I I The Negro Difficulty iu Colum bus. From the Columbus papers of ed oesday we gather a few more particulars in regard to the recent affray in that city. The negro soldier who was shot did not die as was reported. He was hit three times in the arm, but no ahot struck him in the body. Mr. Lindsay was captured by negro soldiers, who were only prevented from killing him by a corporal. He was con ducted by them for some distance, when, it is alleged, he was rescued by the citi- I na. Mr. Crew, was knocked down by a musket in the hands of a negro, though seriously bruised, is not dangerously in* jured. Major Warner, who had his leg ampu tated in consequence of a shot fired at him from the barracks, is doing well. A gentleman and lady were also fired at hut without receiving any injury. The Enquirer concludes its account es the affair as follows : "It is said that one or two officers of the garrison, who had just arrived from the east that evening, returned in the same direction yesterday morning. What report of the affair they may carry to higher officers, or what recommendations they may have to make concerning the future garrison of this city, is not known. It is to be hoped that they were made acquainted with the repeated instances in which the troops have insulted unof fending citizens, some of them ladies, and the indignites to which several of our people have been causelessly subjected since their advent. ‘‘We did not see any of the troops on the streets yesterday; the presumption is that they were kept within their barracks by their officers. There was still consid erable excitement among our citizens; but, though all felt outraged by the con* duct of the troops, no one entertained a thought of resisting the authority of the Government. They felt that the conflict grew out of personal misconduct, which could not be approved by white officers, or by those in high authority. "The City Council, at its meeting held an hour or two after the conflict, appoint ed a committee to investigate the facts of the case and to lay them before the proper officers. This committee consists of two of the leading Union men of the State—one of them ex-Prov. Gov. John* son. No one can doubt that the facts will be impartially and truthfully reported by theDf and we believe that they will find the circumstances such as warrant them in earnestly requesting the substi ta’ion of white for colored troops as the garrison for this city.” From the Rio Grande. A New Orleans dispatch of the Sth gives the following from Brownsville of the 5 th: Gen. Wright arrived from Galveston on the Ist inst. Colonel Brown succeeds General We it* xel in command of the Rio Grande Dis trict. Colonel J. G. Perkins succeeds Gen. ral Smith in the command of the Twen« ty-fifth Corps. The United States Provost Marshal is busy arresting and disarming all par* ties in Brownsville and its neighbor hood. Colonel Reed, Gen. Crawford’s Adju tant, has been arrested for complicity in the Bagdad affair. Capt. Sinclair of the Liberal Army has been arrested on the charge of vio lating the neutrality laws. General Cortinas and his forces have left for parts unknown. It is reported that, before he left, he received from President Juarez the appointment of General-in-Chief of the Liberal army. Four piecies of artillery, taken from Bagdad by the Liberals and brought to Clarksville, were seized on the Ist inst and held by the United States Collector •f Customs. A French man-of-war has arrived off the mouth of the Rio Grande. Two thousand French troops are ex pected on the Rio Grande. An aid*de-camp of the Emperor Maxi, milian was at Matamoras on the Ist * that Gen. Canales is at 1 army; that Gen. besieging |A Terriific Scene* We find iu the Titusuille, Pa., Her ald, the annexed description of the ter rific scene which occurred at Beunehoff Run, in that State. Twelve thousand barrels of coal oil, besides numerous dwellings, barns, and outbuildings, all , on fire, at one time, must indeed have | been a terrific spectacle. Here is the ] account: ‘ About five o’clock in the afternoon, while some carpenters were engaged , in covering a tank full of oil at the Getty well on Bennehoff Run, sparks from the smoke stack were being driv en by the wind directly over where they were working, and oue of the men apprehensive of danger, went to notify the superintendent of the fact, but he had not proceeded far before the oil ig nited. The men on top of the tank beat a hasty retreat and escaped without in jury, and in a few minutes the tank burst, and an immense sheet of flame and smoke shot up into the heavens. As the firery stream rolled past, it attacked everything in its course, tank after tauk burst and all the inhabitants of the valley rushed to the hillside to prevent being swallowed up in a river of liquid fire. The stream continued to roll on until it reached within half a mile of Petroleum Creek; here it came in contact with a large aocunftlation of ice and snow, which stayed its pro gress. This, however, did not last long as the oil forced its way through the ice, but came out at the other side ex tinguished, and flowed on its course un til it emptied into oil creek. The scene was now grand beyond description; for nearly a mile one vast sheet of flame shot heavenward, and the dense blach smoke covered the whole country with a black cloud. The sun was now sett ing and the reflection upon that cloud rendered it