FROM OUR LONDON CORRESPONDENT, The Alnbama Claims Settlement—Extraordi« mary Instructions trom Secretary Sewnrd— Miuister Johnson’s Reception—The Court Breeches Difiiculty Ended—Washington Di- plomacy Towards Can: Lonpon, Sept. 12, 1868, ‘The rumors which nave been floating about in diplomatic circles for some time past in regard to the Alabama claims has at length taken # aennie form. A Liverpool paper announces, with some show of authority, that Mr. Reverdy Johnson has been instructed by Secretary Seward to settle the Alabama claims in his own way and upon any basis that may be satisfactory to himself, and that all pre- vious communications from the American Depart- ment of State are to be considered as cancelled, In order that there may be no misapprehension about this important matter, I quote the paragraph in full. It is from the Liverpool Mercury, aud reads as fol- lows:— "we have great pleasure in bidding our readers look for a speedy termination of the Alibanma dim. ful. We are informed that Mr. Reverdy Johnson, he new envoy from the United States, has received instructions from Mr. Seward that all papers and documents hitherto issued with regard to the Ala bama question have been cancel‘ed by his govern- gent. He ts further authorized to make such terms ith our own governmen, ashe thinks fit. The spirit jn whieh he will ent<r upon this undertaking was bbundantly showy py his speech at Sheiield, Here you “ave the entire secret of the complimen- tary reesption of Mr. Reverdy Jolson in England, Abe hatteries and attentions that have been lavished ‘upon him since he came here and the simultaneous outburst of the London papers when Roebuck dia- played British sentiment in its true colors at the SheMeld dinner. Minister Thornton, at Washington, had a hint of this before Mr. Reverdy Johnson left the United States; he communicated it to his gov- ernment in a despatch, carried by special messen- ger, and a hint froin Lord Stanley gave the journals here the Key note for the chorus of laudations which announced Mr. Johnson's appointment. Since then the same game has been played, and very weil played; and Minister Johnson’a speech at Snefield shows, I am afraid, that he has fallen into the trap. Minister Johnson hus removed the United States Legation at London to No. 4 Portland place—a ver fashionable location. He had an interview wit Lord Staniey immediately upon the return of the noble Lord from Switzerland, and he is to present his credentials to the Queen on Monday next, her Majesty having arrived safely at Windsor from her foreign tour. le is to be received in plain evening dress, all (he ordmary court regulations having been fet aside for his express accommodation, although Minister Adams never elt strong enough to infringe them or to ask their suspension. i this means simply the settlement of the Alabama claims, and one Minister is treated differently from the other because Minister Adams was looked upon as the opponent of England and Minister Jobson is re- garded as England's friend. ag | Seward is mancoaveteg by =) Ganger- ously in this matter, as well as in his dealings with Canada, and unless the American public are aroused in time they will find the Alabama clatmas lone and the nation cheated out of its just rights, Tho error of the Trent affair will be repeated, and re- ated under much less favorable circumstances, United States have the power, and 1 believe that le have the will, to secure the payment by England of the Alabama damages in full; but_ under the manipulation of Secretary Seward and Minister Johnson it is evident that England is going to get the best of the in, and that @ settlement will be made by which all the American claims wiil be secrificed. I have hinted at this state of affairs ve- ‘ore; but I now assert It most distinctiy. Of course, it is desirable that England and the United States should be on good terms; but the —~¢ accept- able basis of their amity ought to be mutual justice. The talk about a common origin and a common lite- rature in all humbug—mere dust that the English —— try to throw into the eyes of the nation that jand has robbed. The fellow who picka your pocket or breaks into your house may have acommon origin with you, and my be just as fond of the Eng: lish literature; but is that any reason why he should not be punished for bis crime and for: to refund the property he has stolen? Engiand occupies this criminal, this burglarious position, and her whining abouts common orgin cannot heip her to eseape. But Secretary Seward and Minister Johnson can the help her, and they are doing it. Ala- bama claims ought never to be settled, ex- yinent in hard cash on cept upon of the British government. That is the only le them in Minister Johnson's way is injur aceful to Americans, I ask ae att tion to this subject on the part of the Amer andi warn them that Secretary Seward’s an ANd disastrous compromise.

