THE TENTH STREET HORROR.
That a brutal murder should be corn's:lilted,
at an early hour of the evening, in a central
part of this city,without instant attention be
ing drawn to the act, might seem extraordi
nary. But old Mrs. Hill, the victim of the
tragedy of last Sunday, was undoubtedly
attacked suddenly, and perhaps in her sleep,
so that she had no time to make an outcry.
All the circumstances go to show that the
crime bad not been long premeditated; for the
attempt to get rid of the body was most
clumsy, and the numerous marks of blood in
the house show that the murderer or murder
ers had acted hurriedly and without previous
calculations as to the concealment of the
body.
Public opinion has decided, with apparent
unanimity, that the murder was committed
by Twitchell, with the aid and connivance of
his wife. Unfortunately for them, there is
ne other plausible theory of the murder.
There is no evidence that any other person
was in the house during the whole evening
except them and the murdered woman. The
previous history of the parties indicates that
there was ill-feeling between Mrs. Hill and
he; son-in-law. Her death might bring pe
cuniary benefits to him. The blood-stains
on his clothes and person show that he
handled the dead or dying woman betore her
pretended fall from the window, and destroy
all relianee upon his story of such a tall. The
apparent indifference of the man and his wife
to the shocking death of the old woman, even
it their story were a true one, is enough to
excite suspicion against them.
But after all, the evidence against the
arrested parties is wholly circumstantial, and
all such evidence must always be received
with.great caution. The investigation before
the coroner, this afternoon?' may develop
some new circumstances, and a more minute
testimony be fore a Grand Jury and a Petit
Jury will probably bring out others. The
prisoners are entitled to the benefit of every
doubt that can exist, and they will receive it.
In the meantime, the horrible and brutal cir
cumstances of the murder have excited an in
tense feeling in the community, which may
be said to have already prejudged the case.
The crime was cowardly, cruel and savage,
and the public demands the quick and ex
emplary punishment of the murderer or
murderers.
TILE COLLECTORS El IP.
Our Waehington correspondent to-day
strongly corroborates the remarks made yes
terday on the subject of premature slate
making. It appears that Col. Cake's.removal
has been determined on, and his successoF
selepted, and that the Senate is to be called
upon to instal a new Collector in our Custom
Rouse before General Grant has time to take
any action in the premises. This whole affair
has a very pre-arranged appearance about it,
and it looks as if Secretary McCulloch's de
mand for the removal of eleven Republican
inspectors had been made in order to make
an occasion for a quarrel and to secure Gil.
Cake's removaL Secretary McCulloch holds
long conferences with Mr. ,Srarnuel J. Ran
dall, as to the proper adjustment of Custom
House patronage: but it is to the credit of the
latter gentleman's common-sense that he
promptly accepts the results of the late elec
tion and reminds the scheming Secretary that
this is no quarrel of his.
Now we have no individual interest what
ever in the distribution of public offices. We
have no desire to get Colonel Cake out, or to
keep him in. We have no knowledge of the
qualifications or disqualifications of the indi
vidual who is suggested fiiir the place. The
principle for which we contend is a very sith
ple one, ant is in strict accordance with the
sentiment of the masses of the
Republican party. It is the principle that
General Grant shall be allowed to exercise
his own well-known faculty for putting the
right men in the right places at the right
time. It is the principle that the future sta
bility and efficiency of the Republican party
depend, in large measure, upon reforming the
whole practice of seeking and bestowing
office; upon the breaking up of all bargains
and sales for appointments; upon disbanding all
"tinge upon demolishing all "slates;" upon
bringing back something like the usages of
better days,w hen offices sought for good men,
and men were chosen to fill them because
they were worthy,honest and capable.
