Vico, Spain, Seps. 28, 1876, ‘The departure of the United States frigate Franklin from this port was doiayed on account of the death of Beailor, who was badly injured in a gale. The Franklin sailed for the United States at noon to- Say, with William M. Tweed on board, Hunt, Tweed’s companion, with Sands, the mysteri- 6 American, sailed to-day for Southampton, on the Pacific steamer Mondego, WHAT THE PEOPLE OF THIS CITY THINK OF THE CASE. William M. Tweed’s retcrn homo was again tho eub- lect of very general comment in certain political cir- cles yesterday, and it was interesting to note the pop- ar impressions formed on the coming event. all doubt being now removed as to the Boss’ return, the tonversation naturally runs upon the effect of his pres- ence bero:and “what they are going to do about him’? when he eomes. But there is a marked change in the tone of that 8 contrasted with earlier periods in the Twoed prosecution, Much of the interest formerly tolt in the movements of the deposed ringmastor has diod away, and at presont the views expressed about the Tweed case have a flavor of politics mixed tn with dissertations on State, federal and internatioral law. Most of those with whom the writer chanced to con- verse yesterday seemed to consider the national gov- ernment unusually zealous in the present instance, tnd they attributed this zeal to political motives. Although the view expressed to a HexaLp reporter the day before of a fancied intention to extort disclosures from Tweed is not genggally credited by thoughtful people, it is believed, at least, that the repablican party will claim the credit of the Boss’ capture and try to make capital out of it, Waoat willbe done with bun when he arrives is the important question now, and there seoms to be no one about New York equal to e solution of the riddle. Thero is very little doubt, however, that he will be turned over tothe State Suthorities on the arrival of the Frankliu. Bus one thing alone, 1t is thought, can prevent such a course, And that is the probability of an investigation of the tmaiter of his reported possession of a forged passport. Tweed, it will be remembered, had a passport in Cuba when arrested under the name of Secor, which is said to have beon a forgery. The writer yesterday conversed with Mr. Samuel G. Courtney, ex-United States District Attorney, on the legal aspects of Tweed’s case. “What do you think,” the writer asked, “will be the Fesult ot bringing Tweed back?” pm “I fancy there cau be but one disposition made of him. He fS not brought back on any mandate or re- quisition, but through the comity of nations as a great public robber, He will bo the prisoner of the United States, I presume, only, so long as he is being trans- ferred irom Spain to this country. When he lands here, {{ he is not held on some special charge, ot which I know nothing,,by the national government, he can be arrested by the State authorities and held to account here for his offences as tf he had never left us.’ “How do you account for the distinction made be- tween his case and that of the murderer Sharkey ?”” “There is ths distinction, that nis surrender cannot give rise to the same complications that might arise if Sharkey were surrendered, 1t rhould not be forgotten that we have many political refugees {rom Havana here, It is not impossible that the mother govern- mené on the island of Cuba may have convicted some of these of murder, or at loast of some capital offence; but surely the United States is not ready to give these people up.” Mr. Peckham told a reporter yesterday that he had not decided on any plan for tbe prosecution of Tweed ou his arrival here. No such steps are necessary. The Jury that heard tho city’s suit tor $6,000,000 against the “old man” have recorded their verdict for the city apd the settlement of that litle bill will take some time. An official at the Sherifl’s office said to an inquiring Feporter:— “1 Know just about as much as you do as to Tweed’s movements and the intentions of the government, We shall know more about it when Tweed arrives. Of course be beiongs to the State of New York, bat if he ts on board the Frank!n he is for the present at least a United States prisoner. I suppose he wil be deliv- treil over to us by the direction of the authorities at Washington.” i Friends of Wiliam M. Tweed, Jr. (who was reported to be with bis father in Spain), say be was in the city afew daysago, One gentieman with whom a HrraLo reporter talked yosterday said the younger Tweed went up to Greonwich, Conn., afew days ago to seo his mother, who was then quite ti, This gentieman said he cortainly cannot be in Spain and in ail proba- bility had since returned and is now very hkely in New York. Popuiar views of the Tweed case are still heard on All sides, but these are seldom worth recording. Somo express their satisfaction that the gigantic plunderer has not been permitted to escape as casily as he con templated, and others profess to think, on a hasty view of the matter, that he hos already been suf. ciently punished for his evil deeds, THE TURKISH DILEMMA. MONTENEGRO SETTING HER PRICE ON PEACE. Loxpow, Sept, 28, 18: A special despatch to the Standard from Cattaro saya the report comes from authentic sources th: tenegrins are unwilling to coaclade peace w Jensive concessions of territory by Turkey, TCURRNAYREY WILL NOT RESIGN.

