Gen. Sckles tells us mainly what we know
already, that the Government Of Spain was
willing to concede to the Cubans their inde-
pendence if, upon laying down their arms
they voted to that effect-a proposition inc
lurking treachery of which the Cubans were
doubtless wise in rejecting. Marshal Prim's as
severation, as reported by Gen. Sickles, that the
Cubans hold no fort, no city. no ships, seems to
be in no wise different from the general
ground of non recognition. One OF our Con-
suls testifies at date of Oct. 10, that Slbanicu
and Guaimaro, two villages, are the only
places occupied by the insurgents, and that Oh
the I'd November both of these places were
destroyed. But what will testify to all our tes-

The City Canvassers finished their work yes
terday, and adjourned sine die. The attempt
to count out Florence Scannel, it seems, was a
failure. On Tuesday last they officially footed
up the vote-for Nesbit, 2,S9; for Scanned, 2,741;
majority for Nesbit, 7S. This reused the ire of
Scannel's friends, and their threats so alarmed
the Canvassers that at the last moment they
threw out two districts, so as to give Scanned
1904 and Nesbit $50 votes; majority for Sean
mel, "a. The throwing out Of these districts,
after all the protestatiOns in other cases that
the Canvassers could do neither more nor less
than count up and certify the returns Qeaving
contestants and prOtestants to settle with the
legislative bodies or the cOurts), is, in fact, an
acknowledgment of the power of the rapidly
augmenting anti Tammany faction. They were
willing enough to count out Scanned, but dare
not do it.
In the case of Nicholas Seger, anti Tammany,
who was reported to have 1888 votes for AL
derman of the Xth District, to 1911 for j. Will
liam Guntzer, theIwOrk was easy. The man
really elected was only peaceable Dutchman,
not fighting Irshman, and so there was no
danger of broken heads in putting Guntzer
up TO 1879 and Seger down to 1871. The
whole vote in this District is exhibited below,
and shows how the whole thing was managed !:
