My anaestors belonged to Windham, Oonn., [applause] to Mu nich, Lebanon, Windham, and possibly to Putnam, Oonn. My ancestors, the Bnchards—my great grandfather,-I am told, was with the company whioh repre sented this part of Oonneotioat, and went to take part in the battle of Banker Hill; bat, my friends, there is not time for speeoh-making, and I am sore that yon will be glad to see those who have oome with us. Allow me to iotrodaoe ATTORNEY GENERAL DEYENS. The Attorney General said : “Fellow Citizens—I am very muoh obliged to President Hayes for thiB introduction, and am very glad to meet yon this morning. The demonstration was not unexpeoted. I am snre that from this time onward till he reaches the metropolis of Absw England the President will be greeted at every station in the same way. The heart of Mew England always beats warmly for the President of the United States, beoanse Mew England comprehends well that it was owing to the Union formed by the United States that we have be come a great and mighty nation instead of a mere oolleotion of individ uals, I am sure that the older spirit of our fathers still lives in ‘the sense of Mew England. [Applause.] The President will allow me to introduce a gentleman from East Tennessee who believes as you do in a united country and equal hnman rights —Jndge Key, the Postmaster General. [Applause. 1 THE POSTHASTES GENERAL SAID: t My Friends—It has been my fortune to have been born in a different seotion of tbe country than this. I oome from that part of the land of whioh you have all heard—tbe South ; and I am glad to meet here this morning so many of the loyal men and loyal hearts of Mew England.

I have the pleasure of introducing to you .a gentleman oonneoted with the adminis tration of tbe General Government, re siding in Tennessee. He did not agree with you and with me in the way of vot ing at the last eleotion, but at present he believes as you do, that this is a national, a united country, POSTMASTER GENERAL SEX. Then the Postmaster General was re ceived with cheers, and said: My friends, loyal men of the ancient Gom- monwealth of Massachusetts, I come to yon from a far off land and I trust that With me, you love our country, its flag, its Institutions and its liberty. [Applause.] The President will now have the pleasure of presenting to you one of yonr own dis- t tinguished citizens, a distinguished sol dier in the war for the Union—Attorney General Devens. [Applause.] THE ATTORNEY GENERAL SAID, I am very muoh obliged to tbe President and am very glad too see again the citi zens of Massachusetts and of my own oounty of Worcester. I am sure that T am no stranger here, for I have known yon in times past, and have known yonr devotion when it was neoesssry to main tain the Union by the sword, and now I bope tbe time has oome when all seek to sustain it by tbe aots of peaoe; when again the oitizens shall earn deserved happiness at the loom and the anvil. Most heartily, fellow oitizens, I wish you ■access in all your pursuits, and I trust we shall soon have a revival of bnciness that will make your valley again active with the musio of wheels and looms that Will give to every man an honest living and competency, THE PRESIDENT. I am afraid we are detaining tbe train too long, but will detain it a moment longer, to introduce another soldier and adopted citizen, Gen. Carl Sohuiz, the Secretary of the Interior. GEN. SOHURZ. My Fellow-Citizens: As the President has been pleased to remark, I am repre senting in tbe Cabinet that element of our population that came from foreign lands to share with you the blessings of liberty . and to perpetuate with you the great republio of the new world. Tbe President has assigned to me a department which a— |n some sense the care of tbe House affairs of the people, the Department of the Interior. I have to deal with the In dians; I have to deal with tbe pnblio lands, and with other questions relating to tbe development of tbe industry of country; I have to pay pensions as some compensation to the soldiers who so bravely stood in the front of the battle, to defend our country and came borne with the wounds on their bodies, and to the widows who sacrificed their husbands to preserve the integrity of the Bepnblic. I have to do with the education of the country, to whioh more than to anything else the African people ojre their position and I am happy to say that we now stand light have radiated more than from any other point of this great oountry of ours, for upon the soil of Mew England and in the great men of Mew England these infiunoea origi nated. To the President I am heartily grateful for the hearty welcome given him so early in the morning. I am glsd to see that on this oeoasion, as on others, the people of Massachusetts are le s early now. I do not desire to longer detain the train, though I should be very glad to introduce to you the Secretary of State, who wat the latest of us all this morning. THE PRESIDENT. We bid yon good morning.

