FRIDAY, AUGUST 0,1SS0.
—Tlie population of New Yorkisrough-
ly estimated at 5,030,000; that of Ohio at
3,100,000; that of Missouri at 2,400,000;
and that of New Hampshire at 347,311.
—Mr. George Wilkes, editor of Wilkes’
Spirit ef the Times, and a Republican
since the organization of that party, says
be “will take pleasure in voting for Han
cock ifi a man without stain and equal to
the presidential station.”
—John T. Long, of St. Louis, one of
the most intimate friends o r Gen. Grant
in the West, and a leading Republican,
says he shall vote for nancocb, and that
he has many political friends who will do
the same.
—The coolest place in the United States
now is the signal station on the top of
Mount Washington. On Wednesday the
temperature ranged between 34 and 49
degrees, and on the day following a thin
film of ice was formed, the mercury hav
ing fallen to 31 degrees.
The census shows that in San Fran
cisco there arc 20,549 Chinese in a total
population of 280,000. This will surprise
many persons, who thought, from the
howling of Kearney and the yelling of
the press, that at least 100,000 Mongolians
were in the Golden City.
—According to the Boston llerahl Gen.
Butler’s friends say that he will not run
for the governorship of Masacliusetts this
year, but will make matters lively in the
Seventh district, wlierclie is to be the Indc-
pendent-Greeenback-Labor-Reform-Dcm-
ocratic candidate fer Congress.
Bro Wheat Cr.ors.—The Chicago
Times of Sunday, publishes dispatches
from a large number of places in the
spring wheat growiug section of the north
west, from which it appears that while the
spring wheat crop in northern Illinois and
Wisconsin is inferior, the yield in Minne
sota and Dakota will bo unprecedented
in quality and quantity. Good judges es
timate the product in Minnesota at 44,000,-
000 bushels. In Dakota, where the berry
is unusually large, a yield of from 15 to
35 bushels is expected. Harvesting is in
progress in many places.
—In the lar West what may be termed
the religious traveler is occasionally met
with—the perambulating parson or the
migratory missionary.
“Where are you going?” said a young
gentleman to an elderly one in a white
cravat whom he overtook a few miles
from Little Rock.
“I am going to heaven, my son. I have
been on my way for eighteen years.”
“Well, good-bye, old fellow! If yon
have been traveling towards heaven for
eighteen years, and got no nearer than
Arkansas, I will take another route.”
—Gen. Hancock’s letter, says the Sun,
accepting the Democratic nom'nation for
President, will be found elsewhere in to
day’s Sun. It is rather a statesman-like
document to emanate fram a “mere sol
dier,” as our Republican friends call him,
in the acknowledged absence of Judge
Black. It is as broad and comprehensive
as the continent, as elastic as India rub
ber, and as sweet as honey. Gen. Han
cock makes only one mistake that we
notice. He speaks of “all classes of our
people.” A true Democrat ought to
know that we have only one class in
this country, and that is no class.
The Healthy Dismal Swamp.- Ac
cording to a Virginia newspaper, the
Great Dismal swamp is by no means a
dismal place, but rather a charming and
healthy retreat. It is not a bog, sunk into
the ground, but, on the contraiy, it is by
actual survey fifteen or twenty feet above
tho level ground. It is an immense reser
voir that, in its vast sponge-like bulk, gath
ers the waters that fall and pours them in
to five different rivers. The swamp is en
tirely of green timber. Trees that fall,
instead of rotting turn into peat. There
is nothing to create miasma; all is fresh
and sweet. The air is pure, and the wa
ter, tinctured with juniper, is a potent
medical drink. Formerly tho planters
sent their slaves into the swamp to work
on account of its healthiness.
—The committee of the New York
park commissioners to select a site for the
Egyptian obelisk has selected as a site the
knoll iu Central Park lying southwest of
the Museum of Art, ou the west side of
the east drive and north ofGrayrockarcb.
At this point the ground is about 117 feet
above the level of the sea, and the top of
the knoll is about 30 feet above the level
of the drive. It is the intention of the
park commissioners to cut away the un
even surface of the rock, so that the rock
will be symmetrical. A carriage way and
a walk will be laid out around the base of
the knoll, and footpaths will lead up to
the base of the obelisk. Trees will be cut
down In order that a good view of the
monolith may be had from all points. It
is expected that, now the site having been
selected, the work of unloading the huge
stone will begin as soon as a suitable dock
can be found. The New York World is
delighted at the probable early realization
of its hopes in regard to the erection of
the obelisk in Central Park.
Unloading toe Obelisk.—'The Trib
une says it lias been at last decided to un
load the obelisk at the pier at the foot of
West Seventy-ninth street. Saturday af
ternoon the Desscuk was towed from her
moorings at the foot of Thirty-third street,
and the landing at the pier was made
about 5 o’clock, too late to accomplish any
thing further. The work of unloading
will begin to-day. Tho stones which com
prise the foundation and pedestal of the
monolith will first be removed. It is ex
pected that this will occupy a week or ten
days at least, as many of the pieces are of
large size and will require great care in
handling. They will be transported across
the Park on trucks rigged for the purpose.
Captain Gorringe, who will superintend
all the operations in person, thinks that
ths transportation of the foundation stones
will present no difficulties. Alter these
have been disposed of, however, the real
work of getting out the obelisk will
begin. In order to do this, the Dessouk
will go into a dry dock, where the obe
lisk will be removed by taking off the
sido of the vessel. It has not yet been de
cided to what dock the vessel will be take n,

