He said that in opening this second anniversary
Of the association he felt that ho could say noth

cess bad been obtained in securing funds, and a
cbapcl, hospital, aud school-house had been
erected at a cost of $20,000. Civilization had
gone forward as it always docs in couuection
with Christianity, and now there are three hun
dred communicant!?, and there have been two
baptisms by Mr. Iumau. In June last a terrible
tornado swept down the valley and destroyed
the buildings. They are now fast being re

Yesterday afternoon Jacob Hill, keeper of a
hotel at Fourth and Market streets, Camden,
was arrested by Constable Ayres on a charge of
homicide, in the killing of his wife. It appears
that about 1 o'clock in the afternoon her son, a
young man, came home, and not finding his
mother uf, inquired of his stepfather, Mr. Hill,
whre she was. He said she had not got up
yet. The ton went to her bed room, and found
it fastened. He called her, but she made no
reply. He then forced open the door aud found
his mother dead. Her face appeared to be con
siderably bruised, as If struck by something, and
a finger was also Injured. Believing that all
was not right, he had his stepfather arrested,
who was committed to await an investigation.
Coroner Bender summoned a jury to investigate
the matter, and after viewing the body of de
ceased an adjournment took place until this
evening. The all air has created an intense ex
citement, as the parties are well known.

THE CABINET.
Secretary
Cox 'a Resignation The
Official
uocuwenis.
Washington, Oct. 30 General Cox, In lear
ing office, thinks it his duty to yield to the very
general demand for the following correspond
ence, and has, therefore, furnished a copy for
publication:
Staten Island, Oct. 8, 1870 My Dear Sir:
When Congress adjourned in the summer 1 was
credibly informed that a somewhat systematic
effort would be made before their assembling in
the winter to force a change ia the policy we
have pursued in the Interior Department. The
removal of the Indian service from the sphere
of ordinary political patronage has been
pecullaily distasteful to many influential
men in both houses, and in order to
enable you to carry your purposes out
successfully I am satisfied that you ought not
to be embarrassed by any other causes of irrl-
tatloc In the same department. My views of
the necessity of reform in the civil service have
brought me more or less into collision with the
plans of some of oar active political managers,
and my sense of duty has obliged me to oppoeo
some of their motives of action through the
department.
I have no doubt whatever that public senti
ment will, sooner or later, sustain the efforts to
accomulit-h what 1 regard as needed reforms.
bnt I ontrbt not to overlook the fact that for the
brtetui Uiev involve opoobiuou liicii n iuny
act he for Uic Interest vi Hi aiminlstraUon to
provoke, and as my personal tendency is to be
rather more than less persistent In the course to
which I am committed, I deem it myluty to
place in your hands my resignation of the oillce
of Secretary of tho Interior, to take effect as
soon as yon can conveniently determine my
successor. The annual report of the depart
ment will be made at an early day, and for this,
and other reasons, I believe the interval prior
to the adjourned session of Congress the fittest
for 6uch change.
I trust you will permit me to add that as the
orlgiual acceptance of the position was an in
terference with plans for life, formed, as I
think, with prudence, to return to my private
business, far from being an inconvenience or a
disappointment, will only be carrying out what
I have most desired to do as soon as it could be
done without embarrassment to you or a sacri
fice of public duty.
Indications that you might be already troubled
by suggestions on the subject have induced me
to write at once, without waiting to return to
Washington. With sincere assurauccs of my
strong desire for the complete success of your
administration, I remain vours, J. D. Cox.
To the President.
Executive Mansion, Washington, D. C.
Oct. 5, 1870. Your letter of October 3. tender
ing your resignation as Secretary of the Inte
rior, is just received. As suggested by you, it
will be accepted, to take effect upon the com
pletion of tho annual report of the department,
now being prepared to accompany my message
to Congress. In parting company permit me to
say that I highly appreciate the ability you
have shown iu the discharge of the duties of
your office. I hope your relations in the new
sphere you have pointed out for yourself may
prove as pleasant as our relations have been in
the past to me, and that you may fully realize
your brightest expectations. Yours,
U. S. Gil ANT.
lion. J. D. Cox, Secretary of tho Interior.

