GOTHAM GOSSIP. The Clydes and Lorillard. NEW YORK, May 20.—In the suit brought by the Attorney-General of this State to dis- solve the Philadelphia and New York Steam Navigation Company, cf which Wm. P. Clyde, his father, Thomas Clyde,and Jacob Lorillard, are the chief stock holders, the two Clydes are accused of having fraudulently diverted the protits of the company to their own bene- fit. It is alleged that the company has not the legal number of stockhotders and directors, and that there have been many irregularities in connection with it. Lorillard supports the movement for the appointment of a receiver anda dissolution of the company. | TWO OLD LETTERS.

Yours, HORACE GREELEY. SHERMAN’S LETTER written from Georgia to an old lady The following is an ex- was friend in Baltimore. tract: My own heart beats as warmly as ever to- ward those kind and generous families that greeted us with such warm hospitality in days gone past, but still present in memory; and to-day were any of our old cherished circle, their children or their children’s children to come to meas of old, THE STERN FEELING OF DUTY would melt as dew before the genial sun and, I believe, 1 would strip my own children that they might be sheltered, and yet they call me a barbarian, bandit and monster, and all epi- thets that language can invent that can signify malignity and hate.

T., May 20.—Direct information from leading Indians in the Choctaw and Chickasaw nations is that the Indians are be- coming restive under the idea that the whites are about to attempt the occupation of their territory. Much uneasiness exists and the Chickasaws are much depressed at the threat- ening outlook. It is believed they are organ- izing an armed resistance to meet the armed invasion of the whites.

THE VATICAN AND DR. DOLLINGER, NEW YORK, May 20.—A letter from Rome says there have been a number of contradic- tory reports concerning the approaching re- conciliation of Dr. Dollinger with the church. The CASE is now reported to be this: Shortly after the accession of the present Pope, he caused a distinguished eccle-iastic to call upon Dr. Dollinger, and to express to him the sorrow with which the Pope had heard of his schism, and the hope that be would find grace to abjure his errors and to return to THE BOSOM OF THE CHURCH of which be had once been so faithful and obedient a son and so staunch and able a de- fender. Dr. Dollinger made a somewhat eva- sive reply. He spoke ofthe grief and disgust with which the course of his fellow schismatics had filled him, especially in the matter of the marriage of their priests, but still he did not find himself able to make an act of faith re- specting the decrees of the Vatican council, A few days afterwards he wrote THE FOLLOWING LETTER: „have nether written nor done anything | Invstery is litteda. which could have given occasion for such a rumor. Only three weeks ago I published a lecture in which I stated in so many words that nobody possessing a scientific culture of mind can -ever accept the decrees of the Vatican council.

HISTORY OF THE nur. On the afternoon of Thursday, July 11, 1878, a man and his son, while fishing in the Blue River. near the city of Seward, were startled by di-covering on the opposite side of the river the dead body of aman floating in the water nearthe shore. The alarm was given at once and a number of citizens came down to the locafitv, and, swimming the stream, attached a line to the body, by which it was drawn to the other side. Upon examination a bruise was found over the right eve, apparently made by some blunt instrument, and upon further examination a pistol wound @vas discovered in the left side of the breast. The bullet had passed in at the front, going through the left lung, severing au artery and a vein, fracturing ove rib near the upper end, missing the heart and out an inch tothe left of the backbone. The wound was one that must have been fatal, though evidently it had not produced instant death, and the blow tm the head had probably been given to finish the bloody work. The clothing of the dead man was examined and a small sum of money found there mn, to- gether with a postal card, with an communication written thereon, and address- cdto Mrs. Lizzie Munroe, Arkansas City, Colley county, Kansas. Also a letter, evi- dently from LUE DEAD MAN’S WIFE, addressed to My Dear George, and speak- ing of her failure to sell some property near Arkuahaas ¢ ty. and sending the love of two pinall boys.

Notwithstanding this damnahly convincing, though entirely circumstantial, evidence, ( ass- trom first to last, averred his innocenee. He said he purchased the team, giving an eighty-acre homestead right and vie cash The latter, he says, he borrowed Seward County Bank. This was Iie then declared that he had said this because he didn't think it was anv of his questioner’s business where he got. the money, but that the truth was he bad saved it from pension money saved by him. He accounted tor Munroe’s papers being found at his house by saying that he found tn Munroe an OLD ARMY MESS-MATE, and invited him to his house. While there, he had taken the papers from his pockets for the purpose of showing Cassler his Kansas possessions, and had carelessly laid them on a iable, and forgot to return them to his pocket on Sunday, after having purchased his team, Cassler had agreed to take him to Seward, that he might take the train. He thought fof the papers when he got near the city, bug told Cassier he might send them to him after he returned. Munroe was then taken sick, and went up town to get some medicine, and that was the last the prisoner had seen of him. He sup- posed he had taken the train, and gone home, until apprised of the finding of the body in the river and by being himself arrested. T * coroner's jury returned a verdict that Geo. L.
