10 EUROPE. ‘The German mail steamship Westphalia, Captain ‘Trautman, from Southampton on the 18th of Sep- tember, arrived at this port early yesterday morning, bringing a mail report in detail of our cable tele- grams dated to her day of sailing from England, Mr. Temple’s yacht, the Ulalie, lying in Southamp- ton water, was run into and sunk on the night of the 16th of September by an Isle of Wight steamer. The owner and all on board were saved by climbing On board the steamer. They had a narrow escape, @sthe yacht sunk in four minutes after she was etruck. FRANCE. The King of Prussia’s Speech—Guizot on Napoleon’s Position—Newspaper Opposition to Imperialism Several of the Paris journals comment on the lan guage of the King of Prussia at Kiel, and their ap- Ppreciation of his words are exceedingly various. The most important of the articles appears inthe Constitutionnel, and may justly be looked upon as semt-oficial. It says:—The pacific intention of the King of Prussia in his observations cannot, in our opinion, be attenuated by the phrase in which his ajesty eulogiaes his army and navy. This compll- ~ment to the officers of both services present at the reception is easily understood a8 coming from @ sovereign proud of the military successes of late care. a Of the other journals which remark on the King's ‘words the Avenir National expresses itself in these “King William calls God to witness, before whom he declares himself responsible, He affirms that in he sees no thre ing circumstance; but he points to his fleet and his army, ‘that strength of the country which has proved that it does not fear to accept and carry to a successful termina- tion a struggle when forced on it? as a perneipay ge Tantee of peace. The sovereign of Count de Bis- marck evidently desired to carers to Europe as much as to the rector of the Kiel University, He sees no reason for war, he says, and in presence of God he desires peace. If, in order to maintain this desir- jee mense army 0 to war, whose is the fault?” . We have already given a notice of the long article written by M. Guizot for the Revue des Deur-Mondes on the present situation of Europe, particularly inas- much as Prussia and France are concerned. Speak- ing of Napoieon the writer says :—I do not think that the Italian war, with the grave embarrasements which attended and have followed its successes in the Mexican war, with its lamentable issue, cau have eatly strengthened in the Emperor Napoleon's eart a taste for war, and for the problems which it raises. 1 know not whether he still retains all that faith in his that confidence in his fortune, which fora long time char- acterized his life. The experience of disappointments and of reverses is a heavy burden to bear, even for the most obstinate optimists or fatalists, Moreover, age comes on, brin, with it other than personal interests and other preoccupations than the fancies of imagination or the workings of solitary thought. From these facts and moral probabilities I tnfer that vm the Ceres of peace or war arising out of the events in Germany and in spite of the regret and annoyance these events must cause him, the Emper- or Napoleon is more inclined to peace than war, and ‘hat he will seek rather to allow time gradually to heal the wonnds of France and his own than enibit- ter them by running fresh risks. ALEXANDER H. STEPHENS. Interview of a Radical with Mr. St A New Reason Given for the Collapse of the Rebellion. (Washington (Sept, 23) correspondence of the Raleigh (N. C,) Staadard—radical.) i A few evenings since I sent my card to Alexander Tl, Stephee set with much expectation that he would accede to the request of a republican news. paper correspondent for an interview. 1 was disap- pointed, however, for in a few minutes I was ushered into his room. Time doves not deal very gently with the ex-Vice President of the Southern confederac; Who so earnestly deprecated secession and the re- course to force to break up the Union. He appeared feeble, almost decrepit. His voice is shrill and cracked, His face is plowed into a thousand lines aud wrinkles, is pinched and seared- looking. His uueasy eye belied the quietude of the rest of his features and told of a spirit still restless and active, After replying to a Jew inquiries reiative to his heaith, which he said ‘Was all that he could expeci at his pertod of ufe, he opened a conversation relative to the South and his oWn State more particulariy, by the remark that he did not see much to be surprised at in the