ifest tendency towards a Swedenborgian Episcopacy; his eloquent exposition of the power of certain words, which ‘‘are said to be but breath, but they come with power,” and “‘would open the gates of the corruption of old, which made Christendom a ‘Babylon, and would therefore, he hoped, not be adopted ;” his pertinent illustrations from ecclesiastical history ; his strenuous opposition to the ambi- tion of the clergy to elevate themselves into a priesthood ‘‘removed from common humanity,” and to the unrepublican features of the paro- chial and diocesan system advocated by some members of the Convention, provoked one of the delegates to ask sneeringly “‘if they were in a convention of God’s New Church or in an assembly of Spiritualists or Unitarians, that ‘such outcries against the bugbear of the priest- hood were heard?” Professor Parsons an- swered that “‘they were in God’s New Church, ‘and because he wished it to remain so he op- posed the opening of gates that would let in desolation.” After sqme further debate the whole subject was laid on the table, to be taken up to-day, when the discussion will pro- bably be renewed with increased activity. It is to be hoped that our Swedenborgian brethren will compose their little internal dis- sensions in time to celebrate harmoniously in 1870 the centenary of the New Church. Mr. Barlt fame, the Chinaman, on Amerie can Affairs. At the recent farewell banquet offered by the American residents in Paris to General Dix, after an eloquent speech by the retiring Minister, another eloquent speech was made by Mr. Burlingame, formerly United States Minis- ter to China, but at present Envoy Extraordi- nary—very extraordinary—from the Central Flowery Kingdom to the. United States and the principal States of Eurepe. The most remark- able characteristic of this speech is the fact that while Mr. Burlingame expatiates upon the mar- vellous progress of the American people, their memorable struggles for liberty during the Revolution and the late rebellion, and the prospective grandeur of the United States, he says nota single word about China! Mani- festly he forgets for the moment that he is no longer a United States Minister, an American citizen and a Bostonian. He forgets that he is a grand Panjandrum himself, with a little round red button on the top of his cap, a Chinese Mandarin with a ruby, an accredited representative of the Brother of the Sun and the Uncle of the Moon; in fine, a Chinaman and nota Yankee. So long as he regularly receives his annual salary of forty thousand dollars in gold, with all expenses paid, he should not be so forgetful. He should seize every occasion to speak, in season and out of season, about the Chinese empire and the four hundred million subjects of the Chinese Em- peror. From the day when he first accepted his extraordinary mission and during his faith- ful and energetic efforts to fulfil it in this country we have cheerfully sustained him. But we must call upon him in the name of the Hoang-ti and of the entire Chinese population not to forget it in Europe. If requisite, in order not to forget his cue, let him wear a cue. Let him pay his official visits to the princes and potentates of the West in official costume, with shaven crown and braided tail, gaudily em- broidered satin and loose blue crape over- dress. He should not wear again even the Burlingame collar, which, with his portrait, is now on exhibition in the Broadway shop windows, until he shall have fully accomplished his mission, resigned his portfolio, bowed his farewell before ‘‘the Dragon’s throne,” and arrived safely home in Massachusetts. Greenbacks Versus National Bank Currency. It is clear that the people of this country, and particularly those in the West and rural districts, show a marked preference for the greenback currency over that of the national banks. They make a positive distinction be- tween the two in their business transactions, ahd the time is approaching, evidently, when the legal tender will be at a premium over the bank note. This arises, in a measure, from Jocking up, according to law, twenty-five per cent of legal tenders as a reserve of the national banks, and partiy from the combina- tions at this money centre to make the legal tender currency scarce, and thereby to profit ‘by such a state of things. But after all the «people like the government money—the green- ‘backs—best. There is not a farmer in the country, when he puts away money in his stocking, that does not take the legal tenders in reference to national bank notes. This is natural, for he knows that,the former are ‘based directly on the credit of the govern- ment and are as safe as the government itself, while he does not take the trouble or care to inquire how far the government may be re- sponsible for the circulation of these private corporations. That is an open question the solution of which may depend upon circum- stances; but there is no doubt as to the green- backs. Thus we begin to see the evil of two ‘kinds of currency, and the prospect is that the Megal tenders will be more and more locked up ‘by combinations of speculators and hoarded by individuals, and in this way be made ecarcer than ever. This syatem is complicated and leads to speculations, to fluctuations in ‘the money market, to the benefit of great capitalists, and to the oppression of business amen and the poor. We want a uniform cur- wency--the legal tender currency—in which ‘the people will have confidence, and from which the government will derive—instead of @rivate corporations—the profits of a national ‘circulation. It is evident that something will ‘have to be done by Congress to place the cur- wency of the country on a firm and satisfactory basis. The present mixed system was only experimental and has proved a failure. We are just drifting along under it. There is no element of permanency init. The remedy is a simple one—the substitution of legal tenders for national bank notes. We hope Congress, @6 800n asit assembles, will apply this remedy and give unity and stability to our currency system. LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.

