TRE USUAL SEeSION OF THE CAnINET was held to-day, at which all the members were in attendance. The proposed action of our gov- ernment with reference to the Virginius cap- ture was the principal topic of discussion. Gen, Currman is improving, but is still con- fined to his bed, and his physicians forbid him to talk, or to see any one outside of his family. They encourage the hope, however, that if he experiences no drawback he will be able to get out in a couple of weeks.

SATANTA AND Bic Taee.—The Commis- sioner of Indian Atfairs does not credit the re port from Texas that all of the Kiowas are off their reservation except Satanta. He says a few of the Kiowas may have been depredating in Texas but he does not believe that anything like 500 are onthe war path. He has receive recent advices from the nt of the Kiowa~ and Comanches, and when the latter were heard from they were all qulet, and on their reserva tion. He feelscontident that Satanta and Big Tree are di to keep faith with Governo: Davis and the government, and they will hesi tate long before again placing themselves in a hostile attitude.

Service by publication has been made upon the non-resident defendants in both ofthe cases. The defendants have not entered any appearance, nor have they answered or pléad to the petitions. CHARGE OF Restorine PostTace Staurs.— Some two months ago Detectives Sargent and McElfresh got information that a young man pamed J. B. McCooey, an employe in the Pen- sion oftice, was suspected of collecting canceled post office bee and by @ chemical system of washing, restoring them so that they would pre- sent a new and fresh appearance, and be again fitfor sale. A surveillance has been kept on him by the officers, who claim to have discoy- ered where he has been selling stamps thus washed in considerable numbers. To-day De- tective McElfresh ceeded to his office and took him into Custody ‘and is now at police héadquarters, and will probably have a hearing before the Police Court to-morrow.

Many maintain that it may turnout that (h+ Virginius is entitled to the protection of our govern- ment, but that does not appear, and the Spanish officer who captured ber acted as onr naval officers did in many a case, and signally that of the English registered ‘ship Florida, t out from a port in Brazil by Captain ins, brought to the United States, and sank Hampton roads. One of the leading lawyers of large and extensive practice and with full knowledge of international law is of the opinion taat should it appear that the Virginius was entitled to the protection of the United States in her attempt to land soldiers and munitions of war in Cuba, and that therefore her capture by the Tornado wasin derogation of the rightsof the United States; and if when that shat! have been made apparent, the Spanish government shal! disavow the act of the Tornado and punish ler for it, and express regret .o the United States for the thing having been done without nuthority; and so, also, in regard to the exeen tion of the Cuban officers by Col. Burriel, that will, of necessity, be the end of the question. ANOTHER INTERESTING WILL Case.—An other two million dollar will case has been de- veloped in this city. It appears that Frederick Rollwagen, a wealthy property holder in th: seventeenth ward, died a few months ago, leaving an e¢state valued at between one and two million dollars. When his will was opened it was discovered that Mr. Kollwagen had, just previous to his death, married Magdalena Se Enger, and that he had left ber for her lifetime one-third of all the rents and income accraing from his estate. Rollwagen divides the fee simple of his estate among his three sons and the seven children of his deceased daughter, but leaves his residence to his wite Magdalena, and, besides giving her one-third of the whole in come, makes her, one of the sons and twe friends his executors, forbidding them to sel! any of his real estate until after her death, and until the youngest of the grandchildren shail be twenty, years of age. This will on the und that the testator wi right mind when he signed it.—. adelphia Press, Mowry Lockep Up.— the yellow port, was the Hon. Samuel Peters, member of Congress elect from the western district of Louisiana. He was cash ier of the Freedmen’s Savings bank of the above-mentioned city, and had the funds of that institution under his control. The dreadful dis ease carried him oft so suddenly that he had no! time to give any directions concerning the affairs of the bank, and he died without making known the “combination” on which the safe was lock ed. The books stow that there are $12,000 in the safe. but there areno mechanics in that part of the country that can open the safe with- out destroying it. The examiner of Freedmen’s banks will not go to Shreveport until the frost has completely subdued the pestilence, and the people's money remains literally ‘locked up.” A Missing U.S. Deruty Marswar.—on Wednesday last, Lewis Newcomb, deputy United States marshal, attempted to collect x claim of $5,000 against the captsin of a bark ly ing at Hoboken, and loading with coal for New Bedford. After some conversation with Wm Martin, the captain, ths marshal decided to accompany the vessel] to New Belfort, since which time he has notbeenscen. The Hoboken authorities have received “information that he had not arrived in New Bedtord with the ves sel. It js believed that the marshal was foully dealt with, and the captain and crew have been arrested and held. Newcomb was about 2s years of age, and has red hair and moustache. His parents, who reside in Jersey City, know nothing of his whereabouts. ne of the victims of CoxritctiNe Reronrts AnovT THAT Great CaRuist VicToRy.—It is reported that the Carlists were victorious in the engagement near Miranda de Arga, but the report that Licut Gen.

The government has received dispatches trom both of these officers dated the 9th instant.

