WASHINGTON. Congress on the Cuban Question President Grant in Support of the Heavy Increase of Revenue in Virginia. WASHINGTON, Oct, 27, 1869, The Administration and the Cuban Question. ‘That all republican members of Congress are not agreed as to the policy that should be pursued in re- gard to Cuba is developed by the recent arrivals here. Iexplained in a previous despatch that the probabilities were that Congress, a3 a body, would force the Executive to take a stand in harmony with the national sentiment. Some recent prominent arrivals here, however, would indicate that j@nore moderate, though perhaps not so popular, measures will be favored by some leading republican Members. These latter state that, the Executive being in accord with Congress, \t would be improper either to advise or suggest the course which the former should pursue, Some express in their opinion doubts as to whether Congress will act at all, except by request of the President. They say if the President desires any legislation on the subject all he will have to do will be to express lis wishes, and he will be clothed with any necessary power in order to enable him to carry out his policy on that subjcet, It is understood that the President, will treat very fuliy tn his message on the Cuban question, giving its inauguration, pro- gress and present condition, pronounce his views on the subject and suggest to Congress what action he would deem it advisable for the legisiative arm of the government to take. Every republican member of the Senate or House of Representatives who has visited this city recently tas expressed bimself unqualifiedly in favor of the immediate recognition of Cuban independencey ‘The Approaching Session of Congress—Arrival of Members. Mombers of the Senate and House of Representa- fives are arriving here datly, looking for winter quarters, to be occupied during the approaching session of Congress. Judging from appearances the coming winter will be characterized by unusual gayety. Among those now in the city are Senator Cameron, who arrived here this afternoon from Bal- timore, baving been there on a vistt to the fair. Senators Thayer, of Nebraska, and Cole, of Califor- gia, are also here, together with Congressmen But- ler, Washburn, of Wisconsin; Leongrd, Myers, Gar- field, Slocum and Jenckes. Mr. Wasiburn leaves this evening on a visit to New England. Secretary Fish’s Late Diplomatic Dinner. The absence of the Ministers of Peru and Mexico from the dinner recentiy given by the Secretary of State was not occasioned, as stated in.a New York journal, by differences of opinion relative to Cuban affairs; neither did it result from any social misun- derstanding between“’the partics. The facts are these:—Colonel Freyre, the Peruvian Minister, called upon the Secretary of State and Ars. Fish immedi ately after his reception by the President in June last. The Secretary’s family did not arrive in W ish- ington until the middle of September. So soon as they were settled in their house Colonel and Mrs. Freyre called upon Mrs. Fish, and their visit was immeatlately returned by the Secretary of State and his lady. if they were not invited to the dinner in que-tion it was simply because it was not given to the whole diplomatic corps. Another is to be given by Secretary Fish on Thursday, the, 28th inst., at which the Peruvian Minister and his wife will be present, as also such other members of the diplomatic corps as were not invited to the first diner. It isa common practice ol Secretaries to dine the dip!omatic corps in instal- ments, and, of course, to invite on each occasion those members whose official or social relations are closest, The Mississippi Election—The President Op- posed to Judge De: Election. Senator Thayer, of Nebrhska, had a conversation ‘with Pfesident Grant yesterday on the subject of the Misslasippi elecudhs. He called the President's atter.on foa published telegram to the effect that Judge Dent was represented as saying that the President sugzained him as a candidate for Governor of thatState. The President said he had hiinseif seen the statement and had enclosed it to Judge Went, asking if he had been correctly reported. To tiis inquiry he had not as yet received a reply. The Presdeit further stated that In Adidat fast fie addressed Judge Dent a letter advising him not to connect himself with the conser- vative movement against the parcy now sup- porting Alcorn, the former being, he. sald, the enemies of the administration and government, While he was on good personal relations with Judge Dent, he nevertheless felt bound by public duty to oppose his election and desire the success of Alcorn. These views he unqunalifiedly and emphatically repeated to Senator Thayer. He belteved, from what he had heard, that Alcorn would be elected. Conversing on the subject of the Fifteenth amend- ment te the constitution of the United States, he expressed the hope that the Nebraska Legislature would be convoked this coming winter in oraer to ratify the amendment. The sessions of the Nebraska Legislature are biennial, and the next regular ses- sion wiil not take place tll January, 1871. North Carolina PoliticoGeneral Breaking Up of Partics—Now Party to be Organized. Axentieman, formerly United States Marshal of North Caroiina, who arrived here from that State to-day, says