The following has been addressed to the army | of the Island of Cuba: I Solpif.es—The enemy who dared to tread the | soil w. ich you defend, no longer exists. A few | days were sufficient for you to destroy them. These pirates, who scandalously attempt to H rest from us this most precious part of the Span | !-ii monarchy, have exalted the sentiment of | nationality already so strong in your bosoms, and | has made you superior, if possible, to what you I have >hown vourseives in other times. When I you saw yoitr flag contemned, and the honor of 1 four country attacked, nothing could resist your I bayonets —nothing repress your constancy. Las Pozas, La Candelaria, Rosario, places hitherto unknown, are now rendered memorable irom having witnessed you valor. You have made admirable marches, without stopping at the asperities of impassable sierras, or for the ar dor of the sun, or the fury of the tempest; and as those torrents which you have witnessed roll In no the mountains, so you have fallen upon the enemy, even to his annihilation. . Soldiers! I am satisfied with you. lathe name of the tiueen, I thank you. Jose pe la Concha. We perceive that a subscription is being raised fertile benefit of those men who assisted in de troving the invading party. Wo find the following card from Mr. Alemcn, editor of the late Union newspaper, in this city, in the Havana papers: • Gentlemen —Will you be kind enough to insert in the columns of your valuable journal the fol- Inllowiiig communication: The disorders committed in the city ol New Orleans, on the-21*t of August last, in conse quence of the false and calumnious statements published by the newspapers, instigated and sus tained by the fHibutteros , have compelled the un dersigned to seek an asylum in this city. The printing office of La Union was destroyed, I be ing barely able to save myself from becoming a victim to the unbridled fury of the multitude. Wn account of such an unexpected event, I ad dress myself to the gentlemen who have honor ed the subscription lists of La Union with their names, in order to explain in this manner the reasons which have occasioned the suspension of the pa[)er, beseeching at the same time those with whom I have not fulfilled my engagements, to await a change of circumstances, which will permit me in some manner to compty with my obligations. I hope that you will accept my sincere acknowledgments for the infinite benefits which you have conferred on the editor of La Union. Victohiaro Aleman. Havana, .dug. 5, 1851. In addition to he above, we have the follow ing memorandum from Mr. H. G. Summers, who I is one of those who left here with Gen. Lopez, j He arrived yesterday on the brig Tehuantepec, ; having been pardoned by the Spanish authorities in Havana. On landing at Morrillos the inhabitants met the expedition with a volley of musketry, which was returned. The inhabitants immediately fled and the Americans took possession of the roads. Lopez left Crittenden’s command to take charge of the liaggage, &c., and marched on to Las Po zas, twelve leagues distant, with three hundred and thirty men. He was attacked by the Spanisli troops and joined by Major Kelly's com- j mand. Crittenden had no communication with Lopez during this time. The fight at Las Pozas lasted about 2 hours. Col. Downman, Lieut. La buzan, the captain ofthe Cuban company, and other officers, were killed. Gen. Pragay and Capt. Gotsy were mortally wounded. Capt. Ellis was wounded, but was able to walk. The party stopped at this place for two days, after which they took up their line of march to the mountains. On the road they had several skirmishes, surprising small parties and taking provisions. Gen. Lopez behaved bravely on every occasion. Oh Sunday, the 17th, at the Capital del Frias, Gen. Lopez wassurpris ■ ed by a large body of cavalry, which he at first * mistook for patriots; when near the encamp | ment, however, they drew their sabres and came I down full tilt at a charge. When about one I hundred yards off, Lopez's troops fired on them, | killing fifteen and taking two prisoners. Lopez [ then retreated to the mountains, and was attack- I ed by six hundred infantry in ambush. They [ fired on the Americans just as they started across f the fields to gain a safe retreat. Three ofthe ex pedition were killed and several were wounded. The men liad been dropping off on the road , by degrees, and that night we mustered about , two hundred. They marched about the country | . until Thursday the 21st, in heavy rain. They i . were attacked by infantry and artillery. The ; most of the musketry and ammunition being wet, j and of little use, only twenty of the Americans could fire. The enemy were by this means kept at bay for a short time. Gen. Lopez cried out to the Cuban company to leave the field of battle, and that the Americans would hold the position. The General tied with the Cubans up the moun tain—the Americans retreating by degrees until they had rejoined him. Next morning the re mainder of the men had left the woods and marched towards San Cristobal. Being fired on ! by some cavalry there, they dispersed in every direction. Mr. Summers and Mr. F. B. Hough, went in to San Diego on the 21th, and gave themselves ! up to the officer in command there. At the same time the proclamation of the Captain General was received, granting quarter to such as would surrender. Mr. Summers and his hand were then ■ treated by the authorities with every kindness, | and they arrived at Havana on the 4th inst. The Captain General received them in a friendly spir it, and permitted them to be a liberty to roam about the city. There were one hundred and ninety-two Americans in the Punta, and they were to have sailed on the Bth for Spain. Among them was: Mr. Breedlove of this city. The prisoners speak i with resentment of certain individuals in this \ All the prisoners have had their heads shaved. Major Kelly and Col. Hainrs sailed in the brig Norma on Sunday last for New York. Mr. Van Vetchen went on board the Albany. MARRIED. In Troup county, Ga., on tho 2d inst., by Moses Altncn, Esq., Mr. James D. Hamric and Miss Susan A. Scoggin, both of Troup county. s. s.

