A FLORIDA SIEGE.
What Came tf m Ratrlaawmlal Trade
•a the Bnwanee.
New York Sun Letter.]
As I oatne down stairs the other morn*
ing I saw Captain Frank Bams, a noted
hunter, seated on the edge of the stoop,
swinging his feet into a rose batih.
“Look here,'’ said he, “you think you
know something abont Florida murders.
The Lung aud Cochrane stories ain't a
patch to the beauties of the Buwsnee
untry. Out there they make a whole
s'll* business of it. Borne time ago two
lneu named Looklier and Mundy lived
nest the mouth of the Buwauee river.
They raised cattle for a living. Locklier
had an average looking woman for a wife,
while Mundy was a widower with a mighty
fine daughter. The two men got quite
thiok, aud used to cow-drive together and
eat in each other’s houses. After a time
Mundy took a fancy to Looklier’s wife,
and Locklier took a fanoy to Mundy’s
, daughter. So they struok up a trade.
After palavering around, Mundy offered
I to givo his duughter for Locklier’s wife
and twenty betd of CAttle. Locklier took
| him up straight, and the bargain was
made.”
I asked the Captain what kind of girl
\ the daughter wns.
‘Well,’’ he replied, “I’ve heard she was
a plump little filly, about eighteen years
old. Looklier's wife was a little skinny,
but she was a good driver and worked
well in harness with her husband. The
daughter never made any objections to
the bargain, and the wife, like most of
the women, was glad of anything for a
change. So Mundy drove off the twenty
head of oattle aud the old woman, and
Locklier shook himself down in the oabin
with the daughter. Things were all snug.
Well, in about two weeks Looklier's wife
got sick of it. She declared that her hus
band was bad enough, but ha was an an
gel alongside of Mundy. She went back
home, aud swore tbst she wouldn't live
with Mhndy any longer, under any cir
cumstances. Then Mundy came up to
Looklier’s house and wanted his daughter
back. Tho daughter, by this time, had
fallen in love with Locklier, and you
couldn’t have driven her oat of bis cabin
with a pack of dogs. Looklier said she
shouldn't unless the old man drove back
the twenty head of cattle. Mundy said
he'd see Locklier in bell before he brought 1 surprise, as the firm has been in businese
bnok the cattle, and threatened to about aiu08 1M4 „ nd hae had tho repuU tion of
! him if he dtdn t turn over his daughter. ’
Washington, June 16. — The Senate

New York, June 1G.— l he Post's finan

$ I in ten opted the Captain by asking
^ him what the neighbors thought of such
proceedings.
' “Well,” he replied, “they didn't have
'M many neighbor*. What they did have
were like themselves. They looked upon
the whole thing as a bona fide bargain,
and if one or the other got cheated it waa
no outsider's business. As I was saying,
Mundy declared war. He threw up a
a* sort of parallel around Looklier’s house,
and bombarded it with a double-barreled
being not only strong but very conserva
tive. There suspension now is caused by
commitments to Western railroads, with
which they have been identified, and is
made for the purpose of protecting their
general creditors and depositors.

Savannah, June 16.—The comer stone

was afraid to go out or even show his face Association in the park, waa laid this
at the window. For hoars he would sit
on a chair with his old rifle across bis
knees and watched the door. Whenever
the latch moved he would blaze away
without wailing to find out who was
coming in. Two or three times he came
near shooting his wife when she was out
after s pail of water. You see he knew
Mundy meant business, and he wasn't
going to let him get a twist on him.
Mundy skirmished around the house un
til dark. Thm be traveled home and
f ;ot a good night's sleep; but by day-
ight Locklier again found him eu-
trenched ouiside the door.
“ThisaAmgemeut lasted several days
and Locklier began to get tired of bis im-
risonment. One night he took a couple
of Btont oart wheels standing near his
abin, boarded them in on three aides
ith two-inch plank, and when Mundy
ut in an appearance next morning cou-
ronted him with this movable battery,
he tables were turned. The old man had

e road with his battery, shelling him at
iVery jump. Mundy was driven into his
headquarters, aud Jus' antagonist took
_ the part of beaciger. A dozen shots were
•^. exchanged before sundown, and at dark
t Locklier drew \jack to his house under
- * cover of the battery. Before the roosters
* stopped crowing he was again moving up
the road toward Mundy’s nouse, shelling
, his way every few rods, and driving the
old man and his shot gun to cover.
THE MOONLIGHT THAO ED 2.
“Well, the war was kept up in this way
about-a week, but at last it had to come t >
an end. Oue bright moonlight night
Looklier Ihocght ho would quietly w heel
t ‘'his battery up the road and soe if he
couldn t catch Mundy outside of his forti-

snatched his rifle and sighted it. They
fired together. Mundy fell dead with a
rifle bullet in his head, and Locklier turn-
» bled into his battery with eleven buck
shot in his breast. He lived abont four
hours, aud declared if he hadn’t been

ITALY*!
The Growth of the Masonic Order.
New York, June 16.—A letter from
Rome, May 30, says the Freemasons of
Italy have held in Home the present week
an annual election of administators| of
affairs of their order. It appears by re*
port that there is about 80 Lodges in the
Kingdom, and their number, as well
as initiations of members, is con
stantly increasing. The hostility of the
church to this fraternity, instead of bin*
doring its prosperity, seems to promote
it. Steps are about to be taken for build
ing a Temple or central plaoe of meeting
so os to perfect the organisation of the
order.