there ig about to be a general breaking up of political parties there. The Holden party, which has ruled with great bitterness in the interests of the ultra radicals since the State was recon- structed, has lost caste and its members are quar- relling among themselves. They have bronght the State to the verge of bankruptcy, and now that the State bonds are selling for about thirty-eight conta oa the Moet domé bt then ate socrey conniving at a repudiation of the Stato debt. The peopie, or at least the respect able portion of them, and especially the property owners, are 1eady to join any party organization that promises relief from the onerous taxes and bad Management of Holden and his frends, Holden is about deserting the extreme radicals, because he percetves that their power 18 at an end and will pro- bablly seek for admission in the new party. He has been so proscriptive, my informantisays, against all Who did not agree with him that he will get no favor atthe hands of the leaders of the new movement. The gentiemen propose to organize a party after the fashion of the Walker party in Virginia and the Senter party in Tennessee, with universal amnesty and impartial suffrage as the leading features. Fands for the Mississippi aud ‘oxus Cam- pai The presence of Governor Geary in this city 1s for the purpose, im co-operation with the Executive Committee of tho Union League of America, of devising means of ralsing money, to be used in the approaching elections in Missfsippi and ‘Texas, It 18 proposed to issue circulars for distribution among the leading republicans, in order to learn what they will contribute. It is desired to raise a handsome sum. The Louisville Commercial Convention. The following named genticmen were appointed a committee by the recent Louisville Commercial Con- vention to call upon the President the Ist of Novem- ber ana acquaint him with the objects the conven- tion had in view:—General Walbridge, of New York, chairman; Messrs, Duncan, of Kentucky; Corwin, of Ohio; Button, of Vermont; Clymer, of Penusylvania; Hilliard, of Georgia; Patton, of Alabama; Herbert, of Louisiana, and Lamb, of Virginia.

Secretaries Boutwell and Fis to-day stated to Mr. C. C. Washburne, member of Congreas and brother of E. B. Waskburne, present United States Minister to Paris, that the statement that the latter asked for $15,000 for extra oxpenses of the legation is entirely without foundation, Mr. Washburne, it will be remembered, while member of the House of Representatives and chairman on the Committe of Appropriations, was known as the watchdog of the Treasury. The severe pounding he invariably inflicted upon his desk, and the stentorian tones in which he-denounced every appearauce of useless or unnevessary expenses, were theso state- ments true, would argue quite a radical change since the gentleman has been represenUng the gov- ernment near the fashionable Court of the Tuileries. The New Secretary of War. A despatch from the new Secretary of War says that that gentleman will reach here to-morrow night or Friday morning. Settling the Old Accounts. The Fifth Auditor of the Treasury has written a letter to Solicitor Banfleld, stating that he finas upon the books of his office a considerable balance due the United States from individuals holding posi- tions as ministers, consuls and commercial agents at the time of the breaking out of the rebcilion in 1861, He is desirous of calling on such of these tate oMciais and their bondsmen as are living or can be found for the amounts thus standing unsettled, with @ view to having the same balanced. Increased Revenue from Tobacco in Virginia. Supervisor Presbury, of Virginia, reports to the Internal Revenue Office that the collection of the tax on tobacco in that State for the seven months ending September 39 was $2,194,353 99, againat $225,014 61 for the same period of last year, the Increase this year being $1,963,739 33. He estimates that the increase of revenue from tobacco in Vir- ginia for the year commencing March, 1859, and ending March, 1870, will be at least $3,000,000 greater than for the previous year. Falling Of in the Tobacco Crop. Information received at the Department of Agri- culture shows @ falling off of one-third of the to- bacco crop m Virginia and Maryland, and through- out Kentucky and the West about one-tenth. The reported frost last night inthe West will. cause a further deficlency. ce Seizure of Distilleries for Fraud.

Detective Brooks, of Fennsylvania, reports the seizure of the distillery of J. B. Good’s and the rectifying house of S. B. Hartman & Co., at Lancaster, Pa., for frauds. Tidal Wave in’ San Francisco—Supposed Earthquake in the Pacific Ovean. Information has been received at the Coast Survey OMe of a very marked earthquake wave having been recorded on the self-registering gauge in San Francisco on.Friday last, at five o’ctock P, M. From this the occurrence of a violent earthquake in some distant part of the Pacific Ocean may be in- terred, of which news will doubtless reach here be- fore long. The earthquake at Simoda in 1854, and the one which occurred in Peru in August of last year, were announced in tho same way. These wae ee ye sie tt Sa waves travel Acfoos the Paciile Ocean at an avéragé rate of about 360 miles an hour, depending on the depth of water along the track of the wave.

