'The Knoxville Strike.
The reader will have observed in Sat
urday’s telegrams that the Knoxville rail
way strike came to an end on that day by
the submission of the hands to the reduc
tion of wages proposed by the company.
This, the Knoxville Press and Herald
says, was effected through the laborious
intervention and good offices of a Knox
ville merchant, too modest to permit his
name to bo mentioned, etc., who worked
very hard,and a long time in persuadin'
tho men to listen to common sense. All
that is well enough to say, but in fact, it
■was the result of tho plain, overruling
necessities of tho case. It had to be, and
unless labor in the United States can
bring to its aid the wealth of the uni
verse, it has got to do the same thing
everywhere else. In truth, the wealth
•of the world could not provent it. unless
■the unions could work a miracle akin to
that in Canaan of Galilee, and recreate
the wealth as fast as it was gone. How
can anybody sell the products of labor
for less than the price of labor ? that* s
the question. And yet it has got to be
done, or the unions must abandon their
•arbitrary demands and accept for their
labor an equitable proportion of available
•prices for its products. The Knoxville
strikers had to knock under or do no
tutors railway work to the end of time at
any rate.
The compromise or adjustment effected
between the parties is clearly set forth in
•the following correspondence:
Knoxville, Tenh., Nov. 27,1873.

Dear Sib : On behalf of the engineers,
firemen, machinists and blacksmiths, for
the sake of settling the present unfortu
nate difference between the railroad au
thorities and their employes, thereby
clogging the wheels of commerce and
threatening disaster not only to those
.personally interested, but to the entire
community, we hereby agree to resume
work at the proposed reduction, provided
yon will guarantee to put our wages back
to the former price, just as soon as the
earnings of the road will justify you in
• doing so, or, in other words, the earnings
•of the road are equal to what they wSre
before the necessities compelled a reduc
tion. N. Long,

N. Long, J. H. Shepherd and S. IF. Blan
kenship :
Gentlemen—Your communication of
this date has been received, proposing on
behalf of the engineers, machinists,
blacksmiths -and firemen, to accept the
reduction of wages according to my order
dated October 30th.
This I accept in behalf of the Com
pany that I represent, and will employ as
many men as the interest of the Com
pany will justify. Joseph Jaques,
Vice-President.
This was all. "Work was renewed on
•'Saturday morning, and the accumulation
--of freights disposed of in the two days
following. All the demands of the com
pany were acceded to, and we don’t see
what other course was sensible, or even
possible, under the circumstances.
A curious circumstance is mentioned
in a Canadian paper of a boy named
Kingston, who recently lost his arm by a
'threshing machine at Adelaide. After
the limb had been amputated and buried
the boy complained that the hand was
cramped, causing him extreme pain, and
that if it was not disinterred he could
not recover. The limb was accordingly
•disinterred, and the hand found to be
firmly shut together. During the opera
tion of opening the hand the patient
■evinced great agony, and afterward de-
-claxed that he felt relieved from the sen
sation of cramp. The case is a strange
one, but we believe it is not without pre
cedent in medical annals.
■The late crushing lesson administered
•at the polls to the rotten Radical party,
moves even the New York Times to tell
its readers that the administration is “un
der a cloudthat the backpay business
•'has “injured us very much;” that the
hulk of the people hold the republican
party-responsible for the panic; that it is
“very glad the presidential election did
not happen to be held this year;” and,
that, “if Congress cannot do something
. ’toward placing our finances on a more
• .satisfactory basis, if it attempts the task
and fails, or muddles it, or leaves things
. no better than they are now, we (republi-
-cans) may as well say good-bye to our
power and influence.”
_• A writer in the Chicago Tribune re-
- ports that "George Eliot, whose maiden
Tin me was Marian Evans, and who is now
ihe wife of'George Henry Lewes, is very
shy by nature and rendered more so by the
peculiar circumstance of her marriage.
.What is the use of this sort of covert
■false statement? The person spoken of
os a woman of great genius, and it is un
worthy of her and her friends to tell any-
."thing but the truth respecting this sub
ject. She is not married to George Henry
Lewes, but lives with him without mar-
adage. ..
Slander.—The slander that since Sec
retary Eichardson’s shot-hag of silver
gave out he has determined to suspend
specie payments, was started by Tom
Smith, a Yankee tin peddler of Heading,
Mass. He is "to he punished with fine.
Eichardson will resume again as soon as
'the bag is filled up, and will keep on pay.
.ing specie in this way so long as a Treas
ury note is presented. A hundred dol

