High Treason to Publish the Miss- ing Documents. [erxcta pesratcH To THE HERALD BY CABLE.) Bert, Deo, 13, 1874. The trial of Count Von Arnim has de- veloped an interesting and very important issue, in the effort made on the part of the Crown Prosecutor to implicate the free press of America in the serious complica- tion between Prince Bismarck and the ex- Minister of the Empire. TELEGRAPH SPIES, Already several references have been made in Court to telegrams which the Hrnatp cor- respondent in the German capital forwarded to London for transmission by cable to New York. POLICE SURVEILLANCE OF THE FREE PRESS OF AMERICA, One telegram, partly in cipher, which was read in Court, stated that important letters bad been mailed for the London office of the Hesatp, This was taken to imply a con- nivance on the part of the servants of the Hotel Rome, and detectives were examined to testify concerning the personal movements of the Hepatp correspondent, who was, ap- parently, under police surveillance during the entire period of his stay in the city. VON ARNIM’S TESTIMONY, Count Von Arnim, when examined upon thess points by the Judge, denied having any knowl. edge of the telegram. He declared also that he is unacquainted with the name of the Hezatp correspondent. MAS BISMARCK VIOLATED THE NATIONAL POST OFFICE ? The Frankfort Zeitung reports that one of the letters of your correspondent has been readin Court. If this be correct, the letter ‘was intercepted by the Prussian police. 4 DESPERATE RESOLVE OF THE PRINCE CHAN- CRLLOB. Private information says that Bismarck will spare no trouble or expense in order to know the existing relations of the Herarp to Von Arnim. THE PENALTY OF HIGH TREASON AGADIST NEWS- PAPER PUBLICATION. ay The Court trying Count Von Arnim was in secret session two hours yesterday, when the most important of the documents—which have been withheld from the publio—were read. The prosecution gave warning that any per- son who published or caused to be published these documents would be considered guilty of high treason. THE LEGAL ARGUMENTS. Baron Holstein will testify on Monday morning, and the counsel will begin their arguments in the afternoon, WAITING FOR THE VERDICT. The verdict will probably be postponed antil next week.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 18, 1874, Needful Improvement of the Missis- sippi’s Mouth—T! Jetty Sys Con- demned—The Ruined Levees and Dan- ger of Depopulation. The commission sent to Europe to examine the Jetty syatem at the mouth of the Danube and other rivers, witha view to ascertain whether it could be adopted in deepening the mouth of the Missis- sippl, are now at Southwest Pass and have care- fuily examined the delta of the river before begin- ning their report. It is understood that both Gen- era}s Comatock and Wright are Of the opinion that the jetty system is impracticable for the Mississippi and thatthe Fort St, Poilip Canal, the route of which is also being examined by snotner commis- sion, is the only way to avo:d the mud lump block- ade which has so seriously interferea with the commerce of the river. The commission, consisting of three ofticcrs of the Engineer corps and two civil en- gimeers, of whom General Warren 1a presi- dent, sppointed by the President to report upon the best method for improving the levees of the Mississippi River and reclaiming the lands, have finished their labors and will be ready to re- port in @ few days Tre commission are unani- mous in the opinion that the government should begin at once a comprehensive system of rebulld- ing and improving the levees bordering on the Svates of Arkansas, Mississippi and Louisiana, a3 otherwise the crevasses caused by the floods of Jast spring will expose the inhabitants of the submerged districts to more serious trouble than they have yet experienced and utterly impoverish the people of wnat has been and ongnt still to be @ prosperous and productive section of the coun- try. The report will be submitted to the President, and by him, it is said, it willbe sent to Congress with an urgent recommendation that Congress authorize the Engineer corps to proceed with the work and make for it a liberal appropriation. Judge Swayne Not to Resign trom the Supreme Bench—Secretary Bristow Undazzled by the Judicial Ermixe— The Cattoll Case. Judge Swayne, of the United States Supreme Court, authorizes @ denial of the report ot bia tended resignation, His health is good and his mind vigorous, and he does not feel the need of rest, There is some reason to believe that persons anxious to get Mr. Bristow out of the Treasury, and thinking if possible to persuade him to accept @ place op the Supreme Bench, were the authors ol the report about Judge Swayne. ‘Ihe straigntior- ward business course and direct, uncompromis- ‘ng character of the Secretary of the Ireasury, as also his opinions on the currency and finance ques- tions, create a strong Opposition to hii ut they bave also made for bim many strong friends. His determination to cconomize in the expenses of administration, wh form ,ome surplus officers out of place, and has just caused Mr. Cattell and his friends some dis- appointment. The Secretary could not it ie gaid, the need tor two financial agents in London, and he preferred Mr. Bigelow to Mr. Cattell, as likely to be the more efficient. 1t¢ is understood to be noc imposaiple to drive Mr. Bristow out of the Treavury, but he will hardly vedrawn out by the offer of aseat on the Supreme Bench, nor will he be worried out by petty annoyances, If he goes out it will be on a conflict of principli or of an important point in policy, and this aces not seem probable just now.

