Abo it five o’clock Sunday evening artneci men, with fierce, determined looks and fire-arms of every descrip tion, began to collect near the depot at Kildare, itnd to seek information con cerning :t strange negro, whom many, including your correspondent, had Men loafing around the streets during tbe d >y. In c mpany with the would-be lyn chers, the inhabitants ol Kildare turned oat cn masse in s arch for tbe murderer They soon tracked him to a house, but he had just gone and gotten into adese undergrowth. A cordon waa formed and he was driven out again. By this time it was dark, and a ne gro came to Marshal Galloway and lo cated the hiding place of the fugitive Summoning Wyckoff to aid him. Gal loway went to the negro’s hut and ar rested the murderer, after a short but desperate struggle. Galloway hid his man in tbe boshes and waited for acbanpe to take him to the locomotive which his assistant was beaming up. The mob, finding they had been •hrewdly cheated of their victiqi, start ed out tor Linden. Mat erased with Bquor and mad with vengence, they de lermined to wreck the train on its way back from Linden, and thus kill Gallo- *ay for taking their prisoner from them.

Lawson, CnogreBS man-elect from the eighth district, on being asked by tbe Banner as to the important measures to come up before the next Congress, replies in a very in teresting manner and throws some im portant lighton the state of affairs. the paramount issue. “Assuming that the Republicans in the next Congress, can do nothing to ward the enactment of their favorite Force Bill, I consider tbe reduction of the tariff,to arevolune basis as of pre eminent importance—as so paramonntto all other - questions that they canuot bear a favorable comparison with it The Democrats alone can not effect this half loaf is better than no bread * And if we can do no better, let ns take the half loaf now and the other half as early in the future as we can safely work up to it. Great results are sel dom achieved by a single effort; they are reached by successive gradations LEGISLATION FOB FARMERS. It goes without saying that there ought to be legislation favorable to tbe farmers. Tbe tariff laws bear up on them more oppressively than upon any other class; they depreciate the prices of products which they sell, and vastly increase tbe prices of artioles which they buy. A reasonable expan sion nf tbe currency would perhaps benefit them more than any other class Relief on both these grounds has been suggested above. But there are other practicable methods of relief which my space does not permit me to point out Let it be ' remembered by all that the control of only one House of congress by the Democrats does not put it in their power to benefit tbe CQuntry by positive legislation. The good they do is of a suggestive charac ter; they obstruct and prevent vicious legislation proposed’ by the Republi cans and this is all they can do.

Rio Grande City, Tex., Oct. 80.— Two of . the men who were shot at mid night, Oct. 10, at Guardado de Atrib ranch so summarily, by order of Gen eral Garcia, because of their alleged revolutionary proclivities, are now known to be Juan Bxzau and Jose An gel Vera. It is also settled that they were American citizens and voters in tins county. It is admitted thai Vera was not angelic by nature, though by name. But he died under a fusilade as a revolutionary suspect. Buzan was a brother of a lieutenant in the Mexican array who was on dn.y at the time of Bazan’s execution between Camargo and Matamoras. Last Thursday Lieu tenant Buzan left Ban Miguel, the ter minus of the Matamoras railway, for Camargo, commanding a detachment of soldiers. The detachment reported , at Camargo withodt the lieutenant, ! who crossed to this side a few miles be low here, declaring he would no longer remain in a service in which a general had so foully murdered his brother. John B.

New York, Oot. 81. —The campaign in this state is being waged with as much vigor by boih the DdJiooret* ;iud Re publicans as any one in recent years. ThS two parties are holding rallies and their orators ore addressing audiences all over the state. The Democrats are keeping the World’s Fair issue to the front, and the Republicans are fighting Tammany with equaled determination. The Evening world here says editorially that they are feeling happy at the state Democratic headquarters in the Hoff man house. The outlook for victory on election day is bright. From aU over the state news ot Democratic en thusiasm and confidence has come. The Evening Mail and Express said said that the situation in New York is hopeful. Fassett will be elected. Tam many will be defeated. The time for a change has come, and the people will have a change on January ]. So that it may seem that both par ties in the empire state are hopeful. Among the betting fraternity, however, wagers are freely offered on Mr. Flow er’s election at odds of $100 to $70. to submit all plans of new bnildiuge and repairs or alterations in old, first to the holy synod, which in these com munities is represented by the priest ot tbe Rpssian Greek chnrch for approval. This is the methpd pursued: The plan* aro submitted to the holy synod. If It is the intention to build a church or anything ebating $200 or $300 the synod recommen.ia that a building be erected costing $3,000 or $3,000. If repairs to timates are required to reach $1,000.
