Richmond, Va, Feb. 21.-The gov
ernor has vetoed the anti-dueling bill.
In Hanover the county counsel opposed
the examination by the grand jury of
witness on the ground that their evil
dence while it may serve to fasten the
guilt on the principals in a duel would
tend to criminate themselves as parti-
cipants. The court decided the point
as well taxed and discharged the wit
nesses. AS a result no presentments
could be made by the grand jury.
In the senate a president pro TEN ex-
planned that he was wrong in ruling
that the debate on the motion to lay on

Riddleberger's motion to lay on the
table a joint order having for its object
the election of certain state officers was
adopted.

New York, Feb. p. The Irish
Worlds London cable says Michael
Davitt's election is a ~Yindication of his
principles and the Irish people to the
coercion policy of the Gladstone gov
eminent. -
Patrick Eagan, treasurer Of the land
leage, was run as a dummy candi-
daSe, to make it impossible for the will
of the people to be annulled by any
legal te~chnicalities reserved by the gov
eminent. The result is specially sig
nificant as a radiation of the no rent
manifesto by the people of Meath, in
Guiding Bishop Nulty and his Catholic
clergy, who strongly supported the can
didacy of Davitt and Eagan.
The intention of the government to
withdraw the policy Of protection from
the emergency men who occupy farms
from which the people have been evict-
ed, fills the laborers with CONSERVATION
and alarm. They declare that it is i'm
possible to hold on to the farms if this
is done. Foster explained to the house
committee that it was necessary to
withdraw the police from this protec-
ton of duty in order to patrol the coun-
try.

the members of the Egyptian parlia-
ment. Prime Minister Araby Bey and
the speaker of parliament, pronounced
eloquent eulogies of Washington, say
ing that his work begun in America

two hundred guests present, including
Phelps, minister at Vienna, Senator
Emery, and the officers of Lancaster
and Quinnebang, now at Alexandria.
Berlin, Feb. 22.-The American resi-

There were $50 persons present, in

United States consul general, toasted
President Arthur.
Berlin, Feb. 22.-Great surprise is
expressed at Berlin at the non-apPoint-

TO BE ~REINSTATED.
The Probable Termination of the
Fitz John Porter Case.
He Will Probably be Reappointed to
the Infantry.

New York, Wednesday, Feb. o.
The Graphic's Washington special
says: Gen. Fitz John Porter's friends
claim new developments that will help
his case.
They will produce a telegraph opera
tor from Pope's headquarters, during
the Rapidan campaign, and they claim
he can show that it was impossible for
Porter to have obeyed the orders. sent
him, even if delivered. In fact they
time it was testified, but instead of
half past five O'Clock it must have been
after dark.
They profess to be able to show, by
the knowledge the operators had by
communicating with one another, over
the wires, that for two days, while Pope
thought he had the enemy IN his front,
they were massing on his rear, and
that he was outgeneraled and a scape-
goat had to be found, and this was
Porter's ill-fortune.
1t is reported also that General Rug
| giles, now on Sherman's staff. will tell
what he knows and that he will say
that Pope was in the wrong in the
matter, and that Pope was given orders
impossible of execution.
1t is said that Grants last expression
Of opinion had the effect of opening the
mouths of the general officers, who be-
fore regarded it discreet to preserve
silence.
The President will be urged to take
action on the verdict of the Board of
Review which set aside the finding of
the first court martial.
Washington, Feb. 22.-The president
and cabinet have, so it is said, semi
officially announced, decided in favor
of restoring Fitz John Porter to the
army. The only question connected
with the case that is undecided is as to
Porter's back pay. When cashiered he
held the rank of colonel in the regular
army, and as major general of volun-
teers. The question is now whether
his back pay as major general would
accrue to him up to reinstatement, or
whether it would terminate in 1866,
when the other major generals were
mustered out of service. The question
las been referred to the attorney gene
raj. The president will nominate
Porter as colonel of infantry, to fill the
first vacancy, and Porter will probably
ask to be retired.

Cleveland, Feb. GA committee
representing the e~x-confederate soldiers
of Cincinnati, visited Mrs. Garfield at
Mentor to-day and presented her with a
beautiful memorial tribute to James A.
Garfield, in the shape of sympathetic
and eulogistic resolutions.
Mrs. Garfield with great effort sup
pressed her emotion, while the old
mother of the late president wept vio-
lently. Both were clad in the deepest
mourning. The late presidents widow,
her voice trembling with emotion, re-
piled as follows:
Gentlemen, L am very grateful to you
and to those from whom this beautiful
gift comes, both for the sake and senti-
ment you express.
The two Mesdames Garfield then ex-
amined the memorial gift, and expressed
their admiration Of the frame to Mr..
Knepp, its maker, who said:
My heart went out in sympathy for
the president, and L volunteered to
make that frame, and l made it, so that
it may remain as a standing testimony
of southern sentiment.
Gen. Withers added, and moreover,
we want to show these northern politi-
clans that we ex-confederates are not as
black as they try to make us out to be.
The younger Mrs. Garfield responded:
1t has always been the generals great

south, his earnest desire was to see a
united country, and had he lived
Here her grief overcame her, and the
sentence was unfinished. After a brief
silence courtesies were exchanged and
the visitors withdrew.

