THE DECISION IN THE VIR.
GINIUS CASE.

Advices from Washington indicate
that the Fish-Polo protocol is bearing
awkward fruit, but fruit which might
have been anticipated from the ma
ture OF the laundering document, and
which was very plainly predicted in
these columns. 1t is said that Attor-
ney General Williams, after careful
examination of the proofs submitted
TO him by the Spanish Minister, has
decided that the Virginius, at the time
of her capture by the Tornado, was
not an American vessel, consequently
was not entitled to American protec-
ton, and. consequently, belongs, Of
right, to her captors, and not to us.
If this decision is sustained, the Uni
led States must not only dispense
with the salute to the flag, which was
to have been given on Christmas day,
but, if Spain should insist on it, the
vessel must be returned to the Spanish
authorities, together with the surviy-
ors of the passengers and crew now
on their way to our shores. For if
The Virginius was, to all intents and
purposes, pirate according TO tie
letter of international law, then those
on board OF her cannot shelter them
selves from trial and punishment by
appealing tc tie United States. Spain
is entitled to these prisoners, and to
Spain they must go-unless she
chooses to wave her rights in the
premises. in order to spare a further
humiliation Of our national pride.
DctiOns 10 this de-
