Valmaseda—His Personne! and Habite—His Career in the Island—The Charges of Cru- elty Against Him—Their Foundatiou—His Famous Bayamo Order and the Jiguaoci Massacre—The Havana Volunteers to Assist in Sappressing the I rrectionHin State- ments Concerning the Situation. Havana, Dec. 22, 1870, Undenlably a fat man and a tall one, ts the nato- Fal suggesiion on entering the presence of Don Blas ‘Vuiate, Count Valmaseda, Captain General ad inte rim of the Island of Cuba; he who took the field agamst the insurrection upon its first outbreak and hos made aname and fame connected therewith which, whether enviable or otherwise, extends throaghout Christendom. On nearer approach it is observed that he is nearly forty-five years of age, with a clear olive complexion, hazel eyes, black ‘Bair, With mustache and imperial, and heavy, over- banging cheeks, justifying the charge of sensuality ‘so often brought against him. Something of the air @f abon vivant is apparent too, yet there is that @bout the man which indicates a powertul will and great tenacity ef purpose, Educated in France, he has rather the easy, affable manner of the French- man than the staid, formal dignity of the Spaniard. ‘Still he assumes the first place very naturally and 1s evidently accustomed to command. One hesitates to believe in the stories of cruelty told of him while observing his genial, pleasant ways. He had occu- Pied several important positions in the island pre- vious to the insurrection, such as Segundo Qube and Governor of Puerto Principe, and has had the repu- tation of being fond of sports, an attendant on bull and cock fights and addicted to all athletic exer cises, He 1s of great physical strength, a magniti- cenbhorseman, a0 expert swordsman and a dead shot. These things, while making him extremely popular with the masses, have created the impression that be 18 not a man of much intellectual capacity, by no means a student, and that the prominent positions he has occupied resulted rather from acct- dent of birth and the infueuce of friends than from any merits or capabilities of nis owa, I am satis- Med that this is an incorrect view of his character, and that he is @ man of unusual capacity and great ambition, Froim the ime he assumed command of the Spanish troops, soon after the outbreak of Yara, unt! his arrival in Havana to assume the chief dig- nity of the island—now more than two years—he has never leit his work for @ moment, but with all the resources afforded him constantly combated the insurrection, Though a lileiong supporter of the Bourbons, he has, while maintaining a constant reticence in reference to affairs at home— though practically recognizing the new order of ‘Ubings—by his lavors for Spain retained himself in position and been advanced to the highest dig- amity by bis political opponents, With ready foresight, appreciating the power of the Spanish residents here, « who had been formed into armed organizations by Lersundi, he has «dopted such policy as was likely to be most pleasing to them, and has so successfully pursued it as to acquire the most unbounded popu- larity with them, By them the intrigues fer his ad- Vancement have been carried on for more thana year past, during which time he has so conducted himself that no fault could be found with him, even by those whose place and power he desired to usurp. He has accomplished the object of all tus labors; yet, in so doing and in pursuing the policy referred \, he bas acquired the reputation of being the mosc crue] and bloodtiursty commander of the age, the embodiment of atrociyy, and terms indicative of ‘this, such as “assassin,’’ “butcher” and the like, have been unsparingly heaped upon him. His or- dere and the acts tucreunder have been made the Subject of diplomatic correspondence and important state papers; remoustrances have been made in the name of humanity, and so great has been the odium altached to his name that his appointment haa been considered in open defiance of the seutiment of the olvilized world, and has given cheer to the friends of free Cuba by exciting hopes that joreigu interfe- rence in her behalf would result. Whether or no Valmaseda has been aware of this heretofore I know not. He certainly appreciates it mow, deprecating 1t and earnestly denying that he has ‘been subject (o the charge of crucity justiy. ‘Since nis arrival in Havana he has several times re- Jerred to this in conversation with those whose minds he would naturaily wish to disabuse of such ideas. The principa: grounds for charging him with cruelty are two in umber, ana, unferiunately for himself and defenders, they are very clear and weil understood. The tirst of these 1s iis famous erder, ated at Bayamo, April 4, 1s6¥, the text of Which 13 as follow INMABITANTS OF THE CoUNTRY: ‘The torces which I expecied have arrived.

