and extended their exploration, when
they discovered in the cave an underground
lake of very large proportions, the depth
ranging from twenty-five to fifty feet. The
water is clear as a crystal and cool. Many

another chamber, which was thickly hung
with beautiful stalactites. The parties are

WASHINGTON, March 26. Hayden s. Big
ham arrived in this city from the bedside of
his brother, at Alfordsville, late last night,
and brought the latest news that has been re-
ceived from his wounded brother. DR.. Big
hams condition is unchanged from what it
was on Saturday, except that his pulse had
risen at 6 last night to 123.
Gold, the murderer, was released on two
bonds last Saturday, one of $1,000 for man
slaughter, and one of 81, 500 on a
charge of assault and battery with
intent to murder. A constable has
gone to-day, to re-arrest him on a warrant is
sued charging him with murder in the sec
ond degree. A witness has been found who
claims to have heard Gold say, two months
ago, that he would kill the whole Bigham
family. The sympathy Of the community in
the neighborhood of the fray is altogether
with the Bighams. Alfordsville is seventeen
miles from here and ten miles from the near
est telegraph office, and it is hard to get news
from there. Hon. John II. O'Neall has been
retained to assist in the prosecution of Gold.
The ill-feeling of Gold against the Bighams
is on account of religious prejudice. The
Bighams are Catholics.

WASHINGTON, March 26.-The death of
Posimaster-general Howe has diSarranged
the Presidents plans. He was intending to
start for the South the last of the week, but
the death of his cabinet minister will delay
his departure so long that he will scarcely
attempt the trip at all. The object was to OBJ
tain needed rest, but as the weather will be
uncomfortably warm in the South within
the next two or three weeks, he will proba-
bly, take a Journey in a different direction.
In fact, it is given out semi-officially that
the Southern trip is off, and that the Presi-
dent will put off his holiday for two or three
weeks. He does not now know where his
wandering footsteps may land him. The
people of Savannah, Ga, have been making
extensive preparations to give the President
a splendid reception, and the change in his
plans will be a ~grievous disappointment to
