Mob Law In Ohio.
Cincinnati, November 8.—There is
great excitement thoughout Dsrko oonn-
ty, Ohio, over acts of violence recently
committed upon a number of residents
of that county. Seme months age a man
named Grier was murdered beside his
wifs at Palestine by a band of regulator!;
afterward a man named Qaackenbush
was ordered to leave and did eo. On the
8th of June last three men went to the
house of Steve White, colored, and kid
napped his eon William, whom they took
to Winchester, where he was convicted of
grand Iirceny and sentenced to
one year ia the penitentiary. He
afterwards secured a new trial.
At the game time the elder White,
received notice from tho Regulators
to leave the oountry, and not heeding
the notice, ho was shot dead in his house
by a large body of mounted men. The
Grand Jury found true bills against John
Archie, Jacob Baide, William Shumate,
Albert Dickey, S.lomou Ferguson, Oliver
Morgan and Robert Hart, for kidnapping
White. Yesterday Marshal Shoefer pro
cured assistance, and arrested the en
tire parly. William Shumate is worth
$50,000. Since the killing of White ten
prominent citixena have received orders
from the Regulators to leave the county,
under penalty of death. Mr. Putnam, a
colored lawyer of Palestine, received
such notice, and tearing that his life was
in danger, immediately left.

MIDNIGHT DISPATCHES.
Thu Southwestern Frontier.
WasniNOTON, November 8.—General
Ord sends with his report a letter from
Judge Paschal relating to tho alleged
attack upon a certain Lipin camp which
hid remained for over a year in the vi
cinity of Santa Rosa, a Mexican town
under tne protection of the town’s people,
who were profiting by the traffic of plun
der bought by the Indians from Texas.
Attouticu is called to the relations between
tbe Indians of this section, and several of
tbe Mexiosn towns, particularly San Car
los. These relations are peculiar. The
Apaches are n-nally at war with the pso
pie of both countries. They hare, how
ever, friendly leagues with certain towns
where they trade and resolve sepptfes,
arms, ammunition, eto., for stolen mules.
This la undoubtedly tbe ease with the
peoplo of San Carlos, who also have nmi-
oable relations with the Oomancbee, who
make San Carlos a depot of arms in their
annual excursions Into Mexioo.
It seems, also, that Chihuahua is not
receiving tho protection it waa entitled
to from the Central Government of
Mexico, made in an independent treaty
with tho Comanehes, the practical result
of which was to aid and abet the Iudians.
Such a condition of affairs, it is thought
by General Ord, wili be worthy the con
sideration of both the Mexican and tho
United States Gorernmente. An extract
is enclosed from the Pereordico Ojtiial of
Monterey, the capital of New Leon, and
headquarters of the military commander
of the army of northern Mexico. This
article, which is regarded as ex cathedra,
shows, says General Ord, that the In
dions we have so continually complained
of are a terror to the country. They
have always lived in an immense, uuer-
plored and rugged region contiguous to
tbe United States. They aro natural
robbers and murderers, and tbe Mexican
Government, notwithstanding that three
or four of its northern States were so
long exposed to and raided upon oy thorn,
did not or could not send any relief until
now. The article shows that these Indians
have reordered indiscriminately in Tins
and Mexioo, as has been reported by me
before. General Hanoook recommends
greater attention to the nfis practice and
thinks It would bs of advantage to tbe
aervioe If teams from the regular army
could be brought into occasional friendly
competition with tbe volunteer forces.
Governor Pope reports that Linooln
oountry, New Mexioo, in bis department
has for tbe lost twelves months been In a
disgraceful state of anarchy. The military
are prohibited by law from assisting iu
the preservation of pesos and therefore
compelled to 6tand by and see bouses
containing women and children, sacked
and many persons either killed or forced
to fly for'refage to Fort Stanton. This
state of things demands stronger than
civil authority for Its snppres.ion. Gan.
Pope deems it withia bis province to in
form those in power of a condition of af
fairs from which the changes of civil
functionaries are no remedy.
Ecfaula. Ala,, November 8.—Tbe
EasI AlabAtna Fair, which commences
here on the I2th met, promises to be tho