LAST NIUUT'H DESPATCHES.
EFFECTS OF THE SURRENDER OF METZ PRO
CLAMATION BY THE GOVERNMENT BAZAINE
DENOUNCED AS A TItAIlOIt DESPATCHES
FROM KING WILLIAM.
London, Oct. 20.
The Orleanist peace party counts as its leaders
M. M. 'J biers, Grevy, Uuizot, Lefevre, Portales
and Montpeyroux. Their new organ is to be called
the Constituante.
The balloon rest has ceased lor more than a
week.
In consequence of the calamity wnich befell the

new turret ships Cerebus and Magdala. The chan
nel squadron is expected Lome before cnritms.
Lokdon, Oct. 30 Thiers has declined the Prus
sian sate conduct to Paris, because it requires him
to go by way of Versailles.
'1 be French troops surrendered at Matz have
been disarmed. The Prussians refuse to parole the
officers because of General Ducrot's evasion of his
obligations. It said that 40,000,000 francs and 3'WO
guns tall Into the hands or the Germans by this
capitulation.
A balloon which left Paris on October 27, fell
within the Prussian lines near Metz, but the mes
senger succeeded in burning the mails and escaped
into Belgium
It is estimated that up to this time the Prussians
have taken 320,000 prisoners.
London, Oct. 29 Special to New York Herald.
A correspondent telegraphs from Saarbruck, Oc
tober 29, at 8 A. M.: I have hastened to this pjint
through a terrible storm, which has swept down
trees and telegraph poles, and swelled and over
flowed the rivers. The surrender of Bazaine took
nobody by surprise; It was certain ever since the
departure of General Buyer. For several preced
ing days the French pickets were drawn in and tho
firing entirely ceased. The Germans advanced
cltse to the French lines and talked in a friendly
manner with the enemy, and occasionally gave the
poor emaciated fellows a portion of their rations.
A week ago it was understood that food la the
fortress was so nearly exhausted that the men were
nut on the shortest possible rations, and this, added
to the unfavorable weather and the rapid increase
of sickness, rendered the army desperate. A large
delegation of men went to Bazaine. They were not
insubordinate, but desired to be led out to assuatt
rn masse, stating that they preferred to die on the
field rather than by starvation. Bazalue spoke
to them kindly, and declared he was ready to die
with them anywhere. He represented the hope
lessness of doing anything iu their present weak
ened condition, being almost destitute of horses,
even if they cot through the lines.
He stated to them that terms for an honorable
capitulation were being considered, aud he hoped
soon to relieve his brave men from their terrible
situation. This quieted the army, but the rules
were so relaxed that several bodies went over to
the German lines without opposition. They did
not mean to be disloyal, but hoped to save them
selves from starvation and to enable those remain
ing to subsist a few days longer.
On Tuesday it became known that a capitulation
was about to take place. After preliminary mes
sages, General Changarnier, on the part of Ba
zalue, and Major Von Stlehle, on the part of Prince
Frederick Charles, met to arrange the surrender,
the terms of which had been agreed upon by King
William. Almost simultaneously preparations
were made for an immediate march by a large por
tion of the investing army and the sending of sup
plies to the capitulating forces. This was necessary
to prevent the horrors of actual starvation.
As soon as the terms were finally signed, at the
Prince's headquarters, there was a great rubh of
applicants for permission to euter Metz, but all
were positively ret used, lhad anopportuuity, how
ever, of entering Bazaine's Hues aud conversing
lreely with many of the officers and men. One
thing I marked was certain, the general feeling
gainst the present provisional government, and
many were severe against the Emperor, but equally
against his successors. The same complaint was
made that Bazaiue did not masi hi men at an
early stage of the selge and cut his way out at any
cost, but Bazaine is generally very popular with
his army. 1 gather from officers a terrible ac.-ouut
of the sufferings experienced by the army garrison
and people. For many days only four ounce of
bread were served to eacn man. and even tins
many thousands failed to get. Horse flesh, in
small quantities, was distributed, and this was then
the onlv food.
