COURBET'S WORK.
Admiral Pevron Minister of the


Admiral Peyron, Minister of the Ma
rine, has received the following dispatch
from Admiral Courbet:
MIN RIVER, FRIDAY, Aug. 90, 6 P. NJ
Thanks for the expression of satisfaction on
the part of the government. cannot too
warmly praise the officers and crew. The
operations in Min river have been concluded.
They were attended with complete success.
All the batteries along the river have been
destroyed and most of the cannon exploded
with gun cotton. We were obliged to leave
some intact because the men ordered to reach
them would have been exposed to a heavy
musketry fire, to which no reply would have
been possible. All our ships left Min river
to- day, and several of them have already
reached Malson anchorage. / shall arrive
there tomorrow with the DuQuay and
Truin. The latter has served as my ii. g ship
since Monday. Our losses during the week
are 10 killed, including ! officer, and l3 seri-
ously and % slightly wounded. In the Mingan
and Kin Pal channels there were several case
mated batteries. Two of these were clad
from u to 80 centimetres thick with plates of
sheet iron bolted together. The calibre of the
Chinese guns ranged from IA to Il centime
tres.
FERRY's FLowERY THANKS.
Prime Minister Ferry has sent the fol-
lowing telegram to Admiral Courbet:
''The country which hailed you as victor at
SOntay is now your debtor for another deed
of arms. The Government of the Republic is
happy to express the nations gratitude to
leader"
CHINA'S INDIGNATION.
The Pau Mall Gazette says: "There is
not the slightest foundation for the report
that China wishes to come to an agree
ment with France. The Chinese consider
the Foo Chow affair as an act of treach-
cry on the part of Admiral Courbet, who
took advantage Of the permission accord
ed the war ships of friendly powers to
enter Chinese ports. The barbarIty of
continuing to fire hours after the Chinese
vessels had ceased is the cause for in
tense excitement against Europeans"
A meeting of the Extreme Left was held
to-day. 1t was decided to present pro-
test to President Grevy against the non
convocation of the Chambers to meet in
special session at this juncture of affairs.
The French naval divisions of China
and Tonquin will heneeforth form only
one squadron.
La Nationalist states that Admiral
Courbet has full powers to operate against
China.
La Untrerse has special dispatch from
Hong Kong which says that French mis-
sionaries have been officially expelled

DECIDING THE CLAIM.
MARCY's DIPLOMACY.

1t was conducted on the part Of Austria by
the Minister at Washington, Baron HUFFMAN,
and on the part of the United States by Mr..
Marcy. a man of great power and thoroughly
American. The same writer says that
Marcy was completely triumphant in hls
argument and ROsZta was remanded to the
United States. You viii observe that Martin
KOsZta was not an American citizen. He
had only declared his intention to become
such and that his return to Europe was
voluntary on his part. His case
would not fall within the letter of either plat
form. The platforms speak only of citizens
adopted and natives. In that correspondence
the right of eXpatriation became established,
and what was more important possibly that
right was held to include the period between
the settlement Of the emigrant and his decla-
ration of an intention to apply for admis-
sion to citizenship. Mr.. Marcy said that the
result is that KOsZta acquired while in the
United States their national character, that
he retained that character when he was seized
at Smyrna, and that he had right to be
respected as such while there by Austria and
every other foreign power

BLESSINGS on LOWER rAxEs.

Lower taxes will signify lighter burthens
upon the peOple-mOney returning to the
channels of trade; enterprise restored and
stimulated; a renewed demand for the
product of industry and the consequent in
creased demand for labor, and universal
property. If the four hundred millions now
locked up in the Treasury were restored to
the channels Of trade and commerce, who can
doubt that labor would find employment and
the manufacturer a market for his fabrics.

An Ancient Orname nt .

MT. Ordway, who has been making excavations in the ruins above town showed us, q few days since, pe- cul iar al.d highly ornamented shell which lie exhumcd some time ago
 The she'll appears to be a sea shell, about one inch by one ard three quarters in size, the outside of which Las been covered by some kind of dark cement or gum, and in this is embedded probably sixty small turquoI c, each of an oblopg shape, the angles being perfectly squa re each piece being worked in a curve on the under side so IS 10 cores pond exactly with the curve of the shell. These pieces are SO exactly if ted to- gtther that the cement does not show up between them except in two small lines on each extremity of the shell, where it is obviously in- tended they should show through by way of ornament. The pieces of turquoise are of numerous shades, from bluish white to the most beautiful and highly prized deep blue. From the general indications the piece has no doubt at some tine been an ornament pendant from the nos rils of some one of the myste- rious men of unfolded ages that have passed.

THE Benstn Herold, c4nyassing the Democratic candidates for Cons gresslonal honor in the Territory, has this to say of the Hon. Geo. II. Stevens: George H. Stevens is eiI- titled to lots of credit. As man he stands unblemished. He has been tried in several positions and iD no instance found wanting. He has made a good Sheriff for Graham county, and serv,d several sessions in the legislature, each time coming out with clear record; his most notable action in that body occur~ ring in 1875, when, after the entire Pima county de'egaticn had stood before King Woolsey and with upe lifted hands pledged their honor to stand by the bill locating the capital al Phoenix, SteSens was the cnly man who had any honor, and stoutly maintained his pledge 10 the end, and that, too. where such men failed as Sydney R.

The Congress mar looked through the list of all the offices in the gift of a member of Congress, and could not find any ofice l,y that name. He inquired ot all the other members of Congress if they had had applications for the position of "census." They all denied that they had ever been ap- piled to fill that office. He finally wrote to the applicant and asked him what his application meant. The man answered that he had been read ng that the last census em- braced 15,000 women, and he thought he would Ike to be census.

AZTEC WAR CLUBS
An Interesting Discovery m the
 Superstition N :untain1,

Ncssrs. Asa and Babcock, of T, m. pc, have been prospecting for some time in the Superstition mountains, report the discovery of cave O. considerable dimensions in which they found some 200 W oodcn prchi S loric war clubs. These clubs are hard wood, ranging from fifteen 10 twenty inches in length, with grip carved on one end somewhat after the style of policeman's club, and the other end is perha ps three inches in diameter. The wood of which q portion of them are made is eXceed- ingly hard. something like Geanzdni ta, while others seem to be of tough mon t,in oak Many of them are painted and roughly carved. the lat ter woVk apparently having been done with some rude instrument, possibly their stone axes. The pres ery aticn of these clubs is somewhat remarkable, considering the ages through whIch they must have lain aud their present perfect condition. Besides, lhey are enc more evidence of !he character of that apparently semi civiliZ,d recple who have at snme time occupied this whole scc~ lion with their peculiar and, in many rcSncctS. remarkable inetittI~ tions.
 Messrs. Asa and Babcock brought away with them quite a number of these remarkable instruments for pres ertaticn to their friends and as samples of whal they had discov- cred.
