London, May 4.-The Post says:

Interesting to Miners.

Washington, May 4.-Copp's Land
Owner for May contains the following
decision of the Interior Department
in the case of Bellows ct al, wner of
the Champion mine: 1t is said that the
party who entered the land under the
homestead laws, and received a patent
therefor, acquired no title to known
mines therein. The owners of such
mines may make application for a
patent, the same as though no home
stead entry had been allowed covering
their claims. All mines located in the
Black Hills should be re-recorded to
fully insure them in regard to title;
therefore, where such locations were
made prior to the ratification of the
treaty, viz, Feb. 2Sth, 1877, such
claims should be relocated and re-
recorded. In the ease of Null VS.. Rolls
& Ross, it was held that where land
had been returned as agricultural in
character, On a township plat, but the
township is afterwards withdrawn rs
mineral land, the burden of proof is
shifted upon the agricultural claimant
to show the non-mineral character of
the tracts he claims. The donation act
of 1850 expired by limitation December
/, 1875, and settlers under that act will
not be allowed, after the expiration of
the act, to set up a claim to lands fall
ing outside of their original notifca-
ton, and over which they have eXer
cised nj legal control. The heirs or
devisees of n deceasedhomestead claim
ant cannot bc held responsible for the
failure of a public officer to administer
upon an estate, providing the heirs are
without notice of their rights. and the

NIGHT REPORT.
WASHINGTON.


An Apology Demanded from Mexico.
Washington, May 4.-Our Mexican
Minister has informed the State DE.
partment of the release of the American
consul at Acapulco, and Secretary
Eyarts has instructed him to enter a
formal protest, and demand from the
government of Mexico an apology and
full %reparation for the outrage.
Extra Session of Congress Postponed.
Washington, May 4.-The cabinet
was in session nearly three hours to-day,
and it was directed to postpone the
extra session of Congress until the 18th
| of October next. This change of the
original programme was made after
careful consideration of the general
interests of the country, with the al
most unanimous desire of the business
community, as well as of the members
of Congress themselves-as far as
they could be consulted-that there
should be no session of Congress this
summer. Upon mature inquiry into
all the circumstances of the case, it
was asc~ertained that, without any i'm
mediate appropriation of money, the
army could be clothed and supplied
with all its necessaries, and that until
the 15thof October, only one regular pay
day has to be passed. 1t was also con-
sidered that if Congress meets in Octo-
Der it may remain in continual session
and finish the business before next
summer, so as to avoid the inconve-
nience of the hot session next year rs
well as this, and a proclamation calling
an extra session on October 18th is to
issued without delay.
Washington, May A member of
the Cabinet says of the extra session,
any degree caused by apprehension on
the part of the administration as to the
policy.

To All, Particularly Invalids,

spring is n trying season. Indications of sick
ness thould AT once be attended to. Fatal
diseases may he caused by allowing the
bowels to become constipatcd and the system
to remain in n disordered condition, until
abe disorder has time to develop itself. An
ounce of prevention is worth a pound OF cure,
Is an old and truthful saying. Therefore, we
advise all who are troubled with the COM
plants now Observation-Disclosures, indiges-
ton, disordered liver, want of appetite,
nausea, or feverish skin, 10 take, without
delay. Schenck's Mandrake Pills. We know
of no remedy so harmless and decisive in its
action. 1t Mt once strikes at the root of the
disease and produces a healthy tone to the
system. People never need suffer from any
disease arising from n disordered condition
of the liver If they would take this excellent
medicine when they feel the first indications
of the malady. Families leaving home for
the summer months should take three or four
boxes of these pills with them. They have
an almost instantaneous effect. They will
relieve the patient of headache in one or two
hours, and Will rapidly cleanse the liver OF
surrounding bile, and will e~ffectually pre-
vent q bilious attack. They are sold by all
druggists.

Movements of the Russians.

Bucharest, May 1.-The Russian adj
II guard reached Urzitchari, south
of Busco. The road there divides, one
branch leading eastward to Gura Jalom-
lei, nearly opposite the Turkish town of
Hirzova; the other leads south to Kala-
rach, opposite Silistria. At Hirzova
the Danube is compressed into one
channel, the banks of which are not
marshy. The passage here is much
easier than ut any other point be-
tween Silistria and GalatZ. Hirzova
is also much less strongly defended
than Silistria. 1t is probable that n
strong corps of Russians will be con
centrated at Gurajalomici and Kala-
rach, either to force a crossing or to
keep the garrisons at Silistria and
Hirzova occupied while Il crossing is
effected elsewhere.
st. Petersburg, May 4.-The mobili-
zation of the Russian army will not be-
come general. Three divisions of the
st. Petersburg corps have been placed
on a wal footing. The first and second
divisions of infantry of the guard are
being modified. These troops will, for
the present, remain as a reserve in their
garrison quarters.

Hanging of a Chinaman.

San Francisco, May 4.-Chin Nook.
sold was hanged to-day for the murder
of one of his countrymen OH the 10th
of December, 1875. He was convicted
solely on Chinese testimony. On an
appeal taken the Supreme court con
iirmed the judgment of the lower court,
and set the execution for April 18th,
but the Governor granted Il stay OF
proceedings until to-day, to enable him
to review the evidence. The prisoner
to the last maintained his innocence.
He was very reticent, declined to con
verse much, and merely requested that
his body be surrendered to his friends
without mutilation. Rev. A. NJ.
LOOMS attended him during his i'm.
prisonment and on the gallows, but
failed to make any apparent impression

Effects Of the Postponement.

Washington, May 4.-The Depart
ment of Justice will suffer much in
convenience by the postponement of
the extra session, as there will lie a
deficiency of half a million of dollars,
by the first of July, to be provided for
by Congress.
There is no money to pay the officers
of the navy for the months of April,
May and June. The amount required
is about eight hundred thousand dol
lars, for which they will have to wait
until the extra session.
The army officers will also be con
siderably embarrassed, as they cannot
receive their pay after the list of July,
until the army appropriation bills have
been passed. r..

Miller, and he IA suspended from the

ties.


ties.
Versailles, May An the Chamber
of Deputies the debate,.on NJ. LeBland's
Interpolation was ~re-opened by Gam
BETA, who said, in presence of the in
trigues which divided the country and
alarmed Europe, the Republican party
ty ought to loudly proclaim its princi-
pies and endeavor to save the state, in
which a breach had been made by par
tisan interests and Catholic agitatorS.
He charged that the members of former
revolutionary cabinets, who have taken
refuge in the Senate, We're directing
the present movement. After inveigh-
ing against the encroachments of the
clergy, he declared it was time all
churches should be relegated to their
subordinate rank in the state. The
clericalists sought to induce France to
break out with an Italian revolution.
Clericalism was an enemy. THE last
statement was greeted with prolonged
applause by the Left.
Minister Simon Indignantly repudi-
| ated that assertion. His speech yes
terday was dictated by the president.
He repeated in his declaration the
governments determination to. make
the law respected. { They would do so
with all the more energy, as advantage
might be taken if impunity was en-
joyed by certain persons-probably
meaning the bishops-to prejudice good
| relations with Italy.
NJ. Nun, a recently elected Clerical
list deputy, denied that the Catholics
desired war with Italy.
The Chamber, by vote, ayes 361,
nays 121, adopted the resolutions pre-
scented by the Left and accepted by the
government party, declaring that the
Chamber considers the recurrence of
Ultramontane manifestations rs dam
gerous to peace at home and abroad,
and calls upon the government to use
all lawful means at its disposal in pre-
venting it.
