The Missing Steamer Hiltornla AfTairs in Great liritain Tlie French Kuilget. By an arrival at New York yeetorday we Lave European advices to January 12. GREAT BRITAIN. ThcI.oN or the Illtiernia. The Liverpool Merntry lias the followlne: 'Wo have received a report through the kindness of Captain Gyles, of the brig Hannibal, of 81. Ives, which u a jusi arrived in Liverpool from Ccara which lends to contirm Captain Munro's belief that the misalnj? boat has been picked up, and that her paenners have been saved. The report Is necessarily meagre, and further details will he anxiously awaited. Captain Gyles reports that while ou the home vtard voyage, in lonti. 3025 V.. Int. 4260 X., he spoke the Bremen bark America, bouud to New York. The weather was very stormy at the time, and It was with difficulty any conimnulca t!on could be kept up between those on board the two vessels. Captnin Gylea understood those in the America to say that they had got on board 39 of the crew of the iliberuia, bound for Quebec. Captain Gyles, in consequence of the shortness of provisions and want of accommodation his vessel being a small one could tlot take the whole of the castaways on board his vessel, lie offered, however, to take fourteen of them, but as he could not take them all, they pre ferred staying topether, and proceeding in the America to .New York. Captain Gyles was re quested to report what had occurred on his arrival at Liverpool, and the vessels then parted company. Another report has reached us of this aflalr, and, althouph It differs in some particulars from Captain Gyles' statement, the facts are the same: -The br'g Hannibal, of St. Ivee, from Ceara, baa just arrived here, and it was stated that about a fortnight apo (Decern bcr 25, the position not yet ascertained) she spoke the barque Ocean fcpray, bound to New York. The r rew ol the Ocean Bpray hailed that they had on board 30 of the passengers and crew of the ill-fated steamer Hibernla. From the scanty information obtained as yet, it is probable that the Ocean Spray would run for Madeira and land the shipwrecked persons.'" How tho IMsaster Occurred. From the London Timls, Jan. 12. The Court of Inquiry into the loss of the Hibernia gave judgment on Monday. The Court was of opinion truit Captain Moore could not be held responsible for the loss of the ship, the accident having occurred in the engine department. It bad no reason to doubt that the Hibernia was a strong and faithfully built ship, that her structure and the machinery of her engine department were sutlicient, and that the diameter of the shaft was In proportion to the size of the engiues. The Court went on to refer to the drawing of the shaft, and feaid there would have been no danger in this operation, even when it was seen that the shaft was broken, if the stuffing-box on the bulkhead had been intact. The evidence went to show that the watertight bulkhead had been interfered 'With, and that one manhole door bad not been properly tecured. Furiker, the Court had great, reufou to doubt that there was any damage subtaincd by the stern plates of the vessel. Wnlle any hope remained of the engineers being saved, the Court deferred pro nouncing judgment on any alleged eirora of commission or omis.dou, aud were of opinion that the inquiry should be deemed to be open. The Court would therefore make an ad interim report to the Board of Trade. Extraordinary Scene in n Cork Theatre. from the rail Mall Gazelle, Jan. 11. Our Cork correspondent reports an extraordi nary scene In the theatre. of that city on Friday light. It was known that the new Mayor (Mr. O'Sullivan) would visit the theatre, and either by concert or accident most pi obably the former the boxes and pit were filled with gentlemen of the class known as "strong Prote3tauts." The Christmas pantomime is still the chief attraction of the house, and through this piece are scat tered some covert allusions to local topics the elections, the city mempers, the Mayor and Mrs. Scanuell. Most of the ' hits," which are by no means palpable ones, are made decidedly na tional, to catch the cars of the gallery; but the author is pretty impartial, all thiiigi considered, aud says a good word or two for the Tories also. On Friday night every one of the sentiments having the faintest national tinge was loudly hissed by the occupants of the boxes and pit. The allusiou to the city members was received with marked disfavor, and the Mayor's name provoked a storm on contemptuous sounds. Mr. O'Sullivan bore it all until there came a passage in which the paliiotic Mrs. Seanncll is applauded for her behavior in the court house at the city nomina tion. The expression occurs, "Down with the lories, down with the Orangemen." The Mayor took np