A New Emperor=Dynastic Opposition. Lonpon, Oct. 14, 1868. ‘The report of the coronation of Gobazie as Empe- Tor of Abyssinia is confirmed. He is supported by Prince Kassal, but opposed by the oldest son of the late King Theodorus, Wagsham Gobazie, the New Emperor. By the cable telegram we are informed of are- Hewal of the olvic dissensions and strife of native factions in Abyssinia, on the same issue of rival claims to dynastic succession and royal authority by which the country was so ruinously torn and di- vided for years previous to the seizure of complete g@athcrity by the late Theodorus. The newly crowned Emperor is Wagshum Gobazie, ‘the hereditary Shum or Prince of Wag, a district of Lasta. This isone of Theodorus’ most formidable antagonists and the most successful of all the insur- gent chiefs.

Since the return march of the Engilsh toe chiefs must have become reconciled, if the cabie telegram of the present union be correct, INDIA. The Afghan War Ended. Lonpox, Oct. 14, 1868, Despatches from India report that the civil war in Northern Affghanistan is at an end, Amir Azim Khan. who contested the power of the Emir of Ca- ‘bool, Shere Ali Khan, having failed to establish bis aims by arms, fled to Bokhara. Shere All _Khan’s Conqnests. ‘The telegram from India, forwarded by way of Lonton and through tae Atiantic cable, and pub- lished above, reports the present termination of a dificult war agitation which had been surging for many months from the scene of the Russian con- quests in Central Asia towards the northwestern frontier of British India, and which frequently threatened dangerous complications, by the definite tria mph of Shere All Khan, who is reckoned as@ friend of the British.

WASHINGTON. WasHINGTON, Oct, 14, 1868. What is Thought of the Elections. ‘The public mind here seems to have settled down into the conviction that the country is destined to be guided through another four years’ term by republi- can statesmanship, although the election returns come in very slowly and are generally unsatisfac- tory, certainly so to many here. Enough has been gleaned to carry conviction to the minds of the old Political veterans, and they admit'that they will not be disappointed if, when the official returns are an- nounced, all four of the States which held elections yesterday will be found to have gone largely republi- can, Among these sharp-sighted individuals may be mentioned a well known democratic Senator who sat gazing ruefully relentless at the bulliten board, and when several telegrams were pointed out to him which announced that certain republican members of Con- gress were probably defeated said, “Ah, that means that they are certainly elected,” Some few hopeful democrats there are who yet cling to straws and resolutely refuse to make up their minds until the official vote is announced. The Spanish Revolution—Correspondence of Minister Hale and the State Department. The following is the oMcial copy of the late tele- graphic correspondence between the Department of State and the United States Legation at Madrid, relative to the recent eventa in Spain:— SAN SEBASTIAN, Sept. 30, 1868, To THE SECRETARY OF State, Washington:— The revolutionary government is established at Madrid. The Queen has started for France, JOHN Pr. ‘HALE. DEPARTMENT OF SraTE, Oct. 1, 1868, HALE, Minister at Madrid:— Keep me weil advised, SEWARD.

PROVISIONAL GOVERNMENT, MADRID, Oct. 13, 1868. DEPARTMENT OF STATE, Oct. 13, 1868, HALR, United States Minister, Madrid Lay sors in the President's name > the salutation of the Provisional government communicated by the Spanish Minister here, and tender the best wishes of the United States for the peaee, prosperity and hap- piness of Spain under the present and definitive gov- ernments. SEWARD. The Spanish Minister at Washington. It isexpected at.the Spanish Legation here that the exact status of Sefior Goni, the Spanish Minister, will be known in a day or two, a8 despatches are looked for py the next steamer. Those members of the diplomatic corps who are intimate with Sefior Goni do not anticipate any change in the Ministry, but believe that Sefior Gont will receive powers to continue in his present mission under the new government. Sefior Goni {is not only re- garded as one of the ablest statesmen of Spain, but his relations with the late government are known to have been not altogether of the most friendly charac- ter. Itis said thathe never saw Queen Isabella in his life and that he started for this country without seeking an audience with her Majesty. For these reasons itis more than probable that sSeflor Goni will continue to represent the Spanish government at Washington. Transportation of the Overland Mail. The Post OMce Department is embarrassed about the conveyance of the maiis between the termini of the Pacific Railroad. The telegraphic correspon- dence shows that Brigham Young is willing to un- dertake it on the condition of being paid a certain sum for a specified amount ot matter, and pro rata for all over it. The Post OMce agent, Mr. Clampitt, telegraphs from Salt Lake City that Wells, Fargo & Co. are the only parties who can perform the ser- vice, but they are impatient for an immediate defl- nite arrangement on their own terms, Uthers have communicated with the department, but their despatches afford no ground to hope for relief. It ‘will be recollected that Congress repealed so much of the Post Office laws as confined the over- land maii to letter postage, This having been done after the proposals had been issued and Mr. Spaids’ bid accepted, he declined to enter upon the work. By this repeal the bulk of the mail matter was so largely increased as to require facili- ties additional to those heretofore employed. It is now too late in the season to advertise for new pro- posals, and besides there are no appearances or reason to believe that there would be any spirited competition for the award, for the service would be continued for only about a year, when the railroad will be finished. A new contractor would have to stock the road, requiring a very large outlay of money, and necessarily have to build stations to be abandoned one by one as the building of the rall- road progresses. Instead of having time to pre- pare for the sustenance of his stock he would now be compelled to pay higher prices for forage during the winter months. The entire amount of money appropriated by Congress for the Pacific Coast and Overland service is not enough for even two-thirds the expense of the coming year. Had not the Post Office law been amended in the manner stated there would be but littie difficulty in transporting the overland mail, the matter heretofore conveyed having been not one-eighth as much as now under the present law. ‘The mail matter is constantly increasing and will ‘assume such bulk as seriously to interfere with the efforts of the department to effect an arrange- ment. It would probably require $1,100,000 or $1,200,000 to secure the service of Wells, Fargo & Co. until the eompletion of the railroad. The Post- Master General has made a temporary arrangement with that firm, but it is not known how long this will continue. Meantime be is considering whet is best to be done under the embarrassing circum- stances. The Law Regulating Distilleries. A gentieman interested in a distillery recently in- quired of the Commissioner of Internal Revenue whether the late law would not be so modified as to permit the distillation of whiskey in copper stills. ‘The object sought was to obtain a modification of the law in favor of distillers doing a small business. It is stated that the Commissioner replied that all dis- tillers would have to comply strictly with the law, and that the policy of the department is to stop the working of all small stilis. Arrival of General Hancock. Major General Hancock arrived here this morning from Missouri. He does not look near so well as he did when he left for the West. His wound, which gave promise of healing again before he left St. Louis, threatens to cause him much trouble before he can get well enough to return toduty. The Gene- ral called upon the President this morning. Internal Revenue Appointments. Thomas Wellwood has been suspended from the office of assessor for the Third district of New York, onthe recommendation of Commissioner Rollins, and Samuel D. Maddox is designated by the Presi- dent to fill the place. Wm. McQuilken has been ap- pointed guager for the Second district of Pennsyl- vania, and the following named storekeepers have been appointed:—Charies G.