MADKESS FOR TURKEY TO REJECT PEACE. Loxpox, Sept. 29, 1976. ‘The Times’ correapondent at Belernde teierranhe an NEW YORK HERALD, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 29, 1876.—TRIPLE SHEET. follows:—‘‘There has been change here to-day, although the excitement is not so great as it was, It is believed by the Russians that ‘me conditions of peace proposed by the Powers will be rejected by the Porta If they are, the continuance of the war is certain. It would be ma peas for Turkey to reject the advice ten- dered her. The Russians and Servians are hardy races and can endure a winter campaign well, but ‘the Turks cannot. Tne Servian government will maintain silence on the question of making Prince Milan King; but the advocates of Servian royalty, who area vast majority, declare that the proc- lamation mast be made with all due solemnity in Belgrade. In such case some consuls would probably be instructed by thoir governments te retire from Belgrade. GENERAL SUWAROFP’S MISSIOX, ‘The Vienna correspondent of the Times, commenting on General Suwaroff’s mission to Vienna, remarks that this ig the same envoy the Czar sent Inst autemn on a mission to Belgrade to dissuade the Servians from going to war. Although the duty was anpalatable the General then conducted bis mission so well that be became the most popular person in Belgrade. If, there-. fore, the Czar feels prompted to act directly in the affairs of Servia, and thus place himself in a position antagonistic to the interests of Austria, bis present envoy is the proper person to communicate bis views to the Austrian Emperor, between whom and the Czar strong per- sonal sympathy exists. This persona! communication bas political importance, irrespective of the contents of the letter of which the envoy is the bearer. GOOD WORD FROM CONSTANTINOPLE. * The news from Constantinople is satisfactor; ‘The Porte is inclined to accept the peace con- ditions, but secks for a form more compatible with its dignity. Only a prompt acceptanco of the conditions as they stand can prevent further complica- tions, The position appears very precarious, and the Porte bas been made aware of the fact, THE POWERS DRFIXING THEIR POSITIONS. A Berlin despatch to the Times says the Czar is described as averse to war, but he has per- mitted warlike addresses, Austria bas left no doubt of its position, The attempt to establish a purely Slavonic policy and Slavonic press in and out of Aus- tria reminds the Vienna government that Rus- sia is ready for war. In recent = @ncoun- ters the Servians havo displayed the royal insignia, The army of the Timok has also prociaimed Milan king. The Russian General Novoseloff has as- sumed command of the Army of the Jbar. MORE FIGHTING IMMINENT, A despatch from Belgrade to tho Daily News sa: great battic is imminent. General Tchernayefl has been requested to come to Belgrade by the Russian Consul, and has refused because he intended to make an attack on the Turkish lines. Tne Daily Telegraph's special from Belgrade Teports that England has expressed officially to Servia her surprise at tho course adopted in face of the fact that Servia first sought England's good offices. It is represented that the Russian party do not object to a long armistice. ALEXANDER AND FRANCIS JOSEPH EXCHANGING OPINIONS, Vizsxa, Sept, 28, 1876.

