GERMAN EMIGRATION. Herald Special Report from Berlin. Amperial Order Regulating the Home Railway Charges for Passengers and Bag- gage to the Coast. Full Fare for Intending Emigrants and No Luggage Free. \abinet Obstruction Against the Citi- zen Option of Seeking New Homes Abroad. TELEGRAM TO THE NEW YORK HERALD, | The following special despatch to the WHemaxp has been received from our corre- spotdent in the capital of Germany: — » Brau, Nov. 16, 1872. “The imporial German government has issued ‘an official Cabinet decree, signed Stzenplitz, [Minister of Commerce, commanding, in the of His Majesty Emperor William, the railway companies to discontinue the eee of transporting emigrant passengers full rates of charge are paid both for persons and baggage in transit. é HEAVY DISCOURAGEMENT TO THE EXODUS FROM rr FATHERLAND. “" ‘Hitherto the German railways direction has poner emigrants from the Prussian and other it of the imperial territory to the sea- fod at very low scale of rate for the pas- and with the baggage of each one free, pon encouraging emigration. - The imperial government decree which has fost now been promulgated is arbitrary and pbstructs the emigrant exodus movement increasing the difficulties of the travellers their endeavor to reach the home seaboard flor embarkation. i@ REASONS FOR THE EXECUTIVE RULE— THE PRUSSIAN RIGHT ARM FOR WAR BEING _. BAPIDLY PARALYZED. It is said that the German government con- }Hinues to be much disquicted by the large di- jmensions of the emigration to America, It is \stated that, according to authentic advices Jn Berlin, the number of persons leaving the country for the transatlantic United States is growing in such proportions that by the Ist of January, 1873, the figures ‘will be double what they were in the years Preceding the late war with France. As usual, the bulk of the emigrants are young men anxious to avoid military ser- wice. It was in reference to this movement that the oircular from the War Minister, by the Emperor William’s orders, was issued last July. As it has seemingly had no appreciable effect in checking the ever-widening stream of the fugitive rush, a second circular, couched Jn more threatening terms than the first, has been published. This latest War Office paper recalls to the youths in question that they make themselves liable to the severest penal- ties by the course they adopt, and that if they persist in it they will be treated ‘‘as outlaws for life.’’ POLICE ESPIONAGE IN THE PROVINCES. At the same time a special service is being ituted for the more effective surveillance and supervision of the districts from which the emigrants mainly come. BUT STILL THEY Go. But, in spite of all this, the emigration to \America has been only slightly affected to the present moment, when the German railways sre being compelled to assist in the work of lite repression. BISMARCK. fre Prince Premier Progressing Toward Recov- ery of His Health. TELEGRAM TO THE NEW YORK HERALD, BERLIN, Nov. 16, 1872, ‘The departure, a few days since, of one of the Court physicians from this capital for Prince Bis- marck’s residence at Varzin, in order to attend in | person the Premier Chancellor professionally, created considerable apprehension as to the physi- ,cal condition of the distinguished patient. The public anxiety has been dispelled, however, ‘by the receipt of despatches from the sick room, which announce that the Prince “is progressing feoward recovery.” .

His Majesty’s government has received de- spatches which report the existence of a disquiet- ing movement at Vittoria, capital of the province of Alava, between the royalist authorities and the artillery troops stationed there. The agitation is caused by the opposition of the soldiers to the appointment of General Hidalgo as Captain General of the province. The latest reports from the town state that the troops maintained their defiant attitude and more serious trouble is feared.