Count VALMASEDA, Under this decree the most unbeard of atrocities were perpetrated. I can give you no vetter idea of them than by quoting froin an account which ap- peared in the HERALD under date of September 29, 4864, 48 foliows: A foreigner resident near Bayamo since the commence- ment of Lie struggic, wie acknowledging that be was per. sonaliy well treated ‘by Vaimaseda, states that bis horrible prociamation was literally carried out, The day following ite promulgation, anc before it became known to the people, a ogy of one hundred troops was sent out.

OvrioKB—Shoot bir | On approaching those houses where the men were absent the women were called together and the fact ef absence Veing ascertained every house was immediately burned to the ground and the inmates, old men, wemen, little ones ‘apd children m arms, oraered to proceed to Bayamo or Jig- ani, ofttimes many’ miles distant, with no provision for {ood and shelter on the way. From these dreary cavalcades many laid down by the wayside and died, and others were met by insurgent gangs whe maltreated them for endeavor. mg to reach the Spasieh linea. Of the horrible outrages rpetraied on the defenceless wemen, they may be imagined, Bot'descrived.* * * So borrivle was tis carnival of blood that the soldiers finally refused to go out, exclaiming, *We are sick of brains and blood,” Such were the results of this order, and he who a nn it Was in immediate command of the roups. Jn bis response to this preclamation the Cuvan General Donato dei Marmol, in ap address to bis fellow citizens, said :— ‘The Spanish Genersi Vaimaseda issued a proclamation on the 4tb Suet. to the ipbabitants of the countiy, the object of which 8 10 authorize arson, murder and disregard ot pro- perty, and to eanction ail tbe horrc wilbout conscience or religion, are o 8 + While the the volunteers, hateful Of a thundering Jupiter of modern tmes, murder wo- ehfidren and oid ;, barn bouses, rob, violate the 4, Kill the child belore its father, horrors tbat the most barbarous feroekly would suudder The second ground for charging Count Valmaseda With cruelty is thé assassination of the Jiguani pris- oberg, Whicu will be recouected as ene of those Coid- Diooded massacres Which, fertunaiely for humanity, occur sekiom im the centuries, una which demon: strates thal man, with all his boasted civilizauen, easily relapses into the savage. The details of the aialr are Woo iresh in the minds ef your readers to need recapiidiavon, aud I will only weution the main iucidents. Lurmg the month of July, 1869, a number of the more prominent Qubah residents of Sandago de Cuba, having been arrested on the denunctations a spy, Were sent to Valmaseda at Bayamo. In- vestigation at Sanuago had falied toshow any evi- pee of their complietty with the insurrection. On their arrival at Bayamo they were placed in close confinement, together with some Cuban pris- one Irom Napzauuio, On ihe wd of august were Valmaseas that he Someta Fee heats ven Cuban ‘en, and they were placed under the eaoort of el Palacios, who was the of the accusation against the Santlago prisoners, Fy fy uhe orning of the 3d, and at three . M. the escort of about fifty men fell upon them, ot them all, both prisoners and friends, mangling ir bodies with their bayonets after rifing ther kets of $1,500 in money and jewelry. These ts, as thus stated, were oMicially re) to the United States government, together with the protest Of the Santiago prisoners, against being sent away from their homes toa small obscure town, hetd b; treops, for trial. The statement made by Colone Palacios was that his prisoners revolted on the road, attempted to escape, and to save himself and men, as well as prisoners, he had to oot them, As report says, ‘this satisfied Valmaseda, and things connected with at show that it. was premeditated even defore the arrest of the vafortu- nate Cubans ae med Te me els tums were we gentlemen of Bay: property. like that of the others, was couflscated by he officals, who are believed to have connived at their death. A servant of one of them, an innocen' harmiess person, was also shot down. in despite the efforts to conceal this most atrocious deed the truth leaked out at once, and 80 great was the ont. cry made that Palacios