Dr. Potler, of this diocese, ac- cording to ceremonies prescribed by the Protestant Episcepal Church. At a few minutes past four P. M. Rev. Dr. Morgan, the rector, invited the laymen present to unite in the procession which was to walk around the church, an observance that could not be dispensed with, after which, he added, the services would be con- tinued in or near the chapel, ‘The procession formed in the vestry room of the chapel, as follows:— The Sexton bearing a leaden box, intended to be deposited in the corner stone, eine ders.

As the proces-ion slowly advanced the choir chanted the 122d psalm, At the close and when the singers and clergy had reached the staging placed in front of the chapel and halted the officiating bishop (Potter) said the address prescribed by the Church for such occasions, and the prayers and supplications which follow, in an impressive manner.

But, indeed, they could scarcely have had time to unpack thelr trunks after their swift return from St. Louis. Almost the entire company has but just arrived from the West, travelling twelve hundred miles in fifty hous, and immediately appearing before the Dubit —an exploit almost unprecedented in the annals of theatrical en- terprise, It is only surprising that the army of General Boum, after a forced march unsurpassed by the famous forced marches of (ieneral Bonaparte, should have won 80 signal a victory as that which they achieved last night. Pike's Opera House was not at all too jarge for Mile. Tostée’s admirers who thronged it last evening, and the ovation in her honor was a complete success. It is not her fault if quite a disproportionate share of the shower of bouquets which fell at her feet was bestowed upon that bewitching although equivocal can-can, rather poe upon her inimitable acting in the rest of the ra, It was but a somewhat discreditable indica- tl lon of the taste of a portion of her admirers, Suf- fering as she was from the fatigues of her long journey, she acquitted herself admirably and was ap- plauded with enthusiasm, So was manager Bate- man when he appeared before the curtain and de- livered the following speech: Lavine AND GENTLEMEN—I have many—vor things to thank you for, leat, for the splendid Tofttation you have this evening given to the statement that “nobody could tind Pike's Opera House.” You, ladies and gentlemen, have tound it easily ; and I may be permittod to hope yon will find {t often.

THEATRE FRANCAIS—“LA GRANDE DUCHESSE.'— Why fs this thus? The “Grande vuchesse” was never better gotten up than here, with these new and costly dresses from Paris, decorations, scenery, &c.; the leading singers, the army and the chorus were never better nor under better discipline; there never was a handsomer or more fascinating or more graceful Duchesse than Mme. Rose Bell; and she can sing Tostée out of her boots. Moreover, have we not a Fritz here who was born to be Fritz and a General Boum who gives us ali his fuss and feathers in perfection? Yes, yes; a thousand times yes. Why is it, tnen, that the never-failing “Duchesse” has failed to crowd this house to-night? Has she had her day? No; nor can it be the rain, fora pair of confederate spies from Pike’s Peak report that on the Eighth avenue the original “Grande Duch- rol fe New Amsterdam, from the \d floor to hig ee a pertect rush, & lar ja; that all ‘world and his wife and daughters re there, with some of | of thetr o ‘Sousins fro the coun. and that roud as Lucifer and aA Tike is lovely to behold.

Every succeeding performance of Janea- schek attracts the public more and awakens greater enthusiasm. The Academy was hardly ever more crowded in the palmiest days of opera than It was last night to see Janauschek in the drama of “Katharina the Second, Empress of Russia,” not- withstanding the inclement weather, and rarely has an audience been more apprectative and demonstra- tive. This drama, by Albert Lindner, was per- formed last _ for the first tima in = Bova pai and, we believ first time ane Jaraunchek was to have brought it out in Vienna, Austria; but, having resolved to return to the: United States, she secured the right from the author of “yy- it here.

The postponement is occasioned on account of the decorations of Steinway Hall not being completed. Her first appearance is looked forward to with mingled pleasure and interest. On Monday next Miss Kellogg, after a long absence in other lands, and reaping triumphs as the reward of her genius, pares before the American publio in her great rdle of Marguérite in the third act of Gounod’s “Faust.” Her interpretation of this char acter in Europe created quite a sensation.
