Each emigrant is to pay hia passage and deposit $5 on account for forty acres of land upon which he ia to nettle. Ten dol lars is also to bo deposited for each emi grant's support in case of sickness. The Pert Royal 8ociety k to furnish farming and building material. It contains 5,000 son. CbcvalUcr do Luca, the Italian Consol, thinks that this attempt will sue- used. Texas seems to him the best place fur bis conntrymen. A Dsrtcrr.—Brooklyn was in great agitation the latter port of last week. The City Hall was surrounded by ox- dtsd crowds, and the city offices did not present their usual array of public fnne- tioaanos. The truth was a deficit of lIMfOOO U4 Vwass In ritj tnassry, and Rodman, the I>eputy City Treasurer, had been locked up to answer to the charge of feloniously creating the rscnnm. Brooklyn has been in bad luck lately, and she spent a gloomy Sunday. Csuousa Mm.itart IjcamuTB.—Wo call the attention of our readers to the admrtiscment of the above institution, of which Colonel J.

A Delusion, man- of the Dom-ratic ami r.iu in Ohio, Pennsylvania anil feli ituxixig theam-lve.- uj-ui I favorable results from the D- falminationi of negro conventions agnimit the Radical party, bceanse, os they allege, it has neglected their claims to office. It is not a* very long since 187S, that the Liberals should forget tke delu sions of that campaign—how extimaivcly Mr. Greeley was going to divide tho ne gro vote—nor their profound mortifica tion when the votes were caonted. The negro voter is es .-ntiallv a bad voter. He is incapable of intelligent suf frage, and, if he has the intelligence and judgement to cast a sound vote, ho would never do it. He gravitates naturally to wards a stealing, corrupt and venal pub lic Administration, and will, as a general rul-, always vote that way. Democrats and Liberals waste their breath and deceive themselves by cSorts to conciliate negpo support and co-opera tion. It will never come. But the peo ple of the United States will not perma nently assent to a popper and salt admin istration of the government. They will never agree to put negroes in oScc, and when Sambo makes himself sufficiently noisy and troublesome in his scrambles for office, hia white allies will suddenly fiwrt m elvi . ,ir ; their negro followers juietly put under foot. Let thu Demor- ra ;y keep clear of negro politicians. Accobdiku to “ Hangman Foote,” Jake Thompson found himaclf, at the close of the war, with $200,000 of Confederate funds (gold) in bis custody, and pro ceeded to divide with Jeff Davis, Jmluh P. Benjamin and others. Tho story may lie true, but it will take better evidence than the unsupported word of Foote to make many believe it.—Springfield fh-jmi- laeim. True for you, Mr. Uowlea. Wo ore glad to sco that old Foote is so correctly approeiated up in Massachusetts. We havo no earthly doubt that the wretched old creature lie < —under a mistake in this, as in all other matt ers concerning Mr. Davis, Mr. Thompson and other gentle men of Mississippi whom he is now slan dering jn the Washington Chronicle for tho delectation of the Shack Nasty party at so much per column. Mr. Thompson, as wo have heard, ii in comfortable cir cumstances, but not by fixe mean < old Footo charges. The^atter only supposes Mr. Thompson acted ns he (Foote) would have done under similar circumstances. No, not that either. Footo would havo kept all the money. Southern Lands—Why so Low ? Before the war, says tho Richmond Dis patch, the abolitionists and Northern peo ple generally said that the low pries of Southern lands was caused by slavery. Well, wo now have freemen, and our lands are not worth one-third as much os they were during the existence of slavery. What do they say note ? Indeed, some of the richest Southern lands that fell into the negro's hands, and that have never boon returned to their real owners—the "Sea Islands,” for instance—have been so poorly tilled that they are grown into bush. And what do our censors say ? The Death or Shadbach Waub.