BROWNSVILLE, June 4.-The Chief of
Police has found Joseph De LaveO, alias
James Shore, alias American Joe, alias Ell
Chino, who is supposed to have been the
leader of the Pensacal murderers. De
Layeo was sergeant in ali Iowa regiment
during the war, but later belonged to the
10th Infantry, from which he deserted.
Chief of Police Carson found him in Ma
tamoras, and he is held for recognition
with the other confessed murderers. Place

from Kansas.
Hamilton.
Lieutenant Firth and special police Off
Ger Enkin, went from here on the Sth of
May, with an escort of Mexican cavalry, 10
overtake and arrest Hamilton, the jersey
City defaulter. They went to San Luis
POtOsi, following Hamilton's trail, which
they struck at San Fernando. At San Luis
they were only twelve hours behind him, but
were informed by the District Judge that
if they attempted to arrest bin without
the approval or the warrant by the Gov
ernor Of the State, they would be arrested
themselves. This warrant, he stated, must
explain Hamilton's crime, and Gov. Ca
males, of Tamaulapas, should make requi-
sition on the other Governors.
The Judge afterwards agreed that if the
officers would pay certain amounts he
would have Hamilton arrested. They could
not comply and therefore returned. 1t is
said that Hamilton was protected for some
days by Gen. COrtina, who, though not now
in Office. has almost unbounded influence

holding of sessions during the coming re-
cess Of the Finance and Ways and Means

duties whenever practicable, and by such
classification of merchandise as might be
found desirable; and instructing the com,
mittee of the Chamber on Foreign Com
merce and Revenue Laws to consult with
the Boards of Trade OF other cities to such
changes in the revenue laws and for devils
ing complete revised tariff fer submission

NEW YORK, June 4.-A London letter
says the Duchess of Edinburg's position
at court has been settled. She is to be
called Her Royal Imperial or Imperial
Royal Highness, and is to rank next to the
Princess of Wales except when the Royal
Crown Princess of Prussia happens to visit
England. The rule has heretofore been
that the daughters Of the sovereign took
precedence over the wives Of sons
except in the case of the Princess
Of Wales The Duchess Of EdinbWg
however, is not only royal by marriage but
imperial by birth, and it is on this ground
chat higher place has been assigned her.
In Russia she was after her mother, who is
an invalid and lives in retirement, the first
lady in the land, and raised high above all
nobility. Here, she is only one among
many PrinceSses, and has apparently few
striking qualities of her own TO win COM
manding position. The Duchess is defici-
ent in dignity and style, and her sex are
cruel enough.to say she does not know how
to dress. However, in other ways she may
strike out line for herself.

John Bright on Temperance Legisia-
fiOn.
At a recent meeting of the friends of
temperance in London, John Bright made
a speech, in which he said their friends
asked for things to be done by Parliament
which they knew, and all know, at the
present time, with the present state of pub
lie opinion, were impossible to be done.
If Parliament were to pass such laws as
those proposed by many friends of temper
ance legislation, the very next week they
would have to repeal them, or the whole
city of London would be in riot, revolt and
insurrection. Against public opinion Par
Lament could have no more power than
the meanest citizen. He believed it could
never be touched, unless thoughtful, Sc
rious men, beginning with ministers Of the
Gospel, and all these who attended places
of worship for other reasons than fashion,
should work. The question of intemper-
ance was one of the great evils they have to
overcome. He had come 10 the opinion that
unless the religious portion of Ibis country
would take up this question, there was no
hope for it whatever at present. According
TO custom, wines must be used on our
tables to ornament them and form the sta
pie of conversation.

4 Gallant Fight with the Indians.

} letter from Camp supply, November
-, 20 The New York Herald, gives the -ol'
Lowing interesting particulars:
Ihe most gallant, trying and desperate
bnlian fight of the campaign occurred yes
s,srday. about thirty miles from this place,
an the AranOso or Mcclellan creek, con-
.,ucted by Captain II j. Farnsworth. com
,naudlng q portion Of Company ii, Elghth
United States Cavalry, numbering only
swentyeight men. The engagement COM
inenced 80 T. NJ, with 100 Cheyennes or
Arapahoes and kiowas. exceedingly well
s4ounteL and in full fighting trim, and hav-
Tag the advantage OF higher ground, equal
Arms-breech loading-and d more album
4 ant supply of ammunition than Farms
~orth's plucky fellows. The latter fought
IKE tigers, disputing every inch OF ground
Snt:l dark, losing one man kllled ana 1our
wounded, ten horses killed and two wound
cd, and killing fifteen Indians, large num-
Ser of ponies and wounding fifty or more OF
Che savages.
The exhaustion of his ammunition and
.he desire to care for his wounded men then
compelled Captain FarnswOrth to retreat
reluctantly, under cover OF night, 10 thi5
point, whence he had been sent out by Major
William Redmond Price, OF the Eighth
United States Cavalry, commanding the
Wipcate battalion, to discover the where
~
to be in this vicinity, as Cheyenne sPy
had been captured by Major Price In
diyidually, and others had been seen near
this point.
About dark our soldiers slowly emerged
out of the hollow, where they had been
hemmed in, and, making "a nee k-or- nothing
charge, succeeded in reaching the plains.
All the wounds were received at this time;
The Indians did not dare to pursue, and
they showed evident signs OF severe punish
ment and of having enough OF 1t for the
time CAPTAIN FarnswOrth immediately
struck out for this place where we are rest
ing, after having marched fOrty-tive miles
between dark ard sunrise through ter
ribly cold night, causing the wounded men
to suffer greatly. The horses had not eaten
anything since morning, and had performed
a full days march of twenty three miles
before the action. The casualties were all
of company III, Eighth United States Cav
h.ry.
Immediately upon receipt of tie news
siaior Price, who had fought these same
adams on September II near here. started
at AZ once for the late scene of action,
With Captain G. A. Heartwell and Lieuten-
mt Morris. and their companies, and l..

r,anies of the Tenth United States Cavalry
cooperating at the request OF Major Price,
and by directions of General j. W. David
son.
While the fight made by Captain Farms
worth and his brave men was throughout
full of individual acts of bravery, dash and
,.aring, Private Daniel Haggerty, of st.
Louis, who killed the first Indian, and First
sergeant Owen Conway deserve mention.
Women and children brought up fresh
ponies for the Indians TO replace those
killed or disabled. and their arms were
sometimes of longer range than those Of