It is believed that the sickly, emaciated condi
tion of the horses occasioned much sickness among
the troops. Ono lutormaut who had been tu tbe
town the day before declared that the wo mm an 1
children were dying in leaiful numbers from actual
fnrvMen. Th Ki P ar;ny of l"k a'-.i wci'l I "'
wan not only witnont; food but shelter; do ad horses
ftxtUfmnant, tiwi foiuud a great uuiaauce, waia
in many rases bnrned to prevent Infection. See
ing the emaciated condition of the men who were
classified as healthy, It Is only wonderful that the
place held out so long.
Ihe capitulation puts a very large amount of
ammunition, an well as valuable arms in possession
of the Germans, and renders farther resistance on
the part of France utterly hopclen. A report pre
vails that tho army will not be sent to Germany for
a few days, and this has created an Impression that
peace is expected, and Intended to be accomplished
through the agency of Hazlni and perhaps the
Imperial recency. The pos s.-dou of the fort will
be given to day.
Large requisitions have een made on tho sur
rounding country for rations for tho prisoners, and
provisions have already been forwarJod from Uol
gium. -Marshal Le lloi'itf is a prisoner, and refuses
his parole. The health of the German armv ia
tolerably good. Application hits been made to Bel
glum to allow tho transport of prisoners, provided
it is found necessary to send them to Germany. It
is stated that Bazaine is going to Wilhelnidiohn
with Changarnier alter a viMt to Versa'llrs. From
the condition of his army It U eortiin thit JJzaine
conld not have held out tlirsi! diys longer.
The States of Germany, northern and southern,
sre said to have agreed to make Kin William
Kmperor.
London, Oct. 29 Special to the Now York
World. It is stated at Mars in Hint, on the au
thority of a staff oflicer of General Picard.of the
Imperial (Insiril, who claims to fc iv escaped
through the Prussian lines on the day of the sur
render of Metz, that on the day preceding (Wednes
day) thro took place tho most awful scene ever
witnessed In modern warfare.
At 2 1. M. a compact mass of unarmed people of
Metz swarmed through the western gates of the city
into the plain. They were of all gAs and ranks
and of both sexes, and numbered nearly 10,000 per
sons. At their head marched a man and woman,
he latter carrying a white, and In the rear were
hundreds of children, all carrying little white flags,
and behind them moved a strong body of French
troops pressing them lorward int the plain. It is
s ated tlmt these unhappy people were expelled
because there was not food for them, and that they
were thus moving forth solely to seek means of sav
ing themselves from death within tho walls. As they
approached the German lines a Prussian orderly
ordered the ou'post to fire on the mass. Thi people
advanced still, and when they came within ranje
the Prussians tired on them Still the poople nvivd
on, the man and woman in the front with the whito
flag moving more rapidly.
The man suddenly fell, struck by abullet. but the
woman, waving the flag, continued to advance,
the children meanwhile screaming mora plteonsly.
The lire of tho Prussians was kept ut deliberately
and steadily as if upon an armed column, and the
woman fell with her flag. The crowd th-iii wavered
for a moment, and then turned and lied in the most
horrible disorder, struggling, failing, ami dying,
nnd tho Prussian flro constantly growing hotter.
The French troops advancing to the, front clowi
around the helpless mass of flying citizen), and a
terrible fusilade began on both sides, and the spec
tacle became devilinh in its horror. The road was
strewn with the bodies of women and children.
The forts of Le Villeux and Les Bottes poured
shells upon the Prussians until the last fugitive had
disappeared and the French troops slowly fell back,
tli e motley crowd hurrying in ail directions, around
the city walls and the different gates. Thny trooped
from all sides through the street", and flung them
selves down, children earning bundles, and moth
ers frantic with the loss of their children. Iu the
grand plnee all night long they lay oi the pave
ments in dumb despair, to awit theVloom of famine
since averted by the capitulation.
