Pinto Garroted—Pinelo Banished— Cadalzo to be. imprisoned ten years—Great Excite ment in Havana. The U. S. M. Steamship Isabel, Capt. Rollins, called off Tybee yesterday after noon, and delivered over to the steamer Matemora, mails and passengers for this city. By her we received our usual favors from Key West and Havana, bringing down advice, to Sunday the 25th, just one week later than those brought by the Abbott Devereux. The most important news by ! this arrival is the execution of Pinto, the chief conspirator, and the disposition of the other prisoners. There was great ex citement in Havana in consequence, among the Spanish and Creole population alike.— It was feared even that, in spite of all pre caution, an outbreak would take place. To avoid contact with the people, the Captain General had retired tor a time from the city. According to the sentence of the Magis trates of the Audiencia, Pinto was garroted on Thursday, the 22d.

We know there are quite a number of our people who are such slow coaches that they are yet repeating what members of Congress from New England were in the habit of giving us with such obstinate and prosy intoration about ten years ago—that is, that all this Abolition nonsense is the “ work of a few fanatics who have too much good sense to carry things too far, and that ihsy have no idea of dissolving the Union.” It is a fact, we believe ourselves, that they have no idea of dissolving the Union, and all because their trust, in our capacity, for the endurance of kicks and cuffs is unbounded. And truly we do not wonder at this great security in which the Abolitionists are en joying the fine 'wpqrt they are furnished with in their plucking of Southern “ pig eons.” For it really seems that a great number of the patriots of the South have adjourned all quarrel with Abolitionism till some Yankee thief runs off with their own negroes. We ourselves have once been very warm upon the subject, but having sweated off after a pretty thorough course of fire- sating we are now enjoying all that devil- may-care unconcernedne-is of the fellow who said ho “ would not pump ” to ease the foundering ship, as he was only a passenger.