Wheeler, United States Marshal at Helena, Montana Terrivory, has forwarded to Secre- tary Cox areport of the United States Grand Jury of the Third Judicial District of Montana Territory, in regard to robberies and murders committed upon ciuzens there by predatory bands of Indians within the past few months, The report was sent witha view of calling attention to the exposed condition of the people there; and copies were aiso forwarded to Commissioner Parker, to the commander of the military district, and to General Sully, Superintend- ent of Indian Matters. The report of the Grand Jury states that it found, from the evidence of a great number of witnesaes, tnat the people of the Third district bave suffered, within a few months past, a great loss of life and property from roving bands of Indians, They had been furnished with the names of some nine or ten citizens who have been murdered in cold blood by them, Over 200 head of stock have been scolen within three months, and they believe ‘that within sfx nionihs iully 1,006 horses have been stolen and the lives of a number of yaltiable citizens sacridced. The report further say 7 The Peegans, Biodds and Blackfeet, who all talk the same language and constitute the Blackfoot nation, have moved their women and chiidren north of Montana into the British possessions for their safety, and In thatcountry have procured supp.les, ammanition and improved arms, This ts a declara- tion of war upon the whites of Montana by these Indians, and so;ne measures should be adopted for meeting the emergency. The civii authorities have not the means and the people are not abie to bear the expense of pursuing and punisiing these robbers id murderers who destroy our property and our lives and come and go like the wind. Ours is a con- test between civilization and barbansm, and we must risk our lives and sacrifice our hari property to defend them unless the general govern- ment gives us the means of defence. To this'we are entitled, as we have lett homes of comfort in the Kast to plant civilizauon in the wiiderness, It is in evidenco that the Pen d’oretlies, who make periodical journeys from their nomes to tie valley of Wie Yellowstone on hunting expeditions through some of the settied portions o; our territory are guilty of horse stealing, If not murder. Their Passage through our setued va'leys snould be pros hipited by the authorities. The River Crows mur- dered two white men near Fort Gentoa about the 20th of July last, end took their horses to their can In hone ol these cases Of marder and theft have the Indians been pursued and punished. Our population 1s necessarily scattered along the valleys and aro isolated in miaing camps and guiches, and hence are peculiarly exposed to sudden attacks from Indians, The Grand Jury further state that the report 1s made in the hope that the proper officers of the general government will take the steps neces- sary togive them full protection, or, if the means in their hands are not adequate, they Will represent the matter to the heads of the government here who have the authority and means to punish and preveut lndian depredations.

In November, 186%, the slip Aquilla, owned by Donahue, Ryon & Secor, @ Californian firm, having ariived in San Francisco from New York laden with the materiais and armament of the monttor Comanche, which was to be constructed under contract with the government by that drin, sunk at her moorings im port. ‘Lue owners of the stip abandoned ship and cargo, the latter being but partially insuced, to the agent ol che underwriters at >ua Francisco, The agent did not accept, but Joindy with the government superintendent ior the vuliding of the monitor took vigorous measures to gave the property), wt.ci. were continued for several Weeks at @ Cust to the underwriters of $38,000, but were iinaliy given up. ‘the Coast Wrecking Com- pany at New LorK at Us juncture agreed with the underwriters to undertake the salvage of the mate- Tiaig of the monitor, and despatched to San lran- cisco # party of provessiovals, under command of the superintendent of the company, which commenced Operatiuns the latter part of January, 1844, wad com- pleted the service in avout ix months. ‘The original value of the properiy saved—the materials, &c., for the monitor—was $400,000, $60,000 of which was un- insured, The Wrecking Company recetved $95,000 for the service, balf cash and half in currency; but $15,000, represented by the Columbian Insurance Company (the company haying fatied), was nov paid. To recover the $15,000 unpaid by te ‘Columbian Insurance Company and salvage on the $60,000 uninsured this liber was filed, In the District Court below the decree was for the Libellants, aud they were awarded the sum of $24,062 26, with inte- rest. That decree was adirmed at the Circalt, and the cause was then brought here, the appellants cianning that the company cannot claim as a salvor