1t is announced, by authority of Secre-
tary Sherman, that the Treasury Depart
ment will soon make arrangements to ex-
sshaRg sRates h52aa 81 apd m msEsr tbe coin for United
different parts Of the countl ISL .eo IL
sumption act provided for the redemption
of United States notes in coin at the sub
Treasury in New York only on and after
January 1st 1879. Resumption was
thus confined to one sub-Treasury be-
cause it was feared that the demand for
gold would be too great to be supplied if
the coin were distributed over the coun-
try. Since the 1st Of January only $10,-
100000, in round numbers, for United
States notes have been presented for re-
demption at the New York sub Treasury.
The gold coin reserve, which was, on the
1st Of January, $135, 383, 1894 has been
increased to $150000,000, in round
numbers. 1t will be seen that there has
been an actual gain, allowing for the
amount of legal tenders redeemed in New
York, in the gold reserve of about $685.
100000. Most of the gold paid out of
the sub-Treasury in New York has gone
into the coin reserves of national banks
Very little gold coin has entered into
general circulation. The .sub-Treasuries
at New York, San Francisco and New
Orleans have now all the gold coin on
hand they want. Gold can be shipped
to a majority Of the sub-Treasurers in
other cities from Washington within
three or four days time. 1t is expected
that the order for resumption at all sub
Treasures will be issued next week.

FATHER VAHEY AND His CHURCH.
The troubles of St. Patrick Church have
at last been settled. 1t appears that the
congregation of St. Patrick's Church, in
Fond du Lac, did not collectively shut
the doors against Father Vahey, but that
only one man refused to give him the
KEYS to the church Father Vahey, not
wishing to become involved in any contro-
versy there, returned to this city and re-
sumed his pastrol duties Of ST. Patricks
Church, which he declares he is now en-
joying, and will continue to form the fact
that Arch bishop Henni yesterday en-
powered the committee of that church to
employ or not employ Father Willard as
their pastor. This body, in the name of
ITO families, members ofSt. Patrick's con-
gregation, notified Father Willard that
they did not want his services, that they
will lock the church against him, and if
necessary use violence in enforcing their
decision. This it is said, will end the
unpleasant affair.
The following document addressed to
Father Willard, recently appointed to
succeed Father Vahey, explains itself.
1t was sent to him last evening:
SAINT PATRIcK's HALL, Sept. 16.-Rev. Geo. L.
Willard:-SIR:- We, the undersigned, Committee
of Saint Patrick's Church. most respectfully wish
you to distinctly understand that we will not al
low the Rev. Father Vahey to be removed from
u.s. under any consideration. So that you need
not think of.coming to Saint Patrick.s Church as
our pastor. Ifyou wish an interview with us
please appoint an evening, and will meet you at
Father Valleys residence. We called on the Most
Reverend Archbishop and had an interview with
him to that effect, and he told u.s. (Signedl

Gen. Stewart L. Woodford, who went
with Mrs. Chisolm to attend the trial of
Henry J. Gully for the murder of Corne-
liza Chisolm, statei; The trial was a
dreary farce from beginning to end.
Judge Hamm did his duty fearlessly and
justly. ThomasS S. Ford, district attorney,
did his duty we'll and bravely. [ think
the prosecution made out clear and
complete case Of murder The charge of
the judge was distinct, direct and positive,
and yet the jury were only out long
enough to take one ballot, and write a
verdict. don't know how to account
tor this verdict on any grounds that are
not discreditable either to the intelligence
or moral sense of the jury, and I do not
think that the nine white men on the
jury were lacking in intelligence. The
three negroes evidently possessed neither
brains nor courage. The whites We're all
Democrats, so were two negroes. The
Jury was fairly drawn. The verdict does
not represent Gilo 6 +l, e,raat mo-,
of negroes nor white Republicans, nor yet
OF a small minority of the sober and law
abiding Democrats. These three classes
combined constitute a clear and decided
majority OF the citizens and legal voters
of the county. l am sadly and reluctant
~ compelled to say that | believe the YER
dict truthfully and honestly represents
the present judgment and wishes of the
general majority of white men of Kemper
county, and they think it was unfortun-
ate but natural and almost excusable that
Judge Chisolm, John P. Gilmer and
Amos Mcclellan were shot by the mob in
DeKalb.

