LONDON, May 9.-It is rumored
that the Under Secretaryship for Ire
land has been offered to Blake, one of
the special Magistrates appointed by
Forster.
The Times, in a leading article,
says: Even if it be true that the
murder of Cavendish and Burke was
done by American Irish desperadoes,
we must not forget that Parnell has
boosted on consolidating an alliance
between the Irish in America and
those at home. We are unable to
accept the plea that the men who have
pursued the land league course are
Invested of all responsibility for the
crime they now denounce.
Miss Anna Parnell, in her letter to
the Times, says she doubts that the
policy is Cancellation, when families
in Clare, whom Forster turned out,
are living in novels, and six hundred
people in one county alone are liable
to death by cold, it being illegal to
help them. She concludes by saying
that il there are any persons surprised
that the assassin's arm is not idle.
they must not forget that there is such
a thing as human nature among Irish
men.
There is rumor current that the
forthcoming Irish protection bill will
provide that in certain cases murder
trial by jury be suspended and that
the accused be tried before three
judges with the right to appeal.
Gladstone had long conference
with Goschen yesterday, which may
shortly lead to public announcement.
The Queen last evening gave audi
ence to the officer bearing special dis
patches from Spencer, LordLieutenant
Of Ireland.
Spencer is expected to arrive in
London tomorrow, On his return
he will be accompanied by his wife.
The Queen will visit London to-
day and give audience to Gladstone.
Three more arrests have been made
| in Kildare.
The body Of Burke will be buried
t0 day in Glasnavln cemetery, in the
suburbs Of Dublin.
1t is stated that John Holmes, jr.,
Lord of the Treasury, will succeed
the late Lord Cavendish as Secretary
Of the Treasury. Herbert Gladstone
is to succeed Holmes.
G. j. Halyoke received a grant Of
elOO to go to America and report on
co operation.

and his party. From knowledge SUBJ
sequently gained of the possibilities
Of subsistence in that bleak wilder
ness, he may have been led to cherish
some faint trust in the chance of
relief by wandering parties of natives,
but his movements show that he felt
sure that he could then DO nothing to
save his commander. If belong had
been found by the natives, he was at
least beyond the danger Of perishing
from cold and hunger. Ifhe had not
been thus favored, then he was already
beyond human aid. The party had
been two days without food when
Noros and Ninderman left them.
Weeks had passed, and there was no
game or known means of sustenance
in the region where they WERE"

when a scout named Yuma Bill
cried suddenly, Look out, Lieuten-
anti" Lieutenant Mcdonald wheeled
his horse just as volley was poured
into the party by an unseen foe. Sew
eral of the men were shot; but their
othcer, who was more exposed than
any of the others. was not touched.
Yuma Bill was MORALLY wounded. He
was looked upon as the best scout of
the lot, and was sent with Lieutenant
Mcdonald by the special request of
that officer.
AFTER THE FIGHT.
Shortly after the fight Colonel For
sythe was informed by a party of In
dian scouts that the trail of large
body of Indians had been discovered
heading for the south. The Colonel,
although the men and horses were
very much exhausted, determined
upon pursuit, and started at once for
Horseshoe Springs, marching until IL
O'Clock at night, when he arrived at
that point. He went into camp for
four or five hours, leaving again at
daybreak for Stems Pass Station,
where the water cars had been left.
He reached this point at night, after
an absence of forty hours, during
which the animals had travelled sew.
enty eight miles without water. Some
of them gave outand were left behind.
Colonel Forsythe hasleft for the south
on the trail Of the Indians, and
hopes to overtake them before they
reach the border. He has been Joined
since the fight by Captain Gordon,
Sixth Cavalry, with sixty-two men;
Lieutenant Gatewood, with a company
! Of Indian scouts, and Lieutenant Hat
field, with troops E., Fourth Cav
airy.
Among other news from the south
is the statement that no depredations
have been committed in New Mexico.
Company l., Fifteenth Infantry,
under command Of Captain McKibbin,
left Fort Marcy yesterday at 2 pm. for
Lotdsburg. Also three companies of
the Twenty Third Infantry from Fort
Union, under command of Colonel
Brady, of the Twenty-third Infantry.
These troops are to guard the railroad
stations where supplies are stored and
protect the settlements in southwest
New Mexico.
Military dispatches this morning
from the San Carlos Reservation, Ari-
iona, state that two hundred more
warriors have left the Reservation
and bearing southeast, destroying what
little the other band left. They are
evidently trying to join those with
whom Colonel FOrsythe had the fight.
Every effort is being put forth to
bring these raiders to speedy Justice
The Third Cavalry is ordered down
from the north, part of the Ninth
Cavalry (colored) is ordered from
Kansas and the Indian Territory, and
the Fourteenth Regiment of Infantry
from Texas. This looks like business
and we hope to see "Mr, Lo" taught a
lesson he will not soon forget. The
Mexican troops are now acting in con-
cord with the. American forces, with
orders to take no prisoners, and if Col
mel Forsythe fails to Overtake them,
he will run them into the Mexican
net like cOvey Of quail

