F-oroigti AfltHn. MADRID,,October 15.-A Republican inBtirreotion ba? broken ont among the troops garrisoning the arsenal at Ferrol, in the Province of Corunna. The Go? vernment has despatched a force of troopB to the town, and summary mea? sures will be nt once adopted to suppress the revolt, 1,500 men belonging to the garrison pf : the arsenal of the town, to? gether with a portion of the naval coast guard and some of the population, were joined in tho movement. The loaders of the revolt are Montijo and Rojas. The troops in tho fortress at Ferrol refuse to join the insurrectionists and are holding out against them, awaiting the arrival of reinforcements despatched to the town by the Government. Tho combined force, it is believed, will be amply suffi? cient to suppress the revolt Details of the revolutionary ontbreak say that the garrison of the fortress and the orewof the Spanish war steamer Majaredo continue to withstand ^ the . overtures of tba rebels, and remained faithful to the Government. Notwith? standing this the insurgents had suc? ceeded in gaining possession of the gun? boats which were anchored in the harbor. They also obtained possession of the light-house, and imprisoned the keeper. By '. these. moans thoy have closed thc port, BO that the Government reinforce? ments cannot reach the place by' sea. The Alphous/istaand Republican deputies disavow any oomplioity of their partisan) with ih) movement, and, declare theil sympathy with ; tho .Government ai against the' inonrrcotionista.

Ia one oolumn the Chicago Post syn ot the Georgia victory as an ino tau ci the Dutoh taking Holland, and in other column it accounts for the Libi majority by saying that the Grant vol were Ku Kluxed. If the editor of Post keeps on at this rate he will s be mixing his statements as often ai mixes bis drinks. - A Bor li ti despatch says that a flee fine' German mon-of-war is now bc fitted out for a omiso around the wo The1 expedition will be auder the o maud of Admiral Werner, will sail reotly for tho West Indies and thc will prooeed to New Orleans and o ports in tho United States. , A second adventist of Maino, C broth by name, has written to this to request that his pension be etor because, in view of his belief in the mediate end of tho world, he cai longer rooonoilo his ooosoienoe to ooive "the price of blood." Happy thought by a cheap shirtm on his own workwomen: "They c like shadows, sow, depart!" THU ^RPBS?AN MOVEMENT TOWARDS CHINA. -^The lntoet mail from . british India, under date of September 8,. sup plies evidence of the fact that the BOB sianImperial ruler still turns his eyes iu the direction of the fertile territory of the Mongolian people, which lies adja? cent to his own. We are told that four officers of the Russian army, attended by an escort of twelve meo, had just visited Yarkand, ia Chinese Turkestan, where they were favorably reoeived by the Governor, ?taliq Ghazi. The Rus? sians had a look over the rich and ex? tensive plain by which they were sur? rounded, and departed quietly and sud? denly SB they came. Such movements do not escape thu notice of the officials of the Chinese empire proper. The same press files from India tell us that Chinese officers and troops were busily engaged in repairing and re-arming the Taku fortH, and we are made aware gene? rally of the fact that an uneasy feeling of apprehension of war prevails among tho military men who serve the Chinese Emperor. The subject is quite intereat iog, and the military-diplomatic stra 1 tegy of the great empires of China and Rueda well worth the constant attention of the great outside powers of the world, more particularly that of the commercial populations of the United States aud Great Britain.