Egypt, to have a guard on his conduct. If he con@ucts “himself improperly the world will eee it; and Rumor, with her thousand tongues, is liable to be severe and even unjust. All the more need, therefore, for caution and watohfulness. We had seen reports touching Mr. Butler's conduct and character in the Levant Herald and in some New York papers. We were slow to believe that the reports were trae, and, consequently, for a time, paid no heed to them, But we have faith in our Cairo correspondent; we know that he has access to the best sources of information, and it is not bis habit to report to us without sifting “injurious” or other “rumors,” His letter must, therefore, stand as it is. Mr. Butler ‘must not be too thin-skinned about the press. He knows how it is himself. If he takes the hints we have kindly given it may wrn out all for hia good. Tae Commirrgz or SEvENTY are largely interested in the welfare of the city. If the public works are stopped real estate will de- terigrate thirty per cent. Will the members of the committee advance the money to pre- vent this calamity and to carry on the govern- ment? ‘The Destructive Fires in tho Weeds and Prairies of the West—A Question of Life er Death. “Destructive fires for months past have laid waste vast amounts of property in the new States and Territories of the West, from Lakes Superior and Michigan to the Pacific ‘coast, and extensive conflagrations are still raging in the woods and prairies of Wisconsin and Minnesota. A despatch from Smith Lake, Min- nesota, informs us that in that neighborhood the grass is all burned off the prairie and the ground is black and still smoking ; that houses, baros and outbuildings have been burned like tinder; that in many instances the farmers have barely escaped with their lives after wainly fighting the fire till exhausted; that the air is filled with smoke and cinders from the burning timber, and that near Green Bay, Wisconsin, one hundred families are reported as burned out of house and home, and that in that region the fires are now raging over three thousand equare miles of territory, consuming in their track villages, farm houses, farm puildings of all kinds, bridges, telegraph lines and everything combustible in their course ; and that while this work of ruinis going on fear and excitement on all sides prevail, no one ‘daring to say when these fearfal fires will end, Through all the summer, from week to week, we have had to record heavy losses to the inhabitants of this district, that district or the other from these forest fires, from New York and the Canadas out to Oregon and Cali- fornla, On the northern side of the great fakes thousands of square miles of forest Jands, involving the burning out of numerous settlers, have been laid waste; millions of the finest forest trees in the world have been destroyed in Washington Territory and in the States of Oregon and California, and even in ‘the State of Nevada and in Colorado, Wyoming ‘nd Utah Territories, where the timber is limited to narrow patches here and there on the mountain sides. The causes of these fires ‘are, first, this year, a dry season, approaching ® general drought over the belt of the Conti- nent indicated; the combustible character of the forests consumed, consisting mainly of ‘pines and spruce, whose leaves, in a ‘‘heated term,” in their greenest state, bura like dry shavings, sparks from railway locomotives ; the negligence of settlers, emigrants and ‘hunters in regard to their fires, and in the fall the combustible nature of the dry grass of the prairies, The immediate consequences of these Westractive fires involve the financial ruin of thousands of industrious people, the inevita- death of many from exposure, dizease and it, and a general depression of the com- ‘munities afflicted by these visitations in all their business affairs and social relations. The ultimate consequences of these annual fires of the summer and autumn,-if not arrested, will in a few years involve in the destruction of their timber, damages and losses to the States and Territories concerned which may never be repaired. Over all these regions of the great ‘West the great drawback is the general ce of timber, and all timberless countries re rainiess or subject to drought and famine. From Minnesota eastward, on ‘both sides of the great lakes, we have & region of splendid and extensive forests; Hut it needs no meteorologist to inform the people of this district of the great lakes that their annual rainfall diminishes with the clearing away of their timber, and that their diving wells and streams are gradually drying ‘up as the country is laid bare to the suo, The simple truth is that the States and Terri- tories of the West, whose great want is Mmber, must save what they have and plant ‘more trees, instead of destroying what they have, if they would escape the danger from year to year of dronght and famine. Minne- sota and Wisconsin, we doubt not, if com- pletely stripped of their forests, would be as rainlesa as the timberless plains of Dakota. It fs in this view that Congress and the Legis- Jatures of the States and Territories con- cerned cannot too soon direct their attention rather to the enlargement than the destruction of their groves and forests; for even to the rising generation of their people this thing