AS to the $4,000 prize, various similar
reports were circulated, and among them
one that it had been won BY negro
woman.
A man named Harvey, of San Jose, is
reported to have drawn prize Of $1,000.
Mr. King, reporter Of the Call, reports
himselfwinner OF $500. So far as known,
no Cinnamon drew prizes, although hun

Another report was circulated this
afternoon that Walter Poor, clerk on
Front street, had won the $4,000 prize.
MORE EXCITEMENT ABOUT THE FIRST PRIZE.
At the time Of writing this report there
was still a question as to who won the
800 900 prize. The old lady who is
mentioned above, and who is about eighty
years Of age--ccrtainly old enough to
tell the truth--declared from the plat
form that she had no ticket in the con-
cern. Mr.. Peters stated that the winning
ticket had been sold in this State. Sew
eral persons in the crowd appeared to
think they had the lucky number One
man claimed to have it, and jumping up
with ticket in his hand started from
the building. He was followed out and
down Post to Kearney street by about a
thousand people. This man proved to
be Mr.. Lederer, dry goods dealer on
Kearney street. We called on this gen
tleman at his store and he informed us
that he did not hold the lucky ticket;
that it was a mistake; but that he held
within one of the right figure.
The latest statement yesterday was to
the effect that the 100000 prize was
won by S. W. Lederer.
Another report, as we 60 TO press, is
that the 100000 ticket was bought by
the Wormser Brothers in a pool Of los,
and sent to q club of purchasers in New
York.

that he saw and examined the ticket.
Isador Wormser informs us that he
purchased one hundred and five tickets
on the 9TH of September for his brother,

How BISMARCK CLINCHEs THE UNION OF
THE GERMANS tells them that Prussia is
not fighting for territorial aggrandizement
that she does not wish it that she will leave
autonomy and guarantee its preservation, and
will never take the initiative to induce them
to enter the North German Confederation;
that she has no intention Of trespassing on the
seaboard of Holland, and after the successful
issue of the war she will compensate Den
mark for her neutrality. This is the diplomacy
of statesman who knows when to speak and
what to say. On the several points suggested
he clinches the union of the Germans and the
neutrality Of Holland and Denmark.

CAVALRY AT DIsooUNT.-In one of their
recent battles it is reported that body of
French cavalry, the Eighth cuirassiers,
attacked the Eighteenth Prussian infantry,
and that when the French were at o distance
of a hundred yards they were exterminated by
the Prussian fire. This affair, then, shows
that against the needle gun a charge of
cavalry Is criminal sacrifice of the horsemen

limited to Reconnaissance in advance of the
army, to the pursuit of broken and retreating
detachments of the enemy, to foraging excur-
sions, and to the services Of the rear guard

Father Hyaciatne on the Dogma.

Father Hyacinthe protests as resolutely al
ever against the dogma of Papal infallibility.
In the long letter which he has lately published
he denies that Catholics are bound to accept
the dogma, because, in the frat place. for an
Ecumenical Council to have any authority it
must be perfectly free, and in his opinion the
| recent Council has not been free, as is proved
by the repeated protests Of many illustrious
bishops; and, In the next place, the represen-
tative character Of the Council will not be
admitted by the Church at large, inasmuch as
the bishops, who are the witnesses Of faith,
are limited beforehand by that very character.
They can therefore only exercise their ftInc-
tons on truths which have always and every
where been acknowledged. He believes that
they have exceeded the powers con6ded to
them; that the Church cannot recognize the
arbitrary work accomplished, and the
Council will remain without authority.
He infers that there is now greater
danger Of schism than there has ever
been before. He appeals to q council really
free and ecumenical Above all, he appeals
to God. ''Men," he exclaims, shave been i'm
pulssant to secure the triumph of truth and
justice; let the Almighty arise and take His
cause in hand and Judge it. The Council,
which was to be a work of light and peace,
has intensified the darkness and unclaimed
discord in the religious world. War responds
to 1t as terrible echo in the social system.
War is scourge Of God but in bringing the
chastisement may 1t not therefore prepare the
remedy2 In removing the ancient edifce may
1t not clear the ground on which the Divine
Spouse of the Church will construct the New
Jerusalem2" 1t is manifest that In making
this solemn protest against the dogma of infal-
libility Father Hyacinthe has not had before
his eyes the fear Of the Popes Legates, who
have justissued a formal condemnation of ''lhe
writer's who deny the liberty of the delibera-
tons of the Council" Meanwhile Father
Hyacinthe, after having left the pulpit, has
laid aside the pen and shouldered tho musket
as private in company of volunteers for
the defence of Paris.

ALGERIA IN STATE or SIEaE.-At the be-
ginning of the Franco-Prussian war thirty
thousand French troops were withdrawn
from Algeria. The extraordinary success
which has been won thus far by the
Prussian invaders of France will ne
cessitate, it is thought, the speedy with
drawal of fifteen thousand more French troops
from country which it has already cost so
much life and treasure to conquer and colo
nize. Most Of the Arab chiefs, indeed. have
become at length accustomed to French rule,
but many of them, especially the border chiefs,
have never been 80 completely subdued as to
prevent the necessity of maintaining in Algeria
very large military force. 1t is not surpris-
ing, therefore, that the withdrawal Of great
part Of this force should oblige the imperial
government to declare Algeria in state Of
siege--that is, to put it under martial law.

TRANSATLANTIC VIRws OF WAR.-During

but that the Northerners took all the towns.
1t strikes us that similar movements are now
