SPAIN.

LONDON, Aug. 3.-A dispatch from
Madrid says the Alfonsist troops continue
successful. Several important victories
were gained last week. The Carlists are
evidently approaching dissolution. Liza
raga, with 5000 Carlists, is in the citadel
at SEQ de Urgel. Spanish funds have risen
owing to the improved prospect.
The projected constitution declares the
State religion to be Roman Catholic. The
Government is obliged itself to maintain
its worship and its ministers, but
nobody shall be mOlested on
Spanish territory for religious opinions, or
in the exercise of their respective worships,
so long as the respect due TO Christian mo-
rality is paid. Nevertheless. other public
ceremonies or demonstrations than those Of
the State religion are prohibited. CanOVas
del CASTILLO, President Of the COnstitu-
tiOnal Committee, declares the meaning Of
this to be that PrOtestants may have
churches with open doors and celebrate
worship inside, bat there must be 10 mani
festatiOn in the streets.
1t is believed the COrtes viii be sum-
mOned to meet soon, when the proposed
Constitution will be submitted, eOnse-
quently political agitation is recon-
mencing.
Madrid, Aug. 3.-An official despatch
announces that Gen. Weyler has routed the
Carlists under Saballs in Catalonia. The
Carlist Gen. DOrregary is at Berga.

BLACK HILLS.
Gold Discoveries verified.


CHICAGO, Aug. 3.-An IRteT-OcedR spe-
eial from the Black Hills says the gold dis
coveries reported by Prof. Jenney and
miners are daily confirmed by recent pros
pecting. Prof. Jeuney believes that mines
in Jenney's gulch will average three to four
cents a pan, which is considered
cautious figure, while miners along
Spring Creek place their lowest
rate above that figure, and the
maximum is without limit. An immense
ledge has also been discovered seven to
eight miles in extent north. 1t promises
to be of great value. The command left
Camp Harvey for Rapid Greek, thirty-fve
miles northwest from Clusters Gulch,
where the next permanent camp will be
located.
Gen. Crook and escort has arrived at
Camp Crook, as commander, and carried
out the orders Of President Grant and
Gems. Sherman and Sheridan. Gen. Crook
has issued a special order requiring all
miners and all unauthorized persons to
leave the Black Hills before Aug. 2S. Two
companies of cavalry and one Of infantry
are now en- route to carry into effect this
order. The miners in different parts Of the
hills have held meetings and decided to
abandon their claims until they can law
fully resume work. It is believed no
trouble will ensue.

The Ripleu NelCS says "There is talk in
Lauderdale of raising a company Of infant
ry to 90 to the Centennial and join in the
grand parade on the 4th of July, 1876"
Raise the ''infantry" by all means, if you
have to carry them Gin arms" to the show.
The LyRchbHg Sentinel says: From all
parts Of the country comes the same re-
pOTt as to the corn prospects. Everybody
says there will be an unprecedented yield.
Hogs are very scarce; but a large portion of
the surplus corn will be made into whisky.
The Union City ReUejlIe hears consider
able complaint amongst the far. ers about
wheat that was damaged by the late rains.
1t seems that a great deal Of wheat was
not properly shocked, that is to say, the
shocks were not capped as they should
have been in order 20 keep out the water,
and the continual rains have caused wheat
to sprOut.
A correspondent Of the MarlUiIle Re-
publican, writing from Louisville, Tenn,
remarks: Much is being said in tie papers
about the immense amount Of corn that is
to be raised in East Tennessee this year.
We predict that unless there IS a decided
change for the better, very soon, there will
be less corn to sell in East Tennessee than
there has been for three years past.

GREAT BRITAIN.

LONDON, Aug. S.-A large number OF
prominent Odd Fellows from the United
States were present at the dedication of the
new Odd Fellows Hall yesterday after
noon. -Four hundred, from Cleveland, re-
ceived an enthusiastic welcome. A ball
and supper wound up the celebration.
The Mark Lane Express in its weekly
review Of the corn trade, says the cereal
crop just reaching maturity, has been saved
by tne weather. We may yet have
a moderate harvest in good
order. The upward movement has
stopped and prices have relapsed, part
ly in consequence of foreign arrivals, which
are unusually free; but current rates
scarcely reach the average, and are still be-
low those Of last year. The harvest in
France is progressing rapidly, but general
reports indicate less than a fair average
yield, although IN Paris and Marseilles
prices have fallen two shillings. Belgian
and German markets show a similar
change. Official accounts of crops i'm
Austria and Hungary show there is more
likelihood of deficiency than a surplus.

MINNEAPOLIS, MINI, Aug. 3.-The
annual session of the National
Educational Association convened at the
Academy of Music in this city to-day.
Nearly five hundred persons were present
at the opening of the exercises, and many
more are expected before the close Of the
convention. The Board Of Directors had
business meeting al 9 A. NJ, the AssOcia-
ton proper not cOnYening until 10 A. NJ.
At that hour Rev. r. T. Sample opened the
convention with a prayer, after which
Mayor Merriman, in q brief speech, eX-
tended to the guests the hospitality of the
city. His eXcellency Gov. Davis was then
introduced, and in a most eloquent address
spoke of the educational facilities of the
State and the work of the convention as
sembled. He closed by extending the hos
pitality of the State 10 those present. Presi-
dent Harris then made response and open
ing address on the part of the association.

