Old Renders Confession.

Bender has made the following statement: : His name is Alexander McGregor. He was born in the State of New York. Lived there Jill he married his first wife. When
 he married he had one child called William
 Houck, begotten in adultery. After being married two weeks, John Bender, his son,
 was bOrn They then moved to Illinois,
 where Kate was born. Kate and John were good children, but ran away when seven
 teen years old and went 10 Kansas. His first wife died in Illinois with consumption. After two years he married his second wife. She had three children. Her name was
 Nancy Peasey. The children all died. He had no children by tIs second wife while
 living in Illinois, where he committed his
 first murder. He killed short, dsrk-haired man, sent him down the cellar through trap door, got some money from him and
 buried him two rods back of the house.
 The old woman helped to bury him. Thence they went tO Independence, Ia, where he worked on farm at his trade of black smithing. After a while they went to Kan >as They had heard from Kate and Joh n,
 Nho wrote for him to come on. He went to
 Kansas to live with John and Kate. and
 Maggie, his cousin, who were ttere at
 place called Renders Hotel. After being
 there a few days he helped John to make a
 ,rapdoOr. the same as he had in 1lIinoIs. The first man killed would not % on the
 ,rapdoor. He and Kate slept together and
 she killed hjm with a butcher knife. She showed him the knife ana buried him near
 the house. The only man whom he ever killed alone in Kansas was a peddler. He hit him on the back of the head with a stone hammer. and got good deal of mon- ry from hIm. but don't kDow how much.
 He remembers others that were killed. One man killed and put hun under the ice.
 I wo little childr, n. both girls, were buried alive. The children were seven or eight years old. Their parents were killed the Iay before Benuer used to stard behind 'hc curtain and push the trardoor. Kate and Maggie were always down in the cellar Co cut tue victims throats. He often heard ttem whettlng their knives. John and Kate used 10 sleep together. Leanier smith WAS Rates lover. Justice Grimsaw used to be Maggies man.

The New York Herald says:

The New York Herald says
 The Democratic canvass has opened like the uncorkIng Ct q champagne bottle, with a whIrr and nzz and gush of foam. The novel accomplishment of nominating q Presidential candidate by spasm of com mon sense after twenty years prevalence of political lnnaCy in tte party was Inyig- oratiDg. Delegates, sane and insane rushed into concurrence upon General Hancock and it has turned Democratic heads and made hem frIsky. To trus, the talk in their conferences and Ihe boasts in their news pa- per organs, one would imagine that all that remains to be done by or for General Han cock Is To pack his trunk and sli on he lid, waiting for an expIessman to check II to Washington and deliver it at the White House.
 Spectators will be apt tO get an impres- sion that the return of the Democratic san ity was only temporary and the party has suffered relapse.
 The Rcpunllcan party IS not to be busted by a mere hurrah ur by the beating of tom toms. The walls Of its Jericho will not tumble al the blast of rams horns.
 For steady drlnk during the campaign we recommend still wine, of sound body, tO the Democrats in preference 10 the froth which they are guzzling at the pres mt mo- rnent.
 The occasion for break up in the Re publican party was avoided at Chicago and every Republican faction IS forming into common IIne of battle.

Secretary Thompson's Speech.

