Dodge, Edward A. wright for rape com
mitted upon the person of Caroline A. Days,
at Somerville on the 9Th of Oct last, was con-
ciuded on Monday last at Wiscasset, and
resulted IN general verdict of guilty The
Rockland Gazette says the details of the crime
as exhibited by the evidence. were simplv
atrocious, and the character of the, defence
was little less infamous than the crime h
self. The verdict brands it as a mass of ner.
jury and corruptionwhich must have been as
revolving to the jury as it was to the public
in attendance. County Attorney Farinpton
conducted the case for the government with
signal ability, and great praise is awarded
him for his closing argument which was a
model of its kind, clean, clear and polished,
a merciless exposure of the wickedness and
corruption of the defendants and their wit
nesses, a triumphant vindication of the char
acter of Miss Davis, an unanswerable pre-
sentation of the case of the government, and
a most eloquent appeal for the protection of
society from the attacks of drunken and Ii
centious scoundrels. The community is to
be congratulated that the corrupting influ-
ences, which in other States too often prevent
the conviction and punishment of the greatest
offenders, have no effect upon juries in this
State, but criminals of every grade and station
are sure to receive just retribution for their
crimes, and society the full measure of pro.
lection that results from firm and unsulied
administration of the laws.

FROM WASHINGTON.

Washington, Jan. 90. Secretary Fish has
received the following telegram from Moran,
Charge de Affairs at London, dated London
Sunday morning, Jan. Goth: 1.-THE German
ambassadors here have officially informed me
that the capitulation of all the Paris forts, and
an armistice for three weeks, by land and. sea,
was signed at about o'clock last evening at
Versailles, by Bismarck and Favre. The
army of Paris will remain prisoners of war in
the city, but it is not known whether they
are to be disarmed or not. No details have
yet been received. Bernstein thinks it i'm
portant that the arMistic extend over the sea,
and it should be made known as widely as
possible.

FROM MEMPHIS.

Memphis, Jan. %. The steamer w. r.
Arthur, from New Orleans for Louisville
which left here late last night, exploded her
boilers, fourteen miles above this city, tearing
away the forward part of her cabin. The
boat took fire and burned until the bow sunk
The night was very dark, and after the explo-
sion most of the passengers rushed down to
the lower deck, many in confusion jumping
into the river. When the bow sank the waves
swept from the lower deck all who had gath
cred there. Captain b. Rolaski, the COM
mander, says that he had entered half an
hour before the explosion, and felt himself
lifted up and knocked down by the stairs of
the Texas" which fell upon him. lie ex-
tricated himself, got an axe, and cut his way
out, saving himself, wife, and child, whom he
took to the ladies' cabin, and left in charge
of Alexander Frager. The boat took fire
several times, but the captain with the assist
ance of several others, succeeded in eXtin-
gushing it. Had the cabin passengers re-
manned in the cabin all would have been saved.
But owing to fright nearly all rushed down
stairs. The Captains leg was badly twisted
and he had several Commissions on his head
His wife and her sister were seriously hurt
Captain J. A. Frazier of Cincinnati, a pas
senger, says that he and his wife were in bed
but not asleep, when the explosion took place
He ran out on the guard and seeing the state
of affairs. he fastened to the cabin and found
that all the ladies except his wife and Mrs Bro
tiski, had left Seeing that the life boat had
been taken away he turned his attention to
putting out the fire. His feet were badly
frozen, but beyond that he and his wife were
uninjured.
About o'clock this morning. Capt. Dalke,
of the tug Report, heard a man shouting on
the river. A skiff was sent out and the man
rescued from cotton bale. He was one of
the survivors. Steam was raised on the tugs
Little Grant and Report. and the ferry boat
Excelsior, which went to the scene and picked
up several persons from cotton bales and
planks on their way, and brought all that
could be found to the city. Many were half
dead, and a large number were badly hurt.
Seventy-five persons are certainly saved, but
many of them are badly bruised, scalded, or
frozen. About sixty lives are supposed to
have been lost by the disaster.
LATER.
Memphis, Tenn, JAM 30. 1t is now be-
lieved that eighty lives were lost by the
burning of the steamer, w. r. Arthur. All
the wounded are doing well and will probably
recover. The second engineer, who was on
duty at the time, says that everything was
working well up to the time of the explosion.
The boiler was carrying less than 100 pounds
of steam and was allowed l2G. He had just
tried the water and found it all right. One
boiler was blown aft of the rudder post and
smashed the yawl, while the other is believed
to to have been driven through the hull caus-
ing the steamer to sink.

that the Order is enjoying fair prosperity the
interest being upon the increase. From the

is good, its expenditures economical, the re-

1t is an old saying that fashions recur every
seven years. Whether the regular period is
seven or any other number of years, we are
not prepared to state, but it is an undeniable
fact, that fashions do recur, oft-times with
material notifications, yet the general styles
are the same. 1t is not at all remarkable that
occasionally the wonderful fertility of inven-
ton on the part of fashionable leaders should
succumb to the incessant demand, and by
necessity be compelled to resort to old time
fashions for so-called novelties. This con-
tinual desire for something new, and conse-
ouent unceasing change, although in many
respects having an injurious influence by
greatly increasing extravaganza, yet the BEN
efits derived recompense somewhat for the
evil effects; for much larger amount of