An!Appeal In Behalf of the
Little Ones,
The report that the “one session a day”
system in our public schools, was lost re
cently by a single vote only in the Board
of EducatJ#i, induces tho writer again to
recur to this subject, with increased earn
estness.
The present plan of consuming the
entire day, in vain attempts to hammer
into tho enfeebled brain of tho youthful
prisoner the abstract elements of the
sciences, ought to bo regarded absurd anil
injurious by every individual who re- reason,
members bis own childhood. If the ques
tion was asked, do you not consider the
halcyon hours of school-boy life the hap
piest of your existence, the answer would
be yes : the Saturdays and holidays.
The deponent has a feeling remem
brance of those mythical scholastic joys
it is the fashion to rave about, so far as
his own infancy is concerned. Almost
among his first recollections are the hor
rors of the school room in the ancient
town of Sunbury, now only known by its
beantiful site on the blue Atlantic, and
the storied traditions which cluster about
it. Our first masters were one Leonard,
a keen, remorseless down-easter, who was
both coward and tyrant, and Bev. A. T.
Holmes, formerly of this city. After
wards that genial and kind gentleman,
Dr. S. G. Hillyer, occupied the throne.
First impressions are bard to be ef
faced ; and how then can we cease to re
member that long, dismal apartment, and
its surroundings of mutilated desks,
smeared blackboards, antique globes, and
tough hickory switches. There a tender
stripling of six years he was incarcerated
day by day until the dusky shades of eve
put an end to his tortures.
Perched upon a villainous deal bench,
his legs dangling two feet from .the floor,
his oye3 wistfully scanning the green
common and twittering birds without,
his wits all gone wool gathering, misery
depicted in his face,Ted marks on his little
legs, and the neglected book lying before
him, is it wonderful that the scene is
burnt into his very soul? Hence the
tradition still extant in the family, that
this "petite miserable" invariably left
home weeping like a fountain, and al
ways paused to wash his face and cool his
eyes to efface the tears at the town pump,
which stood in full view of the academy.
It is an "o’er true tale.”
The reader, then, will understand why
we appear so often and persistently as
the champion of the little ones. -
Children are not men and must not be
measured by their standard. Animal
and physical life at that period predomi
nate largely in their existence. The
mind is an unwritten page, but the spir
its and muscular energies are then
in fullest play. Crush out or greatly de
press the latter, and the former in com
plete sympathy refuses to act: Who
does not know that the brightest child
when fatigued and discouraged by a pro
tracted recitation, loses interest, answers
pay. Oh, then they must get the worth
of their money out of the teacher. The
children, God help them, are never
thought of. One other objection only will
be mentioned, which we blush to record.
It is, that they wish their troublesome
brats kept out of sight and mischief as
they term it, l<y this quasi imprisonment
in school. Shame that any father or
mother should feel thus towards the
preenus children, with whose well-being
for time and eternity, they are charged.
With such, we cannot even essay to
Let them learn a lesson of
natural affection and tenderness from the
birds and tho brutes of the forest. ^
Want of space will not permit us to
dwell longer upon this question, which is
just now one of such practical importance
to our city and county. We do trust that
enough has been written to induce a
change in the present ail day school sys
tem, and thus afford unspeakable relief
to many indigent families, besides greatly
benefiting the children generally, both
mentally and physically. .

