The troops had two killed and seven wounded; insurgent loss unknown. No taxpayer or householder of Valen? cia took part in the revolt. In many of the streets where barricades were erected, or where resist? ance was offered to the advance of the troops, the walls are marked, "Here stood Valencia." The final attack would have been made early in the week had the troops not been obliged to walt for ammunition. The capture of Valencia has had a tranquillizing effect all over the country. Official reports state that only a few remnants of dispersed bands are now roaming through the provinces. MADRID, October 20. At Valencia, after the capitulation, the troops were fired upon. The troops returned the fire. Hostilities were resumed, and fighting continued at latest advices. LONDON, October 18. The Times to-day has an article on General Prim. The writer admits that Prim is not a man of transcendent genius, but has depth, coolness and boundless ambition. He has an army in his hands, and intends to keep lt as long as Spain is without a King. None can wrest from Prim the sword, which ls the real sceptre of Spain. Prim sees this, and ls resolved that no King shall pre? side over Spam but one of his own making, or un? der his influence, and, above all, no Montpensier, whom he has always opposed. It U not easy or hardly desirable to break through an arrange? ment which places in Prim's hands the virtual sovereignty. If Prim is disposed to make good use or his victory, let him introduce, not impro? vident clemency or inordinate liberty, but true order, based on legality. The Suez Canal-More Troops for Cuba Earl Derby. PARIS, October 20. Two International committees have met at Cairo to regulate the conditions of the Suez Canal transportation. MADRID, October 20.

The College building at Cincinnati, containing Lowe's College, the Young Men's Mercantile Li? brary, the Chamber of Commerce, and several stores and offices, is on fire. News is received of the massacre of twelve of the surveying party under Captain Buck, on the Republican River. The Indians captured a mail coach neal- Apache Pass, killing the driver. Col? onel Stone, with soldiers of the 2lst Infantry, act? ing as escort, pursued the Indians and killed twelve._ FATHER HYACINTHE. Mia Arrival In New York-HI? Demean, or and Future Movement?-Letters from the Superior of hi* Order, dee. Father Hyacinthe arrived in New York on Monday, in the steamer Periere, from Havre. The Hon. Fernando Wood was a fellow passen? ger and extended many attentions to him dur? ing the voyage, which was very agreeable and pleasant. The distinguished preacher pro? ceeded very quietly to the Fifth Avenue Hotel, where he will remain in seclusion, it is said, for ten days, and will then visit Boston and Washington. At the expiration of his two months' visit to this country, he will proceed to Rome to seek admission to the (Ecumenical Council. He brought letters of Introduction to General Dix and Rev. Henry Ward Beecher, and is a personal friend of the poet LongteUow and other distinguished gentlemen in this country. He does not speak the English lan? guage. Report says he will be waited upon by deputations from various denominational so? cieties, and requested to explain his views of Roman Catholicism before their congregations. The French papers by the same steamer bring the letters from the superior of the Barefooted Carmelites to Father Hyacinthe, which are given below. The first of these let? ters, dated July 22, appears to have determin? ed the publication of Father Hyacinthe's letter of September 20. The second, dated Septem? ber 26, ls his superior's reply. The letters do not Indicate the precise character of the utter? ances by which the eloquent preacher Incurred the displeasure of his order, though they leave no donbt of his present attitude toward the Church of which he has been such a distin? guished member. It seems that there has been no actual interference with his preach? ing, and no formal complaint that in the pul? pit at any rate he was at all heterodox. But he has repeatedly been found mult with dur? ing the past five years for letters, addresses, Ac., to political and other clubs, and as re? monstrance seems to have had no effect, the general of the Carmelites at last forbade him to publish any letters or discourses, to deliver any address, except in church, or to take part in any meeting not strictly religious and., Catholic. It was on receipt ol' this order that Father Hyacinthe determined to leave the convent, and wrote the letter which has caused so much stir. The superior's letters arc as follows: ROME, July 22,1869. My Very Reverend Father Hyacinthe-1 have received your letter of the 9th Instant, and in a short time after the speech which you deUvcred at the Peace League. I have not, happily, found in that speech thc heterodox phrase attributed to you. lt must bc said, however, that it con? tains some vague propositions, admitting of unfortunate interprei??ons, and that such a speech does not come well iTc.m a .mon*- Tue habit of the Carmelite waa certain.? there no longer In its place. My reverend father am. ?ear friend, you know the great interest I have always taken in yon. From the commencement of your sermons at Notre Dame de Paris, I have earnestly exhorted you not to identify yourself with ques? tions in dispute among Catholics and on which all were not agreed. Because, from the mo? ment you attach yourself ostensibly to one side your ministry became more or less unfruitful with the other. Now, it ls patent that you have made no account of the Intimation of your father and superior, as last year you wrote ? letterto a club m Paris in which you freely disclosed your opin? ions m favor of a party, having little wisdom, and In opposition with the sentiments of the Holy Father, thc episcopacy, and the clergy tn general. 