In the present state of affairs, the great
hope of the country is in General Grant's de
termination andability to manage the govern
ment himself. There is an immense amount
of cleverness and energy being expended in
various directions, which will prove to be a
very bad investment when the time comes for
President •Grant to take the reins..." Then it
will be found that he possesses all the sagacity
a Abraham Lincoln, without his excess of
yielding good-nature; and all the force of
will Of - Ai - drew Johnson, without his insin
(why, selfishness and treachery. Neither
Congress nor the office-seekers must
undertake tO force .upon General Grant
the appointment of this or that man or set
j of Men. He recognizes, al, clearly as any
ca oh a t "to the yktoll belong the Spoils," and
- THE DAILY ETENING . BULLETIN---PHILADELPHIA, TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 24, 1868.
there is no danger that he will place-or keep
any - btit approved Republicans in °Mee. No
man knows better, than be that the - verdict
of the country th that it , commits its affairs for
the next fotr jeers into the hands of the Rs
-:publican party. But wiihin this principle,
there is , a wine scope for 'choice, and General
Grant mat be allowed to exercise
-that choice for himself. In some
cases, his selection - Et will be in
harmony with the anticipations of those wh
are so anilously pre-arranging his Govern—
ment for him; but where his j udgment crosses
thefts, there should be a generous and volun—
tary recognition that the people have chasen
General Grant to be President of these
United States, and no one else. We simply
plead for the best interests of the Republican
party, when we urge that General Grant shall
be allowed to officer the Government in his
own time and way.
TM E UNION VAA.31 , 10 114.111.RO&D.
The special Washington correspondent of
the Ledger recites the charges which have
been brought against the Union Pacific Rail
road, and which induced the appointment of
a Special Commission to revise the work of
the Commissioners appointed by law to in
spect the road. Some of these charges are so
peculiar that they deserve notice. The
gravest charge against this great enterprise
appears to be that it is being built so rapidly.
Indeed it is soberly alleged that the Union
Pacific and the Central Pacific are actually
running a race, to see which shall have built
the most of the line, when the two meet.
It is wisely suggested that the company
which builds the most miles will
get the most lands and bonds, and this seems
to be considered as an argument why theGov
emment should withhold the subsidies. More
over, the serious charge is brought that,in get
ting over the Rocky Mountains,the road does
not run on a bee-line. "Reverse curves are
resorted to, as a means of avoiding the im
mediate building of a straight line of road,
and the structure of stone bridges, thus en—
abling the company to make extraordi
nav y headway, and locate their road
hubdrcels of miles beyond thepoint which
would have been reached" by a bee- line
across hills, valleys, gorges and ravines, and
every natural difficulty which the transit of
the Rocky Mountains presents. These are
the'principal charges which have induced
the President to send out a special Commis
sion to watch Frank Blair and his associates,
and see that they jell the truth in their re
ports.
The whole burden of the trouble appears
to be the very remarkable one that the Paci
fic Railroad is going to be finished too soon.
Measured by the old standards of railroad
building, it is undoubtedly a marvelous thing
to see two roads running out their iron arms
to clasp each other at the rate of six and
seven miles in the twenty-four hours. But
it is also a marvelous thing to see men who
have energy enough to begin and prosecute
such a work at all. It is a marvelous thing
to see twenty thousand - men, half of
them from China and half of them from
Ireland and Germany,pressing forward across
the trackless wastes of the American Con
tinent to link the iron girdle of Nineteenth
Century progress and civilization, as they
come face to face upon the soil of
isolated Utah. The whole work is a marvel
of enterprise and indomitable energy. The
only thing that could have been more mar
velous would have been to see this great
national work crawling forward at the old,
deliberate pace with which the little railroads
of the East were built.
That the'speed of the construction has not
impaired the quality of the work, has been
abundantly demonstrated. Scores of intelli
gent and impartial men, who have traversed
the road in order to sOsfy themselves and the
public, have come back thoroughly satisfied
that the company has proved its capacity to
build as well as it builds rapidly. The road,
its bridges, its culverts, its bed, its embank
ments, all betoken thoroughness and skill.
The "reverse curve" complaint is, if any
thing, more absurd than tha. of rapility in
construction.. To demand that a road should
be carried across the Black Hills in a bee-line
is to demand a most wasteful and needless
expenditure of time, labor and money. Tile
deep excavations and the lofty and numerous
bridges that would have to be 'made would
not only add enormously to the cost of the
road, and add years to the time of construc
tion, but greatly increase the liability of ob
struction to travel during the whiter months.
The engineers have wisely followed the wind
ings of the hills, which, fortunately, do not
demand a very great deviation from a direct
line, these "reverse curves" being principally
comprised within the limits of five or six
hours' t un.
We have referred to these complaints
against this magnificent national enterprise,
chiefly because they seem to rest upon an
appeal to the very spirit of old fogyism itself,
and because we have not the el i4htest doubt
that the report of the Special C immission
will re-assert the testimony of all dispassion—
ate judges, that the Union Pacific is what
Congress demands that it shall be, a " first
class road."
