It also rejoices at the union of the congregations Anshi Chesed and Adath Jeshurun, with Dr. Einhorn as the rabbi of the new society, which will take henceforth the name of Beth El. Our other religions exchanges contain nothing very pertinent or striking. Tar Mysric Five.—The highwaymen in the Southwest seem to choose five as their mystic number. Five men attacked the train at Gadshill, in Missouri, and ‘robbed the passengers in true Falstaffian fashion. Near Little Rock, the other day, a stage coach with fourteen passengers was stopped and robbed of over two thousand dollars in money and valuables by five men. And now we print an account of the robbery of a steamboat on the Bouf River, at Point Jefferson, La., by five gentlemanly looking persons. These bold robberies “are becoming quite too common, and it is about time that this new play of fives should be stopped by an exemplary suspension of the mystic number. Incrzase oF Imports anp Reyrvau oF Tnapz.—The Secretary of the Treasury may find consolation in the income he is receiving from duties. It is reported that on Friday over seven hundred thousand dollars were re- ceived—a larger sum than on any day since the panio. More than six hundred thousand dollars a day were received on several days previously. Imports in almost every class of goods have increased. These are the first in- dications of réviving trade. Iron and steel for railroads must be excepted, however, in this general augmentation of imports. There has been no increase in these, partly from the reason that more American steel and iron are used and because new railroad enterprises are still checked to some extent. By tho time spring acts in we may expect a great improve- ment in business and relicf,_ consequently, both to the Treasury and the laboring classes. Tam Israucvs Cana Prosxct does not sleep. The reports of the surveying parties who were Bont to examine the best and most prac- ticable route for a ship canal across the Isthmus of Panama, or Darien, are now before the com- mission appointed by the President to make a digest of them. This commission is composed of skilful engineer officers. To complete the work thoroughly the commissioners are about to proceed to the isthmus, with the facts already in their possession, to verify them and to make whatever further investigations are necessary. “The Secretary of War has been asked for two engineer officers of the army to accompany them, and three eminent civil en- gineers will be added to the party. This additional survey will occupy, it is thought, about two months. The commission will start, probably, at an carly day. Aship canal across the isthmus would be of immense ben- efit to our commerce and would go far to restore the commercial power of the United States. Lot us hope it will be made in the course of a few years. PERSONAL INTELLIGENCE. Israel T, Hatch, of Buffalo, ts at the Fifth Avenue Hotel.

A NEW CODE OF MILITARY RULES. The Army, the Militia, Slavery and the Muni- cipalities Brought Under Control. Vigilance Committees Organized im the Interior. What the Spaniards Say of the Situation. TELEGPAMS TO THE NEW YORK HERALD, HAVANA, Fob, 7, 1814, Two full pages of to-day’s Ofictal Gazette are de- voted to numerous orders issued by Captain Gen- eral Jovellar, who was lately reinvested with ex- traordinary powers. THE EXECUTIVE DIAGNOSIS AND PLAN OF CURE. The first proclamation of the Captain General gives a full explanation of the present state of the insurrection and the reasons why it continues. It also contains assurances that peaceable citizens can live tranquilly and securely under the protec- tion of the laws as long as they do not tniringe them, The second proclamation declares the entire island in a state of siege. The rebels and persons accused of sedition, murder gd similar crimes are to be tried by court martial. Persons charged with other crimes aud misdemeanors are to be tried before the ordinary courts, the Captain General reserving the right to turn them over to a court martial if the gravity of their crimes requires it, ‘The third proclamation orders the mobilization of one volunteer out of every ten for active ser- vice. Thisis to begin immediately and will con- tinue six months. All persons between the ages of twenty ard forty-five years who are not volun- teers on the Ist of February are to be enrolled in the militia. Voluntary enlistment is to be for one year. Any volunteer who may enlist for one year will be exempt from all future drafts. Every drafted volunteer will recetve $100 bounty money. DRAFTED VOLUNTEERS will be allowed to furnish substitutes. The pay- ment of money to be relieved from service will not be allowed. No one subject to draft will be allowed to leave the island unless he can give bonds that he will furnish a substitute in case he is drafted. All persons over forty-five years of age will have to place one mobilized man out of every ten of their number. If they cannot enlist a sufficient number of men to cover this demand they must pay $1,000, gold, for each man wanting to complete the quota Quartermasters wiil furnish the necessary accoutre- Ments to drafted persons, who will receive the same treatment and be subject to the same laws and reguiations as regular soldiers, Those draftea will be organized into bodies of 300, thus forming two additionficompantes, making each a battalion, Two-thirds of those drafted will remala In garrison, and the other third will go into the fleld accom- panied by the regulars, Every six months the third that may be in the field will be relieved by one of the other two-thirds performing garrison duty. The artillery and engineer corps will be re- inforced in the same manner as the infantry. THE MILITIA. The fourth proclamation orders that the militia | shall be divided into four clases, according to age, and that everybody shall be included in the mf‘itia, all to be liable to military duty under cer- tain restrictions and conditions, COLORED LOYALISTS. The fifth proclamation provides that free colored People enrolling themselves in the militia shall be subject to the same conditions as the whites, and | be mobilized in the same manner, SLAVEOWNERS’ DUTIES. The sixth proclamation orders that owners of slaves shall give one out of every 1,000 in the isiand tp work in the camps and on the fortifica- tions and on the trochas. At the end of the cam- paign the government will liberate all these slaves, paying their owners $1,000 for each, REGIMENTAL, The seventh proclamation augments every bat- talion in the army by two companies, FINANCE. The eighth proclamation creates a junta for the inspection of ali items of the expenses of the war. VIGILANCE COMMITTEES, The ninth proclamation organizes vigilance com- mittees in the mterior, who will take note of every- thing going on and furnish guides and act as home guards. This system of vigilance 1s to be paid for, and is intended to prevent communication be- tween rebel sympathizers in the towns and armed insurgents, thus isolating the latter. PAY AND REWARDS. The tenth proclamation orders that all oMcers | and soldiers shall be paid in future in gold or its | equivalent in paper. The eleventh proclamation increases the extra allowances and food of soldiers in the felu. MUNICIPAL, The twelfth proclamation relates to towns and settlements in the interlor, ordering that only such new settlements be preserved as may be necessary in a military and political sense, and whose disappearance cannot produce any alarm or cause desertions to the enemy. The inhab- itants of the destroyed towns will be removed to the nearest preserved town, and receive land for tillage known to be in @ productive condition, Able-bodied males will be enlisted as local gue- rillas, their families to receive government ra- tions, Towns may be taken ‘rom their presentsite to another and new towns built according to the prescribed plan. These orders are published simultaneousiy throughout the island, SPANISH HOPES.

Spanish Vicws of tne Situation—How the Proposed Forcible Enlistment Wii] Offset the Insarreetion—Reinforcem * Needed in the Central Department— Reported Execution of the Spanish Colone] Montaner—The Opera in Ha- veuna. Havana, Feb. 2, 1874, A small, closely printed sheet, called the Heo de Cuba, published fortnightly, for the purpose of transmitting to Spain a review of the situation of affairs im Cuba, generally written upin the most favorable terms possible, with the view of eucourag- tng Spaniards at home and abroad, nas, in its last issue, very plainly shown the tendencies of the Majority of the Spaniards of this tsiand. It goes far towards proving that the affairs of the “ever faith{ul” are very far from being as promising to them as they would desire, it shows up the dim- culties of the financial state ‘of tho island, the dangers to be dreaded irom the rise of gold and the experimental finance of many of tts oMoers, ag woll as from the further prolongation of the insurrection. SUSPENSION OF REPUBLICAN JOURNALS, ‘The Hco—but too truly the echo of the self-styled unconditional Spaniards—commences tts semi- monthly task by gleefully announcing tue death of two ultra-iederal or republican journals of this city, La Onton and Et Gorro Frigto. ‘the Legalt- dad, the