To Refugees!


TTHAVING come to cur knowledge that
some parties who had fed the city at the out
break of the epidemic have returned. con-
tractod the fever and died. it is my duty, by
resolution Of the Howard Association, to warn
all Refugees that, owing to the fact that We
have all we can do to nurse and care for those
who are here, If they come back to the city
before the epidemic has been officially declared
over. they will do SO at their own risk and
with almost the certainty of having to provide
for themselves in case of sickness. Our pres
ent obligations are as many and as weighty as
we can carry, and we cannot. without break
ing down, assume any more. REFUGEES
MUST NOT RETURN. The fate of those
who have should be a warning to all.

RAILROAD MATTERS.
The Suits Against the Kansas Pacific
Railroad Company.


NAsHlNGToN. \, ril II. In relation to the
foreclosure OF suits against the Kansas Pacific
Railroad Company, General Deven> says the only
suit he knows about officially IS that Of Adolphus
Wen and other representing third mortgages.
The l nlted states l. made defendant TO this suit
and other suits pending to winch the United
States is not made party.
The Indebtedness of the Kansas Pacific Rail
road Company to the United States amounts to
nearly ten million dollars, secured bv second
mortgage upon all ITS property and franchise
The thIrd mortgage was gwen June 20lh, 1869
Tor 50 900 gold at seven per cent. interest.
The bill before congress asks for tie sale OF the
whole road aud distribution OF the proceeds &C
coriing to the rights OF the several mortgages and
without offering to discharge the piior lien of the
nited States or to have sale made subject to that
incumblance.
This fact end expensive management seemed to
the attorney general to require the intervention of
the United States, and he directed appearances to
be entered subject TO the decision of the court as
TO his right to represent the United States in that
case without having been authorized to do so,
without legislation.
Devens recommends the attorney general be
empowered by congress to intervene in all future
SUITS sgaiust the Pacific Railroads and any other
case lsting thereto where the interests of gov
elnme nj might be affected.

The Turks still occupy Batoum.
1t Is untrue that the Russians have asked per-
mission to occupy Buyukdera or are moving near
Constantinople.
Both from Vienna and St. Petersburg come re-
ports of great uneasness and dissatisfaction in the
latter city about the Russians position. The i'll
humor is directed against the Russian diploma
fists for permitting military successes and military
views TO turn their heads, but Eng and and Aus
trls are also much blamed, the former for wishing

which do not interfere with British interests and
Austria for exsggelating and exceeding the linn

as cond tons of her neutrality.
Ihs growing consciousness that a mistake has
been made and must be repaired is regarded as
