Tie Fugitive Slave Ease at Philadelphia.

PHILADELPHIA, April 4. Before the
United States Commissioner to-day, the
case Of the Negro, Daniel Webster, an
alleged fugitive from Athensville, Va, is
being heard. On conducting the fugitive
to the Commissioner office this morning,
most exciting scene ensued. Hun
dreds gathered along the route, and there
was every evidence Of a forcible seizure
being determined On. Marshal jenkins
made such movement that left no doubt
that the first man who interfered did 50
on the peril Of his life. He thus sue
ceeded in safely conducting Daniel before
the Commissioner. The fugitive's coun-
sci objected to the power Of attorney Of
claimants counsel as mere transcript
I from and not a full record Of the Court
of Lowden Co., Va.
The trial is progressing, and the Courf
room guarded by large force of police
The evidence for the prosecution closed
at 9 o'clock this evening, when the coun
sci for the defence asked for an adjourn
ment of the case until be had time t.
consult with his witnesses. Mr.. Brews
ter argued that the statute enforced sum
mary proceedings, and opposed an ad
Ijournment. The public feeling was ex
cited, and the law demanded prompt &C
ton to shield the claimants from any dis
astrous results. That was the intent c
the law. Finally, the Commissioner de
cided in favor Of adjourning the case, 70
the reason that he was not perfectly sa
isfed with the identification of the negr,
the witnesses not having seen him fc
seven or eight years.
Adjourned till tomorrow afternoon.

Fire in Boston.

A serious confagration occurred Sat-
urdav norning,on Eastern Railrod wharf,
BY which the three story granite block
known as the Suffolk Flour Mills was
nearly destroyed, together with all the
valuable machinery. The fire was first
discovered by the Harbor Police, about
half past 8 o'clock, and originated in the
engine room, but from what cause was
not aseertained-
The entire Fire Department, together
with engines from the neighboring cities,
was early on the ground, and hard at
work, but the flames made such rapid pro-
gress that before they were mastered the
interior and roof of considerable por-
ton of the block was entirely burned
out.
The block was divided into a number
of tenements originally designed for
storehouses, and ten of the tenements
were owned and occupied by the Suffolk
Mills Corporation. Mr.. Francis Stan
dish owns two of the stores, William Dill
loway owns one, and Mr.. 7. j. Perkins
another. That portion of the block be-
longing 10 the Corporation was the most
seriously injured, and their beautiful and
powerful steam engine, together with the
machinery, valued at $4,000, was who'll
lily ruined or destroyed.
The walls Of the building remain stand
ling, and have the appearance of being
7 secure. As yet the entire loss has not
been definitely ascertained, but it is esti-
mated by competent judges that it will
not fall short of Sl50,O00, which is par
italy covered by insurance.-BostOn

Civil War in China.

The Kang-tse Countrywide expedi-
ton of Lord Elgin up the Chinese river
Yang-tse-kiang, diclosed to the English a
scene Of desolation through section of
country stretching two hundred miles
along the banks Of the river, which is |
said to have exceIled the devastation eK-
hibited at Sebastopol after its capture by
the allies. The region thus devastated
had beed swept by the forces OF the re-
bel Chief Tae-pingwaRg, and numerous
populous cities were IN utter ruin and
deserted. On reaching Nankin they
were prevented from seeing the city, as
the high walls hid the ruins, novels OF
palaces that might remain. Comparing,
however, what they saw with the &C
counts Of their predecessors, they conld
ascertain that the Porcelain Tower Is
gone, all the great suburbs, such as they
were in 1912, are swept away, and out
of the ruins some formidable-looking
forts had been constructed. All the
towns in rebel hands were falling TO ruin,
and commerce was completely paralyzed.
Those that had been in rebel hands, and
had been Iecaptured were, with the soli-
tary exception of Hankow, utterly ruin
ed. 1t is quite possible that the recap
ture, Of a town by the imperialists was
fully as fatal to it as its occupation by the
rebels. The country was infested by
marauders, and the river seemed given
up to pirates.
The opinions which the English had
formed Of the Yang-tse as navigable
stream were confirmed, but as regard:
the richness of the country they were
: disappointed the valley is most fertilt
towards its mouth, and the soil is sandy
between Nankin and Houpeh. The sol
is so poor that agriculture must be hare

Murderous Assault--A Police Of
fcer Stabbed--A Woman Fa-
tally Stabbed.

While the fire at the Suffolk Flour
Mills Saturday morning was at its hight;
and the police were engaged in keeping
the crowd of idlers and spectators out of
the way of the iremen, and away from
harm, a United States Marine named
Walter Bassett had a dispute with a North
street woman named Abby Nelson, and
drawing knife he plunged the blade in-
to her breast in the immediate region of
the liver, infieting wound which will
probably prove fatal.
The woman was Immediately taken to
the Office of DIR. Welch, who rendered
temporary aid, after which she was con-
veyed to the Massachusetts General Hos
pital, where it was thought Saturday that
she could not long survive.
The police were close at hand at the
time, and arrested Bassett, but not until
he had made stout resistance and cut
officer Cowboys coat in several places.
Officer Jellison, one of the very best Off
GERS in the department, and who has had
dealings with many of the hardest kind
of desperadoes who infest that neighbor-
hood, was less fortunate. as Bassett, be-
fore he was secured, inflicted a severe, but
it is thought not dangerous, wound in his
left side.
Mr.. Jellison was assisted to his resi-
dence, p Lowell street, where he was at
tended by Drs. Aver and Tobie. Mon
lday forenoon he was comparatively COM
Portable.
Bassett was taken to the station house
after hsrd-fought battle, and securely
confined to await the result ofhis assault
upon the woman Nelson. He declares
that he was not intoxicated at the time,
and says he don't know what made him
commit the violence.
Bassett was subsequently brought be-
fore the Police Court on three complaints,
viz: for assaulting Abby Nelson with in
tent to kill. He Isl hard looking custom.

A writer in Household Words thus
describes the personal appearance of
Napoleon III.
" He is grizzled, cadavorous, and lame
in the left hip, and labors to conceal
this last defect. His walk is awkward.
He turns out his toes, and leans heavily
on the strong stick he carries in his we'll
gloved hand. He is carefully dressed
but though his coat fits him very accura-
tely, he has nothing of the air of per-
fectly dressed man. His figure is not
improved by the cuirass which his coat
will not conceal. Every step he takes
is studied, while bis eye scans every
passer-by with a look which has some
thing uncanny in IFS expression"

REMARKABLE SEASONS. A late Lon

spring of 1883 in England:
The nightingale was heard in Eng

a remarkable fact. 1t has been repeat
eddy heard since; so the declaration may
be believed. Over the greater part Of
the pasturage Of the kingdom the grass
has not ceased TO be green throughout the
winter and the roses and honeysuckles
put out shoots almost as soon as their Ia
test leaves dropped. All the spring flow.
ers of our gardens welcomed, epen-eyed
the coming Of March. The elm, LON.

buds at the very beginning of the month
while the willow catkins have overhuna
the streams as in April. Apricots ant
peaches were in bloom above a week ago
and in the fruit-growing counties, whert