A trouble between the United States and
Turkey is not an inahropriate coincidence
with the Thanksgiving season. The cable
despatches say that our Minister to Constan
tinbple, Hon. E. Joy Morris, has presented to
the Porte an energetic protest against the
imprisonment of two American citizens at
Damascus. These .tw o Americans, it appears,
were charged, along with a party of English.
men, with having smuggled arms into the
interior of Syria for the purpose of over
throwing the government of the Sultan and
placing it in the hands of the Pacha, who
had just lost his succession to the Viceroyalty
of Egypt. The accused parties claim to
have been surveying a new railroad
route, and that their arms were for
the purpose of defending their em
ploy is. The ease, as thus stated, seems
very singular. 'Neither Englishmen nor
Americans,if up to the usual standard of com
mon sense, would be likely to engage in such'
a conspiracy as that suspected. At the same
time, if they were surveyibg a railroad route,
there ought to have been no mystery or doubt
about their movements, and no reason to
suspect them of any ulterior designs. The
adventurous spirit of the Anglo-BAxon race
has often brought trout* and expense upon
the governments of Great Britain and the
United States, one of the latest illustrations
being the costly war _against King Theodore
last year. Our troubles of this kind have
arisen chiefly from filibustering expeditions
to Meireo or the West Indies. If the party
lately seized in. Syria were filibustering, they
deserve to suffer. But - -Abe' action of Mr.
.Morris indicates that ,there is another tide to
the story, and we , await this With some in
tired.

LETTER VEO3I THE CAPTAIN-GMZEILAI, OF Cr BA.
The following l an ettraetfrom a letter from
the Captain-General of Cnba to a gentleman in
New York:
• * In the name of my nation and of its
Government I have to tender the most sincere
thanks, and beg to express the security with
which I anticipate the practical continuation of
your good determinations, and I will leave no
means untried to prove to the great American
nation the gratitude awakened in the Spanish
character for the noble manner in which ittas
strengthened the binds uniting both countries by
impeding adventurers and piratical
exyeditlons against this island. The
high principles which govern the
relations of civilized countries to which I
have done homage recently by expelling from
this Island Gen. Santa Anna, when informed of
his conspir'ng against the Government
of Mexico, although not in diplomatic
relations with the Republic—are re
spected now, as they always have been,
by the Government of tee United titates. - It
gives me pleasure to acknowledge it thus, and I
shall feel it an honor if able to - contribute to the
justice due that great nation in the pages of his
tory, and also to the blessing which men of all
nations call down upon it.
I take advantage of this oppoitunity to offer
you the sympathy, appreciation, and considera
tion with which I subscribe myself your obedient
servant, FRANCISCO LERsUNDI
Havana, Nov. 14, 1868.
The Revolutionary JuanVs Story.
Ila.vaiga, Nov. 14,—The Spanish steltiner Pe
lay° has Just arrived from Nuevitas and Santiago
de Cuba, and by her we have received special
despatches from our chief, Gen. Cespedes, and
a copy of the Official Patriot Gazette, published
by the Provisional Cuban Government at Bay
amo, the present headquarters of the Patriot
army under Gen, Cespedes. The patriots are
within lour miles of Santiago do Cuba; the town
itself is in a state of revolt, and assault from the
patriots outside is hourly expected; 127 of
the principal families had embarked for
Jamaica. General Cespedes has pub
lished in his official paper, the Inde
pendent Cuhan,a proclamatien in answer to Count
Balmasedas' proclamation giving the Patriots
eight days to surrender. In the proclamation all
"Peninsularts," or native-born Spaniards, are
ordered to leave the territory occupied by the
Patriots within 24 hours. All Cubans be_tween
the ages of 18 and 45, aro called trpott-to-Mke up
arms for the independme.of Cuba. The coin
rouelcations by railroad and telegraph between
Nuevitas and. Puerto Principe have been de
stroyed by the Patriots. A freight train carrying
the American breech-loaders, (ex. steamer
Columbian shipped to Nuevitas and St. Moe
ternma) was thrown off the track by the removal
of some rails, and in the confusion that ensued
400 Patriots attacked the train and carried or
the arms. Col. Queros's column returned to Caba
thoroughly disorganized and reduced to half its
original number; the men bad been without food
for three days. The roads between Puerto Prin
cipe and Tunas aro entirely in the possession of
the Patriots, .who guard them so vigilantly that
not a single_G_avernment Courier has been able to
pass. The Independent Cuban announces the arri
val in the Patriot th - mp of 200 riflemen from
St. Domingo, men who a few years agO
fenght against Spain on their native soil. Gen.