So if the freedom of the pupil he undu
ly curtailed; if his lessons are made to
assume the form of weary tasks; if his
mind is overtaxed, and he be denied the
recreations and sports of youth, a baleful
reaction is the result, and healthy prog
ress becomes estopped effectually.
Even in the utilitarian North, where
every thing is weighed by its value in
dollars and cents, and the teachers of pub
lic schools receive regular salaries and
contract to give all their time to their
employers, the system of teaching five or,
at most six hours only in one continuous
session, broken by a half hour’s recess,
obtains universally. Experience has
shown that it will not pay to do otherwise.
Education is the work in hand, and that
it has been found can be best promo
ted by affording sufficient time for relax
ation to the "young idea ”
We were not a little struck recently by
the experience on this head, of a veteran
educator of youth. One who ha3 grown
gray in the service, and stands second to
no one in the State for his erudition,
fidelity and success in teaching. Says
this venerable witness: “When I first
began my career in the town of
Under Wliich General?
Forney complains in his Press that the
old field officer, " General Apathy,” took
command of the Eadical squadrons in the
late elections, and made a bad case of it.
Harper’s Weekly asserts on the other
hand that "General Indignation” was at
the head of the Eepublican column—in
dignation at the salary-grab, Credit Mo-
bilier, etc.,—indignation over the frauds
or that so few got a hand in them—the
Journal of- Civilization don’t say which
way. The Post says: "General Discon
tent,” "General Discord” and ‘General
Dissatisfaction ” were the unlucky trio
who led the hosts to defeat and death.
The Albany Journal says that "Gene
ral Suspension” is personally and'offici
ally responsible for the disasters of last
Tuesday—while the Sun, the World, the
Herald and other papers attribute the
whole to “General Eottenness,” who, they
are well assured, has held supreme com
mand of the Grantite fories for years past.

many friends and relatives in our midst.

the successor of a famous martinet who
was noted for his ability to break-in
reprobate bovs, I found that the custom
of the school was to begin recitations at
or abont sunrise, and continue the exer
cises, with two hours intermission at noon
only, until it was too dark for tho pupils
to see their hooks. This I continued for
three years, until frilly satisfied of the
folly of the system. At the expiration of
that period, procuring a lease of the
academy for ten years and a lot of land
on the premises, I built a borne and
abandoned this ruinous method of over
taxing and exhausting the mental and
physical energies of my pupils.
This gentleman now teaches six hoars
per diem, and is an earnest advocate of
one session, on the ground that the men
tal discipline and habits of study of his
pupils, are sadly broken into by the noon
interruption.
In a previous article we have fully
argued the importance of, one session in
the public schools, if we hope to moke
them what they were designed to be, a
blessing to the poor. Those parents who
have large families to maintain and are
dependent for a support upon their per
sonal labor, must have assistance from
their offspring. Much as they may feel
concerned for their mental progress and
wish to see them succeed in life, the
bread questicttis paramount to all others
And the sad, overworked mother, too,
how can she dispense wholly, with the
services of her strong and healthy daught
er, when the clothes most be made and
mended, and the cooking and washing
done for papa and the little ones. Yet she
mast do this, if soon after the rising of
the winter’s son, that child is hurried off
to school and confined there until the
shades of evening. This two session regu
lation, therefore, practically rules out
many of the neediest families from the
benefits of free education, while if it was
abandoned, and five or six bonrs in the
early part of the day only, set apart for
school exercises, the child could well nigh
accomplish all of its chores at home, and
be benefitted both in mind and body at
the same time, by the blending of pbysi
cal and mental labor.
Bat why reiterate these truths which
are almost axiomatic ? We fear the chief
objections to the proposed reform are to
be found first in the grievous ignorance
of parents, who suppose that the minds of
children like the muscles of stalwart
Laborers, can be subjected to constant
tension from ten to twelve hours every
j, day without injury. And this is especially
| the case when they have tuition bills to
proper care on the part of the sick, the
disease will most probably be at an end.
Georgia and the Centennial.
From the Philadelphia Press, of the 6thJ
Tuesday evening last, the gentlemen
appointed by tbe Centennial Commission
of tbe United States, to visit the great
State of Georgia during the session of
the late annual Fair at Macon, returned
to Philadelphia, and made - verbal report
to the commissioners in session at their
rooms, 904 Walnut street. Their object
was to holdfriendly intercourse with their
fellow-citizens of the South, always pres
ent in great numbers at this annual autum
nal reunion, and they were received with
marked and significant enthusiasm. The
attendance at the fair was immense, and
the display of the products of the earth,
and of the ingenuity of man, in many re
spects extraordinary. The delegation
representing the United States Commis
sion was composed of Hon. Daniel M.
Fox, chairman; Hon. James H. Camp
bell (in place of Hon. William Big
ler, detained Dy indisposition,) Geo.
F. Lee, Esq., Thomas E. Fox,
Esq., Horace J. Smith, Esq., J. H. Zeilin,
Esq., General C. B. Norton (secretary),
and they were joined at Macon by ex-
Governor Bobert M. Patton, member of
the Centennial Commission from Ala
bama, who participated in their recep
tion, and contributed much to the success
of their efforts. Governor Smith, of Geor
gia, erreeted them with a distinguished
welcome, and hailed them as the messen
gers of a genuine reconciliation. In fact,
n.ll parties and oects,including the ladies,
who were gathered from all parts of the
State, joined in the greeting, which was
fittingly acknowledged by ex-Mayor Fox
and Major Campbell. The visit and its
results indicate that the heart of the
South beats in Bincere response to the
celebration of the Centennial of American
liberty, and that a splendid representa
tion of that section may be expected. It
is unnecessary to suggest a generous and
continuous response to this good feeling,
or that any effort should be made to cul
tivate and* increase it, for that has been
the example of the Centennial Commis
sion from the beginning.
The “Scant Effect” Fashion.
‘M. H. B.,” the New York correspon
dent of the St. Louis Eepublican, writes
that the “extremest phase of the scant
effect was reached by a lady who walked
up Fifth avenue in a navy-blue camel’s-
hair dress. Not a pucker or a visible Beam
ora particle of trimming broke up the
beautiful surface of that woman. She