The International Labor Congress—Treatment of the “Strike”? Question——Difiicnity in the French Delegation—The Resolutions. BRUSSELS, Sept. 10, 1868, The action of the Congress in relation to the reso- lutions concerning war and standing armies has already been telegraphed to the HERALD. The ma- jority seemed to feel that they had as little power to decide anything relating to that question as to ix the courses of the stars, and 80, much to the relief of all practical men, the matter was speedily dropped. Next came the question of strikes and courts of arbi- tration, and upon this any working man 1s certainly capable of forming and expressing an opinion. First, the workingmen of Geneva sent in a report of a recent successful strike in that city and gave a minute account of their strategy. The gist of this Paper 18 as follows:— Cognizant that strikes are contrary to the princt- bry of political economy, we believe their cause ies in the actual state of society, in which the ca- Pe ay assume the power of being the sole cca in all matters: concerning the carrying on of busi- ALODE PEER LEM ewking gincgoa ana. tro. quently subjected to the caprices of their employ- ers. It would be rather dangerous if the working classes did not take some energetic measures to re- sist the encroachments of their employers, We be- Heve that by propagating the principies of solidart- ty which ought to bind together into an im; na ble bond all the sections of the International Work- ingmen’s Association, we shall render an effectual service to the great principica which we have at heart. If we examine the past we shall find with- out much trouble how dificuit bas been the posi- tion of the producer left to his individual resources, if we desire to avoid in future the deplorable ef- fects of isolation every one of the societies aMiliated to the International Workingmen’s Association ought to establish aspecial fund for defensive purposes and for creating a central fund like the one at Geneva, There the dierent tuades’ societies paaneing to It pay their contributions Into a central fund, which is managed by the delegates of the diferent trades. With a weekly contribution of two and a half pence we have sustained four great strikes, and in spite of these struggles we have remained masters of our situation, Thanks to the great principles or solida- rity which have always reigned among us we were abie at the commencement of the last strike—that of the building trades—to place 3,000f, at the disposal of the strike committee. Without this the building trades could not have stirred, and would not have ained the reduction of their hours of labor and the increase of wages which they have obtained. A similar organization throughout {he association might prove an effectual means of preventing strikes, anu, being we!l provided for all eventualities, would avold consicts, which are to be regretted at all times. We are by no means in favor of strikes; but they are the only weapons we possess at present to defend ourselves, Let us look fora means which may serve us better than strikes; but @ general or- gauization Is indispensable. If our association is to from the English delegates and the third from the Belgians, They aflord a pretty fair idea of the calibre of the Congress, Then, very naturally, the delegates began to debate about’ education, and as this letier leaves the delegates are wildly asserting that a man has the same right to education as he has to food and that he ought to be furnished by the Syate, with- outany etiort of his own, with @ thorough know- ledge of every branch of learnu To-morrow, I suppose, they will claim that, in addition to this, the State ought to furnish him with a marble palace, a brougham, good clothes, @ cook, plenty to eat, several servants, all nectasary Jewelry, a good diges- tion, @ gratis physician anda salary of $10,000 a - 4 Such is the programme of this prectoux Coa- GREEGE.

The Cretan insurgent chiefs met im council on Fri- day last, when they came tothe final conclusion that they would fight till the death rather than surrender. Gogoneus and two hundred and thirty volunteers started for Crete in the last blockade runner and landed safely. The Cretans have determined to abandon the western provinces of Crete on account of the chain of block houses built by Omar Pasha. Everything looks favorable for the success of tle insurrection.

ATTEMPTED Sutcipe.—While the ferryboat Hud- son City was on her passage from New York about hall-past five o'clock yesterday afternoon one of the passengers, a respectable looking man, deliberately jumped off the stern of the boat into the river. Great alarm naturally arose among his friends who were in company with him, as the ferryboat was go- ing so rapidly that he was left far behind in less than a minute. He was rescued, however, by a tug- boat which came to his relief, Newark. Buronary.—At an early hour yesterday morning the residence of Mr. Caleb H.

