The Privateer Cuba Libelled.
WILMINGTON, Oct. 19.-The Cuba was
libelled to-day and the United States Mar.
shall boarded her and demanded the sur
render of the ship into his hands. Com
modore Higgins declined to surrender his
ship except to IN officer of the United
States, and a direct order from President
Grant. After some delay Lieut. Comman-
der Pierson, of the United States gunboat
Frolic, anne on board and demanded the
surrender of the vessel, showing IN order
direct from the President for the Cuba to
be turned over to him. Commander Hig-
gins then surrendered his sword and yes
sci to Lieut.. Commander Pierson, and him
self q prisoner of war to the United States
navy. The Cuban flag was then hauled
down by the United States authorities and
the entire crew sent ashore in a penniless
condition.. The affair, in some aspects, is
regarded here as an outrage, especially the
turning loose in our city of over. 100 sailors
and marines, entirely beyond the restraint
or control of officers. In anticipation of
trouble a large special police force will be
put on duty tonight.
