Gen, Ryan's Personal Effects, ‘To-day at one o'clock General George Cook with twoor three friends, proceeded to t) room of General Ryan over Gautier’s saloon for the purpose of taking an inventory of the thing~ he left in Washington.

THE CABINET MEETING YESTERDAY Preparations for Protection of American Luterests, The Excited Feeling Throughout the Country ity of the situation with regard to the Virginius affair deepens by the telegraphi: announcement that but eighteen souls of all those taken on the captured steamer had been saved. There were one hundred and sixty-five persons on board the Virginias, and it ts pain ful to contemplate that one hundred and forty seven of them have fallen victims to the merci less authority of the armed mob who govern Cuba, FIPTY-SEVEN MORE VICTIMS. The Prarie, of Cienfuegos, says that fitty-s of the Virginius captives were shot at Santiag» on the 10th inst. No particulars of these ad ditional executions have yet been made public in Havana. ONLY EIGHTEEN SAVED. . A Havana dispatch says: The trials of all the prisoners taken on the Virginius have been concluded. Only eighteen will be saved from death. Ofthese several are engineers or fire men, who were ignorantof the destination o: the expedition, and four or tive will be set a: liberty. The rest of the eighteen will probably be condemned to the chain gang. A MADRID JOURNAL ON THE BUTCHERY. The Imparcial has a long article on the exe cution at Santiago. It endeavors to show that itis not possible for the Umited States govern ment to make any demand on Spain in conse quence of these proceedings.

The Spanish Brigadier General Bascones reports that he encountered a strong force of insurgents at Sacra, in the central department on the sth instant. The fighting began at tp m. and ended at § p. m., when the rebels wer: ated and routed, flying in all directions Over 100 were killed, and a large number wounded, The Spanish troops lost 51 k Important Action at the Cabinet Meet ing Yesterday. The seseion of the cabinet yesterday continuet over two heurs, and was the most importau: which has taken place under President Grant's administration. The capture of the Virginiys. and the shocking barbarities perpetrated by th: Spanish authorities at Santiago de Cuba formed the subject of seriows consideration, and defi nite action towards maintaining the dignity o/ the United States in the existing complication was taken. . It is stated that the government will demand oF Spain the immediate arrest aud punishinen of the parties mainly instrumental in ci ing the outrages of which the governu seriously complains; and if the Castelar govern ment shall be unable to give the required satis faction, this government will proceed to ex tr_me measures necessary to obtain Though no cabinet officer admits directly tha this is one of the conclusions arrived at daring the deliberations, still upon its being presenteu there is no positive demial. Phe tact is that owing to the determination adopted in the ca! inet session not to make known for the present any portion of the important proceedings, it is more than ordinarily difficu't to obtain even the slightcst intimation from any one of the severa! heads of departments, or trom the President, except as mentioned above—the admission that the decision will meet the heartiest approval of the American people. ‘There is reagon to believe that one ot the sub- jects accompanying the discussion of the sitaa- tion was that of the Spanish man-of-war now =e “— at New York; and thatit was remarked in the course of the consultation that should that vessel by any possibility com: into the hands of this government, its possession would more than compensate for the loss of the Virginius, so far as the comparative value o the ships are concerned. THE PRESIDENT'S POSITION. While the President cannot declare war he is determined to piace the naval service of the poaaoee f in such a state of efficiency that it may be ready for immediate use should the present war clond assume such dimensions as to deter- mine Congress upon making a formal declara- tion. Should a rupture occur between the two governments, it will be the policy ef the United Staces to land a sufficient force of men on the island of Cuba, which can easily be done unter the protection of our iron-clads and other vessels of war. Our Naval P rations. Secretary Kobeson is weli satisfied with the condition of the vessels of our navy, and prom: nent naval officers join with the Secretary iv declaring ogr absolute fitness to meet with th American men-of-war and iron-claas readily available, any emergeucy that may arise. So far as ordnance is concerned the navy is ine eficient state, having on hand at the varion- navy yards most of the ordnance which arme: our vessels during the rebellion. It consists 0 fifteen, eleven, and nine-inch guns, weapons ot @ most formidable chi ter. TRE NONTM ATLANTIC SQUADRON. The United States steam sloop-of-war Kan tas bas already sailed direct to Santiago dc Cuba. She carries three heayy guns, and i- considered one of the best of the third-rat veasels of the navy. The Monongabela, whic carries eleven guns, sailed trom Newport o: Sunday last. to join the North Atlautic squad ron. The Ossipee, carrying eight guns, is now at Newport, taking on board torpedoes, ani will sail in a few days. The Powhatan is a Brooklyn, and will be ready tor sea at a day's notice. She carries seventeen guns. The Ju- niata, of eight guns, can necessary. The Worcest flagship of the North to sea anyday er, of fifteen guns, the Atiantit equacdron, is now taking on board provi and munitions of war at Norfolk, and will sail fur Havana y. The Ticonderoga, of eleven as, is mow on ber way trom Brazilian wquadron, to join the fleet inthe West Indies.
