Havana, Noy, 6, 1869, {Under the energetle r’gime of General de Rodas fective measures are being inaugurated to demon- strate his oftimes repeated announcement thet the Insurrection in this isiand 1s near its termination. On Thursday evening his Excellency, 12 company With big secretary and certain members of his stat, leit (he capital for Cienfuegos to take personal cog- nizance of tie operations about commenolng In that violnity, ‘Inis visit has been long in contemplation, but duties connected with the general aduinisira- tlomhere have coimpelied its postponement until the present. Simultaneous with his departure is made known through the press that @ determmned effort 4s to be made to clear out the Cienega de Zapata, which, as will bo seen by @ glance at the map, comprises the western part of the jurisdiction of Cienfuegos, As its name indicates, this locality comprizes a Jow, swampy Wilderness, It 1s unin- habitea and very diilicult of passage; indeed, at certain seasons, this is entirely impracticable, It has quite along extent of sea coast, and in the bay orcove of Cochinos light draught vessels can enter and land their cargoes and passengers without dim- culty. There have been, at various times, reports of landings there, and though none of them have been ‘Well authenticated its convenience of access and the ease with which supplies can be placed beyond the reach of the Spanish troops render them proba- ble. In the almost impenetrable fastnesses to be found there, the insurgents, habituated to the deadly olimate, have remained in perfect safety and un- + Moleated, save in one instance, when a party of thom were said to be surrounded by a detachment Of the troops known as “Chapelzorria,” and great results were promised, concerning which we afver- wards heard nothing. They are sald to number about 2,000 and are under the command of General Rolof, known a3 El Polaco, the Pole, They gre ‘mostly made up of daiiees Radios, ag Say ns Spanish reports, ‘The attack upon them will be made bota by sea and nud. ‘The forces to operate by gga left Havana ‘@ few days since, under command of Colonel Baile, for the Bay of Cochinas, ‘hose by land will occupy the roads leading into the Cienega, and will con- sist of 160 chapelgorris, which left Cardenas at day- Ught on Tuesday last, 150 of the Guarala Civil of Colon and Bemba and five companies of the Battalion de Leon, the whole to be under the command of Don Martin Blas, a commandant of tried courage and much experience. Much good 13 expected to result from the movement, sna the Spaniards promise it sball be the beginning of a fast approaching con- summation, the entire suppression of the insutrec- lon, While all operations are being conducted with Much secrecy, there are certain indications which lead to the beilef that General de Rodas? plan is to drive the insurgents trot more westerly polnis they now occupy, from Cinco Villas, Santi Espiritu and Remedios, thereby preserving many estates now threatened with destruction, and compel their concentration in Camaguey and votnts east, ‘Where it will be dificnlt for then to obtain a and enabling the troops to attack large bodteg of them. Meanwhile from various points, Mansanilio, Santiago de Cuba, Nuevitas and others, come views of extraordinary activity, showing that a metnodized and energetic campaign has been entered upon, In the light of these preparations and of well Known facts touching the revolution here, the fact is Pad that the Cuban F pewipeg are about to undergo eir severest trial, and that it will require a concen- tration of all their power and energies both at home and abroad to stand u> against the onslaught to be made upon them, Certain documents captured from the insurgents have been pubiushed in the tal Gazette of this city. They go to show the continued activity of the Cubans in carrying out their policy of destroying estates and so weakenin: the pecupiary power of their enemy. ‘The first 1 from D. F.

HOSAIBLE TRAGEDY WW IOWA, An Insane Mother=Threo Children Killed, (Marshalltown, Iowa (Noy, 5), correspondence Chix cago Journal.) A most diabolical came came to light io the towne ship of Hden, in the southwest part of this county, on Tuesday morning last—no less than the murder of three children and the sudden disappearance of their mother, The particulars are as follows, as near as I ct ther them: Mr. H, D.

