The news from Havana of the shoot.
ing OF Gen. Ryan, the Cuban General,
with others of the prisoners cuptured on
tho Virginius, creates much feeling in
Washington. where he was wcil-known.
Gen. Ryan was great ladies' man, and
created II sensation while promenuding
the avenue. with his militarv cape, largo
Texan braid hat. long curling hair, so.
lie always carried heavy cane, and
WAS generally accompanied by IN un-
usually largo blood. hoand, who was a
terror to many pedestrians. He fre.
qucntly had difficulties in tho hotel
lobbies, generally following up dis
cussion on Cuban matters in that way.
He was..about twenty eight years Of nge,
and was we'll educated.
The Liberal Republican, are not all
dead yet. Gen. N. P. Banks is again
ascending the political ladder from
which with several others he fell last
fall. This time he has been elected
State Senator from the Middlesex Dis
trict, in Massachusetts, over Copeland,
the regular Grant candidate, by an
overwhelming majority. Banks has
carried every town in the district Wal.
than, which is his home, gives him 76O
majority, and he carries Copelands 3
town by small majority. Additio nal
interest is given to the result from the
fact that Banks was badly beaten for
Congress in the same towns last year.
and that Copeland was then his chief
antagonist.
1t is very unfortunate that so many OF
the refugees from Memphis. Tenn,
should have been induced to return to
their homes while the city was still
scourged by the pestilence. The cir.
cular of the board of health inviting
them to return would seem to have
been an i'll advised action on the part OF
the board, for o number Of the returned
absontees have been stricken down by
the mcrciless plague, and some of them
must pay with thoir lives the penalty OF
their rashness in too soon returning 10
tho city.

AN AMICABL.E ADJUSTMENT OF THE AFFAIR AND RE-
LEASE OF THE PRISONERS.
On the night of the 18th of March last, a die
turbance was created in the saloon of Mrs.
Amelia Roseiter, in Fifth street, East OF Market,
which eliminated in the shooting of Mr.. Owen
McCnlleu, in the side Of the face. The particu-
lars OF the affair wsre fully published in the Com
MERCIAI. at the time, and it is unnecessary to re-
state them here.
George Wagner, who did the shooting, was a
young man of respectable family and bis par
ents reside in Baltimore. He was stopping in
Wilmington temporarily, prior to going down to
Milford, where he bad obtained work. Falling
in with some ftieuds Oh the night mentioned. he
became Intoxicated. and it was while in this con-
dition that the occurrence happened. He did
not write to his friends at home OF his situation,
but went over to Now Castle, and has been in
jail there ever since, lis parents wholly ignorant
of his whereabouts, and only learning of the
case in all accidental manner.
When the fact became known at home, me-
mortal was prepared and signed by many Of the
beet cltizans OF Fest Baltimore, testifyng to the
| former good character of Wagner; and on Tues
day last, Mr.. VIM. Il. Henderson, accompanied
by Wsgner's brother and friend, came
on to this city to intereede in
| behalf of the unfortunate young man
| They held an interview with Mr. McCulen, anG
/ all four afterwards waited upon Attorney
| General Lore, laying the facts in the
case before him, and unitedly asking
that no further proceedings be taken. Satisfied
of Mr.. McCullep's sincerity in the desire, and o.
his unwiingness to prosecute Wagner. the At
torney General granted the request, and yester
| day afternoon Mrs. Rossiter, McCullen, anC
Wagner's brother and friend went over to New
Castle to enter bail satisfy the record and obtaiI
the release of both Wagner and Jones, who wal
Il party in the disturbance.
Tomorrow, the prisoners will be released
/ and Wagner will leave the State, wiser man, VI
trust He is thoroughly sorry for the part b
performed in the affair and it's lesson will mos
likely follow him i'll after years.
