The Cuban Question—Joint Recogni
tion ol Cuban Independence.
Our noon dispa'ches yesterday, though
they give us no additional news from the
scene of the massacre in Cuba, nor any
further intimations of the action contem
plated by the United States Government,
nevertheless have an important bearing
ou the Cuban question. The London
Times and the Telegraph, both leading
organs of English opinion, are unrescrv ed
in the declaration of their convictions as
to the right and duty of the United States
Government to put a stop to the out
rages and barbarities of the Cuban au
thorities. the Times intimating that the
United States would be justifiable m an
nexing Cuba in retaliation for the massa
cre of the Virgiuius prisoners.
The doctrine of the British Government
and press is. that it is the duty of all gov
ernments to protect the honor of its ilag
and the lives of its citizens, and it is in
the maintainanee and enforcement of this
privilege and duty of sovereignty that the
press of that country have looked to this
government to take prompt and effective
measures of retaliation for the insult to
its flag, and the barbarous, cold blooded
murder of its citizens taken on the \ ir-
ginius.
What the British Government and press
recognize as the right and duty of the
American Government in the premises,
the British Government has ever claimed
and exercised as its own just prerogative
and duty. It is for this reason that we
regard the dispatches in another column
as having an important bearing on the
Cuban question. By them it will be seen
that official confirmation has been re
ceived at Washington of the execution
cf fifty-seven of the Virginius prisoners
on the 12th instant, of ic/tum seventeen
mere British ml jests. These facts place
the two governments on the same footing
as regards their rights and duty to punish
the outrage which has revolted the civ il-
ized world. If the United States would
be justifiable in resorting to measures of
retaliation, if it is the sovereign duty of
this government to resort to the proper
measures to prevent the repetition of
such revolting euoimities. it is equally
the right and duty of the British Govern-
ment to do so.
Let, then, the United States and Eng
land. foremost among the civilized gov
ernment* of the world, unite in a prompt
recognition of the independence of Cuba,
as the most just, expcTjfcnt and effective
means, not only of solving tlje perplex
ing problem of Spanish relations, but of
putting an end to the bloody conflict so
long waged between an oppressed people
and a tyrannical and cruel Spanish cat—
pet-bag government.
A joint recognition of the indepen
dence of the Cuban people by the British
and United States Governments would
carry with it an irresistible moral power
and'influence. It would disarm all jeal
ousies. il would command the respect of
other governments, and would be a just
rebuke to the insolence and revolting
barbarity of the Cuban butchers.
Such a recognition would put a speedy
end io the bloody strife which has so
j long disgraced humanity in the Queen
of the Antilles.

-The
on tne Cuban
question, was closeted with him for an
hour, and explained the present state . of
the correspondence with the Spanish
Government, which, the President
subsequently said to the writer of
this dispatch, it would now be im
proper to make public, because of
the diplomatic usages and courtesies
which it was necessary to observe pend
ing the controversy: but in due time the
result would be announced. This Gov
ernment had thus far acted ou such facts
_ had reached it. and was now engaged in
collecting from all available sources fur
ther information concerning the capture
of the Virgiuius. and the partictilars at-
tending the revolting executions which fol
lowed that event. It was desirable that all
information should be of such a charac
ter as would leave no doubt whatever a-s
to its reliability. The propriety of this
course was too evident to require expla-
nation. , , . , .
The Government being careful m what
it is now doing, and what it may here
after do. to act upon facts and not upon
assumptions and unconfirmed reports, it
was essential that we should be prepared
to maintain our position. The President
said he had changed none of the views
heretofore expressed by him concern
ing the events in Cuba, but had
more than ever been confirmed
in them by the recent occurrences He
shared with the public their denunciation
of the capture on the high seas of a ves
sel sailing with regular clearance under
the United States flag, and the startling
events which so quickly followed, Spain
never having considered the Island of
Cuba in a state of war and there being no
proclamation by the United States
according belligerent rights to the
insurgents. The Yirgnqus regularly
cleared for tlic Isluiui of Cuba, and
had a right to' enter Havana or any
other open port of the Spanish posses
sions. This Government did not recog
nize any right on the part of Spain, in
the present state of affairs, to interfere
in any manner with our merchant ships
upon the seas, except in the usual right
in her own ports and within oue marine
league of the coast of any of her domin
ions. and of this fact she is aware. As a
matter of course, it is the determina
tion of this Government to protect
our citizens in all their rights and
to compel respect to the flag. The pres
ent naval preparations were with this
view, and not to initiate a war by the
President, that power being vested in
Congress, but to be prepared for all pos
sible cpptingencies. Congress would
meet two weeks from to-day. when every
thing in possession of the Executive De
partment relative to Cuban affairs would
be laid before that body, with such re
commendation as the occasion might
demand. To-morrow, he said, he .
would commence the preparation ■
of his message, but w ould defer that pas t !
relating to Cuban affsw. until within a
dav or two of the meeting of Congress,
desiring first to obtain all porsible infor
mation ujton the subject. During the
brief conversation, the President said he
should, in his message, again recommend
legislation on Utah affairs in order to re
lieve judicial matters in that .Territory
from their present embarrassment. He
would, in calling attention to finan
cial v . submit a plan not y et
fully matured, remlering the currency