condition of atfairs in that section, le could speak with cer- tainty about Georgia. The people there were anx- fous for peace; they had had enough of war and bloodshed; they were Weary with the clash of con- tending political elements; they sighed and longed for repose. “I am,’ said he, “but a mere observer, go far as politics are concerned. I have retired for ever from public life, and what I may say one way or the otLer is but an individual opinion, entitied to no particular weight. l represent no warty, no fac- tion, no interest.”” ‘The old gentleman pleasantly gosstpped on in this Strain for severa! minutes, occasionally pausing to whi the smali pipe which he smoked incessant, “T have no doubt,” said he, “that time wiil he al! our diMiculties and troubles, and that uuder con- stivutional laws we shall be as happy as we once were.’ This word “constitutional,” hit on, perhaps, accl- dentally, started him on a new train of thought. Lis eye brightened up, the tobacco wreaths curied up faster and faster, aud he broke out rather impas- sionately:— ‘The real causes—ideas—which anima‘ed and influ- enced the leaders of the Southern peopie at the out- break aud previous to it of the late war are not, in my opinion, clearly understood. It is my be- lief that four-fiftha of the men who led the move- ment did not seriousiy contemplate the disruption of the confederation of the States. Their theory, my theory at least, was that if we could succeed in ob- taining from the North a recognition of the State ®overeignty principle we should all come together ‘again on equal terins and forma new Uuion, After the fall of Richmoud 5 0u of the Norih, even we of the South, and the world generally, indeed, were as.ou- ished at the collapse of the rebellion. It is a mistake to suppose that the South was physically beaven then, and that she was utterly incapable of making any further edfort or of prolonging the contest aimost indefinite. Before the war the people of the South saw the gradual centralization of power tu tie whole country. We saw that the Union, composed of equal and independent sovereign States, was drift- ‘ng into something that hardly differed from & movarchy except in name. We placed our- selves flrinly againat that tendency of the day, ‘We resolved to battle against it when we saw that it could not be combatted by other means. As I said before, we never (the majority of the leaders), never contemplated absolute independence. Well, war came. Year followed year, bringing to us and to ou more and more bloodshed and misery, and deso- tion and ruin. and by the more thoughtful of ‘our people saw that we were arriving precise, At that state of things to resist and ward off whic! \ We took up arms, an that the experience of Europe ‘and of the Old World was to be learned by us. A ;comparatively few men at Richmond ruled the en- ‘tire South, e battled for an idea against despot- fem, and battiing on im fancied security we awoke one morning ant found that we had the most ter- ridle despotisin in the word ourselves. From that monent, while Lee was still commanding armies Oftever victorious than defeated, the confederacy ‘Was beaten. It was much the same with us as it was-with you in Washington—power had become centralized and the reins were held by one or two men. When we on our side saw this, our people lost heart, we asked “what are we fighting for,” and we gave up the contest, There Was no arrangement, no unJerstand- ing; the sword was laid dowa by @ sort of tacit cou- sent that we had departed from our first ideas of the war, We had abandoned the course we had map- ped out, and there was no return to it. Mr. Stephens said nothing more on this subject. It was hardly my province to argue against his theories in the action, or the speeches of some of his followers and associates to seek for arguments to be used against him. In reply to a remark of mine relative to the Ku KiJux organization in the South he said:— w if there are any armed secret societies in the Southern States lam not aware of their exis- tence personaliy, If there is in this world anythin, I do hate and abhor, itis secret political bodies. do not think there are any In Georgia. In fact I do not Know anything avout them at all, except from What | see in the public prints. You know my re- epuemigamameane Nothing party. I have not changed in any respect since then, so far a3 such people are concerned. I am under the impression that it [4 all pare imagination, except probably tn portions of Tennessee.