was ape ‘under arrest and ordered © Mavana, whence he sailed for Spain seon after to rt bimseif to the supreme government for trial. Nothing more was heard of it, and #0 the Spanish government, by its silence, assumed the re- sponalbtitty of the deed, and the world still believes a the work of Valmaseda, now Captain General of pa. In the administration of affairs here he continues the politic course which has made him so papular ‘with the Spanish residents, and ts selecting his ad- visers and officials from = those who are in entire sympathy with the Casino Espafiol. Though in his proclamations and addresses to the vol- unteers he affects to treat the insurrection lightly, tn private be freely admits the difficulty of its sup- pression, and that it is the work of long time. He will, if pracucable, send some of the Havana volun- teers to aid in the Work, and to this end recently called a meeting of the crags whom he stated that the insurrection was nearly vanquished, and that it only ueeded one strong blow to destroy what was left. He stated that he shoula go te the inte rior himself and asked for their co-operation, to which they responded, offering in the name o/ all the volunteers to follow wherever he would lead them. One of the journals here recently stated that trom credible sources it had icarned that the volanteers of this city are to garrison some of the more impor. tant towns of the island—the object being to relieve the troops there, that they may be sent to the fleld. Efforts will be made to mobilize a battalion or more, to be sent to the Held. But the horrible stories of suffering and neglect of their wants told by those who have returned will make this very dimicult. The Count is drawing the reins of military disei- pline cleser, and the officers and soidicrs who have been accustomed to wander about the city at will, frequenting places of public resort, are now required to show their license for #o doing. In closing this account of the present distinguished head «f tne island, in which I charge nothing, but give the facts as they were at the time reported, I May mention that be 1s an intelligent student of the situation of affairs in his own country and in Hurope—his rooms containing many maps of the present seat of war, to which his attention often torns, and that from his character and abilities, as they seem to me, he is calculated to take @ prominent part in the uncertain future of this councry, The French Man-of-War Talisman—Her In- tentions in Cuban Waters—German Vessels Uomolested—Letter from the German Con- sul—Destruction of Estates—Rumored Cap- ture of Aguilera—Arrest of an American Physician—More Blood Crops—Rumored Landing of Jordan. Ravana, Dec. 23, 1870. The statement recently sorwarded from here to some of the New York journals, to the effect that the French man-of-war Talisman is cruising in these Waters tn wait for German steamers, has called out from the Diario a denial of this, as these steamers en- ter and leave the harbor with perfect frecdom and without being molested at ail atsea. In concluding its article the Journai mentioned says 1t has good authority for saying that the object of the Talisman is simply to protect French commerce against the Prussian gunboat Meteor, still lying in Havana harbor. Thereupon, in a succeeding issue of the Voz de Cuba, appears a letter from Luis Will, Consul of the North German Con- federation, stating that King William had decreed that the private property of the enemy on the sea should be respected, and that this had been strictly complied with, notwithstanding the frequent attacks of the French on German vessels, He affirms that the commander of the Meteor is aware of the decree, it having passed through the hands of the Consul himself. He further adds that the Meteor has not been reduced to inaction by the simple presence of the Talisman in these waters, but that she will go to sea as soon as the repairs upon ner are finished. Your correspondent can safely add that the Meteor will probably go to the bottom or change her nationality, as the Talisman is a much larger and more formidable vessel. His Excellency Count Valmaseda is demonstratin; the old saying that ‘a new broom sweeps clean,’ and is infusing much energy into