THE LATEST TELEGRAMS.

We gather the following from last
evenings News:
Many army officers are availing
themselves of the new law Of Con-
gress and resigning. The law allows
those who resign a years pay.
The following shocking account Of
the atrocities of the Spaniards in Ha-
vana comes by way of New York:
An account of the shocking treat
ment of Cuban ladies by the Spaniards
in Havana appears in correspondence
from that city. On the sd ultimo, 20
prisoners. all women and children,
reached Havana by railway, and
were lead from the depot to pris-
on under guard, all of them, even
the children only five and six
years old, being tightly pinioned
by the arms. At the head OF the sad
procession marched two handsome
Young ladies of IS years, both hand
cutfed. One is the daughter-in-law of
President Cespedes; the other is the
daughter of General Figuerro, recent
ly garroted in Santiago. The ladies
were all members of the best families
on he island. As these unfortunate
creatures passed through the streets.
a Spanish mob jeered and threatened
them, and in instances attempted VIC
lence.
There is nothing particularly inter-
esting from the European war. The
Prussians are perfectiny their arrange
mentS for the siege of Paris.
Greenbacks in San Francisco are
quoted al 50, selling.
The run on the Uibcrnia Savings
Bank has pretty much subsidized.

Sunday evening the news of the fall OF
Strasbourg and Tout were received by
the Government and this morning
made public. The BoulevardS We're
crowded. Every one was aStOni>hed.
and many refused to credit the news.
The Herald's correspondent at Cler-
mont says the Garde Mobile has an ar
tillery, while every German force of
500 have proportionate number of
field guns. The Mobiles are di>cour-
aged and are anxious for the stoppage
of the war. 1t is evident that between
Rouen and Clermont. within a day or
two. the most serious engagement
which has vet occurred between the
Mobiles and Germans Will occur. The
Mobiles are IN )ving up masses of
troops from points outside to occupy
the north of Picardy and the east of
Normandy, the orders from Paris and
Tours being TO prevent the formation
of a second Gordon at any cos; blt the
hope of 4 successful defense of any
towns in the north and northwest of
France seems utterly hopeless in the
present broken condition of the scat
tered forces.

One of the absurd errors of the war, repeated
in most of the obituaries of Gen. Lee, is that
which credits Mcclellan with having out
generated Lee in West Virginia in 1861. In
point of fact Mcclellan had nothing to do with
Lee in West Virginia, Lee not having COM
mand of the Rebel forces there until after Nc
Clellan had been withdrawn to Washington.
Lee was however, completely out-generaled in
that campaign, the only one in which Rebel
authorities agree with our own in pronOuncing
this judgment upon his work. The General who
opposed him, outwitted him, and defeated his
forces under Reynolds at Rich Mountain, Floyd
at Carnifex Ferry and Wise ON the Gauley,
was William S. ROsecrans.

We report at length the interesting proceed
ings of the Congress which has been discussing
for two days past at Cincinnati various points
of Prison Reform. The subject is one OF prl-
mary Importance which has been slowly but
surely attracting the attention of refomers
throughout the country, and greatly extending
the influence of the National Prison Congress.
1t will eventually reach the State legislators,
through whom the end aimed at must be at
tanned. We may then expect that criminals
will be treated as men, not as wild beasts, ana
educated with a view to reformation, not
utter moral ruin. We hope to see the abol-
ton of many of the cruel practices and much
of the false teaching of our present prisons,
as well as of many of the prisons themselves
Ludow-st. jail in this city, for instance, Is
nothing more nor less practically than
debtors prison, surprising in wretchedness the
London Marshalsea in its worst state, and
maintained seemingly for the benefit OF the
Sheriff. The action of the Prison Congress
will have also an indirect infence upon legls-
laton for the reformation of our criminal laws
and the abolition of capital punishment.
When imprisonment of the proper kind is sub
stituted for hanging, the crime of murder VIII
be more promptly and frequently punished.

