Tweed was President, is a na- tural result of the ccilapse of the ‘‘Ring” itself, and also goes 10 explain the run which commenced yesterday on the Bowling Green Savings Bank—sn institution near of kin to the ‘“Boss’” own, and on the National Savings Institction, which has been luckloss enough to have a Tweed (Jr.) among ‘its directors. There is no need to feel any yuncertainty in regard to the great majority of our savirgs institutions, for they are, asa rule, thonestiy controlled and are considered per- fecty sound. The Guardian and Bowling (Gyen are the only ones that have an acknow- Jolged affinity with the ‘‘Ring” management, ad they doubtless feel now that a good name better than silver or gold.

Better that every mau of means in the directory of these banks sacrifice his whole fortune than that these worthy and needy depositors go unpaid. The Germaz Religious Reform Movement. The movement of which Dr. Dillinger is jthe recognized head progresses slowly—so slowly, in fact, that many, both of those who favor .and of those who oppose it, are of the jopinion that it is wanting in vitality. At the same time it is hard to get rid of the idea that Sit does not, indeed, make some progress. In this far away land of ours, where religious Niberty is a great and glorious fact, and where jthe dominating power of a State Church is not felt, we cannot realize the character of the struggle which is now going on, particularly in Bavaria, but generally all over Catholic Ger- many. Itis something to know that in Bava- wia the royal placet is a barrier wall which hitherto has defied all the artillery of Rome. In former times, when Rome excommunicated ‘a clergyman, the State, without question, gave effect tothe Chnrch’s decisions and dispos- essed the heretic of his living. There are mow in Bavaria several excommunicated cler- gymen and professors of theology ; but the ‘Bavarian government sustains the rebels and resists Rome. The same policy is being pur- sued by the government of Prussia. Great \ revolutions are sometimes of slow growth. It 4s not conceivable that this state of things can Jong exist in Catholic Germany without bring- ing about a great religious reform.

The Grand Duke Safely in Harbor. The Russian Frigate Svet- lana Off the Light- ship—“All Well.” The Fears of Two Nations Happily Allayed. At two o'clock this morning the special. couriers from the Heratp steam yacht Herald brought to the office of this journal the welcome intelligence that the Russian frigate Svetlana, with the Grand Duke Alexis on board, had arrived safely off the Lightship, with all well on board. At half-past eleven o’clock last night a large steamer came slowly up and anchored off the Lightship. The Hrratp yacht ran alongside and soon discovered that the stranger floated the Russian flag. In reply to the hail of the yacht, ‘‘What vessel is this?” came the welcome reply, “The Russian frigate Svetlana,” “Are all well on board?” “All well.” “Ts the Grand Duke Alexis on board?” “He is,” The following is the officer’s report :— “The Russian steam frigate Svetlana, Captain Kremer, Vice Admiral Possiet, chief of squadron, 3,090 tons, mounts ten guns, 860 horse power; from Madeira, October 10. Experienced strong head winds and heavy seas. nearly the whole passage.” The officer on duty made immediate in- quiry of the captain of the Herap yacht if the other vessels of the had yet reached port, and when informed that they had immediately commmunicated the intelligence to those on board the Svetlana. A loud cheer soon testified that the news of the safety of their companions had reached the ears of the crew of the flagship. @There was no excitement in the Bay up to midnight, from the fact that the arrival of the Svetlana was known up to that hour except the crew of the Hzratp yacht, no other vessel being when the richly-freighted frigate dropped her anchor.

Parts, Nov. 18, 1871. M. Gambetta made his expected speech at St. Quentin last night. His tone was moderate, and the speech has pro- duced an excellent effect on.public opinion. He assured his hearers that no danger at present menaced the existence.of the republic; but reforms were necessary to coufirm It, and the people should see that legislation to that end be not kept back too long in the National Assembly. The citizens of France, he added, should take a More active and practical interest in political affairs, and make their influence felt in the government of the country, To give their power its legitimate effect, he advocated the formation of a national republican party, and set forth in detail a plan of organization which 1s based in many respects upon tne American system, COURTS MARTIAL AND COMMUNISM, Several additional courts martial have been created, the more rapidly and effectually to dispose of tue large number of cases of Communist prisoners still remaining to be triea.

General Sickles says it 13 due to the former Minis- ters Rivero, Martos and Becerras, and also to the late Marshal Prim, to state that they ali and sever- ally assured him that Cuba “should be justly treated asa province of Spain, entitled to ail the mghts granted by the Constitution of 1869.” General Sickles adds that “these promises pre- vented the American government from itervening in Cuban affairs.” TREASURY BONDS TAX. The Committee of the Cortes on the Spanish Budget has agreed to report in favor of the tax on the interest of Spanish bonds held at home and in foreign countries. Spanish Bonds and the Interest. This action of the Cortes Budget Committee will excite a very considerable degree of agitation among the holders of bonds of the Spanish nation, particularly among the creditors of Amadens’ gov- ernment in London, It has been already anticl- pated with apprehension in tne British capital, as ‘Will be seen irom the following utterances made by one who purports to present ‘‘a review of the deal- ings experienced by the foreign creditors of Spain during the thirty-seven years from 1804."