the operations for putting down the insurrection. He 1s hurrying orf the convalescents and shirkers—of which last there seems not a few—to the front, leaving the volunteers to do guard duty. During the past week there have arrived here the steamers Antonio Lopez, with 500 men, and Guipuzcoa with 1,037, ai) of which have been armed aud sent to the fleld. Information kas been received here from Santiago de Cuba and Guantanamo that the insurgents are burning estates in that vicinity and have succeeded in destroying @ considerable number. The official Teport of the commanding general of the eastern de- partment states that on the 3d and 4th, in the district of Ti-arriba, they attacked the estate Sauta Afla de Guifian, destroying the houses and machinery and _ burning the houses on the coffee plantations Candelavia and Recourfrusa and on the estate San Alejandre, The Fanal, of Puerto Principe, mentions having seen a suppiement to the Ls gl Cuba Libre, published by ‘the insurgents, which calis upon José Lino, Fer- nandez Goca, Francisco Socarras Wilson and Juan N. Boza to present themselves within three months to answer the charge o: desertion. Immense numbers of women and children are Pe into Puerto Principe from the msurgent ines, the result of the destruction of crops and honses by the troops. Following the arrival efthe Spanish mali steamer Porto Rico, it was rumored that Francisco Aguilera, Cuban Secretary of State, had been captured, having been driven on to the island of Porto Rico in his attempt to escape from this island. The papers stated thatthe report was brought by the ‘ast pas- senger’’ which had come on board the steamer, but it is too manifestly absurd fer belief, The death of Policurpo Rustaw (colored) in the Cuban army, from wounds receive cent attack on Mayari, is reported. In the Cinco Villas the Chief Jose Cayetano San- tos has been captured, taken to Cierfue, tried and shot, as 1s the manner of Spaniards Great fears of the destruction of esigtes in the Cluco Villas are entertained, and troops are being ser.t thereto from Havana. Dr. Howard, an American physician, residing and Practicing in Cienfuegos, has been imprisoned in consequence of the tindtag of a medicine box in an insurgent camp marked with his name. He states that the box and its contents were such as origi- nally sold by him more than two years ago, and that he knows nothing ofit. The mater is in the hands of the American Consul General here, Mr. Biddle, who has brought the matter before Valma- seda and received from him promise of immediate attention thereto, Dr. Howard 1s related by mar- riage to German Barrios, recently shot in that city. Commercial letters from Cienfuegos say that ali the estates in that jurisdiction are grinding, but the crop will not be as great as in former years, owing to the want of hands and unfavorable weather. Large numbers of insurgents are making their ap- pearance in Santi Espiritu, influenced, as is. sup- Dore, by the large supply of cattle in that jurisdic- exon. As I close this letter I learn a report 18 current that Jordan has safely landed near Mayari. a general in tne re- Attack on an Insurgent Camp—Evidence of the Laborante’s Work—Suicide of a Cuban in Prison. TRINIDAD, Dec. 14, 1870, On the night of the 12th a man named Juan Rod- riguez presented himself to the troops outside of this city, stating that he belonged to the insurgent band commanded by the mulatto, José Maria Torra- do, from whose encampment, situated two leagues from the city, he had been able to escape. Guided by him @ force was immediately sent out to attack the encampment, which was situa- ted in the mountams known as Rincon de la Luna. The insurgerts were found ready to move atamomenv’s notice, having doubtless been ren- dered suspicious by the absence of Rodriguez. The troops came upon an advance guard, who gave the alarm, and on reaching the encampment found no one. A man named José Leonardo Ortega was taken prisoner anu shot, There were found in the camp some provisions and other supplies, which indicated that the laborantes in this city and Cusilda are in communication with the insurgents cell with a sheet Don Juan de Dios Turimo, imprisoned for disloyalty im furnishing supplies to the Cubaos ip arias.

