Your correspondent called on United States
Consul General A. TIA. Torbert to-day, and had
a short interview with him relative to the fate
of Mr. O'Kelly, who is still imprisoned in
Fort Corona, at Manzanillo.
General Torbert informed me that he had
AGAIN SEEN CAPTAIN GENERAL cEpALLos
yesterday, to press Mr.. O Kelly's request to
be tried here. He informed the Captain
General that his visit was under
INSTRUCTIONS FROM SECRETARY FISH,
who had expressed the desire that Mr..
O'Keily's request be acceded to.
The Captain General was reticent and de-
Glued to answer definitely.
.a.ina8 NOT FOR SOME TIME
The Consul General spoke of the trial; but
General Ceballos replied that that would not
be for some time.
Isl SHIFTING RESPONSIBILITY.
The impression was left upon the mind of
the Consul General that after the suna0riO,
which is preliminary examination in the ma
ture Of q Grand Jury inquest, as to the
gre lnds for Indictment and trial, the case will
be turned over to the new Captain General,
Pieltain who will be here in few days.
, AN UNDECIDED ADMINISTRATION.
This perhaps explains the determination
Of the Captain General, who wishes to trans
fer the responsibility. His whole administra-
ton, thus far, has been of this undecided
character,

Referring to the imprisoned correspondent Of the

United States government has been applied to

rejoinder that Mr.. O'Kelly is not citizen, having
been but. little over year in the country. At
the same time the assurance has been given that

be had. The news circulated from Spanish sources
that OKelly has brought with him intelligence

The N'ItoniaH says that It is rumored that the

from this place. We think not, as preparations
arc being made to increase the works. The Penn.
sylvanla Railroad company never overlook such
favorable locations for shops as sunbury pre-
sents. Besides being the termini of eve rail-
roads, where freight takes different directions to
market, it would be POOR policy TO remote the
shops located here, particularly When they own
a large -eope ofland upon which they are erected