Morianes, in his official report of thc battle to the Spanish government, states hi passed two nights on the ground ’ previonsl; eld by the enemy. TRE VinGinta Lecistature.—The returns in Virginia indicate that the two political par Ues in that state will be represented in the nex senate exactly as they were in the last—demo erats 33, republicans 10.

It is supposed that under his leadership the revolutionists will make a supreme effort, anc either triumph or be annihilated. Suor ny wis Pray While severa! boys were plaving in Saratoga last Friday at ternoon ina barn belonging to Charles A.-Allen. one of the boys named Fitzgerald seized « loaded shot gun which stood in a corner, with which they had just been shooting in a grove near by,and discharged it at a lad named Hula han, who was close tohim.

All’ marched to the epot with Grmuess. Bem betta and Ryan showed marked courage, al though the former was slightly affected toward the last. The two others quite broke down. before they were bandaged, but Ryan kept ut to the last, never flinched a’ moment, and died without fear or regret. Bembetia and Kyar were killed at the first aischarge. THE LAST NOBLE ACT OF GEN. RYAN. Mr. Manuel Govin, president in Kingston Jam: of the committee of the society o the Friends of Cuba in that city, went off in th. Virginius on her departure from her wharf is Kingston. He and several other reskientsof the port accompanied the ex, ionists sume six teen miles to sea. When leaving the vessel an about to step on board a steam tug which had been chartered for the purpose of conveying Mr. Govin and his friends back to Kingston, the ladder of the Virginius broke and precipitated Mr. Govin, the pilot and another gentleman into the sea. Mr. Govin was at the time quite lame. the result of a severe fall which he had sattered a few days previous. A very heavy sea was run ning, aud an escape trom death seemed almos impossible. The passengers on board the Vir ginius were panic-stricken, and to add to any slight chance Mr. Govin might have had for hir lite, the pilot, a very heavy man, had clatched him in the water was bearing him down. As soon as the alarm of “‘a man overboard” reached the cabin, Ryan, who was dining at thc time, rushed on deck, and, throwing off his coat and vest, jumped overboard and rescued th drowning nen. Mr. Govin, in relating the cir cumstance, could with difficulty repress hi- tears for the death of his preserver. The brave of the act of Ryan can only be fully appre elated when it ts understood that a heavy seu was running; that the steam tug was bumping against the side of the nius, and that th: men had fallen into the water between the Vir ginius and the tug. MORE SPANISH DEVILTRY. A private letter received in New York, date: Havana, November 6 says an official telegran s received at the palace, from Puerto Prin cipe, the day before, of an engagement between a Spanish force an? @ column of insurgents, un der command of Sangrule, in which the insar gents were severely beaten, losing 20 killed anv 0 taken prisoners. The Spanish commande caused ali the prisoners to be shot, at Pasad Por Las Armas, on the field of battle. The gov ernor of Puerto Principe, upon hearing of it took the command away trom the Spanish com mander and arrested him, tolegraguing the event to the captain general. The latter im mediately telegraphed to Puerto Principe, caus ing the commander to be reinstated and order ing the governor to Havana. Itis thought at Havana that the governor feels undue sympa- thy towards the insurgents through the infiu- ence of his wife, who is an aunt of the late Agramonte. THE CUBANS IN NEW YORK AROUSED. Arrangements are being made for an inaig nation meeting at Cooper Institute this wee! and it isexpected that upwards of 2,000 Cubans men and women, will attend the meeting. Th: Cubans say that they never felt more coniident of ultimate success than they do at the present moment, and that funds are pouring in from many hands—notably that of Mr. Miguel de Aldama. It is expected that $i collected within the present month from thi- and South American sources. Captain (. W Brown stated that he hail received the offers ot services on behalf of Cuba of many veterans of the late war. CURAN MEETING IN NEW ORLEANS. There was anenthusiastic Cuban meeting in New Orleans yesterday, at which the surveyor of the port and other prominent Federal official= participated. Kesolutions were adopted con demming the barbarity of the Spaniards and calling upon the Federal government to recog nize the Cubans as belligerents and demand in demnity and apology for the recent outrages on American citizens, CURR “Y AND LABOR. A Better Prospect Ahead. From various quarters it is admitted that « somewhat better prospect is presented at th beginning of this week in financial, busines and industrial circles. Not all the factories an? industries have stopped by 4 great many, an the majority of those that are well managed ar in no trouble. A correspondent of the Bostor Journal gives an encouraging account of th cotton and woolen maunufactories at Lewiston Maine, Allot. the two hundred and filty thoa sand spindies in that city are running as usual with no knowledge on te part of the managin agents, who are in almost daily correspondenc with their chiefs, that any stoppage or curtail ment is mediti The woolen mills are doin, nearly their usual amount of work. In Pitts burg, Pa., things are not nearly so bad as they have been represented. All but one of the farn aces arerunning, but wages have been reduced 10 percent. ‘There are said to be less than one thousand men out of employment. The Monon gahela miners,wbo are on a strike, are expected to resume work at the old prices. At Johnstown Pa., the Cambria Iron Company have reducec wages 20 per ce! Very few hands have beer discharged. The Pennsylvania railroad com. pany af Altoona, Pa., employ usually thre: thousand five hundred meu. The hours have been rcduced from ten to eight. In Harrisburg Pa..the manufactories are stated to be in « highly flourishing condition. NEW YORK AND BROOKLYN WORKING ME Four hundred laborers were discharged ye terday from the department of public works in New York, and mere will be bao mr al on Saturday on account of the appropriations sei aside forthem being exhausted. At a meet ing of the Aldermen of Brooklyn last evening resolutions were adopted placing $16,000 to the account of street reparing, to enable the board of city works to immediately employ the recently discharged men on the streets. At « meeting of the tailors’ central organization last evening the visiting committee reported that » compromise had been effected, whereby th workmen wouid suffer a reduction of only tive per cent., with the understanding that when trade revived the old prices would be resumed. THE STRIKE OF THE BUILDERS still continues, and the men refuse to go te work until the employers and contractor promise to pay the old rates. Building ha- ceased all over the city of New York, except on a tew contracts which are near completion: ani inone ortwo cases the contractors have suc ceeded in obtaining enongh non-society men to dothe work. The greatest difficulty they tin: is in obtaining laborers and hod-carriers. | Broadway the men on strike congregated 1) front of the Western Union Works, and at on time it was thought a raid was intended on th few laborers employed in removing rubbish but nothing occurred to interrapt them in their work.