— We liaro from Marshalvillo that Mr. Sho- drnch Ware died in that place yesterday swelling »t 6 o'clock*and tho funeral will take place from his residence this morn i»g st ten o'clock. He will be buried in the cemetery at MoraholTille. Mr. Wore was among the ablest and best citisens of Haem county—« man of sterling integ rity, great enterprise and wealth. Ho will be much missed. The London Saturday Review takes up tho figures of the United Stabs eon tus, and says that “adding to the local iaxation and indebtedness, the taxation and debt of the Federal Government, it is plain that per head the thirty-eight millions of citisens of thcUnited States are by far the most heavily taxed and most deeplj indebted people in the world.' A eaexxb at Lampasar, Texas, thought' itwss queer he had never seen seen white door knob in that State, and he put one on his front door. No sooner wss the job finished than the citizens began to fire at the choice target, and the barter retired to the cellar until the knob was shot off. His door opens now with string running through a bullet hole. Ms. Baibd, a wealthy Scotchman, has just given half a million sterling ($2,500, 000) to the Scotch Church for educational purposes. The money is not to bo sunk i* unsightly barracks, but to be. employed when it will do some good. It k the largest sum over given by a Using man ta charities. Graves of tho Virginia Presidents. A Richmond correspondent of the Cin cinnati Commercial writes as follows on thk subject. Certainly such a condition of affairs is not very much to tho credit of the Virginians: Monroe and Tyler are buuriod in Hollywood Cemetery in thk city. The plainest of cenotaphs covers the grave of the former and nut is eating off tho dis mal colored paint that onco protected the iron. Tylers grave is entirely unmarked on>l rank week* and tall grass luxuriate around it and obscure it from sight. The Legislature begged his family to allow his remains to do interred here and prom ised to erect over them a suitable monu ment. bnt the Treasury has been eo empty and legislators so engaged with other matters that no step has yet been taken in that direction. Thanks to tho ladica of the Mount Vernon Association the tomb of Washington at Mount Vernon, in Westmoreland county, k well cared for and is still visited by people from all ports of the world who reTcre the memo ry of the “Father of his Country.” Jeff erson is buried on hk old estate, Monticel- lo, near Charlottesville. The simple shaft that covers tho grave has been pecked and chopped by relic hunters, and grass and weeds are allowed to grow about it undisturlied. Madison sleeps at Mont- lelicr, in Madison county, and nothing ait a simple monument of cheap kind and poor design points tho curious trav eler to his resting pkce. Yjeabs ngo, the late Dr. Spring gave np hk active ministerial duties, and has since been settling into a semi-dotage. The it grief of his life was in the death of rife—hk life-long partner—soon after the war commenced. I never shall for get the touching manner in which he al luded to her dccoaso npon the follow ing Sunday from the pulpit, adding that lie now lived mainly in the hope (God willing,) of soon King placed by her side m the vault under the church. To the surprise of everyone. Dr. Spring, in li than eleven mouths' time, was off on a fresh wedding trip to Niagara Falk, hav ing married a venerable maiden lady from Hudson, New York, who declared that she had always lived in hopes of be coming his wife seme day, or words to that effort. People who saw the aged bride and l'ri*lo^rwm on their tour were much amused at the delicate attention which they showered upon each other. The Doctor affectionately addressed his new bride as “Birdie," and seemingly se cured in her possession a new lease of life.—New Tort Letter. But we sec it stated that he and “Birdie” separated many years before hk death, and never saw each other at all thereafter—and that the cause of the separation was disagreements and dis putes about money, of which she had the largest shore. Health or New Oblxaks.—A dispatch from New Orleans to tho Northern papers, dated the 28th. ulb, says: False and extravagant reports regard ing the health of New Orleans having Ken circulated elsewhere, Dr. C. 8. White. President ef the Board of Health, publishes a card, in which he says: “At this date, August 2S, only one cose of yellow fever is under treatment in private practice, and another case in the wards 5 the Charity Hospital. These are the only cases known to the Board of Health.” SrxciAi.

