Thursday Evening, Jan. 27, 187G.
WITH a, forethought, altogether commendable, the New York Rspr.blicau.s have already engaged fifty rooms in the leading hotel of Cincinnati for the week of the convention. It is no part of their purpose to be housekfjj and homeless when they are fixing the nation's destiny.
AFTER having been bored to the verge of distraction by that little anecdote about Hank Monks ride with Horace Greeley, it is a little too much to be forced to read in every paper in the land the floating paragraph that that miserable California stage driver is a drunkard and a pauper. Let the item read, he is a suicide, and be done with him.
A MEDIUM of great repute, who has been materializing spirits to the great delectation of the faithful, was caught in Memphis the other night. A young man of an inquiring turn of mind, struck a light when the ghostly visitants were treading the stage, and found, as might have been expected, tho medium wrapped in a sheet. One by one the mediums fail.
STOKES, the murderer of Fisk, has again failed in his effort to be released from prison. What he wants to get out for, or what he intends to do when out, might puzzle his attorneys more than the preplexmg question of how to secure his release. A pampered son of idleness and luxury, he has been a loafer and libertine from his youth up, and will always be a loafer. No one bears him any especial ill will for eliminating Jim Fiske from tlie problem of metropolitan life which he did so much to muddle, but the world rather enjoys the spectacle of this surviving member of this noble brotherhood, looking out at it through looped and latticed windows.
A NEW YORK Judge recently rendered a decision which is certainly novel. The facts of the case are embodied in the following editorial item takeu from the \Now York Evening Telegram, and with the comments of the Telegram constitute what might be called interesting reading.
One of the promises of Mr. Tittlebat Titmouse to his constituents in his celebrated canvBS3 ior the borough of Yatton, was the introduction of a bill into Parliament to make every pint bottle hold a quart. It was a promise that nevor was fulfilled and such also, we fear, will be tho fate of tho more commendable undertaking of Judge Robertson, of our Court of Common Pleas, to make a quart bottle hold a quart, which it has not done since the first French revolution. At the trial, last Friday, of a suit brought by one liquor dealer against another to restrain the defendont from using the plaintiffs trade mark on his packages, this upright Judge ruled that the plaintiff's pretended quart bottles were not entitled to judicial protection, because they hold only twenty-three thirtieths of a pint.
It i3 with profound regret that we express our belief that this dociston will not stand in the higher courts, to which an appeal has doubtless been taken, for the roason that in mercantile parlanco in our own generation, as in those of our fathers and grandfathers the word ''quart," when applied to bottle, never has beon understood to be a warranty of the capacity of the vessel. Nevertheless, the political possibilities suggested by Judge Robertson's noble sentiments are of the first importance. Governor Tildeu is seeking a political policy in which he can unite all kinds of good men in his support for tlie Presidential nomination. Here is his chance. What can be more popular with the people of New York, without distinction of party, than a special message to the Legislature, recommending tbo passage of a law to enlarge the dimensions of all glass bottles? A non-partizan commission than could bo constituted, to consist of Mr. Samuel Ward, ol Washington, as chairman. We will gurranteo that the report of such a commission upon the contents of glass bottles would be impartial. The same success that would crown the movement in New York would attend it in a national campaign. Tlie old enthusiasm of the days of "hard cider and log cabins" could be revived. "Tilden and a square drind!" er "Tilden and an honest quart bottle!" This would sweep the continent from New Brunswick to Mexico.
Failures. NOT SO BAD.
Louisville, Ky., Jan. 21.—The statement in the telegram published yesterday, concerning financial depression at Paris, Ky., is partly incorrect, as the twenty persons were simply losers by the failure of two firms. There is no occasion for any great excitement, and the people at a distance can be assured that Paris and Bourbon financially, are as sound as any other part of the State.
A RUSSIAN FAILURE.
Riga, Russia, Jan. 26.—The first die patch about the failures here yesterdav, was incorrect. One large firm, not two, failed. Its liabilities are $1,628,200, and its assets $1,730,000.

THE SPANISH COKTKH.