London, June 26.—A speoial dispatoh from Vienna to the Timet has the follow ing : In Constantinople the agitation against ltedif Pasha, Minister of War, and all the military authorities is on the in crease. Saocess in Montenegro, so far from oalming this exoitement, has rather inoreased it, it being deemed downright folly, almost treason, that in order to gain successes at a comparatively trifling point the important theatre of war in Asia should have been so wilfully neglected. the Khedive’s movements. London, June 26.—A speoial from Al exandria, Egypt, says that the reporta recently published of the conspiracy to blow up Suez Canal,was based on anthen tio information.

A RUSSIAN DARE-DEVIL, Among the officers on the Grand Duka’s staff is a tall, handsome ms* with a lithe, slender, aotive figure, a olsar, blue ays, a large, prominent, well shaped noee, and a face young enough for a seooad lisa ten ant. It ia Skobeleff, the youngest Gen eral in the Russian army, the oonqneror of Kbokand? He has the reputation, even among the Huaaians, of being a mad man who would fling away hit own life and those of his troops without the slight est regard for oousequenoes. During tbs war whioh resulted in the conquest of Khokand, a Russian dstaehment of 800 man, with 400 Cossaoks, was compelled to retreat before a superior foroe of the enemy. Gm. Trotsky deeidedupone night attack, and oobOdea his plan to Colonel Skobeleff, then his ohiet of staff. The latter entered in the idea with great enthusiasm, and proposed to lead the at tacking oolnmn himself, and to take only 150 Cossaoks. Skobeleff, having reoon- noitered the gronnd, perceived that tbe Khokandians had enoamped within a mile and a halt of the Russians in an open plaip, whioh gave every facility for the maneuvering of oavalry. At iniduight he took his 150 Cossaoks, divided them into three parties and oantionsly surrounded the euemy’s camp. The party, led by Skobeleff him self, managed to pass the enemy’s ont- poats, who were fast asleep. Then be gave the signal for the attsok by firing bis pistol, and, followed by his >50 Cos- Hacks, be rode headioug into tbe enemy’s oaiup of 6,000 or* 7,000 mon, shouting and yelling like fiends, and outting down everything in their passage. For a quar ter of an hour tbe plain resonuded with shrieks and yellB, shots, the tramping of horses, shouts and groans, and all the up roar of battle. Then all was silenoe. Skobeleff assembled bis Cossaoks, and when morning came he fonnd that tbe whole army of the enemy, 6,000 or 7,000 men, had disappeared, leaving on the field abont forty dead, 2,000 or 2,000 mus kets and sabres, all their eamp material and baggage. But what was his aston- . ishment on oalling the roll that he had not ,*| lost a man either killed or wounded. Mr. MsoGahan, who first met him on the banks of the Ozus, relates this exploit to show how muoh method there ia ia this dare-devil's madness. THE SICK man's UNEASY THBONB. A correspondent of the London Daily Newt, at Constantinople, predicts that if the present Turkish government oan main tain itself it will make peaoe with Russia as Boon as the people have been sufficient- humbled by o-e or two oroshing Russian viotories. The Russians will be oon- tent with the aessiun of Batum, and of a portion of Armenia, and with the free pas sage of the Dardanelles, bnt they will be ooutent with nothing less. If they are very saooasBful and the Turks are very muoh depressed, they may demand a large portion of the Turkish iron-olad fleet. It it probable that they will be moderate, and equally probable that tbe Turks will be yielding. It will suit Russia, who has been striving to win Constantinople for one hundred and fifty years, to advance some ten or fifteen years nearer to the fruition of her wishes. It will Buit the peBent rulers of Turkey to get a fresh lease of power, at no matter what sacri fice. The diaoontent in the provinces, he oontinues, is immense. The entire provincial population is ready to demand the dismissal of Redif Pasha, tbe War Minister, and Mahmoud Damad, tbe Mar shal of tho Palaoo. The Sultan knows not whtrt to