The Letters ol Both Candidates Ac
cepting the Nominations Made at
Cincinnati. _
New York, July 30.—The following is
Gen. Hancock's letter accepting the Dem
ocratic nomination for the presidency of
the United States :
Governor's Island, New York City, July
30. Gentlemen : I have tho honor to ac
knowledge the receipt of your letter of
July 13th, 1880, apprising me formally of
my nomination to the office of President
of the United States, by the national
Democratic convention, lately assembled
in Cincinnati. I accept the nomination
with grateful appreciation of the confi
dence reposed in me. The principles
enunciated by the convention are these I
have cherished in the past and shall en
deavor to maintain in the future.
“The thirteenth, fourteenth and fifteenth
amendments to the constitution of the
United States, embodying the results
of the war for the union, are
inviolable. If called to the presidency I
should deem it my duty to resist with all
of my power any attempt to impair or
evade the full force and effect of the con
stitution, which in every article, section
and amendment is the supreme law of the
land. The constitution lorms the basis of
the government of the United States. Tho
powers granted by it to the legislative, ex
ecutive "and judicial departments define
and limit the authority of tho general gov
ernment; powers not delegated to the
United States by the constitution, nor pro
hibited by it to the States, belong to the
States respectively or tc the people. The
general and State governments, each act
ing in its own sphere without trenching
upon the lawful jurisdiction of the other,
constitute this union. This union, com
prising a general government with general
powers and State governments with State
powers for purposes local to the States,
is a polity the foundations of which were
laid in the profoundest wisdom.
This is the union our fathers made, and
which lias been so respected abroad aud so
beneficent at home. Tried by blood and
fire, it stands to-day a model form of free
popular government—a political system
which, rightly administered, has been,
and will continue to be, the admiration of
the world. May we not say nearly in the
words of Washington .* * The unity of gov
ernment which constitutes us one people
is justly dear to us; it is the main pillar
in the edifice of our real independence,
the support of our peace, safety and pros
perity, and of that liberty we so highly
prize, and intend, at every hazard, to pre
serve?
But no form of government, however
carefully devised, no principles however
sound, will protect the rights of the peo
ple unless administration is laithful and
efficient. It is a vital principle in our
system that neither fraud nor force must
be allowed to subvert the rights of the
people. When fraud, violence or incom
petence controls, the noblest constitutions
and wisest laws are useless. The bay
onet is not a fit instrument for collect
ing the votes of freemen. It is only by a
full vote, free ballot and fair count, that
the people can rule in fact, as required
by the theory of our government . Take
this foundation away, and the whole
structure falls.
Public office is a trust, not a bounty be
stowed upon the holder; no incompetent
or dishonest person should ever be en
trusted with it; or if appointed he should
be promptly ejected. The basis of a sub
stantial, practical civil service reform must
first be established by the people in filling
the elective offices; if they fix a high
standard of qualification for office aud
sternly reject corrupt and incompetent
men, the result will be decisive ingwem-
ing the action of the servauts whom they
entrust with appointing power.
The war for the Union was successfully
closed more than fifteen years ago. All
classes of our people must share alike in
the blessings of the Union, aud are equal
ly concerned in its perpetuity and in a
proper administration of public affairs. We
are in a state of profound peace. Hence
forth, let it be our purpose to cultivate