London, Jan. 2".—A Madrid dispatch says opposition in the Oortos will include throe Republicans, Castolar, fierreclare and AiKl°da three Radical5!, Marquis of Sardoal, C'onde liens and Olavarrieta: oO to -10 Constitutionalists, among theiii ore Ragesta,Balarner,Una, Comacho and Rolero Ortiz 100 to 120 Yeo, Catholic, Moderate and .'55 to 40 parlizans not of Catholic unity, who support the Government generally, except on religious questions. Tho Upana, a clerical organ, regrets that the elections were not held immediately after Alfonso was first King, in which case tho Catholic vnity would have heon assured. This utterance is thought to indicate that tho principles of religious unity will be sustained.
THE SPANISH INSURRECTION. The latest advices from Renteria, report that the battle continues to-day between Arcbulegui and Santiago Meneli. Intelligence has been received that the Carlists in force are occupying positions north of the Andoain. An Alfonsist force has landed at Guetaria. A dispatch dated Hendage, and received at Paris, claims that the Carlists have been defeated.
WHY THE CABLE I1REAIC3. London, Jan. 2G.—The Times, in a financial article, says: The following letter makes a statement of an extraordinary kind with regard to the frequent ruptures of tho Direct Cable Company's wire: "It is hardly possible to believe that the malicious conduct of the kind here pointed out could be adopted for any save sinister purposes, and for the sake of all concerned it is to be hoped that the fullest investigation may be made as to the delay which occurred in making the successive breakages known." We are informed that on this last occasion the company sent word to the Stock Exchange before 11 o'clock in the morning. So that the responsibility of keeping back the announcements does not rest with the Direct United States Caqlo Company.
London, Jan.. 23.—Sir: In your article of to-day you say respecting the direct United States cable. It appears that the news of the interruption was again known in the market to certain speculators, at least fifteen minutes before tho notice was posted in the stock exchange, and during that short period tlie Anglo American stock jumped up nearly two per cent. While fully appreciating your laudable endeavor to stop an infamous system of gambling, which cannot be too strongly condemned, I beg to assure you that tho evil lies much deeper than it appears at first sight, and that you may do a great public service in supporting the directors of the Direct United States Cable Company in obtaining a public inquiry into these nefarious proceedings for bringing the parpetrators to justice. It is an undonbted fact that tho ruptures of the direct United Stntss cable,
-which
have occurred in regular succession since the line opened have been known to certain operators on the stock exchange, not hours, but some days before they happened, and it is equally certain, that the ruptured cable was, in every case, sound and perfect, up to the very moment when communication ceused and that the ruptured ends which have been brought home, prove beyond all doubt, that the rupture was coused by violent means, in a depth exceeding that of the dragging anchors, under ordinary circumstances. Signed, ED. II. LU3NNIATON,
Chairman.
THE ALPHONSISTS.
London, Jauuary 20.—A special to the Times, dated Hendage, Jan. 2Gth, says the Alfonsists have withdrawn from both flanks of tho Carlists, but still occupy the positions they captured around Hernaui. T»vo battallions landed at Guetaria, have captured the Carlists positions, commanding the town.
THE HERZEGOVINIANS.
London, January 26.—A telegram to the Times dated Stagno, Dalmatia, the 2Gth, reports that the insurgents in Heizegoviuia have concentrated their forces on the road to Trepiage, and a battle is expected to take place to day. In consequence of the news of the rising in Crete, an Austrian corvatte has been ordered to the island. Two thousand extra workmen aro engaged on the armaments at Palo.
THE EASTERN QUESTION. London, Jan. 26.—A Berlin corrcs pondent of the Times, telegraphs that the threatened collision between Porte and Montenegro, has once more changed the aspect of the Eastern question. He quotes an important statement in the Montenegro Official Gazette, that Turkey is determined to make war on Montenegro,and says the article throughout is a justification of insurrection, and a justification of the Turkish Government. It declares that Montenegro was so conformed to the requirements of International war. If Turkey acts differently. Montenegro will be relieved from all restraint, and forced to adopt any measures calculated to protect herself and secure the future of the Servian race. The article concludes: no regards for any one or anything wiil fetter our action.