B. Fudger, doing business cor- ner of Railroad avenue and Commerce street, and ordered twelve tons of coal, for which he gave in percent @ forged check for $122 50, purporting to made out by Edgar Farmer, in favor of his brother, Timothy Farmer—well known Newark merchants, As the check overshot the necessary amount by some $32, and as the dapper gentleman was anxious to leave town, the latter amount was at once handed over. It subsequently transpired that not only was the paper a forgery, but a similar dodge had been played on several other parties by the same individ- ual, Information has been given to the authorities. ALARMING FIRE IN JERSEY CITY. Terrific Explosion in a Petroleum Refnery— The Engineer Burned to Death and Three Men Fatally Injured—Loss $30,000—The Building in Ruins. An explosion occurred about half-past eight o’clock yesterday morning in the petroleum refinery of Richards, Sons & Verplanck, situated at the corner of Prospect and South Highth streets, Jersey City, caused, it is supposed, by the over-boiling of the oil orcontact between the naptha and the fire in the farnace. The first explosion was followed by o second and a third, the last one absolutely carrying into the air, to @ height of nearly 100 feet, a great part of the structure, and sending forth a volume et dense black smoke that enveloped the entire vicinity for several minutes. Searemy naa the falling débris settled on the ground when masses of it were displaced by the explosion of oil barrels in rapid succession, Sheets of fame rolled up amid the clouds of smoke, and as the flerce liquid swept across th e cove it licked up everything com- bustible. A large quantity of lumber lying in the water was thus quickly disposed of. As soon as the firemen arrived on the ground it was resolved Lo effect an entrance to the still room, where the workmen were employed. In the effort four of the firemen were slightly scalded. They suc- ceeced in reaching three of the workmen, who were prostrated bf the flames and smoke, and an examin- ation showed that they were severely, if not fatally, burned. One of them was so suffocated that he was insensible for & long time after being taken out. Their names are Henry Uhter, aged twenty-five; ‘Theodore Hildebrand, foreman, and Angust Pittner, ‘The latter resides in West Hoboken and has a wife and two children. Hildebrand has also a wife and two children, unfortunate man is so burned that death only can bring rellef. He lingered in great agony during the day, but he cannot survive, Passing under the doorway further on leading to the engine room one of the firemen beheld a sight at which he stood aghast. There lay in the midst of the ruins a crisped, frying mass of fesh, the horrible remnant of a man who had been an active member of this busy world halfan hour before, The features were burned away and the body so contorted in a carbonized crisp that the blood runs cold at the thought of what even a human being may come to inthe end. This isall that remains of Joseph Lit- zinger, the engineer, twenty-five years of age, 9 na- tive of Augsburg, Bavaria. He was unmarried. It is sald that the unfortanate man on hearing the first prosper let us unite, and our adversaries will think twice before they attack us once. Being prepared and provided we shall be able to resist those who would otherwise endeavor to deprive us of the truits of our labor. The workingmen of Antwerp were opposed to strikes on principle and in practice, As a means of increasing-wages they are useless, and they are equally ineffectual in reducing the hours of labor. ‘They produce riots, violence, injury to the bodies and pockets of the working people. If successful their effects are but temporary. If unsuccessful the work- ingmen are worse off than before. The oniy way to benefit the working people permanently ts by co- operative labor. The workingmen of Brussels presented a paper ad- vocating the same views, but at greater length and with minute details, They contended that in strikes the employers often succeeded; the laborers very seldom. hey declare teat in order to kee up Wi trades unions are necessary. Ai these unions ought to be united locally, nation- ally and internationally, 80 as to provide for the surplus workmen in all countries, aud so keep up the prices of labor and prevent iste from im; ing workmen from other coum Councils of arbitration are strongly recommended, Foremen of I establishinents are Mtacked for taking part with the employera against the iabor- ers. i iitical tations are advocated as certain to benefit the workingmen. The advantages of pro- ped the laborers should not supply the consemers ithout the interference of the capitalists. Capital is at present absorbing labor. In future labor must absorb capital and workingmen must found a new social order. An antmated debate followed the reading of these a Tartarel, of Paris, said that the French laborers Tequired more than food and clothing—they wanted education. He desired to know how they could live on four francs and a half @ day, not counting the time when they were out of work. They had con- demned strikes; but the strikes were useful as a means of organization for war, and our social state was chronic war. The Minister of France spoke well to the workingmen, but dia en He asked con- fidence, but did not try to deserve it. Property was protected, but the laborers wore left to take their | chance, Measars. Shaw and Dapont, of London, believed in strikes and thought that the workingmen gained by them. They always improved the health of the men on strike. The English trades’ unions were decidedly in favor of atrikes, The hour having arrived to close the theatre the solutions On strikes were not put to the vote ‘This morning there was a row between two sec- | tions of the French delegation, and @ long scene of | eriminetions and recriminations, shoutings and jes- ticulations ensued, The disputants talked 80 at Shem ae Yay could coat what Md the matter; but at last it appeared represen’ tives of French couaperatl socleties were, com. | plaining of being treat iy oF bers, Tecate the Freucn governiient had neon AY to pa- tronize inem a litte.