sentiments of friendship, and not of ani
mosity among our fellow citizens. Our
material interests, varied and progressive,
demand our constant and united efforts.
A sedulous and scrupulous care of the
public credit, together with a wise and
economical management of our govern
mental expenditures, should be main
tained in order that labor may be light
ly burdened and that all persons may
be protected in their right to the fruits of
their own industry. The time has come
to enjoy the substantial benefits of recon
ciliation. As one people we have common
interests. Let us encourage the harmony
and generous rivalry among our own in
dustries which will revive our languishing
merchant marine, extend our commerce
with foreign nations, assist our merchants,
manufacturers and producers to develop
our vast natural resources and increase the
prosperity and happpiness of our people.
If elected, I shall, with divine favor,
labor with what ability I possess to dis
charge my duties with fide’lty according
to my convictions, and shall take care to
protect and defend the Union aud to see
that the laws be faithfully and equally ex
ecuted in all parts of the country alike. I
will assume the responsibility, fully sensi
ble of the fact that to administer rightly
the functions of government is to dis
charge the most sacred duty that can de
volve upon an American citizen.
I am, very respectfully yours,
Winfield S. Hancock,
To John W. Stevenson, president of the
convention; Hon. Jno. P. Stockton,
chairman, and others of the committee
of the national Democratic convention.
Mr. English’s Letter of Acceptance.
Indianapolis, July 30.—Hon. Wm.
H. English transmitted the following let
ter of acceptance of the nomination of
candidate for Vice President to the com
mittee of notification to-day :
Indianapolis, July 30.—Gentlemen :
I have now the honor to reply to your let
ter of the 13th inst., informing me that I
was unanimously nominated for the office
of Vice President of the United States by
the late Democratic national convention
which assemDlcd at Cincinnati. As fore
shadowed in the verbal remarks made by
me at the time of your letter, I have now
to say that I accept the high trust with a
realizing sense of its responsibility, and
am profoundly grateful for the honor con
ferred. I accept the nomination upon the
platform of principles adopted by tho con
vention, which I cordially approve, and I
accept it as much because of my faith
in the wisdom and patriotism of the great
statesman and soldier nominated on
the same ticket for President of the
United States. His eminent services
to his couutry; his fidelity to the constitu
tion, union and laws, his clear perception
of the correct principles ot government,
as taught by Jefferson, his scrupulous
care to keep the military in strict subordi
nation to the civil authorities, his high re
gard for civil liberty, personal qglits and
die rights of property, his acknowledged
ability in civil as well as military affairs,
and his pure and blameless life—all point
to him as a man worthy of the confidence
of the people. Not only a brave soldier,
a great commander, a wise statesman and
a pure patriot, but a prudent, painstaking,
practical man, of unquestioned honesty;
trusted often with important public duties,
faithful to every trurt, and iu the full me
ridian of a ripe and vigorous manhood, he
is, in my judgment, eminently fitted for
the highest office on earth—the presiden
cy of the United States.
Not only is he the right man for the
place, bat the time lias’come when the
best interests of the country require that
the party which has monopolized the ex
ecutive department of the general govern
ment for the last twenty years should be
retired. Tbe continuance of that party in
power four years longer would not be
beneficial to tbe public or hr accordance
lvn, lias been favorably spok™ or.-rche with the spirit of our republican institu-
. . • v lions. Laws of entail have not been fa-