because @ salvor is one who renders personal service Which can be claimed only by persons en- waged therem. If the libellané can be @ saivor it cannot clan as the, sole suivor, and payment to it would be no protection to the claunants against its employés, each of whom can maintain his separate action for iis services. It 1s aiso contended that this 18 pot a case of salvage service, because a contract was made with the company to perform the service for # sum certain, and that even if it is held to be acase of Salvage the amount allowed in this case violates the established principles of law aud justice regulating compensation ior salvage. It 1s also objected that the decree is vague and uncertain, The company contend that tue service was eminently a salvage service. It was a service voiunturily rendered by thom im the gaving of the cargo in peril on board of the wrecked ship, The case presents all the imgre- dients of a salvage service, tue danger from wiich the property was rescued, the vaiue of the property, the risk incurred in the salvage, tho value of the property empioyed itn the service, the skill and knowledge suown in rendering the service, and the tume aad labor expended. i’nbiic policy requires tuias service to be compensated, not in pro- portion to the value of the property, but tn proportion to the hazard of the service, with a View to tie encouragement of such aurvices. The Same policy demanus that the means of salvage Shall be the most efficient possivle; heuce the Court of Adiiralty has not hesitated 10 accept all bene- ficial mode aud instruments Of salvage serv 4 rnich from tue to time are devoloped by the pro- sive furces of society, even though they may depart from tne settled rule of decision. ‘The old rue that none can claim salvage who do not take part in person in the service has been oiteu disregarded in nuportant cases, aud is now rather the excepuon than the rule, as where @ ship sends part cf ber crew on salvage service thoso who remain on board are eutitied tu share im the salvage earned, Where salvage was allowed to the owner of the ship engaged in tne service, though he was absent and ignorant of the transaction. ‘This departure in favor of the OwWuer of the vessel was carried still further in the case of steamers when they first came into use, The greatly increased power and ellictency Ol these vessels, then anew force in the maritime world, were cordially welcomed in ardimiralty in the first cage that arose.

Chief Justice Chase said, in reply to the sugges- tion of Mr. Philips yesterday, that it was undoubt- edly a matier of discreuon when to move for a writ Of Liabeas corpus in the Yerger case. ‘The point of jurisdicuon having been determined the Court ‘would hear a motion for tne writ whenever counsel should see proper to make tt, The following named cases were argued:—Aven- dano Brothers, plaintit in error, vs. Edward J. - Gay—In error to whe Circuit Court for the Southern District of Louisiana, invoiving an advance of money to ratse the crops of 18¢5-6.

The piece—whicn, by the by, we may bere be permitted to say, 18 @ rollicking Spanish story of love and intrigue at cross purposes, with everything coming right in the end—was produced in Manager Daly's customary s:yle, with good acenery, appropriate costumes and a cast of more than ordinary excelionce. Mrs. Scott-Siddons, as Donna Hypolita, made & most fascinating littie cava- her, and aside from experiencing an unusual amount of trouble with her hat, 1ooked and acted her partin the most pleasing manner possipie. Miss Agnes Ethel, as Donna Rosara, was a little tll at caso early in the evening; but as the play progressed her nervousness wore olf and she was all that the char- acter demanded, Miss Maric Longmore, as Flora, wus very goog; but she did a litue more bowing and scraping than was called for. Her manuer of getting over the stage reminded one forcibly of the spas- modic attempts of a good sized grasshoppe ro Fanny Davenport, as Viletta, was ex ingly charming, and succeeded in carrying of a large share of the honors. Messrs, Clarke, Davidge, Lewis, Holland and Harkins in their several roles wero all that core be qed and contributed in no small measure e enjoyment of the evening and the success of the lec’, Throughout the entire four acts, which con- sUtatgs the play, the atidience, which was one of the largest ever assembled within this cosy litte dijon were kept In the best of humor, and freely be- stowed their applause whenever a fitting opportu- HUF 6MoFsd. Those npon tne surge wpracntly their best to please those m the auditorium, aiid {hie result was & most delightful and enjoyable entél tainment. Upon the whole last night's performer was a grand success, and reflects credit alike upon both management and artists, After one or two more representations the piece will doubtless Le in splendid working order, and can then be een to advantage.