A Constitutional Convention.—Un
der this head the Chronicle and Sentinel
has the following : ; >'
Since 1870 a numbea of the daily and
weekly journals of Georgia have been
calling 'for a State Convention, in order
that a new Constitution might be frAmed
and submitted to the people for ratifica
tion. Eecently the politicians .have
caught up the cry, and the subject is
being vigorously agitated in certain sec
tions. For our own part we - desire a
Convention called, principally that the
capital question may be fairly and
firmly, settled. We do not believe that
a majority of the people of Georgia wish
the capital of the State located in At
lanta. We do believe that a majorify of
the people of the State are in avor of
transferring the' seat of government to
Milledgeville, where it rightfully be
longs. The section of the Constitution
removing it to Atlanta was rammed down
our throats, along with relief, homesteads,
and the good features of the Constitution
of 1868. - At the next election we wish
the question put separate and distinct, ir.
order that the real wish of the people may
be ascertained. Biennial sessions of the
Legislature should also bp provided for,
as the State cannot afford the expense of
annual sessions, accomplishing, as they
do, so little of good. By all meaAs let
the Legislature in January put the ques
tion to the people, Convention or no Con
vention?

The Covington Enquirer says a Jasper
county boy who could’nt find a place to

places for less than that—Sprawl’s for
instance.
The Cuthbert Appeal says on last
Tuesday a very desirable plantation of
over 900 acres, was sold at sheriff sale,

were worth three times as much as the

Outrage on a Conductor.—A few
nights since, says the Borne Commercial,
Conductor West, of the Selma, Borne
and Dalton road, had some of his effects
stolen from him, and as it was certain
that one of the three negroes in his em
ployment had stolen the things, and he
could not ascertain which, he told them
he would hold them all accountable.
Upon this, one of tbe negroes, Lawson
Shropshire, jumped up, gathered a lock
and chain near at hand and struck the
conductors severe blow on the head.
Mr. West put his hand behind him and
drew his pistol, when the negro struck
him another blow, cutting his head
dreadfully, and snatching the pistol
jumped from the train. The affair took
place near Silver creek, six miles from
Borne. A warrant has been issued for
the arrest of the negro.
The Borne Courier says Mr. B. W.
Whitehead, of Polk county, ginned 485
pounds of lint from 1084 pounds of seed
cotton, and wants to know if anybody can
beat it.
The editor of the Washington Gazette,
who spent a day or two at tbe State Fair,
gives his opinion of it as follows
We must state, right here, that we do
not pretend to give anything like a de
tailed account of this truly wonderful
hibition. Had we spent a week on tbe
grounds and labored diligently to note
and give an account of the articles on ex
hibition, we would surely have failed to
do justice to each and every department.
We can only say that, in our opinion, no
such grand display of agricultural, me
chanical, mineral and domestic produc
tions has ever been seen in thi3 country.
While other State Fairs may have sur
passed this in some particular branch,
taken as a whole our late Fair has never
been equaled. And it should be a matter
of pride to every Georgian to know that
almost the entire exhibition was made of
tbe productions of his own State, grow
ing from her own soil, dug from her own
mines or produced by the hands of her
own citizens. It is true that there was
live stock, and mechanical implements,
and products of various kinds from all
sections, but the principal part of the ex
hibition, especially of the purely agricul
tural and mineral portion, was entirely
Georgian.
En route to the Fair he traveled with a
very loving couple whose “carryings-on”
seem to have aggravated him, since he
puts them in print as follows:
Amongst the few passengers aboard
there was a youthful couple, a fair-haired
and bashful young man and a good look
ing young woman with sorrel hair and a
great deal of it They were very affec
tionate. The young man would occasion
ally, indeed very frequently, wind his arm
around her neck and clasping her tight
draw her to his manly bosom. She seemed
to be very easy to draw. He would then
rub his fair young brow amidst her
tawney, we mean her golden locks, and
in the sweet embrace their lips would
meet in a fond kiss. Then he would re
lease her andglancedefiantlyaroundat us
as we sat near by. We pretended not to
see them, and we felt lonesome. We
hope they were married.