Chicago, Feb. pa curiosity in the
shape of a letter from Lieut.. Doner-
hover was received last Tuesday by his
brother, Mr.. Wash. Donerhower. 1t is
probably the first letter ever received
from the mouth of the Lena. 1t was
on the road just four months to a day.
The envelope is covered with various
Russian pOstmarks, and on the back is
a huge wax seal, evidently of some
Siberian office. The letter is as fol-
lows:

Washington, Feb. 22.-The import
ant mining decision rendered by Justice
Miller in the circuit court for Colorado,
which was recently referred to in these
dispatches as having nearly reached the
point of final review by the United
States supreme court, is to the effect
that no mineral land patent can legally
be issued for more than one hundred
and sixty acres, and that if a number
of original locations have been CONSOLE
dated into one claim, each of the loca-
tions must be treated as q distict claim
and advertised and proved up with the
proof of separate work upon it.
This decision, if sustained by the
supreme court, would, it is said, destroy
two-thirds of the patents heretofore
issued for mining claims, and make the
procuring of patents for most of the old
claims impossible, because of the i'm
practicability of making proof of the
old locations, and because in most in
stances separate work has not been done
on the old locations, which have been
consolidated into larger claims. Thus
a shaft sunk on a consolidated claim
has been held to be work in every part
of it, but the circuit court overthrows
that principle.
The appealed cast has been twice
argued in the supreme court, and its
Forthcoming decision is awaited with
great interest.

New York, Feb. 22.-The IIerald's
st. Petersburg says: In noticing the
disavowal of Gen. SkobeloiT, which APP
pear in the messages, officially, l should
observe that the Russian statesman
and the emperor himself have been less
astonished than annoyed by his sensa-
tional speeches at st. Petersburg and
Paris.
Gen. Skobeloff is only IS years OF age
and is an atheist for notoriety, and no
one has ever attached the slightest
political weight to him. When he has
imbibed a little more champagne than
is good for him he is apt to make fool
ish speeches.

SWEEPING SURGES.
tiers of Winter
And Liberate Vast Volumes Of Water
in Destructive Floods.


The floods.
Cincinnati, Feb. 22.-The river has
fallen nearly two feet from the highest
mark and is still falling rapidly. The
weather is clear and cold. Advices
from up the river show that the river is
still rising, and it may rise again here,
but the cold weather gives promise that
the worst is over. There is no change
in the general situation.
Memphis, Feb. 22.-The officers Of
this city and Greenville confirm the re-
port published of the sad condition Of
affairs now existing throughout the
Mississippi valley. Thousands of men
are on guard along the levees between
here and Vicksburg, using every posi-
BILE NEAR to strengthen their power of
resistance and elevated crests to prevent
the water from inundating the whole
country.
Greenyille has bought up several
thousand empty sacks to be used by fill
ing with earth, to aid in strengthening
the embankment.
The whole shore line between Mem
phis and Vicksburg, on the Mississippi
side, and the whole of the eastern shore
of Arkansas are either under water or
threatened with inundation. The in
habitants of this vast tract of country
are in great distress, and many have
been forced from their houses, who are
snbsisting as best they may on RATS,
and some on knobs or parts of the old
levees.
The destruction of live stock is be-
yond calculation. The waste of prop
trty by this great submersion outside of
the limits, at present is beyond compu-
tation.
The navigation of the river itself is
regarded by steamboat men as very
dangerous at its present stage, on &C.
count of the great expanse of water in
many localities and the billowy charac-
ter of the waves when the surface is
swept by heavy gusts of winds, also be-.
IL of the great difficulty of getting
to safe ports.
The government lights along the riv-
er are maintained with admirable reg
ularity. These lights prove of meal
culable benefit to the steamboatmen
now, since all the bank landmarks have
disappeared.
Arkansas City is completely sub
merged, not a house in the city being
free from the presence of the muddy
floods. The water there is represented
as being eight inches higher than the
flood of 1876. The houses were built
SO as to be above the high water level of
that year, but in all of them there is
from seven to eight inches of water.
Between Cairo and Memphis the fol-
lowing points Of land only are visible
above the surging flood: The bluffs at
Columbus hills, bank of Hickman, land
on the Tennessee side opposite Island
No. 10, New Madrid, Point Pleasant,
Tiptonville, Fulton Bluffs, Randolph,
Richardson's, Islands 80 and SO, and
Deans Island above the head of the
Centennial cut off, forty miles above
Memphis.
The officers of the steamer Dean
Adams arrived tonight and report a
break in the levee at Mound Place,
Boliver county, No., which inundated
a large area of country and will destroy
many cattle and other stock.
Helena, Ark, Feb. 22.-The river is
declining slowly declining at this point