other and more respectable repudlican Journal, says the Soo, suspended its publication on account of the coup d'état of January 3, but the Gorro and Unton were ‘orced to do so for want of means, not having $500 to deposit as required by the censor to respond for possible fines. From the suspension of these journals the editor of the Eco argues that republican politics are in Cuba an exotic plant; that here but two parties can exist— Spaniards and separatists. “The government of General Pieltain, while tn command of the island, is strongly condemned, the insults and threats re- peated and allowed, of the federals to the good and loyal Spaniards of Cuba, the ‘unconditional’ Spaniards—those who have fought and still ight the insurgents of Cuba—is said to have given fur- ther confidence and hope to the insurrection, which before was compictely cowed ;" but the in- surrection to overthrow such arguments as these, as has been often seen, does not remain cowed, although the £co asserts that now, since the death of the journals referred to, against whom it ap- pears to have & special spite, “everything has changed, and discontent and mistrust have died with them.” Tae co declares that now it is neces sary to GOVERN WITH A STRONG HAND, to take extreme measures to finish the insurrec- tion, whether in the deld with arms tn hand or in the towns gid cities disguised with the mask of hypocrisy, ‘laboring’ \and undermining Spanish strength and resources. “Extreme measures must be adopted,” insists the Zeo, “because the’. suffering state of the public treasury admits of no further delay. Two years longer of war and we would be completely without resources, and not even have means to pay the immense ex- penses the war occasions.” The Eco at this point gives a puff to the present Captain General:—“Happlly we have at the head of the military and administrative, government of the island, the worthy, the brave and learned General Jovellar, trom whom we are assured will shortly appear in the oMcial gazette several highly important orders destined tp contribute in @ great measure to the chief and prime desire of the loyal ones—namely, the pacification of the cer- ritory, the maimtenance, Of order, morality in public administration and the tmprovement of the public treasury. General Jovellar, as a man of good government and with the requisite tact and decision, does not wish to _precipi- tate those decrees, but to adopt them after a careful and frefective examination. What do we care if we have to wait & few days longer for the issue of such important orders and inception of such important measures, M by them we can assure the peace and tran- quility of this provin oot Zhese are the measures fOwitch the Eco, imi- tating the Diario and Voz de Cuba, refers to with 80 much confidence, and in which it seema to mY so much faith, abstaining, however, from enlightefi-t ing its readers what these orders are to consist in. CURAN CONSCRIPTION, It is generally credited, however, that we are to “have a general drait throughout the tsland, for the purpose of raising men to the number oO! at feast 14,000, Which number the Captain General judges necessary in order to terminate the insurrection during the present winter campaign; also a general levy, in the shape of @ forcea loaned ot Some $20,000,000, and furthermore the declaring of the island of Cuba tn a state of war. These measures are nobyet absolutely decreed, but it is generally creaited that they will be forthcoming, Dut the Captain General may well reficct over such orders and weigh the consequences, Such order: i carried into effect, may produce the contrar; results, If the creoles ‘are iorced into active service against their countrymen in the fied, they will Cae k go over to swell the ranks of theic Inthe towns of the interior of the island the mere suggestion of this plan has already driven many into the flelds of the pa:riots, News regarding the conduct of operations in the district of Camagttey has been recetved up to the 25th, and from Gibara to the same date. General Portilla, commanding in that district, is said to be carrying into effect @ series of energetic orders and operations, the details of which he, however, Keeps a profound secret, MUSTERING UP HIS LAST RESERVES, The instruments ot the regimental bands he has had changed for muskets, and also ordered that the orderlies or servants of the oificers of the diferent regiments and others detailed tor similar services shall report for active service, He has aiso imposed @ tax of $100 per head on every slave and $20 per head on every beeve exported to other cities of the island.

