I r TJte Vlrcinliu Sonic. That agitating feminine (ships are all shes) the steamer Virginius, has abruptly ended a *eiy bad complication by foundering at sea ©f her own accord. This ship has been the chief theme of comment for a level month. She has nearly put two nations at bloody *• loggerheads. She has caused the flow of SUasisrippian streams of ink and whetstone. Thousands of long columns of all kinds of comment have gushed daily. Diplomats have rolled the- precious morsel tenderly under their tongues. Sickles has shown himself a donkey thereby, and mil lions ditto. Caleb Cushing mounts to office Inconsequence. Old Robeson,the nation’s navy imbecile has spent millions in unneces sarily polishing up our dilapidated old ma rine. Grant and hi3 faction have sought to make partizan capital out of the thing. And to end it all the Virginius has dropped to the bottom at an opportune moment. We shall probably have some peace now. At which we are glad. The very ladies, God bless them, were beginning to grumble at a surfeit of the Virginius. Sliest in peace, old hulk. JKr. Steptocns on Civil Rights.

New York, December 30.—Lieutenant Commander Hazwell, executive officer of the Oesipec, says that the Ocaipee left the Tor- tugaa with the Virginias in tow on the morn ing of the 19th. Jast as already reported, they had fair weather until the afternoon of Saturday, the following day, when a gale 8prungnp. Sbo continued to have bad weather like that encountered by the Juniata and - the Virginius sig nalled that she was leaking badly. Captain Walters, commander of the Ossipee, therefore determined to shape his course for Charleston, South Carolina, but as they got into smoother water the Virginius behaved better and the water was kept oat of her fire room. On the morning of Christ mas Day, however, severe weather having continued, the Virginias was again leaking as badly as ever and the vessels put into Fry ing Pan Shoals, about ten miles south of Cape Fear Light, where smoother water could be obtained. Here the vessels came to anchor, Captain Walters hearing that the Virginius would ride out the gale. Before daylight next morning Commodore Woodrow signalled with lights that the Vlgiuius was leaking rapidly, with fires out andpnmps stopped, and that the crew wished to be taken off. A boat was lowered from the Ossipee at day-light, and by seven o’clock in the morning all on board the Virginias were transferred to the former vessel. As a heavy sea was running, the work of removing the crew was one of much danger and difficulty, and therefore no lives were risked in endeav oring to save their personal effects, or any other property on the Virginias. Her howser was cat, and buoys attached to mark her position in case sne sank out of sight The Ossipee remained at anchor during the day; and at a quarter past 4 o’clock p. il, the Vir ginias, which had been gradually settling, went to the bottom. She sank in eight fath oms water and her top masts remained above the surface. The Ossipee then resumed her voysge to this port Her supply of coal was ample, twenty-five tons still remaining on board. All on board of the Ossipee are well. She will proceed to tbe navy yard here to day or to-morrow after discharging her pow der. Captain Walters has made a written report, which will be forwarded to Washing ton at once. The released captives of the Virginia still remain at the Cuba Restaurant on Pine street and the aeene there this morning was one of great enthusiasm. Resolutions were adopted returning thanks to Captain Braine, of the Jnniata, for his kindness and expressing sympany with him in the loss of his son. It was also resolved that the ex-captives should attend the funeral of the child in a body. Some of the captives this morning were visited by personal fricndB and the meetings on these occasions were of the most affecting character. Manchester, N.