GARIBALDI.
London, Jan. 26.—A dispatch from Rome reports that Garibaldi presided yesterday at a meeting of the survivors of the country' battle. His suggestion lor a formation of an association of these survivors, with branches throughout Italy, was unanimously adopted. Garibaldi appeared to be in excellent health,

Berne, -Jan. 26.—The inter-national postal congress haa agreed to admit the British, Iudia and French colonies into the postal union. The question of admitting other colonies is reserved until next congress, the time ior the meeting of which will be appointed tomorrow.
RELIGIOUS TOLERATION.
Madrid, Jan. 2(i.—The Cronesta believes that the cortes will approve of the clause in tho Constitution establishing religious toleration. f'.VRMST DKFKATH. •S.iu Sebastian, Jan, 26.—Ganeral Quenla's division has carried several very important Car list positions between Htrmini and Lcsarte, and occupied Autonenoa with lhe right winpr restihg on Beneniea.

It has occupied tho heights commanding the road between Oryazun and Astigaraga, General Moreenes has returned to San Sebastian after visiting ho liner battle up at Renteria. Gen. Morales'division is acting as reserve, and threatens Aratiziu.
DEATH OF A CA11LI3T GENERAL. London dispatches received here announce tho death of the Carlist General Elio.
FRENCH POLITIG'3.
London, Jan. 26.—A Times Paris telegram says it seems cjrtain that the Senate in no case will obtain a purely ministerial majority, as M. Buflet understands tho term. The Cabinet could only find a majority, by tho support of four anti-Republican groups, including the Irreconsilablo Bonapartists and ultra Legitimists, or by the union of the Left with Ministeralists. M. Buffet must renounce the least co-op-eration from the moderate Left. Tne Leon, Say and Ferary incident has placed an impassable barrier between the Left Center and him. M, Buffet then cau only govern with the four groups of the Right. He resolutely pushes the Moderate Left towards the radical Left and himself becomes prisoner of Bonapartists of all shades, being forcod at the same time to reckon on the supportof the Legitimists. Such a combination would bo a signal for the most disastrous complications. If France is really to be saved, another policy must prevail and a policy that is liberal, moderate and firm against all violence and agitation. This policy is only possible with the Left center.Haj--pily tho good sense and honest ideas of President NcMahon suffice to reassure France, and we may be certain that the next session will open under a Cabinet realizing the promises of moderate men of all parties.
DEAD.
Paris,Jan. 2,—Ilippo'yto Dusard,tho Statesman, is dead. THIERS a AM BUTT A A C3.
Paris, Jan. 26.—Another meeting of the Senatorial delagates, elected in the department of Sione, was held to-day, Thiers, Gambebta and Victor Hugo, wore present. There was considerable discussion, and the meeting ultimately terminated without passing any resolution arranging for another meet ing. The leadors seemed to recognize the impossbility of arriving at any solution on the present occasion. At the conclusion of the meeting, Gambetta stated that the several names will be returned at the first ballot for Senators, and if necessary an agreement will certainly be established at the second ballot.
THE BOSrO\ F«RC!E(tIES.
Tlie Boston Post in a Bad Boston, Jan. 26.—The alleged over issue of stock of the Boston Post company has seriously complicated, matters, and the holders of it as collateral cannot tell whether their certificates are fraudulent or genuine. Mr. Winslow controlled the stock board to suit himself, and as be did not hesitate to forge the names of persons to notes, it is probable that he manufactured cer tificates to suit his wants. There are missing stocks and certiioates from the back part of the certificate books, and it is said that one hundred and seventy five shares of false stock aro known to be in existence. Mr. Porter has found some fraudulent certificates, which he will turn over to the trustees to be appointed to take charge of the Boston Post.
