cured two vessels that will be Immediately
fitted out as cruisers One is the new steam
er State of California, and the other is a
steamer that has been purchased at San
Francisco. Ship builders are in communi-
cation with the Russians 1t is also stated
that there is probability of two other YES
sells being added to their fleet, but as nego-
tiations were not yet concluded the agents
declined to mention the names of the steam
ers in question.
1t is reported that quite a number of
English naval officers have arrived from
Bermuda and are stopping in this city.
All sorts of rumOrs are atoat relating to
the Russian intentions.
SAN Francisco, May 16.-The Pacific Mail
Company sold, last week, the City of Sid
ney, for consideration of 81, to whom even
the Argus eyes of the British Consulate have
not yet discovered. She is a fast steamer,
capacious and probably the most useful YES
sci on the Pacific for the Russian aggressive
service. She sailed from here ina regular
way for New South Wales, Monday and if
50 destined, can be delivered to Russia on
the waters of the South Pacific any day after
her arrival at Sydney. The mania for sell
ing to Russia develops rapidly. Every
thing floating here can be bought if the
price is large enough Railroad authorities
have no intimation of the Cinlbria's pass
engers coming here. 1t is here believed that
they are likely destined to man the State
of California"
CHARLESTON, s. G., May 16.-Runors dur
ing the past two days that a special agent
had arrived here from the North to effect an
organization of all Irishmen in sympathy
with the Fenian movement, to be held in
readiness to invade Canada in the event of
war between England and Russia. The
keynote Of movement is the old adage that
'England's peril is Ireland's opportunity"
1t is supposed that the agent so secretly
conducted his want that no clue could be
obtained as to the truth of the rumor. After
dllllgent inquiry reporter found that the
rumor was due to the arrival here of a gentle
man from the State Of Tennessee by the
name OF OGallagher, who was seen on sew
eral occasions in close conversation with
leading IriShmen and working men of this
city.
OGallagher having circulated his views
in quiet way among the element in the
community which he proposed to act in
concert with, held meeting, where the OBJ
ject of his visit was set forth, and all persons
present pledged to secrecy Nothing more
than this could be learned concerning the
meeting. O'Gallagher refused to give infor-
nation.
PHILADELPHIA, May 16-A story is afoat
here to the effect that one Irish leader act
ing as a Russian agent mere, is enticing
lrishmen to proceed to Russia as emigrantS,
but really as soldiers or sailors. The state
ment is pronounced as sensational and un-
true by the leaders of the Irish in this city.

INDUCEMENTS TO VETERANS.
New YORK, May 16.-A Philadelphia
special to the Graphic to-day says: For
some time past few well-informed per-
sons have been aware that movement
was on foot in this city to raise several regi-
ments of veteran soldiers, who are to fight
under the Russian flag in case of war with
England. The plan is under the manage
ment of several well known soldiers of the
late war, whose offer it is understood has
been definitely accepted by Count Casmar
Griettenberg who is now in command of
the Russian soldiers on board the Cimbra

HON. CASSIUS nj. CLAY.
His Views on the Situation.

National Associated Press to the Star
New YORK, Nav 16.-Although it is
nearly ten years since the Hon. Cassius NJ.
Clay visited New York he seems to have
aged but little. His beard, close cut, is
white, and his hair very gray but as he
stood in the parlor of RossInore Hotel last
evening receiving friends, his step was firm
and his carriage erect, as they used to be in
old days. when he faced angry and danger
GUS throngs and talked to slaves as no other
man ever did and live.
TO a reporter he said, "Well, Hayes has
given US of the South what we expected
from Tilden, therefore, say to our people
that, having got what they want from
Hayes, they should not now toss him back
into the hands OF Cameron and Conkling
for them to handle; besides, | think that
they agreed to stand by the game of chance,
and in good faith ought to do so. His pol
icy has made the South strong and peace
full. l expect to see the country
governed by Southern men and
influence largely, now that our troubles
have been resumed, because we are more
harmonious than the people of the North.
We have no Jacobinism there. Men follow
an issue more cOmpactly. while at the
North they are divided into factions, par
ties, &c, but l regard all this talk about
North and South as out of place. We are
of one country. l don't know of any sec
tionalism existing, as | am called upon to
defend my own people.

WASHINGTON. A
special to the Star.
THE POTTER RESOLUTION.

THE POTTER REsoLUTIoN.
WASHINGTON, May 16,-It is stated upon
the authority of prominent Democratic
Representative, who attended the Demo-
cratic caucus, held Tuesday night, that it
was not so united harmonious and unani-
nous in its action as has been claimed in
the report of the proceedings. Messrs
Young, House, Reganand others are named
as among the advocates of Mr.. Potters res
olution. This was mistake, as these gen
tlemen were, in fact, opposed to and spoke
against it, unless amended so as to show
that no interference with the President was
intended. Mr.. Young's amendment to Pot
ters resolution was as follows:
"Butit is not intended by this proceeding
to disturb the present Chief Magistrate in the
occupancy Of his office, and not to impair
public confidence in the policy he has inau-
gurated towards the Southern States
This amendment was earnestly advocated
by Messrs. Young House. Chalmers Regan,
Mills, Harris and other Southern Repre-
sentatives, and by Harrison, Ewing, and
other Northern members. 1t was said that
many Of those present actually believed the
amendment was right but were whipped
into the party traces by Speaker Randall
But the end is not yet. Much dissatisfac-
ton still exists and it is asserted, on excel
lent authority, that Congressman Young
and his friends will yet compel the accept
ance of his amendment, or defeat the reso-
luton. These gentlemen do not maintain
that the Presidents title is valid by reason
of any vote which was cast for him, but by
reason of the decision Of the Electoral Com
mission.

COUNT sCHoUvALOFF's VISIT.

COUNT sCHOUvALOFF'S VISIT.
LONDON, May 16-A correspondent in st.
Petersburg telegraphs as follows: Nothing
is known of the result of the interview be-
tween Count Schouvaloff and the Gar, and
the most disquieting rumors are current
Every one interprets it according to his
hopes and fears, and the absence of authen-
tic information fills the public mind with
Wcll-grounded uneasiness. This uneasiness
is felt with peculiar force in the Palace,
where closer knowledge of the actual facts
might be expected, and the anxiety deepens
from hour to houf8 1t is thought that if
Count Schouvaloff had succeeded in making
any impression on the Emperor some indi-
cation of a change would have been visible
before now and the situation may there
fore be looked upon as still very unpromis-
ing.
The Grand Duke Michael returns to the
Caucasus in week, when the Emperor will
install himself at Czarskaiselo.
Count Schouvalof will leave st. Peters
burg for London OH Saturday.

THE CORONER'S OFFICE,
Important Changes in Hts Manage
ment.

A new change in the management of the
Coroner's office will take place at an early
day, bill having been passed by the Legis-
lature this week aboishing the jury, which
hitherto had been impaneled by the Coro-
ner in accordance with the old law. This
will have the effect of keeping loungers and
professional jurors from the office, and will
in addition be the means of saving &c. if not
more, in every inquest held by the Coroner
That official will therefore be obliged to
hear all of the testimony in cases coming
before him, and render his own verdict
This of course will put considerable respon-
sibility on the Coroner's shoulders.
Another change will also be made Hith-
erto the Coroner has been allowed but
janitor, and now he will have authority to
appoint his own clerk at fixed salary.