Rome is paying the usual penalty of progress. She has burglars who chloro form and rob her citizens. The Rome Courier is hot about it, Where it calls “journalistic egotism-” Itways: The egotism of some papers is abso lutely ilisgnsting. For instance, the At lanta Constitution of yesterday, in pre senting an article from the New York Evening Post, on cotton manufactures, introduces it with the following, in large letters; “The New York Evening Post Endorses the Constitution's Theory that the South is the Pkce For Cotton Manu facturing!” Tho Constitution’s theory, indeed! Does not the self-conceited ackasa know that this has been a theory icfare the Constitution waa even dream ed of? The Colombo* Enquirer of Sunday says Gur. Johnson, negro, was turned over to the sb eriff of Bibb county on Saturday, under authority of a warrant issued Judge Weems charging Gus with kid napping negro children of Bibb county last winter, and binding them out to parties in Arkansas. A xiwto man Mmwl fav sju. for many years employed ax n hand on a wood train of the Georgia railrovl, vsi run over and killed on that road It it week. The Globgia Rulboao Duvelopebs —Who They are, ano How Tuttr Ores- ated.—The Chronicle and Sentinel, of Sunday, has the Allowing with reference to the recent “irregularities” on the part of some of the officials of the Georgia railroad whose detection anil dismissal has been previously noted: She parties implicated in the defalca tions were H. L. Rhode;, General Freight Agent; P. W. Printup, Road Master; and A. S. Shipley, Supervisor. Other super visors and employes in the Road Master's department, it was said, had a “finger in the pie.” Rumor placed tho amount of the defalcations at a very high figure. Finally the following abstract of the auditor's reports was obtained from one of the director;. Mr. Carlton Hillyer, tho able and efficient Auditor, first made his reports to Superintendent Johnson, and they were afterwards submitted to the directors at their recent meeting. Both the reports are lengthy and full. Tho report in reference to the Road Master's department shows that the price of wood has increased in six years from five and three-fourths to nine and seven-tenths cents per mile run. The price of wood has been run up by favoritism and other opera tions withi vktives and friends of tho Road Master and Supervisor. A large amount of lumber lias Ken used for private pur poses—for houses, barns, etc. A large quantity of freight lias been hauled free for the private use of the Road Master and Supervisor. Wood has been cut off the company’s land and sold, without re turning proceeds. Tho Supervisor has acted as agent for a well known firm in Atlanta, and carried. a large amount of groceries to K retailed to the employees without paying the Georgia Railroad any freight. The Road Master and Supervi sor each hod several hands who were paid by the company, but attended exclusively to the private work of these officers. Tho amount paid for stock killed last year was aKut $12,000, while the amount re turned to the company for sale of beef, hides and tallow, was only about $200. The pay roll in 1807 averaged $17,000, but in 1873 it had risen to $34,000. Tha Rood Master has a mill at Union Point, built at the expense of tlie company, but operated for his private advantage. Tho Georgia Railroad carpenters and mate rial was employed in building a fish trap at Yellow river for the heads of the road way department. The Supervisor filled every office in his gift with rotations and friends. They farmed a sort of ring to control tho wood and cross-tie business. Tho Georgia Railroad owns over five thousand acres of land, valued at $130,- 000. The timber from this land lias been used in various ways for the private ad vantage of the roadway officers ; in some instances the land was even bought at a very small figure from the company. In his report Mr." Hillyer allows the Road Master some credit for system and accu racy in the management of his business, and the same for the Supervisors, but too many years of uninterrupted control has led them into the assumption of privile ges which from mere habit they grow to claim as their right. Tho Auditor's re port and accompanying evidence shows that tho General Freight Agent, Mr. R. L. Rhodes, seemed to have endeavored intentionally to throw freight matters fo ot confusion, so that there might bo a large amount of unclaimed goods. The General Freight Agent would pay the claims for these goods when presented and afterwards sell tho goods, making no returns of tho proceeds. This Eystomjhe regularly carried out, greatly to the a n- noyance of the merchants, and occasion ing great loss to tho company. He ren dered himself popular with some by granting improper favors and receiving presents. Mr. Hillyer, in the report, foes a full list of all the payments which e has been able to discover of proceeds from sale of unclaimed freight, paid by parties in this city to the General Freight Agent. . Upon ' King questioned by Colonel Cole, Mr. Rhodes was unable to give any satisfactory explanation whatever. On one occasion the Auditor took out of the General Freight Agent’s hand; the extra depot pay roll, without apprising him of the fact until after the pay roll was made out. In this way he detected tho General Freight Agent in entering fictititious names, so as to draw tho corresponding amount of money. A very large item of defalcation has been in the account for transportation of Uni ted States troops and army supplies. A statement was obtained from the United States Government of all payments made to the General Freight Agent on this ac count. By this means the discrepancy was brought to light, and has Ken ac knowledged by the General Freight Agent on this* account. The irregu larities commenced three or four years ago, and hare continued al most uninterruptedly until the commencement of the recent fovestiga- X in nr railroad accidents have oc curred within the past month in this country, nearly all of wluch resulted from fooompctency and recklessness. Some central supervision seems to be de- uiinded over this great interest, which 'hall institute a severe civil servioe re form among the employes. feats Sisson Hisbt Ballxni. the p vr who i* executing rope-valkin over the gorge cf the Niagara river on a cope fourtovn hundred feet leng. i-on- cludea hm performance by dropping one -undred and fifteen feet into the river.