TELEGRAPHIC NEWS FROM ALL PARTS OF THE WORLD Landing of Several Expedi- tions in Cuba Reported Defeat of One of Them by the Spaniards, More Arbitrary Arrests in the Interior. REVOLUTIONS IN MEXICO. Arrival of Minister Nelson at Vera Cruz. MINING RIOTS IN FRANCH. Difficulty Between Egypt and Turkey. CUBA. General Quesada Reports Two Victories—Re- turn of General Ferrer to NuevitasCuolera Among the Troops—A Committee of Volun- teers Captured—Two Expeditions Landed— General Buceta Murdered by His Troops. Havana, June 15, 1869, we have copies of the Mami, a Cuban paper pub- lished at Guaimaro, containing General Quesada’s report dated say 16, of two victories obtained by the patriot forces over the Spauiards on the road be- tween Puerto Padre and Las Tunas. They state that the Spanish troops retreated panic-stricken with a loss of 250 kilied and wounded. Tne loss of the Cu- bans is twenty-five. Spanish advices from Nuevitas to the 11th state that General Ferrar, with his command, returned to that port on the 8th, having assisted in escorting a convoy to Las Tunas. A desperate fight took place at Reinosa, where the artillery compelled the patriots to retire, which they did in good order. The attacks upon the convoy were continued until it was near Las Tunas. The troops were not molested on their return, On the day of their arrival nineteen cases of cholera occurred among then of which seven died. A train from Puerto Principe arrived at Nuevitas on the loth, A hand car in advance was captured, with a committee of volunteers going to Havana to obtain the removal of General Letona. ‘The Spanish officers and troops are disheartened. They find their work inglorious and their com- manders without ability except to make exagger- ated reports of operations, Advices from Santiago de Cuba to the 8th state that two expeditions have landed, one near Guaata- namo and another near Baracoa. The frst named is reported to have been annihilated and their war material captured. The fact of the case probably 1s that a party sent from the expedition to commu- nicate with the patriots has been cut off and that the situation of the main body is precarious, but they have not Been captured. It ts again rumored that the soldiers have murder- ed the Spanish General Buceta. More Filibusters Landed—They Succeed in Joining General Jordan Unmolested— Spaniurds Getting Frightened—Arrests and Espionage. Havana, June 16, via Key West, June 17, 1869, An expedition of about six hundred filibusters from the United States are reported to have landed recently at Punto Arenas. They effected the landing without being molested, and immediately marched to the interior, where they joined the forces under Jordan. The Spaniards are getting frightened. Arbitrary arrests still continue to be made, and the system of espionage 1s increasing. Importance of the Victory at Puerto del Pa- dre—Successfal Landing of Filibustering Ex- peditions—Spanish Dread of American Fili- busters—Cobans Masters of the Situation. WASHINGTON, June 17, 1869. Intelligence received here by the friends of Cuba represent that the fight at Puerto del Padre was of more importance than at first reported. The effect of the defeat of the Spanish troops was decisive, al- most destroying the effectiveness of the Spanish forces in that portion of the island. It opens up di- rect communication with the coast, and enables the forces of the Cuban army to protect the landing of reinforcements from the United States, The friends of Cuban independence here are very solicitous to hear from General Jordan’s command. It 18 known that for some days he has been in close proximity to a large Spanish force and a collision was imminent at any time. Generals Cespedes and Quesada are re- ported to be confident that they are masters of the situation and that the independence of Cuba 1s a certainty. Every expedition which has left the United States has successfully landed and joined General Quesada’s army, and now compose a for- midable and effective force and are a terror to the government troops. In every collision they are the victors. They waste no ammunition. Every shot is represented as certainly fatal in its effect. HAYTI. Departure of a Filibuster Sten from Boston—Hayti Her Supposed Destination— Sulnave’s Minister Outwitted. Boston, June 17, 1869. ‘The steamer Delphine, Captain McKim, arrived