LONDON, April 13.-Marquis Hart
ington, Secretary for War, in NOV
ing a reply to the Queens message
summoning the reserves, stated that
he was unable, at present, to speak
concerning military measures under
consideration by the Government,
because recent events had modified
the views of the Indian Government
concerning the number of reinforce
ments required. He hoped to submit
to common vote of credit next Mon

said. Northcote, the conservative
leader of the House Of Commons,

Land Office Decision.

WASHINGTON, April Is. - General
Sparks, the new Commissioner of the
General Land Office, to-day sent let
tiers to the Register and Receiver of
the Land Office at Walla Walla,
W.T., revoking an order made March
goth, allowing the Northern Pacific
railroad to change its lines OF final
limit between the towns Of WalIula
and Dayton, in Washington Terri
tory, so as to include other lands
under its grant within this extended
limit. The Commissioners says: cit
appears that this change Vas asked
for in the interest of certain alleged
purchasers from the Railroad Com
pany, of lands not subject to selection
or sale by the company under an
order OF this department., of August
18th, 1881, fixing the terminal limit
of said withdrawal" Complaint was
made by W. H. Reed, of Walla
Walla, that this order preiudiced the
interests OF the settlers on 149, 7O6
acres of land in favor of purchasers of
1000 acres from the railroad COM
pany. The Commissioner is of the
opinion that the order was made
under q misconcertion OF the letter
of Secretary Lamar of the 18th nlt.,
and that the limit Of the road was
fixed in accordance with an old
established rule Of the office, and it
is not shown that any error made in
It's ascertainment of limit in this case.
The line of road, therefore, remains
unchanged.

ST. PETERSBURG, April 12.-The
Official Messenger publishes the fol-
lowing telegram from General Koma-
rolf, dated April l: "On the 25th of
March our detachment approached
Dosh Kapri. When near Brig we
saw an iDtrenchment occupied by AT
ghans. In order TO avoid a conflict l
stationed my troops five versts IA lit.
tie over three miles, from the Afghan
position. Negotiations with Captain
Yate, a member Of Sir Peter Lums-
denis force, were commenced on the
10Th. When the AfghaDs became con-
WINGED that we had no intention OF
attacking them they daily drew near
er to our camp. On the 9th they
dispatched against a company OF ours
a accommodating party OF three COM
panies with a gun and some cavalry.
Next day their audacity and AFRO
gauce increased. They occupied a
high aud commanding pos ition III
the left fl ank of our camp, made in
trenchments and placed a cavalry
post in the rear of our line, and a
picket within gunshot of our fort.
On the 29th | sent the Afghan COM
mander an energetic summons to
evacuate the left bank Of the Kushk
river and the right bank Of the
Murgpah as for as the mouth of the
Kushk. He replied that acting on
the advice of the English he would
not retire beyond the Kushk. / then
sent him a private letter couched in
amicable trims. On The 3Oth, in order
to support my demand, l marched
vita my detachment against the At
CHAN position, still expecting a pacific
issue, but a fire from the Afghan
artillery and an attack of their cav
airy compelled me to accept combat.

Happy Woman.

WASHINGTON, April ia de-
cision was rendered by the Supreme
Court of the United States to-day, in
the case of Frances Dodge ct al., ap-
pelant, against Thomas Knowles,
which presents the liability of a mar
ried woman for certain debts CON
tracted by her husband, nominally as
her trustee. The Court holds that
neither the liability for the provis-
JOE supplied at a dwelling house
where the husband and wife and
their children are living together,
nor d promissory note given by the
husband describing himself as
trustee for the wife in payment for
such supplies, can be charged IN
equity upon the wifs's separate es-
tate, without clear proof that she con-
tracted the debt in her own behalf or
intended to bind her separate estate
for it's payment. The decree of the
Court below is reversed and the case
remanded, with directions to dismiss
the bill. Opinion by Justice Gray.

The Illinois SenatOrship.


SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, April 49,
Death has again interfered with the
plans of the Senatorial managers.
To-day representative J. Henry
Shaw, of Beardstown, Cass county,
was found dead in his room at the
hotel. He had been suffering from
heart disease, but Was able to take
part in the legislative procet dings.
It is believed that Governor Oglesby
will tomorrow issue a writ for a new
election. Dispatches were sent to-
night to the Republican members,
urging them to meet in Joint
assembly on Tuesday. The Nor.
rison men claim. however, that no
vote can be taken. Speaker Haines
says there will not be a full meeting
during the remainder of the session,
and the impression gains ground that
the Legislature will adjourn without
deciding the Senatorial election
Every one st ems at e tonight. 1t
will be at least three weeks before the
vacancy caused by the de..:h Of Shaw
can be filled, and the Democrats do
not want to force the fighting. Lo-
gan's friends are satisfied with the
complexion of affairs, feeling that
his election is only u question OF
time. Shaw's district is Democratic
by a large majority.

THE O'CLOCK BULLETIN.

Senator Chaffiee left the house at
9:l5 this morning. He stated that
the disease was spreading. The SEN
ator was with Gen. Grant an hour.
There was some pain this morning
attending the taking Of food. The
cancer in the throat was s~upperating.
The General seemed no weaker than
yesterday, and during the hour of the
Senator's call the patient coughed
only once, and then expectoration
of the mucous was accomplished with
difficulty. So long as the General
could take nourishment, the Senator
believed he would survive until the
gradual cause of the cancerous dis
a would produce death.
THE 2::2O BULLETIN.
Con. Grant was somewhat i'm
proved in his general condition since
the last bulletin. There was q slight
soreness of the throat during the
morning which was relieved by Co.
coalne. The secretion of mucous has
diminished and the cough has become
less troublesome. The patient walked
without assistance to an adjoining
room and sat in the sunlight. Pulse
and temperature unchanged.

THE LABOR OF RESCUE

in before the efforts were relaxed at
all. Once or twice the workers
fancied they heard cries for help,
but no person was found at either
time. At Z o'clock fire chief Reeves
thought he heard groans under a
heap of the second building. Gangs
went to work front and rear. At
half past 7 C'clcck a hole large enough
for a fireman and two citizens to
grope their way to the cellar was
made. A search with a lamp reveal

hours later, in the same place, groans

digging was resumed under
A STRONG CALCIUM LIGHT.
The policemen drew a line across
the street. 1t was said the missing
builder had been hurt by a flying
brick. When the buildings fell,
Charles Schwaz-r, bricklayer, was
standing ty him. Schwaze- had
refused, the week before, to work
longer on such buildings. AS the
dust arose, Schwszer turned to Bud

fist in the builders face, exclaimed :
"You ought to be hug for what YOU
have done here" Buddensick
made no reply, but limped away.

years since | was sitting inside the door
of shop to escape from the rain while
waiting for trap to take me to the
railway station in the old Etruscan
city Of Ferentino. Presently an i'll
bred dog of the pointer kind came and
sat down in front of me, looking up in
my face, and wagging his tail to attract
my attention. ''What does that dog
want?" | asked of a bystander. Sig
more, he ansW cred, che wants you to
give him a solid to go and buy you a
cigar with. ." | gave the dog the coin,
and he presently returned bringing a
cigar, which he held crosswise in his
mouth until took it from him. Sent
again and again, he brought me three
or four more cigars from the tobacco
shop At length the dogs demeanor
changed, and he gave vent to his impa-
thence by two or three low whines.
sWhat does he want now?' | asked.
''He wants you to give him two soldito

himself" / gave him 2-soldi piece,
and in few minutes the dog returned
with a small loaf Of bread, which he
laid at my feet. at the same time gaz-
ing wistfully in my face. HE won't
take it until you give him leave" said
the bystander. / gave the requisite
permission, and the dear animal seized
the loaf and disappeared with it in his
