New YORK, June 10-The Post prints the
following from its London correspondent: have

is the Irish party and Mr.. Parnell, and there is
the liveliest desire everywhere to know what
their action will be toward the Conservative

signal proof of the advantage of policy of
boldness and honesty.
We should have expelled the minority long
ago. said he Except for the secession of twenty
members who were elected on the same princi

rest of the session, Mr. Parnel assured me that,

WASHINGTON June 10.-Some weeks ago,
Cuthbert Bullett Jones, of Louisiana,
ported to have secured the consulate at Callao,
Peru. The announcement was followed by
story in one of the local papers here, giving the
details of a vendetta between the Jones and
Liddell families in Louisiana. The reported
appointment brought vigorous protest from
several Louisiana men, among whom was Con-
gresham j. Floyd King. King was interviewed
by Mr.. Charles T. Murray. correspondent of
Pittshurg paper, who re-told the story
of the vendetta, concluding with
charge rejecting very severely upon the
character of two ladies of the Jones
and Liddel families, which was put in the form
of an interview with General King Cuthbert
B. Jones, on hearing of the charge, declared
that it was absolutely false, and last night there
was talk of blood to avenge the insult. 1t was
expected that either King, JONES' or the CORE
spondeut would be shot to-day, and there was a
great deal Of excitement in the vicinity of the
uptown hotels, and friends of the interested
parties were busy all morning endeavoring to
bring about amicable arrangement, which has
at last been effected. The correspondent and
Mr.. King had an interview to-day, the result of
which was that the former published the follow
ing retraction:
las there were some inaccuracies in the inter-
view in question, which were made evident by
conversation with Mr. King aietter of explanation
of the circumstances under which the interview
was obtained, and in acknowledgment of the
errors, has been sent by me to Mr.. Wrghtman
for Mr. Jones's perusa The portion Of the in
terview of which complaint is made was that,
in reference to the mothers of the Liddells and
Joneses, which is unquestlonably erroneous, as
of the ladies i'll question has been ascertained
to have been dead several years, and the other,
Mrs. Jones' is lady of seventy, living, respected
by those who know her, on her own plantation
in Louisiana"
It is due to Mr.. Murray to say that he is ex-
ceedinglY deaf, which accounts for the erroneous
character of the interview.

The johnson Trial at Greenville.

Speclal TO the indianapolis Journal
GREENvILLE, Tenn, June 10.--The trial of
Captain Z. L. Johnson for the murder of Major
Edwin Henry. last September, began in the
Circuit Court here this morning. The entire
day was taken up in securing the jury. The
first testimony will be introduced tomorrow.
The bill of indictment charges johnson with
committing willful, malicious and premeditated
murder. Senator Voorhees, arrived last night
and will defend Johnson being assisted by able
local talent. Captain johnson and his son Grif
6th arrived two days ago. and have been the
recipients of marked attention from citizens.
The courtroom was crowded to-day, and great
interest is shown in the case. Public feeling is
almost entirely with the defendant, as it has
been all along. Captain johnson is enjoying
better health than he has for years, and is very
cheerful. The trial will last several days.

INSUFFICIENT APPROPRIATIONS.

Embarrassments Resulting from the "Econ-
Omy" of the Randall School.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal
WASHINGTON, June 10.-The Randall idea of
economy, which is always exhibited when the
appropriation bills are brought into the House,
bids fair to be followed by the usual deficiency
bills in the next Congress 1t is estimated that
the appropriations for the coming fiscal year for
the purposes of the payment of pensions will be
far below the sum required to carry out the law
to pay the pensions which have been provided
for. This is in spite of the fact that the wonder
full new Commissioner of Pensions has discovered
in one or two instances that men who have died
are no longer drawing pensions, and that widows
who have married again have had their names
stricken from the pension rolls. Mr.. Black has
caused an announcement of this character to be
published in the local papers of the Democratic
persuasion, and the inference, of course, nat
urally was, as the articles were written that the
pensions had been fraudulently paid since the
death of the benefciaries. 1t is an exceedingly
small method of gaining party capital, but, on
the principle that lie will travel ten times as
fast as the truth, it may have more or less effect
in future presidential campaigns

will be done, il done at ALL at the expense of the
government, for the benefit of New York State
There is nothing to show that New York State
herself has any inclination to ask the general
government. to improve her great waterway,
but there are signs that some people are inter
ested in it to such an extent that they are will
ing to pay good round rates for the advertise
ments which they are at present receiving. The
shipcanal scheme along the coast, which was
proposed by Secretary Chandler last December,
will receive more or less attention, and the
Maryland and Delaware canal project will prob.
ably spring up again. In fact. everything points
to a watery dicussion in the House next winter.
The probabilities are that the river and harbor
bill alone will provide for an appropriation Of
upwards Of 500. O00, O0O The Democratic party,
undoubtedly, will reduce the surplus as far as
possible by the water method.

A Democratic Senator's Opinion of the Dis
placement of Bruce.
Washington Special.
The more thoughtful of Democrat politicians
think the removal of ex-senator Bruce, Register
of the Treasury, and the appointment of General
Rosecrans in his place, was the worst political
blunier the President has yet made There are
about 100000 negroes in the country, and
Bruce has been their sole representative in the
higher parts of the executive branch of the gov.
ernment. He is man of irreproachable char
acter, intelligence and ability.
'sThe Democrats wish to win the confidence
of the negroes, who are a potent force in the
politics of the South" said prominent Demo-
cratic senator to-day How can we do itl The
foremost negro in the land probably, excepting
Fred Douglass, has been removed from Office
and Democrat put in his place If we have
wanted to inspire the negroes with confidence
in the new administration, how could it have
been better done than by keeping Mr. Bruce in
office2 He a former senator of the United
States, his commission had not yet expired, and
no charges were preferred against him. His
resignation was requested, and, most iniudi-
ciously, to make place for General Rcsecrans
There is only one way in which the adminlstra-
tion repair this blunder, and that is to ap-
point Bruce or some. other colored man to
position of equal prominence with the one he
has vacated"

which would 60 to indicate that his tastes were

he has concluded to close up the appointment of

desk as the members of the Cabinet There is
also very strange story af1oat, which is in ef-

that this is another canard gotten up to iniure