may become a question of life or death. Kevrser has made restitution of $600,000 to the olty treasury. The Attorney General of the State is to be asked to prosecute other dishonest contractors. This is good; but in the meantime the city laborers need their pay and the wheels of the city government are blocked for want of funds. Will the Com- mittee of Seventy advance the necessary amount ? Mr. Twexp says, in regard to Comptroller Green's exhibit of the financial condition of the Department of Public Works, that there is & discrepancy between his own statement and the Comptroller's, and that there shall be no stoppage of work on the great public improvements now in progress. If there isa discrepancy in Mr. Tweed’s favor between the actual condition of the finances of the Department of Public Works and the Comptroller's statement it is to be hoped that it amounts to enough not only to keep the works going but to relieve Mr, Tweed, to some extent, of the oharges of immense extrava- gence and o— of the public, NEW YORK HERALD, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 7, 1871. Keyser’s Confession and Atonement. The most promising feature of the investi- gations of the Committee of Seventy bing presented yesterday, when, Mr. John Keyser, the plumber, whose bills for a i ordinary amount of plumbing and gas fitting in the New Court House and upon other city establishments amounted in the three years of 1869, 1870 and 1871 to $2,381,692, according to the vouchers in the Comptroller's office, as- signed certain property of his own, amounting to $650,000, to Jackeon S. Schultz, one of the committee, in payment of his indebtedness, and promised to surrender the rest if an in- vestigation showed that it was needed to settle the city and county accounts against him. He admitted in a confession to Mr. Schultz that in the seven years of his employment by the city he had received three-quarters of a million dollars, for which he had done little work, but declared that his signature to many of the vouchers for exorbitant sums had been forged, and in many instances he had been compelled to assign his claims before he could receive payment. In virtue of this confession the Committee of Seventy guaranteed Mr. Keyser immunity from prosecution, and expect to obtain from him data that may lead to even more impor- tant discoveries of criminal complicity in the city frauds, While Mr. Keyser, by thus acknowledging his shoricomings, is relieved from prosecution, the committee has announced its determination to prosecute to the bitter end certain other in- dividuals against whom it claims to have full proof of frauds committed upon the city purse. To this end it has appointed a aub- committee to wait upon the Governor and ask that the Attorney General be instructed at once to enter suits against certain persons whom they propose to designate. The refer- ence of the matter to the Governor is doubt- less another piece of the political claptrap that hauled up the Mayor before a police court, the committee hoping thereby to involve Governor Hoffman in the city muddle and cast an indirect slur upon the honesty or ability of District Attorney Garvin, upon whom the duty of such prosecution rightly falls. But all these petty side issues may be fully pardoned if the com- mittee succeed in unearthing and bringing to an account the actual thieves, and does not, through a mistaken sentiment of generosity, condone the offences of these rascals when, on being brought to bay, they own up and make partial restitution. The cases of both Keyser and Connolly show that the good-na- tured commiitee is already veering to the side of too much generosity, and since Mr. Keyser has voluntarily chosen to surrender part of hia ill-gotten gains Tweed, Connolly, Garvey, Ingersoll and the rest of the contractors must be made likewise to disgorge. Deputy GREEN has beeg promised all the money he needs to carry on the city govern- ment and prosecute the public works, The government is now nearly at a standstill for want of funds. Willthe Committee of Seventy redeem their pledge and advance Deputy Green one hundred thousand dollars each— a small amount to them—to redeem the city from bankruptcy? The Southern Cyclone and the Rumored Tidal Wave. The Southern cyclone, whose advance has for some days been reported, has not yet abated and is slowly moving northward. The HERALD took occasion last week to show that the rumor of a tidal wave, to burst on the Carolina coast on the 6th and 6th of this month, had no foundation; but if any ground of alarm existed it was from some of the numerous cyclones, or attending storm waves, which, at this equinoctial season, emerge from the West Indies, Itistrue that occasionally some almanac maker or pseudo prophet makes “g lucky hit” in his weather guesses, as was instanced in 1838, by the famous Murphy, of London, who, by naming the 16th of January as the day of “the great frost,” was almost deified by the people and realized seven thou- sand pounds from his almanac. But if the date of the now raging cyclone reaching the Carolina coast isthe 6th instant, the same date indicated for the rumored tidal inunda- tion, the latter prophecy can have no claim to accuracy. The present cyclone was suspected on the 30th of September to be moving west- wardly several hundred miles