this sentiment, observing, "That's right; down with the Orangemen." Tue gentlemeu tn the boxes rose and yelled, 'Turn him out," and the Mayor, greatly excited, went on repeating, "Down with the Orangemen, 1 cay." The booK keeper and some of the thea're people came with scared laces to begot his worship to bequict, but he refused to be pacified; and seelngayounjgsn- , tleman particularly demonstrative, made au Attempt ito. eet o?tr lo him for the purpose, It was thougnt, oi mulcting sua.mary chastise ment. The pit seeing something wrong above them, and only half aware of the cause, added their voices to the uproar; aud the gallery, which could only dimly perceive that theje was a row among their betters, but quite Ignorant of the cause, yelled and screamed in a frantic way. Had the gallery kuown what was going on, and that an attack was being made on the Mayor, whole a popular idol just now, they would pro bably have taken instant vengeance on Mr. O'Hullivan's assailants. At li'Dgca Mr. O'Sulli van was iuduccd to resume his Beat, and by degrees the storm was quelled. Tetiinoulal8 to Gladstone. from the Liverpool J'ost, On Friday ninht a meeting of workingmen was held at Liverpool for the purpose of taking the necessary stops to obtain subscriptions to a tcptimonial Intended to be presented to the Prime "Minister. It was stated that between X600 and 600 had been already subscribed, and that, inasmuch as Mr. Gladstone bad. in reply to a cojuniunlcation forwarded to Lim, ex pressed the pleasure it would afford turn to receive the proposed testimonial, it was desirable that the different centres of work la the town should be represented in the move ment. It was not the object of the originators of this movement to obtain largo subscriptions from individuals, but rather to get up, with the aid of the matse, such a testimonial ai would d9 honor to trio distinguished statesman, and re flect credit upon theTsorklngmenof Li verpooland the town at large. It having beeu suggested that a committee of one hundred workingmen ihould be formed, about forty names were subscribed, and Mr. Thomas Cope waa unani mously elected chairman of the committee. bpaTn. Sboekinff Scene During the Malaga I u. aarrectlou. XI e limes correspondent at Madrid give a becking account of the fighting at Malaga, falcb be say exhibited all tue best aud worst tnres of the national character, and was Larkahle for that headlong and ferocious ccnteipptiw We for Ma own well at other people's lives of which the Spaniard is more capable than auy other race in Kurope when his blood is up. The hopelessness of the contest seems to have struck some of the popular leaders from the beginning. The volunteer battalions were forsaken by their superior officers, and the consequence was desertion irom the bariicades almost en masse. It seems that a priest, by name Don Enrique Homero, went among the people, and by his words, spoken and written, prevailed on the popular combatauts to go forth again. No less than three priests were conspicuous at the bar ricades. We hear of one tiring upon the troops from a window in the Church of the Carmen; ot another whose weapon was an air-gun, with which he was enabled to do great execution belore the attention of the sohiiers was dliected against him: we hear of children ten years old being raised by their fathers nbove the barri cades holding mere toy piccee, which, however, they managed. to dischaige at their assailants; we hear of young girls "with cartridge-boxes at their waists and pistols In their hands. Wo hear of soldiers advancing under shelter of the prisoners they had taken, and the bullets of the volunteers finding their way to the soldiers' bodies through the bodies of their sacrificed companions. We hear of girls rushing forward to clatp the soldiers iu their arms, that their lovers might despatch them by stabbiug them iu their backs. Nothing but despair could nipgest the insane resistance which took place. Instances are mentioned in which, as tn some of the narrowest lanes of the district of I'ercbel, a handful of volunteers held their ground ngftinBt 300 soldiers. Most of the wounds were inflicted by the bayonet; not a few were dealt in cold blood after the conflict. The greatest number ot the dead beloug to the most abandoned class of society. The Govern ment reckons the killed on its own side at forty eight and the wounded at one hundred aud fifty. Maul fen to of the Republican Party. The Pueblo of Madrid publishes a manifesto which has been lssned by the republican pirty in view of the approaching elections in Spain. The substance ot the advice given to the elec tors is to reject all doubtful candidates aud to sacrifice personal rivalry aud ambition in order that the whole