Sam Brannans Failure.

A dispatch from Guaymas, a
few days ago, contained the fol-
lowing reference to Sam Brannans
new venture: "Sam Brannan is
here and was paid $4,000 at the
Mexican Custom house. He re-
turns to San Francisco by the
Newben, the federal Judge having
granted him permission to have
the land surveyed. Owing to the
rebellion among the Indians, Bran
nan says the land now to be allot-
ted to him is not the same which
he originally had been promised"
4 later dispatch from the same
city has this reference to him:
"The federal Judge here has re-
fused permission to Sam Brannan
10 have his lands surveyed, and
his engineers have gone TO Mexico.
Brannam has appealed to the fed
eral government, and will soon re-
turn to San Francisco TO await
developments" Mr.. Brannans
trouble in obtaining the desired
permission has resulted from his
failure to act promptly. The grant
is said in Sonora to have been
made 10y c. Manuel Castro, with
out adequate authority, and TO be
consequently void. Conceding,
however, that the grant was regu-
larly made, it is claimed that
Brannan has failed to comply with
the conditions imposed upon him,
and that he has therefore forfeited
all title to the land, and it has
lapsed to the Mexican govern
ment.

Condition Of the President.
Another operation was perform

Another operation was perform
ed on the President by DIR. Agnew
Tuesday morning, and a piece of
the fractured eleventh rib, and
one or two small pieces of splin-
tered bone cut away, the opera
tions being made through the in
cision cut Saturday. Unfavorable
symptoms, Monday night and
Tuesday morning, are said to be
due to irritation by particles of
bone in the wound. Ex-Surgeon
General Hamilton told a Herald
reporter Monday night that GER
tainly the President has not had
the best talent and treatment
available. Bliss is probably a very
fair surgeon, but Barnes has not
seen a shotgun wound since the
Mexican war, and as to Wood
ward, he has probably never seen
one in his life. Wales was the
best man they had, and he was
dismissed by Bliss. The surgeons
have never made search for the
bullet, which was the very first
thing they ought to have done,
and they have never made the
slightest endeavor to extract the
bullet. They have evidently been
afraid to treat the President as
they would have treated an ordi-
nary man, and that is all wrong,
DIR. Agnew SAYS that the Presi-
dent is better than when he saw
him on Sunday. There appears
to be no real foundation for the
sudden alarm all over the country

The Internal Machines.

The dynamite internal machines
were shipped from Boston in a Gu
nard steamer. Speaking of this in
the house of commons on Monday,
Sir William Harceurt stated that
each machine contained eleven car
tridges, each of which was charged
with nitro-glycerine and compound
similar to gun cotton. One of the
supposed cement barrels had in all
fourteen pounds of this dangerous
explosive material in it, and its i'm
possible to estimate the fatal effect
Of even an accidental conclusion
upon such a mass. The govern
ment, he says, is employing every
recourse to discover the Liverpool
consignes, and the Boston consign-
ors of these machines. For some
time past he said, open threats have
appeared in fenian journals of the
United States, that such outrages
would be perpetrated, and funds
solicited for such purpose. He be-
lieves that the principal origin of
these attempts at assassination was
in the freedom of the press. 1t is
disagreeable fact, but we are
sometimes almost forced to agree
with Sir William, that the liberty
of the press is a bit too broad in
very many instances.

A correspondent of a Chicago
paper thinks that hanging is too
good for Guitesu, and imprison-
ment for life is too commonplace,
and none of the usual penalties
will fit the case. So he wants him
sent up in a balloon, without
valve or ballast, and left to take
his chances in the mysterious
abyss of space, with Providence
his guide. As the crime is abnor-
NAL he thinks the penalty should
be abnormal, and a terror to fu-
ture sensational criminals. This
shows that Guiteau, if a lunatic,
is not the only one in the country.

The growth of Dakota since the
discovery of gold in the Black
hills, has been marvellous. There
is talk about dividing the territory
into three states, one of which
shall be mining and grazing, and
the other two agricultural. The
Northern Pacific railroad is now
completed across the territory.
In the southern portion of the ter
ritory two railroads have reached
the Missouri river in their western
progress, and are making for the
Black-hills. The eastern section
is traversed by rail from the Ne
brasl1a line almost to the Manitoba
frontier, and many local roads are
finished or in process Of building.

down the old freight depot laid aside
their tools Monday afternoon and
went home to stay until the weather
moderates. No new buildings have

WASHINGTON LETTER.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., July 10, 1881.
Yesterday and Monday were al
most rs dismal in Washington as the
corresponding days of the previous
week. In some way an impression
had gotten abroad that the President
was rapidly growing weaker and that
the case had got beyond tho control
Of the physicians. 1t was known
that on Monday there WIS an extra
ordinary and wholly unexpected rise
in the temperature of the patients
body, and the official bulletin placed
it close to the figures ut which death
Is ineyitaS,o. Tuesday morning 3
bulletin reported a reduction, but nm
official statements direct from the
White House said the President was
much weaker than at any previous
time, and was himself losing hope.
This mornings report was more
encouraging, but public belief in the
Presidents recovery, so strong here
in the latter payt of the week, has not
been restored fully.
The artificial cooling of the Presi-
dents room is under most complete
control. The temperature in the
room can be kept atany desiredPoint
and the air is dryer even than that IN
rooms of the house in which the ap-
paratus is not used. The successful
man in the case is n New Yorker. tenn
porarily living in Baltimore. and the
pateutee of nearly two hundred in
yentiUns.
Vice President Arthur left town
this morning. He will remain in
New York for the present, however,
so as be within carly call if alarming
SYMPTOMS should be developed IN

the concurrence Of the Cabinet as he
came at its rcqucst. He did not see
