KIDNAPPING IN FLoRIDA-Prcsidcnt Hayes
having received information to the effect that
colored men, citizens Of Florida, had been kid
mapped and transported across the Gulf of Mex
leo into Cuba, and there sold as slaves, has ap-
pointed an agent to proceed to Cuba and inquire

be that he is man of decided ability, of no
small prudence, and not likely to act in an ag-
gressivc manner and, if not actually progress

treme. The fact that the late Cardinal An
tonelli, who, rs Secretary of State, was decided

thc late Pope had high regard for him, are
circumstances in favor of Leo MIL

WASHINGTON, May 22.-The Senate Committee on
Military Affairs will probably report favonbly on
the petition of VIM J. Marshall executor of the es-
tate OF John G. Holloway, asking that the United
states purchase the Camp Chase, Ohio burial lot
This case has about il some very interesting fca-
lures. The State of Ohio in 1861 leased land of
Mr. John G.. Holloway near the city of Columbus,
and on the 1st ol March. 1872 transferred the lease
10 the United States and the lands were held and
occupied by the Government until the sth OF FEB

about two and One-haf acres, upon which l0OO
Confederate prlsoners had been buried. The petit
TONER. who is one of the executors OF the will OF
Mr HOLLOWAY, offers 80 sell the land TO the Secre-
tsry of War for 500, but the Secretary decides
that ha cannot purchase il under the law providing
for the purchase Of land for National cemeteries,
because the bodies of only Confederate soldiers are
buried therein. The petitioner therefore asks Con-
gress to authorize The purchase and to Appropriate
$500 for the purpose. The Secretary of War, on
