LAND MAIL. St. Louis, Jan. 24.-The
overland mail with San Francisco dates
Of the 3lst ult. has arrived here.
A discredited rumor prevailed at San
Francisco that Senator Gwin would re-
sign his scat for the Secretaryship Of the
Treasury. in consequence Of this, some
stir was noticeable among those ambi-
tious Of succeeding Mr.. Gwin.
The overland mail from Kansas had
arrived at Stockton.

San Francisco.
Tue steamer Hermann had been ad,
vertised for sale by the L. 5. Marshal, to
satisfy judgments obtained 10y the crew
against her.
Dexter Brigham, Jr., had failed for
Sl9S,OO0.
Business at San Francisco was very
dull, and rice, sugar and candles had SEN
sibly declined.
The dates from Victoria are to the 10Th

The OVERLAND MAIL.-The mail
stage which left St. Louis on the 9th De-
cember reached San Francisco at half
past eight o'clock Saturday night, the
10Th, having accomplished the trip in
nineteen days, eLeven hours and forty min
ates. Only sac days and tsoeaty hours
were consumed for the trip on the other
side of the Ell Paso. Had the same
rate of speed been made on this side of
the Ell Paso, the trip would have been
made easily within thirteen days.
The accomplishment of the distance
from here TO California by the semi-cir-
cular Southern route in nineteen DAYS,
demonstrates most clearly that the transit
might be made in straight line or by
the best route in ten or taeetUe DAYS.
BY this arrival San Francisco was put
in possession of the first copies of the
Presidents message.

DR.. and Mrs. Ward would CRATE
fully acknowledge the tokens ofkindness
and esteem manifested towards them both
here and at Westield, especially in two
pleasant donation visits,one at their house,
the other at Judge Richardson's. Many
old and young were present at each place,
and gave convincing proofs of regard for

ter. May theirs be the blessedness OF
those who perform acts Of good will from
attachment to the institutions Of religion,

The Paris Patris publishes a letter
from Milan, dated the 1st inst, which, it
observes, contains a statement so serious

racks with a similar cry.
The Nord publishes telegram from
Genoa, stating that the agitation was in

under the title Of Faustin l.. about ten
years. By the constitution of 1913 he

Tie New York Heralfs correspond
ent gives the following account of the
wordy war between Democratic Sen
ator5:
In Executive session of the Senate
to day an angry and exciting discussion
arose between Judge Douglas and SEN
ator Fitch, when words were used which
it is thought must lead to a duel. The
debate occurred on the question Of con-
frming Potter Of Ohio as Collector of
Toledo. Mr.. Pugh opposed Potter's no
mination, as the man displaced was his
friend. He said ir the President desir-
ed an issue with him (Pugh) he was
ready for it. lie denounced the APP
pointment, and called upon every Senator
who was his (Pugh's) friend to vote
against it. Douglas responded, saying
be would vote with the Senator from
Ohio. He then branched off on the IL
linois appointments, and said they were
dishonest, corrupt and incompetent
Senator Fitch iuterrogated Douglas, and
said it was untrue. Douglas again re-
iterated what he had said. Fitch again
said it was untrue. Cries Of order We're
then made. Douglas continued the de-
bate. Fitch replied to Douglas with
great bitterness, and said that Senators
knew how to prize anything coming from
that quarter. Cries Of order were again
made. Douglas then replied, and was
called TO order. Motions were then
made that Douglas be allowed to 20 on
in order. jeff. Davis opposed it, and
said, turning to Douglas, he had listened
with Indignation to the language used,
and It was that Of a highwayman and
bravo. The debate was continued for
some time, when a motion was made and
the Senate adjourned. 1t is said the
lie was given, and the most severe per-
sonal remarks made"
The Times correspondent says
1t is reported in diplomatic circles
that Lord Napier, in fact, is very much
pleased with his anticipated transfer to
the Hague, being fully apprised that it
Is designed as a step to promotion to
Berlin.
The rumor is that Lord n. is to be
inlrusted at the Hague with the negoti-
alton of u marriage alliance between
one Of the Princes Of Orange and the
Princess AHce--a mission of much de-
ljcacy, Of course, and one that is esteem
ed to be highly honorable to the nego-
tiator
This disposed of, Lord Bloomfield j.
expected to retire from Berlin, to be
succeeded by Lord Napier. The Ber-
lin mission has long ranked il much

SAGAcITY OF A DoG.-Ooe day dur
ing the recent sleighing, NJ. Eber Hart,
of Brighton, harnessed a pair of spirit
ed young horses to a sleigh, partially
loaded, for the city. The horses took
fright while standing without driver,
and ran away. A large mastiff owned
by Mr.. Hart saw the horses start and
gave chase, pursuing for half a mile be-
fore he overlook the runaways. He
passed them, and by presenting himself
in the track in front of them, endeavored
to check their speed, but to no purpose i:
they actually ran faster for the barking
of the dog. Failing in this. the dog
dropped out of the track, and following
behind, he seized the reins, dragging up
on the ground, and did not relax his hold
until the team stopped. After he had
been drawn for some distance. his null
became greater upon one line than the
other, which drew the horses toward a
fence, where they stopped. We are as
sured that this was an actual occurre nee
as stated.-ROchester Union.

half of the Pennsylvania Democrats,
that he will resist the consideration of

scheme concerning the tariff is present.
ed. The Senate Committee on Foreign
Relations, by vote of 4 to 3, have
agreed to report written by Slidell, adj
vooating the $50, 100000 appropriation,
and reporting a bill for the same. The
report is an elaborate argument in favor
of the acquisition of Cuba. Mason,
Douglas, Slidell and Polk agreed to the
report, Seward, Crittenden and Foot dis
agreed.
The city is full of rumors to the effect
that Judge Douglas has challenged SEN
ator Fitch. The only foundation for
the rumors is the fact that negotiations
are going on for reconciliation between
them.

Notes have passed between Senators
Douglas and Fitch, with a view to ex-
plantations and retractions, or a hostile
meeting. The first note was from Doug
las to Fitch, demanding a retraction of
the charges of falsehood the second,
from Fitch, specifying the charges, and
inquiring if Douglas refers to them; if
so, Fitch retracts them, Douglas replies
in detailed letter, explaining and mo-
difying his language, and giving it a
construction much less offensive than as
originally understood. Fitch rejoins
amicably, and his note will probably set
tie the affair.

Inhuman Massacre of Friendly
Indians in Texas.

A letter from the Indian Agency at
Brazos, Texas, published in the Wash
ington States, relates the particulars of
a horrid butchery of a party of harm
less Indians, who went from the reserve
few weeks since to a place called Col
conda, for the purpose of hunting, and
established a camp there. The party
numbered about nine men and women
with their children. The letter says:
"These Indians had been living in
perfect amity with the settlers around
them for some weeks, when a party Of
some twenty men from Erath county
who had determined to break up the
reserves, heard of their being out on
this hunt, and they determined, as it ap-
pears, that this would be a good time,
as they expressed it, to 'open the ball.
During the night, they were heard pass
ing near the settlement, and little after
daylight they crept up to the Indians.
and shot them in their beds. Three wo-
men and three men were killed instantly.
A young man named Stevens shot a
woman who was lying by the side of her
husband. The man rose and fired at
Stevens, and killed him; but a moment
after the Indian was killed by one of
the white men. A little boy was badly
wounded, and he will probably die
Eight other children were wounded
Choctaw Tom was absent from his camp
at the time. His old wife was instantly
killed, horribly mutilated with a load Of
buckshot. A nephew of our old friend
Jose Maria, the jolly little chief of the

All this happened on Monday last
9th December.) On Tuesday, some
