assaulted by several blacks in the even
Ing, as he was proceeding homeward after
business, and his death was the result.
! Three Of his assailanes were convicted Of
| the murder, and two were hung, while
the sentence Of the third was commuted
to imprisonment for life. The general
impression was that the President would
intervene il the case OF the two victims

Democratic Troubles,

The Democratic Senators caucuscd again OF
Saturday. In spite Of the advice OF the lead
ing men on tho Democratic side, MessIs. Hill
Salisbury, Vance aud Jonas persisted in theil
determination that tho Spofford- Kellogg mat
tor should be brought up In tho Senate, nc
matter what its effect in the North at the
coming clocton might bo. The discussion Is re-
ported rs very animated and not without bit
terncss. Leave was finally given Mr. Sauls
bury TO call mp the case after the GcnevH
award had been disposed of, unless IL should
be hereafter decided by a full caucus that II
ought not to be done. This was donc as
q sort Of soothing process to the demonstrutiye
gentlemen who would be appeascd in no other
way. IL is probable, however, that tho full
caucus will sit down on tho arrangement be-
fore the Geneva award bill is disposed Of II
n full caucus can bo secured carly this woclS,
final action will be speedily taken. Some
doubt is felt MS TO the ability Of tho leaders to
control the fonr gentlemen namel, who seem
for some reason TO make a personal matter OF
tho case. Senator Ransom seems content tC
let the other Democratic elephant, the Fitz
John Porter BILL rest quietly, at least for the
present.
