From the Washington Chronicle we
gather the following position assumed
by the Spanish Minister, resident at
the Capital of this nation, upon the
affair of the virginius:
First. That the virginius is not an
Ame rican ship with legal register,
owned by citizens Of the United
States, as our laws require, so as to
entitle her to our protection; that she
was owned by Cubans, and registered
falsely in the name of an irresponsi-
BILE party of the name of Patterson,
residing in New York. Il
Secondly. That she had forfeited
this registry, had It bcsn valid, by her
subsequent sale to other parties. That
although she was Afterwards repur.
chased and turned over to her former
normal owners she was not registered
- our laws require.
Thirdly. That she has frequently
sailed during the past two years under
the aags Of other countries,
,Fourthly. That shs was engaged IN
On illegal expedition 1t the time Of her

fate has excited 90 much sympathy

Of the unitsd etstss, and that eli OF