-New York LTerald. The Pope County troubles appear to be at last settled. Here is what the Lit? tle Rock Gazelle, of Wednesday, says: "Notwithstanding the Journal aud those who stand behind it have done all in their power to force a conflict in Popo County whioh would necessitate a declaration of martial law there, and denounced Judgo English and Col. Clark as minstrels for consenting to visit the County and en I deavor to bring about peace, we are happy to state that the glad tidings reach us of a settlement of all the troubles. Dodson has not only resigned as Sheriff, but himself aud Hickox have declined the minstrel nominations for Sheriff and Clerk of tbe County. The militia are to bo disbanded at once, a new man is to be sent to tbe County as Sheriff, the Cirouit Court will progress with business as formerly, and every? thing will be quiet. Gen. Upbam, Lieut. Groves and about eight members of the guards came down yesterday." The Meridian Gazelle, of Ootober ll, says: "Col. T. W. Price, of Wiloox County, Ala., an aged and respeoted citizen, ha? been arrested by Federal authority, dragged from his home aud carried to Mobile. Some months ago, Gol. Price was- elected Judge of the Court of Quarter Session, over an in? famous carpet-bagger named Colton, who contested the election and Was tho? roughly discomfited. Cotton's next step was to trump up a charge against Prioe of violation of the eleotion laws, and have him arrested as above stated. Be? fore proceeding to Mobile with the pri? soner, .a proposition was mada to bim to the effect that if he would relinquish his claim to the office of Judge, the prose? cution of the charges would be dropped. This Judge Price indignantly spumed, and he was conveyed to Mobile in charge of tbe United StateB Marshal." WHERS "THE INTIMIDATION" REALLY Is.-While, like the wolf in the fable, the Grant men are crying out that the Southern lamb will muddy the stream their silent master is practically attempt? ing "intimidation" wherever be oan. Here is the latest instance: In North Carolina, fifty citizens of Pitt County, , in charge of United StateB Deputy Mar? shal Franois, were brought before United Stutes Commissioner Robinson, at Golds- j boro,.on Monday, on the charge of ob- , strnoting Commissioner Cox and Mar- , shal Roach. After a long and patient hearing, the cases were all dismissed by the Commissioner. Tbe work of intimi- , dation goes on, but behind it is the in? tense indignation of the people at these , unjust arrests. Tho same result has just been reaohed at Atlanta, where the over jealous Farrow tried a similar experi? ment. "Let ns have peace." THE L. N. FEWELL TRIAL.-lu conse? quence of the Presidential eleotion which comes off on Tuesday, the trial of L. N. Fowell was set for Wednesday of the No? vember County Court, instead of Mon? day, as was first understood. This will give witnesses and others who have to attend the trial an opportunity to vote on Tuesday before oomiog to court. [Manassas Gazelle. A recent writer says of the extraordi? nary dryness of the olimate of tho Ar? gentine Republic: "A bowl of water left uncovered in the morning is dry at night; ink vanisbes from the inkstand as if by magic; the bodies of dead ani? mals dry up instead of decomposing, and neither exercise nor exposure to the sun's rays produces perspiration." A despatch from Bucharest says that in consequence of the continued persecu? tion of the Jewish residents by tho na? tive citizens, large numbers of the form? er are leaving the country daily. A band of Jewish emigrants, numbering several hundred, have left for the United States, where they intend making their future homes. A serious riot took placo in Constanti? nople on Wednesday last between Turks and Persians, during which the troops wero called out and fired into the Per? sian party, killing three and wounding thirty. Fivo of tho soldiers were in? jured. Tho Persian quarter of the city was greatly exoited, aud there were foars of "a geoeral m ass aero."