Cespeclee'a army,riumbered on,the 29th of October,
9;700 men, and has since largely increased. The
mother of Secundino Bermuders, one of the
Cubans arrested in this city, requested that ber
son might bo imprisoned in one of the fortresses,
Instead of the common prison. She received for
answer that her request could riot be granted'as
the cells in the fortresses were all full. Sullen of
the Pais (Cuban newspaper) and Francisco
Valdes Aguine were.both arrested yesterday.
Liberty and Independence! By order of the
Revolutionary Junta in session in the City of
Havana the 14th day of November, 1868.

[From the N. Y. Herald ct tcrday.l
Nov. 23.—There Is a return of steadiness and buoyancy
to the stock market as a conserptenew of the elimination
of Erie. Flicee to-dez maintained an equthimity la face
of eery money. which is an unedstakeble sign that a
beelthier tone him been imparted to business by thud e
estrous effects of the wild themelation pr valling within
the part two months, Tranertetiour to-day were Cautious
yet active, but without enthuelamx.. Thu ques-i'm of
eti Mug the stock of • the Erie Ra'lwav
Company from the stork list came before
the respectivecommittrenof.ench.board, but was put
ported re Wednesday next for further consideration The
petition is Min th.circulation and has received a large
addition of eignaturee. it is also anggeeted to have the
storks of other-corporations likewise seghtered as a con
di'', oto their continushee on the stock. lilt. The legal
proceedings in the-Erie case create a great d ,al
of 'lamest, And ' a rumor is afloat to
night that the clique are conveying their pacers
and effects acro-e the river to Jertey City. The ate zlc
iv es almost r.,eglected to-day. 'l'he few trantactiona in
it took place between 4014 and 493.5. The demonstrations
nerd at otherstocks by the clique have fallen through.
When it became known that they were almost without
money and Were finable. to dispose of the
load of Erie in their tin boxes • the street was
quick to perceive that they were powerless to
leak. any new rneveiurnt, and consequently abet.-
cloned these stocks n bleb were supper.- d to he on the pro
gramme for a "corner," The favorable condition of the
wooer market. ae etwasn by the bank sdatementis stimu
lating eeeculation. and a' "hull" market for stock.. is
pro; boiled. As yet this feeling 11 not without restraint.
and the rise fn stocks to-day is not cotomen-urate with
the cone in money. The business at all the boards was
well distributed over the general list.
Gold opened weak at 1344 and declined to lat. The
government rale bereft the market of strength. After
twelve o'clock there was a sudden recovery in the price
to 1341: en account of this firmness of exchange. There
was also a sudden impetus given to the b'r
rowing &mend, and the . rate clamed
from flat and one and. two per cent to 1-64
and 1.33. A (ter the board the price yielded. but recov.
eted shout five o'clock. when the quotation stood 13411 ii
134;14. The govenwr•eat gold brought 13384, The groan
-clearings were 8.38240.010 .the staid balances $L461.482 and
the currency balances 81.071.0.4—which figures evince
the general d Wipers of the market.
Money continued easy at five and six per cent. It was
la te be
a h e ad in abundance at the latter rate on ordinary col
oda.
The government market was strong and active
throughout the day, partially in consequence o f •
Jame borne demand and partially on account of a large
inquiry from the bland of (Alba where, on account of the
unsettled state of political affairs. our nationtl securities
and particularly the -reetistered bombe, have smddenly
become favorites. 'the home - demand was
largely augmented by a "covering ^ on the
part of "shortie'. who had sold during the late
crisis. There le a considerable diversion to them of idle
money watch the earners hesitate to embark on the stock
mayket, while the feeling prevails that the appreciation
which should have succeeded the election - of General
Grant- but which was intermitted by the stringency cf
the money market. is now at hand. Not that the appre
ciation on this account can amount to a great deal. for it