south of Key West; its arrival at Galveston by s northwest- erly and parabolic deflection was announced a day in advance by signal and telegram, and for forty-eight hours ahead its track has been foreseen and telegraphed from the signal office. In its passage from the Gulf across northern Florida and Georgia its velocity on Thureday was checked, in the usual proportion of one- half or one-third, when passing from sea to land; but as it approached the Atlantic, the supply of water to feed it increasing, ite vio- lence has increased. We shall, doubtless, have to record in a few hours telegraphic accounts of the havoc and loss of life it has made, Vessels leaving New York to-day will, no doubt, encounter this storm in one of its quadrants when some hours off Sandy Hook, and it is probable European bound steamers may run into or overtake it to their peril, as did the steamship of one of our popu- lar lines last year at this very season. As Mr. Redfield long ago suggested to sea- men, ‘By awaiting the arrival of a storm and promptly putting to sea with its closing winds @ good offing and rapid progress will be secured.” It is a great comfort to all classes of citizens to know that if we cannot arrest the elements and bind them over to keep the peace, we bave at least in our storm warners at Washington what Sir David Brewster called ‘‘an efficient police to detect their ambush and watch their movements,” Tur Porte or New Yorxk are willing to spend money liberally on their public works, for the embellishment, improvement and enrich- ment of their city, provided it is honestly expended. They desire to put a stop to steal- ing, not to abandon enterprise, Will Deputy Comptroller Green remember this fact ?

The following special telegrams have been received from the HEgRatp correspondent in the Mexican capital and Matamoros :— Mextoo Crry, Sept. 21, Via Matamoros, Sept. 21, 1871. Juarez was installed last night amid great excitement, There was no revolutionary row on the oc- casion. A revolutionary agitation was commenced in some of the provinces, however. The offi- cial advices state that it was attended with considerable disturbance and great opposition to the existing order of affairs. Despatches have been received which announce that a pronunciamento against the government has been made by Pedro Martinez near Galliano, in the district of Tunalon, and another in Casalea. Generals Marquis, Porro and Escupero, with Colonels Rojas and Dulli, have pro- nounced in opposition to Juarez in Sinoloa. The first named (Marquis) is the defeated candidate for Governor of the State, QUIET IN THE OAPITAL. There are as yet no public symptoms of the movement in the city of Mexico, So far the Congress and municipality are almost completely Juarez. THE OABINET. There are rumors of a coming change in the Cabinet. THE PRESIDENT'S MESSAGB. President Juarez’s message to the Legisla- ture is conciliatory in language, but firm in tone with respect to the maintenence of public order and the enforcement of the laws. The President recommends the adoption of @ general measure of material improvements, the construction of railroads and works for the protection of the coast line, He advises, and promises to sanction, the arrangement of treaties with foreign countries having for their object the develpement of the interests of the republic and the mainte- nance of the personal security of its citizens. Juarez has an efficient working majority of the members of the Congress. GUBERNATORIAL RESIGNATION, Sefior Chiboria, Governor of Tabasco, has resigned, and Colonel Castro, formerly Chief of Police, has been appointed Governor. The Revolation Inaugurated. Matamoros, Oct. 2, 1871. Another great revolution has been accom- plished in Mexico, The State of Nuevo Leon takes the lead in the movement. AsI reported in my earlier telegrams, the famous General Pedro Martinez pronounced in Galliano against the Juarez government. He was immediately seconded by Generals Jeromino, Trevino, and the Governor of Neuvo Leon, together with all the State au- thorities, and several other military chief. tains. MAROH ON OAMARGO. They have raised a little army, and their combined forces are said to be marching on Mére Camargo and Matamoros, with the view of seizing and occupying the Custom House on the frontier. The first step which was taken by the au- thorities of Neuvo Leon was to make prison- ers of the employs of the federal govern. meat, THE MOVEMENT EXTENDING. It is expected that this movement will be seconded by the people of the neighboring States, and that the revolution will become general in the republic. PORFIRIO DIAZ's POSITION, General Porfirio Diaz is reported to have said “that he would march against all those who pronounced against Juares’s govern- ment,” but his course of conduct ia much doubted just now. COMMBROR ALARMED. Matamoros and the frontier line territogy remain quiet so far, but the mercantile body feels exceedingly anxious relative to the ap- proach of events and the probable issue. JUAREZ'S FRIENDS. Generals Palairo and Cortina have issued a proclamation addressed to the soldiers under their respective commands and to the citizens residing on the frontier generally. These officers recommend all military and civilians to ‘‘stand fast and fight for the Juarez gov- ernment.” OITY