He ani Hall didn't get slong well together; but I don’t think the doc tor bad anything to do with it, if the poor “old man” was poisoned. Correspondent.—Were there any suspicious circumstances connected with Hall's illness to make you think he was poisoned, or was there any suspicion of any foul play’ ‘yeou.—I never saw anything to make me think he was poisoned. I heard, as I stated im my testimony to the Secretary of the Navy, of which Hall told Joe and Hannah, bat ('m’ in- clined to think it was only bis delirium, Hail during the latter part of his sickness, couldn't bear to have Buddington come near'him, and Herron, the steward, said that he saw Bad dington seize and choke flall because the old man would sign some papers, and after th. Hall seemed afraid of Buddington, and on occasion, when Buddington went to him to b to tarn him or help him some way or other, the “told man” seized him and flung him half across the cabin. Correspondent.—Did Herron say what p Buddington wanted Hall to sign’ Tyson.—No; but I guess it was the papers turning over the command to Buddington. Correspondent —What papers? Did Hal have any idea of turning the command over? Tyson—Yes. tell you how it was.

Well, you see how I was fixed; I couldn't say anything at all about it and {told him so. Aday or two afterwards when the old man was sick again, Bud came around me while I was working on the ice, ana asked me what Hall said to me when we were on the ice. I said I couldn't tell him, and he then began talking about what Hall UAd said of the papers relating to the command being turned over to him (Bud), and said, «+ bim, he (Bud) would make the old —- —— sign them;” and I guess it was something about the same papers that made Bud seize Hell, for Bud said then that he wou!d make out’ the papers for Hall to xen Correspondent.—Were they signed that you know ot? Tyson.—No, I don’t think they were, for it they had been we would have known it before the poor old fellow died, Correspondent.—Did Buddington seem to be affected in any manner by Hall's death? Tyson.—Ob, be isn't aman to be much atfected by anything, although when he wants to make x point he will cry and take on as if he was a= tender hearted as a child. Why, when poor Hall died it was at twenty-five minutes past three in the morning, November ing Bud came below and but there was none played, might have the decency to wait till the poor “old man’s” body was cold at least. I'm not a swearing man and I don’t want to swear after what God did for me in taking me off that hor- rible but I do feel like it when I think of that map. To show you what kind of is, I'll tell you. You asked me if he showed any feeling about Hall’sdeath. Some time the next spring after Hall died I was ashore one day to put upa good headboard at the grave instead ot the rough one that had been put up, marked only with a lead pencil, and Buddington went ith me. After I bad finished at the grave we alked back towards the shore, and were talk- ing of Hall and the whole business, an! Bad talked over again why he had advised Hall to turn the sbip south the fall before, instead of staying where we ought to have doue: and then about our prospects of getting further south when the ice broke out. We stopped at the edge of the hill and he talked some time; when we started on he stopped and turned around, looking toward the poor man’s grave, clenched his fist and struck downwara With it, as if he was striking some one, ani tamping bis foot at the same time, poured forth a volley of foul abuse upon the dead man, with threats to some of the living. And that was not the only time he talked that way before me and before others. Now that's the amount of feeling he had for the man that made him all he was He's a good sailor, I'll say that for him, and he’s as sharp and keen as they make ‘em; but | tell you he’s a bad man. He was so well known among the whalemen that none of them hardiy would have anything to do with him. 1 see by the papers that Buddington says that neither he nor any one else on the Polaris saw anything of us on the ice after we broke away how far was it from where they lived last winter to McGary’s Kock, off Littleton Island? ad an inch over a mile and if. bout it to ‘any a Tyron.—Well, when I saw the Polaris the next morning after we broke away, going up, she lay just at the rock, where we saw aw: sersathore.
