At a. m. some murders were repor ted in
Tonic Basin and Pleasant Valley, west of
the feser alton. A party of citizens

to San Carlos agency to recruit compa-
ny of scouts. reports the burying of ten
or twelve men east of here on his route
from New Mexico.
The Bowie scare has subsidized and the
carpenters who left the station will re-
turn to day. Many of the freighters and
packers now here are preparing to take
their chances and start out. Two Indian
couriers arrived from Apache at 6 p. m,
who report everything quiet around the
POSty TIC u0OSiicS having ASAe Atc AAAs
mediate vicinity. 1t is said the bodies
of four white men near Black river,
probably those of the McMurran party.
Craig and Overton's command and
Clark's Indian scouts reached there with
out encountering any hostiles. Major

BOsToN, Sept. 6.-From early morning
to sunset the atmosphere has been in a
most curious condition, exciting much
comment. and in some instances creating
alarm While the air, as viewed from q
window or looking up into the sky, has
appeared to be free from tog or mist,
the sun has been totally obscured- The
atmosphere is pervsded with yellowish
light, which lends strange appearance
to every object. On the common, the
grass presents most unnatural
appearance, ITS livid green look
ing as though the result of q
coat of paint Gas jets, which Or
dinarily show a yellowish light, burn
with white brilliancy, which makes
them resemble electric lights In ell di-
rections distances appear to be shorten
ed. Through the windows could be
seen starlike points of white light, resem-
bling little electric lamps, but being in
reality gas jets. The phenomenon is no.
ticeable in New Hampshire and far east
of Portland. c. F. Emerson, professor
of natural philosophy and astronomy at
College, says it must be
in the atmosphere which alb
serbs the shorter and longer wave
lengths, leaving only those which give
the colOrs of yellow and green. He
thinks it may be owing to pollen from
Dir and pine trees, together with smoke
from the forest fires in Canada.

Jennie CrameR and Mary Stannard.
New York Herald.

/ N0W xOkk defo1o
The fact of arsenic being the poison
| found in Jennie Cramer's body and the
| fact that the prisoners are in the same
Jail where the Rev. Mr.. Hayden was con.
fined for over sixteen months naturally
| recall the Mary Stannard case, which is
| talked over with great detail here. 1t is
mentioned as an interesting fact that al
though the jury in the Hayden case
stood eleven for acquittal to one for con-
viction the prisoner was never discharg-
ed, but is still under IS, 200 bonds to APP
pear for trial when wanted. The arsenic
supposed to have been administered to
Mary 6tannard was about eighty grains.
In the case of Jennie Cramer it is believ-
ed that she took only about two grains,
the organs examined having cantain-
ed nearly four fifths of .
grain, and the poison being said by Prof.
Chittenden to be absorbed into all parts
of her body. As I wrote last night, the
fact of its being arsenic that was found
revives q story that was current before
her death to the effect that she was an
habitual arsenic eater. What foundation
there was for any such story beyond the
fact that she had q pure dead white
complexion" have been unsble to dis
cover; but ss DR. Lindsey, ~ho was her
physician, denies that such was the case,
it Is likely that the story was q bit of idle
gossip that would never have had any
Importance but for the circumstances of
her death.
The international silver Conference.

Mr.. VIM. Evsrts was among the pas

from Liverpool. He was accompanied
by his family, with whom he had trav-
eled after the close of the Monetary Con-
ference, to which he was q commissioner
from the United States. He said, gen.
orally. of the conference:
II think the American members are
satisfied with what was done toward &C.
curing q concurrence of all the CONNER
cial nations interested in the mono metal
lie proposition. All of the nations IN
vited were represented by faithful com
missloners, and, excepting few able
theorists, think there was universal con-
currence upon the questions discussed. At
any rate, it Is no longer purely theoret-
ical question, out has, think, become q
subject for practical thought The i'm
putation that the United States has
selfish interest on account of its silver
mines was relieved, and we do not hest
tate to say that We were largely interest
ed because we expected to take large
share of the world, and desired no diff
Guilty about the ratio of gold or silver,
or any but the ordinary calculations of
the rates of exchange. Some few ma
tions took the attitude that it would be
good thing, but they would rather
some other country would begin it.
The report of the commissioners will

The Outlook for tho President Very
Satisfactory.
Lore BRANCH, Sept z, 12m.-The sit
ustion regarding the Presidents condi
ton continues favorable, and the attend
ing surgeons and Cabinet officers express
themselves as entirely satisfied with the
present outlook. The morning bulletin
had the effect of allaying all unessiness
on the part of those who were extremely
anxious last night, and it is confidently
expected the favorable change will con-
tinue. The fact of the President having
had sufficient recuperative power to rally
from the depressed condition of last
night, is recei we'd as q very good indica-
,tion, and that his recovery is but ques-
ton of time. DIR. Bliss thinks the ocean
air will have . decidedly brscing eff
feet on the patient Attorney
General MscVeagh who. last night,
w. feeling Respondent is feeling in
good spirits this morning, and thinks
the change during the night almost mar
vclous- 1t having been decided to
issue ofheial bulletins but twice per day
il another good indication, and tends to
prove that the surgeons do not anticipate
. recurrence of any thing serious-
Tho weather to- day is said to be the
hottest of the season, the thermometer at
this hour being ninety in the shade, with

NKw YORK, Sept THE Democratic
State Central Committee has issued . cal
for State convention at Albany, Octo
Der nth.
The meeting was . full one. The fol
lowing resolutions were unanimously
adopted by . rising vote:
| Rsso1sed, That the peoples right to b.
represented in the Executive Office of the
| their own choice has now again been i'm
representative republic 10 . fundamental
this right be imperilled, as in
and fraud among the of6ce-holders
of the party in power aiming to
nullify the peoples verdict, or - now by
the bullet Of the assassin. Whatever his
motive, that peril should awaken in
every patriotic heart, not only the re-
spectful sympathy of freemen with the
victim of such atrocity, but also that po-
litical vigilance which is the cost of
maintaining the safeguard of civil
liberty.
Resolosd, That the members of the
Democratic State Committee, at the first
meeting since the attack on the President
of the United States, take this
occasion to record their indigna-
ton and horror at the infamous
deed and to express their heartfelt sym
pathy with the distinguished sufferer and
his stricken family in their affection,
with the earnest hope that the lsbors of
love and science for the restoration of tho
Chief Magistrate to health and to the
full exercise of the constitutional func-
tions of his Office may be soon crowned
with complete success.
