Monster Strike of the Cigar Makers—The Havana Press on the Spanish “Alabama” Claims, TELEGRAM TO THE NEW YORK HERALD. Havana, Oct. 8, 1872. The workmen in the Havana cigar manufactories have inaugurated a strike for higher wages, This morning only the Fantagas and a few smaller manu- factories were working. The strike is peaceful, there being no disturbances, The manufacturers met on Saturday and decided to close all the fac- tories in case the workmen of one manufactory re- fused to work at the preseut rates; but the agree- ment had not gone into effect when the strike oc- curred, which anticipated it. Itis generally con- sidered that the strike will finally result in the bankruptcy of the smaller manufacturers; that only the large establishmenté Wii iomain, and that the manufactnre of cigars from Havana tobacco will increase abroad, The Governor of Havana will preside at a meet- ing of the cigar makers this evening for the pur- pose of arranging thé diMculty between them and their etnployers. The Havana newspapers, in commenting on the report that Spain intended to claim damages from the United States tor the ravages of the American filibuster steamers, think that Spain is justified in doing so, and that the case against the United States ison an equal footing witn that of the Ala- bama claims against England.

Notwithstanding the vigor. ous exertions of the repeaters from New York and Jersey City in behalf of the present Assemblyman on Monday night, in the Third and Fourth wards, the people succeeded in electing delegates who are now pledged to put no man before the people whose political career has been one of alli- ance with corrupt rings.

The sub-committee then went into session, and it soon appeared that a Rot desire the business assigned to them. re- sult was that they invited, or were to invite, com- mittees from other organizations to meet them this morning for the purpose of a conference. The committee favored the nomination of William But- ler Duncan tor Mayor. The Judiciary. The sub-committee of the Conference Committee of the Judiciary Convention met yesterday mom- ing at Tammany Hall, with a simitar committee trom the liberal republicans, This joint committee spent several hours in session, but without any definite result being attained, So far as could be understood the following were the tickets as urged by both sides, TAMMANY, Supreme Court —Algernon 8.

A perceptible Incubus hung over Tammany last night, nor was the news received up to the hour of adjournment ofa character to remove it. At elght o'clock ag impatient crowd was awalting upon the stairs thé opening of the Hall. The sachems were gathered tn the committee room with closed doors and an application for admittance on the part of our reporter was met with a stern denial by the ‘anitor. A squad of police soon put in an appear- ‘anes, Which wad the signai for lighting up, and the crowd, numbering by this time three or four hun- dred, passed into the hall, A delay of nearly half an hour followed, during which the “unterrifled” were evidently in a depressed state, and prognostications of defeat were heard on every side. The entire ab- sence of leaders apt to be present on all triumphal occasions was considered ominous. At nine o'clock Mr. Alfred T. Ackert mounted the platform and called the meeting to order. He said he hoped to announce favorable news to them be- fore the evening was over, and after eulogizing Messrs. Greeley amd Kernan, hoped there were some speakers in the audience who would come forward and address them. Colonel Seaver was loudly caliéd ior, who, in response, made an elo- quent and effective speech. The Colonel, however, evidently suffered from the prevailing depression, and though he managed to arouse a little enthusi- asm on Kernan and religious toleration, it was evi- dently hard work. Te was followed by Mr. Charles C, Aleshire, who was very bitter on frauds in North Carolina and eisewhere. The audience, despairing of news, began to leave during his remarks. A mes- senger finaily arrived bringing an extra Telegram with despatches dated nine o'clock, which Mr. Ackert read. The Pennsylvania news, mostly un- favorable to the democrats, was received in dead silence, though some consolation was gathered in the reports from Ohio and Indiana, Foliowing tie reading the audience left the hall. REGISTRATION IN THE CITY. The work of registering was carried on yesterday throughout the city in a quiet and orderly manner, No disturbance of any kind was reported to the police. ‘The greatest dissatisfaction prevailed among voters, though, in regardto the new Regis- try law. Native-born Americans look upon the oath they are compelled to take at the registrution office as an outrage; and foreign-born citizens are put to great inconvenience by being compelled to show their naturalization papers. jany of them were so dis- gusted at being asked for these papers that they went away, making up their minds not to vote, This has been the case with citizens of twenty and thirty years’ standing in the same district.

Straight-Outs in Fierce Denuncia- tion of the Philosopher, ANYTHING TO BEAT GREELEY. Contemptuous Silence Not To Be Borne by Bour- bons—Correspondence Between Charles O’Conor and Judge Lyons—A Pretty Kettle of Political Fish. RiouMonp, Va., Oct. 8, 1872. Mr. James Lyons, late President of the Louisville Demooratic Bourbon Sotehead Convention, which nominated Chartes ©’Conor, of New York, and John Quincy Adams, of Massachusetts, for the Presidency and Vice Presidency, having published ® card in the press of this city, calling a Convon- tion on the 29th inst., for the purpose of ferming an electoral tioket for O'’Conor and Adams, the HERALD correspondent called upon him with a view to ascertain whether Mr. O'Conor had actually accepted the Louisville nomination. Mr, Lyons re- piled by showing me a correspondence which had recently taken place between himself and Mr. O'Conor, and though the tatter expressly stated in his letter that it should not be published, Mr. Lyons considered it his duty to lay it before the public. He eulogized Mr. 0’Conor as the faithful and fearless defender of the constitu- tion and the equal rights of all, who asked nothing for one part which those of every other part were not equally entitled to; never bending the preg- nant hinges of the knee that thrift may follow fawning; but, with sublime devotion to the liberty and welfare of his country, clinging to the consti- tution as his rock of ages. It was Mr. Lyons’ in- tention to publish the correspondence in the city press, but upon the solicitation of your corespond- ent he willingly gave it exclusively to the HERALD, BOURBON COCKTAILS FOR TWO. The following is the correspondence :— Rronm . My Dean Mn, O}GONOR I?

It is of much importance that you should do so, for many people otherwise sensibie will not vote for any man who will not say Sicectly and publicly that he will servo them, because they cousider his si: lence as contemptuous, which you know ts unpar- donabic. Isee the papers represent you as sayin, that Greeley is a man of transcendent ability. rd not thet a misprint? If it 1s please tell me so. Yours truly, LYONS, New York, Sept. 30, 1872, Hon. James Lyons, Richmond, gan My DEAR Sir—Your esteemed ‘or of the 23d inst. did not reach me till this forenoon. If I have said or written anything differing in the slightest degree from what 1s contained in my two pndiished communications—one to the Louisville Coavention and one to the committee—I possess no power of language which would enablo me to speak more plainly on any of the subjects there treated of. It may be true, a8 you suggest, that the people wiil Nos vote for any man wio will not announce in a public manner that if elected he will serve them. If So they will never vote forme, Ishould regard such announcement as one mode of soliciting their support, Ifthe Southern people did not know be- fore I gaid anything on the subject that one of the candidates is a man of transcendent ability they are singularly slow of apprehension.
