MINOR DISPATCHES.

BosroN, Mass, Aug 31.-Dr. Chas.
T. Jackson died at Somerville yes
terday. after an illness that had lasted
seven years. In his early life he was
engaged in geological surveys over a
considerable part of the northern
states. His long controversy with
Prof. Morse relating to electric tele-
graph excited much interest in the
early history OF telegraphy. The
use of an@sthetics to destroy pain
he regarded as the great discovery of
his life, but this claim was disputed,
which was bitter disappointment to
him. He was "a years of age.
RED BANK, n. j., Aug. pa dis
graceful prize fight took place here
this morning between Geo. Weed
and John Splanier. The ring was
pitchched few yards from the main
thotoughfare. The mill last

falling upon Splanier, the latter hav
ing his arm broken in two places.
Weed was severely punished. Nc

STEAMER BURNED.

DETROIT, Mich, Aug. 30-The
steamer Marine City, running be-
tween Mackinac and this port and
Cleveland, took fire at at two o'clock
this afternoon, two miles off Ale na,
thirty miles below Alpira, and was
burned to the waters edge. She
had large load of passengers. One
hundred and thirty are reported
saved and some are known to be
lost.
LArER-There is Ii tie news from
the wreck of the Marine City. The
steamer has foated ashore, but is
burned to the waters edge. The
latest statements are that the steam
er's books and papers were lost SO
that the work of ascertaining just
who was lost and how many will be
a work of some difficulty. 1t is
estimated that there were 12O pas
sengers and crew of 40 on board.
About 1870 are reported to have been
saved. The rest, it is feared, are
lost. Three bodies have been recov
cred but have not yet been identified.
On one of the bodies a cuff was
found marked with the name of
"Wat,on." The proximity of the
steamer to the life-saving station at
Surge Point, the GOODNESS of Capt.
Coner and crew, of the burned
steamer, and the fact that it was
daylight at the time of the disaster,
all aided in rendering the loss of lie
comparatively small.

SECRETARY THOMPSON ON
THE SITUATION.
He is SanSuine OF Success ia An-
diana.

Special 20 the Cincinnati Commercial.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 29.-Secretary
Thompson, who returned on Saturday,
says that he does not find very much
to do in his department just now,
and he expects to return to Indiana
about the middle of next month, and
remain there until the October eIec-
ton. He is very much interested in
the campaign in his state, which be
opened at Terre Haute, previous to
his visit to Ca ifornia. In answer to
a question concerning the outlook,
he says that from his conversations
with persons whom he met in his
own neighborhood, he judges that
Porter will be elected over Landers
in October. He says there can be no
doubt that the result of the Cincin-
natl convention was to produce an
unpleasant condition of feeling among
the de- ocratic leaders. Hendricks
and Mcdonald are both disap-
pointed, and this, added to Landels'
unpopularity, gives a great advan-
tage to the republicans. Mr.. Tkomp
son says that very important changes
from the democracy to the republi-
cans are reported to him, especially
in the soathe-n part Of the state.
Landers went to New Albany last
week to attempt to heal up the dis
cord there, but Thompson says the
detection to Porter of such men as
the millionaire manufacturer De-
Pauw, of Newland, and the Davis
brothers must be in the nature Of a
blow between the eyes of Landers.
He reports that large numbers Of
the greenbackers are going to vote
the republican ticket this year, while
Landers' avowed greenbackism hurts
him with the democrats.
Mr.. Thompson says that the dem
ocrats have injured themselves very
much by attacking Garfield as q
salary-grabber, when the fact is that
he turned his back pay into tho treas
ury, while three of their most prOmi-
nent men, Voorhees,, Manson and
Niblack, took the money and kept it..
He also says that the declaration by
General Butler III favor of Hancock
will injure the democracts very much
in Ohio, Indiana and Illinois, where
he has been bitterly denounced as a
thief for many years in all the dem
ocratic papers.

How the Republicans are to be
overcome m south Carolina.

From the Charleston News and Courier
The democrats can meet the re-
publicans and overcome them as
they did in 1876, and in no other
way. II we allow them to c6nsoli-
date the colored vote, we shall be
beaten. They will not have more
votes than the democrats, if the white
people, as they did four years ago,
exert themselves individually to Sc
cure or neutralize colored votes. The
election does not depend on the
machine, as some persons suppose.
It depends on votes. There is no
manner of doubt that, if the democ-
racy abstain from political work, they
will be defeated. To win, they must
labor even harder than in 1876.

OURAY'S SUCCESSOR.

Los P1Nos AGENCY, Aug. %, VIA
LAKE C1TY, Aug. 30.-A grand
council assembled here to-day to de-
eide upon Chief Ourays successor.
Chief Saporonari will undoubtedly be
the man. He had charge OF the af-
fairs last winter during Ouray S alb
cence in Washington, and showed
considerable executive ability. Nei-
ther he or any man in the nation,
however, is equal of the late chief.
The chief commission has accom-
plished nothing since Ouray was first
taken sick. Ignatis, of the Southern
Utes, is bitterly opposing the treaty.
The time in which the treaty must
be ratified expires on the 18th OF
October.

DISGRACEFUL AFFAIR IN
BROOKLYN.

New YORK, Aug. 30.-Geo G. Har-
ward, a young and promising lawyer,
and friend named Peter j. Larkin,
were attacked and stabbed by q par
ty of roughs in Brooklyn last night
while protecting two women from
insult. Harvard spent the evening
wi b some friends, and between one
and two o'clock started for his home,
in company with Larkin. At Bond
and State streets they observed two
women who were heing followed by
three rough looking characters, OF
whom the women appeared to be
afraid. Harvard and his friend
spoke to them and they walked along
together until reaching Atlantic and
Bond streets, when the three men
who had followed them came up and
Harvard said: "What are you follow
ing us for?" Oily a few words passed,
when blows were exchanged, and
while Harvard and Larkin defended
themselves with their fists, their as
sailants drew knives and slashed
away at both. Harvard was stabbed
to the heart, and running a few feet
three up his hands and fell dead on
the pavement. Larkin FASTENED
forward to assist his friend, but
when STOPPING to raise him found
that he too had been stabbed and
was bleeding profusely from wound
in the neck.
The police appeared and secured
one Of the assallants, Thomas Tur
ney, porter, who denied being i'm
pllcated in the affair, but marks Of
blood were found on his face and he
was locked up. Tonight Walter j.
Best, a bother, and Joseph II. Hur.
ley, laborer, were arrested, the
former as the murderer of Harvard
and the latter as an accomplice
Larkens wounds are painful, but not
dangerous. The women acknowl
edge calling upon two men for pro-
lection, but say they did not see the
stabbing. Harvard leaves a wife
and two children.
New YORK, Aug. 30.-A murder
yesterday by the stabbing of lawyer

The Maine Liouor Law

To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
 A friend from Maine in coming to reside in Hartford remarked that he was struck with the difference of aspect here and there in re- speet to liquor saloons. (We think his blow would be quite as forcible If he should come to New Haven.) He says that in Maine, mo- where in city or town, can one see a place where Intoxicating drinks are publicly sold. No doubt there is some secret selling, but there are no public dramshops. Here, how thick are those breathing holes of the pit, doing their work of ruin under the sanction of the civil authority! Let public opinion reverse it's practice and prohibit what is so well known to be an evil, without one redeem ing feature. ***
