THE CHURCH ARREST.

The rumored arrest of John Church at
Baltimore, and his incarceration III Fort
McHenry, causes much excitement in the
community, and the comments thereon are
various. The Pime was the recipient Of the
dispatch which was signed "Winters and
Bing," and publishes it without COMMENT
The Union, of which Mr.. Church is one of
the proprietorS, has no direct knowledge Of
the fact, and receives the rumor doubtingiy.
The Enterprise believes the story, and seems
to consider the arrest eminently proper
The dispatches of later date make no men,
ton OF the matter, which seems strange if
the report be really true. The arrest of
delegate to the National Convention on 4
charge Of treason (for such must have been
the charge from the place of Imprisonment
deslgnated) is rather an astonishing circum-
stance, more especially when that delegate
is Federal officer and the proprietor of
newspaper, claiming to be the Union paper
of the Territory. 1t is fact beyond contra
diction, that whatever may be the private

been a steadfast defender Of the Administra-

transpired since his arrival in the East to
lead to his arrest. II the intelligence of the
nomination of Mr.. Lincoln is correct, we
cannot conceive of any reason for Mr..

naughty talk. In fact, it is "all muddle,"

The MURDER OF RAMON CARILLo.-The
following card from Senior Pacheco, State
Treasurer of California, appears in the Sac
ramento Union of yesterday:
MEssRs. EDITORS Having seen in the Union
of this date an article copied from the San Fran.
cisco Evening Bulletin in relation to the murder
of Ramon GARLIC, near Los Angeles, on the 3lst
ultimo, permit me TO state that Ramon GARLIC
was ever classed one of the bravest of men,
He was generous and noblehearted, and beloved
by all who knew him, excepting those who, with.
out cause or provocation, sought his life and
who, true to their repeated threats, finally assas-
sinated him. He was not desperate; had not
been the terror of his eountrymen or of his own
family and relatives, and possessed too high
sense of honor and selfrespect ever to have been
connected with outlaws

IxFR1SGEMEST.-The Text Society, for
the purpose of attracting attention to the
hom9patf &c doses of Scripture which they
daily administer to the public through the
columns of the Sacramento Union, the Viz
ginia Union and this paper, selected the style
Of type technically known as "title" or
"full face" and pre-empted that section Of
the paper Immediately succeeding the births,
deaths and marriages. They failed, how
ever, to secure copyright therefor, and an
enterprising safe manufacturer has jumped
their claim in the Sacramento Union, and
rings in his patent safe advertisement in the
same style Of typography, and between the
same "black rules" There may be some
connection between safes and salvation, but
We imagine that Lilies safes would hardly
prove protection against the kind of fire
spoken of in the Scriptures.

RETIRING UNEMPLOYED GENERALS. -
The following from the Washington cores
pondence of the San Francisco Bulletin,
shows possibility that both Fremont and
Mcclellan may ere long find themselves on
the shelf as military chieftains, and be left in
elegant leisure to pursue their political
schemes untramelled by the cares of camp or
field. Political shenanigan" is more the
forte of both than the "vigorous prosecution
Of the war -
The House has passed the Joint Resolution re-
ported from the Military Committee to drop from
the army rolls the names of unemployed general
officers Mr.. Schenck, of Ohio, In supporting the
measure denied that auv member of the Military
Committee was actuated by personal or political
motives in reporting the measure. He stated fur
Their that three-fourths of the officers to be af-
fected by it are staunch friends of the present Ad
ministration. The resolution only proposed to
remedy by legislation evils which all admit exist
and get rid Of the expensive maintenance of
large number of general officers whom the Gov
eminent either could not or would not employ in
active service. The House rejected amendments
proposing to give general officers not in active
service military trials TO their fitness etc, and
passed the resolution by vote of ~ yeas to
As nays 1t provides that all Major and Brigadier
Generals who, on the LIST July, 1864, shall not be
in the performance of duty or service correspond
ing to their respective grades and rank, and who
shall not have been engaged in such duty or SER
vice for three months continuously next prior to
that date, shall be dropped from the rolls, and
their pay, emoluments, etc, shall cease. The res
olution excerpts from the foregoing fate all officers
whose absence shall have been OccasiOned by
wounds received or disease contracted In the pub
lie service, or by being prisoner of war in the
hands Of the enemy or on parole. 1t also, in the
case of Major or Brigadier General of Volun-
teers, who may have been appointed from the
regular army under the Act of July 22d, 1861,
and its amendatory acts, returns said officers to
their position and duty officers of said regular
army. If the Senate concurs in this measure, as
it is likely to do, it will have the effect of exclu
ding Generals Mcclellan and Fremont entirely
from the service, unless the President shall see fit
to give them commands suited to their rank prior
to the LIST July next, when the Joint Resolution
becomes operative. Of course the President has
the power already to drop any officer from the
rolls in his own discretion but as he does not
exercise it, Congress seems disposed to compel him
to relieve the service of men whom the Executive
will not accept the responsibility of employing.

