| shire is 7,153. Proposition for calling
a Constitutional Convention was defeated
| by 1872 votes.
Government officials have been unable
to discover any evidence that there is a
| filibusterng movement against Cuba.
| Several individuals who have been men
| toned in connection with affairs of State,
say that the story is an entire fabrication.
1t is said that Immediately on receiv-
ing Minister Washburn's report on his
transactions in Paraguay, it was de-
cidc1 and effective instructions were given
to the new Minister. Gen McMahon,
who. with Rear Admiral Davis. is in
readiness to proceed, with an adequate
naval force, to assist to vindicate the ma
tional honor, and to redress the wrongs
said to have been committed by Lopez
| upon American citizens.
Judges Harland and Wescott, of the
Supreme Court, ordered rule nisa re-
turnable on Tuesday next, calling on
Lieut.. Gov. Gleason to show cause why
a writ of quo r0rrnnfo should not be
issued on application. The Times
brings the whole case before the Supreme
Court
The Augusta (Ga) Repnblican has re-
ports purporting to be detailed accounts
of Ku Klux outrages in Warren, and
adjoining counties. It says negroes were
intiinidated from voting the Republican
ticket.
The official vote from all counties in
the State of New York, except Kings

Grants official majority in Minnesota
is 15,44O. Majority for negro suffrage
is 9,416.
A dispatch from Alabama says that
Grants majority will reach 1000.
Negro Suffrage is defeated in Missouri
by $4,000.
The Senatorial fight in Minnesota is
highly exciting. Wilkinson will have
some strength, and may secure his cleo
ton.
From Florida, under date of the 18th,
we have the following: Lieut.. Gov. Glea-
son has issued proclamation, setting
forth that the government has recognized
both branches of the Legislature, by
transacting busines with them; that the
Constitution declares any officer, when
inn cached, shall be deemed under arrest,
and disqualified from dischar.ing any
duties of his office till acquitted by the
Senate He further proclaims the order
that Harrison Reed, Governor Of Florida,
is deemed by the constitution under ar
rest; he is disqualified from performing
the duties Of his office until acquitted by
the Senate; his powers have devolvcd
on him by the constitution to put down
lawlessness. and anarchy will inevitably
cnsue if a man when impeached, however
elected to his station, refuses submission
to arrest imposed by the constitution.
The document is signed by w. III. Glea-
son. Lieut. Gov, Acting Governor, and
countersigned by Geo. Alden, Secretary
of State. 1t bears the impression Of the
seal Of State. Gov. Reed has also a
State seal, said to be duplicate of tie
original.
Gov. Reed arrocates to himself the
right to pronounce impeachment void,
and proceeds in Office as though no i'm
parchment had been preferred
A New York telegram of the 21st
says:
Stories are afloat which seem authorita-
tive. that Vanderbilt and the English
stock holders in the Erie Company have
been using the cable for week past in
the interest of new colossal combina-
ton of stock holders to send an agent
here with all their proxies and Wander
bilt and other shareholders in this coup-
try to get possession of the Erie Railroad
and also to consolidate the Atlantic and
Great Western with the Erie and secure
a monopoly OF the New Jersey Central
Railroad Company as well as a controlling
interest in the Pennsylvania Central,
making such monopoly with the Hud-
son River, Harlem and New York Cen
trail. already in the hands Of Vanderbilt,
as has nver been known on this continent.
Vanderb bilt claims that he can raise here
and abroad over one hundred millions for
the purpose He has in project this step;
he long contemplated and has been Undue
ed by the efforts of Jay Cooke Il Co, to
get possession of the New York Central
He holds that his safety and the public
interest demand this, though all who know
him are aware of his acting entirely for
his own interest. Such is the substance
of reports in Wall street. A movement
of concerted character is being made to
demand an official statement of the affairs
of the Erie Company, with an official
Register Of all shares issued not complied
with. Both board brokers will take off
the Erie from their list
