WISTORY OF THE CAPTURE OF THE FAMOUS FUGITIVE AT VIGO—THE XEWS IN MADRID AND ACTION OF THE SPANISH GOVERNMENT— NEWSPAPER COMMENTS. Mavnrip, Sept. 11, 1876. Tweed’s arrest has causea the greatest excitoment here, though, as you will have beon informed by tho telegraph, the Spaniards had only a very vague idea of the Boss’ name or fame, Some of the papers had the nome ‘Twed,” others “Turld,”? others ‘rweid.”” Bome said ho was a secuestrador—i. ¢., a brigand of children—that is, a kidnapper; others that he was a large government defaulter. The ludicrous statement abovt Mr. Tweed being a “secuestrador of children” seems to have arisen from the caricature in Harper's Weekly of July 1. PARTICULARS OF TIE OAPTURR. The following aro the particulars of Tweed’s arrest, the chief points of which, however, bave already been transmitted to you hy telegraph:—On Thursday even- ing (7th), Mr. Adee, United States Chargé d’Afuires, left Madrid on !mportant business for La Granja, the * summer residence of the King and government On Friday morning an announcement appeared in the papera bere that William Tweed had arrived at Vigo and had been arrested by government orders, but with- out details, WHEN IN SANTIAGO DE CUBA. In July last it was found Tweed was in Santiage de Cuba, having passed thero from Havana General Jovellar was applied to by the American Consul to havo Twood secured and sent to tho States. Joveliar was quite willing, even in the ab- gence of an extradition treaty, to oblige the American government in return for their courtesy am the Arguelles case years ago, Tweed, in Santiago, advised of impending danger, sailedon the 27th of July for Vigo, Spain, in the sailing vessel Carmen. General Cushing was notified, and sounded the Spanish govern. ment and found them willing to arrest Tweed and re- turn him to Cuba or to deliver him to the American Consul, Every precaution was taken by the Spanish government to securo Twoed in any port of Spain or coast lino; orders were issucd to the local authorities, especially those of the Vigo and Galician const, On the 6th of September, after a long passage of forty-ono days, THE CARMEN HOVE IN SIGHT off Vigo, and was immediately boaraea by the Governor of Pontevedra, who at once recognized Tweed from photographs in his possession. He was found in- scribed under tho name of Secor, and accompanicd by aceriain William Hunt, whom he called his Bephew. Hoth wero immediately secured and thrown into calabozo under strong guard, but were subse- quently removed to a fortress in Vigo, under mand of the Captain General, His luggage was seized and sealed. WHAT THR SPANISH PAPERS SAY. The following account appears in the Spanish pa- pers:— The Politica says:—‘The celebrated North Ameri- tan criminal, Tweed, claimed by the government of the United States, was arrested to-day by the Gover- nor of Pontovedra and his agents, on their arrival at Vigo in the Spanish bark Carmen, which has just reached that port from Cuba In fulfilment of the orders of the government, said authority procceded to the lazaretto of San Simon and apprehended Tweed, who was travelling under the false name of Secor. With him, a certain Hunt, who accompanied him, was detained, Tweed is on trial as a kidnapper of children, and bis name has become a terror in the United States.” Thave just learned that the American government bas uiso asked for tho extradition of Hunt. THE EXPENSE OF BRINGING TWEED TO THE UNITED STATES. WasuinGtox, Sept, 24, 1876, The oppropriation made at the last session of Con- gress for bringing home from foreign countries per- fous charged with crimes, and expenses incidental thereto, was only $5,000; but it will be unnecessary to expend any of this sum to bring Tweed and Hunt from Spain, as the United states steamer Franklin had been ordered home from the European squadron just pre- vious to their arrest, and not having sailed when the information of tho arrest was received by tho State Depariment she was ordered to proceed to Vigo and take them on board, by the Acting Seeretary of the Navy at tho request of the Secretary of State, Had i been under orders to return to ited States it would have been necessary to send officers ior Tweed and his companion, and some ex- Pense, as well as delay, would have been incurred in baving them brbught homo, —_——- THE WAR IN THE EAST.

HOSTILITY OF TH PRESS. The lending papers of Toronto had denounced his coming to Canaua to lecture or preach, but this only advertised him, and there was a great crush to hear Brooklyn’s famous preacher. So great was the crowd indeed that soveral persons were injured xeriously and many women fainted. Over 3,000 wero at the Opera House to-night, and more than that number turned away. ENTHUSIASM OF THE PEOPLE. Grent crowds rushed to shake hands with him at the close of bis sermon. Tho Congregatioualists are the only body which have taken him up, all tho rest tarn- ing a cold shoulder, though it is not true that the latter refused Beecher tho use of their churches, tor the reason he never asked them.

