amount was paid out by the treasurer
during the past two years, and there
remains S4l4, ,S95 04, the amount ap'
portioned to the counties. The re-
Eceipts from interest on that part of the

On the tenth day of December, 1873,
Luther Mitchell and Ami Ketchum,
citizens of the state, were barbarously
put to death by a mob in Custer Coun-
ty. The perpetrators of this fearful
crime are supposed to be herders or
stock men living in that locality,
Three days ago the people OF this state
learned with satisfaction that all the
parties suspected of participation in
this cowardly outrage were safely
lodged in Jail. ! recommend that an
appropriation of $4,000 be made for
rewarding the men who risked their
lives in capturing those outlaws and
for the further purpose of asoertaining
their guilt or Innocence, and if guilty
to make their punishment swift and
certain.
The Governor refuses to condemn |
mob violence, and recommends to the
Legislature "the swift and certain pun

The Wandering Sphinx.

YOKOHAMA, July 29.-Grant's en-
tertainment continues chiefly to oc-
cupy public attenti IN. Since last
accounts he has visited various col
leges, pronouncing the cadets Of
the military schools as promising a
body as any similar seen by him in
Europe; witnessed the annual cere-
mony of the opening of the princi-
pal river of TOXIC which consists
of brilliant night congregation of
Illuminated boats and the most
successful OF all displays in his
honor, and theatrical performances
especially prepared. July II Grant
and party went to the shrines of
Lyeyasa, founder of the great Toku-.
gawa family at Nike, a famous and
sacred resort a hundred miles in
the interior. They return early in
August. Future movements are
undetermined, but it is supposed
Grant will visit the Hako Noun
tains and baths, Full Yama ia
pans highest mountain ,Kamakeer,
che ancient capital, and sail for
home at the end of August. A still
more elaborate entertainment-the
History Tournament-awaits him
on his return from Eighth Country.
SAN Francisco, Aug. 53.-Mail
advices from Picking state that
General Grant finds himself bur
dened with unexpected questions of.
Eastern policy. During a visit to
North China both Prince Kung and
Viceroy Ii Hung Chang laid before
him their side of the Loochoo con
troversy, asking him to use his in
huence with Japan to prevent a Sc
rious misunderstanding between the
two Empires. Grant is believed to
have replied that the other side
would doubtless be equally strong
when heard, and, though a rupture
would be lamented by all observers,
he did not see his right to interfere
The Japanese authorities, hearing
of this, have taken great pains to
prepare a documentary vindication
of their claim, which has been sub |
mitted for Grants inspection by a |
Cabinet Minister during his holi- |
day sojourn at Eiko. This appear
ance OF over anxiety does not com
mend itself strongly to spectators
generally, Japanese supremacy over
Loochoo being so plainly defined |
and thoroughly established as to |
need no superfuous demonstration,
but the circumstances are interest |
ing as showing the weight attached |
to Grants favorable view by both |
Governments. Recent traders re-
ports at Shangai show a great di-
minution of British transactions, |
while American commerce has near
ly doubled in the past year.
