ARousing Reception to MT. Porter.
 INDIANAPOLIS, July 14.-Hon. A. G. Porter arrived here to-day and was met by large delegation of citizens and conducted through the principal streets to the Grand Hotel, where a reception was held At different points on the route wherever the carriages stopped crowds seized the opportunity and shook hands with the Republican candidate for Governor. He expressed himself conf dent of Republican success in the approach ing State and national elections, and accepts Garfeld's letter as having the right ring to it upon which to make a successful canvass After the reception this evening at the Grand Hotel MT. Porter was escorted to his resi- . dence and held reception from to 8 o'clock, when the march to the place of meeting was taken up and the procession marched through the principal streets. Owing to the heat and other causes the attendance from other parts of the State was not so large as was expect ed. Five thousand people were present MT. Porter is in capital health and never looked better, and barring the fatigue incident to travelling is in splendid condition for wig orous campaign. General Harrison and Hon. A. L. Morrison, of Chicago, made short in- teresting speeches, after which fireworks to the amount of $2, 900 were started in blaze heavenward.

The National Fete-Immense Enthusi-
 asm Among the PopuIace-A Big CeIe-
 bratfon a nd no Disturbance.
 PARIS, July 14.-At two o'clock p. m. (time when this dispatch is sent) the festiv- ities of the day are proceeding splen didly- Thus far the programme has been car ried out without break. The weather is grand. It is neither too hot nor too cool. The crowds in the streets are immense, in some places around the squares, churches and places of public resort almost amounting to a blockade; but nobody loses his temper, in- deed there seems to be 8 determined effort on the part of the masses to compel the day to mass without anincident to disgrace the name of the republic or the reputation of the new and great holiday. Order is everywhere preserved The police are almost useless in their official capacity, but vie with each other and with the multitudes in politeness and usefulness. The enthusiasm is indescribable The people cheer the symbols of liberty when they see them, and any well known member of the Government who appears in public, or any recognized friend or promoter of the new regime, is sure of popular ova- tion.
 Rochefort's new paper, issued this morn inp. declares hostility to Gambetta, and many well informed politicians freely say Gambetta will have occasion to regret his advocacy of the measure that enabled Roehefort to return to Paris The programme of to-day and even ing was successfully carried out and the whole affair was splendid success, and not yithstanding a thunder storm that passed over the city during the evening enormous crowds were surging through the streets sing ing and gazing at the Superb ilIunlinations There were no disturbances during the whole day.

soundly until o'clock this morning. There was nothing in his movements to indicate to his watchers, the deputy sheriffs, that his sIumbers had been broken by uneasy dreams, and when he arose this morning he was cheer full. He says his ear has been annoyed by the stereotyped query, ''How do you feel, Cox ?" by persons who have no real interest in him. and that he would prefer to have that class of visitors excluded, so that he might be left more to his own reflections. When breakfast was served he partook of it heartily and with his usual appetite. He is composed in man ner and speaks with calmness. The necessa- ry preparations have been made for the erec- ton of the scaffold tomorrow morning in front of the female prison.
 A meeting of colored citizens of New York was held tonight for the purpose of protest ing against the action of Governor Cornell who, they assert, despite his promise, re- fused to hear counsel for Cox. W. R. Davis was elected chairman. In a short address he reviewed the action of Governor Cornell, and pledged himself not to vote for one whom he asserted acted so unjustly. After other addresses, resolutions were passed ap- pointing William F. Howe and J. J. Freeman a committee of two to visit the Governor to- morrow and ask for respite of one week for Cox and the privilege of being heard in that time.

The Indian Territory-NO Truth i'm the Reports of an Invasion. WASHINGTON July 1.-The following tel eeram was received at the War office last night:
 FoRr LEAvENwoRTH, July 13. To the Adjutant General U. 5. Army, Wash Your dispatch of yesterday received. The senational reports in the papers about the in- vasion of the Indian Territory without foundation. Small parties of two or three men with their families occasionally enter the Territory, being misled by such reports, but they are always met and turned back by the troops. That whole section is thoroughly secuted by the troops, and any invasion of the least consequence will be reported at once It is useless to dignify these reports by any official notice or action beyond that which will be taken by the troops along the line Everyone who enters without author ity will be put out, and such people will as- suredly get tired of going in sooner than the troops will get tired of putting them out. I should not consider it in any sense expedient to undergo the trouble or expense of trying them It is just what they want and wou Id certainly result in their being discharged from custody I consider the military force now employed in this service able to keep the Indian Territory free of unlawful in- truders. I repeat herewith a dispatch dated yesterday from the officer in command at Caldwell, who had just returned from Arkan- sas City, whence this expedition is said to have started.
 (Signed) JOHN PoPE,
 Brevet Major General, Commanding.
 The following is the dispatch alluded to:
 Just returned from Arkansas City. Not one word of truth in the report about in vaders having gone into the Territory east of Arkansas City about the 10th inst. Only three wagons have entered and they were en route to Texas This is from reliable infor- nation. Will write you fully by mail this evening" (Signed) ROBINSON,

Germany.

 The Political situation-Germany Not
 Anxious for War-A Scramble that
 Would Please the Porte.
 BERLIN, July 1.-The official newspapers in their leading articles on the political situa- tion say if France remains quiet, making no effort in any way to take reprisals for losses of the late war, Germany has no wish but to remain in peace and friendship with all the powers of Europe. The articles bear marks of Prince Bismarck and are believed to lndl- cate his present policy to avoid imbroiling the empire in war, which is also the un- doubted wish of Emperor William.
 It is reported here that the Sultan's ex- pressions upon the result of the supplement tary conference have been such as to justify the expectation that he will make an evaslve reply to the collective note of the powers represented at the conference when 1t IS pre- sented to him, and secretly encourage war; hoping to gain something in the general con fusion between the different governments There is nothing new in this interpretation of the Sultans position, although it is borne out by the logic of the case.
 The Federal council has rejected the prop osition to reintroduce silver currency in Ger many, and the Government will, it is report ed, adopt means to expedite the melting up of what remains of old silver coin.

 Only the extreme Parnellites will obstruct the compensation for the disturbance in Ire land bill when it is brought up in the House of Commons tomorrow.

DENVER, July 14.-This evening Cherry Creek, which is usually very small stream, rose five feet The water came down with a rush, rising a foot in ten minutes. No dam age was done in the city, except the weaken ing of the bridge. It is thought the track of the California Central railroad will be washed away before morning. The rise was probably caused by waterspout in the mountains.
 dispatch, from Pueblo dated Monday says: 'tThere is worse Flood in the Foun- tain to-day than since 1S63 The torrent of water came down with a rush, carrying every thing before it. Of thirty persons camping in the river bottom all escaped but one. The railroad twenty miles from this place is washed out The river rose eight feet in less than an hour, and the emigrants camped along it's bottom lost almost everything. The flood was caused by cloud bursting.'