Canvaseer for Defranding the Mer- i chants of the Oity—Highway Rob- bery—Crime Calendar of 1870. “1 would almost stake my Jife 1t was him.” ‘This assertion was made in the Police Court at the Tombs yesterday morning by 8 gentleman con- nected with the Oceanic Steam Navigation Company, and referred to the wholesale swindling which, for the last three months, has been perpetrated upon the merchants tn this city by a young man named George Hughes, George, it appears, has been for a long period employed by Mr. Goulding, a pubitsher doing busines9 at 132 Nassau street, About three mouths ago Goulding ascertained that in canvassing for advertisements for his (Goulding’s) directory and other books, Gegrge had been making a heavy purse for himself, It was the defendant’s duty TO CALL UPON MERCHANTS and others in New York to solicit advertisements for various publications, and, on receiving an order was required to receive the money for it, giving each contributor a receipt for whatever they had paid. But his employer found that Hughes was not either honest er truthful, George would get bogus receipts without counterparts, and, instead of giving the receipts of the frm, he would give the others ana pocket the money. In some cases he passed these advertisements inte the books for which they were intended, but in a great many cases he did not get them in. The consequence was that the parties applied for an explanation from the firm as to tbe cause of their notices being omitted, ana hence the expos¢, On the 224 of October, 1870, Mr. Goulding in- formed George that he had learned from several sources of his roguery, but if he would leave the city the firm would not prosecute him: also on the condition that he should give a list of the firms from whom he had received money. The defendant agreed to this arrangement, and ‘oe ig day wrote @ letter to the complainant, in whicl HE ACKNOWLEDGED THE SWINDLING he had been carrying on; thanked Mr. Goulding for the Kindness and leniency with which he had viewed the matter, and gave a list of some twenty firms from whom he had received moneys, amount- ing in the aggregate to a considerable sum. Instead of ieaving the city, as he had promised, Hughes instituted ‘a system of swindling which, to say the least, had the greatest plausibility upon its face. He obtained a number of false receipts, and, knowing that Goulding would issue @ book at a certain time, and availing himseif of the connection hejhad formed while in the latter’s employ, went round to the va rious merchants and shipping and msurance offices where le Was Kuown soliciting advertisements, As the book was not to appear for a considerable time he had ampte oppertunity for making a great many calls before it could possibly be discovered that he was defrauding all these | ons apes as no question could arise unui the book was puolished.. Two pays ago, however, he was caught, though then only by an accident. Calling at the ofice of the Oceante Steam Navigation Copany, he at once received an advertisement and the money to pay for it. No sooner bad he gone from the office than Mr. Osborn ascertained {rom an employe in the service of the company that a similar advertisement had been sent to Mr. Goulding’s office and paid for, for which a totally DIFFERENT RECEIPT WAS PRODUCED, On arriving at the publisher's office, Mr. Osborn deseribed the man so minutely that Mr. Goulding at once recognized his former canvasser, Hughes. Mr. Osborn wrote to @ moruing paper and detailed the appearauce of the man, and as soon as this ap- peared a great number of merchants wrote to the publisher, stating they had also been victimized by @ man answering exactly to that description. See- ey Hughes jn a lager saloon in Beekman street on Friday night, he obtained a warrant and had him arrested. Hughes begged to be let off, promising again to pay whatever moneys hie had collected; but ashe had kept his former promise “so well,” the complainant could not see the force of his pleading. He was held In $3,000 ball to answer. A CABE OF HIGHWAY ROBBERY. William Anderson, a gay-looking individual, who is now held in the House of Detention, made an affti- davit tothe ’court, charging a repulsive, squinting man, named James Gaertn, of 2955 Cherry street, wita having knocked him down in the public high- way and stealing from his person money to the amount of sixty dollars. Wilham did not gay that he was sober on Friday evening, when the robbery took place, but the inference is that if he had een 80 it Would have been dii- cult for the prisoner to have accomplished such a feat vy himself. When arrested the prisoner was greatly coniused, and had in his possession some of the property, including, a knife, keys, &c., all of which he had taken from 4 pocket in com. plainant’s pantaloons. The Judge said that this was a most unfortunate affair for the complainant, inasmuch as he had lost nearly ali the money he had; on the other hand he looked upon the prisoner as a hard, cowardly char- acter, and would not take less than $3,000 ball, As Gaerin could not produce such an amount he was led to a cell untii the City Judge should cail for him to give an account of himself.