Clene of the Season—The Old Quarantine Grounde=A Secret Speculution—The Tycoon- ate of Swinbarne Seen to End. Good news reigns in Gotnam. The quarantine season is over. Joy reigns all along the river front, ‘The captains of vessels are in ecstacies, the mer- chants are beside themselves with delight, the har- bor ef New York is free and the repubiic rejoices, The terrible nightmare which hung all the summer over the dreams of skipper and cabin boy is removed, ‘The awful quarantine 1s atanend. The health oficer of this port, Dr. Swinburne, may now rest from his labors, and retire on his easy Income to the orange groves of Florida, Staten Island is in a delirious state. Somebody has spread the news, which was never intended for general ears, that Dr. Swinburne will terminate his connection with quarantine this year, and on the strength of that there is much se- cret happiness, Wherefore is this? Has Dr. Swin- burne interfered with ye Staten Islanders and given them no shaye of his enormous earnings? So it would seem, or why this general sentiment of satis- faction at his early retirement, A large and valuable tract of property, over twenty acres in extent, called the Quarantine Grounds, given by a church in Richmond, Staten Isiand, some years go to the State government on condition of its being returned when its use was no longer re- quired, is one of the leading topics of private and "oe conversation in the society of Staten Island. it is asked everywhere on that insular continent, “Who has bought that property worth one million dollars? Some answer, ‘A circle of Quarantine officials whose earnings are ample enough to em- brace 80 vast a purchase.’ Others say, ‘No, it can- not be; if he or any else bought it the news would gy pear in the iy lic prints.” “That ts al very well,” says a third, “but it is easy enough to sell that property without elcher deed or lease. Some ple can pretend to be owners, and dispose of it for cash without giving any more than a receipt for the same.” Staten Island is in a ferment about the ownership and sale of that twenty acres—the finest strip of soil on the island, It has been said the owners of vessels are rejoicing. They have good reason. The Health OMicer is no longer @ tiger in their path, The cold weather has vastly impaired the profits of the quarantine station. The enormous chi for cooperage, lighte: » storage and discharging, so abundantly ievied on the unfortunate vessels t! tered this port during the pe summer and were daily incarcerated in quaran- e by Dr. Swinburne are at an end, ‘The Andrew Fletcher, a tug boat which is the pro- erty of the State, has now no further legitimate usiness to perform. The manager of Quarantine thinks differently and employs State property incom peting with the regular towing boats of the harbor, and applying the proceeds to what fund nobody but those that receive the profits knows, Oh, great are the ways of the Health Officer. Six or seven weeks ago @ man stood on the Quarantine plier at Staten Island pea forth his soul in denunciations of the port of New he ‘was a captain of a yessel scarcely 300 tons. For two days’ cooperage—hardly four hours’ work—he was charged sixty dollars, and unless he paid that exor- bitant sum he could not escape from quarantine by mission of the Health Officer. In any other port in the world, and even in New York without its cormorant quarantine official, the charge would have been hardly one-fifth. The list of positive extortions exercised by this quarantine management during the past summer would filla volume. Nothing like it has ever been recorded. The dificuity which interposes itself im furnishing the full data upon the subject is that these owners of vessels who have been im, upon are afraid that if they give t particulars for publication they may be treated doubly worse next year. Of this, however, they need have no fear. Swinburne is satistied with the emoluments he has already acquired and will very soon retire. What a commentary on the liberty of free-born American citizens, Here isacase which could be frequently manifolded, The schooner Grape Shot left here with a cargo of Drovisions a few months ago for Turk’s Island, but struck on a reef and was compelled to discharge her cargo et off. She afterwards took in a freight of sand for ballast, returned to New York, was boarded by the Health Onicer as usual, after sunset, the pass- ing hour, and compelled to undergo the customary est eat at an expense of fifteen dollars, The boarding is done by deputy, principally by a man who a few years ago was a piague-atricken emigrant and is represented as one who knows no more about medical practice than he does about the topography of the moon. MUNICIPAL AFFAIRS, BOARD OF ALOERMEN. The Elevated Reilroud Hauled Over the Coals—An Indignant Member. At two o'clock yesterday afternoon Alderman Coman, President of the Board, let fall his gavel and calied the members present to order. The roll was called, minutes disposed of and the reguiar routine commenced by the introduction of resolu- tions