FEARFUL TRAGEDY AT LYNN, MASS. A Husband Charged with Throwing Kerossne Over His Wife and Then Setting Her On Fire—The Body Found by Neighbors in the Burning House with the Flesh Dropping Of Piecemeal. Boson, Nov. 18, 1871. One of the most brutal and innuman tragedies which ever horrified any community was enacted in Lynn last night, and is to-day the leading topic of conversation in that city. The actors were a man named Jonn G, Clinton, about forty-three years of ge, a barber by trade, and his wife, who was made the victim of treatment that could only be expected from a tend, she having been shockingly beaten and then LITERALLY ROASTED TO DEATH. ‘The scene of the affair was on Howard street, in one of the small wooden houses which are set back from the street, and accessipie b y means of narrow alleyWays from the street, The parties lived in the Tear of No. 33, the family consisting of Clinton, his wile and four boys, ranging in age from three to seventeen years, About haif-past elght o'clock last evening two women, named Margaret Brown and Charlotte Moody, who lived almost directly tn front | of Clinton’s house, had their attention called to the latter by the sound of heavy blows, screaming and groaning which proceeded from it, As the sounds Imereased the two women went out and listened = veneatn the wineows, but the sounds suddeniy ceased and all was quiet. They then returned to their houses, but in about fifteen minutes were again disturbed by the same noises, Which they again sought to trace out as before, but the sounds ceased as they had previously done. After this everything remained quiet until about ten minutes past nine o’clock when the same Women discovered that the house was on fire inside. An alarm was at once raised, and three men, named David Lee, Frelinghuysen Moody and Fred Walton, rushed ito the house with buckets, On en- tering they found that there was fire on 4 table in the front room, also im an entry way which led up stairs, and a pile in the middle of the floor, consisting of what APPEARED TO BE A BUNDLE OF CLOTHING, was also burning. On examining the latter it was found to be the body of Mrs. Clinton, horrioly bruised and burned in a most sickening manner, ‘The clothing was almost entirely burned from the body, which was scorched and roasted, The flames were put out with some difficulty. One report ‘s that while the men were endeavor- ing to extinguish the fire the poor victim threw up one of her arms and breatned per- ceptibly, but another, and probably the correct, story 1s that life had left the body when 1t was dis- covered. About three feet trom the head of the vic- tim lay the iragments of a kerosene lamp, which had been borrowed from a neighbor on that night, and traces of the oil were also seen on different parts of the floor. City Marshal Barrett and two Officers went at once to the place. Clinton was STANDING OVER THE BODY OF HIS WIFE, dotng nothing, but appearing considerably affected. He was arrested, iaken to the station house and locked up. One of the sons, named Frank, a lad ten years of age, who was first to enter the house says that he had been atteading an even- ing school that night, and had returned home just- as the fire was discovered, He went into the house and saw his mother burning onthe floor. Recol lecting that his little brother was probably upstairs abed he rushed up aud met his fatner coming down. He found his brother, took him down stairs and into a neighboring house. As soon as the flames had been extinguished Coroner J. G. Pinkham was called in, and he ordered the body of the woman to be carried to the police station, which was tinme- diately done. Tne Coroner then summoned a jury, who viewed Une body and then adjourned, APPEARANCE OF THE BODY. The corpse presented @ sickening sight. There Were marks of violence on the head, consisting of two or three cuts, looking as though they had been made with some dull instrument, On the breast were also wounds which appeared to have been caused by something beside the flames, The features were rendered unrecognizable, and the hair was burned close to the head, leaving the skull pare aud horribly orisped and black, the flesh dropping from the hands, arms and body, rendering tt a sight waich could not be beheld without a snudder at the awful atrocity of the crime and the blackness of the soul that could execute it. THE HUSBAND AND PRISONER'S STORY, The husband and prisoner has said very little, but tola @ brief story. It is that he was in oed up stairs about nine o'clock, all being quiet, when nis little boy came rushing up and told him the house was on fire, He went down and found his wife lying on the floor in the condition in which she was found by the three men. The belief that the man is guilty 18 almost univer. sal. One theory of the ajlair is that he had some dimeuity with his wife, during which he threw the kerosene lamp at her, striking her on the breast ana indicting the wounds referred to; that the ou scattered over her clothing and the FLAMES WERE INUALED BY THE VICTIM, Other people firmly believe that the monster killed her by blows and then actuaily set fire to the body, leaving it to burn. His previous character has been rather bad, He has been known in Lynn for upwards of twenty years, though not constantly aresident, and during that time—for the past two or three years—he has carried on the business of a barber at the Raliroad House on Market street, and has been known as 4 man much given to drinking and of an exceedingly bad temper. There has fre- quently been trouble between him and his wife, partly caused by the fact that the latter was pos- sessed of some property which he couid not have we control of. Tie officers have been frequently called into his house to quell disturbances, and Clinton has been betore the Police Court on one or two occasions lately.