DEFENOE, Great preparations are being made in Mata- moros for the defence of the city, should the revolutionists attack it. RIDING TO THE FRONT. All the cavalry serving on the station has gone to the front. TELEGRAPHS INTERRUPTED. The telegraph is working only as far as Mére, and we are without later news. PROVINOIAL AGITATION. Intense excitement prevails all over the Mexican republic, where the news of these atirring events has been published. SPAIN. The Malcampo Cabinet Commissioned, but Incomplete in Its Constitution. Resignation of the Foreign and Home Minis- ters—The Naval Promier a Triplicated Official—National Economy the Main Point of His Policy—Democ- racy in Rapid Roll. TELEGRAM TO THE NEW YORK HERALO, Maprgip, Oct. 6, 1871. The Premier, Admiral Malcampo, completed his list of ministerial appointments, and constituted— definitively, apparently—a Cabinet yesterday. An oficial dificuity presented almost immedi- ately, however, and His Majesty Amadeus still wants two of tne constitutional number of the ad- visers of the Crown in consequence. Sefiors O1ozaga and Alvarez having declined to serve, the portfolios of Foreign Afaira and the In- terior have been tendered to Seilors Cantalas and Pedras respectively. Meantime, pending their acceptance, Admiral Malcampo will administer the affairs of the Foreign and Intertor departments personally, thus concen- trating @ vast power in his own hands—one of the most prominent of the objections which was urgea against Prim during his latest term of State service, NATIONAL ECONOMY THE PROMINENT POLICY, A seml-official statement of the policy of the new Ministry is made public to-day. It announces that the measures Of Sejior Zorilla will be persevered in, @ne salaries of the civil list be reduced, and other proper measures adopted 1n furtherance of the ideas of the progressista party for the welfare of Spain. TREASURY KETRENCHMENT A VITAL NECESSITY. A course of retrenchment in the public expendi- tures of Spain has become absolutely casential to the continued existence of the nation. On the 18th of May last Sefior Moret, Minister of Finance, presented a Treasury exnibit of the most discouraging character to the Legislative Body. He commenced by’ confessing that in the budget figures of December, 1870, there was a material error. The deficit, then calculated at 1,200 to 1,300 millions of reals, would be by the 30th of June, 1871, 1,700 miiltons of reals, To speak more correctly, the de- fictt in the present Budget (1870-71) on the 30th of Jane would be 440 millions of pesctas; sale of Treas- ury bonds, &c., might reduce it by 108 millions, leav- ing 332 millfons as the actual deficit. The prominent items were:—Payments of clergy in suspense, 50,000,000 pesetas; due to Bank of Spain, 20,000,000; obligations of floaupg debt, 77,000,000; Treasury notes issued, 85,000,000; six months’ coupons of debt, 100,000,000; total, 332,000,000 pesetas; equal to $70,000,000 (gold) in round figures. His calculations for the financial year, July 1, 1871, to the 30th of June, 1872, were :—Expendituro, 627,397,023 pesetas; revenue, 538,636,671 ; deficit, 38,710,352. That 1s to say, on the coming year he showea a deficiency of about $195,000,000, gold. M. Moret continued thus:—“Here we have our po- sition in all its nakedness. 1 rely on your patri- otism to fix your attention on some mode of remedy- ing the evil. Let me make an observation. 1 am not going to blame any one for what has been done, My duty is simply to submit the thing to your judg- ment; but I must say a word, especially to the friends of the revolution, The majority of my friends, thinking over events, more than once have felt doubts respecting the future, and have had fears of bankruptcy. I have myself felt the same fear, and I have had to hide from any companions in the Cabinet the aimiculties presented; but have confl- dence In liberty and in the destinies of my country.’ RADICAL DEMOCRACY ROLLING ALONG. The democrata everywhere are making demon- strationa in favor of Zorilla, Twenty-two govern- ora of provinces have tendered their resignations, FRANCE. Declamation Against Germany and Cavil Against Cabinet Courtesy. Home Division After National Humiliation— Rochefort Exiled from the Soil—Napoleon Maturing a New Manifesto—Flow of Bullion to the Bank. TELEGRAM TO THE NEW YORK HERALD Paris, Oct, 6, 1871. The Lyons Journal, a violent anti-Prussian news- paper, rails at the Versailles government on account of the position taken by the Count de Rémusat in his recent correspondence with Herr Von Arnim on the subject of the maltreatment of Germans, ‘The Journal is very bitter against Rémusat on account of his promise that energetic measures shail be taken to protect German citizens from out- re. THE GERMANS AGAIN INDICTED. President Thiers to-day received a deputation of citizens from Dijon, who came to complain of the tyrannical conduct of the Prussian troops in occu- pation of that city, and urge the government to hasten their withdrawal from the city and department. The Prussians are charged, among other things, with wantonly im- prisoning 125 citizens, who forgot to deliver up their arms in accordance with the orders of the military commandant. The deputation was informed that the complaint would be brought to the attention of General Manveuffel. TREATY REVISION.