for paving or grading, or lighting and sundry other public work to be done, Among the papers handed in was one by Alder- man Moore, of the First district, which, in answer to a numerously signed petition, directed the Street Commissiouer to compe! the Elevated Raliroad Com- pany to remove forthwith the obstructions to public travel placed by the employés of the company at the sou heast corner of Cortiandt and Greenwich Streets, and {0 Case of the refusal by the company to comply with the order, then the Street Commissioner to do the work and Keg the company with the ex- pense. The resolution further directed the Croton Aqueduct Department to cause the excavation made at tue corner mentioned to be Milled and the Counsel to the Corporation to institute Pe jor the Ln ad of testing the legality of the company’s ac- 0. in urging the adoption of this resolution Alderman Norrox—who had caused the matter to be laid over for awhile until he had armed himseif with the laws of 1867—said:—This Elevated Railroad Company claims to act under authority of the law passed in 1567 granting permission to certain parties to erect an experimental line of ratiroad one-half mile in ex- tent, to be completed within a specified time. The work was commenced and carried on in opposition to the wishes of the property holders on the line of the proposed railroad and in violation of the vested rights ofthe city, The time specified for the com- pletion of the half mile had passed and the experl- ment was a failure. The company or lis agents went to Albany last year and atiempted to smuggle through an extension of time on @ bill entitled ‘An act to provide for the collection of revenue In the city and county of New York and the county of West- cheater.” He (Alderman Norton) detected the fraud tn the Senate and endeavored to defeat the measure, but in some guise it went through and he felt satisfied that the company waa acting under an unconstitu- tonal authority. Now this company had, for the ‘king of the endless chain by which they purpose running the cars, dug up the sidewaik in front ol the puolic school house on Greenwich street, near Rec- tor, and had constructed there an engine and boiler. They had hired the basement of No. 93 Greenwich street, under pretence of wanting tt for a dweiling, and be the night had dug a vault out from the house under the sidewaik and street and had erected there more of its steam ———. Mr. Norion then quoted from the lawa of 1867. to show how the su- peryiocey cominissioners wee to be appointed—two y the Governor and one by tie Croton Aqueduct Board. He sald that the property owners, almost wituout exception, had protested and now petitioned against the erection or maimtenance of the railroad, ‘AS jeopardizing the life and Pag iA of those dweli- ing of doing business near the steam boiler and en- gives, and as tending to grea‘ly depreciate the value of the property. The company had ddg up the street and sidewalk atthe intersection of two crowded thorough‘ares—Cortia and Greenwich streets— and the Board should take some decided actton in the matter, The resolution was adopted and sent to the other Board. A resolution was adopted directing the Croton Board to lay six inch Crovon water p.pes the entire length of Biackweil'’s Isiand. Alderman Rerrer called 1p a resolution directing that the crosswaiks on Fifth avenue from E a street to Fifty-nimth streetibe relaid and repaired. Alderman Haxpy said he thought that was rather a sweeping resolution. The usual course was when A crosswalk needed repairing to have it attended to, but this was rather wholesale, Alderman Reerea spoke in favor of his resolution. Aldernian HARDY repeated his objections, and the regolution was lost. A resolution was introduced directing the clerk to furnish the members of the new Board of Council- men with badges, staves of office an! stationery, The resolution Was iaid over, and atter a littie farther routine the Board adjourned to Thurday attwo P.M. ARO OF COUNCILMEN, Belgian Pavements—Incrense of the Salaries of the Officers of the Common Council. The Board met yesterday afternoon, he Preaident, Mr. Monahan, in the chair. After the minutes of the previous meeting were read and approved a few unimportant resolutions were presented and referred. ‘The Board concurred with the Aldermen in direct- ing the Croton Aqueduct to lay mains the entire length of Blackwell's Island. A large number of general orders were adopted, most of which related to routine matters, Kesolutions were ahee directing the clerk to fornish the members with badges, stationery, maps and the books necessary for the discharge of their onerous duties. Ordinances were adopted directing the Street Commissioner to pave the folowing streets with ixtieth street, from Lexington Prince street, from Bowery to uiway; avenue A, from Houston to Fourwenth flieth street, from Sixth to Seventh avenue ; y-ninth street, between Tenth avenue and Mud: fon river; Filty-Sfth street, from Fifth to Sixta Belgian pavement to Fifth aveune Br was made to the st.

