FIRE.-The alarm of fire about hslfp past nine

the arrest and spiriting away from that city in
irons of Captain Joab Lawrence and Mr.. John
N. Whitney, late president and vice president

being Utah quartz "sharps" and parties to
conspiracy to swindle Eber B. Ward, million
aire of Detroit, and Mr.. N. Packard in mining
stocks. The charge is serious one, but the
act of kidnapping these gentlemen, who arc

A WESTERN paper announces that Mr..
Schurz will unite with the Democratic Sena-
tors in criticising unspsringiy the conduct of the
Administration in the Virginius affair. His
principal ground of objection, We are told, is
that the President yielded to "populsr clamor."
The best thing Mr.. Schurz can do in this mat
ter is to let it alone. His previous attacks
upon the Administration have been anything
but successful, and professional foreigners like
himself had better not NEEDLE with things
which they cannot in the very nature OF things
very clearly understand or appreciate.
