The Herald correspondent telegraphs from
Washington I" A rumor is current at the
State Department this morning, to the eff
feet that General Walker has sent to New
Orleans for reinforcements for his army, as
his hopes of success since his defeat were
not of an encouraging character" The dis
tinguished person who gave me this infor-
nation assumes it to be correct, but is ap-
prehensive that the administration will inter-
fere to prevent him from reaching Nicaragua.
He represents the readiness of hundreds
Ito leave New Orleans, and is assured
from the extraordinary excitement that pre-
walls in that city in favor of Walker, that
should the Marshal of that district interpose
sea force to prevent the departure of those
resolved upon going to Walkers aid, serious
consequences may follow, as opposing force
will certainly be used.
A new feature in the Vice-P Presidential
game will soon become apparent in the pre-
sentation of the names of Senators ex-Goy-
ernor Brown of Mississippi, and the Hon.
Frederick S. Stanton, of Tennessee.
The Tribune correspondent telegraphs
from Washington: The cabinet meeting to-
morrow will be truly important from the at
tempt to carry the recognizance of Walkers
government. The President is still strongly
inclined to favor it, pressed by Quitman,
Douglas, and others. The present policy is,
to introduce this subject in the platform of
the Cincinnati Convention. A portion of
the cabinet that favored the project three
days ago, are less anxious, after opposing
have been presented.

St. Paul Gas Company.

The Gas Company have succeeded in MAX
:, an exceedingly favorable contract-so
e as the interests of the company and cit
ems generally are concerned-with Mr..
10y, for the immediate commencement and
erection of the works for the manufacture
of cheaper article of light than can posi-
bly, be supplied otherwise than by coal gas.
The contract provides that the principal
buildings of the works are to be of stone,
with iron roof The retort house will be 80
by so feet, and 20 feet high; the purifying
room and Office, 40 by 30; the coal sheds
Al by %, supported by iron pillars. The
gas-holder will be So feet in diameter, and
IA feet deep, with capacity to hold 10000
cubic feet of gas. The purifier will be Ca
pable of purifying 100000 cubic feet per
day. Three miles of main pipe, along the
principal streets, are contracted to be laid
within time to receive the gas as soon as the
works are completed.
We congratulate our city upon this great
march she has made, for one so young, in
substantial and needful improvement of this
kind and trust the entcrprising gentlemen
who have embarked their means in the I'M
dertaking, will not have any cause 10 regret
the act. In year or less from this time,
St. Paul Will be lighted with gas.