strength ol the party may be turned to accouut. The electoral operations are to be closely watched, and nil illegal influences strenuously opposed. On the other hand, the fullest use is to be made of the means of legitimate aeitation supplied by the press, by public meetings, and political organization. Union is to be the watchword of the party, aud constitute its strength amid the "divisions which are undermining the monarchical party." The proclamation con cludes by exhorting the citizens to exert themselves to the utmost iu order to obtnin the triumph of the republican candidates, and says that if they are successful the last vestiges of the old regime will be swept away and Spain will be saved, FRANCE. OJflcial Report of the Minister or Finance A teleeram from Paris, dated Jauuary 11, gives the following synopsis of the olllclal report ot the French Mininer of Finance: The official report ot M. Magne, Minister of Finance, published to-day, states that the float ing debt has been reduced from 902,000,000 to 727,000,000 franca, and that the revetitfe from indirect taxes in lb68 has exceeded that of 1867 by 34,000,000. The estimate of 1809 will not require a corrected budget, because the supple mentary credits which will be asked for do not amount to 28,000,0(10, aud aro therefore amply covered by the increased receipts from taxes. The estimates of the ordinary budget for 1870 are: Revenue, l,736,000,000f., against expendi ture, 1,650,000,000 francs. The surplus ot 86,000,000 francs, together with the surplus left irom the preceding budgets, will be applied to the requirements ot the extraordinary budget. The sinking fund for 1870 will amount to 42,000,000 lrancs, which is to be applied to the purchase of rentes. The Minister remarks ou the year 1808, that "it was characterized alternately by confidence and fears, activity and stagnation. However, public opinion has by degrees accustomed itself to judge political affairs more correctly. A sensible recovery has been observed, princi pally during the latter months of the year. This result, due to the revival of confidence, proves how much peace is necessary to this country, and to what degree prosperity will be developed by it, aud how much public opinion is right, to approve the efforts of jour Majesty to prevent, as much as depends on you, by friendly inter vention, any conflict by which peace might be disturbed." More Press Prosecutions. From the London Neivs of Jan. 12. The editor of the Dialle a Quarlre, M. Pfcifer, was summoned yesterday before the Tiibunvl of the Police Correctionclle, on a charge of having, in a recent number of that Journal, published a libel against the person of the Emperor. M. Lockroy and the printer of the journal were charged as accomplices, the former for having written the offending article, and the latter lor having printed it. The Court, having heard the imperial advocute, M. Ilerbetot, and the counsel tor the defence, M. Laurler for M. Lockroy, find M. Lacbaud for M. Pfeifer and the priuter, coudemned the writer of the article, M. Lockroy, to four months ot imprisonment, M. rfiifer to two months, the printer to one month, and all three to the payment of 3000 francs flue. It seems as if the Viable a Quartre were determined to emulate its forerunner and model, the too famous Lanterne. I hear that a circular has been sent out to the diplomatic agents of the Government abroad, fa the effect that no prosecution for libels published anrainst me emperor in ioruign papers should bo insti- 1 tnted without the previous consent of the French Government. TEXAS. Persecution of Vnloii Men Deplorable lonuiiion oi Aimirs. A correspondent of the Cincinnati Commercial writes from Sulphur Springs, Texas, January 3: "A most terrible state of affairs exists in Texas, especially In the northern aud eastern portions of the State. Armed bands of banditti, mievee, mieves, cutthroats, aud assassius Infest the country. They prowl around houses, they call men out aud shoot aud haDg them, they aiia&K travellers upon the roads, they seem aiiuohi every wuere present ana ever intent upon uuscuier. iou canuoi pick up a paper without reading of murders. ainKssinatlons. and robbery in its neighborhood; nud, while the editor of the conservative Democratic papers denounce the report of the Committee on Lawlessuess and Crime made to the State Convention, their own columns give the lie to their own denials Aud jet not the fourth part of the truth is told; not one act of violence in ten is reported. Go where jou will, you will hear of lresu murders and deeds of violence. "The truth is, there Is no place in this SU'.e where jou or any other Northern man could express yournelf publicly with the freedom you do in Ohio; there