Montaner, the famous Spanish guerilla chief, who committed such atrocities in his warfare against | the insurgents in the Central Department during the time of Captuin General de Rodas’ command of the island, has been reported as having fallen a prisoner to the msurgents in the qistrict of Man- zanulo, ITALIAN OPERA. The Opera Mg of associated artists, with Mme. Lucca and Murska as the greatand special attractions, continue their efforts to please the critical Havanese at the Tacon Theatre, and al- the jucats are not forthcoming. A few nights since “La Sonnambula'’ was announced, and at | eight o'clock avery fair audience was assembled at the Tacon, Amina and Lisa already dressed in their Swiss bodices and muslins, and the Count, with his semi-military costume in attend- ance were awaiting in vain the arival of Eivino, or the tenor, Verati. Consequently the perform- ance had to be suspended, much to tae chagrin | of the,Count, and the irate Presidente of the theatre, who represents the indignant public, sent a policeman alter Verati with a commitment to prison for eight days, already filed out. The next day Verati was a ged" and taken to the Carcel. The eiforts of in the evening papers suowing he was not to blame for the misunderstanding which prevented his ‘singing “Sonnambula.” The following night he appeared in ‘*Favorita,”’ and it would appear as if there was some beneficial eifect in the stone walls ofthe “jug,” tor he exerted himself and executed his rdie with great applause and considerable enthusiasm. Mme.

GERMANY. $$. The Anti-Catholic Manifestation in Berlin— Thanks to English Churchmen. TELEGRAM TO THE NEW YORK HERALD. BERLIN, Feb. 7, 1874. An anti-Catholic meeting, which was attended by a number of the members of the Reichstag, Landtag, several clergymen and other prominent persons, was held here to-night. Professor Gneist was the principal speaker. A resolution, signed by Field Marshals von Moltke and von Wrangel, Prince Hohenlohe ahd others, was adopted thanking the people of Eng- land for their recent manifestation of sympathy for Germany as expressed at the meeting at St James Hall, London, A DOLLAR FOR THE POOR. hearers | Will the HERALD please transmit the enclosed $1 for the poor to St. John’s Guild?

Theodore Thomas’ Mat: The inclement weather yesterday afternoon ftn- terfored seriously with the attendance at the last matinée of Thomas’ orchestra. The audience, however, was by no means smali in numbers, and with any other musical entertainment would be considered rather large, But we have become 80 .Accustomed to look for a crowded house whenever Thomas wields the baton that the appearance of empty seats at any of his concerts is @ matter of surprise. The programme was of @ more popular order than any of its predecessors. The noble overture, “Consecration of the House,” by Beet- hoven, was the opening work. Then Mr, Myron W. Whitney sung the highly descrip. tive and intensely dramatic scene from “Tho Creation,” “And God said, Let the waters," and “Kolling in Foaming Billows.” The voice of this Gentieman possesses & power and sonortty in its lower notes that can be seidom found at the present day among bassos, but the upper register contains many throaty, unsympathetic tones. Mr. Bernard Listemann played Vieuxtemps’ showy fantansia on Sclavonic airs, a work well caiculated to display the technical attainments of @ violiniat to the fullest extent, The virtuoso of the occasion did 1¢ ample justice in neatness of execution, clearness of phrasing and warmth of spirit and ex- pression, Two movements trom Schubert's sym- phony in C were played by the orchestra, only as this incomparable bana cau play them. The andante, with its charming march theme, which has now become 80 popular with the New York public through the exertions of Mr. Thomas, and |. whien in its beautiful instrumentation brings out the reeds—obve, flute, clarionet and fagotto—in strong relief, and the finale, with its restiess turbulence and bright coloring, were selected for the concert and were played with @ due apprecia- ton of their manitold beunties, Ther came in the second part of the concert, the stately introduc- tion to “Lohengrin,” & work in which Wagner ap- | pears in & most favorable light. The next number was rater out of place On such an occasion and rather below the usual standard of Mr, fhomas’ repertoire at Steinway Hall, ‘the Beautiful Klue Danube" waltz of Strauss is thoroughly enjoyable ona summer's evening at Central Park Garden, but we hardiy can appreciate it in the same man- ner at a winter's matinée with Thomas’ orchestra, The succeeding numbers, Schumann’s “Iraeu- merei,’’ Louis AIIL.’s “Amaryliis” and Liszt's ‘sec- ond Hungarian Rhapsody"’ are the most popular of the myriad works in Mr. Thomas’ répertoire. ‘kuey were rendered witnout a flaw yesterday, Third Brooklyn Philharmonic Concert.