Cincinnati Commercial.
TIE Ohio river in front Of Cincinnati
last night was a dismal and majestic
spectacle. The depth of the tawny and
mOnstrOus torrent was fOrty-six feet. The
water . ran in wild whirls, the pre-
vailing yellow spotted with dark
patches, showing that the wash
ings from the hills and bottom lands were
not thoroughly cOmmingled, and the cur
rent was marked by masses Of drift-WOOd.
The stream was rising rapidly, and the tel
egrams tell Of tremendous OverfOWs from
the most important tributaries above, so
that we may expect such q river as has not
been seen for many a year. The grounds
having been throughout the Ohio valley
June and July, the great rain
tirely contributed to the already over
flowing streams. This is a combination of
circumstances that must prove extremely
disastrous. Not only the earth, but the air
Seems to be fun Of water. There was q
mist over the river yesterday in which the
water could be felt, and the fine, persistent,
penetrating rain seemed to come from all
directions, and TO be part of the air. In
diana is swept by freshets even more terri
bly, than Ohio. Our dispatch from Terre
Haute gives an appalling picture. The
Wabash, a river Of which there are terri
BILE records and traditions, has risen
above all high water marks since
that Of 1928, or forty-seven years ago
White river is almost equally formidable.
Coming within our own State again, we
find the Miamis, the SCiOtO and the Hook
ing within few inches Of the highest win
ter and spring floods, and doing incalcula-
bic mischief. They have cleared the wheat
fields of shocks, and are raging over the
gTandest cOnfelds in the world, utterly
sweeping from the face Of the earth the har-
vests and growing grain, the fences, and
sometimes the stock Of the farmers, leaving
them nothing but their naked houses and
desolated fields.
The calamity is Of the grayest character.
Nothing like this has heretofore happened
in this part of the world. We have had
floods, but not at the season when the fruits
Of the soil Of the faireSt portions Of the
State were carried away. The splendid
growing crops along the Lower Mississippi,
which have made the heart Of the husband
man glad through that region with Wis
ions, after years of impOverishment,
of a year of plenty, will presently be de-
strOyed, for the Mississippi will break all
bounds when this OutpOur is added TO the
flood that for the last ten days has filled the
banks, so that every inch Of fall or rise of
the upper rivers reported has caused hope
or dismay in the bOsOms of those whose all
is depending. The feeling in the city yes
terday was gloomy. Every hour seemed
to add to the magnitude of the disaster that
has befallen us-a disaster without measure
and beyond remedy.

The Upper Cumberland Flooded with
Fraudulent InfIatIOn-TwO Active
stock Traders the DeIinquents-An
Exciting Triai-Subsequent Escape
OF the InfIafiOnists.
Correspondence Of the Union and American.
COOKEvILLE, July 3O.-On the 2Oth
inst, John Sliger and William GOss, Of
White county, were arrested by 5. F. Coat
ney, Deputy United States Marshal on
charge of passing counterfeit money in
White, Putnam and adjoining counties.
The fact that the county had been flooded
with spurious money, and the prisoners
being men Of respectable families, and
noted stock traders created unusual excite
ment, and the people flOCked in from far
and Lear TO witness the result Of the trial.
There were upwards of forty witnesses in
attendance for the prosecution, and some
were examined for the defence. So much
interest was manifested on either side that
some Of the parties came TO blows, and it
even grew into a shooting aiiray, but with
no serious result.
The prisoners were permitted TO sever in
their trial. GOss was tried first, the inveis
tigatiOn lasting eigut days, showing CON
clusively that the parties have been passing
counter cit money Of the Treasury Of the
United States of the denominations Of bills
of $50, and bills known as black backs or
national bank money on the First National
Bank Of Canton, and Traders Bank Of
Chicago, and Paxton, H., in large amounts,
and to various persons in different counties.
The extent Of their cOunterfeiting, it is be-
lieved, could not bO fully developed during
their tsial for want Of other witnesses from
other portions Of the country not accessi-
bic. The prosecution was conducted with
zeal, perseverance and energy, the court
sitting from morning till night for eight
days, giving the defendants a chance to
make the best and ablest defence, which
they did.
GOss was bound over to the Federal
court to answer the charge, whereupOn
Sliger's counsel, seeing there was no chance
for his acquittal under the proof, which
seemed so conclusive, waived an examina-
ion, and he was bound also.
The prosecution was conducted upon the
the part of the United States by Capt. II.
II. billiard, Henry SnOdgrass and Walton
Smith, attorneys; and for the defense, G.
Marchbanks, II. Denton and 3. II. Webb,
and we can say for them that their skill,
energy and ability throughout the whole
trial, which was lab0riOus under the cir
cumstanees, are seldom surpassed.
The prisoners failed to give The required
bond and were delivered to Marshal Coat
ney, who Immediately handcufed them
and started to Nashville by way Of Sparta.
We learn that about twenty miles from
here they stopped at a house TO get water,
when the prisoners made a break for liberty.
Several shots were fred at them, but (it be-
ing very dark effected nothing, They are
now running at large. It is believed that the
United States authorities will take this
important matter into hand and ferret it
out, as it is certainly a case Of more magni-
tude than any Of the kind We have known
in the State. A SPECTATOR.

WASHINGTON, Aug. IA gentleman
has lust returned to this city [COl. Craw-
ford, of Wattison & CraH-fcrd,l who had a
conversation with Andrew johnson at his
home in Tennessee a day or two before his
death. Mr.. johnson then said: 81 am
winding up my personal afIairs-I wish to

feeling in my head, which makes me fear
apOpleXy, and a man liable to that never
knows how suddenly he may be cut on:
He was TO have been in Washington this

Of the Receiver of the First National Bank.
He had also nearly perfected arrangements
TO deliver a speech in Baltimore on the
political situation with especial reference