It must K seen, however, from the above abstract of the Auditor’s reports, that the total amount cannot K a *sr,r small one. It k raid that the amount obtained by Mr. Rhodes from the claim against the United States Government, about three years ago and which after the deficiency was discovered and the investigation was pro ceeding. about a month since he asserted that he lost in Washington City, was $3,- 500. He afterwards appropriated, it is also said, a check for about $1500 be longing to the company, which he gave a< security for a sum of money bar-* rowed, according to his statement, to pay back the amount alleged to have Ken lost in Washington. It was also discov ered, by an examination of the books of Messrs: Bignon A Crump, auctioneers, that the general freight agent had re ceived from that firm $600 for unclaimed freight sold. Of this $600 only a small sum was returned to the company. When charged with Him, Mr. Rhodes said it had been paid out for the company, but not Ivfog able to produce the receipts, he obtained the sum mi-cg-i-, on thk ac count and paid it over to the company. The amounts of the other defalcations, we understand, however, the general freight agent had never returned. After some discussion, the board of directors referred the whole matte: to Colonel E. W. Cole, the general bigcrii:tender.t, with power to act. Colonel Cole took prompt and decided action in th. {.rem ises.

It was her first visit, not only to the county seat of her own county but the first visit to any town. She went around shopping and wondering and was in great fear of getting lost amoagst the intricate, high ways of the great metropolis.

Laet Thursday night one of the police men fo our city, while going his regaljir rounds, came upon a man lying in the street fo a moribund condition.

But fo spite of every thing that could K done for him the un fortunate nun died slout three o'clock yesterday morning. He did not at any time return to consciousness Kfore he died, and as there was nothing aKut the stranger's person by which he could K identified, it was utterly impossible to lerrn who ho was. The deceased was aKut five feet six inches to height, rather spore built. His most characteristic and remarkable feature was a heavy mous tache, of reddish color; his complexion that of a blonde.

He fell a distance of aKut six 1 eet, striking hia head on the rocks Klow, and breaking or dislocating the wrist and thigh. Some gentlemen near by, hearing him fall ran to his assistance, and find ing him seriously injured, one of them went for a policeman who secured a wagon, and, placing the unfortunate man fo it, took him to the Barracks whore ho was properly provided for. Jones, ehb Bane Robsee—A Glimpse at Him in Paris.—Most of our people remember Jones, the Christian Jones, who walked off with a few thousand dol lars Klongfog to one of oar banks and has never been heard of since, at least to K of any advantage to his inquiring friends. It was Kueved at the time of his disappearance that he had gone to Europe, and information received hero within the last few days proves that this was a correct supposition. A gentleman of this city strolled into the Jardin Ma- hille, fo Paris, aKut a month ago, to have a look at the can-can, where, great ly, to his surprise, the veritable Jones, the same Jones who was so good and vir tuous and pious in Savannah, confronted him. Tho amiable ex-hank clerk evident ly recognized our informant, and avoided him. They did not, therefore, have an opportunity for an exchange of compli ments, or Jones might have been inform ed how tenaciously lie sticks fo the mem ory of the Savannah people. And this fo tho Morning News of Sat urday ! Our readers will remember that last spring some eensatfbn was created by the exploits of a dapper young man (whose name was subscqudhtly ascertained to K J. B. Arnold) fo chloroforming and rob bing passengers fo tho sleeping ears on the Atlantic and Gulf Railroad, and on tho Savannah and Charleston Railroad. The young gentleman was captured sev eral months since and incarcerated fo the jail at Beaufort, where he has since Ken awaiting trial It appears, however, ho has some pretty active and ingenious friends outside who ore anxious to release him from "durance vile.” On Monday last a suspicious mail package was receiv ed at Beaufort, directed to "J. B. Arnold,” care of the jailor. Tho atten tion of the sheriff was called to the pack age, andsthfoking there was something leculiar aKut the contents, he pressed lis finger against tho end, and a perfora tion was the result. His judicial duty whispered to him to open that letter, which he did, and discovered some twen ty infinitesmal saws neatly rolled np. Upon opening a heavy newspaper pack age, ont came the handle or frame fo which to adjust said saws—the whole, a conceived plan to let Arnold out, which was luckily foiled. The saws were some four inches fo length, no larger than a cambric needle, while a few were aKut the sixteenth of on inch fo witdh.