THE CUBAX QUESTION.
Views of lion. Caleb Cushing on the Com.
plicatiou.
Sexatobs Semszk and Schckz.
Washington correspondent of the Balti
more Sun says it is understood m that
city that a feeling prevails pretty gener-
ahv among leading Republican Senators
to condone the offences of Senators Sum
mer and Schurz, aud receive them back
into full fellowship in tbs Republican
party, restoring them to their forcier
leading places on important committees,
and to full participation In the councils of
the party. It seems to be admitted, says
the writer, that since the collapse of the
third party project there is nothing left
for sueh gentlemen as Messrs. Sumner
and Schurz but a return to their old love.
With all their antecedents and with all
their feelings and instincts In opposition
to the old Democratic party, they are at
present in a state of apparent isolation.
How the two Senators will receive the
overtures which, it is supposed, will be
made to them, has not yet been ascer
tained. although th* impression in Repub
lican circles is that they will not be disin
clined to meet them at least half way,
As an overture to Grant Sumner should

lations *n.d emphasis, his great speech
on military presidents, nepotism, etc.
Washington, November 14.
Hon. Caleb Cushing, in the course of
conversation to-Jay. was asked what, in
his opinion, were the legal aspects of the
case of the Virginius. He replied that
the question was one capable of an easy
answer, saving, turn to your statute books
and you will find that the third section of
the act of July 27 th, 1868, an act
concerning the rights of American
citizens in foreign States, prescribes the
duty of the President in cases infringing
upon such rights. In fact you wouk^sup-
pose that this act had been passed with
special reference to such a case as that
now presented. Here the statute book
was produced and the section referred to
by Mr. Cushing was read. It it is as fol
lows:
“■Whenever it shall be made known to
the President that any citizen of the
United States has been unjustly deprived
of his liberty by or under the authority
of any foreign government it shall be the
duty of the President forthwith to demand
of that government the reasons for such
imprisonment, and if it appears to be
wrongful and in violation of the rights of
American citizenship, the President shall
forthwith demand the release of such
citizen, and if the release so demanded is
unreasonably delayed or refused, it shall
be the duty of the President to use such
means, not amounting to acts of war, as
he may think necessary and proper, to ob
tain or effectuate such release, and all the
facts and proceedings relative thereto
shall as soon as practicable, be communi
cated by the President to Congress.”
Mr. Cushing then remarked that this
act very clearly defined the course to be
pursued by the President in the premises,
and he entertained no doubt but that
everything relating to the subject would
be laid before Congress ou its assembling.
Pursuing the subject, Mr. Cushing said
that there were three very important,
points to be settled before any steps could
be taken by the Government of the Uni
ted States' First, the question of the
flag: second, the location of the vessel
when captured: third, her mission. All
vessels carry a flag of some kind, wheth
er they are rightfully entitled to the use
of the flag is another matter. But the
nationality of a vessel is governed by her
papers, which must correspond with her
flag, but neither the flag nor the papers
are to be accepted as conclusive evidence
of her nationality, as the admiralty
courfs frequently go back of both
in adjudicating prize cases. Respecting
the location of the vessel when captured,
this point is not difficult to be dealt with.
During the late w ar in the South the pri
vateer Florida, lying at anchor in a Bra
zilian harbor, was cut out by a vessel of
the United States and forcibly conveyed
to the waters or the Ugiied States. This
was an undoubted violation oi the sov
ereignty of Brazil, a friendly power. The
Government of the United States admit
ted this fact, and sent a vessel to Brazil
to salute the flag of that nation in a for
mal apology. The officer in command of
the offending vessel was suspended. After
the expiration of a compm;atively brief
period he was reinstated i ‘.mi the active
list and promoted. In the case now pre
sented, however, the question is compli
cated with the execution of the officers,
