"THR NEW MAGDALEs."-The play OF this
name, dramatized from Wilkie Collins latest
and much talked-of novel, was performed in
TINS city for the first time at Wallis Opera
House last night TO a fashionable audience,
which would have been much larger but for the
rain. The drama sdheres closely to the story
as told in the book until the closing scene,
which ends with suicide instead of a wedding.
The closing tableau, "other refuge have
none, Is very beautiful and artistic The play
y an interesting one from the prologue to the
fnal tableau, and several OF the scenes are
highly dramatic. Miss Alice Brooks was very
good as "Mercy Merrick," and would be better
By slightly modulating her penitential whine.
SIZE is capable of n great deal, as shown by the
real power evinced In her acting in the spien-
did scene in the second act where, goaded be-
yond endurance by the taants of "Grace Rose
berry," she turns upon her tormenter with
womanly rage and Indignation. Miss May Ar
i'reton makes fair "6race Roseberry." Mrs.
GsTmon (the best cold woman" on the stage)
" A. capital as ssI.ady Janet Roy" Mr.. Harris,
the new actor, made q good impression a. "Ju-
Ian Gray" and Is likely TO become o favoriee
here The "Horace Holmcroft" Of MI. Bur
ton was fair. Altogether the new play is q hit,
and ought TO draw good houses during the
week

been directed by our governments to ask for an
explanation OF the apparently intentional indis-
position to accede to the Just and reasonable de-
mands OF the United States. The Lloyd Aspinwali
was bound on legal voyage from Port au Prince
to Havana, bearing important dispatches from the
Minister OF the United States at Hayti TO his gov
ernment, and also dispatches from the officer in
command OF one OF the vessels OF war OF the
United States OF the West India squadron. She
was arrested by the firing OF gun from
Spanish man-oi-war, and then boarded and taken
to Nuevtas. Secretary Fish, In "a letter TO the
Spanish Minister at Washington, called his atten-
ton to the Decree then lately issued by the Captain
General OF Cuba, con tempatng interference with
the commerce OF the United States ana asserting
that the freedom OF the ocean can nowhere and
under no circumstances be yielded by the United
States, the high seas contiguous 10 those OF the
Island OF Cuba being the direct pathway OF large
part OF the purely domestic trade OF the United
States. Spain, he said. he at war with Cuba the
United StaJes viii submit TO those rights which
public law comedies TO belgerents Such seizures
were characterized by the Secretary wanton
injuries, and the United States could not allow
such acts TO pass unquestioned or with
out fun reparation. Alter much corre-
spondence and delay OF three or four months the
Lloyd Aspnwal was set at liberty and proper
compensation subsequently made. 1t appears
from the documents that the Governor OF Santiago
de Cuba, quoting the words OF the general COM
manding the Department OF the East, said, IN an
official communication, that by the national laws
every foreigner setting foot on Spanish territory
in the attitude of war, and who is taken with arms
in his hands, is liable TO the penalty OF death with
out process, consequently Speakman and Wyeth
suffered punishment without an ascertainment OF
their nationality.
COLORED SYMPATHY THE CAUSE.
The coored citizens of the District OF Columbia
will hold a mass meeting on Thanksgiving Eve, to
give expression OF their sympathy for the Cuban
cause. Frederick Douglass will be one OF the
sneakers.

The Presidents Position.

From the Washington Republican. Nov. 1871
The closest attention has been given to the
whole subject by the President himself, and
whatever shall be done by him in the premises
VIII, we are certain, meet the Just expectations
Of all who, while sympathizing with the Cubans,
desire at the same time that whatever may
be done by the government shall be in
cordance with law and not prompted by passion,
the clamor Of the hour or a hasty and ill-con-
sdered view OF the circumstances which at present
influence the public mind. No American, however
deeply he may sympathizc with those who have
suffered by the murders at Santiago de Cuba can
expect the government to hastily resort to force in
the absence OF well ascertained facts which, when
they are known, NAV justify the most stern and
decisive measures. The President is free in his
utterances concerning mis- duty in the matter, and
only yesterday said that this governments will take
care that the national flag shall be everywhere re-
spected and American citizens everywhere pro-
tected in all their rights

complications growing out OF it at the present time.
as only small portion OF the facts necessary to
full and proper adjudication OF the case were on-
cially known. The government could not act in
grave matter as the one under consideration
without first obtaining accurate information
upon all the essential points involved. BY the
time Congress assembled it was hoped that a def
mite result would be reached, when the complete
correspondence would be made public. He conf
IDENTITY anticipated peaceful and satisfactory
settlement OF the Cuban troubles, but thought
best, however, to be prepared to protect the
American flag and citizens at all hazards; and If
war became necessary the United States would
be found better prepared than people supposed,
having large body OF wen disciplined men ready
to be called into service, with necessary arms and

LONDON PRESS OPINION.
TELEGRAM TO THE NEW YORK HERALD.

The Daily Telegraph Advises the Uni ted
States TO Acknowledge the Beliigcrcncy
Of the Insurgents.
LONDON, Nov. IS 1873
The Daily Telegraph OF this morning has another
leading article on the virginius affair 1t says:-
considerations of policy and humanity would
lead England to view favoraby the annexation OF
Cuba to the United States. That the American
government will await the reassembling of Con-
gress before taking action in the Virgnus matter
Is evidence that its policy Will not be governed by
popular clamor We do not despair or a peaceful
solution OF the question. In view Of the dlfilcuty
the United States would experience in retaining
possession OF Cuba II annexed we would advise the
government OF that country to acknowl edge the
belligerency OF the insurgents and ultimately
guarantee the independence OF the island, asking
IN return the abolition OF slavery.n

OPINIONS OF PUBLIC MEN.
General Banks on the Situation.
pocrON Nov Ter

Boston, Nov. is, 1875
There are few men who have seen as much OF
public life and been as familiar with our foreign
affairs. who are so fearless and outspoken on the
Spanish massacre as General Banks, OF Massachu-
setts. He Is one of those men who look at
question from all available standpoints and, having
once arrived at a conscientious and impartial con-
cluson, he gives expression to views which OF
value far above those Of preudced partisan.
This Virginlus affair, which mas excited such uni
versal Indignation all over the country, has
aroused the ire OF the Waltham statesman to
pitch scarcely less than that OF the most enthusi-
astlc advocate OF Cuban independence, and he
does not hesitate TO express III no unmistakable
manner, the positive opinions which he entertains
met the General in the Parker House this even
ing. After few commonplace remarks. he in
quired earnestly If there was any fresh news from
Cuba. told him had heard OF nothing but what
he had seen in the evening papers,
1T is q terrible affair" he remarked, 'and am
anxious 10 know what will come from IT,
.Do you think the United States will make war
on Spain ~ asked.
mo. hardly think that. Still, we can't tell.
The whole matter is in the keeping OF the adminis
tration and we must support its measures what
ever they are. All of US who have q respect for
the country and an interest in Its welfare must do
that. Nothing can be accomplished by any talked
OF plans OF reparation. TO begin with, Spain has
no power to enforce her orders IN the Island OF
Cuba and We all know she Is too proud to allow or
ask assistance. Any decree OF condemnation she
may make OF parties engaged in the virginius affair
will be interpreted an honor to them, and while
they receive the condemnation or the Spanish gov
ernment. they know 1t is not intended TO degrade
them and Spain Will establish her reputation with
the people Of both spain and Cuba.r
