10 ME SPANISH FLOTILLA, Preparations for Depariure—Scenes at the Foot of Thirteenth Street—Pre- cautions Against a Raid—De- seription of the Vessels. The Spanish gunboats are rapidly preparing for sea, and eighteen of them will leave in a snort time for Havana. These have already received nearly their entire outilt, a few hours only being necessary tocomplete them, All lie together in the dock de- tween Thirteenth and Fourteenth s: , with planks extending over their decks, affording a pas- sage above the bulwarks across thirteen of them. ‘The scene at this place yesterday was of tue most animated description, Several of the gunboats had steam up, and a large force of work- men were busily engaged in putting the finishing touches on the vessels, while gangs of Jaborers were hurriedly conveying furniture, parts of rigging, hammocks, coils of hose and other equipment on board. Carts heavily loaded with coal were detached from the horses, hoisted by the derrick out over the gunboats and dumped into the hold, hnd cords of dry pine wood for starting flres were swung over the heads of the spectators and workmen in a siinilar manner, A number of young Spanish oMicers from the Pizarro were all day scramblng over the gunboats to mspect their future quarters, and everything was conducted with a degree of bustle and excitement that brought vividly to mind some of the scenes about the wharves during the late war. The presence of the guf carriages on the vessels gave quite a warlike aspect to affairs, and 1t was not dificult to tmagine the dissatisfaction and uneasiness of the Cubans at the hurrying preparations, A large crowd of spectators was present through- ont the day, attracted by the report that some of we ganboats would go out ona trialtrip. The smoke issuing from the funnels of some of the vessels encouraged this belief; but it seems that fres were only kindled to get the engines in perfect working order preliminary to their departure. Previous triale have satisfied the Spanish officials respecting the gunboats, and it 18 not probable that any ol them will leave the wharves until all of the pict are ready to proceed to Cuba. These {be officered from the Pizarro, which brought thirty-six Oflicers for this purpose. Engineers will be obtained in New York, aud when the gun- boats reach Havana they will receive their guns, ammuniuon, crews and full complement of oiticers. , As soon as the first eighteen shall have been de- spatched, the remaiming twelve will be speedily compieted. It 13 understood that the whole num- ber, thirty in all, were contracted for with Mr. Dela- mater for $300, 000 in gold. ‘The contract for these vessels was signed on the 3d of May last, and on the 19th the tiret Keel was laid. The first gunboat was launched June 23 and the last on September 3, at which ume fifteen of the vessels had received their engines nd boilers. The gunboats ares all constructed after the same pattern, and are models of streugth, compactness and convenience. Their dimensions are 107 feet in length on the water line, 22 feet 6 inches beam, $ leet dept of hold, and 4 feet 11 inches draught of water. The lines are full at the bow in order to aiford space and solidity for the 100-pounder pivot gun, and in piace of the ordinary rail a low, heavy timber bulwark, lined with sheet iron and provided with water ways, has been sabstt- tated. The foremast carries a yard aud square saul. ‘The jib stay 1s dispensed with in order to admit of the gun being fired on a line with the keel, and in Ms stead are two separate stays attached to the bulwarks, ope on each quarter, Under canvas a temporary jib stay is secured to ashackle boited to the outside of the stem. ‘The engines are very powerful for their size, and the twin screws rest in adjustable bearings of a new and peculiar character. ‘Tne coal bankers are ‘located on each side of the boilers, and exteud forward and aft of the centré gf displacement. The magazine is between the engine room and cabin, and in addition to being lined with lead aud covered outside with sheet tron, has tareo different appliances for Nooding in case of fire. The quarters of the crew are forward of the boilers and next to the shel room, which is located under the bow gun. The armory is entered from the cabin, and bas racks for thirty carbines, thirty revolvers and a bumber of cutlasses, natchets, pikes, &c, Arrangements are provided jor carrying 100 rounds for the pivot gun. The cavin 18 handsomely fur- nished, and the gunboats, with their raking masts and wire rigging, look more like pleasure yachts than vessels of war. Two trial tips have been had—one in September to West Point and the other in October. Atthe