Great anxiety is manifested here to see |
the comments Of the American press on |
the capture of the virginius and the exc
cution of the prisoners,
A Constancia paper says: No u.atter

the bad condition of the affairs of onr
country, but We are lar from being
daunted by any foreign complication.

foreign war. The stronger Powers know

also says, when the news of the capture
of the Virginius was received it was

smoke, going at her fullest speed.
She finally came up with and
captured the Virginius, which was taken
possession of with repeated cries of

valiant crew. Without the slightest re-
sistance one hundred and sixty-three
men delivered themselves quietly up.
