THE CASE or THE vIRGLyTUs.

In our news columns will be found very
full account, fpom official sources, of the
capture of the Virginius and the subsequent
imprisonment and execution Of her crew by
the Spanish authorities on the island Of
Cubs. The correspondence, so far as II

prisoners by our naval officers, Is given
with such completeness as to satisfy our
readers that the most strenuous efforts were
made, with effective promptitude, to pre-
vent additional butcherics The list Of the

our opponents with q due regard for the
sincerity of our intentions. The Spanish
side is given, also for the first time, with
the clearncss and force of of'lcia, ulterance.

important transaction in the history Of our
