KAIM E EXECUTED. The Cause of the Murder Always to Remain a Mystery. Philadelphia. Pa., July 7. James Kane was hanged this morning. The crime for which Kane was executed was committed on the night of January 11th in a saloon kept by the murderer and Albert Fox. Albert Kane, a younger brother of the pris oner, wa« shot in the breast so that he lived but a few hours. He refused to say who I shot him. While there was no doubt as to the guilt of James, the cause of the shooting not brought out at the trial, but it was gen believed that the brothers quarrelled over Amanda Cross, the murderer’s mistress. Both were drunk, and being desperate 1 men murder followed naturally from the col lision. It is reported that Kane denies that the woman w as the cause of the shooting, and says that only his spiritual advisor shall ever know the true story of the murder. Kane was one of the last of a numerous gang which has been gradually exterminated by members being sent to the gallows and peni tentiary and by murdering each other. Kane killed James Doughty, one of the gang, in 1872, and served seven years for man slaughter He was under bail upon the barge of passing counterfeit money when he murdered his brother.

STKIKK nOBK The Chicago Car Drivers and Conduc tors Compromise With the Company aud will Return to Work. Chicago. July 7. Notwithstanding the riotous demorstr&ti«n yesterday afternoon the West Division Street Railway Co. sent out thirty-two of it» cars at 7.30 o'clock this morning on Madison, Randolph. Lake and Van Buren street line?*. Six or eight policemeu wt-ut with each car, while the streets are patrolled by a heavy re serve force. The early down-town cars were all well patronized, ladies and working girls constituting the bulk of the psssengers. Out wardly everything is quiet along the several street car routes crowds not being permitted to assemble. Car driver Wallace Chaffee, who was assaulted by the mob Monday even ing, is at the county hospital in a precarious condition. Light persons have been ar rested for participating in the disturbance of Monday. Fending a settlement of the strike the residents of the West Division are de-: pendent very largely upon express wagons j and other improvised conveyances by which to reach the business portion of the city, and are compelled to pay ten cents fare. The Times is the only paper that has ex pressed any decisive views towards ending the present street car strike. It says this morning: “There can be no question that the blockade should be broken at once, at whatever cost. The spa??modic movement of a few cars loaded with police will not ac complish this most important result, for it is well understood that the people will not travel on cars under such conditions. Per sons who care lor their own safety will not i take risk**, and the number of those willing to pay for a ride with the chance of having their heads broken, or fighting their wav through, is exceedingly small. If it be true, as has been said, that the police force is in sufficient in numbers to irnure the absolute safety of citizens travelling by any convey ance upon the streets of the city, then it is manifestly the duty of somebody to invoke higher and more efficacious power The State maintains militia of some strength which should have been called upon long ago and i if this is not sufficient for the purpose then the aid of the National arm should be invoked, i It would he cheaper for Chicago to pay the j cost of lining every car street with soldiers than to suffer for another day the calamity it ha*? endured lor a week.” The men arrested for participating in the attack upon the street cars yesterday were arraigned this morning and the cases con tinued until the 16th inst. James Kennedy, charged w ith having made a murderous as sault upon the injured conductor, Chaffee, was held in #10,000 hail Up to twelve o’clock no violence of any kind has been re ported today. 11 A. M.—President Kleckner and two other members of the Carmens* Association are at this hour holding a conference with the superintendent. The Lake cars are now running with considerable regularity on Madison, Lake, Van Buren and Randolph streets. They are manned by arthed officers. Thus far today no attempt has been made to ditch the cars. The strikers are awaiting w ith much interest the outcome of the con ference. The strikers this morning addressed a letter to the president of the West Division Car Co. stating that they were w illing to compromise on a basis to be determined by three judges of courts. In answer to this President Jones submitted to the strikers a proposition that the sixteen discharged men be reinstated, with the exception of those against whom the charge of neglect of duty or incompeiency can be made and sustained. The demand on the company the day before the strike was that the discharged men be taken back and a guarantee given that in the future no man would he dismissed without a chance to defend himself against the charge preferred against him. President Jones stipulates that all the men on the strike first return to work, when he will submit the sixteen discharged men’s cases to any three j disinterested persons to determine whether there was not proper cause for their dis charge. At a meeting of the striking ear drivers and conductors tonight it was agreed to ac- j cept