MALTA, August 27, 1875.
The United States steamer Hartford left
Tripoli yesterday, arrived at Malta this even
ing and proceeded to Memel on her way
homeward. The difficulty between the
American Consul and the Tripolitans was
settled on Thursday, an apology having
been made to the Consul in accordance with
orders from the Porte. Nevertheless, the
matter, which originated in some sea-
men entering the Consuls garden for
matches, is considered undignifed and
paltry. The American Consul is isolated
from his colleagues except the Dutch and
Belgian. He is unnecessarily alarmed, and
intended starting for Malta in the Congress
on Friday evening.

THE NEWS GIVEN TO TWEED.
Ready to Surrender TO Sheriff Who is
Waiting to Rearrest Him.

William NJ. Tweed sat in his room yes
terday morning, as usual, entering the
names of new hospital patients, and the
prescriptions ordered for old ones. He
leaned over his desk apparently absorbed
in his work, and seemed to have no inter
est in anything beyond it. But when the
door opened and Mr. Foster Dewey. his
private secretary in more plainly days,
showed his smiling Fface, Mr.. Tweed start
ed to his feet He did not say a word, but
it was plainly to be seen from the express
sion of his face that he had read in the
countenance of his old friend good news
Behind Mr.. Dewey were Warden Fox and
the big and genial Tom Brennan, commits
sioner of charities and correction. Both
of these gentlemen beamed with delight,
and if Mr.. Dewey's face had not already
told the good news Mr.. Tweed could not
have failed to read it in their looks. But
lie did not speak. Resuming his seat he
looked anxiously and expectantly at Mr.
Dewey, as though awaiting an announce
ment.
Il am happy to inform you, Mr.. Tweed, .
said Warden Fox, that the court of ap-
peals haye decided your case in your ia
yor."
Mr.. Tweed, with just faint suspicion
of flush on his face, and with hesitation
of moment replied:
"Oh, l expected that. Do you know
how the court STOOD"
THE decision was unanimous" said Mr.
Dewey
Il am glad of that" replied Mr.. Tweed
with sig of relief.
Then the friends sat down together ant
conversed for a few minutes, Mr. Tweed
received the news with more GOODNESS thar
his friends had anticipated, explaining tina
he had looked for favorable decision fo
some weeks, although he acknowledged
that the unanimous decision of the cour
had taken him somewhat by surprise. Be
ing told that sheriff officer was on tn
island awaiting his release in order to tax
him into custody on civil suit for six mill
ions of dollars, he said that he had no wis

Now, Judge, may ask if the court

difficulty or antagonism?'
Without difficulty?-no. There has

gave more anxious care and study With
out antagonism? -yes. There can be no

THE DEMOCRATS IN CONGRESS REPUDIATE THEIR
CLAIMS TO POSITIONS IN THAT BoDY-MR. COZ
PROVIDES HAPPY RELEASE.
Special Dispatch 10 the New York Times.
WAsHINaroN, Dec II.
MIR. Fort, OF Iinoia, offered a resolution which
caused great deal Of excitement on the Demo-
cratic side and much merriment among Republ-
cans. MIR. Cox may claim the credit Of having
delivered the Democrats out of the hands Of
their enemies with as little loss as was possible
under the circumstances. Mr.. Fort offered a
resolution expressing the sense OF the House
that in the appointments OF subordinates under
the officers of the House, wounded Union sol
diers not disabled from performing duty should
be preferred. Such resolution would have
passed unanimously few years ago but now,
when sixty four or sixty-fve members Of the
House have to take modified oath, and when
more ex- Confederate soldiers than Union men
are appointed to it's offices, so that Northern
Democrats are complaining that they were on
the wrong side during the war to get office now,
such proposition presented very embarrass-
ing dilemma. A direct vote on it could
not of course be permitted, so the de-
mand for the previous question was vo-
ted down by strict party vote, in order to
was made by Mr.. Cox who at the same time
offered resolution that, the union Of the States
being restored, all citizens were equally entitled
to appointments to Office under the Government.
This was considered such happy release that
several Democrats came down to Mr.. Coxs desk
and shook hands upon it. The resolution was
referred to committee, and Union soldiers are
referred to some future House of Representa-
tives for appointments.
