encountering any pickets. and the men,

named Burns, from Lexington; indeed,
he was in command. and him l ques-

was murdered. Burns cOrroborated the
condemned mans story, and this before
told him OF my reasons for making the
inquiry.

vance with W. on the Confederate camp,
but paid no heed to it at the time.
While | was talking to Burns, heard
shouts followed by the rattle OF car
bines, and, springing to my feet, saw
the rim OF the valley swarming with
gray-coated horsemen.
With my field-glass I quickly swept
the surrounding hills, and l saw Me-
Kee with the oncoming troops. Feeling
that had been tricked and betrayed, l
determined to get out OF it as best
could. With the instinct that comes Of
experience with such situations, my
men flung themselves into their saddles
and waited for me to move.

DISCONTENT IN SPAIN,

Explosion of Petards fin Barcelona
 How the Republicans are Enraged
 by the Defeat of One of Their Lead-
 ers-The Government Alarmed.
 BARCELONA, Feb. 6.-The conservative candidate for member of the chamber of deputies has been elected, defeating Senor Salmeron, the republican leader. This
 victory has greatly elated the supporters of the government. Puig, the conserva- tive candidate, according to the returns announced, received 5,974 votes and Sal meron is stated to have received 5,295 votes.
 The republicans are enraged at the result of the contest and accuse the officials who had charge of the election with tampering with the ballots. The republicans insist that Salmeron is duly elected. The con servative victory has caused popular dis content, which has been smouldering for long time, to break out in all direc- tions. The cafes and clubs are crowded with people who excitedly discuss the sit uation.
 Last evening two large petards were ex- ploded in public thoroughfare, causing a
 panic among the people who were in the neighborhood of the explosions. The gov ernment officials are thoroughly alarmed
 and are making preparations to resist a ties in this city and in other large towns
 have been ordered to hold the troops on the alert. It is also understood that the military authorities have been instructed | in the event of disturbances to act with promptness and vigor. In other words | any revolutionary movement is to be stern | ly suppressed by the troops.

LIVERPOOL, Feb. 6.-The British steamer Knutsford, Captain Harrison, which arrived here on February 1 from Galveston, collided in the river Mersey to-day with the steamer Drumhendrie, injuring the latter vessel to so great an extent that she soon filled and sank.