Jersey City. DESCENT ON GAMBLING HOUSES.—OMcers Mann and Stratford paid an unexpected visit to the saloons of Jacob Gutoil and George Race, on Railroad ave- nue, on Sunday night, and arrested the proprietors, with fifteen other ipereans, on the charge of gambling. The proprietor of one and two men, named Henry Auckman and Frederick Hand, were committed for trial by the Recorder pearany, morning and the others were discharged. ‘The other saloon keeper, George Race, besides John Lappan, Eugene Doran and Thomas Cadwell were also committed, Tae BLOODY APFRAY IN THE Firta Warp.—The wounded man, John Reilly, was living up to a late hour last evening. The only chance of life depends on whether the wound in the breast be not so deep as to have reached the apex of the heart, It is sup- posed that the blade of the penknife was a short one, in which case the man may recover, The alleged perpetrators, Thomas Martin and a man named Thomas Leonard, were brought up for exam- ination before the Recorder yesterday morning, when both stoutly denied the charge of staboing, but admitted that there was a fight, the wounded man’s brother having provoked them. The injured man, on the other hand, made a statement to the Chief of Police, in which he ig positive that Martin stabbed him three times, adding “T had never seen Martin before and do not know him.’ What is most lamentable in the case ta that, like the West Hoboken murder, the victim was sim- ply a peacemaker and not direstly concerned in the quarrel. Martin and Leonard will remain in prison to await the result of the man’s Injuries. . Passaic. ANOTHER SHOCKING DEATH ON THE Enie RalL- ROAD.—The milk train which arrived in Jersey City at one o'clock yesterday morning ran over a young man, named John Sherwood, half a mile east of the Passaic bridge. Both the engineer and brake- man felt the jerk of the locomotive, and they at once exerted themselves to stop the train and back up to see what was the matter. They found the body PES) Sey the track and the head about thirty feet off. terrible was the shock that the case of the unfortunate man’s watch was separated from the works, which lay a few inches off from the body. ‘The mangled rem: were taken to Jersey City, where an inquest will be held by Coroner Warren. Deceased resided at Boiling Springs, and worked at the bleach factory. It\is supposed that while on his passage home he lay down and fell asleep. Newark. Tae CoRnoNER’s INQUEST In the case of Nathan Nichols, the engineer killed by the recent smash-up at the Morris and Essex depot, on Saturday night, is to be held on Wednesday next. In the case of the flagman, Byrnes, who was subsequently fatally in- Jured, no inquest has been deemed necessary, and accordingly @ burial permit has been granted by the county piiysician, Dr. Sehlbach, Byrnes had been tn the employ ot the company for probably twenty years, and it is generally thought was a victim to his own carelessness. Suooring AFFRAY IN East NEWARK.—Between one and two A. M.on Sunday Jolin Haley, aged seven- teen years, was shot in the knee by a pistol in the hands of John Beck, who keeps a saloon on the turn- pike road, near tke Passaic bridge. Beck reports that Haley was very much intoxicated, and had gain. ed an entrance tothe saloon by breaking through the lower panel of the door, when he was met by the proprietor, who struck him on the head with the pistol and tuen shot him in the Knee. The young man was taken to the hospital. It is expected he will lose his leg. Haley’s version of the atfair is that he returned to the piace for his hat and was fifed on without any provocation. Beck has been arrested and a warrant has also been issued for the arrest of Haley. Morristown, SHOCKING ACCIDENT aT AN IRON MiNz.—Four miners, named William Moore and Richard Samp- son, from Bristol, England, and James Richards and James Thomas, of Cornwall, England, were instantly crushed to death last Thursday by the falling in of a shaft of the iron mine of Mount Hope, Morris county. ‘They were buried on Sunday. An immense crowd of muaers attended the funeral. They were buried in one grave. BROOKLYN INTELLIGENCE, ACCIDENT.—Thomas Mollock, @ laborer, had his left leg broken yesterday afternoon by the caving in of an embankment on Hicks street, near Remsen. He was taken to the City Hospital. THe QUARANTINE AT Coney ISLAND.—Judge Gil- bert, of the Supreme Court, rendered a decision yes- terday in the case of the people of Gravesend against the Quarantine Commissioners, deny'‘ng the motion to continue the injunction restraining the Commis- sioners from occupying the west end of Coney Island for Quarantine purposes, DEATHS DURING THR PAST WEEK.—There is a de- crease of 35 in number of deaths in this city as com- pared with the preceding week—the total number reported by the Board of H@alth being 139, Of the deceased 32 were men, 27 women, 71 boys, 63 girls.

