General Order of the Navy Departments
Speculntions Concerning the Admiraps Sue
ccssor-Tho Expenses of the Funeral of the
Old Hero of the Sea.
WASHINGTON August ID 1870.
A general order of the Navy Department just
issued provides that the day of the funeral or the
late Admiral Farragut the national nag shall be dis
played at all the navy yards and stations ana on
board OF all ships Of the United States now In COM
misslon Seventeen minute guns will DO fred at
noon from each navy yard. The o0mmandant OF
tue Navy Yard at Portsmouth will furnish q proper
uneral escort and Will pay the honors due to the
deceased. All officers OF the navy and marine corps
VIII wear Grape on their left arm for period OF
thirty days.
There Is some speculation as to who will succeed
Admiral Farragut admiral The act OF 1868 estab-
fishing the number In each grade or line officers on
tue aCtiVe St OF the navy says the Increase IN tho
respective grades shall be made by the selection
rom the grade next below Of officers who have
rendered the most efficient service during war; and
who possess the highest professional qualifications
and attainments The only otiicer IN the grade be-
low admiral Is Vice Admiral Porter.
The death of Admiral Farragut has raised an other
point OF some interest besides the successorship.
and that Is, whether the old hero OF the sea be
buried at the expense OF the government, az one OF
his rank and distinguished services should. In the
naval SERVICE there occurs the following sectiOn:-
SECTION II. And be further enacted that expenses in
CURED by any officer of the for medicines medical
when he was on duty and the medicines could
been obtained from naval supplies the attend
ance or naval officer could not have been
had; nor shall any funeral expenses OF q naval
officer who died In the United States
to attend the funeral OF officer who died there allowed
penses OF his funeral not exceeding his pay for
month"; shall be betrayed by the government paid
paynaster upon whose books the OF such officer
borne for pay.
Under this section 1t seems clear that no expense
can be incurred lawfully by the government for the
funeral services OF the lamented Farragut and,
therefore, II Is likely that the ceremonies attending
his burial Will not be OF that imposing character
which his services merit. There Is very general
feeling OF regret here on account of thus curious
legislative Veto which during the dreadful 1T OF
economy last session. found It's way into the ApprO
pratOn bill.

The GENTLE spANlARDs IN CUBA.
NEW YORK. March 23


An Havana letter of the 10th states that
captured Cuban correspondence shows that
General Jordan is much hampered in his war
bv counter orders from President
Cespedes. Upon the reception at Havana OF
the American papers containing the alleged
letter of Vice Consul Phillips to Secretary
Fish about affairs in Santiago, there was
great indignation expressed On the news
reaching Santiago there was great commotion
among the. Spanards and volunteers there.
They threatened to mob and lynch him.
Phillips hoisted the American flag, and sta
toned Il number of American sailors in his
building as a protection.
The new consul, Mr.. Parsons, waited on
the Governor of Santiago and demanded pro-
lection for Phillips, and u passport for him to
leave by the French steamer for Jamaica.
These were granted, and Phillips left town
after sending 4 letter to the PRESIDENT OF the
Spanish club disavowing having sent any let
ter to Secretary Fish.
1t is stated that the same charges contain
ed in the letter received by Secretary Fish,
and which is believed to have been disayoWed
by Phillips through motives OF personal safe
tv. have been made by both the English and
French consus at Santiago, to their govern
ments.
A Kingston (Jamaica) letter Of the 10th
states that steamer had arrived there with
the American consul, Phillips, on board, who
fled from Santiago de Cuba. 1t appears that
Phillips had entered protest against the AZ
rest and assassination of naturalized Amer
lean citizen. and against the seizure of the
American sloop Champion, whose captain
and crew he had sent TO one OF his estates in
the country to keep them from 4 Spanish
prison. Just then came the report from the
United States relative to his letter to Secre-
tary Fish. which caused the case of assassi
nation by the volunteers. The Governor OF
Santiago said he was powerless, and advised
Phillips to leave, and he left, being accom-
panied to the wharf by the governors secrc
ary and the British consul.