President Jones last proposition and re- j turn to work tomorrow. In this way the last harrier to a settlement of differences of arbitration is removed, as upon the return of the men the company agreed to submit the j question of reinstatement of the discharged; men to disinterested parties for final decision, j FROM W ASHINGTON. Delegate Ouray Relore the C'wmmi* isouer ot Indian Affair*—Nomination by the President—Cabinet Meeting. Washington, July 7. Ex-delegate Ourav of Arizona, to-day, tiled with the commissioner of Indian affairs a letter upon the subject of Indian troubles in that territory, in which he describes the career of the Indians on White Mountain reservation at and near the San Carlos agen cy, as having been for years, “characterized by rapine, bloodshed and destruction," and adds *’these Indians nerd no guns, there is not sufficient game in the country to make hunting an object, and if there was there is nothing to drive them to the pursuit of it. They are fed. fatened and maintained by the liberality of the government, in a style that tew poor laboring men in the country can afford. There is no exertion r» quired of them and if there was requirement would he made in vain tor they will not work.” After a tew remark-* on the inoffensive nature of the cowboy and the statement that there is not an instance on record showing that even j the worst of this class ever invaded an Indian reservation or murdered a single Indian, he savs the people of Arizona ask the Pres ident to issue an order requiring all arms to be taken from Indians occupying reservations in the Territory and earnestly asking your eo-oporatu>n in the premicea Mr. Ouray says the only true solution of the Indian problem is to be found in their removal from Arizona and their settlement in Indian Ter ritory. The President this afternoon appointed Willis G. Clark to be collector of customs for the port of Mobile, Ala. Secretaries Whitney and Lamar were ab sent from the cabinet m* eting today, which was of short duration. The outbreak of the Cheyennes was reported bv the secretary -of j war who said that steps have been taken to nrevent any more of the Indians from leav ing the reservation. He stated that a regi ment is now on the way to the scene of the trouble and other troops are available, but that the numbers are not sufficient in case of a general outbreak. A Lover Kills Himself and His Intended, Arcadia, Wii., July 7. Last night Fred Rogler faulty shot Annie Forsch, to whom he had been paying bis at* tentions. and then committed suicide by shooting himself in the temple. The girl was only 15 and the act was prompted owing to the strong objections to Rogler on the part of the girl’s parents. i GEN. GRANT. The Sick Soldier Ready for the End of Lite's Chapter—Too Mach Food Taken by the General Monday Evening. New York. July 7. A special from Ml. McGregor gives an in terview with ex-Senator Chaffee in which he says that in a pencil and paper talk with Gen. Grant, the sick chiettain slated exactly his feelings and conditions. I'p to a short time ago he had clung tenaciously to the ray .of hope that possibly a cure might be affected but as the time progressed, the depressed feeling superinduced by increasing exhaus tion had led him to abandon ali such thoughts, lie awaited the end calmly and coolly. No one knew what he had suffered. The Gen eral added that considering hit present teeble and debilitated condition he would almost hail with pleasure the close of life's chapter. Mt. McGregor, July 7. Gen. Grant took food for three times on Monday evening, but at about 2 o’clock Tuesday morning he wrote for Dr. Douglass and said food was growing distasteful. The physician appeared interested and the tick man hastened to complain that the food was not less palatable but that he believed he was taking more nourishment than he could as similate. The nurse was thereupon instructed to de crease the quantity given. The constant at tendance the patience is receiving from Dr Douglass and the nurse, under his direction, has without doubt prolonged his life. In or der to subdue or allay the General's pain so that he may be comfortable,it seems necessary that personal attendance should be given once in 3 hours. Today makes the third week ol the patient's life on the Mountain and it is true that without almost constant attendance the pains of the disease would have more than destroyed any improvement that lias resulted from the change, and that as lime progresses close care will be more than ever needed. Palliative measures employed on the affected parts are less quickly effec tive now than three weeks ago. Cocaine does not so quickly deaden the pain in the throat and there is now little doubt that if not a concurrent cause the cocaine has in creased the paralysis of the parts to inaction, of which the loss of voice is due. Though the secretions are now thinner, the causes of exhaustion are progressing. Still there are days when the contrary seems true. An instance occurred Tuesday morning, when the General, alter a quiet rest, wrote l)r. Douglass these words: "I can feel my strtngih increasing and the drain upon me is diminishing. When Dr. Dougiass went to the cottage between 8 and It tonight to prepare the Gen eral for bed, the latter wrote “I have had an easy day indeed. For the last half hour mv mouth has felt