state, has again rendered it necessary for me to
avail myself of the facilities of general crcu-

all the prisoners.

the 9Th ult, there remained in hospital twenty
four and in prison, ten waiting ship. These
last were removed to the Punta Castle, where
they remained until the moment of their embarka-
ton, and where they We're joined by such of their
companions as were subsequently, brought in,
and also by those who were removed, GONZALES

During their stay, every attention has been
paid them by their countrymen, as also by Mr..
Smith, the secretary of the English consul, and
they were visited by Gov. Letcher twice during
his short visit here, and by several officers of the
squadron. Their wants were supplied in every
respect consistent with the ru!es of the prison,
and their treatment by the jailors was consider
ate and kind.
They embarked yesterday at o'clock, P NJ,
on board the Spanish brig Ripa, for Cadiz, each
one provided with clothing, provisions, and
money in every respect similar TO those who
