THE INDIANS.

The Hostiles Driven Out Of New Mexico.
Fort GRANT. Nov. 7.-Dspatches from
Fort Bayard, New Mexico, announce the re-
turn there of Arizona troops and scouts. They
had fight by moonlight with Victoria band
of Apaches in Mexico, 60 miles below the line.
'One hundred and eighty warriors were en-
gagged in the fight, were defeated and driven
from the field. One soldier and scout killed.
The hostile Indians have all been driven

territory against hostiles now in Mexico. The

Mexican authorities to arrest the hostiles.
Military Movements Against the Indians.
NEW YORK, Nov. IA Denver dispatch
says a company of cavalry left Fort Bayard on
Wednesday for Camp Grant, Arizona, and
will scour the country for Indians on the
route.
Gen. Morrow's command is being rapidly
reftted at Fort Bayard with mountain howit-
zers and pack mules. He will shortly resume
pursuit of Victoria and his band. Detach-
ments have been placed at several ranches in
the country out of which Morrow has driven
the Indians, Capt. Dodge and his gallant
company are ordered to join Morrow.

SATURDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER s.

Globe said it made the statement on the au-
thority of the editor of the Democrat" But
the editor writes to the Boston Herald thar a. ne
never told the Globe any such thing. Inc
Globe then printed a letter about the Maine
election and signed j. G. Blaine's name 10 II.
Mr. Blaine denied the authorship, ana the
Globe then said it only gave the substance ,
of the letter, and added that Gen. Han SAD

All these things with many more uttered by
the Globe were false in whole and in part. l
don't know whether that camel can stand an
other straw or not, bat if it can it must have a
terrible backbone. l suspect 1t has .been SO
constantly bent that it now rests on the ground
and will not break, but must finally rot off.
Ii you keep watch of my letters l doubt not
you will find me writing paragraph begln-
ming: 'The Globe was started by --, IN
March A, 1872, ETC."
James g. Blaine made three campaign
speeches in saehusetts-BoSton, Lynn, Sa-
lem and Beverly. At all, save Salem, his re-
ception was the most dcmonstrative ever seen
in this state. Salem, of course, remembers
that "attack on Massachusetts," to which
neither of our Senators could reply to any pur,
pose Salem is hostile, and she felt too, that
her Geo. B. Loring could have set the whole
state right on that point. &c. all in all, Salem
did not ''go Wild over Mr.. Blaine when he
came, as did Lynn aud Boston, but when he
left his friends had increased many fold. 1
wish he could speak all through this state.
The people here have a prejudice against him.
1t is very strong. But it is merely because
they do not know him. They would come to
like him when they knew him better. Why
hardly any of our people ever saw him or
know anything about him.
The scene at the newspaper Offices last eve
ming fairly beggars description. Washington
street, fron State to School, was a perfect jam
and every one was wild as demon. 1t was
long after midnight when the crowd broke up
The centre of attraction, of course, wa;

crowd was perfectly fearful. Every new re-
turn was the signal for an outbreak of ap

menting his defeat SCOTT.

THE ELECTIONS.
The Republican State Ticket in
New York Probably Elected.
SUCCESS OF THE DEBT-PAYERS IN
VIRGINIA.

