PER1Ls OF THE DEEP.
Depredailons Of Gang of Pirates in
The Black Sea.

LONDON, Aug. 8.
Advices from Odessa bring the details of
formidable systems of fraud which have just
been brought to light in come ction with the
shipping trade. The Straights of Keith or
Yenikale are one of the most dangerous pas
sages of the Black Sea, and of late years the
number of vessels wrecked on adjoining
coasts had reached an extraordinary aggre-
gate. English insurance companies have
paid lndemnities amounting to many millions
OF robles. Attention has been drawn to the
fact that great many disasters have occurred
in calm weather, and other suspicious cir
cumstaDces were noticed, such as fortunes
rapidly made by some of the pilots. Infor
nation was sent to London that former
pilot of Italian origin was the head of band
OF pirates of various natiOns-English, Ital-
ians, Greeks and Prussians, who made their
living by disasters on the coast. They were
in collusion with pilots and charged large
sums fer assisting the vessels which the pilots
suffered to go ashore. In less than two
years fifty vessels were stranded, and had
recourse to the assistance of these pirates
An English marine insurance company, on
learning the facts, sent an agent to Odessa to
lay the matter before the authorities. Pre-
liminary inquiry has fully confirmed the sus-
picions of the public. and tits said that gov
eminent officials are compromised in the
matter.

Loyal Sentiments of Former Prominent
Rebels.

GvLvEsroN, Aug. 6.
The confederate reunion At Mckinney,
Texas. yesterday. was attended BY some 49,
600 people. Addresses were made by Gen.
Cahill, ex-Gov. Throckmorton, Gov Ireland.
ex-Gov. Hubbard, Gen. Lewis, Col. Brown
and Congressman Welborn. The tenor Of
Gov. Irelsnd's speech. which was a fair
sample of most of the others, was that the
confedrates had no excuse to make for the
part taken BY them in the late contest. He
said: We are to forget the political strife
which led to the war, hut must teach our
children that we are all Americans and ever
ready to battle with our country's assailants
from whatever quarter.
Gen. Lewis said he would never admit a
bloody chasm, but that it was bridged. He
was glad Gen. Butler had not been invited
Butler was no democrat. The name of JET
ferson Davis was the graudest in American
history, land the speaker would never make
peace with Butler. He might be an unrecon-
structed rebel but ifcalled upon to defend TIE
national honor or its rights he would respond.

EOhE w ASHAhIE, w w., aug. o.
The President and party left Green River
station at A. M, Monday, having spent
Sunday there. The three spring wagons in
which the party were seated ware drawn BY
four Missouri mules to each vehicle, and the
first day. drive was made by relays for 1Ol
miles to Camp Lord on the banks of Sweet
water. Dinner had been prepared under di-
rection of Capt. Lord, depot quartermaster
at Cheyenne. The President enjoyed the
ride greatly, being seated on the outside of
the wagon with the driver. During the last
40 miles the road ran over country covered
by sage brush. Hundreds of aptelopes, sage
hares and rabbits gave pleasant excitement
to the journey. All enjoyed the mountain
air and scenery.
At o'clock on the morning of the 7th,
after bountiful breakfast, the party left
Camp Lord for Fort Washakie, As miles.
The President rode with the driver during
the first stage of 81 miles to Little Popoagie
At Miners Delight, a mining camp between
the point of starting and the end of the first
stage, the party stopped to watch the opera

to the President painful of pay dirt and he
went through the process of washing out the
gold which showed in the pan a small guam
tity of the precious metal. After lunch at
the end of Red Canon. a most wonderful
formation of cliffs of red ochre giving the
name to the valley. the party went on to Fort
Washakie, reaching their camp at $50 z. NJ.
The ShOehorn and Bannock Indians upon
whose reservation the camp is located, turned
out to welcome the Great Father and dashed
across the plain around the Presidents party,
saily attired, the squaws especially, display
ing their skill in horsemanship.
After the party had rested here day they
were to take horses for the Yellowstone Park.
All are well and the President enjoys the trip
more than any one in the party.

Native officials here are much blamed con-

from cholera there, while the number of in
mates is but 27O. English doctors, on be-

victims of cholera were lying beside persons
who were suffering from the disease.
