THE SPRAGUE ESTATE.
The Spragues Make a Proposition tt
Purchase TT.

The Spra CUES Make a Proposition to
Purchase It..
New YORK, July 27.-Regarding the rumor
that syndicate has been formed for purchas-
ing the Sprague estate and settling with the
creditor, Gen. Prior, one of the lawyers of the
Sprague estate, said no settlement has yet
been definitely arranged. A proposition is
now pending between the creditors and the
Spragues which will probably result in the
purchase by William, Amasa, Mary and Fanny
Sprague of the property. If settlement can
be effected all litigation will cease at once.
There has never been syndicate in the mat
ter. Gen. Butler never proposed to purchase
the property nor will he, in the event of its
purchase, have any interest whatever. The
arrangement contemplated is the purchase of
the property by the Spragues, who will raise
to be paid is something like $3,5OO,OO0 or
$4,G00,O0O, and this will give the creditors 45

The Rev. John Jasper's Flock Greatly
Excited.

Excited.
RICHMOND Va, July PA great stir has
been caused among the negroes here in conse-
quence of the mysterious tolling of the bell in
the Rev. John Jaspers church, For several
nights past as the town clocks ring at the mid
night hour the bell in the belfry Of Mount
Zion colored Baptist church, in the western
part of the city, chimes in and rings out the
hour distinctly. The pastor of this church is
the Rev. John Jasper, colored, whose peculiar
views concerning the solar system have given
him a national notoriety. The building is sit
uated in what is known as jackson Ward, the
denizens of which are principally colored peo-
pie. These people have been greatly excited
by the mysterious bell ringing. 1t is the work,
some of the more snperstitious believe, Of
ghostly visitors. Watch has been kept on the
church for the past few nights, but despite this
precauton the singular tolling of the bell at
midnight has continued once or twice. Some
of the more supplemented express the belief
that these mysterious manifestations are omi-
nous, and forebode the close of the life of their
pastor, John Jasper, who has been ill for sew
eral weeks but who has improved during the
past few days. The neighborhood in which
Jasper's church is situated is noted for mys-
teries. A few years ago the house of a widow
in that vicinity was stoned for several days and
nights by some unseen hands. Despite every
effort of the police the offenders could not be
detected.

Senator Frye on Virginia Politics.
WASHINGTON, July 27.-The following letter
from Senator Frye is published here to-day:
LEWISTON, Me-, July 26, 1881.
Hon. John AnebIer Snaitb, Richmond, Va.:
My Dear Sir-Your communication received.
In reply to your inquiry as to my opinion of
the Malone movement in Virginia, answer
briefly. First, as to the State debt, repudiate
all reputation, national, State, county and
city, but have no confidence in the financial
integrity of the party known in Virginia as
the Bourbon; and as far as that question is
concerned would sooner trust the Readjusters.
Second-As every other question affecting the
prosperity of the State, the good of the people,
the educational interests and the rights Of
citizens, from my present information, 1
should certainly join issue with she Bourbon
party, and in order to achieve any success
should not hesitate to unite with the Read
iusters. Respectfully,
WIN. P. FRYE.
