to Washington this evening. His private secretary
also returned
The Spanish Minister paid yesterday into the
State Department twenty-five thousand five hun
dred dollars interest Of the debt of Spain to Ameri
citizens.
The State Department will do what is proper in
the case of Weeks American mate of the bark Wa
verley, now prisoner at Seville, Spain. Both the
late and present Consuls, well as the British
Consul at Manila, exerted themselves in procuring
able counsel and otherwise to save the prisoners,
and by these means to obtain the liberation of most
of them, and communication OF the punishment of
the mate and second mate. Killing three hundred
human beings by smotherng them, pouring hot
water through matches on them, &c, seems a hor-
rible crime: but whether Weeks and the first mate
We're responsible, is question. 1t is understood at
the State Department that the mate, Mr.. French,
is dead. If there be eXtenuating circumstances,
and our government can save W eeks. 1T WILL