The daily papers have contained accounts of the de- mise of this eminent divine. This melancholy event eccurred im the city of Philadelphia on Saturday afternoon, December 24. He was aged seventy-two years. He had walked a considerable distance, ac- companied by his aaughter, on a visit of condolence to a bereaved family, and had hardly taken his seat in the house when he suddenly complained of a difficulty in breathing, threw hts head back, and soon expired, apparently without any pain. It is supposed that his death was caused by heart dis- ease. Mr. Barnes was @ native of Rome, N. Y., born De- cember 1, 1798, graduated at Hamilton College in 1820, and at Princeton Seminary in 1824. He was ordained pastor of the Presbyterian church at Mor- ristown, N. J., in February, 1825, when he began his great life-work of preparing Scripture commentaries for the ald of Sunday schools. In 1830 he was called to the First church of Philadelphia, where he spent the remainder of his diligent and nonerable lite, only giving over the responsible charge of the church to a colleague two years ago, The first ten years of his service in Philadelphia was a time of general revival in religion, into which he entered with his whole soul. In analyzing the methods of prevennine Divine truth most favorable to revivals he adopted views of theology decidedly in harmeny with those prevaling im New England, which were objected to by the more rigid Presby- terians, who, under the lead of Dr. Junkin, com- menced a prosecution against him for heresy ad- vanced in his book on Atonement. The case was carried by Fs et from the Presbytery to the Synod of Philadelphia, and thence to the General Assembly, then meeung ut Pitts- burg. Here the sentence of suspension was re- versed, and he returned to nis work, after an en- forced silence of a whole year, which ne nad en- dured with great patience tor the sake of Church order. This prosecution had much to do with the division of the Presbyterian Church, and it was a high satisfaction to Mr. Barnes that he lived to take part in the reunion, and to be welcomed to the fel- Jowship of those from whom he had beer causelessh separated for above thirty years, without any huml- ating concessions or changes on either part. In addiiion to his ‘‘Comimentaries” and several ‘mportant religious works he wrote much for periodicals, the Rev. Albert Religious Notes—General and Personal.

Bowen as editor publisher and proprietor of tne Indep: ndent, A story is reported that the Italian government is disposed to give the old Roman Pantheon, now called the Church of the Holy Mary and the Martyrs, to the Protestants for ther worship. The old legend of this church is that Pope Boniface IV. received from the Emperor Phocas permission (the Pope was then subject to the Emperor) to transform the Pan theon into a church, but that the Roman people refused to enter it. To conquer their repugnance be had two hundred wagonfuls of the bones of martyrs carried into the basillica and worked into its pavement, which he then dedicated tothe Virgin. Bishop Bedell, of Ohio, warned his clergy not to unite with other denominatiens In union services on ‘Thanksgiving day, and we suppose the same wil hold good for Christmas, He said:—“Our Church has appointed a special service to be used on Thanksgiving day. It is the duty of the clergy to employ that service, and no other; and should any clergyman be absent from his post on that day 1t 18 the privilege of the peopie to mectin their own church without him, appoioling a jay reader for the time.” Since 1846 the Presbyterian churches in New York have increased from 26, with 10,474 members, to 41, with 15,869 members, Durmg this time 17 churches have died out or beep amalgaimated with others. Of these last 7 were ‘‘frec”’ churches.

Besides this, the same CHARMING, ENSNARING, MONEY-HUNTING YOUNG LADIES are dispersed throughout the building, and by the din of their united appeals of “Do take a chance,” ‘ou won't miss it,” &¢., give the fairan exciting and interesing aspect.