Murder i'm LIE Sueuf County,

LIE SUEUR, Sept. Is, 1884,
To tile Editor Of the Pioneer:
On Tuesday evening last John Brown, OF
Elysian township, in this county, shot Obed
Russell, of the same place.
Brown was drunk and quarrelled with negro
named Foster, with whom he boarded. The
negro beat him severely, and supposed that he
killed him. Brown procured shot gun and
went in search of Foster, and met Russell at
Fosters house, when he levelled his gun and
put thirty shot in Russelrs heart. He was
sixteen or eighteen feet from him.
Obed Russell was member of company E,
First Reg. MINI. Vols, and formerly lived in
Minneapolis. During his residence in Elysian
he endeared himself to the community by his
manly qualities. His Masonic brethren have
charge of the body, and are preparing to send
it to his friends in Wisconsin.
Russell went to Fosters house to warn him
of Browns intention to shoot him, and tried to
soothe Brown. when the latter shot him.
Brown is in the custody of a constable and
Sheriff Fousley has gone to Elysian to take
charge of the prisoner.

From the sixth Regiment.

From private letters received yesterday
from members of the Sixth Regiment, da-
ted at Helena, September Sd and Septem-
Der eth, we make the following extracts:
HELENA, Sept. 3.
We buried the second one of our company
yesterday. His name was George Mead. He
formerly carried ON boot and she store in st.
Paul, and leaves wife and five children resi-
dent in Champlin, Mimi, to mourn his loss.
All of the sick men of the regiment have
been sent to Memphis. The last of them went
up river to day on the u 8. Hospital boat d.
A. January.
This afternoon, about O'Clock, eleven
steamboats, loaded with troops passed here en-
route for some place unknown to us. 1t was
supposed to be Gen. A. j. Smiths command,
as we recognized the Seventh and Ninth Min
nesota regiments by the Indian yell which is
common to all our Minnesota troops.
Our new Chaplain, Rev. Mr.. Cobb of Min
neapolis, arrived last evening, with letters and
small packages for the boys. We expect great
things of him, and, to all appearances, he seems
to be able to fulfil our expectations.
HELENA, Sept 8.
know that all this regiment has had in the
way of luxuries, they have received in boxes
from home. All that have had to cot for the
last eight weeks has been bread and tea-my
stomach being too weak to digest anything
else.
believe it Is all humbug about the regi-
ment leaving here soon, for the health of the
regiment is rapidly improving, and no troops
can be spared from this place. Our remaining
through the winter is thought to be settled by
Col. Crooks being placed in command of the
District.
The Paymaster paid US off yesterday for
May and june There is some half dozen Pay
masters here, among whom are two Minnesota
men-Maior s. B. A. Haynes, of St. Paul, and
Major Adams, of Monticello.
Ihave, while writing this, received eight st.
Paul papers, for which am truly grateful.