1 was alarmed, as were also the French clergy. 1 wrote to you Immediately to enable yon to see the false path you had entered on In order to stop you. But in vain, for some months after you au? thorized from yourself a periodical review in Ge? noa to publish another letter, that has been the cause of so much vexation to you and me. Lastly, during your last sojourn at Rome I made you seri? ous observations and even rather strong re? proaches on the false position you were placed La on account of your imprudence, but you had scarcely arrived ut Paris when you> published, under your own signature, a letter deplore? by ali even by your friends. Lately your presence and speech at the Peace League have caused as great scandal in Catholic Europe as happened about six years ago, on the occasion of your speech at a meeting In Paris. You have, beyond doubt, given some reason for such recriminations by some bold, obscure and imprudent phrases. 1 have done all that I could up to the present to defend and save you. To-day I must think of the interests and honor of our Holy Order, which, unknown to yourself, you compromise. You write me from Paris, November 19, 1868: "I avoid mixing the Paris Convent and thc Order of Mount Carmel with these matters." Let mc say to you, my dear father, that this is an illu? sion. You are a monk, and bound to your supe? riors by solemn vows. We have to answer for you before God and man, and consequently have to take the same measures In your regard as in that of other monks, when your conduct is preju? dicial to your soul and our order. Already. In France, Belgium.aud even here, some of thc bishops, clergy, and faithful aro blaming the superiors of our order for not taking certain measures in your regard, and it is concluded that there ls no authority In our congregation, or that it shares in your opinions and course of action. I do not certainly regret the course I have fol? lowed, up to the present, In regard to you, but matters are arrived at such a point that I would compromise my conscience and the entire order if 1 do not take more efficacious measures in this matter than I have done in the past. Consider, therefore, dear and reverend father, that you are a monk, that you have made solemn vows, and that by the vow of obedience you are bound to your superiors by a Hen as strong as that which binds the ordinary priest to his bishop. 1 can, therefore, no lquger tolerate your continuing to compromise the entire order by your speeches or writings, no more than I can tolerate our holy habit appearing at meetings that are not in har? mony with our profession as Barefooted Carme? lites. Therefore, in the Interest of your soul and of our holy order, I order you formally, by this present, not La the future to print any letters or speech; to speak outside the churches; to be pre? sent at the Chambers; to take part m the Peace League, or any other meeting which has not an exclusively Catholic and religious object. I hope you will obey with docility and even with love. Now, let me speak to you with an open heart, as a father to a son. I see you entered on au extremely dangerous path, which, despite vour present intentions, may conduct you to where to? day yon may .' plore to arrive. Arrest yourself, then, my dear son; near xne voice 01 your miner and friend, who speaks to you with a heart bro? ken .w ith sorrow. With this view you would do weil to reti? to one of the convents in the Pro? vince, of Avignon, there to repose yourself, and perform the retreat which I dispensed you from last year on aocount of your duties. Meditate in solitude on the great truths of religion, not to preach them, hut for the profit of your soul. Ask light from Heaven, with a contrite and humble heart. Address yourself to the Holy Virgin, to our father, St. Joseph, and to our seraphic moth? er, St. Theresa. A rather can well address these words to his son, although he be a great orator. It is a very serious question for you and for us all. I pray to thc Saviour that he may deign to accord yon His light and '/race. I recommend myself to yonr prayers, and give you my benediction, and I am your very humble servant, FR. DOMINIQUE DE SAINT JOSEPH, Superior-General. The reply of Father Hyacinthe-a reply which he seems to have deeply pondered over before trusting it to paper-dated the 20th of September, has already been published to the world, and its contents are therefore suffi? ciently well understood. To this letter the superior-general replied on the 26th ultimo, expressing his deep affliction at the continued frowardness of Father Hyacinthe. His letter is as follows : ROME, September 26. Reverend Father-Your letter of the 20th only reached me yesterday. You will easily Imagine how deeply it afflicted me, and with what bitter? ness it filled my soul. I was far from expecting yon to fall to such a depth. Therefore my heart bleeds with grief, and is filled with an immense pity