EUROPEAN RAILwAYs.-In 1s47 when
the development of railway business was
still in its infancy on the European con-
tinent, and lines existed only between
the great national capitals, the Directors
of the German railways formed an asso-
citation for the purpose Of establishing
nerfect harmony, in the administration Of
their respective lines. In lS50 this assO-
citation comprised representatives for
thirty-seven lines; in 1878, for ITO, the
Austro- Hungarian, Italian, Dutch and
Scandinavian railways having joined in,
and it has worked with great success to
the benefit both of the companies and the
public. In several cases it has acted as
mediator between rival lines, and pre-
vented an outbreak of that cut-throat
competition which is generally ruinous to
the companies and detrimental to the
public. It is also due to it's efforts that
freight car can be rolled from the south
ernmost point of Italy to the northern
most point of Jutland without unloading
It seems, however, that the benefcient
activity of this association must now come
to sudden stop. In Prussia the State
owns the greater part of the railways of
the country, and negotiations are carried
on to buy up the rest. Thus the Prus-
sian State would become by far the most
important member of the association, but
just at this moment the Directors of the
Prussian State lines have received orders
from the Prussian Government to leave
the association. The reason for this Or
der is not exactly known, but its despotic
character is full appreciated in Germany,
and even people who are used to feed on
admiration Of Prince Bismark begin to re-
gard him as a spirit Of disturbance.

COsT OF BEING UNION MAN.-Clarks-
burg(West Va, Telegram: In the Brax-
ton County, Yves tVa., Jail has confined, for
year, a man named Fl. Beasley, who is
being prosecuted by the rebel element of
that section, and whose case appeals to
the charitable. In 1862 this man was re-
peatedly threatened and assaulted for be-
ing Union man, and, as a matter of
safety, entered the Union Army, enlist
ing in Company F, Tenth West Virginia
infantry. In the same year, while visit
ing his home on leave of absence, he was
assaulted on account of his Union princi-
pies by two men named Fox, and In the
difficulty one of the Foxes was wounded
in the leg. Beasley returned to his COM
pany, where he was tried by court-martial
and acquitted. In 1868 the records
of his case were burned at Beverly, all
his witnesses being since dead or scatter
ed. In 1878 Fox procured an Indictment
against him for assault with intent to
kill in 1862, Is years before, and Beasley
was arrested and lodged in Jail, 10 mother
less children being thrown ON the mercy
OF few friends. He is very poor and
unable to employ counsel for a proper
defense, the County Court refusing to al
low any order for a fee for that purpose.
This is not to be wondered at when II
members Of the court were Secessionists,
and of the Ii Confederate officers. In
the same county there are shown by the
records 50 indictments against rebel sol
diers for arson, burglary, robbery, grand
larceny, ETC., yet none have been prose
cuted, but this man, being a Unionist, is
in Jail because he cannot get fair trial,
a man who volunteered to act as his
counsel being assaulted therefor.

A WATER4SPoUT- STRANGE PHENo-
MENoN AT NEWPoRT.-A special dispatch
from Newport, R. l., says:
"Those who were on the beach at New
port between II and II o'clock yesterday,
or in any elevated position, had the op-
portunity of seeing water-spout. It
was in the shape Of funnel, and was con-
nected with dark, heavy cloud over
head. 1t was located about two miles
from the shore, and could be seen for
about fifteen minutes when it gradually
disappeared. The ocean under the spout
for some distance was in a wild state of
commotion. Nothing of the kind was
ever seen in this vicinity before. No
sooner had the spout made its appearance
than heavy thunder storm burst upon
certain sections of the city, flooding the
streets, while in other localities not a
drop Of rain was seen. 1t was altogether
a sigular phenomenon

TIE THIRD TERM NOMINA TON DIS
PTTED.


WASHINGTON, April 2G.-The Republicans
do not believe that their candidate for Presi-
dent can carry any Southern State next year.
But those who advocate Grant for n third term
have not doubted that he would receive the sup
port Of the solid South in the nominating Con-
vcntion. The old slave States will have nearly
twO-lfths of the delegates. Regarding this nu-
mcrica force as paid-up capital to start with,
Grants friends have secuted the idea that any
competing candidate stands the slightest chance
OF a nomination. Indeed. with the aid OF the
lung power Of tho Southern delegates. they ex-
poet to carry him through by reclamation.
But in truth the Southern horizon is more
cloudy for Grant than his enthusiastic admir-
ors imagine Tho organization Of the Repub-
lcan party in that section was perfect and
vigorous in the days OF carpet-bag rule. 1t has
now fallen into decay. In many Congress dis
tricts there is no organization at ALL while in
Ave or six States the old party machinery is
broken in pieces. The present de facto Admin
stration IRE taking advantage Of this chaotic
condition OF affairs to get up n reorganization
Of the purity In the States below the Potomac
and the Ohio. John Sherman heads the new
movement. which means anything but the sup
port OF Grant in the nominating Convention.
Sherman's local managers in the ro-
organization arc the present and the
proximate Federal ofIlccholders in the South
the collectors surveyors. weighers. and other
subordinates in the custom houses. the post
masters. the marshals. tho tax gatherers. and
the rest Of the grand army Of officials who draw
pay and rations from the national treasury over
which Mr.. sherman presides. With the abso-
Lutte control Of this powerful machinery. in six
teen States where the Republican party ia weak.
disorganizcd. dsprited. without local leaders.
destitute Of funds. and for sale, It will be sur
rrising II sherman and his coadiutors are not
able to do their share in the packing OF the next
national Convention. ALPHA.