do with regard to these men. He dares not dismiss them; be dares not even aooept their resignation, lest he should lead the popnlsoe to demand still further concessions. On tbe other hand, be dreads a popular outbreak, which must be crushed with such cruelty as would still further alienate from Tur key the sympathy and support of the West ern nations. The thoughts of the people tnrn continually toward tha ex-BuItan Murad. They know that if his health is not absolutely restored it is greatly im proved. The wildest rnmors are In oir- onlafion as to the conduct of the present Saltan, as to [bis legitimacy, whioh is pnblioly questioned, and sb to his oapaoi- ty. Murad was deposed solely for as sumed inoapaoity. If be were to present himself to tbe pnblio his deposition would become a dead letter. ” ELECTION IN CHARLESTON, DEMOCRATIC TICKET ELECTED* Special lo Enquirer-Sun. ] Charleston, June 26.—The speoial eleotion for seventeen members of tbe Legislature to represent Charleston eonn- ty was the quietest kDOwn since the war.

Melville: Sir—I received your totter of eight pages and a half this morning. I oannot say that it muoh surprised me, knowing, as I do, how extremely ecoen- trio you are, nor oan I affirm that it did not make me open my eyes—thoee eyes yon have, in times gvue by, compand to •U beautiful bine things under the sun—a little, a very little. From the first day yon avowed your love for me, and I, aa I now perceive, foolishly oonf assed to a growing tenderness for you, I know you for c jealous, an unraaaouably jealous man. My oonain Arthur, you will remember, nailed upon manhunt aahoarafter yen had declared that I was yonr “life-star, and no aloud oonld ever dim uy brightness," or words to that etleot, and yet when Arthur, according to his wont sinoe our childhood, lightly touohed my cheek with bis lips at parting, I saw yonr faoe grow dark, and yonr eyes flash. With his departure yonr smile came baok again, and, after tnar, for a week or two, yon were bo kind, tender and sunny that I began to believe I had wronged you in thinking you a slave to the green- eyed monster. Then you sulked, yes, snlked—there’s no other word for it—the whole afternoon at Netta Haro’s birthday pienio, because Frauk Harn stole a rose from my belt and pieced it in his button-hole. It was not my fault that he stole the rose, any more than it was my fault that Eugene Rodman brought me a love song that very same day, and entreated me to learn it that I might sing it for him. Sinoe then you have boon angry with, and jealons of me, a hundred limeB, until, at laat, mv patienoe is exhsaBted. Albert Melville, a man who fears a ri val has too poor an opinion of himself to be manly. In your obarming epistle you also up braid me, as you have often upbraided me before; beoanse I refuse an engage ment ring from you, and will not promise yon unconditionally that I will bs your wife. I told yon most decisively tbe day I confessed to the growing tenderness, that I would not betroth myself until my fath er returned from abroad and gave his oonsent. From my babyhood, denied the oare and affeotion of a mother, I have loved my father above everything in the whole world, and his two years’ absenoe in Eu rope has not shaken that love in the least. He has always been to me the dearest and the best, and should I not be the rnoBt ungrateful ohiid a parent ever bad if I promised to give myself to one whom I have only known a short twelvemonths, ere he had seen and approved of my ohoiot? That be would have approved I am snre, for be looks at all things I love, the darling, with my eyea. As for yonr last soansation whioh forms the principal part of your indignant letter your f riend wat right. I wat at tbe opera night before last, and with a very handsome man, too. And he wat very devoted and attentive, and I did regard him with looks of approbation and pleasure. And, to speak frankly, Mr. Melville, I see no reason wby, even though I hate said, papa willing, I would marry you, I should make a prisoner of myself and shut myself out from all scenes of gayety beoanse you are not here to hold my fan and whisper nonsense to me. I loved yon just as well—better per haps; thought of you as tenderly—more tenderly may be, while the sweet strains of “Eroani’’ filled my ear and heart, as thought I had remained alone in my room, yonr piolnro in my hand and your last love verses spread out upon the table be fore me. How dare yon, sir, take me thus to task? You “think it better that we should part,” forsooth ? You “oannot trust your future to such a fickle, pleasure-loving woman?” In fsot, you are angry because the “star” re fuses to be olouded when yon are not near to see it shine! 