Withdrawal of Orders for Gunboats.

PARIS, Sept. 1.-THE French government
has withdrawn its orders to an English firm
to construct river gunboats for use in Ton
quin, on account of inability to agree on the
terms of the contract.
The Republique Francais urges that it is to
the material interest of all European powers
to make common cause with France against
the raising by China of barrier to commerce.
Rumors of dissension in the French cabi-
net have been revived. 1t is thought they
will result in the resign!ng of Challemel-
Lacour. Waddington had an interview with
Ferry to-day, and recounted the conversa-
tions which he had with Marquis Tseng
A telegram from Hong Kong says: General
Bouet has arrived here from Hanoi. Opera
tons in Tonquln are suspended until the ar
rival of reinforcements
1t is believed General Bouets arrival means
his removal from active command. The
Black Flags threaten the French outposts,
which have been withdrawn to Hanoi wait
ing reinforcements.

WHEN
A TERRIBLE TEXAS TALE.
A Whole County Terrorized and Arming to
Resist an Uprising of the Blacks.

GALVESTON, Tex, Sept. 1.-THE News's
Longview special says: "a reign of terror
prevails in every portion of the county, ex-
cept, perhaps, Kilgore from which place
there is no report, The excitement is due
to a raid on the whites supposed to be con-
templated by the blacks. Farmers have
their wives and children in gin-houses, and
are holding guard over them. In some COM
munities little sleep has been had since
Friday night, and haggard faces with looks
OF fear or stern determination are seen
everywhere, and betoken the dread produced
by the blood curdling reports brought in
by each new arrival Hundreds of country
men were in Longview to-day, and one re-
turning to their homes carried the arms
and ammunition obtainable. In many cases,
when a weapon was called for, man would
grab for it IS though in desperation and
strive to obtain its possession. A new sup
ply of fifty Winchester rifles was among
what was taken by the countrymen. 1t is
reported that the negroes received by express
at Gladwater, the next station west, fifty
Winchesters, and that weapons
are being received by them
all over the country. Probably
the whole trouble mas arisen from the threats
and speeches of few colored persons of bad
repute, whose course is not sanctioned and
was not known by the mass of the negroes.
There are indications that as much fear has
been excited among the latter as among the
whites. However this may be, the people
have been carried to such pitch of excite
ment that it is certain that, should a white
person be molested, one of the bloodiest
tragedies will be enacted ever known.

EVICTION IN IRELAND.
A Case of Exceptional Character Described
by Michael Davitt.

"A Case OF Exceptional Character Described
by Michael Davitt.
Letter in Chicago Tribune.
The I'd of last month, while passing through
West Clare on a tour of inspection for the
National League, heard of an eviction which
had been carried out few days previously
near the pretty watering place of Kilkee.
drove over to the scene, and the following
facts were given me by the Widow Collins
and her son, the evicted parties: The hold
ing consisted of eleven acres of cut-away bog
bog partly reclaimed, upon which they bad
lived and toiled for thirty years. The land
lords name is Colonel Mcdonnell, of Ennis
The government valuation of the farm is e.
and the rent exacted during the whole period
of occupation was ELL, or close upon 400 per
cent. above the declared value of the land.
Two months ago the Widow Collins took the
landlord into the Land Court whereupon
the holding was revalued, and the judi
cial rent fixed at f5, being a
reduction on the old rack-rent of
f6, or over go per cent. Taking even this
judicial rent, which is so per cent. above the
valuation, as a sample of fair rent to pay
the landlord had taken from the Widow Col
Inns the sum of 9180 over and above what he
was entitled to receive from a government
IIlbuhdI punt Oh view, OF, IN Otner HgureS,
what would have purchased the fee simple
of the holding, and left this industrious
widow $50 with which to restock her little
farm. WAS any of this money refunded?'
some of your readers may inquire. No; on
the contrary, for having avaled herself of
the privileges of the land act and for effect
ing such a reduction in her rent she was
evicted by Colonel Mcdonnell for the sum
of 919 arrears due under the old rack rent,
When the landlord can no longer extract f6
year of this tenants earnings more than
the law will permit him to take, he turns her
out of her holding, and all her improve
ments for thirty years are taken from her
without compensation by the law which
evicts her as the ESQ were by the landlord.
In a word, one law declares that Colonel
Mcdonnell robbed Widow Collins of ESQ in
thirty years, while another law deprives her
OF her holding and casts her upon the high
way because the landlord had not succeed
ed in adding f19 more to the sum he had al
ready confscated out of the earnings of her
self and son. These facts speak for them

