BERSE, Oct 9.-The postal Convention
vas signed to-day by all the delegates to
he International Congress, except from
France. This evening banquet was
,iven them.
Nrw ORLEANS Oct. 10.-To-morrow's

authorized offer on the part of the fu-
to accept the propositions made
by Governor kellogg in his address, viz;
to test the question Of the Louisiana
State government by canvas OF the nc-

duced and authenticated any time.
NASHVILLE, Tenn, Oct. l0.-The Ban
ner has a long account Of q desperate
affray between the colored preacher, Joe |
Rayages, and DR.. Shy, at the house OF
the latter, near franklin, Tenn. 1t
seems an ATTEMPT had been made last
mouth to burn Shy's residence, and
reward had been offered by Governor
Brown for the arrest Of the incendiary.
A negro detective disguised as WORK
man, discovered he had formed plan 10
kill DR.. Shy and wife, and burn the
house. He then notified the intended
victims, and when Ravages appeared, Dr.
Sby met him. A terrible encounter fol-
lowed, resulting in the death OF the
negro. Shy was slightly wounded.
PATTERSON, N. j., Oct. l0.-Secretary
| Robson addressed an immense audience
at mass meeting last night and in the
course of his speech said neither the i'd
miuistration or its chief would ever be
found outside the Republican party, nor
acting contrary to the established tradi'
lions of the country. The latter remark
was understood to refer to the third
term, and was vocieferously applauded.
After the meeting, Secretary Robson
said President Grant had no idea OF a
third term, but avoided giving an official
expression to his opinion on the matter
lest he should seem to attach to it too
much Importance.
CHICAGO, Oct. 10.-The Inter. Ocean s
special from Dennison, Texas, says that
Deputy United States Marshal Thomas
Wright arrived from st. Joe, Montague
county, the scene of the recent Ku kluk
outrages, at two o'clock this afternoon,
with fifteen members of the Khan. He
was assisted in capturing them by Lieut.
Myer, with detachment Of cavalry from
Fort Richardson. Intense excitement
prevailed in Dennison on the arrival of
the prisoners, and but little sympathy is
felt for them at this point. An examina.
ton of the cases begin tomorrow before
Thomas E. Maurice, United States Com
missioner. The Khan includes some
wealthy men, and the fight in the courts
will be q desperate one. They are heavi-
ly guarded, and it is thought no attempt
will be made to release them tonight.
A Washington special says there is a
we'll organized effort on foot to renew the
ranking privilege at the coming ses-
sion of Congress. 1t is held that, mas
much as many of the the present Con-
gress will not hold seats in the next, by
log-rolling with the appropriation bill
the votes of nearly all the retiring mem.
bers can be secured for its renewal.
Should this action prove unpopular as is
believed, the odium will be thrown upon
the members whose terms have expired
Probably the strongest point which viii
be made in favor of the renewal, is the
increased expense of the Postoffice De.
partment since the abolition of the
r.:~:i.e-, A. r--.L coming ~~--n, -ano~
Of the Postmaster General will show tina
the expenses of the past fiscal year vii
exceed those of the previous one ovel
four million of dollars.
The Times Washington dispatch say
an officer, holding office under the pat
J ronage of Hayes, a member Of Congress
from Alabama, who has recent advice
from the State, expresses his views quit
! openly in reference to the condition o
affairs there. Tonight, in conversation
he said that two weeks ago he was of tn
opinion that the Democrats would carr,
the State, but now, since the militar.
was distributed in several of the coun
ties, he believes that the Radicals viii
carry the State by a majority of from
fifteen to twenty thousand, and six on
OF the eight congressman. He adds tina
it is just like war in Alabama, and tina
the people were running from the troop
in all directions.
WE have been shown specimens of Goa
groupings as thoroughly indicative o
the genuine article as any we have sect
any where in the State. A district ha
been formed to be known as the RisinI
Sun, 26 miles from Battle Mountain. OF
Rock Creek. and about ten miles from
Soshone Point, for the purpose Of devel
