THE WRECKED VIRGINIA.
Further Particulars.

New YORK, July lS.-A dispatch
from Halifax says that the purser and
the boats crew of the steamer State OF
Virginia, wrecked on Sable Island, are
extremely reticent, fearing that any
published statement would prejudice
their case before the Board OF Trade in
vestigation. On Friday, the llth, a
dense fog set in and continued until
Sunday morning at s o'clock. On Sat
urday night, when the captain thought
he was twenty-five miles off the east
side of Sable Island, and during the
dense fog, the ship struck on a sand
bank, fifteen miles from the residence
of Gov. Mcdonald. The minute guns
brought the Governor and his family
along side in the surf boats, and the
purser, doctor, fourth officer and
eleven women and children were landed
safely. Notwithstanding the heavy serf
Gov. Mcdonald returned for the second
boat load OF eighteen people, but when
within fifty feet of the shore the boat
swamped and one old irish lady sank
without any effort TO save herself. All
further attempts to land were useless,
until 2 p. NJ, when the water became
calmer and the ships boats were launch
ed, but two boat loads, after getting
short way found il impossible to land
and no further attempt was made
until next morning. Every available
barn and shed was brought into requi-
sition for sleeping accommodations and
quantity of cheese and other eatables,
portions OF the cargo which were float
ing about, were secured, besides some
seventy head of cattle that had swan
ashore. By six o'clock on Monday
morning she settled down in the sand,
and il was determined to make imme-
diate efforts to get every soul,on shore.
All the boats were launched, and the
surf boats from the shore again put
off. All the remaining passengers and
crew get into them after a great deal OF
exertion, and landed safely some seven
miles distant, at So'cloek Monday night
The purser, accompanied by thirty pas
sengers and nine OF the crew, left Sable
Island in an open boat to reach the
main land, TO procure assistance. Alter
many privations and several narrow es-
capes from drowning, they reached
small place called Port Pinkerton. The
agent OF the line at Halifax has made
arrangement for the government steam
er Glendon, to sail at noon tomorrow
for Sable Island, to bring the survivors,
who are expected to reach Halifax Mon-
day night.

WASHINGTON.
A case ior Volunteers.

'wAsHIxGroN, July lS.-The Cabinet
meeting to-day was very brief With
the exception Of few routine matters
the only subject under consideration
was the request of the National Board OF
Health that medical officers OF the navy
be detailed to foreign countries where
the fever is known to exist for the pur-
pose OF examining all vessels bound for
the United States and 30 such as are
not infected, the issuing OF
clean bills of health. The ques-
ton arose whether under the act
empowering the Board, such details
were mandatory, but it was not finally
determined. The sentiment of the
members present appeared tdJbe that it
would be very unjustto detail these off
GERS to such places at the risk of their
lives. 1t is known that there will be
considerable hesitation about ordering
either the army Oh naval surgeons TO
such duty, unless, as in the case OF the
supply ship sent down the Mississippi
river last summer, voluntary offers shall
be made.
The War secretaryship.
WASHINGTON, July lS.-Erom infor-
nation obtained at the Executive Man
sion to-day, there is no doubt of the
correctness of the assertion heretofore
published in regard to the successor OF
Secretary McCrary. Ex-senator Ram
sey, OF Minnesota, has been rendered
the Office of Secretary of War, and has
accepted. The change will not occur
however, until the present Secretary re-
tires.

TENNESSEE BOND SUITS.
An Unexpected Development.