sides, it should not be forgotteu .
four last years of power held by that party
were procured by discreditable means and
held in defiance of the wishes of a major
ity of tho people.
It was a grievous wrong to every voter
and to our system of self-government,
which should never be forgotten or for
given. Many of the men now In office
were put there because of corrupt partisan
services in thus defeating the fairly and
legally expressed will of the majority;
and the hypocrisy of the professions
of that party in favor of civil service re
form was shown by placing such men in
office and turuingthe whole brood of Fed
eral office-holders loose to influence the
eleclious.The money of the people, taken
out of the public treasury by these men
for services often poorly performed .or not
performed at all, is being used in vast
sums," with the knowledge and. pre
sumed sanction of the administra
tion, ’to control elections, and even the
members of the cabinet are strolling
about the country making partisan
speeches, instead of being in their depart
ments at Washington discharging the
public duties for which they are paid by the
people.
But with all their cleverness and abil
ity a discriminating public will no doubt
read between the lines of their speeches
that their paramount hope and aim is to
keep themselves oi their satellites four
years loDger in office. Perpetuating the
power of chronic Federal office-hold
ers four years longer will not benefit the
millions of men and women who held no
office but earn their daily bread by honest
industry is what the same discerning pub
lic will no doubtfully understand, as they
will also that it is because of their own in
dustry and economy and God’s bountiful
harvests that the country is comparatively
prosperous, and not because of anything
done by these Federal office-holders. The
country is comparatively prosperous, not
because of them but in spite of them.
This contest is in fact between the peo
ple endeavoring to regain the political pow
er which rightfully belongs to them, and
’to restore the pure,simple, economical, con
stitutional government of our fathers, on
one side, and a hundred thousand Fed
eral office holders and their backers, pam
pered with place and power, and deter
mined to retain them at all hazards, on
the other. Hence the constant assump
tion of new and % dangerous
powers by the general government un
der the rule of the Republican
party, the effort to build up what they
call *a strong government, the interference
with (home rule and with the admininistra-
tion of justice in the courts of the several
States, the interference with elections
through tbe medium of paid partisan Fed
eral office holders, interested in keeping
their party iu power, and caring more fo(
that than fairness in the elections.
In fact, the constant encroachments
which have been made by that party upon
the clearly reserved rights of the people
and the States will, if not cheeked, sub
vert the liberties of the people and the
government of limited powers created by
the fathers, and end in a great consoli
dated central government—strong, indeed,
for evil—aud tbe overthrow of republican
institutions. The wise men who formed
our constitution knew the evils of a strong
gevermnent and the long continuance of
political power in the same bands. They
knew there was a tendency in this direc
tion in all governments and consequent
danger to republican institutions from tnat
cause, aud took pains to guard against it.
The machinery for a strong centralized
general government can he used to perpet
uate the same set of men in power from
term to term until it ceases to bo a repub
lic, or is such only in name, and the ten
dency of the party now in power in that
direction, as shown in various ways, be
sides the willingness recently manifested
by a large number of that party to elect a
President an unlimited number of terms,
is quite apparent, and must satisfy think
ing people that the t ime has come when it
will be safest aud best for that party to be
retired.
But in resisting the encroachments of
the general government upon the reserved
rights of the people and the States, I wish
to be distinctly understood as favoring the
proper exercise by the general government
of the powers rightfully belonging to it
under the constitution. Encroachments
upon the constitutional rights of the gen
eral government or interference with the
proper exercise of its powers must be care
fully avoided. Tbe union of tbe States
under tbe constitution must be maintain
ed, and it Is well known that this has al
ways been tbe position of both tho candi
dates on the Democratic presidential
ticket.
It is acquiesced in everywhere now, and
finally and forever settled as one of the
results of the war. It is certain beyond
all question that the legitimate "results of
the war for the Union will not he over
thrown or impaired should the Democrat
ic ticket be elected. In that event, proper
protection will be given in every legiti
mate way to every citizen, native or
adopted, in every section of the republic,
in the enjoyment of ail the rights guaran
teed by the constitution and its amend
ments; a sound currency of honest money,
of a value and purchasing power corres
ponding substantially with the standard
recognized by the commercial world and
consisting of gold and silver and paper
convertible into coin, will be maintained;
the labor and manufacturing, commercial
and business interests of the country will
be favored aud encouraged in every legit
imate way.
The toiling millions of our own people
will bo protected from the destructive
competition of the Chinese, and to that
end their immigration to our shores will
be properly restricted. The public credit
wilt be scrupulously maintained and
strengthened by rigid economy iu public
expeuditure, aud the liberties of the peo
ple and the property of the people wiil be
protected by a government of law and or
der, administered strictly in the interest
of all the people, and not of corporations
and privileged classes.
I do not doubt the discriminating jus
tice of the people aud their capacity for
intelligent self-government, and therefore
do not doubt the success of tbe Democrat
ic ticket. Its success would bury beyond i
resurrection tbe sectional jealousies and
hatreds which have so long been the
chief stock in trade of pestiferous
demagogues, and in no other way
can this bo so effectually accomplished.
It would restore harmony aud good feel
ing between ail the sections, and make us
in fact, as well as in name, one people.
The only rivalry then would be in the
race for the development of material pros
perity, the elevation of labor, tho enlarge
ment of human rights, the promotion of
education, morality, religion, liberty, or
der, and all that would tend to make us
the foremost nation of the earth in-the
graud march of human progress.
I am, with great respect, truly yours,
Wa. H. English.