Outrageous Attempt at Eape.—The
last Covington Enterprise saysi
A negro boy about 18 years old, was
brought to Covington on Monday, charged
with having attempted to commit un out
rage up<5n the person of a married woman
living near the railroad bridge, on Alcova
river, last-Sunday evening. The negro
is known by the name of George Simins,
and was employed as a hand on the rail
road. The lady was returning to her
home in company with her little boy,
When the villain attacked her and threw
the ohild down an embankment, bruising
its hea^l severely, The cries of the fright
ened woman brought to her relief a neigh
bor living near by; whan the black de
mon saw that he was defeated and relief
forth’e woman at hand, he loosed his vic
tim and fled, having chinked her se
verely. He was arrested, tried before a
Justice’s Court, and bound over in a bond
of $1,000 to a spear at f’n next session of
tho Superior Co'irfc. Not being r.ble to
give the bond required, he was sent to
jail, where he now remains.
The Columbus Sun says last year
thongh all the teachers in the negro
school in that city, are of that color, and
tuition costs nothing, numbers of negroes
refused to send their children there, not
because the teachers were hot competent,
but because the principal, a well educated
colored man, chose to support and vote
for Greeley; and they have not yet got
ten over this feeling.

made yesterday:

Handsome Present to an Episcopal
Church.—The Chronicle and Sentinel of
Sunday say3 Miss Louise King, of Au

cloth and three elegant panels for the
altar screen. The altar cloth is of crim
son plush, bordered with deep yellow
silk fringe. In front is the inscription
" In Bemembrance of Me ” in old Eng
lish letters, embroidered with gold floss
silk. On each side of tho inscription are
two Maltese crosses, also embroidered
with silk. Tho embroidery was all done
by Miss King, and is exceedingly beauti-
fuL The entire altar cloth is very hand
some and reflects much credit upon the
donor. The screen panels are blue, the
one on the left bearing the inscription
“I Am the Bread of Life,” and that on
the* right “I Am the Trua^jMue,” in
gold letters, old English style. The
centre panel bears a cross surmounted by
a crown, also of gold.

ton Herald, Dr. A. C. Mi r 2dlebrooks, and
a Mr. Freeman, of “The Bock,” indulged’

resulted in the latter’s being shot in the
breast. Since the shooting the grand
jury of the county have found true hills
against Dr. M. for shooting at another,
compounding a felony, misdemeanor in
keeping a tippling house open on Sunday,
misdemeanor in selling whisky to a
drunken man, and retailing liquor with