As he could not stand well fo that position, he concluded he would lie down, which he did, still keeping his toot fo his month. In this condition he was found by his owner, and it took the combined strength of himself and another man to get the horse’s foot ont of his month.

SUNDAY DISPATCHES. Heavy Operations in Forged Bonds. New York, August 11.—Norton, who swindled several ftrm3 lete and fo Lan caster, Pa., by raised certificates of stock of the Philadelphia aid Reading Rail road, has been arrested, Some time since the }clice received in formation that a numbe of shrewd oper ator had been workinj on forged rail road stock to an alarsing extent, and that they were in leagtz with well known engrossers of certificate! Of this all the brokers were warned, bit this afternoon showed that the waniim was not heeded. A rumor was sprung lr Alicott & Co., of Brood street, wlio lad purchased a thousand dollar boiid isue of the New Y'ork Central Railroad fnm a man call- fog himself Leonard Brorn, carrying on business at No. 113 Broadway. To-day Brown called oi Alicott A Co., and wanted a loan on fixteen similar Knds. It was found pt a genuine bond was first purchased, nhich was sim ilar fo number to ono of tie Knds of the sixteen on which a loan w.s desired.' Ex amination was made and the discovery followed that tho sixteen bnds were for geries. The detectives then asertatoed that Worden Shennan, of No. flNassau street, was endoavortog to negolate a loan of $25,000 on $30,000 worth uf New York Y'ork Central stock, < uni lated issue, vith Bionv.es, Denny .1 Co., of Wall * re-1, for Mr. Brown. A detective of Shennan s saw Brown, who appeared impatient, and was walking np and down the office. Mr. Sherman en tered directly alter, and, handing Brown a Knd, told him ho could do no business to-day. Brown left, and was arrested by tlie detective, who found on him a forged $1,000 Knd of the New Y’ork Central railroad consolidated stock, and recovered two similar bonds which hid been left tor negotiation with Eddy t Co., No. 26 Pine street. Brown was taken to the Central office and locked up, and the detertive further succeded fo recovering sixty-two forged Knds similar to those found on Brown from two firms, tho names of which are kept secret. Tha police say ;hcro are a million dol lars of forged Knds rculy to flood Wall street, and that $230,000 dollars worth have already been placed on tho market. Astounding development! are looked for to-morrow.

The steamer Sallwell, which sank off Scotterie, belonged to New Castle, C. B., registered 1166 tons and was bnilt fo 1872: It is reported that forty American fish ing. vessels were lost off the north side of Prince Edwards Island, and that only eighteen live3 were saved out of all the crows, but none of late arrivals at this port credit the report. At Charlottetown, Prince Edward’s Island, the storm was very destructive to life and property. Tho crops are half destroyed. The destruction of fishing boats is unprecedented. On tho northern coast there wa3 a great loss of life. Six square rigged vessels were wrecked on the northern coast and the crews of two of them were drowned. Four American vessels fishing were also wrecked and the crews all lost. Dead bodies and wrecked material are floating ashore daily. Schooner Bonnie Doon, of Ragged Is land, was lost with all hands at Cape Cavendish. Tho ship Chnseoogas, tim ber laden tor Liverpool, is a total loss at Cove Head. Tho crew were saved.

Death of an Aged Editor. Savannah, August 31.—Jacob N. Car- dozo, who has been connected with the newspapers at this city and Charleston from the beginning of this century, died last night, agel 87.

