to the Navy Department, which has re-
ceived nothing as yet.
The friends of Senator Mitchell, Of
Oregon, here, say that in view OF the
wide currency given to the scandal of his
private life, he has been advised to resign.
The argument used is that while his
change of name will not invalidate his
claim to seat in the Senate, and also
that his present anomalous domestic re-
lations may not be sufficient ground
for expulsion, still it is advisable that the
State of Oregon should not be repre-
scented by a Senator whose influence will
be paralyzed by the misfortunes which
surround him. 1t is not believed, how
ever, that Mitchell will resign, but will
endeavor to make as plausible state
ment as possible, consistent with the
charges made against him.
ALBANY, n. Y, June 10.
The Court Of Appeals were unanimous
in their opinion granting Stokes new
trial. There are two opinions written,
one by the Governor, the other by Rap
palo. The charge is held to be erroneous,
on the point that the law presumes MUIR
der from the fact of killing, and calls on the
prisoner to mitigate or justify. Also,
there were errors in excluding proof of
threats by the deceased to kill the pris-
oner; also in permitting Mrs. Morse to
contradict Jennie Turner in a collateral
manner.

sound of the battle was heard, the COM

o'clock in the afternoon, bat was loung-
ing all day in his tent; and ON account OF
his neglect large number of officers and
men were killed and wounded. DR.. De
Witt, Assistant Surgeon of the United
States Army, especially charges Gillen
with neglect, for leaving the wounded OIL
the field for thirty-six hours before orders
were given to bring them in for treat

LONDON, June 8.
The total loss of the burning of the
Alexandria Palace to-day, is estimated at
$4,000, 000-insured for 100000. The
fire was caused by careless workman.
No one was killed, as reported, but sew
eral were injured. The supply of water
was scarce, hence the rapidity with which
the fire spread. Within half an hour
after the alarm was given, the entire
structure was in flames. One by one the
great domes by which it was surmounted
fell in. The large organ was destroyed
but some valuable pictures and other
works were saved.
In the House of Lords to-day, Earl
Russell introduced bill for the better
government of Ireland, which abolishes
the Office of Lord Lieutenant, and provides
that the voice of eight jurors out of twelve
will suffice for verdict. The obj ct of
the measure is to restrict the power of
the priesthood, and secure the conviction
of criminals.
A dispatch from Dublin says a great
fire is raging in the lumber yards of that
city. The crowd, whose object was plum
der, interfered with the fremen and
stoned them. A detachment of police
was ordered out to preserve order. The
latter charged the mob, wounding one
man. The Mayor of the city was hit by
one OF the stones. Intense excitement
prevails in the vicinity of the scene, and
during the charge of the police it was
fearful. Property to the value of one
hundred thousand pounds has been de-
stroyed.
HAVANA, June T.
News received from the City of Mexico
to the 9th ult. The foreign priests, re-
Gently in custody, have been expelled
from the country, as pernicious for
eigners. The American Minister inter-
fered in behalf of two naturalized Irish
men, but President Tejada refused to
allow them to remain. These arrests
show Tejada's unwillingness to protect
the Church party, although he has
hitherto favored it.

OLD SHOES. Everything tangible
seems to have two or more states OF ex-
istence. Now it is quite possible that
you think, if you look very sharpeiy at
an old shoe when you throw it away, you
will know it again if il ever comes back
to you. But it don't always follow.
One of these days you may button your
dress with an old pair of slippers; comb
your hair with boot, or grasp cast-on
gaiter while you are eating your dinner.
You don't see how this can be? Well,
we'll tell you. Old shoes are turned to
account by manufacturers in the follow
ing manner: They are cut into very small
pieces, and kept for couple of days in
chloride of sulphur. The effect Of this
is to make the leather hard and brittle.
Next, the material is Withdrawn from the
action of the chloride CT sulphur, washed
with water and dried. When thorough
ly dry, it is ground to powder and mixed
with some substance like glue, or gum,
that causes it to adhere together. 1t is
then pressed into moulds and shaped
into buttons, combs, knife-handles, etc.
So you will see how it may come to pass
that you will comb your hair with n
boot, and fasten your clothes with a
slipper.

The news Of the attack upon the Mo.

A Family Of Monomaniacs.