Paris, June 15.—The Assembly was
crowded with Deputies and spectators.
Gassimeri Pereces introduced the Con
stitutional bill prepared by the Left Cen
tre, end moved that its consideration be
declared urgent. He said the country de
manded a termination of the provisional
state. He urged union against Bonapart
ism and demagogues.
The speaker waa frequently interrupted
by the Kight, and warmly applauded by
the Left.
Lalloubaye supported the motion for
urgency. He said reoent events had
shown the dangers of the provisional
condition. Monarchy was impossible;
Empire would only lead to the invasion
and oppression of France. A Bepublio
wm the government of all, and its estab
lishment would inspire the oountry with
confidence.
Gen. Renohawinier and M. Raoul Du
val, of the Right Centre, opposed the
motion. *
M. DeKerdrel, of tho Right, warned
the memben) that if a majority of the
Assembly wm changed, Marshal MaoMa-
hon might oonsider it his duty to resign
the Presidency.
The vote wm then taken on the motion
for urgenoy, and it wm agreed to—jcm
845, nays 341.
All the Ministers voted against it, but
in their capacity as memben of the As
sembly only, the motion not haviog been
made.
The Cabinet question of nrgenoy hav
ing been declared, the bill wm referred
to the Committee of Thirty.
M. De la Rochefoucauld and Duo De
Bizaccia, of the Extreme Right, then in
troduced a resolution in subs tan oe m fol
lows, which wm read amid profound
silence:
The Assembly deolerM that the Gov
ernment of Franoe is a monarchy; the
throne belongs to the heal of the House of
Franoe. Marshal McMahon may assume
title of Lieutenant of the King Join, and
the national institu'ions shall be deter
mined by agreement between the King
and the National Representatives."
Great excitement followed the reading
of the resolution.
Rochefoucauld moved that it be refer
red to the Committee of Thirty.
The motion wm rejected by a majority
of 100.
The Ministers, with the exception of
M. Taillband, voted >gainst it.
The Assembly adjourned until to-mor
row.
It is stated that llocbefouoaold had re
signed his position as AmbasMdor to
Great Britain before introducing the res
olution.
The Bonapartist deputies held a con
ference before to-day's sitting, and came
to the conclusion it would be of no use to
introduce any counter motion against the
Left Centre.
London, June 1G.—The Times' special
dispatch from Paris oontains the follow
ing particulars of the proceedings in the
Assembly, in addition to Uat night's re
port :
M. Lambert and De St. Croix, support
ed by all the members of the Right* Cen
tre, submitted a bill providing that Mao-
Mahon’s power be confirmed, with the
title of President of the Republic* that
the Seoond Chamber be organized ; that
the right to dissolve both ohambers be
conferred on MaoMahon, and that his
successor be appointed by the two oham
bers in convention.
This bill was referred to the Committee
of Thirty, together with that of the Left
Centre.
The Times' correspondent adds : The
exact result of the sittiug is that the Com
mittee of Thirty now have received an
imperative mandate, forcing them to
promptly organize either the “Septete,”
without proclaiming the Republio, or con
stitute and declare the definite Republio,
under the Presidency of MaoMahon.
It is probable that the oommission will
organize “septete,” and the Assembly will
ratify the decision; otherwise the major
ity, hitherto with the government, will
shift to the left, whioh, in all probability,
would cause MaoMahon to resign. It is
not unlikely that in consequence of yes
terday's proceedings, some of the minis
ters will resign, but there will be no ab
solute ministerial crisis.
London, June 1G.—In the Cabinet
Council, held previous to the sitting of
the Assembly, Gen. Cissey and others
urged the Pres dent to seal a message to
tbe Assembly, reminding it of its prom
ise to organize his power, but a majority
of tho ministers were averse to snob ac
tion.
Ministers Cissey, Mngne, Grivart and
DeCasez voted in favor of De la Roch-
fouoald's motion to refer his monarchical
resolution to the oommittee of Thirty.
Deputies Blanc, Quinnet, Peysatz,
Daudiffret, Pasquer, and twenty members
of the Right Centre, abstain from voting
on Cassimer Perrin’s motion for urgency
on the Left Centre’s Constitutional bill.

Washington, June 15.—The statistician
