Speaking to Capt. A. Clark, con.

learned that the new company, or
rather Mr.. Allen, intends constructing
the line on the cheapest plan possible,
and will, in all likelihood, accept of
bonuses from corporations, with a view
to running tbs road through their
towns, Work on the bridge near
Jacksonport has been stopped; and We
would not be at all surprised to hear
that the bridge would be placed nearer
JacksonpoIt and depot established
in that town. The bridge over Little
Red is also to be roconsidered, and it
is probable that the line will be chang.
ed to the old survey, so as to bring the
bridge above navigation, thus avoiding
draws point which they consider
Of vast importance. OF course this
cannot be inlly relied upon, but our
conversation with railroad officials con-
nected with the road embraced in
substance these views.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 25.-Secretary Boutwell,
was before the Ways and Means Committee this

and the policy of abolishing it at this time. He
does notagree with the Commissioner of Internal
Revenue on the question, aud is opposed to any
action being taken at this session. The Secre-
tary estimates that the revenue from tax on
incomes this year would reach fourteen mil

JIMMY HAGGERTY.
Tie IL Going the Way OF All FIes

He IL GOInR the Way OF All Flesh
of all the famous roughs that Philadelphia
has been afflicted with, the most reckless, dar-
lng and interruptions was Jimmy Haggerty.
He had been the terror of the city up to the
time when he escaped out of the clutches of the
law by breaking through posse of Mayor
Fox's Democratic policemen, and fed to New
York. 1t would be quite impossible to specify
even the more notorious of the crimes he has
committed here.
In New York he carried himself with the
same disdain of all law and order that he had
manifested here, shooting stabbing, punching,
robbng whenever an opportunity presented
itself.
His last achievement was an attempt to kill
Freddy the Blacksmith but as all villains are
said to have as many lives as cat, Reddy recov-
cred. By the following special despatch which we
have Just received, it will be seen that these two
roughs resumed their vendetta this morning,
aud, according to its contents, Jimmy is NOR
tally wounded.
NEW YORK, Jan. 25.-James Hagoerty, a
notorious character, was shot early this morn
ing by William Varley better known as "Reddy
the Blacksmish," in a saloon at the corner of
Broadway and Houston street, and is mortallv
wounded Haggerty first fired three shots at
Varley without effect, when his opponent re-
turned spiritedly, and Jimmy went down. 1t is
thought he cannot possibly recover.

General Schenck's Detention Fabrication.
special DesnGteh 10 The EUeHt'Ig Telegraph.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 5-The statement sent
to the afternoon papers of Boston and Philadel-
phia yesterday, to the effect that General
Schencks departure for England is delayed on
account of instructions alleged to have been
received by the English Minister concerning the
Alabama claims, is pronounced in official circles
to be fabrication. Senator Sumner authorizes
the statement that he has not written or spoken
to Secretary Fish about the opposition to any
proposed concessions which the President might
make with regard to the mode of
Settling the Alabama Claims.
The only communication affecting our Gov
ernment recently received by the British Minis
ter relates to the settlement of
The Fishery Question,
which Great Britain desires to be considered and
adjusted at an early day. This question will be
covered by Schenck's instructions.
The New Congress.
The action of the House Judiciary Committee
in authorizing it's chairman to-day to report ad-
versely upon the bill to repeal the act requiring
Congress to organize on the 4th of March is re-
garded as settling the point that there will be at
least two months session of the new Congress.
The general feeling among the members elect is
to take up and consider the business which will
go over from this session for want of time.

A LUDICRoUs AFFAIR.-A Jerseyman came
to this city yesterday and purchased horse, for
which he gave $500. Rejoiced at having secured
good bargain, he commenced paying his re-
spects to John Barleycorn," and leading his
horse by hitchiug-strap, ne wended his way
down town. On arriving at Shtppen street he
tied the animal to a post and stepped into
tavern to take another ''smie." During his
temporary absence dishonest youth of ragged
appearance, named John FallOn, came along, ard
seeing no one about cut the strap and led the
horse away. Some police officers observing
Fallon leading such valuable animal and
deeming something wrong, took him into GUS
tody. Meanwhile the Jerseymau had become
so elated that staggering out of the groggery he
proceeded to his home across the river utterly
oblivious of the fact that he had bought horse
during the day. After making inquiries the
officers learned that the animal had been stolen
from resident of New Jersey, and they after
diligent search learned his name He was noti-
fed to appear at the Central Station this after
noon, at which place Fallon will have a hearing.
