Additional Particulars OF the Arrest
OF Tweed.

of Tweed.
MADRID, September 1.-THE follow.
ing are additional particulars of the
arrest of William NJ. Tweed: Captain
General Joveller, at Havana, received
intelligence that Tweed had disem.
barked at Santiago de Cuba, and notified
the authorities there. Before ,he latter
could take action Tweed embarked on a
sailing vessel the Carmen, bound 10
VIgo. Captain General Joyellar tele-
graphed to the Madrid government,
which, fearing that the Carmen might
go to some other port, requested the
authorities at all the Spanish ports to
examine the persons on board all vessels
named Carmen, as there are twelve Span
ish vessels of that name. A portrait of
Tweed being indispensable, the Spanish
authorities obtained and made
Copies OF n Caricature
in an American journal, representing
him as beating child, supposed TO
typify American justice. This csrica.
ture led the Spanish authorities and the
reporters of the Spanish papers TO believe
Tweed had had been kidnapping children; |;
hence, in the first official announcement
received OF the arrest Of Tweed, it was
stated that he had been arrested for kid
mapping American children. Tweed Is
con fined in the Isle of Saint Siwon, Nigo
Bay, where he is under quarantine,
Strictly Watched by Custom House
Guards.
At the expiration of his quarantine he
will be surrendered 10 the United States
AS there are no direct
steamers between Spain and North
Tweed will be sent 10 Cuba and
from there TO New York.

MEETING AT PARKERsBURG.

We have conversed with several gen.
tlemen who were at the Parkersburg
meeting, last Saturday. All accounts
agree that 1t was completely success
full and satisfactory affair in every parti-
culsr. Fully 5000 people-some put the
estimate much higher-were present at
the daylight meeting, and the number in
attendance at the night meeting was
only limited by the capacity
of the large court house,
to contain the throng who pressed for
admission. Gen. THos. EWING, of OHIO,
addressed the afternoon meeting. He is
u man OF elegant appearance, and speaks
with q smoothness, candor and earnest
ness that enlists the closest attention and
carries conviction to his hearers. During
Gen. EwINa's speech of over two hours
length, the vast audience gave him that
attention which sttested to the good
effects of the deliversnces Of the speaker.
The meeting was composed of
Democrats, COOPER men and Republi-
cans who were honestly seeking infor-
nation; and after the close of the sd-
dress all classes expressed themselves as
being not only fully satisfied but highly
pleased. Our informsnts say they have
numerous evidences of good having
been accomplished by Gen. EwINa's
speech. In another place in the paper
we give short synopsis of the speech,
and hopeto print it IN full in few days.
The evening meeting was addressed
by Gen. II. NJ. MATHEWS, in speech
bristling with telling facts and of great
power. Notwithstanding the fine repu-
tation which had preceded Gen. MATH-
Ews as a popular orator, his hearers were
fairly surprised at the grsndneSs of his
performance. All speak in terms of en-.
thuslsstic praise of his manly, statesman
like and telling address. After Gen.
MATHEWS closed, Gen. EWING
introduced to the audience Gen.
WARNER, of Marietta, a brave soldier
and heretofore an earnest Republican.
He spoke for short time in amost terse,
logical and effective manner, reviewing
the deplorable condition OF the business
of the country, tracing the causes and
and pointing out the remedies, closing
with declaration in favor ofthat change
in government which can only be hsd
by the election of TILDEN and the de-
feat of Grsntism.
Hon. JOHN j. DAVIS was then intro
duced and made probably the most tren-
chant little speech of his life. Altogether,
Saturday was q great day to the Democ-
rscy of Wood county. Gen. EWING pro-
nounced the meeting one Of the very
finest he ever saw of any party.

Mr.. MCVICKER of Chicago has initial
ed the reform of reducing the price OF
admission TO theatres by cutting down
the rates of his own. This is an idea
which has been kind of anvil chorus
with the Republican for some time. 1t is
no part of the duty of journal to seek
to interfere with the private business of
individuals or classes, but when
there is talk OF cut
ting down" the terms of stars and
turning out the middle-msn or agent al.
together, it is, perhaps, only just and
fair that the public should expect to re-
ceive crumb or two from the loaf OF
reform. Mr.. McVicker, an old and
successful manager, certainly thinks So,
for he has indorsed his opinion by the
best evidence in his power-his practice.