'Twould be a pity to bind so loving, so loyal, so trutting a nature as yours to so inoonslant and light-headed a being as you tay I am. Yonr letters and yonr miniature await your commands. As for mine you may fling them into tbe fire. They are useloss since you no longer valne them. And, perhaps, yonr old fiarae, Lina Carrol, the demure, baby-faoed little thiDg, will again take you into favor, al though yon have strayed so long, and con sole you for your great disappointment in me. She would stay at home, were you ab sent, with half a dozen feminine and maseuline friends to help her pass the weary hours. Boms particular masouline would help her very muoh. And if ever you oould find it in yonr heart to frown upon one no fair and innooent, she would shed obild- Iike tears of regret that she bad unwit. tingly, of oourse, offended you and— make faoes behind your baok. “I know her tricks and her manners.” We were school-girls together. She would change her name for yours in spite of father, mother, nodes, aunts and oousins, and smile arohly, were he young and handsome, at the olergyman who per formed the marriage ceremony, and after she heonme “Mrs. Albert Melville” she would flirt boldly and openly and laugh your reproaches to scorn. But go to her. Such women as she were created especially for tbe punish meat of saob men as you. As for me, entirely free onoe more, I'll remain free—not forever ; ob ! no, de »rly as I love—I mean have loved yon. I'll wear no willow—but for soma happy years to oome, and when I do marry, I will marry a man who will trnst me any where, under all circumatanoea, always and forever 1 Josephine Villabs.

HOW A PBETTY GOVERNESS WAS PUNISHED FOR WEARING HER EMPLOYER'S JEW ELRY. From the Figaro.] The trial of a mysterious ca e has been concluded in the Conrt of AsBizea of tbe Ando. The aooused was a youug Eug lish girl of 19 years, Addie Margaret Travnor. She is a blonde, of elegant appearanoe, distinguished manners, and excellent education. Last year abe lived at the chateau of Bourigeole, the home of one of tbe most prominent families in that part of Franoe, the family of Les- onre. Tbe present owner of the domain is Madams de Lesonre, a widow, who had living with her last year an only ohiid, Henry, three years of sge. In Jnly, 1876, Madame de Lesonre sent to London for Miss Traynor to teaob the little boy English. Margaret soon acquired the en tire confidence of her new mistress by the ohsrm of her manners, her beanly, and tbe perfeot propriety of her demean or. The little boy bad, np to that time, been a very healthy, robust ohiid, rather precocious for his sge. On July lllst, when Margaret had not ‘been as yet a full month with the family, abont 4 o'olook in tbe afternoon, Henry awoke from his afternoon nap complain ing of burning thirst Ho was soon toss ing on hia bed in agony, and began to vomit. A violent fever seized him, and he breathed hU last before midnight. Immediately after tho boy's death, Madame de Leaaure left the obatean and went to the honse of her father, M. La- perrine. She took with her hor securities and some cases of jewelry, which she plaoed in Margaret Trnynor’s valise. The yonng governess seemed to be as incon solable aH her mistress. . One day in August, Madame do Les- nure, on opening one of the jewel boxes in whiob a costly Bet of diamouds should have been, was surprised to find the box empty. A suspicion flashed serosa her mind; Margaret alone bed had tho jewel boxes in her oharge. Bho returned to her ohatesn to see if her diamonds were