Does Tammany really wish to convince us
of its honesty in the discharge of public
trusts7 Here is golden opportunity. There
is widespread belief that thousands of place
men draw the salaries of sinecure positions.
Why docs not the Controller silence the SLAM
derers by publishing a list Of the recipients of
the public fundsi Who could possibly be in
jured but the opponents of Tammany by such
publication if the common belief is not we'll
founded7 If the list is not published shall we
not be justified in assuming that Tammany is
paying the debts contracted in managing the
last Legislature by quartering its servitors
upon the City treasury.

Those members of the Associated Press VINO
pratifed their jealousy of THE TRIBUNE for
its success in procuring news of the war, by
slandering it by resolution, have met with
mishap. They directed that their attack upon
us should be telegraphed to the press OF the
country. But the agents representing the
various associations that pay the bills
respectfully declined that undertaking, and
the document went into the waste
basket. Meantime, the General Agent OF the
Western Associated Press, hearing OF the mat
ter, and knowing that the press of the entire
country outside of New-York had received as
a courtesy from THE TRIBUNE, and absolutely
without charge, fifty-six thousand dollars
worth of most important and eagerly sought
news sent orders that THE TRIBUNE'S response
to this wanton attack should be telegraphed In
full. TWAS a generous and graceful recognition
by this powerful body of influential newspapers,
extending from the Allegheny Mountains
to the farthest West; and while it affords us
some amusement thus to see our New ork
engineers hoist with their own petard, weconfess
that our principal qualification comes from the
evidence thu our course towards our friends OF
the press outside New-YOrk has been appre-
ciated and is remembered.

Bazaine's most desperate effort to b eak away
from Metz was made on the 18th inst, and was
promptly thwarted after bloody battle. A de-
tailed description from our special correspond
ent published elsewhere, reveals the holiness
and persistence with which Bazaine struggles !;
but it also tells how hopeless are his strongest
efforts. The frequency and desperate charac-
ter Of his sorties would seem to indicate that
the Marshal has no intention of surrendering !;
but to the military minds who direct the army
watching him, they are doubtless proof OF the
necessity he is under to escape. If the truth
were known it would, perhaps, appear that his
army is better supplied with ammunition than

An explanation, possibly true though seem
ingly absurd, of Bourbaks mysterious mission
is given in our special dispatches from Tours.
1t is said that the Empress Eugene desired to
send her SON to Metz that he might be with
the army most likely to sustain the Empire if
restored, and the scheme was abandoned only
when Bourbali intimated that the Prince In
perial would not be safe with the soldiers. 1t
is further intimated, without the submission of
any proofs, however, that Count Bismarck was
party to the intrigue. This we shall be in no
haste TO credit.

TAMNANYS TAXATION.

The amount of money demanded this year
from city taxpayers by Messrs. Sweeny,
Tweed g. Co. is given in the Corporation organ
as $23,566,2 4O 10. But there is certain to be a
bill of more than ten per cent for defcien-
cies, and we shall be within the mark if we
put the cost of governing the City of New
York for 1870 at about 500 coo, 900. Now, we
have a resident population, including all sorts,
of about 931 00O and the rate of taxation is there
fore no less than $29 10 for every inhabitant, in
Guiding rich and poor, citizens and aliens, men,
women, and children. And this is all outside
of the heavy drains by way of assessments for
sewers, pavements, &C., which are taken
directly from the property, and do not
appear in the Tax Levy. There are instances
in which the victim has been not only taxed
as above described, but assessed heavily for
worthless pavement assessed for sewer,
assessed for street opening half mile away.
until the entire revenue from his property has
been swallowed up, and he has been obliged
to draw from other sources for the demands
of the tax collector, when, in common Justice.
his property should have produced from five
to ten per cent clear Of all charges.
Just look at the figures. Here is a table
showing the amount of money obtained from
the taxpayers by the Tsmmany Thieves since