Cultivating' Poor Lands.
Butler, November 7,1873. ■
Editors Telegraph and Messenger: Mr;.
Herbert Fielder in his late communica
tion to your paper respecting the deplor
able condition of the agricultural inter
ests has truly indicated the causes of our
trouble and the remedies therefor.
It is safe to say, that under tho pres,
ent thriftless and inefficient ho-system of
cultivation, from one-half to three-fourths,
of the land annually under the plow in
this State, does not pay the cost of culti
vation. The question naturally comes,
in here, as to why farmers will continue
from year to year to cultivate snch lands.
I apprehend the reply to be he, that they
do not know what their loss or gain is as
respects any particular crop, or field of
land. The merchant, the manufacturer
or artisan can readily toll the cost of his
goods or wares, and so after sale, tell
what his profits are. How many
families in this State can toll the
cost of his crop or crops, or hia profits or
loss in the production of the same ? The
share system of hiring labor is ohiefly to
blame for this condition of things. The
farmer who thus hires his labor limits bis
ot>erations only by tbe number of hands
he can employ; plants all his old' broom
straw and old pine fields, which a mo
ment’s reflection would deter him from
doing. Should he remember that he can
not reasonably hope to get a greater yield
per acre therefrom with his. share bands,
than from hands hired for moneyed
wages, it would never once enter his
head to plant snch land with the latter
class of laborers. He fails to remember
that if such land does not yield a profit
he will be the loser; that his share hands
will be as well off at Christmas as thpy
were in January, although they may not
have a dollar in their pockets. If any
farmer could be made to see at tbe end of
the year that he had lost ten, twenty
or. other large per cent, upon his
year’s operations ho would be slow to
,. n , . —, , . . . ! again invest in the same venture. There
over the Central Bead is now transport- ?*^ rule( no oWrve <l by the
ed owing to tbe hard times, though the
through cotton exceeds that of last year.
The Sun also says on the authority of
private telegrams that new yellow fever
cases are reported in Montgomery, and
that it is still unsafe for absentees to re
turn.
We clip the following from the Hous
ton Home Journal, of Saturday:
Probable Homicide at Henderson.—
Yesterday evening a dispute arose be
tween Mr. Ferny Pool and some of his
employes, (luring which NelsCn McGehee,
a freedman, struck him on the bead with
mass of our fanners in tueir farming op
erations, and there must be a revolution
of. the whole business before there can
be any general prosperity among the
farming class. The hereditary contempt
for personal labor must pass away, and
those who look to us for example must
find in us thrift, energy and economy,
and a return to red leather shoes and
common sense, and a total abandonment
of the false pride and shoddy which rules
in the “big bouse” and in the cabin.

