On Thursday 18th Secretary Frelinghuy
sen te%legraphed Minister Lowell, stating
that the house OF representatives had
brought the case of ODonnell to the pres.
ideuts notice, in the hope that the latter
might secure reasonable delay of the ex-
ecutlon OF the sentence, and ascertain
whether the prisoner was an American cit.
Ien, and whether there was an error in the
trial. In the telegram Mr.. Lowell was in
styucted as follows:
As before instructed, you will conside,
O'Donnell's citizenship established, there
being in Great Britain no judicial exsmina,
ton on appeal proceedings in a criminal
trial. Possible errors can only be corrected
through q new trial or executive action up
on the sentence. Therefore, this govern.
ment is anxious that such careful examina.
ton be given to the proceedings of thit
committed. You are therefore directed BY
the president to request q delay of the exc
cution Of sentence, and that a careful
examination be made by her majesty's gov
erament, and the president be permitted tc
present any alleged points in error.
Secretary Frelinghuysen Is now In re
ceipt ofa telegram from Mr.. Lowell, which
states that on the 18th he received the
above telegrsm and Immediately commu.
nicated its substance to Earl Granville who
acknowledged its receipt and stated THAT j
had been referred to the proper authorities.
On the 18th inst, Mr.. Lowell received Lord
Granville's reply, in which the latter, after
referring to Mr.. Lowell's communication,
stated that counsel for O'Dopnell
having submitted what representa-.
TOMS he thought advisable on the prisoner
behalf, those representations, under the cir
cumstances, had been carefully examined
and considered in the manner usual in q
case Of capital conviction, and her majesty
government found no grounds upon which II
would be justified in advising the crown te
interfere with the sentence oflaw or lis exc.
| ution.

Quite change will be made in the build
ing operations at Fourth and French streets.
1t will be remembered by our readers that
/. y. Phillips & Son purchased the property
on the southeast corner tor the purpose of
erecting -four store. The old building was
torn down, the cellar for the new one dug
and portion of the foundation laid. In
digging for the foundation too much was
taken away from the foundation of
Barkley & Bros stable, and portion of
it fell in, few days ago. This changed things
considerably. j. R. D. Seeds s. Son, con-
tractors for erecting Phillips new building,
have purchased of Barkley g. Bro, 80 feet
of their lot upon which the stable is erected.
They together with Phillips & Son will
erect four stores on Fourth street, instead
OF the one that was to be erected by Phillips.
The stores will be three stories high and
have depth of 45 feet. This together with
the new residence OF Martin Farrell, will
make quite a change in the square from