CHILD ABDUCTION. THE ROMANCE OF CRIME IN THE ATFENS OF AMERICA—A CHILD STOLEN TO FURNISH A YOUNG COUPLE WITH AN HEIR—A HANDSOME FORTUNE DEPENDING ON AN OFFSPRING— HOW A YOUNG MOTHER WAS DEPRIVED OF HER BOY-—A BOSTON CORONER IMPLICATED, Bosrox, Sept. 24, 1876. A case of child abduction has taken placo here, at- tended with cruelty, inhumanity and avariciousness, compared with which the celeprated Charley Ross case dwindles into insignifteance, and whieh for several months has been smothered from publicity in the community in which it occurred. The affair is unlixe the Ross caso in the particular that the child was stolen for service in a peenbiary transaction in which it ts presumed that a handsome sum was realized by the abduction. Bat it differs in this respect, that in- stend of the wretch being a renowned villain hike the late Bill Mosher ne is a man of protes- sional reputation an? one who for many years held high pablie office at the hands of the city of Boston, and in the case in point his official position probably byes him to more successtuily commit his crime ait escape ‘or the time being its merited penaity, DETAILS OF THE APPA, It seems that about eight or nino montns since thero came to this city from California a gentleman and bis wife, who were appareatly on a pleasure tour, Whether or not there existed a previous acquaintance is not material, but it is certain that very soon after their arrival om Boston they became very iu- timate with Dr, John W. Fayo, one of tho city coron who, in turn, beeamo tno ehicf principal in tho abdnction of an wifant child. and then hastily fled =the the gentleman and his Wwifo just alleded to, It seems that this California couple wero in sad need of a baby, an apparent of: spring of their own, in order to secure the tull ttle to an immense property, which was to follow if there was an issuo of their marriage within a cortain specified time. Tho matter of obtaining this apparent hetr was intrusted to Coroner Faye, and under the probable stimulant of a handsome reward he did not hesitate to commit a crime which involved his immediate and continued absence from these parts if ho would escape a criminal prosecution, For- tunate for thetr plans, at’ about the timo of tho advent of these California parties to Boston a neat and respectable American girl made an apy tion to a Boston physician, und obtaiued through him a permit to enter a iying-in hospital, By some moans or other this fact became known to Dr. Faye, who im- mediately sought the girl so soon to become a mother, and perauaded her to undergo ber continement at a private hospital. ‘The proprietor ot this private insti tution, it is seurecly necessary to add, was pa sumely rewarded, and when once tue young girl was saicly housed the und her offspring were at the will and mercy of the Coroner. A DRAUTIFUL NOY was soon born, and after Mr. Faye became satisfied that {t was safe to take it Irom its maternal parent, Lo inti mated his purpose to the youag mother. I her, and to her credit, that she seemed to lov tle ‘one with even tore than a mother's love. Sho clung to her offspring ws only atrue woman can, 80 that all efforts to persuade ner to have it seut away and taken care ot only alurmed her the more lest she should logo it altogether. All pleadings and threats to duce the young mother to part with her child were in vain, and finaliy it was resolved to change the tacties. To carry out the plans which bad thus far been commenced it was absvlutely vecessary that the chiid should be got possession of jinmediately. ‘vhe doctor now urged the girl to aliow him to take the infant down fo a hotel in the Immediate neighborhood, Where, he said, its presence was necessary 1D order 10 certify thata certain lady there had given birth toa child, When this could ve accomplished, Dr. Fayes said, the child would be returned to her, After considerable persuasive argument the young mother consented to the loan ot ‘her child for (be purpose nained, The Coroner agreed to return tho infant within a specified time, but up to tho present tho mother has seen nothing of her intunt or its abducror, Tho California couple aisappeared at tho same time, and it is goneraliy understood in Boston that they were accompanied by Dr. und that bo is tw share in the legacy which was or is to be scenred by the child which ho stole trom the young woman, ‘That the Coroner is | permitted to escape arrest and punishment is not in the least inexplicable, for during his official character he was tho especial friend and DEFENDEX OF TRK POLICRK DEPARTMENT, The officers threw every case possibie into bis hands, and in tnstagces whero’ policemen wero suspected of having clubbed some poor fellow to death, they felt per- fectly safe if tho inquest was coniucted by «oroner Faye. One instance 1s known whore it rceined that a good case of wilfu! murder would have been made out against an officer but for the ingenious and industrioas detence of this game Coroner. It 1s not strange, there= fore, that the Police Departinent, in its gratitnde, has seomed to sbield Dr. Faye iu this great crime charged upon him, and steadiastiy refused not only to take any steps for his apprehension, but also declined to furnish any jntormavion respecting the case. 1t ts said that when the physician whom the girl fret applied to beara of her situation and the tact rintant had boon »bducted by Coroner Faye, ed himself and others in her behalf and Drought ber case BRFORE THR MAYOR, The Mayor, it ts said, Was indignant when he heard of the outrage which bat been perpetrated, and or- dered that the most active measures bo’ adopted for the recovery of the child a capture of its abductors, Judging from the results, however, nothing has been dono by tho Bostonians exceps it bo to cover up the matter and allow it to be forgotten as s00n as possible, 1t should be added that the Boston papers—while some of them have published tho facts in the case—have invariably suppressed the name of Coroner Faye, at which there 1s not u little indignation and surprise among those who are knowing to the de- tails of the abduction. As beforo intimated, the crime is in many respects more heinous and painiul than the abduction of poor Charley Ross, and it will be a lasting diegrace to the Boston authorities if they do not hunt up and panish those who were engaged in it, NATIONAL BREEDERS’ MEETING.