The steamship Ambassador, laden with a section of the Braallian cable, broke from her moorings at Woolwich yesterday, and was carried somo dis- tance up the Thames beiore tho crew succeeded in aecurely anchoring her. While the steamer was adrift she fouled with thirty-two coiliers, sinking two of them and dam- aging the others. Several of the men on the colliers were severely injured. Archbishop Manning on the Crisis in Germany. At the English Catholic mecting in St. James’ Hall Archbishop Manning, referred to in our tele- gram from London, repeated his opinion of the Church crisis in Germany and its causes, pretty much in the same language in which he had just presented it at the Church of St. Edward, West- minster, on the Octave of St. Edward, thus:— In the letter of the German Emperor to the Pope lfind two grave assertions—one, that the Catho- lics of Germany have tor two years conspired against the peace of the Empire and against the peace of other denominations; the other, that nothing in the laws which have been passea touches the Catholic religion, and that, thereiore, in no way 18 the Catholic religion atfected by what is now passing in Germany. Here are two broad assertions, and with them [ will now deal. First, 1 would ask, did not the Catholics of Germany Chucch shed taeir blood on all the battle ficlds of France ? | Did they not lay the foundation stones of that Empire’ with their Mfebiood? Were they not in the foremost of those conquering hosts that laid the first basis of that imperial power? Where was there any evidence or sign ot gt lity to imperial Germany in the mon af ‘down their lives for 1¢? what “man is theid that has cuner uptiuy OF becretly conspired to undo the work that he has heiped to accomplish? What bishop, what priest (for they are accused by name) has in any way, by act or word, manifested him- ‘self to be an enemy of that Empire which was founded on $hg bivo of Germany does not exist im any- record. 1 say that for this reason. When the great Minister of the Empire, standing up before Parliament, was challenged to produce the proof of his accusation, he could produce no documents. Challenged again sod again to bring proof of these allegations, he brought none but this, ‘You must trust my word.’ Brethren, we live under a Parliamentary system, in whici we understand how free men speak in the light of day. No man may be accused unless good proof is brought against him, and apy Minister, however power.ul, who should stand up here and say that you must take lis mere word that a large body of your fellow subjects are conspiring trea- sonably, and should bring no betver proot, would not be listened to. The honesty of Englishmen and the justice of ree men would absolutely reiuse to hear the viack charge of treason brought agatnst @ body of men without proof of the fact. Let me imagine tor one moment that I have not the power to teach the faith in all its purity, and in all its recision, to those who are to minister to you Rereaiter, unless [ receive a sanction from the civil power. God giving-mo the grace. I would lay down my iife rather than submit. The supreme authority of the Chureh in the cure of souls is this, that it will never entrust the teaching ot a flock nor the hearing of the confessions of the people to any man whom she has not herself chosen, tried and approved. The laws at this momen made in Germany forbid the bishops to appoint parish priests who have not received the sanction Ol the civil power. This touches religion in its most vital part. Lastly, there is constituted in Germany @ supreme tribunal of appeal to which all cases | arising tn matters ecclesiastical are to be carried, The following operas | wil be given:—“Lucia,"’ “Martha,"’ “Marriage of | and there to be decided in the finai resort. Tnis is the liberty tor which St. Thomas died. That 1s to say, it is the rejection of the supreme authority of the Vicar of Jesns Christ, the sole and only tountain of the jurisdiction of the Church, the supreme Judge of all causes of the Divine law, the supreme doc- trinal authority on earth. Exiled German Jesuits in Britain. Lancashire, England, as of old, has become a refuge for exiled Jesuits, Those who have been driven from Germany by the recent edicts promal- | gated at the instance of Prince Bismarck, and who have dispersed themselves through France, Eng- land, Belgium and the United States, have defi- nitely settied their English novitiate at Dillon Hall, about nine miles trom Liverpool, the use of which has been granted them by Mrs, Stapleton Brether- ton, of Rainhill. Here about 100 priests and stu- dents, all German, are located, and the course of their studies 1s being pursued by the Jesuit novices as ifin their own country. Others of the exiled German Jesuits are settled at Stonyhurst College and St. Beunos, near Rhyl, North Wales. MEXICO.