SALT LAKE Ciry, Nov. 16, 1872. Quite an excitement was created here to-day on the report of the New York lapidaries now here that among the samples of precious stones brought to this city by J. F. Berry were twenty-six genuine diamonds, one of which weighs three carats. Berry declares his readiness to pilot any party to the locality of the discovery at once, and positively asserts that they can find diamonds. He says the place is where Garvin, of San Francisco, went, and that his report was true. The location is not in New Mexico or Arizona, but in Western Colorado, A number of leading capitalists are putting up money for an organized expedition to the spot. ‘The present cold weather at this season of the year is unprecedented. The keeper of an intclligence office named, Cam- eron, Was committed to jail to-day in default of $3,000 bail for drugging and outraging a girl four- teen years of age. The coal mines at Evanston, near the head of Echo Canyon, are reported to be on fire. THE PACIFIC COAST. ——+ Delegate McCormick Re-Elected to Con. gress from Arizona—The Apaches Dying Rapidly from Consumption and Scro- fula. SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 16, 1872. McCormick has been re-elected delegate to Con- gress from Arizona Territory. A notorious criminal, named Mortimer, confined in Sacramento jail, accused of murder and rob- bery, made three desperate attempts to commit snicide yesterday, but was unsuccesstul in every at- tempt. The people of Arizona protest against having the Territory transferred to the Department of New Mexico; and also against the assignment of General Howard or any one else to the command in place of General Crook, ‘he Apaches living in San Pedro bottom are dy- ing rapidly of consumption and scrotula. During an affray in San Francisco last night Jacob Stoke shot James Ferrar, inflicting a flesh wound, Ferrar was arrested. CAPTURE OF AN ILLICIT DISTILLERY. At the foot of East Eighty-sixth street stands an antique stone structure which has braved the storms of almost half a century. From the suspi- cious appearance and actions of certain parties seen loitering about the place of late it was surmised that illicit’ traMe of some kind was being carried on there. Accordingly an oficer of the Twenty-third precinct was stationed in the vicinity, with instructions to keep a sharp outiook. About half-past three o'clock yesterday morning the faithfal officer was rewarded by seeing a boat approach the shore hard by and a man disembark and go to the rear of the building, where is situated an outhouse or shed, Alter considerable parley with some one inside the visitor was admitted, remained afew minutes and then left with what appeared to be a small keg. Acting under instructions, the officer did not at- tempt to interfere, but waived until Rourndsman Curtain arrived, when the two made a rush for the front door of the main building and attempted to force it. The door resisted their efforts for several moments, and when it fimaliy gave way the place was found in total darkness, and the occupants who were, it is supposed, two in number, were heard jumping off the roof of the building. The officers endeavored to overtake the fugitives, but sailed, When # light was procured a large still was found at work, together with barrels of mo- jJasses, Water mash and other necessaries, and sev- eral barrels of freshly distilled spirits. A watchman was leit in charge of the place, with instructions not to allow any one to enter, About eight o'clock last evening a party of men made a descent on the place, forced an entrance and carried off two barrels of whiskey and the worm.

Serious Consequences From the Sweep of the Gale Over and Around Stralsund. One Hundred and Four Vessels Totally Wrecked— Island Fishermen Completely Pauperized by the Sudden Storm Puff—The Loss of Life Lamentably Heavy—Hurricane on the Coast of Denmark—Betoe Island Submerged—All Its Inhabi- tants Drowned—Shipwreck in the North Sea. TELEGRAMS TO THE NEW YORK HERALD. ~Tonpon, Nov. 16, 1872. A telegram has been received from Stralsund, in the Prussian province of Pomerania, under date of this morning, which reports that eighty vessels were totally wrecked during the prevalence of the terrible gale of wind, of which the public has been already informed in despatches addressed to the HERALD.” DAMAGE BY INUNDATION, ‘The town of Straisund has been damaged to @ very considerable extent by inundation since the abatement of the storm. PAUPERIZATION OF AN INDUSTRIAL POPULATION. The fishermen on the islands of Zingst, Dars and Hiddensoe lost all their fishing smacks and working apparatus. Their houses and the contents of the buildmgs were heavily damaged by the high water. Nearly all the cattle on the islands were drowned. ‘The wells were flooded from tne sea, and the in- habitants are suffering greatly for want of fresh water, food and shelter. RELIEF DESPATCHED TO THE SCENE OF RUIN. The Prussian government has despatched several steamers, laden with