New York's Old Boss.
A correspondent OF the New York World,
in giving an account attending the arrival
Of Boss Tweed in Cuba and his flight to and
arrest in Spain, states, on the authority OF a
member OF foreign legation, that Tweed
made his escape from New York with apass.
port from the Department of State drawn
up in the name Of Secor. It is stated on
legal authority that the use in this way by
Tweed Of passport frauduIently obtained
is an offence which comes under the law, tc
be punished criminally as the fraudulent
use OF . certificate Of citizenship unlawfully
obtained, the punishment Of which is i'm
prisonment at hard Iabor: not less than one
year nor more than five years, OF by q tint
OF not less than three hundred nor more
than one thousand dollars, or by both such
fine and imprisonment. And the person
knowingly aiding and abettlng such offence
is liable to the same punishment. So it is
probable Tweed will be turned over to The
United States authorities for trial, anC
there will be considerable interest to ascer.
tain who obtained the fraudulent pass from
the State Department.

patriot interest here is greatly excited Over
the action of this country and Spain in re
gard to Tweed. The uneasiness is not con

Tweed from Spain without acquisition OF
her part will be q precedent for the unques
toned surrender on our part OF any person
whom Spain may want. 1t is feared Mr.
Fish has blundered.
