A NEW DANGER.-Within the past six
months we have recorded numerous css.
uAlties from the explosion Of articles never
known to explode before, such as kegs of
beer, casks Of molAsses, sweet potatoes,
mince pies, &C., &c, and we supposed the
"cycle" Of such accidents had made the
turn; but now the domestic economy Is
threatened with o new danger; the fiat
irons are beginning to blow up in a way
that Is very dangerous. AS a warning to
households that harbor this destructive
missile, hitherto supposed to be harmless,
we copy the following from the Provi.
dence Journal Of Friday: 5t
Only q day or two ago we chronicled
curious accident occurring to family
living at No. 4 Abbott's place, viz the
explosion Of one OF EiswRld's patent fiat
irons, with consequent damage to the sur
roundings and fright 10 the family. We
have another precisely similar accident
TO record, which occurred on Saturday
last TO a family living at No. 195 Charles
street. This iron was on the stove, and
the women of the family had Just taken
from the stove an old fashioned iron to
use, when the new tangled thing went off
with q noise like gun, sending the
handle Of the iron through the ceiling
out Of sight, driving piece OF the
iron also into the ceiling, scattering
black dust or sand all over the room,
blowing OIL both the stove covers, and
frightening the women severely. AS In
the former case no one was hurt, fortunate
ly. The noise of the explosion was heard
across the street, where It was thought the
boys Of this woman were playing with
firearms in the back yard, while the boys
in the back yard, exclaiming Fourth Of
july" ran round in front ot the house to
see the sport. The two flat-irons were Of
the same make, and in both cases this
was the first time they had been used to
any extent by their present ,possessors.
The flat.irons are similar In shape to q
common flat.iron, and have q face oi brass
welded to the iron. The iron seems to
have been made hollow, and filled with
suIneLuluS ellueE " mdho IL uOLu bu0 uCut
or to prevent the top Of the iron from get
ting hot and burning the hand, or to lessen
the expense of the iron, and the trouble
is probably in this filling. In both in
stances the brass remained firmly attach
ed to the iron and the sides whole, while
the top Of the iron left. it.
MEM: We suggest to the boys that
here is devise for making noise on the
coming Fourth which the city ordi,
nance does not reach and which the police
cannot interfere with. The ordinance
forbids the firing Of cannon, guns, pistols,
crackers, torpedoes, squibs, &C., but II
says nothing about Aat.irons. To explode
the latter may he little perilous, as no
one can foresee just when they will 60
off; but danger is what gives spice to the
GLORIOUS Fourth" and can be no objec'
ton to fervid and patriotic young America

The Response of the u. s. 10 the
Decision of the Roard.

OGCAbAOu VI luG bOAIQs
NEW YORK, June 29-A Washington
dispatch says the following are the in.
structions received by Mr.. Bancroft Dayis
at Geneva as the response Of the United
States to the declaration made by the
Board of Arbitrators on the subject Of in
direct damages, and which he officially
communicated to the Tribunal:
"The declaration made eby the Tribunal
on the 10Th inst, individually and collec.
lively, respecting the claims presented by
the United States for an award by the
Tribunal Of first, loss in the transfer of
American commercial marine to the
British flag; second, enhanced payments
Of insurance; third, prolongation Of the
war, and the addition Of large sum to the
cost OF the war and the suppression OF the
rebellion, is accepted by the President of
the United States as the determination of
their judgment on the important question
Of public law involved.
Theagent Of the United States Is au.
thorized to-day that consequently the
above mentioned claims will not be fur.
ther insisted on before the Tribunal by the
United States, and may be excluded from
all consideration in any award that may
be made to this government as decision
OF the Tribunal.
Yesterday Lord Tenterden, agent of the
British government, stated that he was
authorized to say that Her Majesty's gov.
ernment found nothing in the declaration
of the Arbitrators to which they could not
assent consistently, with their view of the
Interpretation ot the effect Of the Treaty OF
Washington, and assuming that the Arbi-
traitors would, on q statement by the agent
OF the United States declare that the in.
direct claims are henceforth to be ex.
cluded from their consideration. he was
instructed on that being done to with.
draw the application. for adjournment
made by him on the 18th inst, and to pre-.
sent the British argument. The Tribunal
thereupon formally made the declaration
desired by Lord Tenterden, and the appli.
cation for adjournment was at once
Withdrawn and the British argument
was presented. It is understood at the
State Department that while Charles
Francis Adams, in discussion with his
colleagues, fairly presented the views of
the American government. He finally
acqulesced in the opinion Of Sir Alexar.
der Cockburn, the British Arbitrator, and
in so doing, carried with him other Ar.
bitrators.

is that women cannot be eligible 10 elec.

ApprehenslOns OF a Combined Indian
EH- War rtt

ST. LOUIS, June 2O-The Denver Tribune
says editorially that vsrious cofrespon-
dents of that paper in Southern Colorado
and New Mexico state that extensive and
combined depredations are seriously ap.
pretended in the sparsely settled parts Of
those territories. The Kiowas, Arraphoes,
Cheyennes, Camanches, Nayajoes and
Apaches held frequent Councils during
the past winter, at which it was endeav.
ored to dissipate all trivial prejudices and
effect combination for general Indian
war. The recent murders and robberies
in New Mexico, Arizona, Texas and other
places are referred to as an evidence Of
the intent Of the Indians, but whether a
complete combination has been effected is
not known.
The Tribune further state that letter
from a prominent United States officer,
dated Fort SDl, June 18th, says that the
warriors OF the Apaches, Cheyennes and
Arrapahoes are organizing ostensibly for
an attack on the Utes Of Colorado, but the
officer thinks q raid on the frontier Is
really their object, and the government
authorities are doing all they can to break
up the movement.

Four out Of the nine candidates on the
Democratic State ticket took an active
part in the rebellion, viz: Mr.. MATTHEWS,
Of Greenbrier, candidate for Attorney
General; Mr.. BYRNE, Of Clay, candidate
for Superintendent OF Schools, and Messrs
HoFFMAN and RAYMOND, candidates for
the Supreme Bench. We notice by an.
nouncement in the Conservative that two
more, viz Judge CAMDEN. Of Harrison
and PERRY HAYS, Of Gilmer are candi-
dates for Senate in the Third District.
We hear that very generally in the
Southern hall Of the State, the ex.Con-

OF their party for the local Office and the

thus elbowed to the rear are feeling sore

A PARTISAN journalist, who evidently
possesses the full French capacity for
full generallzstions, has appalled, England
by q calculation which apparently proves
that the strikes in that country, ii success.
iul, will injure production TO the extent
Of $780, 100000 year. The London
Times predicts that Great Britain will
lose her industrial superiority in q decade.