Had he consulted his own safety merely he would be living to-day, but, like the heroio mariner who stands at his post till the passengers are ali safely provided for and then gocs down inthe wreck, this engineer risked his life to save others in- stead of making his escape. If this be not heroisin there is none on record. One other man ts misstng, and there can be no doubt as to his fate. The fire continued to , despite the efforts of the firemen, and at half-past tweive o'clock the stables of John D.

Through the exertions of the firemen the corner frame dwelling house attached ‘The loss in this case 18 about $600; fully insured.

An Unprecedented Performance—John Stewart Trots Twenty Miles Within an Hour, to Wagon, on the Fashion Course, Yesterday Afternoon, The brown gelding John Stewart performed the unparalelied feat of trotting twenty miles to a skel- eton wagon in fifty-nine minutes and twenty-three seconds, for a wager of $2,000 against $1,000 that he could not accomplish the distance within an hour. He did so gallantly, amid a drizzling rain and with- out the least apparent distress, for at the termina- tion of the race he appeared in nowise jaded; on the contrary, he pricked up his ears and seemed to- tally unconscious of having performed anything more-than an ordinary undertaking. He is quite a weill-bred horse, sired by Tom Wonder, whose dam was by Woodpecker, and his extraordinary per- formance yesterday shows the value of high blood in a trotting horse. He is a small brown horse, about fifteen hands high, compactly built and very muscu- lar, with fine, square trotting action. ‘This ig the second and the only successful attempt at trotting twenty miles within the hour to a wagon in this country. Flora Temple attempted the same feat on the Centreville Course, Long Island, on the 24th of May, 1855, but falled. She cast a shoe on the eighth mile and cut herself severely, and was with, drawn on thecompletion of the twelfth mile, which she had accomplished, in thirty-seven minutes and eleven anda hulf seconds, being then one minute and eleven and a half seconds behind the average time, with not the remotest prospect of her ultimate success. Twenty miles within the hour, however, have been trotted to a sulky four several times; once by Mr, Bridge’s chestnut gelding Trustee, by imported Trus- tee, the sire of the famous racing mare Fashion, out of the noted trotting mare Fanny Pullen. This per- formance came off on the Union Course, Long Island, in October of 1848, nearly twenty years ago. This was the first time that distance had been performed after repeated failures by other horses, Trustee trotted the twenty miles in fifty-nine minutes and thirty-five and a half seconds. In a match aghinst time for $5,000, on the Centre- ville Course, July 12, 1855, James D. McMann’s bay mare Lady Fulton attempted the same feat. She succeeded, with but five seconds to spare, having trotted the twenty miles in fifty-nine minutes and fifty-five seconds. a ‘The next attempt in harness was made by the roan gelding Captain McGowan, by imported Sovereign, dam said to be Sally Miller, by American Eclipse. This horse trotted twenty miles on the Riverside track, about three years ago, in fifty-eight minutes and twenty-five seconds, The Riverside track is a DAI Tve in virenit A greater attempt than that of any of tne prevea- ing was that made by John Stewart, the winner of -the time match yesterday, who was matched to trot twenty-one miles within the hour over the Riverside track.

The terms of tue match specified a day and a good track. To the great relief of the spectators present—most of whom were apprehensive that the horse would not start—John Stewart made his appearance on the track ready for the race, his backers being in no wise daunted by the funtavorable weather, and believing that he was capable of the task imposed upon him, rain or shin oP to this moment the betting had been inst the horse, as high as one hundred to sixty mato been laid on time. After the horse was stripped and his fine condition manifested itself to the spec- tators the betting current seemed to run more in hia favor and even betting was the result. Atafew minutes afier three o'clock the judges, Messrs. Mar- tin, Shaw and Dr. Underwood, took their places in the stand, The owner of the horse then stated to the judges that he intended to give him one turn around the track and when he returned to the score they were to give him the word “Go.” At about twenty minutes it three o'clock the horse started with Hiram Woodruff behind him, He seemed very eager to trot and anxious to goat apace rather quicker than was desirable, as he _ broke up while coming up the homestretch on the first mile, which was done in 2:56, He seemed stoadier on the se cond mile, but the pace was go far accelerated that he reached the score in 2:49. He continued at nearly the same rate of speed through. out the third and fourth miles, which were trotted respectively in 2:50 and 2:52—a rate of speed that was generally thougut to be a little too high. The fifth mule was trotted in 2:54. On the sixth mile, how- ever, better judgment began to be displayed, and the of t se Was so far moderated that he reached the score in 2:59, The betting now ran strongly in favor of the horse, and 100 to 60 were current in the pools, the auctioneer being busily engaged at his vocation as the race pro- A little slower rate of speed than the was kept up during the seventh and precedin; eighth miles, which were trotted in 3:00 and 3:03.

