PARIS, April lS.-In reference to the
escape of Rochefort and his companions,
the "Soir" says; The escape OF French
convicts had already led to the exchange
Of notes between the cabinets OF YER
sailles and St. James. According to the
information of the government, 1t was

of the prisoners, and having on board a
crew of twenty-five men, quite deter
mined to fight if necessary. Seventeen
convicts were to be carried of, but when
the moment came only five were ready,
the others being engaged on work as
signed to them. The British authorities
declare that the craft fraudulently hoist
ed the British flag, but the French gov
eminent believes it can prove that the
vessel was fitted out and prepared IN
British port; and that the government
should be held responsible.

SAN Francisco, April 20.-The damage
by the fire at Alcatraz yesterday is esti-
mated at from S25 900 to $4,000.
The steamer China arrived at 9 D. N.
to-day, and brought the following sum
mary of news from Yokohama, dated Yo.
kohama, March 9th: The attention Of
the japanese Government is now closely
occupied with the subject of the treaty
revision. Two officers of the foreign de-
partment, especially qualified for this
duty, have been appointed to draw up
the japanese proposals. The Daijokna-
ner of the Privy Council bestows UMPIRE
cedented attention, and Sango Daijin,
the Mlkado's chief minister, is for the
first time engaged in discussing the
details with the foreign officials. No
time, however, has been fixed for pub
lie declaration Of intentions.
A curious incident has transpired in
relation to the payment OF treaty money.
recent payment was made to the rep.
resentatives of England, France and
Holland, but nothing was even offered
to the United States minister, in conse-
quence of his well understood views
but after the amount had been handed
over proposition was made by the
above mentioned representatives, to in.
duce Mr.. Bingham to accept part of
the sum which they alone had demanded
and received from the japanese Govern
ment. 1t is needless to say the proposal
was rejected.
The troops which were dispatched to
the south are gradually returning to the
capital.
The Mikado's uncle has proceeded to
the scene of the recent insurrection to
assist Okeebo in the restoration of order.
The most important of the rebel leaders
had escaped from Saga at the last mo-
ment in a small steamer.
A disastrous fire occurred at Yoko-
hama on the night of the 18th inst.
The most extensive business block in the
settlement known as the Bank Buildings
was destroyed, together with various
neighboring buildings. The estimated
loss is $l50.0OO, mostly covered by in

THE GUIANA MINES.

We have been extended the favor Of
reading the following letter from the
South American mines, which we pub
fish, as it may interest many of our
readers:
CAYENNE. Feb. II, 1874.
Dear Friend-I arrived here on the
4tE inst, and leave to-day for the inte-
rior, in company with Dennis Sweeny
and five others. We are going up the
St. Mary River. where Murphy, Smith
and Ely have been mining for some
time. The reports concerning the coun-
try are very conflicting, and quite num-
Der of our boys are discouraged, and four
of the party are going back on the vessel
that we came on. The weather is very
warm and oppressive. Heavy rains fall
every day and night. We are assured
that white men can do no work in the
mines. There Is n great difference of
opinion among our party with regard to
the country. However, l am still of the
opinion that it is rich, and have made
up my mind to sink or swim on this
coast. Stay where you are until you
hear from me from the mines. A good
many Of the party wish themselves back
in the States. We can get DO reliable
news, and reports are very conflicting
John Elys brother is here sick, but is
getting better. He don't speak very en-
courasingly of the country to me. Still
| am iniotmed that he wrote back that
the couTtry was very rich, which may
not he the case. knew him very well
in Montana, and he seems to be very
much of a gentleman. 1t is true / have
not INTERCEPTED him very closely about
the mines, My regards TO all. ="

ADVICE GRATIS.

The village of Reno in this State, and
a mighty small one it is-this village,
not the State-probably not half the size
of Phoebe. boasts two daily papers. That
of course. is an evidence Of enterprise
(well, we DO not like to twit on facts)
on the part of their proprietors. That is
all very well, and they publish very cred
liable and readable journals, which is
well too. But let us ask them, and all
in the spirit of fraternal love, is it well
to drag private affairs into the struggle
for supremacy between the two papers.
We are moved to make these observa-
tions because we see in one paper some
remarks about the proprietors of the
other not paying their taxes in due sea-
son. Pshaw. What do the public care
about that or any other delinquent tax
payer. There are probably good many
of that class in every county in the State,
but it is no use to make fuss about it.
The only way for rival journalists to Sc
cure the public favor is to exhibit energy
and enterprise in securing news. That
is what the public desire. They do not
want to know anything about the pri-
vate affairs Of the proprietors of the
journals that are seeking their favor.
That is out of place, and of no interest
to the people at large. So if We may b.
permitted to do so, We might respectful
ly suggest to these rivals, that they had
better quit throwing dirt at each other
and try which can publish the best
newspaper The best will surely win.
For example, look at the Virginia Enter
prise, which has overcome all opposi-
ton, simply because it was the best
We expect that we shall not be
thanked for advice, and will catch it
from both of the ombatants, but we
cannot help it. There it is, and il they
do not like it, they need not take it.

SOME lady is TO lecture at the Congre-
gational Church this evening on the
ballot for women" Had she not better
be at home darniug stockings Il Reno
State Journal
We do not know whether she had or
not. One thing is certain, that if wo-
man wants to lecture on the ballot, or
anything else, she has as much right to
do so as a man. Another fact is very
potent, that of the public lecturers of
the day the ladies are most successful
and secure the largest audiences. OF
course there is good deal of trash ven
tilated, and some times good deal more
vanity exhibited, with perhaps but little
instruction afforded. All these postu-
lates may be conceded, but that has
has nothing to DO with the main point.
Why cannot woman be allowed to de-
liver a lecture, or anything else that she
can do, simply because she is woman?
Just because the little institution is n
lady, some sneering muggins jumps up
and advises her to darn stockings. 1t
might be that it would be well to be
done in certain cases, and it is also very
probable that it would be well if the fell
low that gave the advice was mailing
rails instead of spelling paper. All these
possibilities are probabilities; but still
for all that, We say if a woman wants to
give lecture, drive team, run for Con-
gress, plead law case 1--WE will take
good care We are not on the other side) i,
for mercy's sake give her the same
chance as great big, husky of a man.
If she fails, it is her own misfortune; if
she succeeds, it is her own triumph.
But at any rate, give her fair field and
no favor Do not commence by cough.
ing her down and talking about stock
ings." The fellow that does 50 very
likely has his own in bad fix, and
heaven help the poor woman that had to
patch them.

RIGHT.- b. Miller, our obligine
County Clerk, yesterday informed us
that two indictments had been found by
the last Grand Jury against the eminent
old blk J. B. E. Cavalier. We are glad
OF this, and hope that if he pokes that
portly old person of his in this town Of
Pioche, that some of the many persons
he so villainously swindled will be on
hand to testify against him. A little
prison diet might add considerably to the
acuteness of his moral perceptions
Phoebe Record, April II.

fortunate in some OF his business opera

him capable Of committing crimes and

means Cavalier gobbled with so little
compunction, you might not feel quite
