The decision of Judge Barnard in the
Municipal frauds case IN New York. has
astonishcd all parties. TIE Tammanyites
are astounded AZ the temerity of one
they had considered their own, whilst
the opponents of Tammany ask each
other in anusemcn. "Can any good
thing come out of Nazareth 2" But the
iaet remains that Judge Barnard has
denounced the proceedings of the Ring
as highway robbery, and has made
permanent all injunction to restrain the
city officials from levylng taxes or pay
ing ont any more money-except for
specified purposes necessary to the daily
working of the city government-until
certain reforms are made in the manage
ment of city affairs. It is no. surprising
that great excitement exhas in New
York, and that the decision is the topic
OF discussion everywhere. What is to
follow, Is now the question OF the day,
which no one seems able to answer.
One thing only is conceded certain, that
the days Of the Ring are numbered.
The point now is to wrest from the
pl"ndering officials some of their ill.got-
ten gains. The task is hopeless.

DESPERATE REVOLT took place in the
Nevada State prison, at Carson, on SuAday-
10th. So desperate was the break, that a short
account of il will not fail to enlist the interest
of the reader. Nearly every officer and guard
and several of the prisoners were wounded
Lt Gov. Denver was shot through the hip.
While the captain of the guard was locking in
the prisoners he was feEed with bottle,
rendering him insensibe. lie was dragg, d
into the cell just AZ sle ether prisoners yushed
on him to finish him. The band then cut q
hole through into the apartments occupied by
the wife and daughter OF the 1t. Coy, and
entered before an alarm was given. The pris-
oncrs were all armed with slung shots and
steele bars. Denver met them, revolver in
thief, the leader, hitting and stunning him,
but was soon Knocked down his skull frac,ul-
ed and shot through the thigh by the convicts
with his own revolver. Robert Dcdmnn, Il
convict for life was accompanying Denver,
and as the latter fell, he seized chairs and
fought like tiger knocking down FIVE prls-
oners, one over the baustmding and down
stairs. His heroic conduct saved thc lic of
the 1t Gov. Dedman was eventually knock
ed senseless nnd left for dead, but was only
slightly wounded, as was Clifford, who made
his way down stairs, followed by the crowd,
who at once seized the armory of the prison,
the office, clothing, ammunition, sc. Mat

BuRGLAR1ous DEvELoPMENTs.-Joseph |.
Lake, who was arrested on the 28d ult. for
stealing pocket-book, small amount of money,
gloves, &C., from the Bay State house, where he
was employed as night Waterman, seems to be
not beginner in the business, rs shown by
facts since brought to light. When he was
searched, lot of tickets belonging TO the Port
land and Kennebec railroad, from Gardner TO
various points on the line OF the road, were
found among his accumulation of spells. This
fact led Assistant Marshal Wilson to investigate
the matter and ascertain how the tickets came
into Lakes possession, which he did by writing
to Mr.. j. W. Clapp, general ticket agent of the
road, who came on yesterday, accompanied by
Mr.. B. A. Neal, agent at the Gardiner station.
These gentlemen identified the tickets as
lot stolen from the depot in Gardiner
in February, 1869, at which time it was
broken open and robbed of about 5000 worth of
tickets and small amount of money. When
Lake was tried for the larceny from the Bay
State house the other day, he was fined $40 and
costs, and sent to Jail on account of not having
money enough to pay, although he had some.
This fine has not cen paid, and he is held for
the Maine robbery, and will be taken to that
state to-day. A short time before the depot
was broken into, as above stated, Lake
and brother were engaged in the grocery
business in Augusta; since that time what he
has been doing is not fully known. For while he
was ustensibly in the pawnbroking business
with the same brother in Providence. He had
been in this city but few weeks when his
thieving propensitics became known. His APP
pearancc is not in his favor.

