AssAULT-Tuesday evening, between and
10 o'clock, one of the clerks in the Post Office
was returning home, and as he was passing; up
Middle street, three fellows armed with clubs,
jostled against him and threatened to fog him.
He turned upon them, pulled revolver from
his pocket and aimed it at them threatening to
blow out the brains of the first one that touch
ed him. The scamps, seeing that he was arm
ed took to their heels. They probably intend
ed to rob him.

The Lewiston Journal of yesterday says the
murder at West Auburn is the all absorbing
topic of interest in that vicinity, and the mys-
terry still grows Those well accustomed to in
vestgations of crime, argue in favor of the
theory that the murder was committed to
achieve and to conceal rape.
Sheriff Parker is confined to his bed by sick
ness, but Constable Joseph Littlefeld and 9TH
er gentlemen have been engaged all day to-
day in further search
There are certain other suspected parties
who answer - one of them, at least - to the
description given of the straggler who called
at Mr.. Libby's Thursday morning, but we are
not yet advised as to whether further arrests
have been made. jg % l9lel1rI 20
1t is now Felt to be conclusively proved that
johnson is innocent. Mr.. Briggs, with whom
he stayed Thursday night, confirms Johnson's
movements equally as well as does Mr.. Wheat
on, with whom he stayed Wednesday night
That johnson could not have got up Wednes-
day night and left the house to do such a deed
is further proven by the appearance of his
room the next morning. johnson has not yet
been released from confinement but will prob
ably be released tomorrow, if nothing unfore-
seen transpires. 80 ~ ~"s- "a - =
A faithful examination of the premises and
scene of the murder shows that the murderer
attempted to set fire to the house. In the wood
shed pile of kindlings and birch bark, partly
burned, was discovered on Monday, having
been concealed by the snow that had blown in
A careful observation of the interior of the
house renders the conclusion probable that the
murderer first assailed Mrs. Kinsley, and that
Miss Caswel at once leaped from her bed
which was evidently not disturbed by the ruff
fan. 1t may be that he forced her to light a
lamp near the stove. 1t is at least probable
that as she approached the stove for some pur-
pose, the william made thrust at her with the
knife, cutting her arm perhaps, as here consid-
cradle blood was found. Then pursuing the
terrified woman with knife and chair, he at
last struck her down in the entry. The fact
that the life blood as it flowed out was not
splashed around indicated that the unfortu-
nate woman did not struggle much after being
felled in the entry. The awfulness of this
scene cannot be imagined. The shrieks and
groans of the murdered women must ring in
the ear of the murderer with terrific monitionl

The Alabama Claims md Arbitration.
The London Telegraph has the following:
''It is understood that her Majestys ministers
have expressed their readiness to deal with
the claims put forward by the Government at
Washington in respect to the Alabama by
referring the matter to arbitration. In so
doing they rescind the refusal of Lord Russell
to admit the idea of arbitration, but at the
same time they recognize those difficulties in
the way Of any such settlement which prompt
ed the decision of the late Minister for For
eign Affairs. Of course, while the principal
of arbitration is accepted, the acceptance must
be subject to the condition that the points re-
ferred shall be found admissible; and the Gov
erDment of the United States will now have
to define what are the exact issues on which it
claims redress for alleged injuries"

SPKKCHRa BY SENATOR'S WADE AND SHER-
MAN.-Hon. Ben. Wade made his hrst speech
OF the campaign In Ohio. ct Marietta Monday.
He said that for thirty years he had ad vocated
the rights of all men. without regard to race,
color. and condition, and that was still the
burden Of his argument He declared that
Vallandigham's doctrines are in all respects
identical with those of the Democratic party
IN Ohio. Negro suffrage, he argued. is the
legitimate result OF the republican principles,
and the terms for reconstruction offered the
South are both just and generous.
Senator John Sherman also made has first
speech Of the campaign at Canton. He advo-
Gated the negro suffrage amendment. large
portion Of hts argument was devoted to a de-
fence Of our national financial system. Our
national banks he thinks great public bless
ing. and he explained and supported the
present 81 stem OF taxation. He said the failure
to collect the whisAey tax Is the one great blot
on our method of taxation.