The World correspondent forwards this story, re
ceived from his agent, sent to Mars la Haut, with
the protest agnlnsr. accepting it at probably true,
find txprcfsly to illustrate the efforts making to ex
plain the surrender of Bazaine.
London, Oct. 30. .Special to the New York Tri
bune. A correspondent at Metz to-day telegraphs
about two column, as follows:
My telegram of October 2t left the capitulation
unfinished. On the evening before tho German
chief of staff had left Frascati very much discour
aged and scarcely hoping for any agreement, as tho
French appeared intractable anil obstinate. Nevar
thiless, J know from private sources that Metz
could not hold out, and accordingly told you to ex
pect a capitulation suroiy.
At noon uazaine sen r rince i- recicncK unaries
an autograph letter, asking another conference,
and accordingly the Germans sent Gen. Steckle,
chief of staff f the Second army, and Count Wur
tensieber, chief of staff of the First army, to Fras
cstl once more. The interview lasted three hours
In the afternoon. It was stormy at first on the part
of the French commisHioners, but resulted in their
rot version to the main points of the German terms.
Tke tirst difficulty was concerning the officers keep
ing their tide arms, on which Bazaine insisted.
The point was finally ref erred to the King, and con
ceded by him in a dispatch received at 2 A. M. on
tho 27th.
By agreement the conference was resumed early
the same morning and lasted until 8 P. M., when
the capitulation was signed for the absoluto rendi
tion of Metz and all its fortifications, armaments,
stores nnd munitions, and for the surrender, as in
the Sedan conditions, cf all the garrUon and all of
Bazsine's atmv, comprising three marshsls of
Frsnce, CG generals, 6000 officers and 173,000 troops.
The Germans are astounded at the result. Au
army and fortress capitulating to an investing
army lai ger lean irseit ny only a small fraction.
When the rendition became known, the people
v ere furious. The National Guard refused to lay
down their arms, and on the afternoon of the 28th,
a dragoon captain appeared at the head of a body of
troops, who swore they would sooner die than
yield.
Albert Collignon, editor of the ultra democratic
siege daily, the Journal de Mrtz, rode about on a
wbitrf horse, tiring a pistol, and exhorting them to
rally and seek victory or death, to escape the im
pending shame. Hewts followed by a lady sing
ing the Marsellaise, which produced great excite
ment. The doors of the cathedral were burst open, and
th tocsin and death bell rung nearly all night.
When a genoral oflicer appeared to pacify them,
three phtol shots were received by him, but finally
by the aid of tw o line regiments he quietly dispersed
the mob, I ut all night sounds of grief, indignation
and terror continued.
Fesnectsble women ran about the streets, tearing
their hair and flinging their bonnets and laces under
their feet, seeking their friends, and asking wildly
what will become of onr children. Soldiers, drunk
and sober, tumbled hither and thither in irregular
groups, with their caps off and their sabres broken,
sobbing and weeping line children, and crying
"Tl ere Is no longer a France."
At four P. M. yesterday Bazaine passed through
Ars, on his way to Wilhelmshobe, in a closed car
riage marked with his nam', and escorted by sev
eral of his staff' on horses. The women of the vil
lage bsd beard of his coming, and awaiting him
saluted him with exclamations of "traitor," "cow
ard." "poltroon," "faineant," "voleur," and "bri
gand." "Where are our husbands whom you have
betrayed?" "give ns back our children whom you
have sold." They attacked the carriage, broke the
windows, and would have murdered the marshal
but for the intervention of the Prussian soldiers.
Since the time of the Investment, Bazaine has
never bet n in the camp except on extraordinary oc
casions. Never at all in the ambulances, which are
poorly constructed in numerous railroad cars, ia the
Place ltoyale, and equally seldom has he been seen
in the city. The civil power had to find him at the
Barre St. Martin.