Is scarcely a road that you could travel without being in dauger of being robbed and murdered. And the bouses that you could euter without being insulted aud abused are 'Jew and far between.' These Texuns claim that they have never been subjugated. The old secession party has been revived, and arrogates to itself the right to control. By the cold blooded and heartless murder of freedmen they have overawed and cowed the loyal negroes, and by the reign of terror they have established they have Intimidated a largo majority of the loyal whites. How long shall we be compelled to endure this condition of things ? We look to a loval Cmicrpss and to a loval Northern popu lation for relief from our trials, troubles, and perils. We hope that presses like the Commer cial will es posse the cause of sufTenug and persecute a union men in Texas. "Old slave drivers aud slave-breeders from Virginia aud Kcntuckv. nulliSers from the Carolina, border ruffians from Missouri, Qaau- trei murderers ana thieves, portkaa ranger and guerrillas, criminals of every crt' and ftora every Southern State, have throngel in this country, and here they are continuing the evil practices In which they are adepts. The civil authority is powerless the military insuf ficient in number, while Hell bas transferred its capital from Pandemonium to Jefferson, and the Devil is holding hleh earnival in Gilmer, Tyler, Canton, Quitman, Boston, Marshall and other places In Texas." TEE ROGERS MURDER. How Hi AMNanfllnatlon wan Committer! Wheory of the Murderer's Keupc. The New York lelegram of last evening gives an account of how the officials have been toiled in their efforts to find the assassin of old Mr. Rogers. It speaks as follows: A gentleman assailed in frout of his own door, and in broad daylight 1 Two daring thieves seized him, attempting to intimidate him by a show of murderous weapons. Me had pluck, and made a desperate struggle against the robbers, who to save themselves and aid their robbery killed their victims and fled after robbing the body. The police were not ou hand,' aud the daiing villains found not the slightest difficulty in getting away. In a very short time the body of the murdered man was found in the area way of his houf-e, tfee police came on the scene, there was a great stir, and the detectives were summoned to take the matter of the arrest of the guilty pnrties in their bands. Th'.-y soon found what they supposed to be a clue. This was a piece of u coat which had evidently been torn from the back of one of the murderers by the victim in his death struggle. Ia this rum nant was a pocket ol the coat to which it had originally belonged, and In this pocket was au old crumpled envelope addressed to a per son iu this city. It was now plain sailing. At least so the detectives thought, aud they accordingly proceeded to arrest every man named James Logau whom they heard of. None of these proved to be the right party. Then they tried to find the man Tom, whom an endorsement on the envelope led them to suppose had written the letter. Every variety of Old Tom was tried, with the same result as at first. Then, almost despairing, they tried to find the rest of the coat to which the remnants in their hands belonged. In this, too, they failed. Nothing came of all their bluster and show of enterprise. Then the Mayor took the matter in band, and, with the first display of brains or skill in theentire case, placarded the city with oilers ot high reward lor the Identifi cation of the man who wrote the loiter found iu the mysterious remnant left on the body of the murdered mau. Kveu this effort has proven thus far of no avail. The police force, who consider themselves au fait in all tricks of the criminal classes, were made the victims of a very sinple though novel "put-up iob." The highway mea, before starting out on their tramp, laid their plaus. considered every possibility ot detection, weighed well the consequences of different courses of action, and finally, after having prepared for the most des perate emergency to which they were liable, put their plot in execution. That their idea was new aud remarkably brilliant cannot be denied, aud that their plan was creditable as a piece of hue brain work U shown by the success which has resulted iu their design of throwing all suspicion from them. The means they pre pared to this end were the coat and the letter. The remnant was carried with them lor the purpose of nffording a misleading cuo to the police, if they should hud themselves In a tight place. The necessity for putting the well-laid plan in operation arose when it was fouud necessary to proceed to extreme measures to rob Mr. Eogcrs. He was killed, and the mur derers found no one to preveut their