for you, and I raise my humble supplications to the God of all mercies that He may enlighten you, pardon you, and lead you back from that de? plorable and fatal path on which you have en? tered. It is very true, ray reverend father, that during the lost five years, in spite of my personal opinions, which are in general contrary to yours on many religious questions-as I have more than once expressed to yon-in spite of the counsels I have given to yon on several occasions relative to your preachings, and to which, excepting In the caso*?of your Lent sermons at Rome, you paid but little attention, so long as you did not openly depart from the limits Imposed by Christian prudence on a priest, and especially ou a monV, l always manifested toward you senti? ments of esteem and friendship, and encouraged you in your preachings. But li that ls true so also Is it that, from the moment In which I perceived that you were beginning to go beyond these lim? its, 1 was forced to begin on my side to express to yon my fears, and to mark to you my dissatis? faction. You must remember, my revered fa? ther, that I did so especially last year, about the month of October, when passing through France, relative to a letter addressed by you to a club in Paris. I then expressed to you what annoyance that writing had caused me. Your letters pub? lished in Italy were also very painful to mc, and also drew on you from me observations and re? proaches when you last visited Rome. Lastly, your presence aud your speech at the Peace League filled up the measure of my apprehension and my grief, and forced me to write to you the let? ter of the 22d of July last,by which I formally order? ed you In future not to print any letter or speech, to speak in public elsewhere than in the churches, to be present in the Chambers, or to take part In the Peace League, or any other meeting, the ob? ied of which was not exclusively Catholic and re? ligious. My prohibition, as you see, did not in the least refer to your sermons in the pulpit. On the contrary, I desired yon In future to devote solely and entirely your talents and your eloquence to teachings in the church. Con? sequently, it was with painful surprise that I read in your letter that "you could not reascend the pulpit at Notre Dame, with language pervert? ed by dictation or mutilated by reticence." You must be aware, reverend father, that I have never forbidden you to preach, that I have never given you any order or imposed any restrictions on your teachings. I only took the liberty of giving to you some counsels, and on addressing to you some observations, especially on the subject of your last lectures, as In my quality of Superior it was my right and my duty to do. You were, con? sequently, os free to continue your preachings at Paris or elsewhere, as in preceding years, before my letter of the 22d July last; and if you have re? solved not to reappear In the pulpit of Notre Dame de Paris, lt is voluntarily and of your own free will, and not by virtue of measures adopted by mc toward you. Your letter of thc 20th announces to mc that you are about to leave your monastery In Paris. I leam, indeed, by the journals and by private letters, that you have already left it, and have cast on* your gown without any ecclesiasti? cal authorization. If the fact ls unfortunately true, I would remark to you, ray reverend father, that you must be aware that the monk who quits his monastery and the dress of ids order, without the regular permission from thc competent au? thority, ls considered as a real apostate, and consequently Incurs the canonical penal? ties mentioned in Cap. pericutoso. The punish? ment U, as you are aware, the greater excommu? nication, lata: sentential; and according to our constitutions, confirmed by the Holy See, part Ul, chapter xxxv No. 12, those who leave the com? munity without authorization Incur thc greatest excommunication, ipso jacto nnd the note of In? famy. Qui a conqregatione recedunt, prater apostasiam, ipso facto excommunlcaUotiem et infamio ?winni incuiTttnt. As your superior, and in accordance with the prescriptions of the apostolic decrees, which order me to employ even censure to bring you back to the bosom of thc order yon have so deplorably abandoned, I am under the necessity of calling on you to return to the monastery In Paris which you have quitted, within ten days from the date of the present let I ter, observing to you that if you do not obey this order within the time stated yon will be deprived canonically of all the charges you hold in thc Or? der of Barefooted Carmelites, and will remain under the censure estabished by the common law and by our roles. May you, my reverend father, listen to our voice and to the cry* of y?ur conscience; may you promptly and seriously de? scend within yourself, see the depth of your fall, and by an heroic resolution manfully recover yourself, repair the great scandal you have caus? ed, and by that means console thc church, your mother, you have so much afflicted. That ls thc most sincere and ardent desire of my heart; it ls also that which your afflicted friends and my? self, your father, ask, with all thc fervor of our souls, of Qod Almighty, of God, so full of mercy and goodness. FR. DOMINIQUE r*? SAINT JOSEPH. MEETING OF COUNCIL. Trial of the City Sheriff-The Barri? cade Smasher Drank '.gain-Th< City Sheriff Removed from Office.