PAUL VANDERVOORT.
He Airs His Grievance, and Says Nothing
Short of Eeins tatement Will Satisfy Him.

PrTTsBURG, Sept ia prominent mem
ber of the Grand Army of the Republic to-
day, received letter from Paul Vandervoort,
ex-commander in-chief of the G. A. R., in
which the recent action of Postmaster-gen-
eral Gresham in removing him from the mail
service, is reviewed at length. Vandervoort
admits that he was absent from duty 2G5
days during the last fiscal year, but says this
was by permission of Postmaster-generals
Howe and Gresham. Under Howe his pay
went on, but since Gresham came into
power he has only been paid for the time he
was on duty. In any event, he said,
this charge has been withdrawn, and
it is now urged against him that
he went to Idaho contrary to
instructions from division superi ntendent
White, his superior. This charge he denies,
and says his visit to Idaho was for the pur-
pose of instructng the men on the new
routes; and that White wanted him to stay
longer than he did. He complains that he
was removed without notice or investigation,
says that Gresham has been imposed upon,
and that he will be satisfied with nothing
short of reinstatement

General Bouet Relieved.

LONDON, Sept. 17.-Itis is believed Minister
Ferry has resumed negotiations with Mar
qus Tseng because the relations between
Challemel-Lacour and the Marquis had be-
come strained. The Hong Kong disagreements
between the French military and civil COM
missioners have reached crisis, Dr. Ham
mond, French civil commissioner for Ton
quin, having relieved General Bouet of his
command, and appointed Colonies
Beocht and Badens to share it
equally. General Bouet will return to
France Immediately.
The French outposts at Palan are menaced
daily and will probably be withdrawn, as the
place is scarcely tenable. In the recent battle
the Black Flags fought with great bravery.

Prince Bismarck and His Doctor.

Berlin Cor. Vienna Popular Medical journal.
Prince Bismarck, like other more ordinary
mortals, is troubled with the ills that flesh
is heir to-" and is at present suffering from
painful neuralgia affection. He treats the
different schools of medicine with the same
absolute Indifference which he exhibits to-
ward certain political questions. Allopathy
or homnopathy-it is all the same to him if
he only believes he can be cured. 1t has
often happened that he has allowed himself
to be treated alternately by an allopathic
and homeopathic physician, and some
times even by both simultaneously,
which certainly is an evidence of a sound
constitution on the Princes part. He
has frequently told his doctors that he
cared less for the method of treatment
than for its success. On several occasions he
even demanded of his physician to cure him,
or, at least, render him capable of working
within given time, and if this was accom-
plished the Prince was satisfied. Among mis-
medical advisers may be mentioned DR..
Struck, Dr. Cohn and Dr. Diruf, all allopath-
lists. Since about 1865 he also consulted the
following homeopathists DIR. Kleinschmidt,
DIR. Mertens, DR.. Vehsemeyer and DR.. Ewing
enberg. For two years DR.. Frerchs was chief
OF the Princes medical staff, and since last
winter the Munich physician, DR.. Schwen-
niger. The latter had succeeded in curing
Count William Bismarck, the Princes son,
OF an inclination to exorbitant obesity by
prohibiting the use of any article of diet eX-.
cept sweet and sour milk. The Prince then
engaged the distinguished practitioners sery-
ices. The cure is stated to have been already
substantially completed, and as a result
Prince Bismarck is said to have decreased
sixty pounds from his former $50 pounds in
weioht