Diod, at Bath, sth inst., Mrs. Bertkia Walker, of Burke, in tho 80th year of her age. Mrs. Walk er lived to sec the third generation of her children, and was tho honored representative of a large and most respectable family. She spent the evening of her life in tho bosom of this domestic circle, lovod and cherished not only as tho household mother, but as a “ mothor of Israel.” For moro than thirty years she has been a consistent Christian in tho communion of tho Presbyterian Church, and leaves a legacy of pure morality and genuine piety behind her. She was zealous without enthusiasm, hopeful without presumption —without pretensions a Christian. Tho conclusion of such a life was that predicted of tho just and upright, an “ end ofpoaco.” She has been gathered to her fathers, and wo may say: “Thou art gone to the grave, but wo will not de plore thee, Whoso God was thy ransom, thy guardian and guide, He gavo thco ; ho took thee; and ho will restore theo, And death has no sting, since tho Saviour has diod.” W. G. C. At his residence in Alfred, Alleghany county, N. Y., on the 27th of August, after an illness of six days, Mr. John B. Collins, in tho 57th yoar of his age. Comparatively sow dependents, like him, from an early age, entirely dependent on their own re sources, have over roaehed and maintained through life so high and influential a position in socioty as Dr. Collins. As a physician and surgeon ho stood in the highest reputo, and enjoyed, for thirty years, an extensive and lucrative practice. In tho politi cal arena, he stood forth as a fearless and efficient champion of what bo bolioved tho rights of tho pcoplo ; and whon called repoatedly to servo them in a legislative capacity, bo had tho rarefortuno to givo almost entire satisfaction to his constituents, and to oscapo in a great measure, tho shafts of ma lignity with which official characters are so apt to be assailed by thoir political opponents. Ho was also favorably known as tho advoeato of tho tompo raneo reformation, and other benevolent enter prises of the day. A widow, six children, and nu merous other relatives, remain to mourn tho sud den loss of a kind husband, an affectionate father, an amiable companion, and a faithful friend ; while the community ill which he resided the greater part of his life, has been deprived of one of its most distin guished and valuable members. “ Form, features, intellect, Were such as might at once command and win All hearts.

WE insert with pleasure, tho following letter from tho Conway Tool Company. It shows olcarlv that the faith of tho public in Rich’s Sala mander Safes has not been misplaced:— - Conway, Mass. July 14,1851. Messrs. Rolf, Stearns ®Co., successors to C. Rich A Co., 146 Water street, New York:—Gentlemen— To your inquiries respecting the fate of the Sala mander Safe, No. 3,38 L purchased of you through Messrs. Wm. Bryce A Co., it is perhaps sufficient to say, that I am at present writing on paper which was in tho Safe at the timo of tho destruction of our manufactory by firo, on tho morning of the 27th inst. Tho Safe was on tho lower floor of a throe story building, containing considerable quantities of seasoned beach timber, and it was at a red heat when it fell into a bed of live hard wood coals, in which it remained imbeddod about threo hours, when it was drawn out, and, as soon as practicable, opened. The lcathor bindings of tbo books were heated by tho steam, and somo of the loose papers were somewhat stained; but not a single partilo of paper in any book was injured, and not a single mark on any loose paper, whether made by a pon or pencil, is defaced. Wo consider tho Safe in question as having passed througli one of the se verest test to which it could have been put, and we need not assure you teat we rejoice at its aucce.«|. We will forward you the burnt Safe, and in the meantime, send us anothor of the same size and pattern, for immediate use. Yours, respectfully. Conway Tool Company— A. PARKER, Agent.