Averill the Flour Inspector, because Council had forn I declared that he was never Flour Inspector. Alderman T. J. Mackey said thc point was taken, and changed the resolution so as to ; "the late alleged Flour Inspector." Alderman Geddings desired that the bond mltted be retained on file, and not returnee thc resolution provided lt should be. Alderman T. J, Mackey said he would offer i J substitute to thc second resolution, "that J pretended bond and communication he recd as information." Thc resolutions were then adopted. Alderman E. W. M. Mackey asked if there a communication from Mr. E. C. Tharin, moved that if there was such, it be read. Alderman E. P. Wall seconded the motion was carried, and the communication read.

Mr. Miles announced that he was counsel fo the accused, who was ready to proceed. He thei said that as the laws of the State required that ; party accused must be tried by a Jury, he woul< submit thc law regulating the drawing of a jury which provided that no man who was prejudice* against the accused could be drawn, and he de sired to know If Council would comply with tin law in this case. Alderman Mackey contended that the law did not apply to this case, as Council sat not only as a Jury but as Judges, and If the prisoner was al lowed the right under the law to challenge, he would be able not only to destroy the jury, hui trie c-um t noun.2ii uv, m iwuwus.vu, . ?UHV the exception of the counsel bc overruled. Mr. Miles asked that Council should apply to Its members the simple test that no one should sit in Judgment who was prejudiced against the accused. The motion to overrule the request of counsel was pct and carried. At this point Alderman Barrow returned. George- Addison, City Sheriff pro tem., was called and sworn. He stated that he had served as City Sheriff for three months, and was now City Sheriff pro tem. ; that he had examined the records of his predecessor and found any amount of executions unsatisfied, and also In thc books were recorded many executions running back several years, and marked unsatisfied. Alderman Barrow got up again, was called to order several times, but after stating that he was a citizen, an Alderman, and a representative of the Republican party, and was not giving an "after dinner entertainment," as was suggested by Alderman T. J. Mackey, was ruled out of or? der by the Mayor. Alderman T. J. Mackey said that to proceed with the trial it was necessary to remove all ob? structions, and if Alderman Barrow continued to make himself an obstruction he would have to be removed. Alderman Barrow was allowed to proceed with his drunken harangue until the five minutes al? lowed for an Alderman to speak had expired. Alderman Barrow rose again, bin upon being told by thc Mayor to take his seat or he would have to put him out of the hall, Barrow took his seat, remarking with an "injured-Innocence" air, "well, put me out." Alderman Holloway moved that Alderman Bar? row have leave to renew lila motion to retire for fifteen minutes. Alderman Barrow. I do not wish lt. I should not be called to order. I appeal from the Mayor's decision, and call for the yeas and nays. [Laugh? ter.] The City Sheriff pro tem. resumed, and testified that his opinion was that owing to the neglect of his predecessor the city had suffered considerable loss; a number of the executions were against men living In thc city now, and were men of means. Alderman Barrow, after attempting to ask a question and being called to order, sat down to reduce lt to writing. He got up again and the Mayor ordered him to bc seated and cease talk? ing. He refused, and the Mayor ordered him to leave the room, which he did not do, but made an appeal from the decision of the Mayor. Alderman E. W. M. Mackey seconded thc ap? peal. Thc vote was taken and Council sustained the Mayor. At the conclusion of thc testimony of Addison, Alderman T. J. Mackey asked Mr. Guerry If he had given bond to the city subsequent to Decem? ber, 1866, to which he replied th at he had given one in 18C6 and in 