Madrid, August 31*—The Carlists are again interrupting railway traffic, and de stroying the mails on the lines between Madrid and the northern frontier. The Cortes has, by a vote 119 nays, against 42 yeas, rejected a proposition to grant amnesty to the intransigent insur gents. During the debate upon the proposed President, Salmeron declared that he would never consent to grant an amnesty *to which justice decency and the honor of the Legislature were opposed. He had always denied the right of insurrec tion. The Government hfia presented a bill in the Cortes calling into the army all male* between the ages of 20 and 35 years. It is reported that the intransigent leader, Galvez, had arrested some of the members of the insurgent Junta at Car- thagena, but subsequently released them. The British Cabinet. Loj*doxAugust 31. — The observer, in its issue to-day, says the reports which have been current for several days that further changes in the Cabinet are about to occur, are premature, as no decision will be arrived at until the next meeting of the Cabinet, which will be held the lat ter part of September. It is probable, says the Observer, that the Marquis of Huntingdon will succeed the Bight Hon. Wm. Monsell as Postmaster General, and that Bight Hon. Wm. E. Foster will be come Chief Secretary for Ireland in place of the Marquis of Huntingdon. French, tie well known English jockey, is dead. DAY DISPATCHES. No Cholera ia New York. New York, September 1.—The post mortem examination of the body of an English emigrant named Edwards, who was reported to have died from Asiatic choler, showed the man to havo died of typhoid fever. The Bond Forgeries. The principal operator in the New York Central bond forgeries is one Charles J. Williamson, who is believed to bo identi- tical with the notorious Boss, and he ap pears to have been dealing through vari ous brokers to a very great extent, princi pally in New York Cent nil sixes of 1SN7 ; New Y’ork Central sixes of 1883, and Buf falo, Now York, and Erie first mortgage bonds. Williamson is an outside man, and whether all these bonds just men tioned are forgeries or not, or merely covers by which ho was enabled to issue forged bonds it is impossible to tell. Tho detectives think it advisable for any per sons who have bought any of these classes of bonds just mentioned, since the date of the last interest payment, to havo them examined at tho several offices of tho com panies and havo their genuineness at tested. It is reported in Wall street that a cer tain bank has been victimized to tho ex tent of half a million dollars with those forged bonds, aud it is further reported that an arrest of several prominent oper ators in Wall stroet may bo shortly looked for with refcrenco to this worthless paper. Since tho arrest of Brown, a large quantity of tho bogus bonds has been discovered aa follows: Found on the person of the prisoner, $30,000; found with one firm on Broadway, $30,000; with another firm, $92,000. It was rumored last night that other stocks had been counterfeited and that tho street to-morrow will tell. Williamson has the alias of H. H. Wil liams and is said to have been discharged years ago from the position of book-keeper to Brooks Brothers for peculation and forgery. Every effort is being made to secure his arrest. The W&\rassct Disaster. Washington, September 1.—The in spectors of steamboats have made public an official report of tho Wawasset disaster. They recommend the prosecution of tho Potomac Ferry Company, and the captain and mate and suspend the engineer. They charge against the Ferry Company carry ing more passengers than allowed, and tho employment of officers who did not bear certificates. The charges against the captain and mate are for accepting places without proper documents. Want of discipline is generally charged, and undue anxiety .on the part of the captain to save the boat instead of tho passen gers. The Secretary has referred tho re port to tho Solicitor General for his ac tion with a view to the prosecution of the alleged culprits. Schooner Wrecked. Norfolk, September 1.—The schooner Martha, of Bangor, twenty-five days from Mobile, with a cargo of timber, arrived in tow of wrecking steamer Besolute. The schooner sprang a leak during the storm on the 27th. When taken in tow she was four miles from the beach—the sea breaking over fore and aft. Went Over the Falls. Beading, Pa., September 1.—A boat coataining two men and a woman went over the falls of tho Schuylkill, near Kis- singen bridge. One man escaped. It is supposed the drowned man rowed over the falls purposely. The motive is un known, but ho had had a difficulty with the drowned woman at a beer garden. Distillery Burned. Patoka, Ind., September 1.—Bingham Bros/ distillery was burned to-day. Loss $50,000, including 150 bogs, 3,000 bushels of corn and 40 barrels of whisky. NIGHT DISPATHES. Horrible Tragedy in Missouri. St. Louis, September 1.