Arrival of the Overland Mail.

Fort SMITH, ARK. October 1.-The Over
land Mail, with dates from San Francisco to
the 10th of September, has arrived.
The telegraph line was completed within
three miles of Los Angeles when the mail
passed.
Two men in the service of the Overland
Mail Company, supposed to have been killed
by Mexicans, were found dead at Hollands
vile Station.
An accident occurred to the mail-coach
near Fort TETON, by which it was driven into
a deep ravine, and in descending turned a
double summerset. The driver was killed,
and the conductor and one passenger badly
injured.
On the 18th body of about 100 Apache
Indians broke into the Correl, at Sutton Sta
ton, while the horses were being changed
from the coach. The passengers and station
keeper fred on the Indians, when they re-
sponded with shower of arrows. The party
retreated within the station and renewed
their fire. The fight lasted about an hour.
The Indians retired with four horses of the
Mail Company, having lost about twenty
killed and wounded. None of the defending
party were injured, exceptthe station-keeper,
who received an arrow in his face. The
mails and baggage were undisturbed.

legged gold and silver discoveries II humbug.

eTs is confirmed by the passengers. The
road north of Red River is said TO he lined
with wagons. The excitement in Northern
Texas continues undated. All suspected
persons are warned away.

will dine with Lord Lyons on Friday. He
visits Mount Vernon on the cutter Harriet

for the grand pyrotechnic display.

TRIAL OF THE "CIT1zENs' GIFT"- CRagrin
of OR FTreaen at the Apdrd of Premiums
at the National Fdir--A 'Cincinnati Fire.
man" whose communication, by the way,
was not accompanied by the name of the
writer, seems to be somewhat chagrined at
the manner in which the award Of the pre-
miums to steam fre-engines was made at
the late National Fair, and the manner in
which it was spoken of in this paper. He
says the "Citizens' Gift has thrown water
distance of more than 300 feet. We do not
doubt his statement, but we know the great
est distance reached by our engines at the
trial during the Fair was 2601S feet. In re-
gard to the trial of the "Good WILL" we
made the statement upon what we consid-
cred good authority, and would have been
glad to have had it rectifed if it had been
done in somewhat less petulent terms. We
believe our Fire Department to be the best
in the world and feel satisfied it performs
better when needed to arrest the progress of
conhagration, than at National Fairs-to
ell which we doubt not any Cincinnati
Fireman" will readily subscribe.

suffered the extreme penalty of the law on
the l4th ult. A correspondent states that it

He persisted to the last that the act was
done in self-defense, and that the witnesses
for the State swore falsely.
The preparations for a war OF extermlna-

by the regulars and volunteers.
The crops will be very short and high

The RECENT FouRTH-sTREET AssAssINA-
TIoN,-An the efforts of the police, up to
the present time, to find the assassin ofyoung
Guelich, have been unavailing. No tidings
whatever have reached the ears of the au-
thorities in regard to his whereabouts, aud
it is quite probable now that he win never
be arrested.
Coroner Carey assembled his jury, yester-
day afternoon, at which time it was stated
that globules of blood were discovered on
the blade of the knife taken from William
Witte, one of the companions of Knabe at
the time the homicide was committed. The
weapon was an ordinary pocket dirk~knife,
with blade three inches long, and might
have made just such wound as that which
caused the death of Guelich.
The jury rendered a verdict to the effect
that the deceased came 10 his death from a
wound made by a knife in the hands of
Knabe, and that William Witte and Frank
Gervis were accessories.

MYSTERIOUS AFFAIR-A Nan Found Dead
in an AHey.-About half-past seven o'clock,
yesterday morning, man, who has not yet
been identified, save as an ink-peddier, was
found dead in a private alley in the rear of a
cotiee-house, on the corner of Clay and Lib
eTty-street kept by a man named F. Prom
izius. There is no opening into the street
from the place on which he was discovered,
but il may be reached through the rear yard
Clay Main or Liberty
He was found by barber named Schmidt
whose establishment fronts on Main-street
near Liberty, and whose yard is bounded in
the rear by the alley in which the man lay.
The deceased is about fifty years of age, and
was plainly dressed, with black coat, gray
pants, woolen socks and slippers. His cloth
ing and slippers were perfectly dry and un-
soiled, as if he had been carried to the spot
in which he was found, and left to die.
The rain fell in torrents during the greater
part of the night previous, and had not
ceased at five o'clock. The man was found
at halfpast seven, and was quite warm, al
though dead, so that he could not have lain
there more than two hours. The body was
not disfgured by any wounds; but there
were purple spots on the face, and a large
purple mark on the neck.
Coroner Carey was Immediately informed
of the affair, and impanneled Jury, which
adjourned until this morning, in order to
summon witnesses, and have the man
identified. The body was taken to. the es-
tablishment of Mr.. Ehlman, on Main-street,
opposite Orchard ,kwhere it still lies
IL is affair is quite mysterious, from the
fact that the deceased seems TO be wholly un-
known in the neighborhood, and could not
have reached the place in which he died
without passing through one of the houses in
the locality. His pockets were turned inside
out, as if they had been rifled, but no marks
ON the body indicated violent death, save
those on the throat. The inquest to o-day win
probably develop the cause OF his death, but
the manner in which he reached the out-of-
the-way place in which be was discovered,
will doubtless remain forever mystery.