at this port on Sunday last frown Philadelphia, ostensibly with a cargo of coal on board for this market. The steamer has since been lying at Grand Junction wharf in a very quiet manner, giving no outward sign of anything irregular in the movements aboard, and apparently the public had no cause of suspect ing her business here to be other than that of a purely mercantile character. Yesterday, however, some information was given to the Haytien Charg¢é d’Affaires, George Raester, who was a guest of the city, which caused him at once to make an effort to detain the steamer, on the ground that she ‘was designed to render aid to the rebels in Hayti; but unfortunately for the purpose no United States officials could be found to take action in regara to the matter, owing to their temporary absence from the city, In the meantime the steamer had escaped. She, disappeared from her berth some time in the night and passed the outer marine stations at High- land Light and Cape Cod at ten o'clock this fore- noon on her way to sea, She took out clearance papers yesterday for Kingston, Jamaica, at the Custom House, after usiness hours, and according to her manifest she is laden with rovisions, The revenue oa under direc- ion of Collector Russell, have had some sur- veillance over her for a day or two past, and nothing occurring to warrant her detention on th part she was furnished with the usual papers when going on a foreign voyage. Her sudden departure so soon after the action of the Haytien Chargé d'Affaires would seem to give strength to the suppo- sition that she has on board material for the revels in the isiand of Hayti, who, at last accounts, were ap- eee, gaining important advan over Sainave, he ruler of that distracted island. The Delphine is a sidewhee! steamer, of about 1,000 tons register, echooner rigged, painted lead color and hails from Boston. She ha crew of thirty men. The Del- ine is a regular gunboat and was formerly owned y the United States government, She 18 capable of doing good service in any warlike encounter, Her owners have taken out aten per cent war risk at the insurance o/tices.

Discussions in the Houses of Parli: Lonpon, June 17—Midnight. In the House of Commons to-night Mr. Otway, Under Foreign Secretary, in reply to an inquiry of Mr. Beaumont, said when the republic of Mexico was re-established it declined intercourse with the Powers which recognized the empire. The British Minister at the city of Mexico consequently with- drew. Her Majesty's government had no objection to reopen relations, but overtures must come from Mexico. Mr. Gladstone, in reply to a question from Dr. North, explained that Mr. Bright wrote nis recent letter to the Birmingham meeting without consult. ing his colleagues, and on his own responsibility. The government had no intention of threatening the House of Lords. Each estate of the kingdom was entitled to the fullest freedom of speech and he would regard with great jealousy any at- tempt to interfere with it, especially if made by @ Minister of the Crown. He himself, and his colleague, Mr. Bright, both discouraged any popular action tending to interfere with the in- Gependence of the House of Lords. Whenever overtures had been made to them to attend public meetings they had both steadily decs~ad. In the House of Lords to-night there was a crowded attendance, and great interest was mani- fested in the proceedings. Lord Cairns, amid cheers from the opposition, put the question whether Mr. Bright's letter had been expected by the other members of the gov- ernment, and whether in the present crisis it was @ proper support and assistance to the govern- ‘ent. He said the government must either endorse or repudiate the letter. Earl Granville, tn reply, admitted the aucnenti- city of the letter, and -aid the Cabinet had declined to discuss the policy to be pursued if the bill should be rejected. He knew that neither of his col- leagues, except Mr. Bright, had any knowledge of the contents of the letter until it was published. He thought the Cabinet was not responsible for the individual opinions of its members, and for himself regretted Mr. Bright's language; but he had Mr. Bright’s autho- rity for stating that he had no intention to express disrespect to their lordships, and that if any pain had been caused to them by his words he expressed unfeigned regret.

