this evening, he said the general dictated
to a stenographer for nearly an hour near
" enough matter to make twenty-five or
twenty-three pages of his book. He is
now debating the Appomattox campaign.
and from his dispatches and other data is
enabled to give a perfectly straight and
lucid account to the stenographer. He is
without doubt looking and feeling better
than he has been at any time since the LIST
of December. We are now almost GER
tain OF his complete restoration to health.
He will remain here until the list of July,
when he will go to Mount McGregor,
about eleven miles from Saratoga. That
is at present all the arrangements that
have been made. | have not had a chance
to know exactly what the doctors had to
say on Wednesday, but | believe their re-
port was n very favorable one. The gem
eral experiences no difficulty whatever in
swallowing or speaking and his improve
ment in the past few days is really phe-
uomenal.

ST. PETERSBURG, April 3O.@The Off
cidl Messenger publishes the following tel
egram from Gen. Komaroa, dispatched
from Askabad on Friday last: Telegram
f%orbidding the occupation of Penjdeh re-
ceived by me on March %. | only com
municated it to commanders of outposts,
and did not make it generally known.
Col. Zacrzcvski, with my permission, wac
interviewed by correspondence of some
British officers in a private capacity. |
did not admit their right to treat officially.
| addressed my demands direct to the
commander of the Afghan forces. Gen.
Alikhanof, with a sotnia of Turcomans,
rode in the direction of Morkals along the
river bank on the Russian side. 1t was
by no means myiintention to advance on
Penjdeh. To march a sotnia in the rear
of 1000 Afghans was inconceiyablc. One
company of Russians marched on the
right bank of the Murghab river. but did
not reach our videttes on the left bank Of
the same river. When the Afghans APP
preached, however, this one company, by
my order, returned to camp Gea.
Komaroff thus concludes this dispatch:
In view of the constant movements over
hundreds Of versts Of the territory, and
owing also to the heavy foods, it is I'M
possible to furnish regular reports"
BRussELs, April 30.-The hadepoid-
ence Belae's St Petersburg correspond

has been a fresh engagement between the

ter were repulsed. He asserts that the
report has been officially confirmed.
PARIS, April 3O.-The newspapers here
express the wish that peace may be main
tanned. The Temps declares that it is
Prince Bismarck duty to prevent the
catastrophe Of war between England and
Russia. If he permits a motal duel, the
Temps says it will be owing to uneasiness
at Russia's powerful proximity to Ger
many and to the fear of England's naval
supremacy. The liberal institutions Of
Germany as a peacemaker, may play a
noble part.
BERLIN, April 3O.-Orders, believed to

RAISING FUNDS.
A q Budget.

LONDON, April 30.-The forecast of
Childcrs of the deficit in the budget for
the ensuing financial year, which is esti-
mated at GA, 932, 1000, has created a c n
sation. 1t Is the largest deficit since the
Crimean war. Childers said it would re-
quire a great demand on the patriotism Of
the people. Foreign patent medicines
will be charged the same duty as those
manufactured in England, but the stamps
for the foreign medicines will be so al
tered as to avoid any appearance of the
medicine being English The govern
ment will guarantee a synopsis of the
budget. The interest of the income tax
to s pence will, it is estimated, yield e5,
100000; the modification of the probate
and legacy duties and other property
taxes, el5O,0O0 pounds; the duties on
spirits, 1000, 900; duty on beer ESQ, 900.
The remainder of the deficit will be met
by s%uspending payments toward n reduc-
ton of the national debt and the stopping
of the sinking fund and terminable an
nuities. The balance of the deficit,
amounting to s2,sl2,O0O, will be dealt
with next year.

CHICAGO, April 30.-Thc Louisville
express, on the Louisville, New Albany &
Chicago railroad, due here at 3 o'clock
this morning, was stopped near Harrods-
burg, Ind, shortly before midnight, by a
band of masked robbers. The latter were
on horseback, and compelled the engineer
and fremen to leave their engine. Enter
ing the express car, the American express
messenger was covered with revolvers,
and upon refusing to unlock the safe,
was shot dead. r e safe was then broken
open, but was found to contain only 800.
The scene of the robbery was among the
hills and stone quarrics, and the region is
thinly settled.
The American Express officials are un-
able to say how much money was in the
safe robbed last night, but think there
is not much lost. As near as can be ar
rived at, Davis had only about $4O0 in
his car when he left this city last night.
The agent at New Albany says he sent
out $1,000 by Davis from that place.
How much was picked up by him at way
stations cannot be said. but it Is not
probable that it will exceed 800. The
officials feel very bad over the murder OF
Davis, MS he was one of the most popular
and efficient messengers in their employ.
