congressianaG star Route IN
vestigatioR.

Washington, 13.-DieksoD, foreman
of the Star Route jury. threaters TO pro-
cure congressional investigation into
the question Of jury fixing. The fact that
he has delayed so long in swearing out
warrants for the arret of those he
charges with approaching him corFuptly
in behalf of government has about des-
troyed all Iaith in lis stories. He has
had it in his power any day for sometime
past 10 secure the arrest of q. lesst one of
those he makes public charges against
Now the govern menL inquiry is in Vigo-
rGQs progress. it is understood he contem-
plates cau3ing the arrests ss are offset his
favor. There are some other features of
q congressional inqUjFy which sre talked
Of here in connection with the star route
matters, and these involve an attempt TO
discover the reasons why, after the col
lection Of an immense mass Of evidence
against several extensive companies,
notably that o. Monroe Salisbury, the
cases were not presented to the grand
jury. Il Is we'll known here that the
star route frauds have only been very
imperfsctly developed il some cases
where government has abundant eEi-
Gence and that in certain directions
they hsve not been followed st all.
The holding back disappeared in
part towards the close OF the late
trial, but still there are many
reasons for believing congressional in
quivy covering the whole ground Of the
star route proceedings would be public
benefit. Brewster Cameron says he has
remained silent under the caa,ges of
Dickson by advice of his superiors in the
department; that he could better remain
few days under an unjust imputation
than interfere with the investigation OF
the whole mater by premature publtca-
tons. He had accordingly TO defer the
publication o: his statement until those in
charge of the case are res1y. The mstter
was being pushed, be underssl cd, and
before long the bottom facts OF the affair
! would be reached,
Merriek says the att0rney-genersl is
investigating the conduct of Brewster
Cameron in the alleged attempt TO infu-
ence thestar route jury. Such an inves-
tigRtion, he thinks, is demanded to dis
pose of any imputstion that might afect
the character Of officers Of his depart
ment. Foreman Dickson's 0rigina
statement has been followed By contra
dictions ard denials, but if any corrup
act should be finally proven again.

sudden charge and attack that com

became demoralized and fled for

tack Arab was asleep in his tent.
TIC charge was made at Tel ell
Kebir. In their flight the Egypt
ians threw away their arms and &C
coutrcments. Gen. Wolseley's army

army until they marched on Cairo.
Al that place Arab made an un-
conditional surrender. He is now a
prisoner and will be tried as soon as

A Brutal Murder of q Farmer Near
Winona.

WINoNA, Sept. S.-The most foul
and brutal murder that has ever
been recorded in the history of any
country was perpetrated just beyond
the limits Of our little city yester-
day. Mr.. Jesse E Pace, a most
highly connected and respectable
citizen, was robbed, a short time
since, of of about $4,000. Suspicion
rested upon a young lawyer, f. f..
Curtis, who was thea located in
Winona for the practice of his pro
fession, and his brothers.
No arrest, however, was made, the
presumption being that Pace was
waiting for circuit court to convene,
when he would present the facts to
the grand jury. The time having
very nearly approached for the cir
cult court to convene, Curtis and
one of his brothers, and possibly
others, went into to the field of Pace
I yesterday where he was at work
picking peas with his little son and
negro man, and secreted themselv-
es near the house where Pace had
to go deposit the peas. Between
shutdown and dark Pace went to
enter the house when the aforesaid
parties stepped from their hiding
place and commenced firing upon
him. This they kept up until they
had pierced the body antilead with
twenty-two shots. They then car
ried their victim and threF his body
in ditch over fifty yarda1fE -
They then repaired to friend
house and wrote q letter to the sher !
if, in which they confess their guilt
and state that they had sMofn to
give the body of the dog tosthe buzz
yards, and that they have some 9TH
er accounts to settle, after which
they will then surrender thelnselSes

What the War Cost.

What Arabi's rebellion has al
ready cost Egypt may be judged
from Alexandria dispatches to the
Manchester Examiner. Her cotton
crop averages two hundred millions
OF pounds annually, and that is al
together lost for this year. Her
expectation of wheat, ought to be
about twenty five millions Of pounds,
but there will not be enough gar.
uercd in this season for the support
of the native population. England
has recently been paying her ten
millions of dollars annually for cot
ton seed that is compressed into oil
cake, and now that item of revenue
is sacrificed. The London Shipping
and Merchant Gazette declares that
it is almost impossible to compute
the monetary disaster to Egypt. The
efficiency in cotton and wheat de-
liveries to England must, however
be supplied by American exporta-
ton.

MERCHANTS AND FARMERS.
Thousands Of Dollars Saved to the
SOUTH. A@

Thomas j. Erwin, awell known citizen of
Jefferson county, Miss, has for the last ten
years been experimenting in the cultivation
OF Irish potatoes, and claims to have learn
ed the secret of raising fall potatoes more
successfully than any other man in the
South. In the fall of 1880 he raised upwards
of three hundred bushels on his oat patch,
after cutting oats; he also raised fine crop
in the fall Of 1881, as dry as the fall was.
Some Of the finest potatoes that were ever
raised he carried to the Brookhaven market
and sold for S. per barrel In case this

lowing persons, who bought Of him. Prof.

| have planted the same potato for ten
years, raise two crops year, and find them
improving all the time. The South can
beat the world raising Irish potatoes. All

plant fall crop to insure their coming p,
and how TO save them.
Now is the time for the overfowed lands
on the Mississippi river. They can plant
fall crops and make from two to three hun
bred bushels per acre This is no Yankee
trick. Every farmer ought to raise at least
enough Irish potatoes for home use, and
quit being slaves for the North.
l will, for one dollar, give a receipt of my
ten years experience in raising Irish pota-
toes, both spring and fall crops. Those
who buy my receipt, if they go by directions,
will never fail to make large crops, and It
will be the means OF saving the South
thousands of dollars. #. J. ERWIN,

Was Arab q Rebel.

The Natchez Democrat asks the
question twas Arab Pasha rebel
against his own government, or was
he a patriot fighting the battles of
his country against an invader?
The English invasion of Egypt was
not invited by the sovereign of the
country. and was made upon the
forces Of Arab in the same manner
as if he had been an independent
prince. No declaration of war was
ever formally made, and without the
consent of the khedive the largest
commercial city in Egypt was bonn :
barded and burned. Arab is a
prisoner Of war to the British, and
by the law of nations should be
treated as such by them. If he was
rebel it was to the Egyptian gov
eminent, and not to the English,
Surrendering as he has done to Gen i.
Wolseley, he is entitled to his pro-
lection at least until he is demanded
by his lawful sovereign.
What may be his fate when he
comes into the hands of the semi
civilized khedive, it is not easy to
foretell. If the khedive were left to
his own impulses, we believe he
would restore him to his former rank,
and endeaver to attach him to him
self as an ally to aid him against his
English friends. But as the khe-
dive is now thoroughly under the
centrol Of England, completely in
her power, il is more than probable
