A DISPATCH from Mobile gives particulars Of
the discovery of diabolical plot among negroes
to murder the entire white population of Choc-
taw county. Jack Turner and six other ring
leaders have been arrested. The plot has besn
in existence since 1873, and the conspiratws
number 400, and had secured arms and ammu-
nitiou. Sunday night, the 18th of Septemi ~,
had been appointed as the date for the consum-
nation of the plot. A paper read showed that
this date was selected because then the white
people would be at camp-meeting unarmed. A
mass meeting called brought together about 7D0
men, among whom were about $50 negroes, who,
after hearing the papers read, by an almost
unanimous vote, decided that Jack Turner was
a dangerous character, and that the public &C.
manded his immediate death. He was accord
ingly hanged at 1:15 p. m. in the presence of the
assembiage. The crowd dispersed, and all signs
of 4 disturbance ceased. The other prisoners
are still in Jail to await further developments

THE $4,000 to be paid to Garfeld's physi-
clans won't hold out Dr. Bliss wants $25,G0O
Drs Hamilton and Agnew $4,000 each, and
DIR. Reyburn $1O,8O0. DR.. Reyburn charges
500 for each day he was in attendance, and
$100 additional for each Of the alternate nights
that he was on duty. DR.. Susan Edison, who
was at the bedside of the President almost all
the time, day as well as night, by this calcu-
lation, will be left without dollar for her
services, as will also DR.. Boynton. Of course
the commission having the settlement of the
bills can reduce them to suit themselves. The
commission has, however, decided that Drs
Boynton and Edison being technically nurses
they cannot receive anything under the ap-
preparation. They will therefore have to
appeal to Congress for such pay as may be
given them.

lHE 1OliOWlnS ulSpaICn from new 1OTh
conveys some idea of the desperation and
daring of roughs in that city Half dozen
young men, all being more or less drunk,
entered beer saloon this forenoon and de
manded drinks. The saloon-keeper, recog
nizing them as lawless ruffians refused to
give them any. The leader of the gang
promptly whipped out revolver and shot
him down. The ball struck Stein in the
mouth, knocked out his teeth and lodged in
the back of the neck. The cry of murder
was raised as the rOughs fed. The leader,
still fourishing the pistol, sprang upon the
front platform of a car as it was being driven
up town, showed his pistol in the face of the
astonished driver, and, seizing the reins, or
dered him to stand back. The driver was
taken completely by surprise and cOwed into
submission. Whipping up the horses, the
rullian ran them at a dead gallOp to the corner
of Houston street, the while covering the pas
sengers in the car with his revolver and
threatening to shoot the first one who stirred.
At Houston street he sprang from the platform,
and boarding ferry boat that was just going
out, he quilted the city for Brooklyn. Several
of the gang were subsequently captured.

SOME weeks since Representative Lindsey,
of the third congressional district of Maine
had his daughter appointed to place in the
Post Office Department. and it is alleged that he
procured the removal of Miss E. Stabler to
make the place for his daughter. The associa-
tiOn organized in Washington for the protec-
ton of women in the Departments intend,
upon the return Of the President, to ask him
to restore Miss Stabler, who, they say, is a
daughter of a soldier and the sole support Of
the children of soldier who was killed in
battle. They make the additional point that
Mr.. Lindsey is a Congressman, is rich, and
never was soldier The ladies of the associa-
tion say they will have the backing of the
Grand Army of the Republic in their effort
