KIDNAPPING, -. Considerable excite.
) ment has been created ia New Orleans,
: by tho supposed kidnapping of a Spanish
Refugee, named Rey, and conveying him
= to Cuba. 1t appears thai he was turn
key of prison in Cuba and assisted in
the escape of two persons confined there
in. The offence is a capital one, The
city authorities have arrested the Span
ish Consul, Carlos dc Espana, and held
him To bail in the sum of $4,000, as be-
ing accessory to the crime. The New
Orleans papers, generally, say that he
has not justified himself, and charge him
with being at least cognizant of the alb,
ducton.
i 1t is also asserted, in tho Picayune,
that The Kidnapping can be proved, and
+ the person who conveyed Roy, while
drunk to the schooner, will testify to the
fact. Our Government, we suppose, will
inquire into the matter.
