Iu addition to the above, it can also
be positively stated that within the next
two days, Secretary Fish and the Spa
nish Minister will determine the port ut
which tue Virgluius and the surviving
passengers and crews shall be delivered
to the United States. The words s.im-
mediate release, rs applicable to the
delivery of the Virginins aud tie sur
vivlng passengers aud crew, Implies, of
course, reasonable time for its execu-
ton, as some days must elapse before
Havana aud Santiago de Cuba eau be
reached.
The agreement is regarded in official
quarters as covering nll the points of our
original demand, though in modified
form; which is considered respectful
and honorable TO both countries. The
fixing OF the 25th Of December as the
time for salutipg our flag is to allow the
necessary opportunity to Spain to show
the Nirginius improperly carried the
American flag and American papers.
There is sensible relief in all quarters
that the negotiation has thus peuceably
ended. Both Secretary Fish and Ad-
miral Polo had for two weeks past been
engaged in producing this result. on
| which they receive the congratulations
of their respective friends.
