Escape of the Steamer Virginius The Algeria has arrived at New York, bringing correspondence from Panama, dated the 8th inbt., which contains the following details of the escape of the steamer Virginius, which had put in for repairs. The Spanish gnu-bout Bazan came on the 21st of June and anchored close to the Virginias, her commander not failing to let it be known that his in? structions authorized him to sink her if she attempted to escape. The same day, in came the United States steumer Kan? sas, and anchored not far from the Bazan, and not long after, the Cuinandaigua ar? rived. Although everybody knows what the Virginius has been doing for the past year, her character as blockade-runner being as clear as day, yet Mr. Thoriug ton, who acts as United States Consul at Aspinwall, oorti?ed that her papers from her last port, Carthagena, were all en regie, and, therofore, entitled to protec? tion as a merchant vessel, belonging to the United States. Commander Reed, of the Kansas, considering the Consul was technically right as to the letter, though not, in his way of thinktor, as to the spirit of the law, oouveytd . !io Vir giuius to sea at 6 P. M. of the 1st inst., and remained outside of the harbor until she was lost to sight in darkness. The commander of the Spanish steamer Ba? zan, when be saw the odds against him, proposed that the Virginius should be sent to the United States for trial, offer? ing to give security for the expenses, if she were not oondemued. People here, though generally sympa? thizing with the patriots, thiuk that in this instance the United States flag has been abused, and that Spain has not had fair play in the matter. Commander Reed, when interviewed on the subject, said he intended to call the attentiou of the authorities at Washington for the purpose of having the register taken sway from the Virginius; and he further says the Spaniards would be quite right in sinking or capturiug her it caught at sea heading for Cuba. Tu u neutral port, however, the American commanders could do no less than grant her tho pro? tection she asked for. On the day of the suiliug of the Virginius the Bazan did not even get up steam, her commander deciding to lay tho correspondence that had taken place and bis report bofore tho Spanish Govermout, to bo submitted to tho authorities at Washington. The Virginius olearcd for New York coast? wise, with no other cargo than arms and ammunition, which havo been received from Now York per steamer Coleon. Tue Bazan left Aspinwall on tho 2d instant, and the Dacia .sailed ou tho ISth ultimo, to grapple for the Colon and Ja? maica cable. At an elegant dinner party given iu this city tho "enfant terrible" of the family was permitted to occupy a soat near one of tho most distinguished guests. This "bete uoir" is much given to conundrums, which are not always appropriate. Moreover, tho young mau has a sister who is a shining hello in so? ciety. Eliza is tho name of the young lady, but tho young scapegraoe will call her Lize. The company were startled by tho voice of the voungster asking, "Why is father like "the devil?" An awkward pause ensued. Then he shout? ed out, "Became he is tho father of Lizo" (lies.) That boy did not get his dessorts, for he was sent to bed. f Washington Letter.

Thb TncTH About Libsria?A Geor? gia Negro Qiyes ms Experience of the "Colonization" Fraud.?Johu MoBur rus, a colored man, better kaowu as John Swain, a native of HawkinBville, Ga., has just returned to Savannah from an expedition to Liberia, whither he went, iu company with a number of emi? grants, io one of the ships of the Ame? rican Colonizitiou Society. He gives the following account of bis experience: In November last, oue Coppinger, who represented himself as uu agent of the American Colonization Society, visited Hawkinsville, and at once commenced ingratiating himself in the favor-of the colored people. He succeeded in getting a number of them together, one night, in a school-room, and pictured to them in glowing lauguagu the advantages of emigrating to Liberia, under the auspices of the society he represented. Ho pro? duced for their inspection specimens of products and manufactures, which ho asserted were from that country, and special inducements were held out to several of the more influential of tho colored men, among them John MoBur rus or Swain. The hitter's occupation? that of a pilot?being made kuown, this fellow Coppinger told him that the rivers of Liberia were crowded with steamboats, but there was great difficulty in obtaining men who understood the mauagetneut of them. Johu was pro? mised that ho would realize "a fortune" in a short time, if he would join iu the oxpeditiou. lie consented to do so, und made provision to send his family off, with the understanding that he would follow at the close of the boating season on our river, the Utter part of tue pre? sent month. Influenced by the sume specious arguments, u number of colored persons oi all uges aud of both sexes formed a colony, und left here as stated. The following is the story of the re? turned emigrant, Johu MoBurrus: I left Savannah on the lGth November, on the steamship Sau Salvador, to see my wife and children off to Liberia. Upon our arrival in New York, we were taken direotly alongside of the bark Jas? per, bound for Liberia. Just before reaching New York, one of my children died, and upon our arrival, I requested permission to stay on bhoro and have it decently buried. This request was re? fused, and I was forced on the bark with the others, which left immediately foi sea. I was thus compelled to entrust the interment of my child to strangers; and although I was promised that all expenses would be paid from Georgia to Liberia, 818 was exacted of me for tho burial ex penses of the child. It wus not my intention to go to Liberia at that time, and those in charge of the expedi? tion knew it. I went to New York to see my family off, intending to follow them in a few months, but was forced on board the bark and not allowed to go on shoro. Iu fact, taken away uguinst my will. Mr. J. W. Lathrop, of Savanuah, had promised mo be would seud mo out to Liberia as soon as the season closed, I at that time being engaged to bim as pilot of bis boat. As it is, however, I am glad I went to Liberia, as my eyes have been opened to the great fraud that has been practiced upon my people, aud I shall strenuously oppose emigration from Georgia, or any other Southern