PROTESTANTISM IN SPAIN. REPLY TO THE MISSIONARY SOCIRZTIES. Lonpox, Sept, 28, 1876, A deputation representing the Protestant missionary and Bible societies bad an interview with the Earl of Derby to-day in relation to the intolerant regulations of the Spanish government, Earl Dorby, after pointing out the difficulties in which the Spanish goveroment is placed by tho strength of the clerical party and the vagueness of the wording of the article of the constitution relative to Teligious toleration, said:—‘‘Notning in the article, however, justifies the closing of Protestant schools, and I do not think the government will so interpret it. Probably many cases of hardship are due to the over-zeal of subordinate officiiis. 1 think, with regard to acts of intolerance which aro clearly not sanctioned by the toleration clause of the constitution, that when the Cortes has formally pro- claimed freedom of worship subject to certain limita- tions there can be no question that we hi a right to LORD DERBY'S imterfere if their promiso is violated. But a more | difficult case is when the question at issue is tbo prop- er construction of the law. 1 personally have no doubt that It is an exceedingly forced and strained con- struction of the law to probibit as an external manifestation singing inchurch or the worshipping | with the door open so that passers-by may look in. 1 think we have a right to claim that the law should not be construed unfavorably to the rights of the foreigners tm Spain, because they undoubtedly have been en- couraged to settle thero upon tho understanding that they should be free from this kind of annoyance, I suggest that where those affected thtok it worth while to remonstrate they should send me their complaint, and inquiry shall be made.

Deficiency in the Appropriations for Pay of Naval Officers. ESTIMATE OF AMOUNT REQUIRED. GENERAL WASHINGTON DESPATCHES. Wasnixotox, Sept. 28, 1876, BUMORED RESIGNATION OF ATTORNEY GENEBAL TAIT. A rumor was in circulation here to-night that At- torney General Taft bad resigned or was about to ro- sign, This cannot be officially denied as neither tho President nor Judge Tatt are in Washington, but there are reasonable grounds for asserting that the report has no foundation whatever, THE BABCOCK TRIAL—JUDGE FULLERTON’S SUM- MING UP FOR THR DEFENCE—SCATHING DE- NUNCIATION OF THR WITNESS WHITLEY— THE ACQUITTAL OF BOTH BABCOCK AND S0M- MERVILLE ANTICIPATED. Judge Fullerton made an argument today as coun- sol for General Babcock in the safe burglary conspiracy case, before the Criminal Court, during whicn be re- ferred to Whitley’s conversation with Munson as to “squealing” and putting it on Babcock, and to Whitley going before the Attorney General and asking immanity if he would tell the facts, aud sui The Attorney General granted immanity to this man, who added to bis first crime that of perjury, This should not have been done by the Attorney General. ‘The disgrace which attaches to this proceeding will not be wiped out in our day, On the oath of Hiram GC Whitley the character of an innocent man 1s attacked, You saw him on the stand with blancted cheek and arr ring voice ackuowledging his perjury. Such yo hes never been seen beiore by jury. Yet this man walked out upchailenged, with the Attorney General's immunity paper in his pocket. In giving him this paper the penitentiary bad been cheated out of the presence of as greata scoundrel asever lived. Let him go--the whole wide world is his prison, Ho will iearn that, “Vengeance is mine—I will repay.” He walks out ap officer without a commission, a felon without an ac- cuser and a soul without a God, He would leave the case with the jury, being satisted that no jury would convict General Babcock vn the evidence of such @ man. Major Totton’s argument in defence of Sommerville was that Sommerville acted only as counsel for the burg- lar Benton, and that under no circumstance could he be made a purty to the conspirac; Colonel Cook will make the 1 argument for Bab- cock to-morrow, after which Mr. Riddle, the spectal prosecutor, will sum up the evidence for the prosecu- ton. The case will (nen go to the jury. \t seems to bo generally believed shat both Babcock