Woacester, Jan. 26. -The Gaz3tt9 will publish the following statement of L. W. Pond, manufacturer, who was sentenced yesterday to the State's prison, for heavy forgeries. Ho was a personal friend of tho ab3condiug Winslow, of Boston. To the Editors of tlie Evening Gazette:
Having seen in the papers suggestions of collusion between myself and E. D. WinBlow, I wish to state briefly that neither Winslow nor any other person or persons had any knowledge of my irregularities,neither did 1 have any knowledge of or interest in Mr. E. D. Winslow's reported irreglarities.
Boston, January 26.—This afteanoon warrants were issued by the Municipal Co for tho arrest of Winslow, on tho complaints of the National Exchange bank and tho Third National bank, charging him with forgery and altering two notes of five thousand dollars each. It is said that some of the victimized banks have taken legal steps against certain parties who were aware of Winslow's iorgeries weeks ago, and condoned the offience and kept silence upon his taking up the paper which were their, forged endorsement.

EVIDENCE IN THI: M'KEE CASE AT ST. LOUIS.
I'lu Crooked Elsewhere.
(St. Louw, Jan.
2r—1Tlie
following
i3 a continuation of the evidence of Magrue: The question was, what conversation had you with .Leavenworth at the time you paid two share3 of the ring money each week relative to the disposition of those amounts?
Witness -"I gave the two packages each week to John Leavenworth, as per order from Joyce to deliver oue to McKee aud the other to Ford. Joyce told me that as Ford was collector and McKee AN INFLUENTIAL NEV/SP^ I'EK MAN, it was necessary to have them in the ring. The two-fifths was always paid to Leavenworth for those gentlemen. I occasionally talked to Leavenworth about what he did with the money thus given to him, aud always understood he delivered it to McKee and Ford. In November, 1872, McDonald.and Joyce said that the os» teusible object of the ring was ac» complished aud it was time to quit. The election being over I very readily agreed to it. During the time I was collector for the ring, no money whatever was set aside for political purposes,"
Macklot Thompson, Rudolph W. Ulrick and L-uis Teuscher, distillers, and Wm. J. Basset, an ex-gauger, gave a history of their connection with the riug, but stated nothing against or even about McKee and nothing was brought out
011
their
cro33 examination. JOSEPH M. FITZROY recalled and testified to having arranged an interview between McKee and Magrue at Lindell hotel. After the interview terminated the witness walked down town with McKee told him that Magrue was a bad man, that he (McKee) had to pay him money thathe had to pay him $2,500Wituess then made along statement about the destruction of the records in the collecior's ofllee and said Con cannon was present at the time that that about a bushel of dumping papers were burned iu the oflice stove, and that CONCANNON ASSISTED IN BURNING
THEM.
It will be recolleted that Concannon testified yesterday that he left the collector's office after showiag Joyce, Fitzroy and Bevis where the papers they wished to examine were kept and tnat he was not present when the papers wese disposed of.
In the cross examination, Megrue said he found afterwards that Leav« enworth had not always done fairly but had sometimes reporteb the collections on the crooked much less than they really were, .He said that until he came here to go before the Grand Jury last summer, he never had any conversation with McKee upon lni3 scheme to defraud the Gov ernment.
St. Louis, Jan. 25.—The witness continued it was made part of the affair that Cancannou should put some of the papers iu the stove These papers were destroyed to pre« vent detection of fraud of the ring. Peter Carrou, distiller testified to having paid an aggregate, of $60,000 or $70,000 to the ring his payments were made in checks, he was sued in 1869 for deficiency in tax, and the suit lasted till 1874, when it was decided against him. Other suits had also been brought against him. He had a talk with McKee in 1873 about these suits, and had been told that these snits would not be proseduted but his attorney said they would be He took these checks to McKee, and told him if these suits were not stopped, there would be a storm that he would expose the whole thing. McKee said the clerks were very dangerous things, and the suits were stopped for that term but judg^ ment was rendered against him the next year. On cross examination witness-stated that he went to see McKee about these suits because he believed that McKee had great influ ence witu the district attorney Patrick, aud could get the suits stopped but he would not tell tlie particular reason he had for thinking so. Witness did not expect to be indicted for his connection with the ring but the defence did not obtain his reasons for not expecting to be indicted Here the prosecution closed, and court adjourned.
