternoon and was largely. Attended. He was it his 67th year. _ gov.

Taking a other morning there might have been seen on Sycamore Street two Young by Hoys from the country intently gazing at a sign in front of a Well known bathing establishment which read thus a warm cold and Salt Baths.

On the contrary they Are necessary to the preservation of health and therefore canned to make their appearance at the very Tim when the condition of the body operated upon by deteriorating cause not i was understood requires their grateful renovating Horton med. And sur. Jour. Burlington k Peoria bail Road. We yesterday gave account of the proceedings at the recent meeting of the directors of this company and of the encouragement its friends May reasonably feel both from the report of tie Engineer and the inducement extended to it by capitalists and dealers in Iron and of her requisites for its Early completion. The great importance of this Road to the future pros it Erity of our City is now too Well under Tood by All to require any additional from us. There is not a Man of business among us we presume that is not thoroughly convinced that the Iwu Piatt completion of this Road will secure to us advantages of Trade and travel far beyond prot tent computation. To such it May be unnecessary to say that the present moment is All important is. In truth Aeri tir in the history of Burlington. Delays Are at Ali time danger our in the establishment of new route for tie Trade and travel of a country increasing so rapidly As ours they Are doubly so. We should doubtless be cautious circumspect in our investigations of the probable results of any improvements we undertaken we should Endeavor to avoid any useless expenditure of our Means in useless and visionary speculations but when we have determined that a Public improvement will not Only pay but Asiu this Case is an absolute essential to the full measure of our growth and Prosperity it seems to us that we should at once a put our shoulders to the wheel and urge the matter to its earliest possible completion even at the expense of some present sacrifice Burlington and Des county have already subscribed liberally to this Road but both can and should at the present juncture do More. Liberal As we have been it is still our interest As it undoubtedly is an inclination to give it further assistance. The Only question is a to time it should be done at once. Our imme Diate Aid is now required. By ing promptly we May obtain the Road a year or two earlier than by waiting even so Short a period As a month. If any one will take the trouble to compute Bow much our City would increase within owe year after we shall have secured a direct rail Road communication with the East and the South How much greater our population would become How the the demand for All kinds of Trade of labor of machinery would expand with almost miraculous rapidity be will Hen be Able to say with something like certainty How very important it is that our subscriptions to the Stock of this Road should at once be ten died and that too in such form of would make them available now. Let All then be up and doing not merely because we would have Burlington always the first City in the state but also because we shall thus ensure our own highest and mgt it lasting interests. It a. From a latter Date Havana aug. 17, which a it ears in the St Louis Union of saturday some doubts seem to be entertained As to the coi Lect ass of the account Given by the cuban authorities of the execution of cot. Cut Truea on the 16th. The american coils a at Havana is severely censured for refusing to ask permission of the Captain general to visit the prisoners previous to the consummation of the fatal tragedy that he might convey their dying wishes to their Friend. Admiral by Utilio a Noble spaniard opposed their execution and advised their imprisonment until the difficulties were Over to be then conveyed to this country. The Spanish general Enna was reported on the 16th, surrounded by the forces of Lopez and by some that he was taken prisoner. One Hundred arid 1�tty americans were said to have been shot at Bahia Honda fifteen of them on the Spani a Steamer Pizarro in cold blood. From thirty to fifty wounded were detained on Board the Steamer Almendars whom it was proposed to cure and Send Home. Cedi Lily judge. Hon. Charles Mason who has been for last six or seven week in tie Eastern cities on business connected with the Peoria Oquawka rail Road company arrived at Home on saturday last and was yesterday duly qualified As judge of Des county. As judge Mason was one of the commissioners who prepared a a the code a we suppose that he will be Able to determine most of the perplexing questions which have been suggesting them elves to the Public since the August election to the entire satisfaction of All parties. Near Pittsburg aug. 16, 1851. Messes. Editor if i mistake not i took learn of you at Chicago and took leave of Chicago on wednesday evening on Tbs magnificent and new Steamer the Arctic. This is a boat As is a boat a a perfect Model All elegance Beauty swiftness and safety. She is not As la Geas some of the other boats on the Lake. There was a splendid band of music on Board and they discoursed some of their most delightful strains. A Beautiful Moon it Lake a soft and Balmy atmosphere pleasant company a Noble ship and a sumptuous supper All conspired to Render the trip across Lake Michigan a delightful one. Arrived at new Buffalo we took the cars for Detroit and after a ride of some sixteen hours including a break Down which detained us three hours with nobody Hurt and Little damage we arrived at the said City of Detroit. In crossing Michigan we passed through a Good Many Small towns none of them remarkable for Beauty or visible popularity. The trip on the m. C. Is not very Well calculated to impress a stranger with a favourable idea of that state. Indeed from a variety of circumstances among which is that of the Railroad conspirators have Given it rather a bad odor in other portions of the country. At Detroit my travelling companion g., left me for Buffalo in that Queen of steamers the Mayflower. The Keystone state was just leaving at the some time for Dunkirk. She is not inferior to any boat on the lakes. 1 spent a few hours in viewing the pity and was much pleased with its general appearance of elegance and activity. The travel through these cities gives them their great vitality. In the evening i left on the southerner for Cleveland and upon awaking in the morning after a pleasant night repose the Beautiful Forest City appeared in the distance. To All travellers who wish to see the most Beautiful City in the coun try i would say visit Cleveland. The hotels Art elegant and among them the american stands no. 1. I met on fellow townsman Crocker there and he took me in his Carriage All Over the City and out into the country. Y of May form some idea of the elegance of the place when i Tell Yon that Euclid Street for at least two Miles out is one succession of Park and palaces. The churches Are very Large and handsome and other buildings magnificent. If the i habitats of Burlington should generally see the Beauty of cute Leland for themselves they would lose no time it seems to me in setting out Shade and ornamental times anti in planting Flowers and shrubbery. In the Central portions of the City there Are some Beautiful Parks which Ald much to the attractiveness of the place. Burlington Mav be made As Beautiful As Cleveland. Ohio City on the opposite Side is quite a flourishing place of 5 or 6tek inhabitants. Both Cit a i will be United into one when it will contain above 30.060 people. With regret i left the Forrest City by Railroad to Ravenna thence by stage to Warren Thenee by Lanai packet to Beaver on the Ohio and am now on a Steamboat for Pittsburg. Variety is the a pice of life. We passed through from Cleveland the Western Reserve and it is a Beautiful portion of the state.