safe. A magnifloent diamond brsoelet was miss, ing. Madame de Lesoure thou remem-’ bored that tbe governess had asked to bo allowed to return to England the duy af ter little Henry's death. Hhe sent for Margaret and aooused her of having sto len the jewelry; bnt the latter, although evidently troubled, did not cease to pro test her innooenoe. August 26 came, and on that day some of the servants fonnd on a frequented road, near tho obatean, a little' pnoknge containing the missing diamonds. The governess was sent for, and Madame de Lesoure's father told her that it was use less for her to deny tbe theft longer, oh he had seen her place the paoket where it was found. 8he threw herself at his feet exolaiming, “Forgive me, it is the first time I have ever done wrong.” Hhe was arrested. She insisted that she had never intended to keep the jewels, but had taken them to wear while Hhe had her photograph taken. A new and terrible snspioion now oo- ourred to Madame de Lesoure. “It this yonng girl, so honest in appearanoe, was a thief,might she not also be a poisoner?” She turned to Margaret and cried: “You wretob, you are capable of having pois oned my poor Henry. Ah, if it is so, I swear your head shall roll on the scaffold.” The phyaician who had attended tlio child, and who had attributed bis death to oholera, was sent for, and it was decid ed to have the body exhumed. Arsenio and antimony were found in the body. During the last illness of M. de Lesoure, the boy’s father, he had been treated with the “pills of Dr. Fapillard,” containing both arsenio and antimony, and s little bottle of these pills had been left in a oloset to wbioh Margaret Tray nor had had access. From the beginning of tbe attaok to wbioh the little boy suc- oumbed. Margaret had predioted a fatal Issue to his illness. On the other hand, what motive was there for suoh a crime. The proaeoution maintained that proba bly the governess had been detected by tbe ohiid in tbe sot of taking the jewels, and that she feared he would tell his mother. The trial was mostdrsmstio. Margaret denied with indignation that hUo had poisoned the child,and her counsel assert ed that it waa a question whether arsenic did not exist in a natural state in every hnman body. At 3 o'clook in the morn- ing the jury brought in a verdict of “Not guilty.” Tweed NuHIclontly l'unUlied. Philadelphia Times.] Tweed was the leader of the great mu nicipal ring of robbers in Now York. While in office he beoame possessed of millions of the people’s money, for which be gave nothing in return. Finally, de- E osed, the authorities proceeded against im by oivil aotions, and secured judg ments in favor of the oity for $6,000,000. The defendant could not pay this debt, and it was shown that the cause of his inability to disgorge was tho illegal tranafer of muoh of his property. For this he was put in jail, and he mnst re main there, says the Attorney-General, until he can liquidate. TbiH is tho only kind of imprisonment for debt that is allowed in New York, and, excopt that it is a sort of protection in this instance to tbe whole community, it wero better off tbe statute books. Aftor a while Mr. Tweed repents him of his bad behavior, and says, “Let me ont and I will pay over all tbe money I can raise, and help you to get the balauco due from other riugstors equally guilty with me, and now rnneb richer by reason of the immnuity they enjoy." One of his follows iu villainy, Sweeney, made a similar offor, and a compromise was patched up, whereon lie was released npou paying over $400,000, only a tithe of his supposed pickings, from tbe pnblio treasury; but Tweed's offer is ruthlessly rejected. All of this looks very muoh as if the authorities are willing to get bold of all the available cash while screening some of tbe offend ers. They seem to prefer reimbursement in part and immunity to tbe thieve', rather than a jnst and equitable settli ment, with coequal punishment for all tbe wrong doors. Tweed has suffered severe ly, if not enough, and there a e others who ought lo be sharing the prison with him, even if they were his subordinates in rascality.
