WASHINGTON, June 23.-Gen. Brady to-
day through his counsel, shelIbarger &
Wilson, applied for immediate inVestiea-
ton, by the grand jury. of the Star route
charges, as the press had bitterly assaulted
him and the Government agents had been
procuring false evidence against him and
ne objects to the case being postponed till
fall, claiming the privilege of u speedy
trial. Col. Cook, special Star :cttte coun-
sci, said the evidence was not ready for
the grand jury. Not a single case is vet
complete and it would result in failure
to begin their trial now The Government
did not intend to prosecute, but to clear
itself Of the responsibility, If they were
wrong. The charges extend from Texas
to Oregon, and all over the Western bord-
ers and it might be necessary to call Wit
nesses from far distant sections
Gen. Brady wrote the letter presented by
his counsel, accusing the Government de
tectives with filling the press with false re
ports, knowing that their being govern
mcnt agents shields them from proceed
ings for libel. Col Cook, in reply, re-
terrcd to certain Washington newspapers,
which are reported organs Of the Star
route ring and Of the purchase Of such pa
pcrs by the ring. Brady wanted the privi-
lege Of examining the records Of the POST
office Department, Cook repliedlthat Brady
need not pretend ignorance Of these re-
cords after controlling them three years.
When the matter was before Congress he
showed entire familiarity with them. He
could not have them to make up his dee
fense.

North Carolina Republican Split.

New YORK, June 23.-The 7rjbune's
Washington special says: The condition
Of the Republican party in North Carolina
is scarcely less complicated than that of
the party i'll Virginia. The temperance
movement engendered primarily in the
legislature of the State by the Democrats
at the instance Of ex-senator Merriman,
has already had the effect to split Che Re
publican State committee into two fac
ton<. and is likely to divide the party in
tbe State unless the administration shall
interfere to prevent the extraordinary po-
stion Of some Of its revenue officials, who
as Republican committee men appear to be
organizing whisky party.

Another speculative mania has broken
out this week, chiefly in gold mines. The
cause is the reported discovery Of a rich
vein Of gold in an Indian mine worked by
a Glasgow syndicate. The City Of Glas-
gov Bank he'd a very large number of
shares in this concerl--ille}eed this gold
mine helped to break down that institu-
ton. The shares have advanced this week
from ElO to E65. and new mining COM
panies are started every day. Cornwall
is flooded with new companies working
old tin mines, and India promises to be
the scene Of a new gold fever. In exist
ing mines the rise in shares during the
last few days ranges from y to 200 per
cent. Two new American mining COM
panies ask for million sterling. The
total amount applied for by new companies
this year is $l12, 100000, and most Of it
has been subscribed.
Private advices from St. Petersburg
say the greatest discomfort prevails
among the peasantry, particularly in
the south. The peasants had been
led to believe that Alexander III.
would complete his fathers work by re-
lieving them of the arrearages in which
the imperfect scheme Of emancipation has
involved them, and the announcement
that the relief measure has been postpon-
ed Indefinitely has rendered them furious.
The Russian Executive, permitted the
maddened peasants to rob and murder the
Jews in the hope that their rage would
exhaust itself OIL these victims; but the
cry in the country districts is for more
blood. kilograms report the outbreak Of
agrarian riots in Kharkof and other south
ern districts. The Government buildings
have been fired and arsellals robbed.
Large bodies OF troops are being thrown
into the disturbed region, but the reports
say the peasants are everywhere rising
and that the movement is rapidly. spread
ing through the south.

MITcHELL-In Warren, Sunday,
July II, 1881, at about o'clock
p. H., of consumption, William
Mitchell, aged % years.
The deceased was born in Char
lottetown, Prince Edwards Island,
Dominion Of Canada, in 1853. He
had been a resident Of Warren for
two years previous to his death and
had gained the love and esteem Of
all who knew him. Quiet and un-
assuming, he performed his daily
labors with alacrity until the fell
disease which carried him off had
asserted complete mastery over
his physical powers. Then, and
without complaint, he prepared to
take the journey that ends with the
life on earth and gives to the trav.
eler eternal rest. Fearlessly he
left us, and with a christians joy
set sail over the limitless ocean Of
eternity, whose every wave beat
lands a passenger at the gates Of
the New Jerusalem. While yet in
the full tide Of life and hope the
summons came, but it found a rea,
dy and willing subject in William
Mitchell. He leaves two brothers
who are well known here and who
have the sympathy Of the entire
community in their bereavement.
