New York, May Ex-senator Conk-
ling, in reply to the inquiries of friends,
said he was IN the hands of his friends
and would do what they thought best.
He did not think this state approved of
the course of the men who turned
traitors to Gen. Grant at Chicago. and
the state would show that its senator's
did right in protesting against reward
ing them.
Notwithstanding the confident talk of
the Conkling men last night. they were
all willing to admit that hard fight
would have to be made at Albany. By
the extraordinary precautions they have
taken to prevent disclosure of their
plans they have admitted that any vim
dication Conkling should receive
would not be of very much benefit to
him. The previous talk of Conkling's g
resigning to practice law was never SC
much as referred to; the $50, 900 offer
was not mentioned. 1t was not a
question any longer as to the candidacy
of the senators, but, could they be
electedp A number of administration
republicans were about the Fifth avenue
hotel last evening, but they we're not in
the least cast down by the announce.
ment Of the candidacy of the senator.
The anti -Conkling men claim that s.
republicans in the legislature are
pledged against the .ex- senators.

the situation at Albany.
New York. May 2s.-The Herald,
which for weeks has been glorifying
Conkling, to-day says: 1t was doubtless
grave mistake in Oonkling to resign.
as he did, for it was a slap in the face
TO his friends in the senate; but il
he meant by this. resignation TO show
his intention to abandon his relations
with corrupt party, he was right. 1t
also says the republican party has, in
general opinion, fulfilled its mission.
Why should it not go to pieces? Why
should any one of its honest voters
mourn over its disappearance 1t may
not be dead at this moment. but it is
rotten; it is a creature of railroad and
other corporations and monopoly in
fiuences; its most intimate relations are
no longer with the people but with the
railroad and telegraph kings-the Jay
Goulds, Stanfords. Huntingtons and
others of that kind, who own and con-
troll its managers and chiefs.
The World says: The duty of the
democrats at Albany to-day is to see
that no republican senators at all.
"half-breeds" or Thorough breeds. /"
"stalwarts' or 'sneaks." are elected
by the legislature which is now ex-
piring in an sodor of filth. When
the case goes before the people Of the
state the democrats will probably be
able to decide for themselves how to
handle their side Of it.

Charleston, S. C., May 23.-U. s.
marshal Blythe received yesterday
through Collector Jillson, the particu-
lars of shooting affray in Pickens
county last Thursday, between revenue
officers Gary and Looper, and two Illicit
distillers named Alexander, father and
son. Joab Alexander, the son, ran out
of his house, both doors Of which were
guarded by the revenue officers, and
fired a pistol at Looper, who returned
the fire with shot gun, infiicting
very serious and perhaps fatal wounds
on Alexander. The officers destroyed
one eighty-six gallon still and about
100 gallons of mash and beer.

strength of letter from st. Peters

announces that at Z O'Clock on the
morning of the 10th inst, just four
days after the birth of her child, Hessy

a confession from her. The excitement

immense. The troops are forbidden to
leave their barracks on any pretense
and a re solutionary movement seems to
be anticipated.

Washington, May 23.-Some express
slons Of dissatisfaction have reached
here from New York, because the pres
ident did not send in the names of men
hitherto anti-Conkling for the five Of
fees for which nominations were made
on Thursday. Those who complained
of this course do not comprehend the
presidents policy. He is not seeking
in the least to ostracize the republicans
who have been Conkling's s followers and
supporters in the past. 1t is evidently
the intention of the president to have 1t
fully, distinctly and widely known that
the object Of his administration is to
abolish the factions in New York, and
to have one grand, united, harmonious
and enthusiastic republican party in the
state. OF course this end cannot be
obtained by sending Conkling back to
the senate to wage vindictive and re-
lentless war on the administration. 0a

way, to cover their tracks. Great ex-
citement prevails here, and threats of
lynching are frequent.

New York. May 23.-The one dan
ger in the New York senatorial COM
plication is that if Conkling fails to
secure re election by republican votes,
he will try to make a combination with
the democrats in the legislature for the
return of himself with a democratic
colleague. That he cannot be elected
in any other way seems reasonably
sure

week, was performed by Drs. Stockman,

assisted by DIR E. F. Dodge, of Fond du

strange and unusual character of her dis
ease had awakened considerable interest
among the medical fraternity of this city
The autopsy revealed the presence of a
large Scirrhus Cancer, or what in common
parlance is known as ''Stone Cancer" in
yolving the whole of the right breast and
part of the left, and extending into the
thoracic cavity. The right lung was
literally compressed to small compass,
and the left lung was so compressed that
only about half of the organ did any ser
vice. The whole cancer was beneath the
integuments, hence diagnosis had not
been made for this disease. The i'm
mediate cause of death, was sufocation,
caused by Hydrothorax This disease is
very rare, and the physicians in perform
ing the autopsy, have made valuable
contribution to medical science.

THE BULL-FIGHT IN FRANCE.-The
news that several persons have been kill
ed and a number wounded at bull fight
in Marseilles may well cause consterua-
ton in the minds of those who watch the
progress of Republican France. When
/ was last in the South of France | heard
of entertainments more or less approach
ing bull-fghts being given in the Amphi-
theater at Nismes, and in one or two 9th
er places. These, however, was told, were
in every way less cruel and less danger
Gus than the proceedings over the Span
ish frontier. The same journals, howev-
er, which mention the accident at Mar
seilles, state that two toreadors have been
wounded in the course of bull-fght in
Nisnes. Hitherto the bull-6ght has been
the crowning and individual infamy of
the Spaniards, the most cruel of races
claiming quasi-civilization. That Eu-
rope ceased at the Pyrenees, and at the
other side the African asserted himself,
was the statement of one of the most
eminent of French statesmen. Deplora-
BILE indeed would it be for the future of
humanity if the republican government
to which all turn who hope for the flu
ture of the world should tolerate atroci-
ties, which Bourbon and Bonaparte alike
suppressed.-Gentleman's Magazine.

JUNEAU.

The Republican Assembly Convention
for this, Third district, will be held at
Minnesota Junction, on Thursday, Oct.
9th. AS far as can be learned Mr.. S,
G. Mcdowell, of Trenton, will be the
only candidate before the convention.
The democratic convention is to be held
here on Saturday. Samuel Eastman is
the Greenback candidate, but refuses to
run, and will hardly be endorsed by the
democrats.
Benjamin P. Bishop is the democratic
nominee for assembly in the Second dis
trict, and is opposed by Henry Spiering,
independent democrat, and Adolph
Kuechenberg, republican nominee. In
the First district w. Jesche has been
nominated by the democrats and is, so
far, the only candidate in the field, In
the Fourth district candidates are nu-
merous, but no nominations have as yet
been made.
The necessary steps have been taken
for the formation of the veteran Regi.
ment Dodge County Volunteers, and the
county divided into ten districts, each

panies are formed officers will be elected
Public attention has at last been called
to the disgraceful condition of our village
cemetery, it being entirely overrun by
weeds and grass, and no effort whatever
being made to keep weeds and unoccu-
pied lots in decent condition. Under
such circumstances any efforts of lot
owners to keep their lots and the graves
of departed ones adorned with flowers
&C., are unavailing.
