Nicholas L. Dukes, the murderer
of Capt. a. c. Mutt. was shot and
killed at UniOntown, Pa, last
Wednesday by Jas. Mutt, twenty
ycar-old son of his victim. The
murder which led to the killing is
still fresh IN the minds of the reading
public. Dukes, who was engaged to
Miss Lizzie Mutt, had written infa-
nous letters to her father, Captain a.
c. Nutt. questioning her chastity,
and Captain Mutt, upon invitation
of Dukes, had gone to the lattcr's
room in the hotel on December a to
settle the affair quietly, when Dukes
shot and killed him. The murder
created intense excitement, and
Dukes was tried, arrested and ac-
quilted. His release created great
Indignation, and threats on his life
were heard on all sides, but no at
tempt was made to carry them out,
and it was generally believed he
would be allowed to remain in Union
town unmolested. The youth who
slew him had stationed himself in a
doorway, as Dukes was coming
down the street, and as he passed he
stepped behind him and shot him in
the back four times, and death fol-
lowed in q few moments. Dukes
was heavily armed when killed and
youngNuttwould have probably shar
ed the fate of his father, had Dukes re-
ceived intimation of what was COM
ing. He had met the boy on TIT
street few days before and laughed
in his face. Mutt surrendered to TIN
police and is in Jail, and public opin
ion is with him almost universally

Hon. Henry Watterson called on
x-Governor Samuel j. Tildcn while
he was in New York last week. He
found him in fine health, living a
happy and retired life at his Grey
stone country residence. Mr.. Wat
terson concludes an account of his
visit as follows:
III never knew a man more entire
ly frank in his intercourse with his
friends than this sage of Greystone !;
but am not his mouthpiece, and it
is not for me to come all the way
from Kentucky to New York to do
that which he is so much better able
to do for himself. | can say, however,
for myself, that nothing passed which
leads me TO modify the opinion ]
have so often expressed, that no pow
er on earth could induce him to ac-
cept the presidency"
This would seem to settle forever
the plan lately formed by Mr.. Hen
bricks friends to bring out the ticket
of 1876 again, in order to defeat Nc
Donald for the first place. 1t is said
that Senator Mcdonald aud Gov
Hendricks are bitter and relentless en-.
emies, and that they sat side by side
for two hours at a recent banquet
without speaking to each other once
If this thing continues, and two o
the party leaders in Indiana are tC
be antagonists to such a degree, i
will be the part of prudence ant
wisdom to place neither of them oil
the next presidential ticket.

unfair to set up the state of things that has
prevailed since tho first Of June.
The history of these later months,
during which robbcrics have been frequent,
large and almost totally unpuuished, is not
touched upon in the report, but belongs to
another fiscal year. Likewise the tone of
confidence in which the report speaks of the

unfavorable comment because at the time of
which the report treats-the end of the last
fiscal year-the force had not yet demon-
strated its comprehensive incapacity; and it

TIE DREADED CHOLERA.

Interesting Facts as 60 the Prevalence OF
the Disease Gathered from Consular Re-
ports.
The national board of health is in receipt
Of several reports from United States repre-
sontatives In eastern countries relative to the
prevalence of cholera Consul Denny, at
Shanghai, China reports that numerous cases
of the disease have appeared in that city.
Fifty-four deaths occurred among the natives
in one portion of the foreign settlement alone
in less than one month. During the
same period seven deaths of foreigners
were registered. Among the latter was the
death of John MCKenna mate of the Amcri-
can bark Baxter. Another seaman of the
same vessel is also reported to have died.
Referring to the nature of the outbreak, the
report states that the cases 4" have all been of
n bud type, justifying the opinion that we
have to deal with that form of cholera which
is distinguished as Asatic true or malig-
nant)." As Shanghai is in direct commune
cation with this country, the only fear of its
introduction is from that place hence the
progress of the dreaded disease in Shanghai
will be watched with interest. 1t is thought
that when the full native report is made up,
II will show a large percentage of cases and
deaths.
The consular report from Alexandria,
Egypt, shows % cases of cholera and 80
deaths, during the week ended Aug. 4.
Singapore China, reports cholera prevailing
at several Chinese ports. The average death
rate at Alexandria is between 10 and 10 cases
daily. Tho national health authorities think
that it will gradually spread over Europe,
and probably reach tho United States next
season, by prevailing in our line of emigra-
ton, and being brought hero in the clothing
and baggage o. the thousands of emigrants
that arrive here monthly. In the above
event it is thought that emigration will have
to be entirely stopped.

JUDGE THoMAN, one of the civil service

1t is cruel 10 suggest It, but Judge Thom0n may
not have reflected that this "success" might he

capacity among the applicants, The WORK OF CON
ducting Il really effective civil service exam ina
tiun is not al oGsy one. II requires some expert
encu as well MS natural aptitude that is not very
common, aud while we trust that all the judges
anticipalions will be realized, we should be glnd
to see him specify some more solid ground for
congratulatlun than tho number of candidates
who were found up to the minimum standard,
We will match that against anything ever
said by Mr.. Diclfens's Daniel Quilp for ma
leyolence and cusscdness. Oh! if only old
Quilp could only have "whaclS" at those
young follows, they wouldn't got many credit

Judge Lawrence, first comptroller of the
treasury, said yesterday, with reference to a
published statement, that tho expense ac-
counts for some of the official pleasure trips
of this summer would meet with objection in
his Office; that he knew of no ground for
such a statement He said he did not know
Of any accounts for such trips that would
come under his supervision. The cost of run
ming the vessels OF the navy and of the rev.
enue marine service was not increased by the
presence on board of government officials, and
he knew of no other item Of expense of these
trips outside of the salaries Of tho oil cals
themselves. With these he said he had
nothing to do. He added that it had long 81 nee
been decided that so long rs the name of
p rmancnt employe was carried on the rolls
of department his salary could not be with
held from him on any pretext. He cited the
cases of two prominent officials who had not
been at their desks, one of them for eight
and one for nine months but whose salaries
had been paid to them during all that time.
A law passed at the last session of congress
had, he said, limited the time in which clerks
and employees below the grade Of the head of
a division could absent themselves from duty
and draw their pay, to thirty days in each
year except in cases Of sickness but this was
the only limitation placed by law upon the
absence of persons holding offices in tho
civil service.