The editor of the paper was sentenced to six months imprison- ment and to pay a fine of 3,000f., and each printer in the establishment was sentenced tv one months im- prisonment and to pay a fine of 1,000f. A very formidable collision occurred yesterday at St. Evlenne, among the coal miners on the one hand, and the national troops on the other, whereby several lives were lost. The miners made an attempt to res- cue some prisoners held by the military. Firearms were used on both sides, but the rioters were at length dispersed after seven of their number had been killed and many injured.

In the Cortes to-day General Prim declared that all military ofMicers who refused to take the oath of respect and obey the new constitution would have their names struck from the rolls of the army. Seflor Sogasta, Minister of the Interior, said now that the constitution and the regency have been adopted the shouting of republican cries in the streets would be considered a legal offence, and would be prohibited. This declaration produced a great sensation in the Chamber. Marshal Serrano will take the oaths of office as Regent of Spain on Friday. Troubles are appre- hended on the occasion. GERMANY. Reception Festivities at Bremen, Bremen, June 17, 1869, King William to-day opened the new naval port at Heppens, at the mouth of the Jahde river. He made @speech, in which he returned thanks to the pro- moters of the enterprise. He said, “although the late King commenced this work political circum- stances subsequently interfered with the establish- ment of a German port here. But Providence had now permitted him to accomplish what his brotner began. He would look with cheerful confidence for the development in the future of the young German navy.” ITALY. ?rorogation of Parliament.

The Liederkranz Festival at Lion Park. ‘The Liederkranz was, it may well be said, more than usually fortunate tn selecting yesterday evening for their first summer night's festival of the present year. The sky was clear and starlit, but few clouds obstructing the twinkling jets of the starry heavens rom reaching this snblunary spot. The air was ex- ceedingly pleasant, neither too cool nor too warm, the temperature being as if it had been spectaily re- gulated with the aid of a thermometer, in view of increasing the pieasurable enjoyment of the socie:y and its guests. And best of ali, there was not a speck of the moon to be seen—that satrap of the earth, which, by its siivery rays, would have lessened the beautiful effect of the illumination of the grounds and the buildings, and ‘might have bleached the light from the garlands of Chinese lan- terns which almost covered the extensive grounds of Kapf’s Lion Park, on 110th street and Ninth ave- nue, And the effect of all these was indeed grand. From the Eighth avenue and from the hills of the northern end of the Park, the Belvidere and mam- moth balcony facing east shone out in the bright- ness of day beautifully—one is almost tempted to say “embroidered’’—in all the colors of the rambew. Flags and banners, gently wafted-on Lie ligt breeze, gave pois @appui to the view trom a distance. And the crowd! Every avatiable space was fliled by rejoicing and joyful humanity. In the Beividere, where Bernsteti’s orchestra discoursed dancing music and the yong and, lor that matter, a goodiy number also of the old people failed not to avail them- seives and tipped the light fantastic toe” to the delight of all, the number present was immense, idom has there been a festival, either of the Lie- derkranz or 01 any other equally promiuept and pop- uiar society, at this place or anywhere else, which crew together such a multitude of the creme de la creme of the German population and of those circles of our American society whose knowledge of live and life’s best pleasures induces them to seek recreation among those who best understand how to arrange for them. As late as between eleven o'clock and midnight carrtages continued to arrive, bringing new and astonished guests—asionished at the general radiance of the piace in pout of decoration and the (perhaps unex- pected) beauty and fasbion