WASHINGTON.

WAsHINoroN, June l8.-Information
has been lodged with the United States
District Attorney that the steamer Louis
lana was laden with guns, shells and
other ammunition and bound for the
West Indies. The informer wished her
to be libeled, but Attorney Willard,
after personal inspection of the vessel,
refused to detain her, as her proceedings
were not in violation of law. The Gus
tomhouse officers state that the clearance
and departure of the steamer Dolphine
was strictly legal, and no ground for her
detention existed. There seems little
doubt, however, of her warlike character.
Admiral Farragut visited the Naval

ST. LOUIS, June l5.-Testimony was
taken in the Donaldson case to-day.
The courtroom was crowded to excess,
and deep interest was manifested in the
case. Mrs. Donaldson was present and
sat beside her husband, dressed in deep
mourning. The evidence of Samuel
Ray, the porter of the boat, and Law
renee Glover, the cabin boy, who was
handcuffed and confined in the baggage
room with Anderson, the murdered boy,
was substantially the same as given by
them on their examination before the
Coroner's jury, and which has been pub
lished. 1t is very strong against Donald.

LONDON, June l8. AFTER the Duke Of
Devonshire's speech in the House Of
Lords, The Marquis of Salisbury said
he intended to vote for second reading
of the bill, but would not commit himself
to all its details. He stigmstized the
assertion that "the House of Lords, in
opposition to the will Of the nation. re-
fused to express subordinstion to the
House of Commons" and said that if
such were the fact they had better dis
appear as coordinate branches Of the
government. Ia majority of cases the
House of Lords must decide for them.
selves; but when the Commons and the
nation are agreed on q given point, the
functions Of the House Of Lords have
passed away, and the responsibility de-
wolves on the nation and the Commons.
He thought the bill imperious and
illiberal, but did not believe that the
amendments would be contemporary
disregsrded by the House Of Commons.
Lord Colchester, Bishop Of Tuane, OPP
posed the bill, and EArls Stanhope and
Nelson proposed slight amendments, and
supported them briefly.
The press this morning infer from the
tone Of the debate in the House Of Lords
that the passage Of the Irish Church Bill
is certain. The Times says the dis-estab-
lishment is foredoomed, and the mode Of
proceeding remains to be settled. Modi-
ficstions of the bill are row admissible.

Who Carried washington ?


The Tribune says: Washington goes
Republican because majority of its in
hsbitants are honestly in sympathy with
the spirit of the nation at large" If by
this ii means to say that the majority are
in favor of the Radical party, we pro-
foundly pity its powers Of apprehension,
or its enormous talent for conspicuous
inexactness." Take away the improper
influences of the Federal Government,
throw into the Potomac the corruption
funds Of the Radical party, used to
buy up votes, let the multitude of negroes
be suffered to remain at home, in
the cornfelds and kitchens of Virginia
and Maryland, and let the people who live
in this city, and are entitled to vote, vote,
and there is no more doubt than that to-
morrow's sun will rise that the city will
give msjoriiy overwhelmingly against
the Radicals. If the Tribune wishes to
see this thing tried, and has sufficient
honesty Of purpose to brace itself up to,
and sufficient influence with its party to
whip it into scceding to remarkable for
them) proposition Of so much fairness,
il can easily test the point whether the
citizens of Washington are Gin sympa-
thy with the Tribune and the Tribune 3
party or not.
So far as the election on Monday is
concerned, It was decided, not by the
people of Washington at all, but by the
negroes of Virginia and Maryland,
brought here at the expense Of the Radi-
cal demagogues, to overcome by fraud
the honest vote Of the city, and decide
the contest in favor Of that party, they
knowing full we'll that otherwise the cleo
ton would 20 against them.
This being the case, '"the National
Capital has not been "revolutioniz ID, )"

Fro m the Kendall county GILL; Record. June 3.
In the Circuit Court, on Thursday
morning last, was commenced the suit OF
Laureston Walker against VIM. Noble
Davis. TO recover for the loss OF cattle by
plaintiff from disease said to have been
conveyed by Texas cattle belonging to
Major Davis. This suit was commenced
last fall, and is one of great moment to
Davis, as there were several parties who
lost cattle in the same manner who will
probably claim damages if the plaintifin
this suit is successful.
The facts in the case are brieny these;
Some time last summer Major Davis,
who il a large cattle-dealer living In
AuSable Grove, received at his farm
drove of Texas or Cherokee cattle from
Chicago, containing about one hundred
and eighty head. Some strange fatality
seemed to attend the passage OF these
cattle, and many native cattle died along
the route in a strange manner, in from
four to seven weeks after the drove had
passed along the road. The disease
which caused these sudden deaths was
attributed to fever taken by the native
from the Texas cattle, and as many had
died 10 the same manner in other parts
of the State, much excitement was
caused. which our readers doubtless re-
member. Besides cattle lost in Cook
and DuPage counties, through which the
cattle passed, many Of our farmers IN
this county lost theirs-Msjor Davis him.
self losing hundreds of dollars worth.
Mr.. Walker, the plaintiff in this suit,
lost about forty head; N. Loucks, M
Russell, VIM. Ladd and others lost from
three to a dozen head each. The cpl
demic was general in that neighborhood,
and much loss was sustained.
There was law passed by the Legisla-
ture in 1867, forbidding the importation
of Texas cattle into this State during the
summer months, and this law is one OF
the points made against the Major In this
suit. .
Mr.. Walker brings suit for $6OO@.he
value of his lost cattle. The defense set
up that the law of 1867 is uuconstitu-
tional; that the disease was not commu-
nicated by Msjor Davis cattle, and shows
that the native cattle in adjoining pas
lures, and who have fed near these cattle
with only fence between, have never
taken the disease. The case is hard
one for both parties---hard, very hard, for
those farmers to lose their cattle, and
hard for the Major to have to pay all the
damages.
The case went to the jury at 3 o'clock.
They remained out about half an hour,
and returned with verdict for plaintiff,
with $3.50 damages. A motion for new
trial was made.