first of a dark purple, then of a red color, and the peculiar rolling produced an endless variety of shade till at last it became dark and black as before. The bright blaze of the fire made every object distinctly visible after, and the hillsides were at one time so hot that an individual was heard to remark that if the infernal re gions were anything resembling it he never wished to visit them. Groups of houseless and panic-strik en women and children were wending their way to Petroleum Center, while gangs of men were at work with pick and shovel, damming the creek at vari ous points. The noise of the splitting rocks was like the constant roll of musketry, and as the burning fluid fell over the dam it produced a sharp, crack ing sound, like the discharge of innum erable pistols. The flames at one time completely surrounded and played upon the large iron tank containing 2,800 barrels or oil belonging to the Ocean Company. Had this burse, the town of Petroleum Center would that night have been laid in ashes. Good fortune, how ever, saved it. About 9 o’clock the fire . had spent itself, and the oil not con . sumed was on its way to the Gulf of ( Mexico. Saving of Lecbauical Power. The Philadelphia Press notices an in -1 vention pattented by a citizen of Phila* • delphia, Mr. David fEldridge. It con* j sists in the use of an anti-friction I wheel, or wheels, between the pullies of . belt-gearing. The saving of power by this simple contrivance is most wonder ’ ful, and would hardly be credited except upon occular demonstration. Yet a , moment’s reflection will show any one conversant with mechanics, that the principle is not only correct, but sus ceptible of almost indefinite application. The anti-friction wheels serves to trans* 1 fer the friction of the shaft from its own f journals to the rolling surface of the wheel, no matter how heavy the draught of the belt may be upon the shaft, the 1 whole resistance is brought upon the anti-friction wheel. . Mr. Eldridge has made a practical ap . plication of his invention to the gearing of a portable circular saw, worked by a treadle, and its results more than equal the most sanguine theoretical anticipa-j 1 tions formed of it. Two public trials of this invention, as applied to the saw, have recently been made before large collections of practical mechanics, and in each instance its operation elici ted the most enthusiastic commenda dation. The judges at these trials deci ded that it saved in labor in material at the rate of from three hundred to five hundred dollars per week over the hand-saw. Os course, any can see that the ap- E dication of this invention to the circu ar saw is only one out of innumerable instances in which it may be applied.— ’ In mills, foundries, machine-shops, fac tories, in short in almost all cases when i belt-gearing is used, this invention ■ must prove of the very highest utility. The members of the Cincinnati Relief Union, embracing some fifty 'of our leading citizens, have petitioned the Ohio Legislature to pass an act au thorizing municipal and county courts to rescue the children of drunken parents from the neglect, ignorance, and vice in which they are growing up, and to place them under the control of orphan asylums, children’s homes, houses of refuge, etc., for proper training, until of an age to take care of themselves. This the Legislature is asked to do in view of the fact that the vice and crime against which society has to protect itself, at great expense, grows out of such neglected children. They also ask for legislation making it lawful to im prison confirmed drunkards in work shops or other reformatory institutions. ffives an account of the trial 44 1 Williaris of that place, Hk A skeleton was found nar house and supposed ta be a nian narne, l Henry had been lost, sight of for ■ 'vious, and the eireumstan omdusively to .Mr. Wil of his murder.

SELECTED TELEGRAMS' Washington, Feb. 13.—Recent, re turns to the Government Land Office, show tha; at Detroit 5,587 acres were taken up in the month of January—a portion under the provisions of the home stead law, a part consisting of the cash | sale of laud, and the residue of county I land warrants. At LaCrosse, Wiscon- j sin, 3,688 acres were entered in law for j actual settlement. At Marysville, Cali- j fornia the cash land sales for December, 1 amounted to 83,007, aud at Oregon city, , Oregon, 2, 931 acres were taken for actu al settlement under the homestead law in the same month. A swindle concocted by a partner of a New Yorker, was yesterday exposed by Washington detectives The party called at the police station recently, rep resenting that his firm had been robbed of 812,000 in United States bonds, and that he believed the criminal parties were in this city. After a brief investi gation the detectives concluded they were being misled, and telegraphed for the other member of the firm, who duly arrived iu town, and was confronted with the complainant, whom he charged with the abstraction of the missing bonds. The result was the production by the 1 artful dodger, of 7,000 dollars of the i Stolen property. f During the week ending the 10th ult., < the disbursements at the Treasury De* i partment amounted to 84,407,982,37. I ’ During the same period the Department i issued certificates of indebtedness 1 amounting to §510,000, and redaAud ■ old ones to the amount of §3,000. The i receipts from internal revenue last