escape. Then they purposely dropped the remnant con taining the mysterious envelope, all made up for the occasion, and took to (light. Then the police came on the scene os usual and blustered a great deal, pretended they knew a groat deal, worked up the case a great deal, winked a great deal, practised mystification a great deal, and actually did very little. The de tectives, with their usual pomposity, took the matter in hand, and m the fulness of their egotism fell plump at the first spring into the sballow snare that had been set for them. They found the rlue which they were intended to find. The envelope was brought to light, and the hearts. of the astute officers were made glad. Here was a piece of the murderer's coat, with a pocket containing an envelope addressed to him. This was plain sailing, of course. So the de tectives set about arresting every man by the name of Tom or Jim who was to bo found with in a radius of fifty miles. Of course they learned nothin?. The murderers did uot inteud that they should. While this ridiculous search has been going on, the rullians have beeu kept iu close conceal ment, although there was actually no daoger in their even presenting themselves as spectators at the inquest, for all the chance there was of their Identification as the guilty parties. Now, utter the authorities have relaxed their efforts, in despair of ever making out a cleau case, mys terious murmurings are heard among the rouuh classes of the west side. It is rumored that the guilty partie3 have left the countiy that they have gotten beyond the reach of ihe authori ties, and their f riends in their jubilation cannot resist the temptation to hint the fact ot their escape. LOUISIANA. Tbe Murder of Two Itrothors. The New Orleans Republican of Friday last say: We transfer this report from the Monroe Intel ligencer: Wo learn that on Wednesday last a terrible tragedy occurred iu Caldwell parish, about six miles below Columbia. It seems thut three brothers, named James, Henry, and Thoma Duke, went to a young man named Cain to get some expla nation relating to a few remarks the latter was stated to have made. They found Cain splitting rails in the woods, and after some conversation, the tenor olSwhich was unknown to our inform ant, left for borne. Before getting away iney met j. u. uam, father of the young man before mentioned, when, after some words, the old mau brought his pun to bear on the three brothers, FivlUg one barrel he killed James Duke instantly, and with the second wounded Henry Duke mortally. The latter, after failing, drew a pistol and fired at old Cain, but mused him. Thomas Duke tried to get a plttol from one of his dead brothers while old man Cain was reloading his gun, but bad to leave, as young Cain got after him. Ou Thursday the two brothers James and Henry were buried in one grave. Home citizens rue reported to have met old man Cain in the weods, but finding him heavily armed, concluded not to arrest bim. Another report is given that old man Cain would surrender himself to the Sheriff when called on by that officer. After tbe Pacific Railroad, What? The necessity for the establishment of a line of steamships to Australia by way of the Saua wlch Islands, on the completion of the Pact So Railroad, is shown by recently publHfied statis tics In a Ban Fraucltco paper. The value of our trade with the Hawaiian kingdom aud Australia combined, for the last fifteen years, amounts to aboul 1 38,000,000 in round numbers. The Sand wich.

GRANT. His Opinion on the Pending- Alabnru Claim Treaty. General Grant is strongly opposed to the pending Alabama Claims Treaty. The following is bis position, nearly In his own words: The treaty is unjust to the United States, because it assumes to measure injury inflicted upou this country by money value of ships actually destroyed, whereas the chief damage to our commerce was In our ships being driven from the seas by Anelo-Rebel pirates. In addition to this, the sympathy extended by the English Government to the South prolonsed the war at least a year, and for all lives lost and money expended, lor this time, England Is directly responsible. The treaty proposes to settle all these thincs by the payment of tho paltry value of a few ships. iV. Y. Tnhune. The President Elect and Stanton. The N. Y. Herald' Washington correspondent writes: As the period approaches when a new Cabinet must be formed, the plotting and scheming, mining and countermining, increase to such an extent that much leaks out and gives trie public nu occasional glimpse ot the manner in which tbe wires are worked. A few days ago the country was treated to a chapter in the secret history of the past, in connectiou with the military services of General Grant, exposing