1862 also. In response to questions from Mr. Miles, Mr. Guerry gave satisfactory reasons why the execu? tions marked unsatisfied were unsatisfied, show lng clearly that he was unable to satisfy them. Mr. Tlioraas, treasurer of the city, testified that he had been treasurer or assistant treasurer for a number of years, and Mr. Guerry had always made his returns punctually and properly. Thc testimony was here closed and the argu? ments commenced. After the arguments of Mr. Miles and Alderman T. J. Mackey, the latter moved that Council retire to deliberate. Alderman E. W. M. Mackey seconded the mo? tion, and lt was carried. Council then retired to the Mayor'R office. During the absence of Council the audience amnsed themselves lu various ways; some smoked, two or three whistled or hummed "Dixie," and others puffed cigar smoke in the face of Lafayette Woolf alias Lion, who was asfeep. After an absence of about three quarters of an hour Council returned to thc chamber. The Mayor then announced that when thc ques? tion was asked in secret session whether thc evi? dence was sufficient to Justify thc removal of^je City Sheriff twelve had voted that lt was, and four that lt was not. Alderman T. J. Mackey then Introduced the following resolutions, which were adopted : Resolved, By the Mayor and Aldermen of Charleston, In City Council assembled, That Peter C. Guerry, City Sheriff, bc and he ls hereby re? moved from office, the City Council having decid? ed, after a full hearing of the case, that there arc sufficient causes for his removal, and more than nine members of Council having voted for such removal. Resolved, That thc managers in this cu -e bc discharged. On motion of Alderman E. P. Wall, Council then adjourned, and the members proceeded to refresh themselves with some food and bitters pro? vided in an adjoining room. Tribute of Respect. OFFICE SOUTH WESTERN RAILROAO BANK, I y?

C._septl lyr pf TUE GREAT VITALIZED- TIHS title may be fairly given to a restorative which has taken precedence of ail other tonic and al? terative preparations for a period of nearly twen? ty years. During that long Interval HOSTET TER'S STOMACH BITTERS may be truly said to have enjoyed unrivalled popularity. Many prep? arations have been got up to compete with lt, but tlioy have all fallen into Its wake or sunk into oblivion for lack of patronage. From the first, this now world-rcnownod Vegetable Tonic has been both medically and financially success? ful. Every year has added to thc number of its friends, and the demand for it, based solely upon the experimental proofs of its excellence as a pre? ventive and curative, seems to hove no assign? able limit. Thc medical profession sanction and approve Its use, and it ls now at the head of thc class of medicines to which it belongs, the ad? mitted, undisputed sovereign tonic of the age. The statistics of the United States Revenue De? partment will verify the statement that it stands alone and unapproached lu the magnitude of its sales as compared with those of any other pro? prietary remedy advertised on this side of the At? lantic. Thc explanation of this fact may be comprised in a few words. HOSTETTER'S STOMACH BIT? TERS is at once the purest, the safest and the most potent of all vegetable tonics, and the best antidote to every variety of malarious disease. Hence lt is especially adapted to the present sea? son of chilling dews and unwholesome vapors. OCtl8 6QAC_ pf A BUSY MAN IS A LOCOMOTIVE, and life a track. Every night he drives into "the house" and stops. Every morning he is fired up anew, and away he goes switching ort" in one di? rection and then in another. In this routine of business, he forgets that the physical organiza? tion ls of the most delicate kind. If a hard iron locomotive needs constant care, and to be well oiled up and rubbed off every day, how much more necessary is it that all men and women should use PLANTATION BITTERS, which are the ne plus ultra of everything which Ls necessary to keep thc system in a perfect tone of health.