latter trial the gunboat ran from Fourteenth street to 120th street and return, making the first run of 5.81 statute miles against the tide in thirty-two miuntes thirty-five seconds, and retarn ing in twenty-nine minutes thirty-five secouds—a total of 11.62 miles in sixty-two minutes ten seconds. Captain Kafaei ae Aragon has represented the Spanish government in superintenuing the con- struction of the gunboats. ‘There 1s still considerable apprehension of an at- tempt by Cubans to injure or destroy the guavoat and every precaution is taken to prevent eny su casualty. A large number Of watchmen are kept constantly on duty, and 19 addition the Spanish war steamer, whicn lies with her broadsides bearing on the gunboats, a tug, with a howitzer on board, is employed to cruise during the nigutin the vicinity or the vessels. It 18 impossible for any serious damage to be done to the gunboa however bold the atiempt might be, and there is every probability that all of the ganboats will soon be on duty cruis- ing around the isiand of Cuba, ‘The Cubans seem to have abandoned all hope of preventing the departure of the gunboats and speak despoudently of thew cause, These vessels, they say, Will encircle the revolution as wila an iron hoop, shutting outall assistance and sufing the young repubitc. ‘Theirchief trouble is, however, at the attitude assumed by the Cuited States im re- leasing the gunboats, and they argue that no re- Hance can now be placed upon ay official action velbg taken on thelr behalf, PHYSIOLOGY, Mrs. Walter C. Lyman’s Lecture. Mrs. Walter C, Lyman gave the concluding lecture of the fourth course on the above subject in the lec- ture room of Dr. Chapm’s church yesterday afte r- noon. Subject, “Diseases of Women and Children,’* A Jarge and apprectauve Class of jauies were present. Tue subject was clearly and ably pre- sented and finely illustrated with manikin and ol painungs. The lecturer said:—Tne destiny of wo- Ian was to become wife and mother; that it was the duty of every woman to fit herself both physi- cally and mentally to perform that mission wisely and perfectly. To produce harmony there must be equal development of mind and body. To the neglect of tits harmonious development imay be attributed so much of the lamentable decay of our American families. The early decline of our Wornen grows out of our impertect system of edu- cation, both at bome aud at school. “Thousands of beautiful and accomplishea women die annually Decause they cannot meet the demands of nature and tulfil the holy office of mothernuod, One-fourth of all children born annually die before they ar- rive at the age of one year, and one- haif before reaching the age of ten. The world today groans under ita burden of deformity, insanity, suicide and murder, annot, oF whl nor trace It to its true source, the perverted {deas so widely prevaicnt among our Women in regard to customs and habits of dreas and living. Much of the mental and nervous excite- ment 1s due to,the perverted sensational literature acattered through te whole lengtu and breadth of our land, giving taise views of life and daty. The speaker said mine-tentis of the crimes committed were the result of @ diseased condition ‘of body and mind, For 1,800 years men have striving to evangelize the World, 16 it not tine for Woman to do ber share ju this glorious work, and so hasten the saileunial dawn?

He then pre- sented 8 new petition, made by other parties, claim- ing to be creditors of Benninger & Company, and asked that they and the receiver be restrained from disposing of the property.

H., Hamahan, who under this or- der of the court claimed the property oa behalf of the creditors, and that he had a lien upon the sam Mr. James I’, Morgan, counsel for the recetver, sisted the motion on the ground that the Court had ho right to enjoin or restrain the receiver, or take possession of the property legally vested in his hands for proper disposition until regular notice was served as required by the Bankruptcy act.

John McDonough vs. John MeDonough.—This case has been before the Court in a variety of phases and came up again yesterday before Judge Loew on a motion made by defendant’s attorney:for extension of time to make a case, &c. It appeared that the referee who tried the cause had reported in favor of defendant to the amoung of $844, but had awarded costs against lum. ‘fhe plaintiff thereupon went to the referee and took back all his books and vouch- ers, some thirty in number, which had been used in evidence on the trial, and refused to allow defendant or his counsel to inspect or make coptes therefrom for the purpose of making a case and appealing from the referee’s award.