As a convincing argument, devoid of sectional feeling, conspicuous for the sb- sence of anything savorirg of the "bloody shirt" business, and as powerful indict- meat of the Democratic party, with all the proofs necessAry to sustain the prosecution If tbe case to certain conviction and 8 yer aict If guilty at the polls before the great National Jury in November, the speech of Hon. Richard W. Thompson, of Indiana, Secretary of the Navy, st the Grsnd Opera House, San Francisco, on the evening of August 4th, lsS0. will probably have DO su- p"rior during the campaign. The Bulletin, Post and other San Francisco papers of the st4 contain itand if should be read by every seeker after historical and philosophical political truth. Secretary Thompson, is an old man, a man of brains and incorruptible political snd personal honesty and integrity, and withsl A man of ripest experience in positions of public trust, which enables him 10 rightly judge of the merits of those who aspire to rule in the Government
 Few, if any of the living statesmen of to- day car boast of so clear 6 record, and when he charges the Democratic party, as an or ganizatioB. with iscompetency and unit ness for the management of State affairs, he does so from his own personal knowledge of the record of that party during the past half century, and the proofs he adduces will be convincing to all candid. unprejudiced people who have sufficient intelligence to form an impartial judgment.
 k. W. Thompson IS, to-day, perhaps the best type ofa well preserved old line Henry Clay Whig that remains alive. For more than twenty years he was an active worker in that grand old party, in and out of Con- gress, and no man, now living, knows bet ter than he does the pernicious tendencies of the teachings of the Democratic party from its infancy until it died in 1860. He was at the funeral, helped to bury it, and knows how rotten its carcass is. The speeches of Carl Schurz and R. ". Thomp- son in San Fracisco, both of which are too long for review in these c0Ium ns, are master pieces of argument, and should be pre- served AS standard reading h every we'll household in America.

4 New Territory.

That portion of Arizona lying north If the Gila River, which Was obtained from the government of Mexico under treaty of Guadalupe HIdalgo, February 2nd, 1s4s, should be set apart by Congress fem tha: acquired by purchase from MeX.co in 1853, lying south of the Gila, as a new Territory. The area of country rorth of the Glla, known as Northern ArIzODa, would make a State almost double the size of that of New York, and sooner or later the Territory must be cut up for the purpose of forming . new territory We believe now to be the proper time, therefore We would suggest that the next Legislature memoualize Con- gress 10 cause a division 10 he made. We Rre not particular about retaining the name of Arizona, as there seems to be no accurate definition of the word, therefore Ne would suggest that the name gO 10 our friends lD south of the Gila, or do away with Inc name entirely, and let the southern people ad 'pt the more natural and applicable cosnomen of New Sonora. There seems to be but little utilization between the two factions in the Territory. Those living south If the Gila have but attlc love for those of the north, and rtcs re Su.
 There never has an opportunity presented itself but what the dagger of Southern Ari- zona has been sent Co the hi,t in fhc thrUsts made a, ibe progress of al that country from the silvery waters ofthe salinas to inc northermost portion of the Territory. Two great transcontinent1l Railways are tIa- versing the Territory. one huggiHg closely the line of Mexico, while tEIt ot tue noIth is following the a5th parallel. The two lines arc in direct opposition and have DO tendency to make our relations with South ern Arizona any more harmonious Tie people of Pima County have hcaped debt upon our shoulders and laughed iu their sleeves at ou- misfcrturcs. r is time tha; we declare independence from cur common foe. pay our debts and joc.ue great and powerful through the agency ol the Atlantic & Pacific R. R. our great mineral. agri cultural and other resources. We have educated the roor ,bidFen of fSou'hern Ali zona, helped them open up public highways. and in return have received bad name. The people or the south hate Us. and se say mos, emphatically that a new Territory Is desirable.

The South American War.
fS. r. News Letter.


 The Kilkenny cat quarrel between Chili on one side and Peru and Bolivia on the other, continues in its barbsrous course. Towns are bombarded and captured. liccn- tious guerrillas, whom it were an insult tO term soldiers, are let loose upon defeuseless people, and scenes of carnage, rtplnc and destruction cEsue that equal in atrocity anything the middle ages can produce. Wounded prisoners are slaughtered Tn cold blood, ana mothers, wives and daughters subjected to outrage worse than death. An insolent disregard is paId 10 foreign inter ests, and, so far as Peru IS concerned, tor eign trade is practically at an end, as all her sesports of any note are captured or blockaded Not only this, but foreign resi- dents are impressed to serve Tn quarrel in which they are not concerned. The Cpited States, Great Britain, France, Italy and Germany arc all largely interested in Peru through the commercial operations of their citizens residing there. It is time the Pow ITS named should make a united demaud for & cessation of hostilities, and that an in ternstioEsl tribunal should be arranged to adjudicate ,be questions of the War. In case either of fhe beliggerents refuse, an armed seizure should be made and the revenues applied to the payment of the for eign debt.