—A special dis patch to the Republican from Sedalia, Missouri, gives an account of a terrible tragedy, which occurred at Knightly’s station, on the Missouri, Kansas and Texas railroad, six miles west of Sedalia, on Saturday last. It appears that Knightly, who has been laboring under a mental derangement for some time, killed or caused tho death of his sister Adelaide, aged 40 years; and his nephew, Louis Stobbs, set fire to the house and then killed himself. The house occupiod an isolated situa tion, and' when tho neighbors reached it, it was a mass of ruins. The charred re mains of Knightly were found near tho window with a partly burned shot-gun at his feet, and tho bodies of his sister and nephew near the # front door; but so badly charred that it could not be deter mined whether they had been killed by Knightly or were suffocated. The coro ner’s jury inclined to the latter opinion, although neighbors testified to having heard three shots fired while the house was burning. Horse Thieves Disposed of. The same special says two horse thieves were hanged by a mob in Benton county Saturday, aud another of the same gang has been asrested and is now in jail at Sedalia. Superintendent Widen, one of the victims of the explosion of the steamer Geo. C. Wolff, died hero yesterday. Synopsis Weather Statement. Office Chief Signal Officer, 'i Washington, September 1. y Probabilities—For the Gulf States east of the Mississippi light and fresh south erly to westerly winds and partly cloudy weather, with rain areas on the coast. An 11-legal Tender. The Treasury has discovered the exis tence of a very dangeous counterfeit of the $500 legal tender note, last series, 1869. So perfect is its execution that Treasurer Spinner declares it is calcu lated to deceive even the most practical, experts. The note was forwarded here by the Assistant Treasurer, at New York, who suspected it, but forwarded it to the Treasurer for examination by tho expert* of department. The differences between the counterfeit and the genuine issue will be given for the public to-morrow. Debt Statement. The debt statement shows a decrease of six and three-fourth millions; coin in the Treasury, eighty-seven and one-eight mil lions ; currency, twelve millions. Another Potomac Hirer Steamer Come to Grief. Fort Monroe, Ya., September 1.—The Steamer Ironsides, belonging to the Po tomac Steamboat Company, which has been running between Baltimore und Wilmington, went ashore on Hog Island Shoals last Friday ni/jht during a thick easterly gale and rain storm, and has gone to pieces. Her crew was taken off. The Cobb Brothers saved the furniture and tackle . Captain Carter has gone to Norfolk to get wreckers to try to save the engine and The * Ironsides wa* a, sidewi\eel steamer of about a thous and tons. Cholera in Kentucky* Cinc*{nati, September 1.—A letter frpm a prominent physician of Millcs- burg, Kentucky, say^ the cholera is fear ful. There were fifteen deaths in town this morning, and several other persons will be dead presently. Most of the vic tims are negroes* There been nearly i thirty deaths since Thursday last. The I letter is dated September 1st. The Trade in Italian Children. Nlw York, September 1.—The con vention of Italian societies, in session here last week, adopted a petition to Con gress, asking that body to effectually suppress the traffic in Italian children, which has been carried on so long by padrone*, and which is so shameful in character. The Bond Forgery. New York, Leptember 1.—Leonard Brown, who on Saturday endeavored to procure the negotiation of $3,000 worth of forged New York Central railroad bonds, was arraigned at the Tomb* Po lice Court tiu* evening. Wooster Sher man said he received the bonds from Brown to negotiate, and only knew i Brown from the Friday previous. Hol brook, of the firm of Eddy & Co., pro nounced bond No. 104, submitted to him, an undoubted forgery. Fatal Colliery Explosion. Swansea, September 1.—A colliery ex plosion t nia morning killed six men. Cholera. Wheeling, West Virginia, Septem ber 1.—There have been three deaths from cholera here since Saturday. Prospector a Naval Engagement London, September 1. — The Times this morning publishes further particu lars of negotiations between the British Tice Admiral Yelverton, and the Carta gena insurgents in regard to the removal of the Spanish iron-clads, Almanza and Victoria. Upon notice from the Admiral of his intention to take tho vessels, the insurgents answered that the forts would open fire upon the British squadron if the attempt was made. This was on the 28th. The ram Numancia was brought to an chor at the entrance of Escombrera bay, within range of the Lord Warden, the British flag ship, and the two vessels lay with their broadsides towards each other. The Lord Warden carries eighteen guns, and ia an iron plated screw steamer of 4,060 tons. The Numancia is an iron clad steamer, and carries forty sixty-eight pounders. On the 29th Vice-Admiral Yelverton replied that he would