State. This is our home, and we are better treated, have more comforts aud privileges for ourselves, are better paid for our labor, when we net right and honestly, than we can be in any other country, Liberia especially. Owing to an agreement between the vessels run? ning to Cape Palmas aud tho Coloniza? tion Society, no emigrant is permitted after be lands to leave the country under two years. By that time, they are either dead or deprived of all means of getting away. Discovering this, I determined to leave the place, and saw Captain Richardson, of the bark Pope, at Palmas, und begged him to bring me back. Ho refused, for tho reusoii stated. But I showed him my custom house license as a pilot, when he pro? mised be would do what he could for me "as a seafaring man." Ho told mo to meet him at Monrovia, 300 miles from Cape Palmas, uu the ist of May, and he would take me to New York. I laid hid upon the beach for three weeks, being supplied with food by my wife, who bad to bring it five miles from the colony. When tho English steamer Virgo anchored withiu four milo^ of tho beach, I got a native to carry me out there. By this moans, I reached Mon? rovia, met Captain Richardson, who , brought tue to New York. This iu briel is the statement of this colored man, ! who, it seems1, sold his little property for j 8700, which he caunot buy now for 82,000. lie is penniless, his wife aud j children uro in Liberia, and he now has to call on his white and colored friends to assist him iu raising the means to bring them back. John states that the mortality is fearful at Cape Palmas, eighteen and tweuty of the Georgia emi? grants dying daily during acclimation. When tho six mouths' provisions ul lowed them by the society give out, they have to depend upon tho bread root and palm oil, the food of the natives, us subsistence. Specimens of this food were exhibited to us, aud our opiuiou is the sumo as John's?that it cannot be compared to good com bread aud fat bacon. The natives roam the country in idleness, men and women going naked with the exception of a small clout about the lotus. They live in tho bushes, upon the products above stated, and en? liven the time by hewing one another with huge cutlasses, similar to our scythes?as a general thing, however, they do not disturb the colonists. Mauy of the emigrants from the South, instead j of civilizing these savages, adopt their mode of life and take to the bushes with them with alacrity and facility ! remarkable. Johu says there are u [ number of Georgia negroes iu some of I these tribes, who are us wild aud barba irons as tho natives themselves. The j climate is terriblo.it beiug impossible ' for a Southern geerro to work i^ the open air after 9 o'clock in the morning, and late in the evening. Among the I other blessings enjoyed by Southern emigrants is a visitation daring the rainy season of swarms of venomous in? sects, called "diivers," about the size of oar large ret aut, whioh fill tho huts and worm themselves into every nook and corner. Their bito is terrible, and we are informed that two colored women, who were bed-ridden, and unable to keep tbeso insects off of them, died from the effects of the bites, their bodies being swollen horribly. There is no opportunity for a colored man or woman without means or assistance to elevate themselves in any manner in snch a country, under affairs as they now exist. Colonists are escaping whenever oppor? tunity offers, and returning to the States; their condition is represented ns deplorable, as after the first service of the society?hiring them out there?no? thing more is done for them. Many of those who have been at the Cape Palmas colony for fonr or five years, and who have succeeded in getting assistance from their white frieQds here, are re? turning; their term of compulsory resi? dence having expired. Some returned in tho bark Hope, with John Burns, several of whom are Georgians. The Attorney-General has given an elaborate opiniwn iu Gen. Howard's case. His paper is a legal curiosity. It shows that the Government has no possible hold ou Gun. Howard, who somehow, strangely enough, has droppod through a succession of loop-holes in the law be? yond the roach of justice. Some $700, 000 have mysteriously disappeared under his mismanagement; be cannot account for it; the Freedmeu's Bureau has beeu run so loosely that nobody can toll into whose pockets the money has leached. Aud for this, the Government has no? thing to show but Gen. Howard's bond for $10,000, and his certificate of church membership "iu good and regular stand? ing." The thing-is exceedingly unhand? some. Gen. Howard may bo.a very good man, but gifted with remarkable incapa? city aud superhuman gullibility; he may be a very bad man playing a game with consummate skill; but it is immaterial which he is, so far as the Government is concerned, while he has manipulated three-quarters of a million dollars from the Treasury. One thing looks badly for Gen. Howard. He has been apologized for and explained continually and inter? minably for a half dozen years. Every week or two, he has had tho benefit of a uew coat oi whitewash. He has required u vast deal of writing up. It looks sus? picious, lie has been explained too much by half. No honest man could staud so much puffery and palaver, so many polishing.'* and perfumings, as have beeu found necessary in his case. We see no harm in his being interested iu churches uud speaking in meetings; but what the public want to know is, how a mau can reconcile the holding of an office for which he knows ho is incom? petent, and iu whioh he is a confessed defaulter for nearly three-quarters oi a million, with any religion that recognizes common honesty as a virtue. To admit his honesty is to impeach his capacity? and au incapacity whi?h can no more be distinguished from a orime than two poas growing in the same pod can bo distinguished from eaoh other. Tho New York QHmes says there seoms to be no remaining doubt that Mr. Van derbilt and his friends will oontrol the great business of the Western Union Telegraph after the annual election of the company iu Ootober. The stiffness of the stock iu the last few days points to tho results which we have indicated, and there is evidently less inclination to sell it short. We are informed that the Patrons of Husbandry held a grand re-union at Ninety-Six on last Saturday, at which public addresses were delivered by Col. ! D. Wyatt Aiken, Dr. John A.