Hunter and Lizxie. A large number of
premium stock from tbe Atlanta and
Maccn fairs arrivid to-day.
Psiladxlfhia, November 8.—The an
nual report of tbe general committee on

Episcopal Church shows a continued de
cline in the receipts, and an appeal for

were aided by tho donations of loans.
Among the appropriations to the confer

The Virginia Vote.
Exciwsnd, November 8.—The Ninth
Congressional District is still in doubt.
It is difficult to obtain returns from
several counties in which they have no
railroad or telegraphic communications.
Ia eleven counties McMullen, Independ
ent Conservative and Greenbacker, leada
Richmond, Conservative, by fifty-seven

nendent Conservative, will divide the op
position vote with McMullen in the four
remaining conntica. thus ensuring Rich

not been received from the First District,

Foreign Newt.
London, November 8.—A Reuter tele
gram from Constantinople says Russia is
establishing a second line of defense at
AdriaDopte. Several prominent 'Parks,
believing that the attitude of the Bus
siaoe in Koumelia will lead to war with
England and Turkey, are anxions to con
vince Minister Liyard that the best
mode of fighting Afghanistan would be
to engage Rassia in Earopc. Tbe Sal
tan's immediate eutenrago, however, are
pacific. Several mimstere, and especially
the military party, favor a definitive ces
sion of a portion of Bosnia and Austria
so as to secure her neutrality iu view of
future contingencies.

Rellel—Fraud.
New Oelsans, November 8-—Since
the iaat report there have been two deaths
of tbo fever. The Hoard of Health will
takenoncteof new cases for publication.
Marshal Wharton is out of danger. The
Catholic Relief Association of New Or
leans, which wa3 organized to carry on
the work of relief after tho suspension of
the other charities, without respect to
race or creed, being pressed by applicants
and nearly outef funds, solicits further
contributions, which should bo mado
through Thomas Layton, Treasurer.
Tho citizens coatinne to make affidavits
against theDemccratic election managers,
charging them with frsndulenly counting,
ballot bex stuffing, destruction of votes
polled, etc. Tbe alleged frauds involve
tho titles of tbo Congressmen from the
first and second districts, aa well as of all
tbe successful candidates for the oity and
parish offices.
The Democrats made large gains for
Congressmen and in the Legislature by
making fusion tickets in many parishes,
by which tbe negroes were awarded such
offices a3 sheriff, police, justices of the
peace, eouBtable and coroner. Thb Re
publicans, however, ascribe the peculiar-
itiesof the coloredvote to intimidation,
citing the Tensas parish affair as a case
in point; also to tbe failnre to put'a reg
ular Republican candidate in the field.
Naiv Orlxans, November 8.—Tbe re
turns fiom 35 parishes give Burke, Demo
crat, for State Treasurer.39,730 majority.
These parishes gave the Democrats 10,-
000 majority m 1876. Tbe Democrats
assert that a large majority for Treasurer
was caused by the hostility of the colored
people to.Gardner.the national candidate,
who waB formerly a Democrat, and was
charged by tho colored people with be
ing connected with tbe killing of John
Gatr in 1874, while on tho other hand,
they believed Burke would sustain Nich
oil’s policy of conciliation and justice.

LIVE a REMEDY I g
Blood Purifier. Sill
TONIC AND CORDIAD.
This is not a patent medicine, bnt is prepared
under the direction ol Dr M W Case, from his
favorite prescription, which in an extensive |
practice of aver 27 years, be bss found most ef
fective in all cases ol disordered liver or impnre
blood. It is
ANTI-BILIOUS.
It acta directly open tbe liver, restoring it
when diseased, to its normal condition, and in
' iting tbe activity of this great gland every
or.-an cf the at stem ts benefited. It im
proves digestion and assists nature to eliminate
ail imparities from the system, and while it i
the cheapest medicine m the market it is also sn
perior tool] known remedies. While it is more
effectual than Blue U ass. it i3 mild and perfect ly
safe, containing nothing that can in tbe sligbte ‘
degree injure the *ysten. It docs not f;ckeai__
nvs pain,neither doesit weaken the patient nor
leave t be system constipated, as most other med
icines do.