SENTENCED FOR ASSAULTING POLICEMEN.—William and John Brehen, brothers, were tried in the Court of Sessions, before Judge Troy, yesterday, on the charge of assaulting oficers Ryan and Slidell, of the Forty-eighth precinct, while the latter were endeavoring to arrest them. The jury returned a verdict to the effect that the oiticers fad no authority to arrest the defendants, but that in resisting the omcers they exceeded the necessary and a:nount of force, and were therefore guilty of assault and battery. The sentence of the Court was each to be conflued in the Kings County Penitentiary one year. FIRE DEPARTMENT FINANCRS.—At ® meeting of the Fire Department Board of Estimates and Dis- bursementa held yesterday afternoon statements were submitted by the Mayor and Comptroller showing the condition of the finances of the depart- ment. The amount credited to the department for the year 1863 was $100,323, of which sum $33,776 has been paid out of the treasury or absorbed in con- tracts already executed and certified, — a balance of $16,546 to the credit of the Board. The amount appropriated for repairs, ke., Previous meetings the Board, to the extent of $16,000, was rescinded on motion of Street Comm.sstoner Fury, and the whole subject of the financial position was referred to a committee to examine the resolutions adopted and ascertain john Dh donned action entailing expense could be re- sciuded, New York, Sept. 28, 1868 To THR Epiror or Tir HeraLp:— SiR—In your edition of the 24th Instant you pub- lished the affidavit of Mr. M.

Until the reports of this aflair were pubiished it was not known that Mr. Soox was at large or had been liberated from the asylum. MYSTERIOUS POISONING CASE IN THE EIGHTH WARD. Coroner Flynn yesterday caused the arrest of Ar- thur Rodgers, doing business as a druggist at No, 193 Spring street, and his son, to await an examination into the circumstances attending the death of James Hamilton, forty-two years of age, at No, 99 Thompson street, on Sunday morning last. It aj peared upon & post mortem exam- ination of the body of the deceased that death had resulted from taking oxalic acid in a mistake, it ig said, for Epsom salts, and it baving been stated that the package containing this medicine had been urchased at the drug store above referred to in- juced the action of the Coroner. The other circum- stances, however, scarcely sustain a suspicion of criminality, through carelessness or otherwise, on the rt of the prisoners. The medicine was purchased servant in the house where deceased residrd some three months since, named Kate Sloan, whom he sent for a dose of salts and senna, but upon its arrival, deciding not to take it, it was placed upon the shelf in dece: "3 room. what interference may e been with it since it ia impossible to determine, and afurther curious fact in the case is that the dose which is supposed to have caused death was taken over a week ago. Mr. Rogers states that from the man- ner in which the different medicines are stored or kept for sale in his store it would be impossible to mistake one for the other. There are other facts in the cage stiil less supporting the suspicion attached to the druggist in he arrest which will be brought out on the inquest, which is set down for to-morrow. In the meantime, however. Mr. Rodgers and his son remain in custody at the Eighth ward station house. Coroner Flynn was infurmed of the matter by the attending physician of the deccased. THE FLOOD IN BARRE, MASS, Particulars of the Carrying Away of the 4 Dam Near Heald Village. (From the Boston Advertiser, Sept. 28.) A very destructive catastrophe took place in Barre on Saturday evening, involving a loss of property almost impossible to estimate. The large reservoir in the north part of the town broke away its em- bankments during the heavy rain of Friday night, and at about two o'clock on ‘Saturday morning the tremendous volume of water thus set free rushed through the valley occupied by a chain of villages and mill privileges, destroying every dam, every mill, every bridge and every road in its path for three or four miles. Between Rider Village and Barre Plains the only structure left standing along the course of the stream was the mill of Chi Conant, which withstood .the shock which swept away its dam. Among the mills carrie way were those of Henry Wilki Dexter Dennis, Luke L. Knight, E. L. Pierce and Neilson Loring, and in most cases not a vestige of the buildings was left to show where they had stood. Some of the sufferers lost every cent they liad in the world by the disaster. The fence of the Glen Valle; Cemetery was swept away, with the road in front 0} it, and the cemetery was filled with debris from the ruined mills. The stage road to Worcester was made impassable, and on other roads ferries were estab- lisned to reopen communication. The loss to the town alone, in roads and bildges, will exceed $25,000. None of the property was insured against this class of accidents. It is a most extraordinary and gratifying circumstance that no lives were lost though several houses were entered by the flood an their inmates made fugitives.