New York Nov. THE latest returns up
to daylight to-day, from the sixty counties IN
this State, show that all the Republican state
ticket, with perhaps the exception OF Souie 1or
State Engineer, is elected. The Times says
Hoskins' majority over Potter is 100 for Lieu
tenant Governor: Wadsworth has 50oo MAORI
ty over Olcott for Controller; Carr nearly the
same majority over Beach 1or secretary "
State The Senate by amended returns VIII
stand % Republicans to Democrats, and the
Assembly OF Republicans to "a Democrats.
The Albany Journals latest returns give
Hoskins over 1000 majority over Potter.
: ALBANY. Nov. THE Evening Journal has
additional returns OH the State ticket, and
figures Potters (Dem.) for Lieut.. Governor,
majority $40. 1t says returns generally ind
cate Carr, Secretary of State, Wadsworth
Comptroller, Wendell, Treasurer, and Ward,
Attorney General, all Republicans, are consid-
erably ahead and probably elected by from
1000 to 5000 majority.
NEW YoKK, Nov. THE Republican State
committee claim the election of Hoskins, Lieut..
Governor. The Democrats on the contrary
still claim Potter's election as Lieut.. Governor,
Beach, Secretary of State; Mackin, Treasurer,
and Seymour, State Engineer, but acknowledge
in doubt the Comptroller and Attorney Gen.
eral.
New YORK, Nov. THE Herald says it
looks at present as though Potter and Seymour
have been elected by small majorities, but the
vote on the State ticket from Lieut.. Governor
down is so close that it will probably take an
official count to determine it.
The SUMS returns give majority of 2162
for Potter for Lieutenant Governor The fig
ures may be diminished by official returns
enough to elect Hoskins, but the Democrats
still claim Potter's election and with seeming
" good reason. The election of Horatio Sey-
mour Jr., Dem.) State Engineer and Survey
or seems to be conceded by both parties. The
best that can be said of the other candidates is
that the vote is in doubt, with the chances i'll
favor of Wadsworth's election as Comptroller
Oh the Republican ticket, and Wards as At
torney General. Gen. Carr's friends urge
| that he is running enough ahead OF his ticket
to eusure his election as Secretary of State.
| The race between Mackin and Wendall for
Treasurer is very close and the result is great
| ly in doubt.
| ALBANY, Nov. THE Argus (Dem.) esti-
mates Cornell's plurality at 81 ,332; Potter's
majority 4, S66, and claims the remainder OF the
State officers by less maiorities than Potter's
| The Express (Rep.) estimates Cornell's ap-
parent majority 1868; Hoskins' apparent ma
iority 249.
| PHILADELPHIA, Nov. THE official MAORI
ty of Butler (Rep) for State Treasurer over
| the Democratic, Greenback and Prohibitory
candidates is 58,675. Greenback and Prohibi
ton votes very light.
| RICHMOND, Nov. 7.-Indications are that the
| Debt Payers will have small majority in bott
houses, but the vote is SO close that the otficia
count will be required to positively settle the
| contest.

Probably Fatal Accident.
SKowHEGAN, Nov. IA young son of d.
Lambert of Skowhegan was seriously injured
yesterday. He attempted to jump upon an
express wagon when his foot caught in the
wheel and he was carried around the axle
three times, breaking his leg and thigh. There
are very little hopes of recovery.
The Dangers of Gun Manufacturing.
BDDEFoRD, Nov Joseph Burgoyne, a
Frenchman OF this city, conceived the idea
that he could make gun cheaper than he
could buy one. Accordingly he procured a
piece of gas pipe of desired length, plugged the
end with moistened clay, put it in the fire and
then proceeded to turn molten lead into the
other end intending that it should run down
against they clay, cool and form plug. In a
moment the heat converted the moisture i'll
the clay into the steam, forcing out the mass
of lead which struck the Frenchman between
the ball of the right eye and the outer rim of
the socket, and passed through to just be-
hind the ear where an irregular shaped piece
of lead an inch and half long and as big
round as the little finger was taken out. His
ingenuity nearly cost him his life.

The Bridgeport Murder Trial Ended.

BRIDGEPORT, CT. Nov. AT the opening
of court this morning the State Attorney said
that from evidence he could not ask a verdict
of murder in the first or second degree, and
had agreed with the counsel for the defence to
accept verdict of manslaughter, which under
the direction of the Court was given. Nc
Auliffe then made statement OF the circum-
stances attending the homicide. He claimed
to have risen about $50 while his wife was
getting breakfast and had fixed the stovepipe,
bending his knife in the operation. He threw
the knife on the table and was soon engaged
in an alteration with his wife, in the course
of which he pushed her to the floor. He
could not tell whether she had the knife in
her hand or not. She arose and he soon went
out and did not return until afternoon. His
wife was then on the floor in the bedroom, but
he did not go in to see her. A boy reported
her as bleeding but he supposed it to be from
a trifling injury such as she!sfrequently re-
ceived while intoxicated, and went out again
and was arrested on his second return. He
had lived with her twenty years and had never
before been arrested. The Court sentenced
him to three years in state prison and 81 fine.

Unprecedented Financial Distress in

Private letters from Constantinople confirm
the reports of extreme distress in the financial

before occurred since the establishment of the
Ottoman Empire.
