al Brady to prominent persons. It IS true that an indictment has been recently found in 8 case which, if honestly prosecuted, will de- velop a"portion 1.-the above facts. But the grand jury was adjourned before it had GOV cred the whole ground. It did not even pro- gross so as to find important indictments which the evidence taken justiies, if ln fact It renders them necessary under any theory that the prosecution is being earnestly con ducted This branch of the is rapidly drifting into serious shape for the admins tratton. The belief of those who have watched the matter very closely from the first is that the President and Attorney Gen. eral Brewster have been in earnest in direct ing that the prosecutions should be vigorous, and carried forward without regard to those who might be found implicated; but in spite of this there are good grounds for the belief that this purpose is being defeated without their knowledge.
 A new commission of thirty eight mem- bsrs has been appointed by the French Pres1- dent to consider the sxpediency of a canal from Bordeaux to Narbonne, to unite the Atlantic and the Mediterranean. The pro iect has been estimated to cost $11O, 900, OOO. The canal in that estimate was to be two hun dred and fifty miles long, with minimum depth of twenty seven feet of water. An ad- ditional sum would be needed for fortifica- tions at each end. A technical commission investigated the subject, and reported that the canal would cost twice much as the sum mentioned, while the Notifications would involve further expenditure of $45,o00,- 900. The minority of that original commits sion declared the proposed work impossible, but the majority were of the opinion that the canal could be made. The commission now appointed is composed of Senators, deputies aad officials belonging to the principal de- partments of state.

The Washington correspondent of the Bos- ton Adoerttse9, who is reliable and we'll in- formed, says that some very suspicious facts have recently come into the possession of persons who are observing the management of the Star route cases by the prosecution
 He says: The facts seem to fully justify re- cent assertions that the cases against General Brady and others where the evidence was strong were put aside, and the pending case, which is much weaker, was selected instead. This feature of the prosecution, or the lack of prosecution, will inevitably become promi. ncslt at no distant day. It is now known that some of those directing the prosecutions have long had in their poss ession and accessible witnesses to show attempts to corrupt ,n- gress in connection with the passage of the deficiency appropriation for the Star route service in 1880, the levying of corruption fund from contractors and the payment Of money by contractors by direction of Gener-

Commodore Walters.

Mr.. Walters, the gentleman who eN-
poets to Put i steamer on the upper Mis-
souri, river, build Il railroad around the
falls and all Of that-in his mind-Was
in Benton Thursday, havinos made the
trip down the Missouri to this point
from Three Forks, a distancenf probably
$50 miles. After having made the trip,
even in Il canoe, as far as the falls he is
not 80 sanguine about the upper river
being naviyable by steamers, and it is
probable that he will not put on his boat
right away, not this season at least. Mr..
Walters, however, is a pleasant gentle
man, and has other extensive interests i'll
the territory, which we have lac doubt
will render him much better returns
than would the project Of running a
stcamer.o OIL the upper river. Of couIseit
would be Il nice thing to have q railroad
from Benton to the falls (as suggestedby

great Walters line OF boats OH the upper
river, but, as 4 gentleman asked to-day,
what the deuce would the railroad do
during the eight months Of the year that
the boats cannot run. This is Il nun

The Effect OF Evangelist Barnes Labors IN

About six weeks since Barnes, the
evangelist. declared his intention CT
making Il grand assault upon the state
capital OF Kentucky and capturing 1or
the army Of the Lord the members ofthe
state government. He has only been i'll
Frankfort about two weeks, and lis Sue
cess is wonderful. Fully one thousand
converts have been made by his power
full and eloquent appeals. While the
governor of Kentucky is known as 4 big
hearted and kindly man, yet he has
ALWAYS been considered worldly person,
so wien it was announced yesterday
that lie had surrendered to Brother
Barnes there was much surprise among
his club friends in this city, and through
out the Rurbon districts. 1t appears that
after an eloquent sermon, preached from
the twenty-second chapter Of the First
Chronicles concerning the building Of
Solomon's temple, Mr.. Barnes invited
all who wished to confess Christ to come
to the front. A few MINUTES after,
among the throng could be seen thcgray-
haired head of the governorof Kentucky
moving towardth evangelist, Whostood
with outstretched hands to receive the
penitents. Grasping the hand of Brother
Barnes. Gov. Blackburn, with his whole
frame quiyering with emotion, took his
seat OH the front row Of chairs set apart
for the penitents, and there made his
first public confession Of hisSaviour. 1t
is well known that the Governor has
always been q believer in Christianity,
but until last night, though he has
listened to some OF the ablest ministers
i'll The United States, he G united
with any church, or eve cared to make
Il public declaration OF his faith. Mrs.
Green Clay Smith, wife Of the Rev.
Green Clay Smi il, i Baptist minister Of

sion. Coy. Blackburn will be confirmed
in Christ church, Louisville, Sunday

and Assistant Secretary OF State Harris

A Business-Like Answer to Prayer.

The latest case Of literal answer to
prayer-and Il very businessJike answer
at that-comes from Northern Montana.
The facts Were related to us by a gentle
man Whoi came up from Benton last
week, and are as follows: "a widow
who has since been brought to very re-
duced circumstances by reason Of illness
among her children, sick at heart and
full of sorrow, turned to her Maker for
comfort. She prayed that the friend of
the widow and the fatherless would help
her and her children in their dire eN-
tremity. The supply Of provisions was
Very low, the family Wasliving on starv-
alton diet, and they had no ncal. neigh
bors to apply to for help. While she.
prayed, 4 terrible crash was heard in the
yard. On opening the door it was found
that an enormous meteoric stone had
fallen from the SKY, narrowly missing
her loWly cabin. Having heard that
these stones were highly priced BY as
Economical societies, correspondence was
opened with parties in the east, and at
latest advices it seemed quite probable
that the poor widow would dispose of the
materialized thunderbolt FOR $500. This
beats mamma all hollow. Verify, God
moves in q mysterious way Indie