The most remarkable case of hallu-
~cination, probably, that has ever oc-
CURED, is recorded of a family in Balti-
more. Medical men say that the-books
contain in its way so extraordinary. A
whole famiIy-father. mother and SON
are under the same delusion. Their
name is Sheaf. They are quiet, inoffen-
sive people, live secluded and work at
tailoring. They all imagine that aamur-
der has been committed in Baltimore, of
which the authorities refuse to take cog
~nizance,, because they have all been
hushed by a money gag, and they are
equally honest and earnest in this belief.
They have made every effort to get the
matter investigated. The visionary
murder is in their own family, and by a
relative, and they have a deep interestin
generating themselves from completely.
Finding that the police authorities of
Baltimore would not sympathize with
them, they adj made a pilgrimage to
Washington and interviewed the Presi-
dent. They were put in charge of some
Washington officers, whoazreturnedw with
them to Baltimore. Explanations fol-
lowed, and they were advised to go
home and trouble themselves no more
about the murder Physicians pro-
nounce them entirely rational upon
every other subject but that of the sup
posed murder. -..s .@ -

The Murder Of Gen. Canby-AdditiOnal
? ~ Particulars.

The following additional particulars of the
massacre of the Peace Commissioners have
been furnished Capt. Anderson was at Col.
Mason's camp when the attack was made on
the peace-commlssion party. He says Lieuts.
Sherwood and Doyle were attracted out from
the camp by a white flag. They went 400 or
were only two Indians, who said they wanted
to talk to t'Little Tyee"-Col. Mason. They
were told they did not want to talk, and for
the Indians to go back to their camp and they
the Indians, four in number, fired upon them,
wounding Lieut.. Sherwood in the arm and
thigh; the latter being a very serious wound,
the bone having been shattered by a bullet.
Capt. Anderson who was on duty at the
signal station ON Hospital Rock, saw plainly
the attack upon Col. Mason's front, and tele-
Commission Immediately. Col. Biddle. who
was at the signal station at Gillem's headquar-
ters when this message was received, at once
placed his field glass upon Gen. Candy, as the
party sat together about one mile distant.
Very soon the whole party scattered. He fol-
lowed the Generate course with his glasswhile
he ran about so yards, threw up his arms, and
fell backward dead. Two of the Indians who
were following him jumped upon him, one be-
lieved to be Capt. Jack, stabbed him in the
neck, and he was completely stripped. DIR.
Thomas WIS also entirely stripped. His purse,
containing about $50, was found under his
body, the Indians having dropped it
Mr.. Meacham was shot in three places, one
ball entering at the inner corner of his right
eye, another onthe side of his head. These
are both believed to have lodged within his
Uranium, a third passing through his right
forearm. He also received q cut in his left
arm, and a scalp wound five inches in length.
He was found about so yards from the spot
where the slaughter began, in a direction oppo-
site to that taken by Gen. Candy. He was
entirely stripped and bewildered in mind.
Meacham says he thinks he shot Schonchin in
the abdomen, and blood was found, which in
dictated that one of the Indians had been
wounded. The soldiers who were ready start
ed on a double-quick Immediately upon the
firing of the shot, met Dyar and Riddle and
his wife before they were half way to camp.
The Indians retired to their retreat about 600
yards in advance of the soldiers, who followed
them half a mile beyond the murder ground,
and thero remained until dark, and were with
drawn, as they were not provided with supplies.

Another Railroad Slaughter.

A dreadful accident occurred to a train on
the Stonington and Providence railroad on the
morning of the 10Th. While running from
S~tonington to Boston, the train fell through
the bridge at the switch. Six cars
were burned, and some fifteen persons killed.
The train left S~tonington about thirty-fve min
miles per hour. AS it approached the bridge,
the fireman and engine-driver became aware of
the existence of the watery gulf before them,
but saw the danger too late to prevent the dis
aster, or even save their own lives by leaping
from the engine. The locomotive jumped the
gap, about 80 feet wide, and landed on the
other side, in a sand-bank, plunged into it
with such force as to wreck her completely.
Some idea of her speed may be ascertained
from the fact that a piece of rail was
broken up and shot through the boiler 80
that it remained like a shaft exposed at both
ends The engineer, William Gould, when
discovered. was between the dr~iving-wheel
and engine, there being but just enough of his
body left to identify him. The fireman,
George Eldridge, was crushed to a Jelly.
scene can better be imagined than described.
AS the overturned stoves and lamps set fire to
the woodwork, cries for assistance rent the air
from the smoking caldron. Frantic husbands
were calling for wives, and wives for hus-
bands, sons and daughters. Some escaped
through the car windows; others were pulled
out of the water below, while many more were
writhing beneath the ruins. One man, with
his body partly out of the window, could extri-
cate himself no further, and was calling wildly,
"oh, save me, 1 am burning to death" His
and means were not needed, and
death put IN end to his sufferings-
When Mr.. Allen met his death, he was stand
on the front platform of a car, and, as the
train struck, his foot was caught in the Crap
pling-iron, and in this condition he was burned
to death. -Ts~-rr =