FLIGHT FROM THE CITY PREVENTED. Nuw Opveana, Dec, 13, 1874, After all the preparations made for attack on the State House, none was made, But the scare is not yetover, There were men on the watch to prevent apy members of the Returning Board from fleeing the city belore prociaiming the result. Itthey had such an intention they abandoned it, as they nad a secret Sunday session to-day. Why they expect an attack on the State House is inex- Pilcable, ag the radicals are all at home nights, and if violence were intended for them the mob Would go to their houses. The leaguers ridicule the idea of charging upon the empty Capitol or bunting any of the obnoxious men before Jan- uary. McEnery to-day declares that the people will not do it, and if the pent-up torrent of indignation gets vent by lynching, within a ‘day or two, it will be done by men for whose actions he and his party cannot be held responsible. It will certainly not be done by the leaguers, ‘The fact that the streets, which every fine Sun- day are crowded by young men, to-day are almost entirely deserted, 1s ominous of some mystery at work, It 1s believed that they are congregated in halls, making some preparations of a secret char- acter, Citizen Sentinels Guarding the Outlets of the City to Prevent the Flight ef the Returning Board—A Popular Coup Expected. NEw ORLEans, Dec, 13, 1874, The mystery attending the absence from tne street of the White Leaguers is explained by the fact that to-night two companies went to the Jackson Railroad depot and scrutinized all the passengers and eXamined all tne baggage to see that the members of the Returning Board do not escape with the returns.

Apprehensions of Trouble in Washing- ‘THE HAWAIIAN KING. ton—The Policy of the White Leaguers. WASHINGTON, Dec. 18, 1874. The Lou‘stanians in Washington express great apprehensions of the action of the White League, and profess to believe that this organization will move, when it does, with such rapidity and secrecy as to outwit toe lederal‘troops, At the same time it is reported of the White Leaguers that they are determined to come into no condict with the tederal authorities, and that, however strong they May oe, or however determined to act, a single feaeral sergeant will always be sufilcient to dis perse them. Thus they mean to pro! avoid rebellion, and as one Tight to vi to 1reely meet in ne atte d, they act up to the: tl May annoy Kellogg his party Without laying themselves Open to interference. QOUNTERFBITERS OAUGHT. More of the Ballard Gang of Uperstors Captured—Regions in Pennsylvania Blooded with False Money. ERIE, Pa., Dec. 13, 1874 Gubert B. Perkins, an operator of the United States Secret Service Bureau, arrested and brought to this city to-day two ‘shovers” of the “queer,” named Benjamin F.

The fleid of their operations wasin Potter county, where there are no-banks witbin twenty-five miles of the scene of their work. So much or the “queer” got afloat that it may be calied the currency of the place. All the bills “shoved” were finely executed. Tuey were counterfeit tens on the Trader's National Bank of Syracuse, New York. Perkins got on the track of Erway at Fort.Erie, when he was hunting the Ballard gang, but, bav- ing larger game in view, did not arrest him. He Was secured in Potter county.