Thc A r Linns un Horrors, Having jnet returned from Osceola, Arkansas, lam enabled to send a state? ment of the impending troubles at that point. The town of Osoeola contains some GOO inhabitants, live dry gooda stores, seven retail groceries or grog? shops, and several dozen trading resi? dents of various kinds. These are what are left by the tornado which swept over the place two weeks ago, and' destroyed some twenty houses, including a ohuroh and three store-houses, with their con? tents. Osceola is the County seat of Missouri County, Arkansas, and is on the Missouri Hiver, ninety milea above this city. The surrounding country ia swampy, and the settlement, except an occaeioual cotton or farm plantation of several hundred acres, is rather a wild region. Except by river, there is no communication with the place from this city, and it has neither railroad nor tele? graph station, though there is a regular landing for steamers. Tho inhabitants, except those who own farms, are of au illiterate type, such aa generally reside in a newly-Bettled country. For the past six years, the County officials have been of the stripe of the followers of ex-Gov. Clayton and his doctrines. Their eleva? tion to office was entirely due to the ne? groes and ignorant whites. Property and land-owners have had no vote in the eleotion of officials, and a split in tho dominant party in tho State gave the Liberals some hope of ohanging the political situation, and eventually secur? ing a loss bated set of County officials. The principal leaders of the faction were Murray, the Sheriff of Missouri County, and Fitzpatrick, the County Register. The latter is a bold, bad, erratic mun, oi violent prejudices, a carpet-bagger from Kentucky, and a confirmed Radical. Ia a public discussion of local politics, some six weeks ago, he denounced She? riff Murray, whom he afterwards shot and killed in an altercation, which brought great denunciation down on him. He was a Liberal or "brindle tail," and popular with the people. Fitzpatrick was an extremist, with onlj negroes for associates, and oonsiderablt feeling was engendered by hia killing ol Murray, which waa by somo regarded ir tho light of self-defence, that officia having commenced the assault that re eulted in bis death. Fitzpatrick wai soon released under bonds to appear a the succeeding term of oort. A short time since Colonel Gouso Liberal candidate for Congress, visit?e Osceola to speak on the political issues Fitzpatrick met him and asked to bi permitted to "divide time." Goose de dined to recognize him, and was com polled to leave tho place, because Fitz patriok declared he would break up hi meeting by getting np an oppositioi meeting a few hundred yards distant Bad feeling was increased by this cir oumstance, and some threats were mad by both factions. List Tuesday waa th appointed time for the County court t be held. Judge Palmer, of Helena, wa appointed special Judge in the absenc of Judge Stephenson, who had gone o to settle the Popo County trouble, i uompany with W. H. Clayton, brothe to Senator Powell Clayton, aud prosecu ing attorney for tho circuit; also seven members of the bar. He arrived i Osceola by steamer from this oity ear] on Tuesday morning. It waa soon pa pablo that trouble waa brewiog, an when the Judge opened court ho foan that all tho jurors aud witaesses wei armed. Daring tho morning session of tl court a party of armed white men, sou twenty in number, marched into tr. place and stacked artus in a store. Thc stated that they desired to protect tl court and jurors from attack or intim dation by bodies of armed negroes who Fitzpatrick was known to have 1 u rki ii in the neighborhood. An armed par; of negroes, carrying a flag, also marchi through tho town and drew up in froi of Fitzpatrick's office. The latter toe their colors and placed them over L house. He conferred with Judgo Pt mer, and stated that he waa anxious have bis trial for the murder of Sher Murray at the present term of court. Upon opening the court on Wedin day morning. Judge Palmer found ni bher jarors nor witnesses forthcomin All were under arms, and had joined t contending factions, tho whites, und their chosen leader, Bowen, taking po tiou to the North of the town, and t blacks, under Fitzpatrick, stationed o mile ?South of tho village, both ou t river banka. Judge Palmer, Attorn Clayton, Sheriff Driver, and several i tlaential friends, met the belligerei under flag of troco, and read the R: Act to the leaders of each. Fitzpatri promised to disperso his band, 1 strong, and all tho blacks. The otl side disclaimed being rioters. Dari Wednesday af toi noon, Fitzpatrick, stead of dispersing his band, moi them towards tho town in double fl marched near tho Southern edge of I village, and filed off through a laue. Halting nearly a milo West, the whit under Bowen, accepted supposed bau for battle, and moved forward thron the town and down tho levee town tho blacks, who at ohco marched inti wasto of fallen timber recently thro down by a violent tornado. At a rai of COO yards firing commonced betwi the parties, and long range skirmish was kept up for an hour or two, resi ing in the death of Anderson Garre black follower of Fitzpatrick. 