THE USE OF TROOPS IN TI SOUTH--THE AT- TOUNEY GENERAL SENSITIVE OVER THE CRIT- ICI8MS OF THE BAR AND THE FRESS--A DE- FENCE OF HIS CIRCULAR. Considerable misappre! ion having been caueed In regard to the effect of the decision of the Supreme Court of the United States upon the employment of troops in the South at an election for members of Congress and Presidential electors and public upinion in the South, through the press and otherwise, having, misled, the government has for some time had its attention directed to the unfortunate effect of the impressions (hus created among the Southern people. The ueo of troops at ther elections can take place only at elections for members ot Congress and Presidential electors, This the deci- ston of the Supreme Court did not and does not inters | fero with. Tho case decided by it was in regard toa State and not a federal election, which former ovcur- Fence cannot be interfered with by the application of the Fitteenth Amendment go nr as relates to the ap- pointment of marshals, registers and supervisors of election. of the United States did not refer to a federal elec- tion the government wants 1t emphatically under- stood, ond also that it is aeting precisely within the letter and spirit’ of the law when it employs troops to preserve the peace nod prevent the Intimidation of voters, The Attornoy General, ordinarily a calm and conservative lawyer, has had ts energy and resolution aroused to the highest pitch on this, and while discussing the subject of Into he developed aforco and dotermination somewhat of the Bismarck order, Just betore he left Washington the whole subject of politteal affairs in the South was before him. He saya that he 1s coming to the conclusion reluctantly that a vory bac state of things exists in many parts of the South, especially in South Carolina, Mississipp! and Loutsiana, He desires to have the Hrra.o's views as taken garded otherwise aso very able editorial on the 18th of August last on the employment of troops in the South, he following aro his expres- sions as dictated by him on this point to your corre. spondent halt an hour betoro he lett to take part in the Ob10 campatg: The Hexato hus, ax I think, misapprehended tho decision of the United States Supreme Court by sup- posing that it applied to the feaeral elections, when it only upplted to tho State eiections, ‘The cave which was decided related toa State election, and the law, as applied to a State election, could only'be valid on the ground of its executing’ tho Fifteenth amendinent, in wnat he re- which provides that there shall bo no dis crimination against citizens on the ground of of previous condition of servitude, The ion Of this statute, although intended to provide for the carrying out of that amendment, was ¥o broad in tts terms as to cover citizens of ‘all colors and con- ditions, and the Court held that such au enactment ‘was not “appropriate legislation” to carry out the Fif- teenth Amendment. It was, therefore, ineffective in Inrmsbing any remedy for wrongs dono at a stato election, bat the Court expressly stated that his ral ing had bo bearing upon the federal elections. The instructions of the marshals are founded upon the ex- press provisions of the statutes applicable to the fed- eral elections, sections 2.004, 2021, 2,024 in- clusive; 5,503, 5,507 8,522, Tho attention of the Marshal and lus deputies is also calied otner sections of title 2401 the Revised Stat ginning on page 353, and to chapter 7 of tue 70, be- ginning on page 1,073. They are not therefore in con- thet with the judgment ot the Supreme Court, The in- structions to the inarshals simply efhbody the provi- sions of the law, So far as the posse comitatus is con- cerned it gives the common law powers and those of the statutes. This is fully covered in the clause ot the opinions of ex-Attorney Gencral Pork (Cushing, page 473), reiterating & decision of Lord Mansfield in 21 Park = Hist., pages. 672, 688. Tho powers of a Sherif or ao Marshal to call ont the posse comilatus ure well settled, ‘and they areas broat as the languago of the instruc: tions to the marshals makes It, ‘The Attorney General has been somewhat annoyed by the unjust attacks made upon him since he issued hfs insiractions; but ho takes everything philozopni- cally.