week i amounted to the large sum of §4,774,- 115,05. The total National Bank currency is sued last week was $1,756,850. The total issued up to date is §3,116,380, New York, Feb 14, —The Tribune’s Washington special says : The United States Minister to England, Chas. F. Adams, will probably return home. It is supposed his place will be filled by Mr. Malley, now Minister to Vienna. Either of; these vacancies would probably be filled by Gov. Curtin. The Tribune’s special says : Great indignation is felt among the parishion* ers of Dr. Tutherland’s church, in Washington, because the Trustees con sented to the use of the edifice for the lecture of Fred. Douglas. The Post’s special says the Ways and Means Committee is considering the tax on whisky and cotton and the income tax. Report will be made very soon on these points. The Freedmen’s Bureau bill, having passed the Senate and House, will be sent to the President to-day. The friends of Mr. Van Dick here are very certain he will be appointed Collec tor of New York within a few days. Washington, Feb. 13.—Senate— Mi- Morgan, of N. Y., presented the credentials of Mr. L. E. Parsons, sena tor elect from Alabama. Mr. Morgan said : As the State of Alabama is one of the States that during the period of four years war, has been in rebellion against the United States, and as Congress has not determined whether the political condition of that State is such as to en title the State to representation ir. the ■ Senate; Ido not expect that Gov. Par* sons will be requested to come forward and take the oath at this term, and I would ask that the credentials be read and laid upon the table, to await the fur* ther action of the Senate. It was so or dered. Mr. Wade, of Ohio, offered the’ peti tion of colored soldiers asking the of suffrage. Mr. Saulsbury said the Senate and the country were very familiar with this word “colored” as applied to the negro v race. He would like to know what au thority there was for the use of that word. The only place he had ever seen it iu history so applied was in the his tory of St. Domingo, where it was used to denote mulattoes. Mr. Fessenden, from the Committee on Reconstruction, reported a joint resos lution to amend the constitution with a constitutional article as follows: That Congress shall have the power to make all laws necessary and proper to secure to i. all the citizens of each State the privi* leges and immunities of the citizens of the several States, and all persons of the several States equal protection in the rights of life, liberty and property. The resolution was o dered to bejirint. ed. Washington, Feb. 13.—House—Mr. Whaley, of W est Virginia, offered a resolution re affirming the Monroe doc trine and requesting the President to take steps for entering into alliances with all republics on tin's continent to resist French encroachmeats, which was referred to the Committee on Foreign A flairs. ( Mr. Smith, of Kentucky, moved that James N. Johnson, claiming a seat from Arkansas, be allowed the privi ges of the ball. I Pending the consideration of the ease, Mr. Stevens, of Pennsylvania,said it was monstrous to thus admit men as members from defunct States. Mr. Smith repudiated that idea, deny ing that the Southern States were de* funct. Mr. Kasson, of lowa, advocated the ad mission of Air. Johnson. Mr. Whaley, of West Virginia, sub mitted the following preamble and res olution, viz: Whereas, this House, at its last session, interpreting the sentiments of the American people, passed a reso lution endorsing the traditional policy of the Government towards the repul « lies of thia continent, and reprobating in unmistakable language, the erection of a monarchy upon the ruins of the neighboring repuMic of Mexico; and, whereas, the flagrant infraction of this American continental nolicy occurred while this nation was in conflict for its own unity, which conflict has now hap pily ended, therefore, Resolved, Ist, That this House do hereby reaffirm the resolution of the last session, and declaie that the estab lishment of a political protectorate by France in behalf of an Austrian over the Republic of Mexico, and the introduction of a scheme of policy which carries wi h it right to interfere in our own as well as the affairs of all the republics of this continent, is a measure to which this country can never submit, and which should be resisted by all the means in our power. Resolved 2d. That, to the end of mak ing good this resolution, the President | solicits the alliance of the Republics of this continent and use all the means in their power against such aggressions. Mr. Whaley demanded the previous | question, but the House by a vote of 13 | 1 to 95 refused to second it. , On motion ol Mr. Banks, the resolu- 1 tions wore referred to lhe Committee on Foreign Relations. [Special Dispatch to the Freaa an I Timer Knoxville, Feb. 13.—At a snlo of government property here to-day, Lieut, i Col. Dyer, late of the First Tennessee Cavalry, was shot through the heart by a negro soldier. The Colonel had pur chased some article* at the sale, and on going to pay for them, was ordered to stand back, and simultaneously shot. Soon after a large crowd gathered in front of the military headquarters and demanded the person of the negro sol dier. After finding him the crowd hung him to the branch of a tree until dead. The greatest excitement prevailed. Chicago.