He would not appear at the Malre once, and he
rarely said a word to encourage the troops. Oan
robert sometimes cheered their patience a little,
and then they would cry vive Canrobert and a bat
Bazaine. Towards the last he dared not, for fear
ot ast af iuation, show himself to his own men.
Tours, Oot. 29. The journals here express great
satisfaction with the decree lately issued whereby
all offences against the press law are hereafter to
be tried by Jury.
Prince Polignae, who served as a brigadier in the
confederate army, has received an appointment to
an important command in the army of Garibaldi,
and departs for the east at once.
The Journals announce that General Cambriel
has been compelled to relinquish his command in
the army of the east because of the reopening of
a wound he received at Sedan.
The telegraph wires having been cut malleously
near Orleans, the Prussians nave exacted an addi
tional tax on the town by way of punishment. In
nearly all the departments now held by the Prus
sians, influential citizens are compelled to ride on
locomotives. The Prussians have adopted this
course, which they say Is the ouly way to prevent
the tearing up of the tracks by French uoucoiu
batantB. A large number of Prusbiau prisoners
were brought here to-day.
Owing to rumors of Bazaine's capitulation, Gam
betta has itined a circular to the prefects, saying,
"I have received from all sides grve reMrts, tha
veracity of which 1 cannot establish officially. It
is said that Metz has capitulated. If so, it is well
that you should have tbe opinion of the government
on the matter. Such an event could but be tha re
sult of a crime, tbe authors uf which should bo out
lawed. Be convinced that wha'en-r may arlmi
nothing can abate our courage, and that iu the era
of last ally capitulations there cxikU one thing
which neither cud nor will capitulate, and thai is
the French Ucpublic."

Several dispatches have been received announc
ing French successes In different parts of tbe
country.
A government council was held last night, lasting
until a late hour, and the following proclamation
was issued to-day:
The French Republic Liberty, Equality and
Fraternity. Pro-laraatlon to the French people.
"Frenchmen. Raise your spirits and resolution to
the fearful height of the perils which have broken
upon the country, it still depends on ns to mount
above misfortune, and Bhow the world how great
a people may be who are resolved not to perish, and
courage increases in the midst of calamity.
"Metz has captulated. A general, upon whom
France counted, has just taken away ( Viert d'enle
tert), from the country In lt danger more than 100,
100 of its defenders. Marshal Bazaine has betrayed
us. He has made himself the agent of the man of
Sedan and an accomplice of the Invader, and re
gardless of the honor of tbe army of which he had
charge, he has surrendered, without making the
least eflbrt, one hundred and twenty thousand fight
ing men, twenty thousand wounded, gnns, cannon,
colors, and the strongest citadel of France, Metz
virgin but for him to the contamination of the
foreigner. Such a crime is above even the punish
ment of justice. Meanwhile, Freuchmen, measure
tbe depths of the abyss into which the empire baa
precipitated yon.
"For twenty years France submitted to this cor
rupting power, which extinguishes in her the
springs of greatness and of life. The army of
France, stripped of its national character, became,
without knowing it, an Instrument of tyranny and
of servitude, and is swallowed up in spite of her
soldiers by the treason of her chiefs. In the dls is
ters of tbe country, in less than two months, 25J.OO0
men have been delivered over to the enemy, the
sinister sequel to the military coup de main of De
cember. " It Is for ns to reassert ourselves, and under the
aegis of the republic, which we have determined
not to al'ow to capitulate, within or without, to
seek in the extremity of our misfortune the reno
vation of our political and social morality and
manhood. However tried by disaster, let us be
found neither panic-stricken nor hesitating; let it
be seen that we are ready for the last sacrifices,
and in the face of enemies whom everything fa
vors, let us swear never to give up so long as
there remains an inch of sacred soil under the soles
ot our feet.