NASHVILLE Jnly lS.-A development
in the suiis brought by the holders
OF Tennessee bonds against the railroads
Of this State, is attracting much atten-
ton. Ar effort is being made by the
bondholders to have motion to ap-
point receiver for certain roads, heard
on the 26th instant. Judges Baxter and
Trigg, the Circuil and District Judges,
are passed over and out of the nine
Judges of the Federal Supreme Court,
Judge Strong is selected, though
this district is in Judge Swayne's
circuit. In the we'll known case
of the st. Paul, Minnesota, Railroad
Company, VS.. Chamberlain and others,
the Supreme Court rendered decision
thought TO be conclusive of many of the
questions made in these cases, and set
ting them adversely TO the bondholders'
claims. Judge strong alone dissented
from this opinion. The present move
is regarded as an attempt to defeat the
adoption OF the settlement of the State
debt by the people at the August cleo
ton.
The american says Judge Strong, how
ever, stands so high as an able and up
right Judge that it is believed here his
situation is a fortunate one for the rail-
road companies, for il he settles the
questions involved in accordance with
the rule in the Chamberlain case, as it
is felt here, he must do, for the case pre-
sented here in behalf of the railroad
companies, is much stronger one than
shown in that case, the bondholders
will abandon the further prosecution OF
their suit.

Peace Negotiations in zululand.


r LONDON, July 1S.--A special from
headquarters, Camp Umvollosi, dated
June 29th, confirms the report OF the
sending OF tusk to the British camp.
Cetewayo promised that the rest of the
cattle and the two cannon captured at
Isandula would follow. Lord Chemls-
ford sent a message, saying that he
would delay crossing the Unyolossi one
day and consent 10 accept the disarma-
ment Of i, 900 Zulus instead of an entire
regiment. During the day of grace thus
granted three great columns OF Zulus
were seen to leave Ulundi and occupy
the bush between that place and our
camp and the intention to make night
march on Ulundi was therefore aban.
doned. Gen. Wolsely has sent an officer
here asking for full information on all
military points.

CHARLESTON. w. VA.
An Attempted Lynching.

CHARLESTON, w. Va, July l7.-Even
this choice bit of news is almost laid on
the shelf by the rumor of another lynch
ing at Hinton, this State. The particu-
lars, as cleaned by interviews with par
ties who were present, are as follows;
Last Saturday a negro walked into the
telegraph office at Hinton, and desired
to send a message to Coal Valley in ref
erence to the recent lynching of Mort
Lee. Mr.. Peck, the operator, told the
negro that the message was IN some
way wrong, to which the negro replied
that il was a damn lie. This the operator
resented by knocking the negro down;
two other darkies came to the rescue,
and were served in a like manner by the
plucky Peck. The next thing then was
for the negroes TO hold caucus, and
they decided they would lynch Peck
that night to avenge the wrongs of the
three darkies and also retaliate upon
the whites for the hanging OF Mort Lee
kilograms were sent up and down the
road that the negroes were getting up a
mob, and the miners and Government
hands at once captured a special train
and went to Hinton, determined TO make
a clean sweep of every negro who
dared to take part in mob.
When they arrived at Hinton
they found several of the ringleaders in
caucus-aSsembled to mob the town, and
preparing programme for the mob that
was to gather that evening. They were
at once taken in hand by the white men
and about forty lashes were delivered
on the naked back of each with raw
hide. They were then released with a
solemn warning never to try such a
thing again. A negro woman who made
herself prominent by telegraphing for
other negroes to join the mob, was given
five lashes. The crowd then dispersed
and quietly went home. This spirit OF
mobOcracy is too common in this val
ley, and unless suppressed by the au-
thOrities will end in bloody riot at no
very late day.

British Parliament.

LONDON, July 1s.-In the House of
Commons last night. the Marquis of
Harrington moved resolution declar-
ing that any bill contemplating the re-
tention Of corporal punishment in the
army would be unsatisfactory. The res
olutiOn was rejected by 2S9 to 1873. This
is the largest vote the government has
received for some time.
In the House OF Lords, the Marquis
OF Huntley complained of railway COM
panies for carrying American meats at
lower rates than English, because OF the
larger quantities in which the former
are sent. He pointed out that such ac-
ton was protection for the American
farmers, and asked whether the matter
had been brought TO the attention OF the
Board of Trade and the Commission on
Agricultural Depression.
The Duke of Richmond replied that
the granting of preferential rates was a
violation Of the law, but Lord Helborne
doubted it.