facts not generally kDOwn as to who were and who were not friendly to the ruiug chief. Although many ot the statements mu.le therein were erroneous, and some were exaggerated, the main point of tho dis closure cannot be denied, that from the time Fort Donelson was captured up to the surrender of Vlcksburg, 8iau'.on, Halleck Co. were manouvering to depose General Grant from the command of the army and consign him to one of the darkest corners in obscurity. Tins obect was sought to be obtained in the consoli dation of the armies under Grant and Hanks either at Vieksburg or Port Hudson. Mr. Stan ton has not ouly denied the assertion that the order directing Bauksi o relieve Grant was.issued by or through him, but would have it under stood that at no time daring the period men tioned, or since, has he harbored unfriendly feelingsltowards General Grant. In connection with this subject 1 may mention a few occurrences of a later period which may serve to furnish additional light. Iu the summer of 1866 Mr. Stanton felt not only an indisposition to assist General Grant in his duties of commanding the urmr, but did much to embarrass himi He regarded General Grant as opposed to the crcat work of radical reconstruction, and spoke of his report ou atlairs at the South as au attempt at white washincr. Mr. Stanton at this time issued an order that information in relation to matters appirtaining to the array should be given directly to no officer or person who should apply tor it,, but that all such communications to any of the bureaus or officers in the War Department, together with the replies, should first be sub mitted to him. This order was considered by many subordinates as not reierring to General Grant, and they continued to correspond directly with him; but Mr. Stanton in sifted on a strict enforcement of the order, and thU9 caused great annoyance to Grant in the t ransaction of bis duties. When the General sought information from any of the bureaus he was referred to the Secretary of War, and at times these official endorsements were quite Insulting to tbe Commander of the Army. The effect of this order was so humili atins to General Grant that he thought seriously of resigning, and be felt the indignity so keenly that he was frequently observed by his friends to look quite dejected. At this time the Presi dent and General Graut were on the most friendly terms, and although the President was entirely ignorant of the exigence of the order in question, Grant's modesty was so great that he never mentioned the matter to Mr. Johnson. The subject was firat brought to the notice ot tho President while on the trip to Chicago to attend the dedication of the Douglas monument. General Grant and one of the officers who accompanied the Presi dent were sitting in tho smokiug car, and the General was emoyinp his cigar while relatiDg some of his trials as Commander of the Army. Among those trials he mentioned the order issued by the Secretary of War. Toe officer having never beard of such au order, asked Grant whether he had spoken to the President about it, aud he answeied that he had not; but he bad made up his mind that if the obnoxious order was not soon rescinded he would be com pelled to resign. The officer asked him whether he had any objection to having the matter mentioned to the President, aud he replied thut he bad no objection. The officer went immediately into the President's car aud informed "Mr. Johnson of the facs in connection with Mr. Stanton's order and its effect. The President was Rreatly astouished,' and said that immediately after his return to Washington he would see the Secretary and have the order countermanded. When informed of what the President had said, General Graut thanked the officer very cjrdlally, and requested him to see that the promise did not escape tho President's mind. At tbe first Cabinet meeting, after the cIobo of tho Chicago trip, the President called the attentiou of Stanton to toe order, and directed him to rescind it by order of the Pre sident, so that General Grant would be able to obtain any information he wished by direct application to officers of the War Di'partmeut bureaus. Mr. Stanton compiled with these instructions to a certain extent. He seut for General Grant and suid: ' General, I find an order in force' forbiddlug information to b3 given to any person until my pleasure shall be known. I am sorry it has been so worded. It must have caused you much aunoyance, aud I will conutermand it at once." General Graut was under the impression that Stantou made this amende honorable of his own free will, and gave him the credit until recently, wheu it came to his knowledge that the order was rescinded only by the direction of the Piesi dent.
