APPREHENDED RIsiNs % TIE CHRISTIANS
IN TURKEY-There are most alarming reports
current in Pans, as To a general rising OF the
Christian population, not merely on the frontier
of AlSania, but throughout Seryia, Bosnia,
Thessaly, Maeedonia, iioumslia-in fact through
all European Turkey. Whether Russia is try
ing a desperate stroke, or whether it be the
spontaneous impulse of long compressed impa-
thence of Ottoman rule, time alone will tell; but
the Greek soldiers are deserving en- asss ever the
frontier, to form guerilla troops within the
Turkish territory, and this summer will be re-
markrbis BY az Outbreak of unprecedented i'm
portance, Of which the Montenegro victory
gives the signal-BOsfon Trarsller.

The ARTEsIAS WELL-GLOOHY Prospect. -
At noon to-day the Artesian well 10 the State
House Yard was one thousand five hundred and
fourteen feet deep. It was expected that at the
depth of 1000 feet the shaft would strike the
desired vein, but at the depth Of l,5l4 feet the
prospect of ever penetrating vein which will
force water above the surface OF the earth Is
as gloomy as when the enterprise was first com
menced.
We learn that the employees engaged il bor-
ing the well, have refused this afternoon to
work longer at so much per foot, as too much
time is consumed in drawing the shaft to ad-
NIT of their realizing any profit The machine
~ is undergoing repairs and when completed
the hands will resume work by the day.-Co-
LlIabns Faet.

Mr.. Jenkins killed BY Gen. Lane.

A Leavenworlh dispatch Of the 5th, says the
details of the affray between jenkins and Lane
have been received.
Both Lane and jenkins were living on a
claim which was contested; the former enclosed
an acre of land on which was well used by
both parties in common. Lane recently locked
the well, fenced up the entrance and forbade
jenkins ac,ess TO IL jenkins declared he would
have water at all hazards. Lane threatened to
shoot him if he made forceable entry upon his
premises. On Thursday afternoon, Mr.. jenkins,
accompanied by four friends well armed, cut
down Lanes fence, and proceeded toward the
well, when Lane warned them not to advance
or he would shoot Disregarding the threat,
jenkins and his party advanced, when Lane
fired. killing Jenkins instantly. One of Jen-
kins men then shot Lane in tie leg, intietlng
4 wound which confines him u his bed.
Lane was arrested, and was 10 undergo an
examination TO day

plored.

Faria corruptiOns and Investigations.

The report of the House Tariff Investigating
Committee i too long for our columns 1t

expended in Washington to procure the reduc-

OF the sum furnished by the Massachusetts,
manufacturers went into the hands of the man

Of how it was expended HIS testimony before

1t is charged that English agents were IN
Washington, supplied with unlimited amounts
of money, to procure the passage of the tariff

Auenoe the Administration and Congress. To
break down American industry and open our
ports to British productions was worth the mil
lions it cost to England. Aud yet no investi-

ATTENPT TO LYNCH MuRDERER.-We learn
from the Louisville Courier that there was mnch
excitement at Nicholasville. Ky, on Friday af-
ternoon- A mob gathered around the jail
and demanded Joshua Arnold, imprisoned for
the murler of his wife. They wrenched the
Jail door off Its hinges, and were only induced to
desist by the inteTeession of several respectable
citizens, and the promise that Arnold should be
tried on the following Monday.
A guard of eight men was then posted around
the jail doors. Another rush was made to get
at the prisoner, when four of the guard stood
their ground with cooked guns, determined that
the mob should walk over their dead bodies be-
fore they would swerve from their duty.
Arnold had two thousand dollars upon his
person. which he offered to the jailor il he would
procure him rial Of 0fsfrychRine

MASSACHUSETTS NUISANCE L,w.-The re-

high character, is doing good work in Massa-
ehusetts. The police officers of Boston and

as vel as the law susiains them The decision
OF Justice Shaw is based upon Section 81 OF an
act passed at the session OF 1855, which reads
as follows
'.Seetion 81 All intoxicating liquors kept
for sale, and the implements and vessels actual
" used in selling and keeping the same, cOntrs-

eiared to be common nuisances, and are 10 be
REGARDED and treated as SUCH
The case decided by Chief Justice Shaw will
come before the whole Supreme Court of the
State on a motion for a new trial, on the ground
that the Jury were misdirected in matter of law,
and that the verdict is against law and the evi-
dence. In case decision sustaining the law is
made by the full bench of the Supreme Court,
the Association of Liquor Dealers IN Boston in
tend 10 carry the matter before the United
States Courts.
