Miss Behwab proceeded to say that the prisoner was jer first’ cousin, that. he wauted to marry her, and while in the parlor, sitting on a lounge he accom- plished his desires, saying, “YLL MARRY YOU ANYHOW.” The prisoner induced her little brother to leave the room by giviug him fire crackers, and Miss Schwab afirmed that she would not have ytelded if he had not. promised. to marry her.

CABALLERO DE RODAS. AYAMA, Nov. 22, 1870, As I write three celebrations are in progress, aad the “truly loyal” of Spain seem to be affected fa- yorably, It is, however, a3 yet too soon te judye of the effect of the election upon the Spaniards in this island, They are almost, without exception, mon- archists, and will, no doubt, happily receive news of @ny solution of tne long existing diMficully, though the great mass of them have been supporte of Prince Alfonso or the Duke de Montpensier, Occa- sional sly allusions are heard to the “Maccaront King,” which shows, nevertheless, that the proud and intensely patriotic Spaniard doesn’t like the idea of going away from home to find a ruler. ‘The journals, a8 @ matter of course, accept the situation, but treat the election rather gingerly. ‘The Diario de la Marina, in making the announce ment, sayst-- _ On the Léth of Novemper, 1870, the laborious work of finding aking to sit on the threne of San Fer. nando and Caries V. was concluded. This bigh hener has failen to Amadeo fernando Maria, Prince of the anelent House of Sivoy, named and pro- claimed king by the Constituent Cortes, We salute respectfully the choice of the national representa: tion, the new King of Spain, and only beg Heaven to crown the choice in the happiness of the nation, The Voz de Cuba, after certain allusions to the his- tory of Spain, in which, not unnaturally, it finds a parallel case, says:— ‘To-day we celebrate a like mstance. The tele- graphic news which we gave yesterday, taken from the New Orleans jonrnals, of the proclamation a3 King of Aer of Amadeo de Saboya, is confirmed by oMcial announcement. The Spaniards oi this province, who, attending to other duties, have not taken part in Unis electiun, are nevertheless obliged to respect ap@ obey the new monarch.

Although no announcement of the fact appeared in the journals this mi Ding. it is generally under. stood that oficial information has been received of the capture and shooting of Generals Bernabe de Torona, known as “Beimbeta” and Cavada, promi- nent insurgent leaders. Ad of all pews received here the “oficial is least reliable, It needs to ve contirmed before acce| til as true, AB Nas Veen Tor some tine anticipated, the insur- gents have commenced burning estates in the Chico Villas, and grave fears are eniertained that the destruction 18 likely to become Private letters state that three estates in Clenfuegos have been de. atroyed.

Frem a private letter received from Havana we have particolars of the movements of Colonel Adolfo Varona, whose execation by Spanish gueriilas ‘was briefy noticed by telegraph. Colonel Varona left this port on the 4th of October last by the steamer Virgin, bound for Quracoa, in company with General Quesada, having previously arrived with him in this efty from Cuba. On arrival at that place Varona was commissloned w take despatches of the highest importance to the provi- sional government In Cuba. For the purpose of dis- guising himself a small Kloop was chartered to con- vey him to the coast of Cuba, waich he reached after am uneventful voyage. Dressed asa simple peasant, he made bir way througk the Spanish lines mounted on a horse hé pufchased thé day after his arrival, and when challenged as to who he was showed a@ passport which he had obiamed froma fisherman for fifty dollars and the pro- mise ef returning it within fourteen days, On the fourth day of his travels, whtle visiting In a Ugt situated on a sugar plantation 19 the farisdiction ef Manzanillo, he was set updn by several of the hands who had seen his Passport and knew the man whom he represented himself tobe. They forthwith called im some Span- ish guerillue, who, having tite statement of the men, shot Varona «lead on the spot. The despatches he carried, which were fonnd secr in the lining of hus coal, were seized apa forwarded ut once to the Captain General, De Rodas, at Havana, in whose hands they are at the present foment, Adolfg Vatona was born in 1830 at Puerto Principe, of Wealthy and respectabie parents. In his eigh- teenth year he went to study medicine at Paris, and aiter walking the hospital) Maison Dieu, where ne acquired a thorough knowledge of chemical sur- ery, graduated as an M.D. In addition to this he distinguished himself as a linguist, speaking and writing several languages with elegance. At the commencement of the revolution in Cuba he of- fered his services to who accepted him ratefully, and they afterwards became firm friends, in the army he performed the double functions of colonel and surgeon, and showed great courage and a i in both departments. On hik recent arri- Val in Cuba he addressed q letter to 4 friend at New York, commencing, ‘I Write this in Cuba Libre.” ‘This letter was hafded to the captain of the sloop, with instructions to post at Jamaica, and in due course has reached here. Many erroneous reports have been spread in Cuba and ths city ag ve the identity of Varona. ‘The telegram gave his name as Bambetta, put subeequeutly corrected it, and the Diario de ia Ma- rina, of Havana, states the name a8 A, Varena.