allow forty hours for reconsideration, at the expiration of which time he would take vessels. On tho 30th, Senor Aquillas communicated to Vice Admiral Yelverton tho hope of Junta, that tlio affair might be amicably arranged. No later intelligence has been received from Cartagena, but it is believed they will propose a compromise, by which they should consent to tho removal of tho Al manza and Victoria, on condition that they be held at Gibralter under the guarantee from tho British Commander not to surrender them to tho Spanish authorities until tho difference betwoen to the Madrid Government and the Junta of Cartegena is settled. There is little doubt that insurgents will attack the British fleet if they attempt to remove tho Spanish vessels without coming to bomo agreement. Ffirthcr from Cartagena. Madrid, September 1.—Tho members of tho insnrgent Junta, at Cartagena, already reported arrested by Galvez, one of their colleagues, aro Sauvalle, the in surgent Minister of Finance, and General Contreras, President of tho Junta. The latter was quickly released. Tho canso of his arrest is not known. SauvaUo is charged by Galvez with having altered iind falsified a communication of Vico Admiral Yelverton to the Junta. It seems that, in the beginning of the af fair with the British commander, Sau valle was named by tho Jnnta to carry on tho negotiations on their boualf. The Situation at Cartagena* Madrid, September 1.—Bear Admiral Alden has gone to Barcelona in the flag ship Wabash. Tho English residents have all fled from Cartagena, in anticipa tion of an attack from General Campos upon the insurgents. The provisions of tho rebels in tho town are nearly exhaust ed and the men ore marauding on shops and private houses to obtain food. . Among tho many reports circulated concerning tho intention of Don Carlos in the event of his success, is one that ho has promised the priests to re-establish tho inquisition. The Carlists- • Batonne, September 1.—Tho Carlist troops have entered tho town of Contari- zie, and are threatening Caspe, in tho province of Saragossa, which is garrisoned by a small body of Republican trooops. The Carlists claim that desertion from the Republican ranks aro very frequent, and most of the deserters take service for Don Carlos. MIDNIGHT DISPATCHES. The Leonard Brown Forgery Case. New York, August 1.—In tho case of Leonard Brown after hearing the testi mony of Messrs. Sherman and Holbrook, tho court adjourned until to-morrow, when Brown will be examined. Tho in vestigation thus far shows the forgeries are confined to New York six sevens of 1876, and Buffalo, New York, and Erie first mortgage bonds. About 126,000 of the latter, and far as can be ascertained havo been placed on the market. A report was prevalent on Wall street, that a bank has lost heauily by these for geries, and that a small broker firm hasc suffered to the amount of 10,0005 Jas. W. Johnson was yesterday arrest ed, having in his possession four $1,000 forged bonds of the Buffalo, New York and Erie roailroad. Capt. Walsh and betectivo Elder, who made the arrest, subsequently ascertained where Johnson had disposed of $26,000 in the same bonds. The assets ‘of City Treasurer Sprague, of Brooklyn, now in the hands of a con troller, amount to $200,000, and his seven bondsmen promise to make good any de ficit. Rodman, Sprague’s assistant, re mains in jail. Tax Collector Burroughs denies the charge of Warren, tho expert accountant—that moneys collected in his department have been withheld for months from the treasury. The forged Buffalo, Now York and Erie bonds sold by Johnson, arrested yesterday, were so admirably executed that they were pronounced genuine at several banks, the Stock Exchange, and the office of the Erie Railway Company. Even the printer of the originals was de ceived when shown the counterfeits. Captain Walsh, of the city police, lately discovered that conspiracy had been formed to launch upon .the market a great number of theso bonds, and a plan was arranged by which the organizers of the conspiracy, three in number, were to be entrapped this afternoon. The dis coveries of forged bonds Saturdayjfright- ened away the conspirators, and the plans failed. The officers, however, succeeded in capturing Johnston. Williamson, who attempted to negotiate the forged New York Central bonds Saturday, is believed to be one of the men who escaped. Sub-Treasury Payments. The Sub-Treasurer paid out to-day $107,000, on account of interest, and $G0,000 for called bonds. A Long Island Mystery* The terribly mutilated, body of a col ored woman and dead child were found to-day on the Long Island railroad. Fort Sill. St, Ipujs, September 1.—A letter re ceived from Fort Sill, dated August 24th, makes no mention of tho Indian troubles, or of apprehended attacks. Proj/osals were received to-day at army headquarters here for the removal of the wrecks of three blockaded runners sunk in Charleston harbor, South Carolina; during tho war.