He did not evince the slightest symptoms of distress and seemed capable of continuing his exertions for an indefinite period of time, It appeared no more than exer- cise for him, and around the eleventh and twelfth miles it was little else, the time being 3:02 and 8:06, On the thirteenth mile his owner again calied on the driver for more 9) |, and he went ten hh ch, but recovered in an instant, and re- samed his gait, passing the score in threo minutes, ‘While going around on the fifteenth mile, when on the backstretch, he broke up successively three times. ‘This was presumed to be due to the agency of the driver, with a view of breaking = the monotony o the gait fora moment and so relieving the horse.

UNITED STATES ClicuiT coun. A Baukruptey Appeal Case—Decision. Before Judge Nelson. Judge Nelson bas given the following opinion, on apy-cal:— In the Mater of Asa W. Craft, a Bankrupt, ée.— ‘This isa petition flied the second section of the Bankrupt act for the purpose of revising a deci- sion of the District Judge allowing an amendment ition of the creditors under the thirty- ninth section of that act mune pro tunc. ‘The peti- tion in bankruptcy, am other t! stated that gave'vo 8 Jones a mot Judgment aid ent au caused a judgment to be entered cane upon which execution was 5 that this conies- lon of the Bauk ack Tue petition also slates facts showing tat tas debtor was insolvent, On the returnof the order to show cause on tition the debtor denied the acts of oe set forth in the petition and demanded a trial by the court, The show that Craft was when he gare ie confession of judgment, and that after the wale on execution under Jones’ judgment he had no property with which to pay his debis, it wever, distinctly that the several acts the de! were not done or committed with in- tent to take the benetit of the Bankrupt act, which was the averment relied onin the petition as the foundation for proceeding against the debtor in bankruptcy, The thirty-ninth section provides, among other sings, that any person “Ww! bankrupt or. ent, or in bankruptcy or insolvency, shall” “give any war- Ton 80, SORIA it or procure or suffer his proj to on legal process, with intent to give @ preference to one or more cred- be deemed to have committed an debtor was: insolvent, or contemplated insolvency, but only that the several acts alleged were done in contemplation of bankruptcy. These latter words in the act of 1841 were construed to committing what was made by the act, an act of bankruptcy (13 How., p. 150), which construction would seem quite sppiicante to the same language in the nt act. ‘The result is, as the proofs show, that acts of Craft in_giv! the confession of judgment to Jones, &c., were not in contemplation of bankruptcy; the ‘petition against him failed, un- Jess it was competent for the Court below to grant the amendment in question, which is, by inserting the words “while insolvent, or in contemplation of insol- vency,’’ in lieu of ‘in contemplation of bankruptcy.’” The only real objection to an amendment of a petl- tion in ‘uplcy, nunc pro tunc, isin a Clause in this thirty-ninth section of the act, which provides that the petition shall “be brought within six months after the act of bankruptcy shall have been com- mitted.” To allow a substantial amendment—that ig, one going to the whole foundation of the proceed- ing, nine pro tunc—would be in direct violation of this limitation, which is obyiously for the benefit of the debtor. But in the present case the amendment is little more than formal, as facts are alleged in the petition which, if true, and the proois substantiate them, import that the debtor was insolvent at the time and committed the acts alieged in contempla- tion of insolvency. This new averment, therefol could not have taken the debtor by surprise, as 1 simply puts in form what already appeared in sub- stance in the petition, and which must have been so understood by him on the trial of the issue before the Court, as no objection was taken to the evidence, Amendment aftirmed.

The General Sieget made several complete turns in her own length during the trip, caused no greater disturbance in the water aft than would an orients sailing vessel and far less than a canal boat fitted with large, unwieldy rudders. As a test of the vaiue of the in- vention for steering purposes the experiment was perfectly successful and proved that the chief objec- tion to the introduction of steam on our canals—the washing and wearing of the banks—could no longer apply. ‘The Philadelphia Transportation and ja nad jompany, which has received a very liberal c! from the’ Peunsylvanta Legislature, is building » numoer of canal boats to be fitted with this Inven- tion and run by steam between the coal regions and falco rye and Washington and New York. ‘f! boats will be 100 feet long by 17 feet wide, und wi carry 170 tons of freight.