provisions and other neces- sary supplies, to the relief of the distressed island- ers, HEAVY YISITATIQN AT RUGEN, The island of Rugen, in the Prussian provincial government of Stralsund, has also felt the storm disaster heavily. Many of its fishing boats have been destroyed and the fields near the coast line are flooded. LAMENTABLE LO8S OF LIFE. The loss of life which has been produced, both on the islands enumerated above and the mainland, in various forms by the sudden visitations, is very great, and the full extent of the calamity in this direction bas not been ascertained, Hurricane, Snow, Rain and River Inun- dations on the Danish Coast. te eRe, CorENHAGEN, Nov. 16, 1872, The storm which raged in the North of Hurope on Wednesday and Thursday was very disastrous throughout Denmark and on the coast. The wind blew a hurricane and rain and snow fell incessantly. THE COUNTRY FLOODED FOR MILES, The streams rose to an unusual height, overfiow- ing their banks and inundating the country fer miles around. TWENTY-FOUR WRECKS. Great damage was done to the seaport towns, and numerous marine disasters occurred. Reports of the loss of twedty-four ships have already been re- ceived. Half of THE TOWN OF PRARSTO, on the island of Seeland, in the Baltic, was laid waste by the force of the wind. The small ISLAND OF BOTOR was entirely submerged by water and every inhab- itant resident on its soil drowned. A Norwegian Ship Wrecked and Four- teen Persons Drowned. Lonpon, Noy. 16, 1872. The Norwegian ship Sesostris was wrecked in the North Sea during the terrible gale of Wednes- day last and fourteen of the crew perished. A SEASONABLE SNOW STORM. The Advent of Winter—Snow in the Streets—Wilted Leaves and Wet Feet— Prospects for the Poor. Last evening came upon us, with all its chill drea- riness, the first harbinger of Winter—snow. As the twilight deepened over the surtace of earth dense, sombre clouds shut out the sky from view, and ing, and all passen; r trains are from ten to twelve hours behind time.

OFFICE OF THE CH SIGNAL OFFICER, } WASHINGTON, D. C., Noy. 171 A.M. § Synopsis for the Past Twenty-four Hours.

WASHINGTON WASHINGTON, Nov. 16, 1872. The President, Cameron and the Office of Postmaster at Philadelphia. Senator Cameron called at the White House to- day and labored with the President against the latter’s persistent hold upon the civil service rules in the matter of the Philadelphia Post Oftice, when 80 many party interests in Pennsylvania abide the event. The Senator is understood to have met with no better success than the formidable dele- gation of Philadelphia politicians who called yesterday; but the Struggle is not to be gban- doned While the “vacancy ‘émains “untilted, and if unsuccessful now, it will be renewed when the civil service appointee comes before the Senate for confirmation. The latter contingency is the strongest hope left, the Philadelphians hold- ing that nearly every republican Senator and Con- gressman must make common cause with them or submit to a total change in the conditions under which they have gained and occupied their ofices and managed their campaigns heretofore. Cameron’s failure to effect even a re consideration of the President's avowed determination occasions much disappointment, from which consolation is sought by professions of belief that Congress, now that the elections are over, will pass a “two-thirds” civil service bill to its own liking, or by gloomy forebodings of the family bureaucratic government that will inevit- ably result from a system that tends to consolidate thé prosent ¢stablishment and that must practl- cally draw its reinforcements from the same locali- ties and families now represented in the public offices, It is contended, again, that the rejection of the Cameron candidate in favor of Fairman is not wholly due to respect for the civil service regu- lations, but partly at least to gratify personal adhe- rents of the President who have made Fairman their Candidate, without ignoring the “wheel horses"? of the party. But whichever view is adopted by the several members of the delegation, they are unani- mous in considering themselves daily snubbed at the White House, and intimate that there will be trouble in Philadelphia and at Harrisburg this Win- ter, if the pledges so freely given, and known to have been given at the time, in the hovrs of direst when the keen westerly wind rent them asunder they rained down fleecy snowflakes that betokened the advent of Winter. The Autumnal tints, the gold and orange of the wilting leaves, will by to-day have disappeared, and, buried in the mire and mud, will sleep forever those beau- teous flowers which have charmed us through the happy Summer days. There was a little frost visible upon the pavements yesterday morning, but it was of that heavy kind that quickly evan- esces under the genial rays of the golden sui nd no one expected that almost ere “the clock tower tolled the hour of parting day” DOWNY SNOWFLAKES would fall on the