Danyiele, Va., Augusts.—Last Wed
nesday the track of the Piedmont railroad
was obstructed by cross-ties fastened upon
it for tbe purpose of wrecking the train at
an exceedingly dangerous point known as
tbe State Line Trestle, seven miles south
of Danville. The northward bound mail
traiu, crowded with passengers, made a
marvelous escape from destruction.
The authorities employed detectives to
ferret out the guilty wretches, and yester
day detective Wrenn, of Richmond, arrest
ed two negroes employed as farm laborers
near the scene, but were formerly section
hands on the railroad. The evidence
against them is said to be conclusive,

against the section master for discharging

General Barrows’ Defeat—The Defeat
oi the Irish Compensation Bill—
Gladstone Better.
London, August 4.—The Viceroy of
India telegraphs the following report from
General St. John, under date of Candahar,
July 29th: Genet al Burrows inarched
from Kushki Nakud on the morning of
July 27th, having heard that Ayoob
Khan’s advanced guard had occupied the
main road three miles from the latter
place. The enemy’s cavalry appeared,
advancing from the direction of Hydera
bad. The artillery and cavalry engaged
them about- 9 o’clock in the morning.
Shortly afterwards the whole force of the
enemy appeared, formed in line of battle,
with seven regiments of regulars in the
centre and three others in reserve, 2,000
cavalry ou the right, 400 cavalry sfiid 2,000
irregular infantry ou the left, and other
cavalry and irregulars in reserve, and five
or six batteries of guns, including one of
breech loaders—the total force being
12,000.
The ground was slightly undulating,
and the enemy were posted in the best
position. Until 1 o’clock in the after
noon the action was confined to the ar
tillery fire, which was so well sustained
and directed by the enemy that our su
perior armament failed to compensate for
the inferior number of guns.
After the rifle fire began our breech
loaders told, but a vigorous advance of
cavalry against our left, aud of Gbazis
along our front, caused the native infantry
to fall back iu confusion on the Sixty-
sixth regiment, abandoning two guns.
On the formation being lost the infant
ry retreated slowly, in spite of the gallant
efforts of Gen Burrows to rally them, and
were cut off from the cavalry aud artil
lery.
This was at 3 o’clock in the afternoon,
and the camp followers and baggage were
streaming towards Caudahar.
After a severe fight in the enclosed
ground, Gen. Burrows succeedofon extri
cating the infantry and brought them into
lino in the retreat. No efforts would turn
the fugitives from the main road, which
is without water at this season of the
year, and thus the majority of the casual
ties occurred from the men falling from
thirst and exhaustion.
The enemy’s pursuit continued to with
in ten miles from Candahar, but was not
vigorous. The cavalry and artillery with
a few infantry reached tbe banks of the
river Argandale, forty miles from the
scene of action, at 7 o’clock tbe next
morning, many not having tasted water
since the previous morning. Nearly all
our amraunitiou was los£ as also were
1,100 rifies and two nine-pounder guns.
Our loss is estimated as follows: Killed
and missing, Sixty-sixth regiment 400;
Grenadiers 350: Jacobs’ Rifles 350; artil
lery 30; sappers 24; cavalry 60.
The Duranis have been expelled from
Caudahar. Provisions and ammunition
are plentiful.
