The radical journals and leaders have been
sadly troubled and perplexed about Gen.
Sherman, IN view OF his recent speech at New
Orleans in which he brings such severe in
dictment against Gen. Grant and the ku-klux
legislation ofcongress. To mitigate its effect,
they have seized with greedy avidlty a des-
patch sent to the New York Tribune by Gov
Conway, in which another post-prandial
speech of Gen. Sherman in New Orleans is re-
ported, made day or two later, in which the
old hero complains that former speech had
been unsupported. The ''former speech" allu-
ded to is presumed, Of course, to be the one in
which he pitches so severely into Grant and
the radicals. 1t appears, however, that the
"tormer speech" which the General alluded to
was one made several days beforehand to the
Union Club in New Orleans, in which he was
reported as saying very .laudatory and full
some things about Gen. Bragg, Baurcgard,
and other rebel leaders. The other speech,
censuring Grant and the radical legislation of
congress, was first published in the Memphis
Aralonche, and not until after the speech which
Conway reports to the 7riJlne was made.

Foreign News.

The news of the week from France shows
little variation from that of last week-there
has been vigorous fighting and victories are
claimed on both sides The Versallllsts, how
ever, have made one grand step forward in
taking Fort Issy, and in rendering Fort Van

by all outsiders as the "beginning of the end"
while the insurgents themselves seem to be
utterly cast down. The commune casts the
blame of the disasters upon Gen. Rossel, while

dissensions and inefficiency of the commune,

The penipotentiaries in session for several
months past at Brussels fixing up treaty of

CoHNEcrICUT.-As every body expected,
the radical Legislature ofConnecticut went be-
hind the official canvass OF the vote for gov
ernor in that state, by which English was de-
clar Cd elected, to inaugurate Jewell, the de-
feated radical candidate. They found, or at
least pretended to find, fraud of 100 votes in
the 4th ward, Hartford, in favor Of English,
and although the democrats in the Legislature
had unearthed frauds in other portions of the
state that had counted more than 100 votes in
favor Of Jewell, they were choked down and
Jewell has been inaugurated. 1t is just what
all knew would be the result, and nobody is
surprised, but it is none the less rascally on
that account.

Fire,

Yesterday morning, at half past three O'Clock,
Jim Sullivan, the bar tender, or more politely,
the clerk OF the 'wet grocery" department of
Chris. Walters establishment, on Madison st.,
retired to his bed in tho front room over the
store, and went to sleep, forgetting to extinguish
his lamp He was dreaming about his girl and
how she kissed him with loud noise That
was whom the lamp busted, How she Rugged
him and breathed her warm, in fact, hot breath
in his face, and smotherod him with oa,esses.
THAT was when the bed had caught fire and the
air was getting hot around him. when George
Nattinger and Mr.. Shapey, Of the bank next
door, had got into his room, and just as jimmy
thought his girl was choking him to DEATH they
pulled him out Of bed, and probably saved his
life, though they did "bust up" his sweet dream.
The night Waterman had discovered the fire,
and failing to arouse the clerk, had Weakened the
bank clerks in the next building. A few squirts
from Babcock extinguisher, in the hands of
Sam. Porter, and a few pals of water, saved the
building. The bed and Jmmy's clothing, the
woodwork around that corner of the room, and
the windows were burned out. Damages, $50.
