Particulars Of the Capture of Oaxacn
by the Liberals-What the Victory
Accomplished.

NEW YORK, Nov. 26.-The Herald's
City of Mexico correspondent gives an
account of the capture of OaXaca by the
Liberals under Jean Diaz. The garri-
son of the city consisted of but about
one thousand six hundred men, who
bravely defended il against three times
their number. An attempt to reinforce
the garrison was mades by six hundred
Belgian and four hundred native troops,
but Diaz interrupted the party and
captured it. A strong force from
Telanacan met like fate about the
10Th instant. In the meantime some
five hundred Austrians forced their
way through Diaz's lines into the city.
and thus reinforced the garrison and
kept up the fight for several weeks,
repelling the attacks nearly every day.
Diaz fought his way through the city
and obtained possession of the plaza,
but for some days was unable to make
any effect upon the forts of Saint Dour-
lingo and Elcarten, until the 3lst ulti-
mo, when he forced the Austrians to
surrender.
The number of prisoners is between
1000 and 5000, and the capitulation is
signed on the part of the lmperlallsts
and others, by Baron Eurigu Egero and
Count Alberto de Kanuen. 4 large sup
ply of military stores was captured. and
several batteries of artillery were
among the prizes. The Austrians
fought well, but finally surrendered to
superior numbers.
The victory insures the peace of the
whole country south of Puebla, and
gives the Liberals large, well organ
lied and admirably equipped force with
which to operate in this valley, and
upon the Vera Cruz line. 1t also places
Puebla in danger, unless the French
prove themselves to be more active than
formerly.
The communication with the coast
will he cut of, and can be re-established
only at the cost of many lives.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 26.-During the

The Hog Markets.
ST.'LoUIs, November 81.

ST. LOUIS, November II.
Receipts yesterday were liberal,
amounting to 1900 head. Packers were
not in the market freely, and took only
about 300 head altogether at 80 eOa7 W
per 100 lbs gross. In retail way, sales
were made at 7a71c per lb. The market,
however, closed dull and weak. A de-
cline was admitted this morning, and
one of our packers was purchaser at 6a
6ic, mostly at outside figures, though
Republican.
CLEVELAND, November 2l.,
Very little is doing in hogs. Packers
are cutting only for their trade and ae-
tual orders, and are disposed to let the
future take care of itself. Live are hard
of sale Mt Sc O0a6 so for extra heavy, and
dressed sell slowly at SC for choice heavy
averages.-Leader.
DETROIT, November 81.
The recent sudden decline has caused
farmers to hold back their hogs, and
the weather has also been unfavorable,
so that upon the whole the supply has
been below the amount required for i'm
mediate use, and prices have rallied.
We now quote at s. 00a9 w net. To-day
some of our packers, who doubtless have
orders to fill ont, paid SO on for good lots,
but we need hardly add that this price
cannot be regarded as permanent. 1t is
becoming more and more apparent that
any dependence whatever upon the for
eiSn market as an outlet is most likely
to prove illusory, and all concerned
would do we'll to look the matter square
ly in the face, and be prepared for low

The market for hogs exhibits little
more activity, incident to the declining
rates. The quotations to-day were 6ia

New Schcmc for the Prosecution OF
Claims against the G overnmcut-De-
parfment Clerks Implicated.
New YORK, Nov. 26.-The Herald's
Washington special says: A new scheme
for the prosecution of claims against the
Government, entered into by Claim
Agents and certain Clerks in the De-
partment having charge OF the settle
ment of claims for officers back pay, mas
partially transpired here. 1t is charged
that these Clerks, who have access to
the muster rolls of the army, select from
the rolls the names of officers appearing
ON them as entitled under recent law
to present claims for arrears OF pay, and
cause such mustered-Out officers TO be
notified of the facts, at the same time
suggesting the name of a Claim Agent
best qualified to prosecute the claim for
them, thus throwing into the hands OF
the Claim Agent large amount OF bnsi-
ness. 1t is supposed that Clerks thus
interested share the profits.

NEW YORK, Nov. 26.-The Tribune's
Washington special says: A carefully
prepared bill, thoroughly recognizing
the Treasury Department; is now ready
for presentation to Congress, upon
whose attention it will be pressed early
in the session. Its passage will be earn
estly favored by Secretary Mccullough.
The effect of its becoming law will be
to prevent the use of the Department
for partizan ends, and will greatly III
crease its efficiency.
A bill has been prepared by leading
Congressman providing that an officer on
trial under impeachment shall be sus-
pended from exercising the functions OF
his Office during the trial, and whether
anything is done toward the imDeaeh-
ment of the President or not, it is prob
able that action will be had upon this
bill, with view to settling disputed
point of law.

Chief Justice Chase Impartial snf-
frage.

New York, November 1.-THE
Posts Washington special says con-
flicting rumors are afoat respecting
Mr. Chase's second interview with the
President. IL is said that the ques-
ton of impartial suffrage was dis
cussed, but all the statements thus far
are unreliable and unworthy Of cred
ence, as neither Mr.. Chase or the
President have communicated W !
concerning the conversation. All
that is known is that three or four in
dividual Democrats aud Republicans
here advised the President to recon-
mend impartial suffrage to the South
in his message.
The Herqlds Washington special
says CHEZ Justice Chase il at the
Whip House again this evening, in
consultation with the President upon
the subject of the compromise meas
ures which the leaders Of both the
principal parties are now urging upon
Mr.. johnson. The compromise is
mid to consist in Offering 20 the South
general amnesty, reconsideration Of
their accepting universal suffrage,
with a quail iioation either of property
or intelligence. It is believed that
this measure will be well received by
all parties. The President seems in
clined to give the subject a fair and
full consideration.
The Cabinet meeting to-day was at
tended by all the members, with the
exception Of the Attorney General,
who is on visit TO New York. The
meeting lasted several hours. nj
A Times Washington special says
Chief Justice Chase was again with
the President o-night, and remained
with him until late hour, inter
changing views with him relative to a
proposition mentioned in our last
nights dispatches, proposing general
amnesty in consideration for qualified
suffrage
Gov. Swami and several members
of Congress were, also, in waiting for
an interview with the President, but
the evening being spent in consnlta-
ton with Judge Chase, the rest Of the
visitors failed to see the President.
The amnesty suffrage proposition
meets with almost universal approba-
ton from the Representative of all
parties here assembled VF8as
The World's Washington special
says an authoritative denial IN fur
nished Of the story that Chief JUS
tice Chase had an audience with the
President last night, relative 10 the
question of extending universal am
nesty to. the South in return for
partial suffrage. His interview re-
lated to the causes for the delay in