"Let us bold firmly tho glorious banner of the
French revolution. Our cause is that of Jmtico
and of tight. Kurope sees it. Europj feels it. In
the presence of so many unmerited misfortunes
spontaneously receiving from us neither invitation
nor encoursgemcnt, she is moved, and she begins to
act. No illusion is now left. Let us no longer lan
guish or grow weak and let ns prove by our acts
that we can ourselves maintain honor, Independ
ence and Integrity; all that makes a country proud
and free. Long live the Republic, one ami Indi
visible! Signed, Cremleux, Glaiz Bezoin, Gau
betta. This proclamation, placarded abaut tho streets,
attracted crowds of readers and creates great ex
citement. Groups of people arc discus'in it, and
the treachery of Bazaine is denounce 1, and bitter
imprecations are uttered against the Bonapantats.
An envoy from l aiine, ho left Met, last Sun
day, arrived here to-dav, and exprcs es the utmst
ntoiiisbment at the ca pi tula: ion, but says that pro
visions were short and no salt was to bo had.
Tourr. Oct. 29, evening. There was great ex
citement here to-day owing to the report that Motz
had fallen and Bazaine capitulated. Ths first ru
mors last night were refused credit, but now if, is
krown to be true, and the people are wild and dan
gerous. There Is a division of sentiment on t'ae
news. The government loudly denounces the army
ss traitors to their country, and oponly t lire at o is
the leaders with a drumhead court martial should
they ccme to Tonrs, and declares tho surrender to
be a plot of the Kiuplre to regain pose.-ion of
power.
Cooler persons con lemn th ns-wilt on ths loy
alty of the army, and believe Baz tmo fought nobly
and only jielded to starva'ion. Many op. nly tvk
of peace and express the belief that the giv
errimeiit is mure eauer to retain power thau to save
a country from further horrors. Thero has been
more' insubordination among tho military. Tho
government Is determined to punish disobedience
to the utmost, if they posse-s the power. The re
moval of the sc at of the departments is probable.
Bkrlin, Oct. 29. The news of the capitulation
of Metz was communicated to Napjleon at Wil
helmshobe yesterday. Tbe ex-Emperor's household
Is In great suspense and consternation.
Bkulin, Oct. 29 The Kreuz Xe.il ung of to-day
says the last summons to surrender has been for
warded to the military authorities inside of the
Paris fortifications, and the bombardment of the

Versailles, Oct. 29 French volunteers, calling
themselves "Wild Boars of Ardennes," are tearing
up the railroad tracks and otherwise interfering
with the German communications. They have
thrown off' three trains tilled with lancers, and
ninny soldiers were killed and wounded.
Some Wurtumburg troops had an encounter

Moltke, on his seventieth birthday, received from
tbe King the title of Count.
Bkubskls, Oct. 29. Generals Burnslde and She
ridan and other distinguished Americans arrived

Brussels, Oct. 29 Special to the New York
Times The capitulation of Metz has thrown the
Bonapurtists into despair. This city is the grand
centre of their schemes, and the dinners at the
Ccuntess Walewski's are regular agencies of politi
cal Intrigue. Pietrle, Oonti, President l);vn line,
Mestlames Bazaine and Canrobert, Princess Met
ternich and the Princess Mathilda are all here.
The latter has taken a splendid hotel, at a rent of
$50,f00.
TLe Brussels newspapers denounce the proceed
ings of this coterie. 1 saw General Sheridan hers
yesterday. He maintains a rigid reserve as to tbe
war, and says the time has not yet coma for him t
speak. He states that the views and opinions
already published as coming from him are wholly
unauthorized. Ho has never written a line abo-it
tbe war, except confidentially. Ha leaves this
week for Italy, and perhaps Constantinople
Veuskillkh, Oct. 29.
The King of Prussia, having heretofore admitted
the right of Spain to choose her own sovereign,
holds to that admission. Germany declines to imi
tate tbe exanu le of France, by lnterf. ring with
Spain, and is ready to acknowledge any act of the
Spanish people regarding its future sovereign.