and Sommer- ville will be acquitted. THE APPROPRIATIONS FOR THE PAY OF NAVAL OFFICERS—DEFICIENCY LIKELY TO OCCUR AND THE REASONS. THEREYOR—THE QUESTION OF PLACING OFFICER’ ON FURLOUGH. From careful estimates of the amount required for the pay of the navy during tho presont fiscal year, after all officers that can be spared from the actual needs of the service shall have been placed upon fur- longh pay, it is believed there will be a deficiency of 2 at least $1,000,000, The amount appropriated for this purpose was $5,750,000, or $1.850,000 Jess than the estimates. During the debate in Congress upon the Naval Appropriation bill it was argued that many offi cers could oe furloughed, and sbus a consideravle saving be made. In the House of Representasives Mr, Blount, a member of the Committoo on Naval Affairs, stated that the Revised Statates expressly provided that the Secretary of the Navy might in his discretion fur” lough officers, and that before the war it was exccod- ingly common to put the best officers tn the service on furlough. “Officers were put upon waiting orders whore they could have notbing cise to do, until now it seems it bas grown up, notwiths' tanding the laws of the land, to that point where officers feel it an indignity to put them ou furlough pay. There is no question in my mind, im addition to that, but woat there are @ great number of officers who are om shore duty and that that duty is almost absolutely nothing. The only cor- n be made in the matter is by the Ap- ilitsel.. * * ® ‘Tho representatives ul the per have it im their power to check th! abuse, [x9 they ought by all means to do it.” Senator Sargent, a member of tho Conference Com- mittee on the Naval bill, in his explanation of the con- ference report, said:— “The Senate conferces on consideration determined that they would try the effect of this reform, if {t may be so cailod, in the administration of naval affairs, at she samo time saying that if it shouid be found by ex- periment thatit was impossible to get through the fiscal year, Congress at anowher ion would perhaps make it mgbu’? A computation of the amount required to pay officers of the navy, according to the duty to which they were assigned, a8 shown by the Jast Naval Register, pub- lished on January 1, is as follows:— Admiral. . +++ $13,000 Vieo Adiniral.. a 000 Rear Admiral 64,000 Commodores, - 93,000 Captains....... 182,600 Commander: 278,800 Lieutenant 208, 400 Lieutenants Masters, Ensigns Midshipme Medical Director: Medical Inspectors. Surgeons,..... Passed Assistant Surgeons, Assistans Surgeons. Pay Director: Inspectors Assistant Engineers Chaplains...... Professors of Mathemati Secretaries (Admiral and Vico Admiral). v» Naval Constructors Assistant Naval Constructor: Civil Engineers Warrant Oilicer: Mates... Cadet M Cadet Secretaries (squadrons and Naval A Clerks (Pay masters, commanding Retired list... Total... To this amount should be added $2,400,000 for tho pay of 7,500 enlisted mon, at the rate of $320 for each man, and $200,000 for mijeage, extra pay to honor. ably discharged men, fiscal agents’ commissions for negotiating drafts abroad, &e., making a total of $7,007,200 Ib ts thought the saving on account of farlougbing officers will be about $500,000, leaving a deficiency of about $1,057,200 to be appropriated at the next session of Congress. The saving by reducing tho number of enlisted men from 8,500 to 7,500 wil! not amount to much this year, as the men are enlisted for three years, and are paid in full atthe time of their discharge from tho service; | consequently the number of men to be discharged at | the expiration of their terms during the present fiscal year, to reach the limit of 7,500, must be paid out of | the appropriation lor this year. ADDITIONAL CIRCULATION ISSUED, ‘The Comptrolier of the Currency has iniormed the Secretary of the Treasury that $1,049,830 of additional circulation Las been issued during the present month, upon which eighty per cent of legal tender notes will be retired, The total amount of additional circulation issued from January 14, 1875, to September 28, 1876, foclusive, {8 $16,831,745, upoa which $18,465,306 of legal tender notes have heen retired.