earth. It was 80, however. At first a mere shower of sleet harassed pedestrians, and ladies laughed as they brushed gently the Bee, white specks from their garments, but anon the wind arose and sent whistling through the cool night air scintillant fakes that settied lightly upon every spot where they had @ chance of even brief existence. Shop girls shieldea their pretty faces from the chilly biast with parti-colored or cellular green veils, clerks on small salaries spread their umbrellas and thanked their stars that Saturday was pay day and the; could ride home by the cars, and stout old mil- lionnaires snifted in the snow like stalwart war steeds, and asserted, without reason or convic- tion, that they were glad the seasonable days had come. LAST YEAR'S FIRST SNOW STORM. Last year no snow fell in this city until Decem- ber 19, when we had quite a heavy fall; this year Dame Nature seems inclined to “temper the wind” and give us ample time, by a premonitory cau- tion, to prepare for the coming of those sad and silent days when the earth shall be clad in a mantle of white and goloshes are indispensable. The glories of the tinted foil: will now pale and fade beneath the icy hand of Winter, gnarled trunks of trees and wierd branches will loom out like skeletons upon the Highlands, and the ruddy glow of the fire on the hearth will cheer the soul and gladden the eye instead of the iris rays of the calid sun. ‘hile sitting in comfort over ont firesides let not the wealthy forget the misery that will soon become apparent among the poor and unthrifty, and when calculating the prospects of a merry and jovial Thanksgivings let all remember that charity js the chief of God-given attributes, and that the “shorn lamb” needs clothing and care.

Even the return of Cameron himself to the Senate is no longer re- garded as a certainty, as it was involved, more or less, in the bargainings that distinguished the last campaign above all its recent predecessors. The immediate question profoundly interests all oficial classes here, and their opinion is almost unani- mously for the President’s courageous stand. Resignation of the Surveyor of the Port of New York. The resignation of A. B. Cornell, Surveyor of the Port of New York, will take effect on January 1, and it is understood that James L. Benedict, at Present Special Deputy Surveyor, and fully compe- tent, it is said, to succeed Mr. Cornell, will be ap- pointed to the office. Snould Mr. Washburne suc- coed Senator Trumbull the French mission will be tendered Mr. Cornell. The President’s View of His Re-Election. ‘The Young Men’s Republican Club of Washington called upon the President to-day and congratulated him on his re-election. The President, in reply to the remarks of Arthur Shepherd, said the note he had received was more gratifying to him than the possession of the office itself, as it served to show that the American people did not believe the cam- paign slanders on his character. CABINET CHANGES ANTICIPATED, Reported Retirement of Secretaries Fish and Boutwell—Probable Rceappoint- ment of the Officers Elsewhere. Sr. Lours, Nov. 16, 1872, ‘The Democrat this morning states editorially and advisedly that there will be but two changes in President Grant’s Cabinet after the 4th of March next. These will be the retirement of Secretaries Fish and Boutwell. The former, it is expected, will be offered the mission to England and the latter a seat in the United States Senate. THE MISSING ARIZONA. - No News Yet of the Steamer—She is Not Supposed To Be Lost by the Officers ot the Pacific Mail Company, but Still is Neither Sighted Nor Spoken—The Pas- sengers. ‘The steamer Arizona, of the Pacific Mail line, is | still unheard from, after having been already over- | due at San Diego twelve days. The office on Wal! street yesterday was visited by many persons mak- ing anxious inquiries after the fate of some of her passengers; but they were not satisfied by the officers of the company any further than to learn that no fears are entertained by them as to her safety. They think that in all probability the miss- ing vessel has been visited by some mishap to her machinery or some other trivial maladventure, which has delayed her progress, but will not lead to any serious result. These VERY CHEERFUL VIEWS of the case suffice to quiet the present anxiety of those who are interested in knowing her wherea- bouts. However, the ominous rumors that often recede a terrible disaster at sea when a ship has en long expected, with seemingly sy pernatural presage of the reality, are circulating, aud a day or two more of uncertainty may cause a great deal of anxiety and excitement in the city. THE VALUE OF THE ARIZONA is said to be about $600,000. It is not insured. ‘The names of the passengers who left New York for Panama on the Henry Chauncey and who are supposed to have re-embarked on the Arizona are given in the foilowing list, which is as nearly cor- rect a8 Is possible at this time:— CABIN PASSENGERS FOR SAN FRANCISCO.