very free from mucus." Dr. Douglass at 10 o'clock said that he could see no reason why the night for Gen. Grant should not be as comfortable as the last and previous nights. A REMARK ABLE BICKER. Serious Charges Against Senator Mc Pherson. Trenton, N. J., July 7. The True American of Trenton, N. J., which lias beea charging United States Sen ator McPherson with treason to his party in order to serve personal ends and make his own reelection, when the time for it comes, a certainty, says in its issue of this morning, that on the evening of December o, 187,s, McPherson, being then a United States Sen ator, met Senator Sewall in room No. 120, of the Continental Hotel in Philadelphia and there laid out a programme for the reelection of Sewall. w ho is a republican to the United States Senate, in place of the democratic in cumbent, Theodore G. Randolph. The charge embraces the assertions that the programme included the securing of the consent of the Pensylvania railroad to Sewall's candidacy and its support for his election, especially in securing the selection of republican legisla tive candidates amenable to his control, and and the carrying of the counties of Middle sex and Burlington in his interest The pa per further charges that the alliance then formed between Senators Sewall ami Mc Pherson is still in force, and that it accounts for the inability of New Jersey democrats to get recognitions in Washington. All the New Jersey appointments made by President Cleveland, it holds,go to show that Mr. Sew ell has a hand in them, and that the democ racy have been cheated out of their rights. The conversation at the Continental Hotel was overheard, and the True American pub lishes a memorandum of the talk. The pa per says that the occupant of a room adjoin ing that in which McPherson and Sewell met, was Peter H. Watson, a prominent railroad man, once assistant secretary of war and afterward president of the Erie railway. He heard w hat was said in the next room, stated what he heard to Abram S. Hewitt of New York, and at his suggestion prepared a memorandum of McPherson and Sewell’s conversation. A Heavy Hail storm. Port Jf.rvis, N. Y., July 7. A very heavy hail storm passed over a part of Sussex county. N. J., Sunday. A section 15 miles long and 10 miles wide was devastated of grain, grass and vegetables. Hail fell to the depth of a foot.

THE MUR.MOSS Why the Flag was put at Hair Mast on the Fourth. Salt Lakk Cnv. Jl y 7. The Deseret Siws, the Mormon Church organ at Salt Lake City, savs in an editor ial The Mormon people have no reason for engaging on the Fourth of July in expres sions of j»y under existing circumstances, being denied the commonest rights of man. We say that toward them there is a repeti tion of the wrongs which caused the fathers of the common country to throw ott the pa rent government. More than this, the un warrantable irflietions heaped upon the Lat ter Dsy Saints are in some of their aspects much more severe and tyrannical than those under which the fathers of the nation groaned. Because of a lamentable disregard of the fundamental principles of this grand Repub lic, the grief of a portion of its people was expressed by the national insignia of mourn ing, tile nation’s flsg at half mast placed up on some public buildings. The drooping appearance of the national ensign occa sioned some surprise and considerable feel- ing. It was thought by not a few that news had been received of the death of General Grant, but the real reason in the minds of those who thus manifested the prevailing sentiment on independence day, was a more potent one than even the sentiment ot respect for General Grant, who is a great national character. The American standard was placed at half mast because the fundamental principles upon which this great government I were built, were being assassinated by some of those who should be interested in their 1 preservation and perpetuation. It was a symp ioiii of loyalty to constitutional principle and because we were sorry at their being dragged i in the mire of tvranny. Then follows four columns of a recital of their grievances, the gist being a condemna- 1 tion of the efforts of the courts to break up I polygamy, and the claim that the law is un-i constitutional in spite of the decision of the supreme court of the United States, sustain ing it. The article closes as follows Our mayor, city council, marshal, police, and other municipal officers need never be ill doubt as to how the people will feel when they take a hold, manly stand and maintain a I couragous front to the blatant fellows who are continually assailing us. When they think they can gain an office with fulsome praise they extol a public officer. But who does not know w hat this means? Would they, if they had the power to-day, elect our present mayor, any member ot your city council, or any other officer to the position which he holds? Of course they would not. Our officers must look to their constituents who elect them. They can rely upon them always and they are not likely to forget any faitiiful and courageous officer. The city council in secret session to-day unanimously adopted the report ot the com mittee declaring that tile halt masting of the national flag on the 4ih of July was because of raids on prominent Mormons tor living up to their rights as Mormon citizens.