The Camden (New Jersey) Election Riots, Special Session of the United States Districd Court at Trenton—Judge Nixon’s Charge tothe Grand Jury—Brutal Treat- ment of a Colored Witness, In the United States District Court, at Trenton, Ne J., yesterday, the Grand Jury were summoned for the purpose of imvestigating the violations of the election laws at the late elections, Juage Nixon, in charging the Grand Jury, said that the act of Juno 8, 1846, makes it the duty of the District Court of the United States to summon and empanel a Grand Jury whenever, in the judgment’ of the Court, it 18 proper that an inquiry shail be had into any alleged viola- ton of the laws of the national government within the State of New Jersey, ‘The District Attorney bad Advised niin of the VIOLATION OF TWO Laws Passed by the late Congress, and it was to these vio~ lutions he would direct the special atteution of the Grand Jury. Congress found its authority for their enactment in the fourth section of the first article of the Con- stitution of the United States, which provides that “the times, places and manner of holding elecuous for Senators and Kepresentatives shail be prescribed in each State by the Legislature thereof, but the Congress may at any time by law make or alter such regulations, except as to the place of choosing Scn- ators." After pointing out the evils winch calted for the Passage of these laws and explaining minutely the terms of the statutes, with the penalties aMxed, the Judge summed up in the following words:—The evils which this legislation was intended to reach and cure are manifold and prevalent, For years past the true men of al partios have Known and deplored tue existence of frauds in naturalization, in registry and at the ballot box. Ido net say and I do not believe that these frauds are con mitted by any one political party, but they are the work of the corrupt men of aif parties, and their suppression will require the cordial ce-operation of the good men of These evils, I fear, are growing. in our mt ud if courts and juries are not faithful and rigid in the investiga. tion of such offences and in the punishment of known offenders they wil} continue to abound and multiply and grow uhtil they POISON ALL THR SPRINGS of our national tife, and render our boasted liberties hardly Kecaxk pecneerine, itis @ matier of public notoriety that at one of the election precincts of the county of Camden, on the day of the last election for members of Congress, @ scene of violence and bloodshed was enacted, more vated tn iis character than, perhaps, has ever before taken place within the jurisdiction of this court. Men, in. the peaceable exercise of the dearest rights of free- men, were FORCIBLY DRIVEN FROM THE POLLS; their lives greatly imperilied, if not lost, and their bodies bruised and mutilated with deadly weapons. The ballot box, in which hundreds of votes had been deposited, was taken from the hands of the omicers of the law, thrown isto the street, broken tm pcos, and thebaliots scattered to the winds, It wags protect the henest citizens of all parties alike against such fraud and violence that the aet of May 30, 1870, was passed. , ‘The Judge ‘concluded with & few observations on the important and responsible position which the Grand Jury occupied, atter which that body reured: to pursue’ their investigations. Among. the wit- nesses are fifteen or sixteen colored men belouging to Camden. One of them, Lorenzo Wilson, it wih be remembered, was SHOT AND SEVERELY WOUNDED on election day. He is scarcely able to move about, ana notwithstanding his feebie condition a desperate and most unwarrantable assault was made on bin on Monday by. Constable Souders, who is under he: bail to appear for trial as ringleader in the electio! riot, It appears that numerous threats have been made against Wilson to deter him from appearing as a witness on the trials. While he was walking, in company with his wife, through one oi the suburbs of Camden on Monday the constable al luded to laid hold of him, stating that he had @ walrant for his arrest on the ch * of assault and battery. On the way to the Magistrate's office the constable stambled, where- upon he charged Wilsen with pushing him.