First Philharmonte Concert. The Academy of Music was crowded last evening from parquet to dome. The time-honored society commenced their thirty-first season under the most favorable auspices. They made a hit in engaging the best soloist who has ever appeared at their concerts, The name and fame of Rubinstein could not fail to attract every one who loved music. He was in his most inspired mood. His own concerto, No. 4, in D minor, to which we have alluded in de- tail after his frst concert in this city, formed the pitce de résistance of the evening. Never before during the season did the great pianist stand forth in such colossal proportions. With an orchestra of trained veterans and a con- ductor who reflected every phase of the com- poser's ideas, the performance of the pianist became alabor of love. The delightful andante in the sec- ond movement, in which there occurs a tender dia- logue between the piane and the clarionet (Mr. Boehm played the latter instrument like a thorough artist), was worthy of a special mention in the pro- gramme, Then in the stormy finale the wonderful power of the pianist was revealed to its fullest ex- tent. One would think that amid tne hurly-burly ef one hundred instruments a pianist would be swamped. It was far otherwise with Rubinstein, Tne piano beneath his magic touch became the commanding spirit, and the listener forgot Serine, reeds and brasses in the overwhelming tone of the Magnificent instrument that poured forth parase after phrase of the wondrous work. The second selection of Rubinstein was not a happy one for the occasion. “Les Préludes” of Chopin consist of twenty-four petites, characteristic themes, somewhat like the “Carnival” of Schumann, more poetic certainly, but nevertheless equally fragmentary. Rubinstein played four or five of them, but they were so different in character that even he could not reconcile a musical mind to such mosatc pattern in a work ofart. Ata Philharmonic concert We like to hear a work which is fopated on one grand conception and not a set of heteroge- neous ideas loosely strung CORS HSE, After “Les Préludes” came two works, the performance of which along is suMictent to place Rubinstein in the very first rank of musicians. These were the Erl King” of Schubert, and the march from “The Ruins of Athens,” by Beethoven. We have already spoken in the nfost imple terms of the wonderful illustration of Schubert’s romantic song by the Russian anes It must be heard to be fully ap- preclated. The wild terror of the child, the anxiety i and affection of the father, the seductive wooing of the spirit daughter and the threats of the Erl King Were photographed with a Bering distinctness that made the work as rendered by Rubinstein one to be remembered for @ lifetime. In those mar- vellous triplets the quick hoof strokes of the faith- ful steed could easily be recognized. In the se- lection from Beethoven the pianist Fare gach a specimen of diminuendo that few would bo willing to credit the instrument with asing, and more than that, he produced an effoct similar to that of a military band passing ontside and disappearing in the distance, The audience cheered and cheered again, and for the moment the Academy became a scene of intense excitement. The orchestral works Cofisisted of the “Tant hauser” overture, the overture “Princess Ilse,”” by Prony ee geet apd the immortal Seventh Symi- phony Beethoven. The symphony was su- perbly played; especially the never-to-be-forgotten Scherzo. The orchestra responded faithiully t@ the direction of the conductor, and, inspired donbt- less by the presence of Rubinstein, they did better than ever we have known them to do before. The new overtore by Mr, Erd, &c., does not improve on acquaintanc The composer is undoubtedly familiar with all the new forms of instrumentation, but his ideas are Coaper one by their absence. It would take a reat deal of unnecessary study and research to ind out what he is driving at in this overture. Better have dropped it from the beginning from ie Diseramms: The second concert takes place on December 14, and the following programme will then be given:—Symphony, No. 4, G minor (new), Raff; a idebes Scene, d Fee Mab, from Sym- phony “Romeo and