BAD NEWS FROM CUBA IF TRITE
LOPEZ SHOT.
15$ American Prisoners in hands of Government.
We received the following des
patch from New Orleans, dated 4th inst. We
sincerely hope the information may turn out un
true.
The steam ship Cherokee is coming up. A
despatch to the Picayune says that Lopez had
been captured, and was shot at Havana on the
Ist inst.
One hundred and titty five prisoners, mostly
Americans were in possession of the Govern
ment. All who left in the Pampero were killed
or made prisioners. *
The Insurgents still hold possession of the
mountains near Principe.

Washington. Sept. 1,1851.
The President held a cabinet meeting to-day
present all the members, except Messrs. Hall,
Crittenden and Webster.
I do not credit the story of the New York Ex
press that, on Saturday, the moment the Presi
dent arrived here, he sent otf orders to N. York
for the breaking up of illegal expeditions. It
would seem to be a mockery to defer orders of
this kind till after the departure of expeditions,
in every case. I perceive that the U. S. officers
in New York had such orders long ago; but, ac
cording to the New ,York Mirror, did not heed
them.
It is probable that some supplies have been
sent by the Cuban Junta in New York to the
eastern part of Cuba; and that some supplies and
reinforcements, have been sent from N. Orleans
and Kev West and Jacksonville.
The U. S. mail steamers to and from ports in
the Gulf of Mexico, have been permitted to arm,
in order to meet emergencies. If such a case as
that of the Falcon should again occur, there
may be a collision. The indignation ofibred to
the Spanish Consul at New Orleans may pro
voke retaliation. Yours, &t\. lon.

From a telegraphic dispatch received by the
agent in this city, we learn that the steamer Ma
rion arrived at her wharf in New-York, on Tues
day morning at 6 o'clock.
A reference to the report of the City Register,
in to-day's issue, will satisfy the most sceptical
as to the health of our city—the deattis during
the past week only amounting to fourteen , viz :
whites five, three of whom were adults and two
children; and negroes nine, four of whom were
adults and five children.— Ch. Courier, 4tli inet.
A letter from Sumter District, states that the
recent storm was not as sev ere as the one which
took place about the same period last year.— lb,

having to lay up for the purpose of receiving a
new shaft, will not leave this port on Saturday

Heavy Defalcation in Philadelphia.—
The Philadelphia Bank has discovered a deficit
of 5150,00 to 8200,000 in its books, owing to

sty The Ellis street Ice Company deeply re
grets the necessity they are under, of announc
ing to the citizens of Augusta, and their customers in
the up country, that their ICE has given out.
They made every exertion to have a sufficient
quantity to last the whole season, by ordering double
the amount, they havo ever ordered before, but
owing to the extreme heat of the weather, about
three-fourths of the quantity ordered, melted.
In July, discovering that they would not have
enough for the season, they ordered an extra cargo,
which did not arrive in Savannah until two day ago,
and in consequence of the low state of the river,
the Agent of tho Steamboat Company, says it is im
- possible to get it up.
The Company have for the last ten days been or
dering Ice from Charleston, at a loss of $lO dollars
a day, to keep up the supply until they could get
their cargo from Savannah, but finding it impossi
ble to have it brought up, they are compelled to
suspend the losing business of any longer supplying
the city with Ice from Charleston.

THE FIRE IN CONWAY, MASS.
WE insert with pleasure, the following letter
from the Conway Tool Company. It shows
clearly that the faith of the public in Rich's Sala- 1
mander Safes has not been misplaced:—
Conway, Mass. July 14,1851.
Messrs, ftoflj Stearns & Co., suoeessors to C. Rich
A C0.,-140 Water street, New York:—Gentlemen—
To your inquiries respecting the fate of the Sala
mander Safe, No. 3,381, purchased of you through
Messrs. Wm. Bryce & Co., it is perhaps sufficient”to
say, that I am at present writing on paper which
was in the Safe at the time of the destruction of our
manufactory by fire, on tho morning of the 27th
inst. Tho Safe was on the lower floor of a three
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 cools, in
which it remained imbedded about throe hours,
when it was drawn eut, and, as soon as practicable,
opened. The leather bindings of tho books were
heated by the steam, and sonio of the loose papers
were somewhat stained; but not a single partile of 1
paper in any book was injured, and not a single
mark on any loose paper, whethor made by a pen
or pencil, is defaced. We consider-the ‘Safo in
question as having passed through 4 ono of the se
verest test to which it could have been put, and we
need not assnro you teat we rejoice at its suoeess.
We will forward you tho burnt Safe, and in tho’
meantime, send us another of tho same size and
pattern, for immediate use.
Y'ours, respectfully.
Conway Tool PARKER,
Agent.