She was only about twenty years of ege, and is said to have been a pleasant and attractive woman. Acting upon the theory of insauity, all efforts to unravel the horrid mystery have been in that direction, My own opinion is that the poor woman was not the mur- aerer of her innocent children, but that 1¢ was the work of some fiend who destroyed her and her babes: to cover up another crime—a case not unlike that for which a man was hung in your State a few days pall At the latest advices the mother had not been ound. THE LIBERTY STREET HORROR. Coroner’s Inquest on the Burning of the Jessup Family=Verdict of Censure Against a Policeman—Iyteresting Testimony. Coroner Flynn yesterday held an inquest, at the Second precinct station house, on the death of the Jessup family, who perished i the fire in Liberty street on the 29th of October, ‘This inquest had been postponed several times, and its opject was to determine if the death of the family resulted from any negligence on the part of the police. Fire Marshal Brackett testitied that he had tnves- tigated the circumstances of the firo al No. 63 Liberty street, and from depositions and other evidence in his possession was Informed of all the facts in tho case; the tre broke out ina room at the rear of the second floor, occupied by S. Raymond as a printing ofiice; about half an hour previous to the flre a man named Tesiut, employed in the printing office, not having gas, took a handful of cotton waste, saturated itwith benzine, placed it on an iron plate which rested on @ small box placed ina chair, near the printing press, and set fire to the waste for the purpose of lighting the room, ‘The blaze was about sixteen inches high and eight Inches in diam- eter at the base. After working about fifteen min- ns by this light the boy Higgins (who had been sent for a candle) returned, and the burning cotton Waste was thrown into the grate with two pieces of wood, the plate being too hot to be handled. A few minutes later the. place Was closed for the night, and huif an hour afterward the flames were discovered in thisroom from the street. There were near the printing preas a large quantity of cotton waste, & can of benzino and a can of machine oil; he (the Fire Marshal) arrived at the fire about fifteen in‘nutes after the alarm was given, gud while conversing with Captain De Camp, opposi the burning building, Assistant Engineer Vonley, of the Fire Department, came up and stated thai the bodies of four persons had been discovered on the upper floor of the building, While they were talking about the subject a_ police- man, whom he had since ascertained to be Cornelius Martineau, of the Second precinct, came up and stated that at the commencemnt of the ike, and whi'e he was ta tie butiding at (be head of the drst fight of stairs, he met aman and woman, whom he suposed to be the janitor and his wile, and who weit up into the fourth story. The policeman said he had warned m ol their peril, but that the man and Woman repiled that there was no danger, and the heat und smoxe being aiready aimost overpowering, he was compelled, with several firemea also present, to go down siaira. ln reply to the inquiry if he had given any, alarm respecting the presence ol persous ia the building, the policeman sald) he had told the Fire Marshal, and pointed to Assisiant Engineer Conley as being the person he had notiied., The policeman then returned to his beat in the immediate vicinity, and afterwards stated that at tne time of the fire he also notified tne men of the Insurance Patrol. He (the Marshal) had questioned Assistant Engineer Contey and the Insurance Patrol, who stated that the policemaa had nos told them of there beiug per- sons in the oullding, and that the first knowledge they had of the persons Was when informed that four bodies had been found, The Marshal also tes- tifled that he believed the fire to have been the result of gross careiessnes3 on the part of toe employes of Mr. Kaymonc, Captain Morris Decamp testified in corroboration of the above. Assistant Engineer Conley testified that abont ten minutes after che alarm of ilre was given and some five ninutes after his arrival at (ne spot he was in- Jormed by private watchman Haskins that there was a fami'y in the building, and that he did not know whether they baa escaped; he (Conley) 1mme- diately seut @ party of inen through the ad- joming building to the roof to effect an entrance throcgh the scuttle, but upon reach- ing that place and breaking open the scuttie, which was found to be firmly fastened on the inside, they discovered that they conid not get down the ladder at the time in consequence of the heat and smoke. <Atter the fire had been extinguished a pid Went up stairs and found the Janitor, George essup, his wife and two children, lying dead at the foot of the ladder leading to the scuttie, where they had evidently been suffocated before the flames reached them. He (Conley) had recetved no intorm- ation at the time avout the persons 1a the building exceptfrom the watchman Haskins, Join Kiaimens, ain of the Fire Insurance Patrol, testifled that he arrived at the fire five inin- utes after the alarm; that he heard nothing of any persons being in the butting until the bodies werd found, and that his men had informed him ia answer to his interrogations that no one had told them any- thing about 2 family being in the building until we discovery of the dead. ‘The Jury rendered a verdict that George, Letitia, Wiluara and Jon Jessup “came to their deaths by suffocation at a fire at No. 68 Liberty street on tio Qeth of October, 1269, and we consider officer Cor- nejius Mart a deserving of censure in not notily- ing the firemen of the fact that the persons the building at the time of their arrival, wi he wae aware of.” 2 “64 DEMONIAC INVENTION?