—The Chicago Republican of February sth, reports as "another mystery:” "At an early hour yesterday morning officer Prince, of the Third Precinct Po lice, discovered two human arms lying upon the platform of the freight depot of the Galena and Chicago Union rail road, just below State street bridge.’’ On which occasion the Cincinnati Commercial comments: “There is no mystery about it. Those limbs were undoubtedly ejected from a hydrant, and then blcwn about by the wind until found. It is only a short time since Chicago was startled by the discovery (we quote the Times') of dis membered portions of th< human body, which ware picked up in broad daylight, in the most crowded thoroughfares of that charming city. Discoveries of this sort—fragments of bodies in the streets, aud thumbs and fingers spirting out of the water pipes—however, no longer startle, or create even a ripple of excitement. The citizens think no more of picking up an estray index finger, or an unclaimed big toe, than they would of finding a cast horseshoe, or a truant hairpin. The limes speaks of finding ‘a pair of fingers’ lying about loose as ‘a insignificant affair,’ but it is of opin ion that the finding of a bundle contain ing ‘two human arms,’ freshly dismem bered, ‘the hands turned up to the shoulder,’ the whole tied up in a mosqui to netting (which it says happened the other day) is well calculated to cause an exclamation of horror to rise to the lips. If all this is true, Chicago must be a “deadly lively” sort of place. Manufacturing Statistics.—The fol lowing statistics are gathered from a state ment of the manufactures in the United States, recently sent to Congress by the Secretary of the Interior: Louisville is the twelfth city in the Union in population and manufactures. In manufactures there are 5,869 males and 990 females employed. The amount of capital engaged is §4,66;7,588, and the yearly value of the products §12,933,* 092. G’incinnati is the seventh city in popu lation and the third in manufactures.— Male bands engaged in manufactures, 23,192; females 6,309. Capital employ* ed $17,885, 735 ; value of products 46,* 436’648. St. Louis is the eighth city in popula tion, and the seventh in manufactures. Male hands engaged 8,645 —female 707. Capital emploped §9,205,205, value of products §21,772,32 3. Nashville is the sixty-seventh city in manufactures. Male hands employed I,* 176 —females 68. Capital employed $1,454,00 —value of products §1,857,590. Canada and the Reciprocity Treaty. * The Montreal and Toronto papers ex press satisfaction that the provincial delegates have not accepted the terms proposed for the continuation of the reciprocity treaty. One paper, the Globe, says: One happy result of the course adopted by the United States will be the speedy confederation of the Br’tish American provinces, the abso lute necessity of which will be now ap parent. With consideration will be carried out the improvement of internal communications aud throwing open lands to free settlement and the gradu al reduction of the customs tariff, open ing new markets, tne vigorous prosecu tion of the fishery and mineral entei prise, the opening up of the northwest, the commencement of an enlarged sys tem of emigration westward, and a re vision of the system of banking and currency. The people of British Amer ca need not doubt that brighter pros: pects in the future are before them. A Probable Ink Mine—The Cali fornia Zayrexs mentions something new It states that a gentleman recently ar* rived at Los Angelos from thejvicinity of Buena Vista Lake and the oil springs there, having in his possession a bottle containing “a mineral substance very much resembling crude petroleum, but without any smell, and possessing all the qualities of a fine black writing fluid.” J\ r ew _A_dvei'tisements.

Armed with it the Ind‘an bids a* fiance’’to the most deadly maiarH and handles, without fear, the m<>st venomous serpents. ]t Is a belief with ibt-m, that while there is breath in tbe body, tbe Cedron is potent to cure, no matter wbat tbe case may be. While Dr. Bull is not prepared to endorse this extrava gant pretension, he is nevertheless satisfied from a thorough examination of the evuiecce relating to its “ virtues, that as a remedy and preventative for al! ds oases arising from exposure, either to change of weather or climate, or to miasmatic influences 9 it stands ‘W'ltla.oTi.t a rival I And justly deserves the reputation it has in Central America and tho Wwk Indios. IN DYSPEPSIA. And its attendant train of symptoms it acts more Elite a Charm than a medicine, ahsre is nothing in the whole range oi Materia Medea that can fora moment bear a comparison with it in this diseasi. A full account of this wonderlul plant rnay be found in tbe 11th edition of the United S ates Diepensitory, pages 1387 and 1888. A series 01 experiments in which Dr. Bull has been for years engaged, has just been br ugbl to a successful termination, and he is now enabled to off jr the public a •ombinatiun of Cedron with other approved tonics, the whole preserved in the best quality ot copper distill ed B mrbon Wnisky, which he is confident has no equal , in tne world. - He might furnish a volume ot certificates, but lhe public have long since learned to estimate such things by their true value. The safest plan is, for everyone l to test lor himself tbe virtues of u new medicine. GIVE THE Cedron Bitters One trial and you will never use any others.
