Foreign GOssip.

The latest attempt of the Wahabees to
stir up a revolt among the Mohammedan
population OF India is not likely to be frus-
trated without considerable trouble. The
police, as we learn from recent accounts, are
constantly making arrests. One correspon
dent says that the Government has been
"haughtily Indifferent" to the progress Of the
conspiracy but this reproach scarcely seems
justified by what we know Of its proceedings.
When the plot was discovered the leaders
were at once warned that they were under
surveillance. Their followers were oowed by
the knowledge that the Government was fully
prepared to deal with them the moment they
came forth from their hiding places. The
consequence of this may be seen in the de-
nunciations of the new 'orescentade" put
forward by well-known Mohsmmedans.
Moulvie Abbas Ali has told his fellow-coun-
trymen that defeat and suffering will inevi-
tably attend their organization. Although
the Government cannot afford to relax its
vigilance for some time to come, we may
reasonably hope that it has gained too firm
a hold upon the plot and the originators
of it to allow it to do any further mischief.
The annual returns of shipbuilding on the
Clyde have just been published, and, as usual,
compare favorably with those Of the previous
year. The number of vessels built has been
219, representing total of 169,056 tons and
IL, 222 nominal horse power. In 1857, when
the number of vessels constructed was 242
they represented only ll3, 095 tons and IA, S44
nominal horsepower. Of all the builders,
Messrs. Napier seem to have been most highly
favored with orders for ships of war. During
the past year they have built and launched
two monitors, De Buffet and De Tiger, for
the Dutch Government, and have at present
on the stocks two iron-clads, the Audacous
and the Invincible, besides the Hotspur, an
armor- plated ram, for the English navy.
The former vessels are nearly ready for
launching. Messrs. Barclay & Curle have
completed as many as sixteen vessels, repre-
sentiDg in the aggregate 16, 631 tons, and con-
sisting chiefly of sailing ships for the private
trade. Messrs. Randolph & Elder have built
considerable number of steamers for the
principal steamship companies. Messrs. Con-
nell & Co., of Overnewton, have constructed
several composite vessels for the China and
East India trade. Among the remaining
builders we may mention the well known firm
Of Messrs. Card & Co., of Greenock, who have
built and "engined" six steamers (giving g
total of 20,605 tons), principally for transat-
lantic service.

NEWS SUMMARY.
CITY A0nirs.

Recently United States Msrshal Elmsker
MADE seizure OF whi,ky which had been
levied upon by the Sheriff, and took possession
OF 1t. Yesterday the matter was brought 10 the
attention of Judge Cadwalader, who direc.ed
that the whisky should be restored to the
Sheriff, but instructed the Marshal that after
the Sheriff had disposed of it he could again
take possession OF 1t, as it had been condemned
as cOntraband,
Yesterday afternoon the body Of the miss
ing clerk of Messis. Caldwell Co. was dlscov-
cred in the ruins Of the store, Chesnut street,
above Ninth, on the second foor, near Chestnut
street. From the fact that a ring and bunCh
OF keys known to belong TO J. Fontatne Polk
were found near the remains, they are believed
to have been those OF tnat person. Ar. Polk
was In the tWenty-third year OF his age and was
from Winchester, Va. He was unmarried. HIS
mother was in the city at the time of his melau-
Choly death she having arrlvGi on visit the

Davis II. Messenger recently Postmaster
at Pottstown, Pa, had hearing before United
States Commissioner Aubrey h. Smith, yester-
day, on the charge of embezzlement. The
testimony was to the effect that short time
since a draft was received by the Postmaster at
Philadelphia, from the Postmaster General, for
$749 59, on Davis II. Messenger. "a the amount
OF deficiency in his account, aud Postmaster
Bingham was directed to cole; It the money;
that defendant was notified of the fact but paid
no attention TO il. Upon the suretes OF the eX-
Postmaster being threatened with suit they paid
the amount over 10 the BOSJ OIuCe department.
The counsel for Mr.. Messenger argued that the
act of the suteties relieved him from liability TO
prosecution; but Mr.. Valentine, on behalf OF the
United States, thought that 1t did not, and the
Commissioner coinciding with him, he held the
accused in $2500 for his appearance at court.
Andrew j. WhItemau had a hearing before
Alderman Kerr yesterday, on the charge OF
obtaining goods under false representations.
Philip BelsiDger, of the house of Sheridan d
Co., testified that the defendant came to the
store on Friday last and negotiated for thirty
barrels of alcohol for the firm of Alsop Il Co of
New York. Supposlng it to be the well-knOwn
and reputable firm of Alsop & Co., and de-
iendant producing letters of credit, the sale
was made. Drafts were given in payment, and
the alcohol was delivered. Subsequently, upon
the suspicion that something was wrong, in
quiry gas made and it was asCertarned that
there we're two firms of Alsop & Co. in the
same street, one Of which stands high, and the
other does not. Since then the alcohol could
not be traced nor the money collected on the
draft, the person on whom the drafts were
drawn not being found The accused told the
Alderman that he was the mere agent of other
parties, and he acted honestly IN that trausac.
