ra.rimonInI g Major Anderson.

A magnificent gold box has just been COM
pleted, to be presented by the Common
Council of New York to Brigadier General
Anderson, the hero Of Sumter. The token
was ordered some time ago. but the elaborate
workmanship expended thereon delayed its
more speedy mpletiOn. The box is octagO-
nal in shape, about thtee inches deep and
five inches long. In front of the lid is q
miniature eagle OF solid gold, while upon the
top of the cover is represented the gallant
soldier in a kneeling posture and the goddess
of Liberty in the act of placing a crown on
his brow. The workmanship is exquisite,
the likeness of Anderson, though in such a
miniature form, being perfect. The box pre-
gents the following inscription; The freedom
of the city of New York conferred upon
Major Robert Anderson by its corporate au-
thorities in recognition of bis gallant con-
duct in defending Fort Sumter against the
attack of the rebels of South Carolina, April
1918, 1861.

The Government through the Washing
ton reporter for the associated press, has been
compelled to announce that divers sensa-
tiJnal reports protesting to come from
Washington, and which are prejudieisl to
the public interests, are not in reality tele-
grapbed from that point but either are sent
by mail or manufactured at the points where
printed. This is a wise declaration, for the
honest people of the country have frequent
ly been astonished at the reports pretending
to smanate from the capital, and which
either reveal something which should be
kent quiet, or circulate some false report
This announcement must not be supposed to
include all special dispatches, " but merely
those which are improper to be circulated
All dispatches leaving Washington are super
vised by an agent appointed for the purpose,
and those which really do leave there, may
uepsraIly be relied upon. Anything tders-
fore calculated to be injurious to the inter
ssss of the country may be considered as
bogus.

Sunday Nights Dispatches.
FROM BALTIMORE.

BALTIMORE, Oct. u.
The refugees from Norfolk, who arrived
to-day on the Louisiana, previous to
leaving had been closely searched to prevent
their bringing any newspapers, but one pas
senger secreted a Norfolk Day Book which
had the dispatch from New Orleans of the
attack on Wilson's Zouaves at Santa Rosa
Island. The rebels, 1000 in number, storm
ed the works in the night, and in an hour
had spiked all the guns which were in po-
sition, and destroyed all the tents but the
hospital, and captured ammunition, rations
and stores. Maj. Israel Vodges, of the o. s.
I'd Artillery, and recently at Fort Monroe,
was taken prisoner.

The PrOprIetOrs of Lake superior City.

The PrOprietOrs of Lake superior CITY,
1t is known to many of our readers, though
it may not be 10 the public generally, that
the site on which Lake Superior City is sit
uated is owned principally by Southern men.
Ali the proprietOrs, but one or two at most,
indeed, are from Southern States. These
men are r. NJ. T. Hunter, OF Virginia, q
member of the rebel Cabinet, J. C. Brecken-
ridge, and L. W. Powell, the rebel Senators,
and Berish MagOfin, the traitor Governor
of Kentucky, VIM. Aiken, and W. W. Boyce
of South Carolina, Sam Magofin of Mis-
souri,, W. W. Coreoran, and Geo. w. Riggs,
of Washington The Northern men are the
notorious Jesse D. Bright, of Indiana, an
avOwed secessionist, snd a Mr.. Beck, resi-
dence not known. Hunter, Breckenridge,
Powell, Boyce, and Sam MagOfin, are now
in arms against the Government, and Bright.
Gov. Msgofin, and we believe Corcoran, if
not Aiken, are in open sympathy with the
rebels. In view OF these facts, it would
seem to be the duty of the Government to
investigate this matter with view to the
cOnhscatiOn of that part of the city which
belongs TO rebels in arms at lest
These men are using their whole power
and wealth to subvert the Government, and
this property is used indirectly, if not di-
rectly, in support of the rebellion. Why,
then, should it not be confiscated ? Besides
being just punishment for the crimes OF
the traitor owners, its con6scation would be
q decided benefit to the city. The proprie.
tors, by refusing to put the land in market,
believing that the city must at some time
become place Of great importance, have
greatly retarded, and, indeed, absolutely
checked its progress. They got possession OF
it, too, by means not the most honorable-in
fact, they cheated the Government out of it.
Having induced some of the wild Indians OF
Minnesota to preempt the land, they bought
out their rights for song. If the site could
be thrown into the market, it would be rap
idly taken up, and the city soon become,
from the advantages Of its location, point
OF extensive business, being only one hun
dred and fifty miles from st. Paul, and on
the cheapest if not the shortest route be
tween that city and the Atlantic by way Of
the lakes, and at the head of lake naviga-
ton. The subject seems to be one worth the
attention Of the goVernment-DstrOit I'd.

A bloody fight occurred in Chicago, on
Friday, in billiard saloon, which grew out
of an attempt to cowhide J. W. Sheahan,
editor of the Post, by Capt. now Oolonen
Phillips, of the Chicago Irish Brigade. Shea
han had published a severe article upon
Phillips election as Colonel, which he re-
fused to retract in such form as Phillips die
tated. The latter attacked Sheahan in the
streets with a raw hide, when he was knock
ed down by one of the Post employees.-
This led to q fight shortly after in a billiard
saloon, in which twenty or thirty persons
participated, and in which Phillips was seri-
ously injured.