London, 9:30 a. m., August 4.—Sir
William Jenner and Dr. Clark have just
see - . Mr. Gladstone. Their bulletin says
that i he patient passed a good night. The
lung congestion has ceased, and he is now
free from fever. Dr. Clark will visit the
patient at one o’clock and again this
evening. Sir William Jenner will not
visit him again.
Twenty-four hundred cotton operatives
at Rochdale have been locked out in con
sequence of a refusal on the part of the
masters to comply with the demand of the
weavers for an increase of wages.
London, August 4.—The weather is
finer and more settled. The vote by
which the compensation tor disturbance in
Ireland bill .was defeated in the House ot
Lords was not reached until half past one
this morning. The galleries were dense
ly crowded as they were also on Monday
night, and the announcement of the im
mense majority against the bill was greet
ed with loud cheers. Lord Caimes (Con-
seivative) spoke for nearly three hours -
against, tbe bill. The Times says he prac- ‘
tically disposed of every argument ad
duced bythe supporters of the biii, and
that a more thoroughly destructive speech :
has not often been delivered in parlia- ’
ment. »
The Times, in a leading editorial, says:
“The defeat.of the bill has brought an
embittered controversy to a close. Its re
jection by a large majority was fully
anticipated and the speeches in its favor
partook of the gloom and. languor of over
shadowing defeat.”
London, August 4.—Of the fifty-three
officers of Gen. Burrows’ force,twenty-one
were killed or are missing, eight were
wounded and escaped, and twelve have
arrived at Candaliar unhurt. This leaves
twelve unaccounted for, and it may,
therefore, ho presumed that though nomi
nally attached to Gen. Burrows’ brigade,
they did not accompany him. Gen. Rob
erts’force, consisting of four regiments,
will leave Cabul for Caudahar Saturday.
After its departure the British forces will
evacuate Cabul entirely, its further occu
pation being regarded as inexpedient, in
view of the possibility of new complica
tions. Three regiments of British and
native troops have left Bombay for South
ern Afghanistan.
Paris, August 4.—One hundred and
two amnestied communists arrived here
from Brest yesterday. A hundred police
men were at the railway station, hut
scarcely 250 persons had assembled to
greet the communists. M. Henri Roche
fort was present. Twenty-four other com
munists arrived late in the day. Le
Temps, summing up tho result of the elec
tions, sayS if the Bonapartists wefe igno-
miniously defeated, the Clericals were
even worse treated. The distinguishing
character of the elections was anti-CIeri-
cal. The attempt to move constituencies
by representing the religions decrees as an
attack on liberty signally failed.
London, August 4.—-There will be a
meeting of the cabinet to-day at Premier
Gladstone’s official residence in Downing
street. In the House of Commons to
morrow, Mr. Pamiell will’ask Mr. Foster,
chief secretary for Ireland, whether, in
view of the rejection of the compensation
hill, he proposes to employ the constabulary
and military forces of the Queen for tbe
purpose of assisting in the eviction of ten
ants who can bo proved to be unable to
pay their rents owing to the recent dis
tress in Ireland*
London, August 4.—A Paris dispatch
to the Times says the defeat of the Reac
tionaries in the elections for councils
general is crushing. The Irreconcilable*