TAlfAAYY NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

TAMMANY REPUBLICANS-ATTEN !
A number of men, holding office in the Tax
Commission and other branches of the City
Government likewise have places on Republic
can Committees OF in other responsible posts
in our organization. There are other Republl-
cans who hold Office for a specified term OF
years, in consequence of some past arrange
ment with the two political parties at Albany.
These last are not Immediately dependent on
Tammany, and we have at least a right to ex-
pect them to stand by the Republican party,
and give it their whole influence.
But the Republicans who hold office at the
mere will of Tammany Hall are differently
situated. Their official life depends on their
giving satisfaction to those who appoint them.
They cannot do this and give satisfaction like
wise in places of trust to the party to which
they profess to belong. Ye cannot serve COD
and AIammon. Gentlemen holding Office at
the will of Tammany, in Tax Commissions
or elsewhere we call on you to resign your
places under Tammany, or your places on
Republican Committees

gold conspiracy in Wall-st.P Strong parties
are reported to be banded together for the
purpose of forcing gold to a much higher pre-
MUM. Meanwhile the market is ready for
whatever the Secretary chooses to throw upon
it, and he has at his command an amount of
gold and currency lying idle in the Treasury
vaults abundantly sufficient to defeat any pos
sible conspiracy. 1t cannot be possible that
such panic AZ was suffered September of last

abundant power to prevent it.

A EEV ETETPES

II may not be amiss to call the attention of
those who decry any other test of the value
of the Democratic policy now desOlating the
Canal domain, while increasing its cost than
one founded on its actual results, to this cir
cumstance-that the fiscal year does not cor
respond with the calendar year, nor does the
annual statement of the one exhibit the results
of the other. The fiscal year ends September
so. The annual statement of the present fiscal
year therefore will include the business and
income during the Fall months of 1859, when
the Republican and constitutional rates of toll
prevailed. The results of the answering Fall
months of this year will of necessity be alb
SENT so that statement covering the
calendar year 1870 can alone display
the fruits of the business of an entire season
under the direction of Tammany and its con-
federates Let us contrast, however, the
actual results of the present season so far as
they have been realized with those of CORE
spending terms of the two years preceding.
We subjoin from official sources a statement
of the receipts, expenditures, and surplus in
each of the years named therein, from April
/ to Aug. 81:

q" The latest dispatches leave several districts
still in doubt. but indicate as the net result of
the October elections the loss of five Republican
Congressmen-a loss greater than we were
willing to consider probable, but by no means
so great as our opponents had ex-
pected. In Pennsylvania we have prob
ably lost five Congressman and gained
one; the Districts lost, according to the
latest indications, being the With, XVIIth, XHth,
XXIst and XXIVth, and that gained being the
XIIth, where Judge Woodward, by all odds the
best Democratic member Pennsylvania has
had in Congress, is defeated by L. d. Shoe
maker. In Ohio we have gained two Con-
gressmen, Aaron F. Perry in the list District
over p. w. Strader, the present incumbent, and
son; and have lost two, Schenck in the
Hid District and McLung in the WITH.
| Gen. Schenck, however, is expected to
contest the election on the ground of the ex-
clusion from the polls of soldiers from the
! National Soldiers Home in Montgomery
County. With their votes he would
undoubtedly be elected, and it is possible that
he may yet be saved to the public service. In
Indiana we lose one Congressman, Gen. Manson
being elected in the With District over Gen.
Lew Wallace. In the Legislature the Senate
is tied, and the Democrats have eight
majority in the House, while their
majority on the State ticket now
appears to be about 1000. Iowa and Nebraska
are, of course, heavily Republican. We pre-
sumo the Democrats are now willing to aban-
don their hope of controlling the next Congress.

The reported success of the Germans at
Orleans is augmented by their own official
reports. They claim that Orleans was carried
by storm, and that 10000 prisoners were taken.
1t is apparent that large French force is
gathering on the Loire, south of Orleans, and
it is also as clear that the Germans mean to
attack it. The defeat of this army would be
almost fatal to the French cause, and would
throw the whole southwest open to the raw
ages of the German Uhlans.
