HEALTH OF THE HOLY FATHER.

A letter in the LondoR Tablet dated Rome,
Sept. 1st, says:
The health of his Holiness has been made
the subject CT much comment this week by the
Liberal press. and especially by the Popelo 10.
mano, the Liberia, Cupitale, and ItGle. Accord
ing to the statements made repeatedly by
these veracious journals the Pope has had
several severe attacks of malady, and his doc
tor, Ceccarelli, was sent for by telegraph. AS
DR.. Ceccarelli did not leave Rome this summer
it is clear he could not have been telegra pied
for. 1t was then said that all the Pope's ply
siciaps were forbidden to leave Rome, and
were ordered to hold themselves. in readiness
for immediate service. There was not much
truth in these commands inasmuch as it is tho
duty of the Pope's medical advisers to visit
him daily, and of course none of them could at
any time absent himself from his duties with
ont special permission. Malicious statements
were also made in some journals, asserting that
one of the most important officials in the Vati.
can was about to be dismissed, and that his
dismissal was occasOned by his unpopularity.
All these reports have been Guthoritatively
denied by the Toce della Ferita. No changes in
the Vatican officials have been made nor has
any Monsign been dismissed. The person
named being unpopular is one of the most
active and obhgirg of the Pope's higher ser.
wants, and has given general satisfaction 10
the Subordinate officials.

TEXAS ORGANIZING AN ARMY.-A San Anto.
MO dispatch says: An Austin special to the

but several re eglments will be crganiZ sd imme-

tin, Texas, to the effect that several regiments
will be or rganized Immediately for active SER
vice on the Rio Graude, and that Gen. Ord has
gone to Austin to consult with the Governor,
refers entirely to State militia, and does not
imply that these troops are to be raised by the
Federal Gouernm nment, as seems to be under
stood.
The War Department has no authority to
organize new regiments ; but the Governor of
Texas has power to organiZs the State militia
and his conference with Gen. Ord refers en-
tirely to that subject.

the ship at p. M, with twelve feet of
water in the hold and gaining fast.
They were picked up about dark by the
bark Stralsund, from Baltimore for the
Baltic, and put on a pilot boat and
this morning landed here. They saved
nothing.

The Russians Capture a Strong Posi-

Karajal, Oct. "a general attack
was made on Moukhtar Pasha's whole
line this morning. Gen. Melikoff was
in command, under orders of Grand
Duke Michael. The key of Moukhtar's
position, which was defended by only a
single battalion, was attacked on three
sides and captured. The battalion was
annihilated. The Turks tried to re-
capture this point but were repulsed.
Further progress Of the Russians was
insignificant, but hopes are entertained
of cutting off Moukhtar from Kars.
The Russians bivouacked on the con-
quered positions. Fighting is sure to
recommence early tomorrow. About
1,500 Russians were killed and wound
ed. The Turks, misled by their spies,
only expected to be attacked on their
flank.
The Turks abandoned Kalarach on

OVER THE BORDER.
Which is where Sheridan Thinks
y the Nez Perces Are.
Sturgis and Howard Ordered to Follow
to the -Line-Miles' Movement.

Chicago, Oct. 3.-Gen. Sheridan has
received official advices confirming the
statement that Joseph:s band of Nez
Perces crossed the river at Cow creek
on Sept. 23d. Cow creek empties into
the Missouri at a point one hundred
and twenty miles east of Fort Benton.
The twelve soldiers on. duty there, and
who are reported in the dispatches as
having defended themselves against
Joseph's band, are assisting in making
some improvements of the rapids, un-
der the direction of an engineer. Boats
loaded with freight for that upper re-
gion frequently discharge portions of
their cargoes at the mouth of Cow
creek, as it can be hauled thence in
wagons to its destination with less diff
Guilty than it can be transported by
steamer to points higher up. The
freight destroyed by the Nez Perces
probably belonged to private parties,
and not to the government. T 2
Gen. Sheridan thinks Joseph has
probably escaped to the British terri
tory by this time. 1t is now nine days
since the Indians crossed the Missouri.
and the distance from the mouth of
Cow creek to the British line is not
much, if any, over one hundred miles.
An easy trail leads from Cow Island
straight north, between Bears Paw
mountain and Medicine butte, and
little east of old Fort Belknap, now
abandoned. The General believes that
Howard and Sturgis have probably
done the very best they could. He
says it has simply been a race, and, to
use his own words, "When it comes to
a race for life, the fellow who is being
pursued can always go a little the fast
est" He thinks Joseph will remain
on the British side until he is delivered
up by the authorities. He has given
orders that the band must be pursued
to the very line.
Gen. Miles, with ten skeleton COM
panies-one of cavalry, and nine of in
fantry, only couple of hundred men,
all told-left the mouth of Tongue
river on the 18th. He is marching
toward the British line, and intends to
cross, if he has not already crossed, the
Missouri at Carroll, about fifty or
seventy-five miles below Cow creek.
He is not pursuing the Nez Perces, but
is heading up into a region where he
can take care of Sitting Bull if he
should venture over to the American
side.

The Railroad Rioters in Court.


Reading, Oct. 3.-The trial of the
rioters was resumed this morning. The
prosecution called James Low, George
Alexander and James Bowman, former
employees as firemen and engineers of
the Philadelphia & Reading railroad,
who were induced to leave their en-
ployment and become members of the
Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers.
They testified that union meeting
was held on the Saturday evening pre-
vious to the burning of the Lebanon
Valley bridge, at which suggestions
were made that the bridge could be
blown up with keg of powder. Some
thing was also said of general agree
ment, but no definite action was taken.

structing another building across the
middle of the courtyard, with the same
number of stories as the present front,
the wings to have a central corridor
and two rows of rooms ON each story,
all being fire-proof. Under this ar
rangement it will allow of using all the