Lille, Beausancon and other large towns
winch they contested. They wou one
oat at Bourges. Gen. Chanzy and sever
al other moderators are supplanted by
advanced Republicans. The Radicals are
already arguing the good effect that fur
ther , severity against religious coipora-
lions must have Ou the parliamentary
elections of next year; but the truth is
that the Republican successes have been
won, not because of, but in spite of the
March decrees. _
The Times this morning, commenting
on the rejection oftlie compensation for
rti«f.nrbance bill, says; We do do not see
— ■ . * tbe
how tlie House of Lords, ew.t. _
opinions expressed nofjonly by Conserva
tives but by a large section of the Liber
als, could have refrained from throwing
out a measure ofsuch character and pre
sented to them in such a way. We hope
the common sense of Irishmen, even
though some of them may feel disappoint-
ment at the result, will teach them to see
that no other issue was possible. Agita
tors may strive to twist the situation to
their own purposes, but they would have
done this in any event, and probably
with as much or as little effect.
Tbe Daffy JVeirs says: The defeat of
the bill puts weapons into tho h«nd3 of
the agitators, Whose movement both sides
equally deprecate and dislike.
The London correspondent of the Man
chester Guardian says: The rejection of
the bill places the extreme members of
the Irish party in some difficulty, as it
brings them into active sympathy with the
government, and the popularity of the
government is likely to be fatal to dissat
isfaction.
The "Pall Mali Gazette, ih a leading ed
itorial article thi3 evening, says: We shall
not have to wait long before the House of
Lords wiil have reason to consider wheth
er the disadvantages ofpassiugthe bill are
not outweighed a hundred fold by the
dangers of rejecting it. i
A Constantinople dispatch to the Times
says : The identical note from the ambas
sadors, demanding the settlement of the
Montenegrin question, which has been pre
sented to the Porte, requests the latter to
execute the compromise proposed by
Count Corti, Italian ambassador to Tur
key, within three weeks,or hand overDnl-
cigno to the Montenegrins.
London, August 4.—The Times this
morning says there is no use in disguising
the fact that the disaster to Gen. Burrows’
force was a very lamentable affair. First
ly, Gen. Burrows was guilty ot an error of
judgment, considering the weakness of
his force, in abandoning his defensive po
sition. Secondly, he appears to have ac
cepted battle in parallel order and not
to have attempted any maneuvering.
Thirdly, it is evident that the Bombay
Sepoys were of such an inferior physique
that they con’d not stand up to the stalwart
Ghazis, who bore down upon them sword
in band. Giving way to a sudden panic
they “mobbed” the Sixty-sixth regiment,
and caused an almost total annihilation
of that fine corps. The cavalry did not
seem to co-operate with much effect.
The sufferings of the troops in their unin
terrupted flight over forty miles musthave
been terrible, for the present season is the
hottest time of the year there, and they
had been fighting aud marching without
food or water twenty-four hours.
London, August 4.—The bark Laine,

London, August 5.—A Cape Town dis*
pateh to the Times says Sir Bartle Frere
has received official intimation of his re
call, from the governorship. The Earl of
Kimberly, colonial secretary, in a cable
dispatch, states that the action of the Cape
of Good Hope parliament in refusing a
conference on the confederation question
induced the government to advise tills
course. The news is regarded with great
concern here owing to the position of
south African affairs.
Constantinople, Augusts.—Abiddin
Pasha, minister of foreign aflaire, at an
interview to-day with Mr. Goschen, Brit
ish minister, informed the latter that
the Porte would settle the Montenegrin
question before the expiration of the
three weeks named in the identical note
of the ambassadors. Hanadi Pasha has
been appointed governor of Syria, vice
Midbat Pasha, who lias been appointed
governor of Smyrna.