CAPTURE OF THE YIRGINIUS.
Position of the U. S. Government on
the Questions Involved.
Washington, November 8.—Tbe cap
ture of the Virginius was made under the
decree of the Captain-General of 1869.
One of its articles provided that on the
high seas, contiguous to those of the
Island, the Spanish cruizers were to con
fine themselves in the pursuit of such
vessels as might be denounced. But in
consequence of the strong protest of the
Secretary of State the Captain-General
said that, in view of the determination
adopted by the government of the United
States, and in order, at the same time to
relieve legitimate commerce from all un
necessary interference, he had concluded
to modify the decree, omitting this ob
jectionable article from it. The Secreta
ry, in his opposition to. the deciee, said
tho treaty of 1795 authorizes nothing but
the inspection of’ the passports of the
vessels of trade met with, while the arti
cle alluded to contemplated a search as
to the character of the vessel, beyond the
limitation by treaty.
But it would appear from the informa
tion received by the Department that the
Virginius was captured six miles from
the Jamaica coast, in accordance with
the article which the Captain-General
had withdrawn.
No new facts in relation to the Virgin
ius have transpired to-day. The Depart
ment of State and Minister Sickles are in
telegraphic correspondence on the sub
ject.
The Spanish Government claims that
it acted in good faith, by asking a delay
of punishment on the nassengers and
crew of that vessel, and regrets its tele
gram was not received from Cuba before
the execution took place. The difficulfy
seems to be the inefficiency of that Gov
ernment to control affairs in Cuba, in
this as well as other matters.
Our government is engaged in the
effort to stay proceedings as to the re
mainder of those on board the Virginius,
until all the facts can be fully ascer
tained.
The Secretary of State has sent in
structions to both Minister Sickles, at
Madrid, and Consul General Hall, at
Havana, to telegraph all the facts in re
gard to the capture of the Virginius and
the execution of parties on board that
vessel, but Mr. Hall replies that there is
some interruption of the telegraph line
between Havana and Santiago de Cuba,
and as yet be bas been unable to learn
any particulars.
A dispatch from Sickles says the
Madrid government had no information
of the execution until after it had oc
curred. Mr. Hall informs the secretary
that he has taken the necessary steps to
learn the particulars, and will communi
cate them to the department immedi
ately after they are received.
The only information the Government
now ha3 is the fact that the Virginias
was captured and several persons on her
executed; but as to in what waters, or
under what circumstances the vessel was
captured no information has been re
ceived.
Until these facts are known officially
the government will take no action in the
matter. The question being a very de
liberate one it is not the intention of our
authorities to take any steps which can
not be maintained under the law of na
tions.
* The Spanish gunboat Tornado had a
right to overhaul the Virginius if she
was caught in an illegitimate act within
three miles of the Santiago de Cuba shore.
On.the other hand, if the Virginius were
caught in. an illegitimate act within the
prescribed distance and attempted to get
away the question whether the Tornado
had a right to chase her beyond the dis
tance of 6 miles from the shore is undecid
ed. Some writers on international law hav
ing contended that a vessel caught in an
illegitimate act without the three miles,
may be chased and overhauled on the
high seas within the distance of six miles
from, shore.
Again, if the vessel was captured with
in three miles of the coast of Jamacia, as
has been stated, the matter will be no
ticed by the English Government.
Our government is not satisfied that
the Virginius is entitled, to the pro
tection of the United States. It is true
she sailed from New York under an Amer
ican register; but it has been charged
that she was sold to Quesada some
fifteen months ago at Curacoa and since
that time has been sailing under both
the Cuban and Venezuelan flags, and if
that charge should turn out true, she
cannot receive the protection of our gov
ernment. ,
Hence no action w 11 be taken- towards
protecting the vessel until all the above
questions have been decided.
New York, November 9.—At a mass
meeting of Cubans, held to-day, William
Cisneros, President, patriotic addresses
were made and a resolution adopted to
call for means to furnish out a new expe
dition to the island. A committee were
appointed to solicit subscriptions. The
Sun subscribed $2,000, and subscriptions
from those present amounted to $300.
Tbe Cuban, junta in this city announces
that all means possible will be used to
form an expedition to set out to Cuba to
take revenge for tbe execution of the pa
triots seized on the Virginius.
A corps is being formed composed of
Americans alone to proceed to Cuba, and
already 2,000 names have been put on
the roll, many of them old and well-tried
soldiers.
' General Quesada is forming another
expedition, and it is said 3,000 names are
enrolled, the majority of them Cubans
and exiles.
The Cuban bureau is thronged nearly
all the time.
The various charitable associations of
Brooklyn and New York are actively pre
paring to meet the increased demands
which will be made. on their resources
during the coming, winter.
The annual convention of the Methodist
Bishops for the purpose of laying out the
work of the church for the year, com
menced its session yesterday at Newark.
Many Bishops Were present. Appoint
ments will be made to-day.
A dispatch from‘Havana to' a Spanish
paper says five-Cubans webe shot at San
tiago de Cuba On the 5th. One was Santa
Bcsa who was imprisoned 'in Havana
last summer and whose release was ob
tained through the intercession of Secre
tary Fish.
Intelligence was received'at the Anchor
Line office that the steamer Ismailia was
passed off the coast of Nova Scotia on the
22d of October disabled and under sail. She
was out of coal and provisions, which were
supplied by a passing vessef
Six hundred men were discharged yes
terday from the Brooklyn Navy-yard. It
is reported another discharge will take
place on the 15th.
Miguel de Aladama, a well known Cu
ban patriot, has subscribed $10,000 to
wards a new expedition for Cuba, and
will give $10,000 more next week.
The following telegram was received
by a prominent Cuban of tbis city from a
gentleman of standing in "Washington:
" A telegram has. just arrived at the
State Department from Consul-General
Hall, giving a full account of the execu-
i tion of the American citizens. He in-
| tends to protest for the Government
I against the outrage committed by tbe
' Spanish authorities os in violation of in-
I ternational law and of our treaties with
^ Spain, and to demand an adequate repa
ration. The State Department is reti-
' cent but determined to obtain redress,
i There is a very unfavorable feeling
against Spain in official circles.
