SENATOR SUMNER is right. Caleb Cush-
ing lie right. The fact that the Virginius
had American papers and sailed under an
American flag, does not overcome the
conclusive evidence that she had arms on
board, that she had Cuban soldiers on
board, that she was engaged in an Illicit
enterprise which deprived her OF the pro.
lection which would otherwise attach to

of state, state that mob which collected
in front of the American legation was
promptly dispersed by the government.
There is no doubt here in
official circles but that tho au-
thorities OF Madrid are fully capable
of preventing any outbreak The posi-
tion of Minister Sickles is very unforG-
BILE, but it is not believed that violence
win be offered. us Sickles telegraphs that
the Spanish officers are equal to the oinor-
gency. Minister Sickles is hourly in COM
munication with the state department,
and his dispatches indicate very strong
feeling againt the United States.
IApoRTANT CABINET MEETING.
WAsHiNGToN November 2.-Secrctary
Fish submitted number of kilograms
from Minister Sickles to the cabinet meet
ing to-day. Tho session which has just
commenced, is probably one of the most
interesting and serious meetings since tho
commencement Of the present compica-
tiona The members of the cabinet to-day
seemed to be very serious in their de-
meanor; and there seems to DO more ex-
tended discussion in all places as to prob
abilities OF war than has yet been noticed.
At the same time, SO far us has been made
known, official advices from Spain
have not varied in their
accusations Of tho honesty
of the CASTELAR, government to preserve
friendly relation and to command calm
ness and dignity during tho progress of
negotiations. The excitement OF the popu-
lace in Madrid does not seem to DO shared
by tho government there, as is evinced by
| the oppressed opinion OF tho secretary Of
state here, that the exagcration in official
reports and of the assertions OF Mr.. Sickles
that the Spanish government is able and
has suppressed hostile indications against
| the American legation ut Madrid.
THE SECRETARY OF THE NAVY
returned to this city at an early hour this
morning and was at the depot at very
early hour. a large number Of
NAVAL OFFICERS
have been ordered to duty to-day to ships
of heavy ordinance, now being fitted out

NAVAL RECRUITING OFFICES
have been ordered to be reopened at
New Orleans.
| APPLICATIONS FOR SERVICE.
The navy department has received up
TO this time 1870 applications for service
under the government in case of trouble
from e1-volunteer officers of tho navy
and applications are constantly being re
ceived, tho reply being that tho Will b,
duly considered should occasion arise fol
such action.
