President Grant at New Bedford.

NEW BEDFORD, Aug. 31-President Grant
left Martha's Vineyard this morning for New
Bedford at about half past eight o'clock. A
committee of reception and OF escort, repre-,
senting a camp meeting association, waited
upon Gen. Grant at the cottage of Bishop
Haven, and he was addressed in their behalf
by Rev. DIR. Talbot, President of the assocla-
ton, as follows: We desire to express our graf
ificaton at your visit, Mr.. President, and we
hope you have enjoyed the hospitallties which
the Vineyard has been able to offer you. 1t is
our prayer that the blessing of God may attend
you and bring you safely to your home.
In reply, the President said: l am very much
obliged, gentlemen, for the invitation which
| you extended to me and for thu kindness which
| you have shown me. have enjoyed the trip
| with unusual interest, as much of the excur-
| sion has carried me over territory with which
| was not previously acquainted. My reception
| on the camp meeting ground and my enter
| tainment, and the exercises here have been
| very gratifying to me. indeed l am sorry that
| SO much trouble has been taken for my recep-
| ton, bnt it was the fault of the committee and
not any fault of mine, as all the entertainment
| has been forced upon me, and have been met
| at every town of my visit with some kindness,
| for which am deeply grateful.
President Grant was introduced to represen-
| tatives of the committee of reception of New
| Bedford, who arrived this morning on the
steamer Monohansett, and received by them
| Rev. DR.. Tiffany and wife, Bishop Haven and
| wife and Rev. DIR. Talbot and wife were invit
to visit the Presidential party, and with them
visit New Bedford. The party proceeded il
street cars to Monohansett, the boat being
chartered by the city of New Bedford especially
for the trip The usual crowd awaited the ar
rival of the President at the camp meeting
landing, and as he appeared warmly greeted
him with cheers. At $50 the boat started
The delightful weather rendered the trip from
Oak Bluffs to New Bedford enjoyable in tn
extreme, and the absence of large crowd aug
mented the comfort on boa1d the boat.

Tbe Cou.batta lTroubIe,

SHREVEPORT, La, Aug. 31.-The air is full
of rumorS concerning the Coushatta trouble,
but none of them can be traced to reliable
source. Gentlemen who left Coushatta yester-
day morning report all quiet and the citizens
discussing the propriety of removing the pris-
oners to Shreveport 1t was reported to-day
that the prisoners were intercepted near Mans.
field by party of Texans and han ged, but the
driver of the Mansfield stage, which has just
arrived, pronounces the report entirely un
founded. The Times received the following
dispatch from Winder: A gentleman just from
Red River says company of men who started
for Shreveport with the Coushatta prisoners
were overtaken twenty three miles below
ShreveportOn Sunday evening, about o'clock
by forty or fifty armed men supposed to be
Texans from beyond the Sabine, who took the
prisoners out of the hands of the guard and
killed Homer Twitchell, Bob Dewes and Frank
Edgerton on the spot. The other three, Howell,
Holland and Lewis escaped, but were recap
tured and are supposed to have shared the
same fate. The prisoners requested to be taken
to Shreveport, and selected the men TO take
charge of the company that was to guard them.
Every precaution was taken that was believed
necessary to insure their safety. The ciGizens
were satisfied with the assurances that they
would leave the state and did not desire to take
barsh measures. The Texans swore that they
did not intend to have such id scoundrels
hunting homes in their state. The gentleman
from whom we gather the information saws he
saw the dead bodies of the three first named
parties.
This dispatch is rot generally credited here
as various parties have arrived to-day from
Mansfield. Keochi and Kingston who must
have passed near the scenes of the reported
murders this morning, and they bring no in
formation on the subject, and strong hopes are
entertained that this report like the earlier
ones may prove untrue.
The Prisoners Murdered.
SHREVEPORT, Aug. 31-11 P. M.-The reyorts

boundary line between Bosser and Red River

THE BLACK CRooK.-City Hall was we'll
filled last night TO witness the 'Black Crook"
An extended review of that spectacular ex-
travaganza does not seem called for, for last
evenings performance was much like that in
Music Hall two seasons ago. The small stage,
the difficulty in shutting off gas, the trouble
with the colored lights, and several bitches in
the shifting of scenery marred the smoothness
of the play. These defects will be removed to-
night it is hoped. Miss Care proved herself,
as ever, an admirable danseuse. Miss Fannie
Burt was charming as ever in Stalacta, and
Mrs. Louie made a very acceptable Dame Bar
bara The scenery was really fine. Miss lone
Lang was rapturously greeted by her Portland
admirers, and let out that beautiful and won
| derful voice to its full extent. Another full
| house is looked for this evening.
