woLsELEY TO BE REINFORCED.
EngIand's Hesitation to Comply Met
With a Threat to Resign.

CAIRO, Oct. 21.-Three hundred and
seventy-eight Canadian boatmen have ar
rived at Assouan. The journey of Lupton
Bey frem Fazoklo, in Southern Soudan,
by two steamers, down the Nile to Khar-
toum, shows that the country south of
Khartoum is in better condition than had
been believed.
According to the latest reports that
have been received at DOngOla, only mer-
chants of Berber from Khartoum were on
board the steamer which ran aground
some days ago at Wady Garna. All who
were taken captive by natives have been
set at liberty quite unharmed.
Ralh Bros, bankers, have suspended
payment. They were unable to collect
cash loaned to village communities. but
will probably pay in full. The govern
ment has paid 100000 into the Banque
General, which prevents the difficulty
arising from suspension and ends the
panic Occasioned thereby.

Gen. Rochester Submits His Annual Re
port to President Arthur.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 21.-Paymaster
General Rochester in his annual report
to the Secretary of War says that the to-
tai amount available for the fiscal year
ended June so, 1884, was $15 1870, l61, and
the total amount dIsbursed was $13. .25O,-
$50, leaving a balance of 81 1,929,411. He
commends the present system of deposits
for public funds. He regrets the discon-
t1nuance of the repositories of Santa Fe
and San Antonio, and recommends their
re-establishment. He also recommends
that an appropriation of $l75, 900 be made
for the mileage of officers for the fiscal year
1886, and says that there will undoubted-
ly be deficiency in the appropriation fer
the present fiscal year, which is 100000,
unless great restrictions are made on
the issuing of orders that contemplate
the payment of mileage. 1t Is again
recommended that the low forbidding the
payment of mileage to army officers over
land-grant roads be repealed. Attention
IS called to the former recommendation
in regard to the Importance of a change
iu the law relating to the official bonds of
paymasters. The passage of the bill
(Senate 1867, introduced at the last ses-
sion Of Congress. is urged. The bond of
an approved guarantee company would,
if accepted as security, be great relief
to many officers. A limit of at least four
years, during which the bond will be
operative, should be fixed, and sureties
should be released from liability if the
government fails to bring suit within five
years after the bond expires. Itis recon-
mended that the paragraph of the army
regulations fOrbidding an officer from
hypothecating or transferring his pay ac-
count, not actually due at the time,
should be enforced, and no longer treated
as a dead letter.

Mrs. Mary Blackburn Morris, wife OF
the late Jude Buckner Morris, of Chica-
go, and the sister of ex-Gov. Luke p.
Blackburn and Senator j. &. S. Black
burn, says a Louisville special of Oct. 10.
died at the Blackburn Sanitarium yester-
day after long and painful illness. Mrs.
Morris was one of the most remarkable
women of her time, and was known all
over Kentucky and the South.
She had possed her Goth birthday. and
her long life was filled with continued and
and earnest work as a devoted humanita-
rian. She married Judge Morris. who
had gone from Kentucky to Chicago, and
was the first man to engage in the prac-
tlce OF law in that place, and was also the
first Mayor of that city. He became one
OF the leading men in the State, amassed
large fortune, and was at one time
Judge of the Supreme Court of Illinois.
Mrs. Morris was warmly Southern in
her sentiments during the war, and
scarcely had Camp Douglas, near Chi
cago, been converted into a prison for
captured COnfederates before she mani
tested her devotion in the most practical
manner, visiting the prison and Carving
creature comforts to the prisoners. Her
residence in Chicago was the rallying
point and hiding place for those who
effected their escape, and she provided
them with suitable clothing and gave
them means to return South. She
was frequently restrained by Of
fetal orders from visiting the prison.
but continued to importune the com
mander with such success that the Or
ders were revoked, and she was as regu-
larly at The gate as the sentinel. At her
house the noted Captain Thomas Hines.
the present Chief Justice of Kentucky,
was hid an entire day between bed mat
tresses, with detectives searching every
nook and corner Of the place for him.
When Captain Hines associates. in the
attempt to liberate the the Confederate
prisoners, were captured, Mrs. Norris
and her husband were arrested as accom-
plices and imprisoned for four months
under the vigorous prison rule, during
which time the health Of both was greatly
impaired and their fortune swept away.
They were never arraigned for trial. but
it cost them over $4,000 to obtain a re-
lease, and in order to raise the money
100000 worth of property had TO be sacrj-
feed. After the death of her husband.
which occurred about five years ago, Mrs.
Morris returned to Kentucky to reside
with her brothers. During the term Of
her brother, Gov. Blackburn, Mrs. Morris
and Mrs. Gov. Blackburn established
Sunday schools in the penitentiary and
accomplished much good in recalling
many convicts back to the path Of moral
rectitude.
