PRECIOUS SCOUNDRELISM
Better Counsels Prevailing — The
President Refuses the Request
of “Rods** to Send Troops
to Virginia.
Washington, June 12.—Representatives
Platt and Stowell to-day oalled on the
President, and requested troops to be sent
to Petersburg, Va., for the protection of
cert dn officers, whose lives, they allege,
wore in danger.
On hearing of this, the remainder of
the Virginia delegation, with the exception
of Thomas, united iu a request to the
President that be would not order soldiers
to Petersburg, as they believed that, un
der the Marshal and District Attorney, t he
laws of the country would be enforced;
and if any one has committed an oifeu ce,
he wili be punished.
Ordering so’diers there, at this time,
would injure their State and do no earl hly
good to auy one.
Tho President declined to interfere in
the matter.
Waskinfftou Notes.
Windom's committee on tram-port*tion
had no quorum to-day, the members be-
iug engaged on other committees. 'The

tious to-day.

ing on tho stage near the coal oil lamp,
which exploded, aud at once enveloped
her in fldiues. She at once rushed among
the audienoe, causing great confusion—
most of them escaping by the windows
and doors. Her father, in endeavoring
to save her, had his hands seriously
burned. Physicians report that she is
dying.

Prospects of Civil War and the Tri
umph or Ihe BonapartlsU-Gam-
betta Btiack In tho Poce.
London, June 12.—A dispatch from
Paris to the Times says that the Left Cen
tro to-day will probably introduce a bill,
tbe first clause of which will provide for
the organization of the republic aocording
to tho bill of 1873 ; the second fixes the
date of dissolution of tbe present assem
bly.
The Gazette De France says oivil war
will be immediate in oonsequeuee of the
dissolution of tbe Assembly. It is gener
ally thought that in the event of a disso
lution, the Assembly before dispersing,
will authorize President MacMahon to
govern some months, probably a year,
without au Assembly, and will also au
thorize him to dissolve the next Assem
bly.
The crowd at tho depot Thursday eve
ning numbered 10,000 persons, who
clearly manifested sympathy with the
Bonapartists.
Paris, June 12.—A large and exoited
crowd assembled at the Western depot to
day at the time for tbe departure of tbe
Deputies for Versailles. Gambetta was
greeted wilh obeers and hisses. Tbe po
lice attempted to disperse the throng,
handling them roughly in some instances.
M. Lefevre, Deputy of the Left, was ar
rested, but subsequently released.
A tumult arose, and Gambetta was again
insulted. The police cleared the railway
station and ooaupied it the eutire after
noon.
Iu the Assembly, M. Baze demanded an
enquiry into these riotous proceedings,
which the Government promised to insti
tute on the return of the Deputies to Ver
sailles.
A Count struck Gambetta across tbe
face with a stick, for which he was prompt
ly arrested.
During this afternoon the excitement
among the members became intense, and
parliamentary business was much im
peded.
The Municipal Council of Bordeaux has
been suspended, for having permitted a
public demonstration of hostility to the
Government.
Gambetta .Struck bjr Count St.
Croix.
Paris, June 12.—Count St. Croix, upon
his arrest last evening for striking Gam
betta, told the police that the object of
tbe assault was to provoke a duel. The
Count was formerly an officer of Zouaves
of the Imperial Guard. Gambetta’s face
yet bears the mark of the blow given
him. Several persons iu addition to the
Count wore arrested by the police at the
railroad station at tbe time of tho tumult.
Tbe Deputies Insulted by tbe
People.
Paris, June 12.—Tbe scones of yester
day were literally repeated at the western
depot to-day at the time of the departure
of the parliamentary train for Versailles.
The populace again assembled in large
numbers, and tbe Deputies to the Assem-
,bly were repeatedly insulted and cheered.
The troops were ordered to the station to
assist the police to keep order.
ENGLAND.
Flours on tbe Cuba-Flrglnlus Affair.
London, June 12.—The paper laid be
fore the British Parliament in regard to
the Virginia affair was a letter, dated
February 20tb, from Granville to the Brit
ish Minister at Madrid, saving that Her
Majesty’s Government do not take tbe
ground of complaining of the seizure of
the Virginius, nor of the detention of her
passengers and crew. The real ground of
the complaint of Her Majesty’s Govern
ment bolds that even assuming the vessel
to have been lawfully seized and the crew
properly detained, there was no justifica
tion for their summary execution, after
irrgular proceedings before a drum-head
court martial. No possible aspect of tbe
character of the Virginius and her crew
could authorize or palliate such conduct
on the part of the Cuban authorities.
There was no pretense for treating such
an expedition as piracy, jure gentium.
CUBA.
Four Insurgent Colonels Captured.
Havana, June 12.—Tbe Insurgent Co
lonels Betaucaurt, Jenunez and Rogas
were captured in the Bay of Jiguey.
They were passengers on the Bark from
New York, which vessel they left in the
Babamia channel io a boat. They
brought correspondence and commis3ious
to tho Iusurgects which were thrown
overbourd before their capture. They
refused to confess the nature of their
commission.

Special to the Enquibbr-Sus.
Mobile, Ala., June 12, 1874.
There is positive evidence that tho Kel
logg clique, through an agent, offered n
professional assassin $500 to assassinate
your correspondent.
They fear my expose, and apprehend an
investigation into their financial transac
tion whioh is bound to result therefrom,
Such investigation will break the back
bone of the Kellogg administration.
I will remain in Mobile until Saturday

Prominent Incidents
IN TIIB
Histpry of Columbus
From Us First Settlement in 1827, to the
Wilson Paid, in 1805, compiled by John
H. Martin.
The undersigned proposes to publish, in a
volume of 150 or more pages, a work under
the above title, covering the period from the
selection of the locality for a “ trading town,*\
in 1827, to the capture and partial destruction
of the city by the Wilson Paid, in 1863.
The incidents will be derived mainly from its
newspapers, which will be gleaned for this
purpose wilh much care. R is believed that
most of our citizens would like to have such
incidents in this compact and convenient form,
and will encourage the undertaking to the
extent of the small amount asked for the work.
Each chapter will contain short biographic
cal sketches or notices of the principal citizens
mentioned in it, who have since died. The
volume will also embrace full information
concerning the churches, factories, &c„ now
existing.
We do not propose to publish this compila
tion with a view to making money, as the
small price asked for it will show. But at
the same time we do not want to lose money
by its publication, and therefore we wish to
limit the number cf copies printed to the de
mand for the work. With this object in view,
10c issue this prospectus, inviting those who
desire copies of the volume to send in their
names.
The price will be one dollar per copy for
a pamphlet bound volume, printed on paper
like the specimen sheet issued. A small
number of copies will also be issued on a su
perior article of paper for $1 30 per copy.
Payable when the work is delivered, which
will be some time next Fall.
