more efficient than ordinary revenue cut,

effective additions to the armament OF
the vessel. He thinks u gunboat should
be sent and kept there, at least for a
time, until the miners and Indians be.
come accustomed to the change. 1t not
being possible to send gunbOat, then
the best revenue vessel should be sent, as
nearly equivalent to gunboat Gs'possi'

is apprehended that several Of the female
domestics Of the house are buried beneath

Clark, wife and child were among the

recovery.
Kate CIaxton lost everything she pos.

fourth story to the roof Of a one-story
saloon adjoining the house, and sustained
severe conclusion OF the brain and
spinal chord. She also has u badly cut
face and head, two wounds in the groin
fractured rib and several minor hurts
From sixty to one hundred men have
been put to work on the ruins by order
Of Mayor Overstolz, and this force will
be increased from fifty to one hundred
and fifty or two hundred. The search i.

Several OF the interior walls which

LONDON, April ia fire at Stamboul
on Tuesday night destroyed between 800
aud 500 houses. 1t originated in the
Greek quarter.
THE "TIMEs" MAN AND THE sTILErro,
A letter from Rome says that Mr..
Walter, proprietor Of the London Times,
while passing through Puerto del Popolo
on the Ath inst, was attacked by three
men armed with stilettOs and robbed,
but not hurt. The outrage has created
quite sensation. One hundred persons
have been arrested on suspicion.
THE INSTRUMENT OF PEACE BRINGS WAR.
The Times, in leader, says: "How
has the prospect suddenly been over.
shadowed by fear Of speedy war? A
change has come through the act Of Rus
sia, and by means Of the very document
which was signed for the purpose Of
peace. Hardly had the document been
signed when Russia showed disposition
to take from il the materials OF an ulti.
matum, and the Porte was informed that
it would be expected 10 decide by to-
morrow whether it would or would not
accept the protocol and send an envoy to
St. Petersburg. II, as our Austrian
correspondent says, the Italian and
French Charge d'Ailairs also intimated
that a definite reply should be given by
the 18th inst, Russia may be able to
make an unexpected defense other haste,
but our own government, at least, did
not intend the protocol to have the char.
acter Of an ultimatum. Russia cannot
be surprised indeed, il the recent me-
gotiations should expose her to severe
charges, she must expect it TO be said
that she wished to pass time until the
roads toward Turkey should be fit for the
passage OF her artillery, and that she
drew up the protocol not to secure peace,
but TO obtain from the United Powers
such condemnation Of Turkey as would
make declaration Of war inevitable.
We bring no such charges against Russia,
but the Powers will have reason to com.
plain il, now that they have put their
seals to the protocol, Russia should re.
fuse to smooth the way towards peace.
She will be expected at least to postpone
any decisive action till the Powers shall
have again appealed to the Porte, and she
may be invited to consider whether de.
mobilization might not be brought about
in some manner less hurtiul to Turkish
pride than the stringent terms OF Schouv.