Juliet,” Berlioz; Overture, “Consecration of the House,” in C major (first time), Beethoven, Musical a: Theatrical Notes. The Sunday concerts at Wallack’s and the Grand Opera House announced for this evening are very like in quality and quantity to those of a week ago. The members of the Italian Opera Company, in- cluding Lenora Sanz, sing at the former, and Rubin- stein and Wieniawski are again the attractions at the latter. Thisis to be the last Rubinstein con- cert on the “west side,’ and the last in the city for some time. The experiment of an afternoon opera house is to be tried on Monday at the new Terrace Garden Theatre by Madame Lichtmay’s company. “Il Trovatore”’ is to be sung, and on the same evening “Don Giovanni” will be repeated at the Academy. AGerman opera company contending with the great- est of German prime donne isa novelty in New York, but it is only another proof of Teutonic de- votion to music, both in the Fatherland and in this country. The matinée of chamber music at Steinway Hall yesterday was of more than ordinary in- terest. First, there was a better understanding between the two great virtuosi and their assis- tants, and consequently more equality in the en- semble. Again, the works selected for the occasion were attractive in the highest degree. A lively quartet for plano, violin, viola and ‘cello, by Schu- mann, the onein E flat; Mozart's string quintet in G minor, and Rubinstein’s trio in B flat, were rendered by Rubinstein, Wieniawski, Matzka, Goffrie, Schwarz and Bergner in superb style. Mr. Grau announces a series of concerts on the return of Rubinstein and Wieniawski to this city, with the valuable co-operation of Thomas’ orchestra. There was an immense audience at the opera matinee yesterday, as might be expected when Madame Pauline Lucca is announced to appear as Marguerite in Gounod’s ‘‘Faust."’ Of all the rdles she has essayed here this is the one that has made the deepest impression on the public mind, There was not a point lost in the grandeur and pathos of the impersonation yesterday, and applause, loud, sincere and lengthened, rewarded the artist's efforts after each act. Of the other members of the cast entire praise is due to Mile. Sanz and M. Jamet, for their truly artistic rendering of the roles of Siebel and Mephistopheles. On Monday evening we are promised “Don Giovanni” for the last time. “Mignon” and “Gli Ugonotti’ are in active preparation. Next week there will be two important changes in the bills of leading theatres. Mr. and Mrs. Bou- cicault have finished their engagement at Booth’s, and on Monday evening Miss Neilson appears as Juliet. At the Fifth Avenue Theatre the long- promised revival of ‘The Merry Wives of Wind- sor,” with Mr, Charles Fisher as Falstaff, takes Place on Tuesday evening. It is not often that we | are able to see Shakspearian tragedy and comedy in this city at the same time, but aside from this these revivals have an interest of their own. There | has been no great Juliet since Miss O'Neill retired | from the stage, half a century ago, and we have had | no Falstaff since Hackett. Whether we shall indeed find them in the persons who essay these parts next week is a question not to be considered in ad- | vance, but each is full of promise. Miss Neilson comes to usas the accepted Juliet of the English stage. Sheis young, she is beautiful, and we hear she is great. All who have seen her pronounce her the fitting representative of Shakspeare’s tenderest character. Another charm of the revival is to be looked for in the mirthful and elegant Mercutio of Mr. James W. Wallack—a part he has not at- tempted in this city for so many years as to make itnew agaip.

He has long been recognized as an actor of great ability, ana has just exchanged the light comedy parts upon which his. reputation rests for the “old man” of the stage. Whether he will be able to place his name by the side of Henderson, Stephen Kemble, Cooke and Hackett in the FalstaMan niche remains to be seen ;,but the performance can scarcely fail to run close upon the promise. The production of these plays is the feature of the Winter, and in addition to them we are also to have readings from ‘‘Ham- let” and “Othello” by Edwin Forrest, on Tuesday | and Friday eventngs.