The following interesting letter from Com
mander Selfrdge, of the United States steamer
Nipsic, has just been received by Mr.. Cyrus
Butler of New York:
"AsPINwALL, Feb. 9, 1871.
"Sir: | am not very well; just recovering
from an attack of fever, brought on by eX-
posture and fatigue in my recent explorations.
81 am quite sanguine that | have found a
practicable and profitable route for canal.
"The Atrato is navigable for the largest ships.
So is the Cacarica for twelve miles, which re-
duces the length Of the line to less than fifty
miles.
81 crossed the watershed at height, I am
confident of not more than three hundred feet.
1t was correctly measured by my pocket bar; at
one hundred and seventy feet was not more
than ten feet wide at the crest, and the base not
above the level of the sea have only estimated
and may BE- in error. There is plenty of waite
for lock canal, though my preference is for a
through cut, of course, unless our estimates
reach too high figure.
"The foundation of the hills is a soft trap,
very easily worked; indeed nothing better
could be asked.
81 have completed all my arrangements for
the Atlantic slope, and am now on my way for
the gulf of San Miguel, to start the work from
the Pacific side.
81 hope and pray that may be successful.
Inc naroOr Oh tne mouth OF the AtratO Is per-
feet, and, after examination, consider the work
OF deepening one of the mouths of the Atrato
but a small affair.
"Tell Mr.. Kelly intend to examine another
route from Simon bay, which is a short distance
below Cupica bay, across the dividing ridge,
following the Nappi river to the Atrato. Ma
tives assure me that they go in two and a halt
days from Atrato to the Pacific. They take but
five hours in the transit from the head of canoe
navigation 10 the Pacific, and the hills are not
higher than our topsai yard. Trautwine's line
crosses below this river, the one he estimates to
cost S350,O00,00O.
"Can Mr.. Kelly tell me whether Trautwine
speaks of the valley of Napipi2

Commander IL s N"

WASHINGTON, d. c., March 4.
THE SOUTHERN PACIFIC BILL.
The Southern Pacific railroad bill has at last
passed both houses, to the great joy of most Of
the southern members. Those who have this
line in charge say that work will instantly be-
gin on it, and that it will be completed at an
early day.
AN IMPORTANT QUESTION.
Nothing definite is yet known in regard to the
ways and means committee of the next con-
gress. Gen. Garfield's friends are still confident
that he will be made chairman, but the high
tariff men assert that new arrangement has
been made, which will put man not heretofore
talked of at the head of the committee Speaker
Blaine has been interviewed on the subject, but
is quite retcent
THE NEXT CONGRESS AND sANTo DOMINGO.
The vote of the democratic house caucus in
favor of the briefest possible spring session,
renders it quite possible that Joint resolution
of adjournment will be carried at an early day.
1t is ascertained that very decided majority of
the new house is in favor of a speedy adjourn
ment, and it is thought the senate stands the
same; but much depends upon the president.
Some of his friends in the house have advised
him to attempt the annexation of San Domingo
by joint resolution, which will require the
presence of the house. The more wise and
prudent members of both houses hold that this
is bad advice, and that it will be much easier to
carry a San Domingo treaty through the senate
by two-thilds vote than to carry majority of
the house for joint resolution of annexation.
If the president insists upon this plan, which
was first suggested by Gen. Butler, and is still
advocated by him, it is probable that congress
will remain six weeks at least.
CLOSING HOURS OF THE SESSION.
The prospect of passing all the appropriation
bills is not very bright this evening. The sem
ate has wasted most of the day in debate, and
it is feared that one or two of the bills will be
agreed to at so late an hour that there will not
be time left for their enrolment. There is also
danger that the two houses will not agree on
the gislative and judicial bill. The senate so
far insists upon putting on number of unnec-
essary items, which have no proper connection
with it, and the house will not give way.
No bigjobs have got through either house in
the course of the day. Unusual watchfulness
has characterized the proceedings Of the house,
and it was impossible to get up any bad meas
ure. A dozen plans are on foot to push
through important private bills in the course of
the night, but they will hardly succeed, unless
they are tackled on to the appropriation bills in
the senate, and the house is disposed this eve
ming to let one or two of the appropriation bills
fail rather than allow the senate to force any
items on which do not properly belong there.