Rio JANerno, Sept, 24, 1869, Since I last wrote nothing further in the way of fighting has been reported from Paraguay, and the allies gave up the pursuit upon the 22d of August, their horses being completely worn out by the heavy forced marches through a country whose bottoms are a series of ponds, intersected with boggy ground, Which a little trampling converts into a depthiess mud hole, So after the litle affair on the 2lstot August, in which the Argentine cavalry cut up 200 to 400 Paragmayans escorting some bagzage, before they could cross a deep stream, the advanced troops of the ales fell back to Earaguatay, situated on a tributary of the Manduvira, where the other pursu- ing troops had stopped to rest and to recelve rations, No despatches have been published as yet, or, I helieve, received, but the government has issued the following summar, According to arrangement tho First army corps moved from Piraya ou the aigit of July 31, and the Second army corps on the morning of the 8d. On the 6h was ent guarding the bush road of § @, ant two pleces of cannon, on. ny Was driven from the bush road to ® key of the Cordilleras, On the ith our npied this village without resist- ance, Near it was the mine whence Lovez got sul- pur, and the plantation of his mother. wheré all the valuables of whe churches in Paraguay were gathered up. On the 10th the army encamped in sh; bebuy. On the i2th this place was assa taken after a few minutes of stubborn st r which our infantry showed the greatest heroism. ‘The piace was defended by 2,000 men, all of whom, without a single exception, fell into our arms, dead or alive. In that village were found large stores of victuals, including some of the finest wines of Europe, some bullion, much Brazilian paper money and all the archives of Lopez's government, Among the papers coniamed in the great number of boxes holding the archives are the originals or tho treaties made by Paraguay and curious documents regard- ing the renowned conspiracy of 1868 against the dictator Lopez. The taking of Perebebuy appears to have been what caused Lopez to abandon Ascurra, as he left it Ou the 13th with ail his army and passed the night a little beyond Caacupé, as became known when on the morning of the 15tn our armyigot to that village. Tt was immediately settled to pursue him oy march- ing the two army corps by two roads running more or less parallel. The march was 80 rapa jhat on the 16th the main forces of the eremy’s ania Was Caught between the two corps of ours and was obliged to accept battle at the place called Nnuguassau, or Great prairie, This most stubborn struggle wes with the Virst army corps, commanded by General José Lulz Menna Barretto, the Visconde do Terval hay- ing, through the bad state of his health, been obliged to retire that same morning. In the end, by turee P, M., the enemy was completely beaten, and he leit twenty-three cannon in our power. ‘The 17th was a day of forced reat, the troops not having eaten auring the forty-eight hours precoding. General Pedra was slightly wounded with a lance in the baitie of the 16th. ‘Tie killed of the enewy on that day was estimated at 2,000. On the 18th the Second army corps also annihl- lated 1,000 enemies, who guarded, with ten picces of cannon, the bush road leading to Caraguatay. Im- modiatéely alter coming to this last point the pursuit of the enemy was continued by the Argentine army and the Brazilian forces, under General Jose Auto, wich, not having made’ the flank marci, were ihe best condition, The enemy was pursued to the Hondo, and he there lost, besides many deserters, 309 Killed and a large quanuty of baggage, amid which were found many articles of Lopez's anda Mra. Lynch’s pereonal use, but eleven leagues of continous swainps and mudholes had enurely worn out our horses, besides which the food tains had not peen able to keep Up with the march.

They are commanded by Garcia still, and are now said to number 300 men, They were remarkably orderly in their behavior at the above hacienda, They took a few horses, something to eat and then rode away. Meanwhile 100 men rode into Tlalpam, a few niles from Mexico, after dark, and drove out the guard, which left for the city. ‘They held the village until a late hour, helping thermselves mainly to eatables, and then disappeared. nh handsomely entertained im beautiful city of the republic, itor the past few days.
