Marquette, Michigan, last night, and
over one hundred buildings in the bust
ness portion of the town, including for
ty stores, the United States land office,
custom house, county treasurer's office
and all the records, were destroyed. The

Reports from Canada having gained
circulation to the effect that the Fenians
are concentrating at thispoint for raid,
it is deemed proper to contradict such
statements. No unusual gatherings of
Fenians have occurred, and it is believed
there is not single member of the Or
ganization here outside of the citizens
of Buffalo. The sensational reports prob
ably originated with spectators.
BOSTON, June Is.
Yesterday afternoon the legislature
was prorOgued by the Governor till the
first Wednesday in January next, with

are unwilling to do or say anything to pref

since the case has come before the public
here and the accused being entitled to fair

not refrain from the foregoing candid ex-
preston of opinion in the premises.

The Wrong Nan Hung.

The Frankfort (Ky) Commonwealth
furnishes the following in relation 10
the negro who was recently hung by
Kentucky mob. 1t is strongly sug-
gestive of similar instance which oc-
Cured in Kentucky a few years ago,
and is forcible commentary on mob
Justice:
M. John Henderson, coal dealer
and man of reliability. states to as
that on the day on which the deed
was committed, he was engaged with a
number of hands, IN hauling coal from
the river bank above the wooden
bridge. He had a boat anchored in
the river, some ten feet from the
wharf, to which a single plank was run
out. The carts were backed up to the
edge of the wharf, and the coal was
brought in Jumps from the boat along
this plank and thrown into the carts.
During the early part of the morning
he had two hands employed in carrying
coal. Finding they could not keep the
carts going, he hired the negro who
was hung, Jim Macklin, who began
work at eleven o'clock A. M. The
negro was put in the boat with the
other two. Mr.. Henderson stood al
the end of the plank, on the wharf,
from noon till the whistle of the steam
mill blew at five and halt o'clock in
the evening, never being absent tAere-
from except from one to two minutes,
when he, with the three hands, went
to the fire on shore to warm, and re-
turned Immediately. His presence was
required at the end of the plank In or
der to prevent the carts from backing
into the river. He never left his sta
ton for single moment, save as above
mentioned, and during all this time
the negro Jim was at work in the boat,
and never went out of his sight.
When the alarm was given that the
girl had fallen over the cliff, the negro
Jim was in the boat. When the Off
GERS came to arrest him, he informed
them that the negro was innocent and
had been with him during tire entire
time when the offense was alleged to
have been committed. To the truth
of these facts, Mr.. Henderson states he
is willing to make oath, and that they
are corroborated by his son, Robert
Henderson, and by Thomas Bybee.
Richard Chiles, John Shannon and
Richard Penlin-all white men, and
engaged In work at the wharf-and by
some seven negroes, likewise employed
at the wharf. MIR. Henderson further
states that when he was informed the
negro was to be hung by the mob. he
went TO the Catholic priest and asked
him to intercede with them and obtain
trial for the negro. The priest did
so, bnt his efforts proved unavailing.
