giana and the Susan Loud.
The American population at Cuba are highly
excited in relation to the capture and treatment of
the passengers on the Georgiana and Susan Loud.
There seems much doubt as to the disposition that
will be made of them. We are informed that their
trial is proceeding with all haste. They are all
kept closely confined on board Spanish ship, the
Soberaus, where without benefit of counsel or de-
| fence, their trial is conducted in the most secret
manner
The course to be adopted by our government in
regard to this extraordinary seizure and more ex-
traordinary trial is subject of much gravity At
the time of the capture of the Georgiana and Susan
Loud those vessels were sailing under the Ameri-
can flag, and with American papers. They were
not engaged in any expedition hostile to Spanish
authority. On the contrary, they were bringing
home, as passengers, those who had abandoned the
expedition against the Island of Cuba, or who had
never las has been asserted in regard to many of
them) knowingly and willingly entered into it..
These persons had committed no acts of hostility,
but were quietly, on the high seas, on American
vessels and under the American flag, returning
home. They were arrested by a Spanish war
steamer, carried forcibly into Spa lsh port where
they are detained in close custody, and are under
| SOhSJ SCoiStlg anu "lluOut pSllShL vi COuHSelS d
trial for piracy The capture was as clearly in vio-
lation of the laws of nations the trial is in viola
ton of positive treaty stipulations with Spain.
There can be no question that our government is
called upon to act promptly and decisivey in re-
gard to these outrages. Immediate redress should
be and, we think, will be demanded for such viola
tons of law and treaty obligations. We shall look
to further developments with interest.
The conduct of Capt Tatnall, of the war steamer
Saranac, in calling off the sloops-of-war German
town and Albany, which had determined to rescue
the Georgiana and Susan Loud from the hands Of
the Pzarro, has been severely reflected upon.
From the reputation of Capt. Tatnal for intelli-
gence and bravery, we persuaded that this was
not done ftom want of regard for the prisoners
on those vessels, for his duties as an American
naval commander. In making the capture of the
vessels, and forcby OBTAINING the passengers found
on board of them, the Pizarro had already com
mitted grave offence against the government of
the United States; and, we may suppose, from the
well known character of Capt. Tatnall that he de-
tie rmined after mature elaboration, not, by rescu-
ing the Georgiana and Susan Loud, to relieve in
any degree, the Spanish authorities from the heavy
responsibilities to our government which they had
incurred. Results may prove that he acted wisely
and with admirable foresight. We shall see
