Death of a Kentucky Giant.

WINCHESTER, KY, May 22.-News has
inst reached here of the death of Simpson
Trussell, the great Clark County giant,
which occurred near Irvine, Estill County,
on the 14th inst. Mr.. Trussell measured six
feet eleven inches in height with his boots
off, and was known throughout the county
as the largest, or rather the tallest man in
all these parts. He weighed nearly three
hundred pounds, yet carried not a surplus
pound. He was about fifty years old at the
time of his death and though herculean in
his strength, was as gentle as q lamb,
unless molested, when he was considered
as brave as Julius Cesar. He was quite
prohigate, and for the last two years was q
confirmed invalid from paralysis, was una
BILE to stand or sit up, and until some two
months ago was a pauper in the county
and because the authorities of this
county would not allow them to live with
him at the Poor-house, he became Offend
ed, and had himself moved to the county
of Estill, where he resided with two OF
more wives and dozen or more children.
He will be remembered by many of his old
comrades who were prisoners with him at
Camp Douglas, ILL.,, and who with a num-
Der of them escaped on the memorable cold
New Years night of 1864, when it
was so cold that the pickets froze off their
guard. TrusSell was said to have made a
fine soldier, and when General Morgan
needed daring deed done or a hazardous
line to guard he always called on Trussell.
Very little is known of his ancestral his
tory, but it is generally conceded that his
forefathers were italian, and settled in
Virginia in the early settlement of this
country.

THE NORTHWEST WAR.
An Prisoners Released--White Gap
Captured.
voundmaker, With - White F'ag, Asks for
Favorable Terms for Surrender.

ST. PAUL, MIMI, May GA Battleford
dispatch of May 81 says: "At sunset to-
night Father Cochin and twenty-five other
prisoners, bearing a white flag, arrived
from Poundmaker's camp, with a letter
asking upon what terms surrender would
be accepted. He wants a reply in two
days. He also sent messengers with SINH
lar letters to General Middleton. This
action was caused by the arrival of four
half-breeds, who reported the capture
of Riel. The news created constel :
nation in the Indian camp, braves
hiding their rifles and removing
their war paint. A council was held, and
the result was a decision to send in the
priest and prisoners. 1t seems Pound
maker was on the way to join Riel when
he met the half-breed scout. The letter
was written at Poundmaker's dictation by
Jefferson, school-master on the reserve.
The prisoners sent in with Father Cochin
include the twenty te lmsters captured in
the Eagle Hills; Fontafhe, the captured
scout; . Bremner and Sayers, of
Bresaylor's settlement, and two
women in male apparel. Twenty -one
women and children from Bresaylor's set
tlement are held as hostages. The team
sters say they were well treated by the half
breeds, who protected them with leveled
rifles from Indians who were threatening
to kill them. Father Cochin returns to-
morrow with letter from Colonel Otter
stating that Poundmaker must negotiate
with General Middleton, and meanwhile
hoStilities must cease. Middleton is re-
ported to-day as having reached Prince
Albert on the 18th inst.

Mr.. Frye, of Maine, is Senator from
that State. He belongs to school of
disreputable politicians of which Mr..
Blaine is chief. When these men have
not their hands in the ballot-boxes, they
have them deep in the public treasury;
when they are not cencocting some
scheme to plunder, they are manufact-

Frye has certain facility of express

very day that passes

LONDON, May A.-Every day that passes
with no enlightenment of the public regard
ing the negotiations with Russia deepens
the already prevalent conviction that a
hitch has occurred and increases the belief
in the gravity of the obstacle. This leads
to all sorts of disheartening utterances by
the papers, and is rapidly undermining
confidence in the sagacity, If
not in the good faith, of the Govern
ment. Orders have been sent to: ::Aldershot
for a fresh squadron of Hussars to embark
for Egypt at the earliest possible moment.
This order, when it becomes generally
know, is certain to cause quite as great a
sensation as the detention of the Guards at
Alexandria and the Australians at
Alden. Orders have also been sent to the
Royal Arsenal at Woolwich to resume
overtime and night-work in Fastening the
manufacture ordinance and ammuni-
tion. Comments are confined to the papers
and the clubs. where opinions differ as to
whether the moral effect of the prepara-
tions is intended mainly for Russia or for
France.

Anarchist Outbreak in Paris.

PARIS, May A.-To-day being the day
set apart for the annual visit to the burial
places of the dead, there was an unusually
large number of persons at Pere la Chaise.
The visitors were as orderly as the place
and the purpose of their visit demanded
until demonstration was made by An
archists over one of their dead.
This was followed by the appearance
of a body of Communists carrying
red flags. The police attempted to seize
the flags, but were resisted stoutly by the
Communists, after which fight ensued.
The police charged the crowd with bayon-
cts, and the rioters retaliated by firing
their revolvers at the police. Several times
the police charged before they were able to
break the solid mass of men, women and
children confronting them. Finally
the onslaughts of the police
could no longer be withstood, and the
crowd fell back. Men, women and little
children were lying here and there upon
the ground, some of them frightfully
hacked and pierced with bayonets, while
many of the police were found to have been
shot, some of them seriously, and in two or
three cases fatally. Forty of the Com
| munists were arrested, and the wounded
conveyed to hospitals. =:

Immiarant Tax Decision.

WASHINGTON, May A.-The Attorney
Generals decision that the head money tax
is collectable from foreign visitors and all
passengers arriving at our ports, other
than citizens or residents, as well as from
immigrants, is regarded by the Treasury
authorities as simplifying many. of
the care of arriving emigrants at New
York. This head money, heretofore col
lected only from immigrants, is available
for the care of this class of arrivals, the
maintenance of hospitals, ETC., at the port
the collections at Baltimore, Philadelphia
and some other points have been greater
than required for the purposes to
which they were devoted, while at New
York the sum has been entirely inadequate.
The new ruling is the result of an agita.
tion of the subject by the Commissioners OF
Immigration at New York, and will bring
about great increase in this fun /.