1 whites subsequently drew, off, retiree their oamp, built camp fires, threw pickets, and laid on their nrms dur tho night. Fitzpatrick retreated, i on Thursday morning was invisil The whites pursed closely, and eau Fitzpatrick to desert his followers i cross the Missouri, in Tennessee, at can Point, some forty miles abovo city. Oa Thursday afternoon, fifty armed white mon reached Osceola fi Homersville, Mo., a town twenty miles West of Osoeola. They cami volunteers to aid tho whites and cam near the plaoe. Saturday morning, shortly before I left the nonne, the whites ander Bowen returned from the Southward with forty two black prisoners, captured in the swamps and about various plantations. All were charged with being participants with Fitzpatrick with the troubles. The stores and houses were all closed, and much of tho goods and plunder had beon removed acrons the river or else? where. Families were also sent out of the place, cotton fields were deserted, workshops closed, and the general ap poarauco denoted strife nod disaster. Foo rs ate on tor tain ed that the whites under arms may, without acknowledged leaders, become plunderers, and porhaps, under tho influence of liquor, will com? mit au outrage or cot a throat. A feeling of insecurity prevails among all good citizens of the County. Au order had arrived from Qov. Hadley, re? moving Fitzpatrick from tbe office of Register, end this act was favorably re? garded by the people. Fitzpatrick passed through this city, to day, on his way to Little Book, where be expects to lay bis grievances to the State authori? ties. He boasts, like a braggart, con? quering hero of. his exploits, and.thinks he will go .back -clothed with authority to call oat tho militia and devastate the country. Efforts are in progress among influential officials and good citizens o circumvent his plans and bring about n peaceful solution of the impending trou? ble.- Memphis Cor. 2V. Y. Herald, loth. - m . ? - NEW MACUINEBY FOB COMTRBSSEKG COTTON.-On Friday last, a number of gentlemen, representing the commercial and mechanical interests, assembled at the Charleston cotton press, Church street, near Broad, to witness tbe opera? tions of a new steam and hydraulic cot? ton press, designed and ioveoled by John F. Taylor, Esq., of the firm of John F. Taylor & Co., the well known proprietor of the Pbccuix.Iron Works of this city, where the press was boilt. The press consists of two steam cylin? ders, each fifty-six inches in diameter and eight feet stroke. A hydraulic ram is attached to the piston of each of the fifty-six iocb steam cylinders. The diameters of these rams are twenty-two inches and nine inches. These rams are coooected by pipes to two other rams, attached to thu platten on which the bale of cottoo is placed. The tweoty-two inch ram imparts the initial presenro to the balo of cotton, and the nine inch ram tho finishing pressure. The piston that imparts, tbe initial press? ure being operated by! the exhaust steam from tho piston to which the eight inch rum is attached, .which steam, having then done all that is required of it, is discharged iuto an apparatus for heating the water which .is.'intended to be fed into the steam boiler. The piston that imparts the finishing 'proseare is ope? rated by live steam from the boiler. The steam is subsequently discharged into the other oylicdur, there to communicate aoother initial pressore, or the initial pressure imparted to the next bale of cotton pressed. The steam is supplied by au ordinury cylindrical tubular boiler, twelvo feet long and four feet in diame? ter. A pressure of seventy pounds per square inoh in the boiler produces a pressure of 1,000 tons on each bale, irre? spective of size. Consequently, every bale is compressed to the same density. Thojworking of the press was watched with great interest by those assembled, it being something new, and gave per? fect satisfaction ia every particular, turning out 100 bales of cotton to the hour. Its movement was almost noise? less, holding the balo firmly aud making it as neut a package as possible. It is a ?abor saver aud economizer of fuel, and gives out more power with half the ?team, (say sixty pounds,) than does the Did patent with 120 pouuds. Upon the whole, it muy be considered-and we say so on tho authority of experienced mechanics-as a triumph of genius and mechanical skill, and as soon as it be? comes generally known-the one we refer to being tho second one put op-it will take the place of its rivals, if the others may be so termed. \Charleston Courier.