New York, August 4.—Dr. Tanner
bad a large number of visitors to-day. At
half-past one this morning he had an at
tack of nausea and vomited. This left
him weak and he complained of a bitter
taste in bis mouth. Soon after he dratik
three ounces of ice water, and then slept
three-quarters of an hour. At half-past
five he had another fit of vomiting, but
seemed to feel better after it. ’At nine
o’clock he got out of bed, dressed without
effort and read a morning paper, in which
was a letter from Arkansas, stating that
the writer had wagered five hundred dol
lars that he would succeed, and promis
ing him half that amount if lie would
hold out. He then drank one and a half
ounces of water and slept foV thirty min
utes. Ou awakening he remarked that
somebody might have tampered with the
water. After drinking it he said “There’s
no telling what they would do. I under
stand some heavy bets have been made.”
At noon, when ho entered on the 38th day
of liis fast, his condition was about the
same as yesterday. His features were no
more haggard or pinched a.id he appeared
in good spirits.
New York, August 4.—x\n examina
tion this evening shows Dr. Tanner’s con
dition as follows: Pulse 7S, temperature
99 1-5, respiration 15, At 4:30 the doctor

vomiting, and became very weak in conse
quence. He took the usual antidote of
hot water aud was resting quietly at five
o’clock. .

ports show an immense Democratic vot°.
There was no regularly organized oppo-
sition in three fourths of the counties, aud
n«moor*t* count J y of
ficers with each other brought out all the
voters. The Democratic State ticket re
ceived the benefit of this great local strug
gle, and will have a majority of over
sixty thonsaud. The Greenback-Indepen
dent party were thoroughly organized iu
but oue portion of the State, and that was
in the counties composing the district now
represented by Representative Lowe, a
Greenbacker. Madison, Limestone and
Morgan, which gave him .majorities
two years ago, gave Democratic ma
jorities. this year; and the Greenback
State and county tickets will probably be
defeated in every county of the district.
The Democrats will elect all the judges

lators and county officers.

One man was injured and taken to the

light on her bow and was damaged so
that she had to be towed to tho city.
The steamer was towed to Jersey City for

if objects are stationary.]

To the Readers of the TplegfapS anoTtrwSS^
It is well known that hot weather brings sickness and that
the greatest care is necessary to prevent disorders even o>> the
part of those most healthy. "What there is in the heat that
should cause disease camot certainly be known, but cholera,
dysentery, debility, lassitude, vertigo, and many other sudd -a-
and dangerous maladies come every season and cause great suf
fering and thousands of d< ath». Few people go through the
summer without unpleasant symptoms. The mouth b cumeo-
dry and parched, the tongue furred with white, the pulse irr\>
ular, the head feverish, the body cramped and tbe Jimb3 swol
len and tired. Ladies especially, with their natural deliejey
and tendency tq female troubles, find the hot weather almost
unbearable; while little children are dying every day from ex
haustion and because parents neglect ’precaution and care. A
prominent and well known physician of New York asserts as
his positive belief that more than three-fourths of all so-called
summer complaints arise from disordered secretions, and that
these secretionary orgaus, which, by being out of order cause so
much trouble, are the kidneys and liver. The brain controls
tbe lifej-but the lower part of the body rules the health.
There is one. and only one known vegetable that will abso
lutely regulate and control the Mdneys and liver at all times
and thus prevent the many dangers of the summer. That veg
etable [a West India leaf,] is used as the basis of Warner’s Safe
Kidney and Liver Cure. It is pure, pleasant to the taste and
absolutely certain in its results. It keeps those who intelli
gently use it in perfect health, and cares those whose secretions
’ are deranged. For all urinary complaints of either sex it is in-
lallible. For all bilious troubles it i3 certain. For the het sea
son it is invaluable jind every person of care and intelligence
should not fail to keep Warner's Safe Kidney and Liver Cure
near at hand, and use it upon the approach of the slightest
symptoms. It may save your life or that of some dear friend;
it will certainly prevent much suffering. It is for sale by drug
gists in all parts of the world; be careful and take no other. “A
word to the wise is sufficient.’