so apparent and which gave such tncreased interest to the festival. The arrangements were everything could be desired under the direction of Messrs, T. Classen, Ph. Komp aud G. Titus, the committee. The handsome decorations of the place were furnished by Mr. Theodore Guensel. Sammer Night’s Festival of the Benevolent Union. The Montefiore Benevolent Union last evening held a Summer Night’s Festival at the Central Park Garden, the proceeds of which will be devoted to its charitable fund. The members and their friends turned out in great strength, and the assemblage ‘was a most select and yet @ jovial one. Music was furnished by Theo, Thomas’ well known orchestra, and it 1s neediess to say that the performances were of @ most excellent character. The utmost good feeling prevailed all through the festivities, which were kept up with great zest until the smail hours were weil upon the happy throng. The Montefiore Union has reason for double congratulations, both as to the pleasantness of the festival and the solid ae ga which its proceeds made to its charitabie und, WORKING WOMENS’ ASSOCIATION. Montefiore The usual crowd gathered at Plimpton Buildings last evening at eight o'clock, inconsistency predom- inating and Miss Anthony presiding. A committee of three had been appointed at the Previous meeting to represent the “Association” at a German festival, but with characteristic slipperiness each and every one 01 the trio had neglected the duty assigned them, and their Teutonic brethren had been mercifully let alone. After this little omission had been satisfactorily explained Mrs. Morton read very emphatically an essay prepared by herself upon the negro, which represented ‘our African brothers” so- cially and politically, and which would have been very suitable for an anti- ry meeting ten years and ended with an ology and resolution concerning Secretary Borie’s eight hour system. Several persons present failed to perceive how black progression could influence or assist white working women, and boldly desired to know what business Secretary Borie’s “system? had im their organization, but after considerable discussion the resolution was voted on and adopted. Mrs. BURLEIGH then read @ letter from Mr. Schou- hof, which mixed together rather indistinctly wo- men, politics, politictaus and social equality. Mr. NEWHOLD, With praiseworthy frankness, con- feased to not understanding the epistle. Mrs. Buriewh explained at length, but the oe either could not or would not understand, and with a sigh for masculine thick-headedness the lady resumed her seat. The Presipent then introduced Eleanor Kirk. That oratress arose with on readiness which showed that something of importance was a the tapis, but Miss Anthony in the meantime had forgotten all about her and went on taiking. Elenor fnaliy took the stand, and declared herself disgusted with the way the association had of mixing up things. ‘‘Hash’* she declared would do occasionally, but as a steady articie of {diet it was detestable. She de- sired to be informed if it was really @ woman's suf- frage organization or what it had purported to be when first started—an institution for the relief of Miss Anthony, she said, had ridden a suifrage horse for twenty years, and was pertectly excusable if semi-occasionaily she galloped in and few capers. Behind that the wholesale de- jon of men Was both discourteous and un- womanly, God had not made @ mistake in making the two genders, and for every mean man that the female sianderers would bring her she would find his mateh in @ mean woman, She was frequently interrupted by rounce of appiause. Then followed an animated discussion in which Mrs, Norton and Francis Barry took a prominent part; bat Mr. Pilisbury emerged from his sheli of reserve for the nonce, seconded Eiimor’s remarks valiantly, and fairly squelctied the opposite party. This address ended the meeting, and, after the cus- tomary request for funds, the members departed homeward, to meet again in two weeks, San Francisco INcomes.—The list of incomes of San Francisco district for iast year shows four names: put down for $100,000 and over.