TIE sentence of the court martial
which tried Fitz John Porter in 1868
was that he "be cashiered and to be
forever disqualified from holding any
Office Of trust or profit under the
Government of the United States"
Acting under advice of the Attorney
General President Arthur has remit
ted that portion of the sentence which
disqualified Porter from holding Office.
General Porter has written letter of
thanks to Mr.. Fred 7. Frelinghuyson,
Secretary of State. Mr.. Bragg, Of
Wisconsin, has introduced a bill for
the relief of General Porter, which
authorizes the President, in order
that justice may be done to said Fitz
Fitz John Porter, to appoint Fitz
John Porter, late Major General of the
United States volunteers, Brevet
Brigadier General and Colonel OF the
army, to the position Of Colonel in the
army of the United States and to the
same grade and rank held by him at
the time Of his dismissal from the
army by the sentence Of the court
martial, and in his discretion to place
him on the retired list of the army as
Of that grade" Thus long delayed
justice will be done to a gallant officer
and gentleman who was made the
victim of conspiracy aud the mad pas
sions and jealousieS of the war. Had
he not lived and persistently de-
manded an investigation and justice, a
stain would have forever rested on his
name and the shadow Of it would
have descended to his poSterity. As
it is, he is fully indicated, regardless
of what Congress may do.

The blood cannot properly perform
its functions when loaded with impur-
rites. because it is thick and sluggish
and every person needs at times
something to cleanse and quicken the
vital current. DIR j q Ayers Com
pound Extract of Sarsaparilla meets
this want perfectly, and his discovery
of this compound ranks as imp, rtant
in preserving the blood in healthy
condition as does that of VIM Harvey
in demonstrating its circulatory action
Nothing else so vitahzes. purifies and
enriches the blood as Ayers Sarsapa-
rilla. Its a perfect blood and nerve
food. 1t never disturbs the stomach
but greatly assists and promotes the
digestion and assimilation Of all nu-
trments, and increases their power
to sustain and nourish the body. In
renovating the blood it cleans and
quickens the intllect, and thus gives
to both mind and body the power of
long sustained, arduous and success
full effort.-Corning, N. Y, Journal.

THE OVERFLOW.

The recent heavy and prolonged
rains, especially those of last week,
forced our streams far out of their
usual limits. The Hatchie rose high
er by several feet than has ever been
known, The water reached within
a few inches of the new iron bridge
over the river near Bolivar, partially
destroyed the long wooden bridge
leading thereto and carried away all
the levee bridges, besides seriously
washing the earth work. The rail-
road track in the bottom leading to
Forts crossing was torn up about
three hundred yards and travel for
several days has been impeded All
the approaches to Bolivar on the
North and East are more or less rem
dered useless by this unprecedented
rainfall. In fact, we learn that
quite all the creek bridges in the
county are down, to the great incon-
venience of the people. Planting
and all kinds of farm work are very
backward and must remain so for
days to come. The destruction of
bridges and Ievee il. the county will
reach near eight thousand dollars in
value.

Mr.. EDIToR:-I will give an
account of an immense bed of chalk
! On the land of Mr.. Drake in this
county in district no 4. 1t is several
feet in depth and and hundred yards
long, and it extends to an unknown
distance into the banks on each side
Of the creek. The bed is above the
spring known as the old school house
spring. a few Of the readers Of your
paper, who are now gray haired drank
water from the spring 40 years ago
when they attended church at the
old log house known as Cawley's
Church. If that chalk is what is
called Potter's clay, perhaps it will be
utilized some time in the future.
There are several tons Of it of various
colors, some Of it is variegated. If it
Is suitable for making earthenware
perhaps some enterprising man will
start 4 pottery there and make up
the clay or chalk, before many years
clapse. Mr.. Hazlewood, an enter
prising man at Cedar Chapel, has re-
Gently erected a steam mill for grind
ing corn. 1t has been in operation 2
or 3 weeks. Another enterprising
man from Fayette Corner by the name
ofPhillips IS making rapid preparations
toward putting up steam grist mill
for corn and wheat. A good sign for
the future prosperity Of this country.
The farmers will raise wheat and will
support the mill, and will thereby
save thousands of dollars that would
otherwise go up North for flour. -
Respectfully,