FOREIGN NEWS ENGLISH PA It LI A M ENT. Discussion Over the Special Mission to Egypt. London, July 7. In the House of Commons this evening Sir Michael Hicks Beach replying to Charles McLaren, said he saw no reason why Sir Henry Drummond Wolf! should not go on the special mission to Egypt. McLaren thereupon gave notice he would introduce a motion declaring it inexpedient to trust Sir Henry with the mission in question. Sir Michael Hick* Beach introduced a mo tion that the time of the House on Tuesdays and Thursdays be devoted to government business. Gladstone supported the motion because he though it was desirable to speedily wind up the business for the session. In rega’d to the foreign policy Gladstone said he be lieved it was the duty of the late govern ment to support the present government in the prosecution of important national aims The statement was in main correct that Rus sia has promised Zulflcar Bass to the Ameer. The government, Gladstone said, would have his best support in all reasonable eflorts to bring that question to a settlement. Foreign Notes. Paris, July 7. Gen.

striker* Visit Several Kills and Compel the Workmen to Join Them. CitviLtru. O., July 7. This morning 1200 strikers from the iron mill* at Newburg, inarched into the city and visited the Chisholm shovel works on Case avenue. This establishment is operated by the Chisholm* who also own a controlling in terest in the Cleveland rolling mills. The strikers forced the workmen out and closed down the factory. They then proceeded to the I'nion screw works on the same avenue. Thev were denied admittance whereupon they broke in windows and forcibly took possession of the place. The workmen here quit work rather than have a not, at 1.30 P. M., the establishment closed. Several men were badly hurt by stones but no intentional v mlence agoinst workmen by the strikers is reported. At the screw works, which are partly owned by the Chisholms, the mob carried every thing before them. Doors were battered down with heavy pieces of timber and car pins were dashed through the windows. Fayette Brown, president of the company, was struck on the head with a club and quite seriously injured. The girls employed, in the packing rooms fainted and orders were quickly given to stop the engines and atop work. The strikers then left the citv and returned to the 18th ward.

AUGUSTA WHOLESALE MARKET. Tuesday, July 7. The prospect at this writing is that a good average hay crop is forthcoming. This could not have been said two weeks ago. or before the late heavy rain* The outlook then was very dubious, but It is now generally acknowledged that the cron will be In creased a strong third. "It preaent indication* an* to be relied upon," said a well known hav shipper yesterday, "there will be but slight change fhvm present prices the coming fall and winter.

Have new f,resoe*, large quantities of paper stock, and the ateot styles of type. Orders by mail will receive prompt attention The cowboys appear to regard the In dians of the Indian Territory as “offensive partisans.” Mayor Harrison, ol Chicago, in trying to please both the strikers and the railroad company, has pleased neither. The com pany says it is the Mayor’s business to protect their property and their right to run ears; the strikers declare that ho pro fessed to be their triend and has not proved to be so. The French socialists are out with a platform. They want the Presidency and the Senate of the republic abolished, and all power to be centered in the assembly, which would dismiss ministers of State at will. The easy path which this plan opens to a dictatorship, and the worst kind of tyranny as exemplified by the French Revolution, they do not, or pretend not to see. Hut this demand is not a cir cumstance to the reform they want in other directions. All children, whether legitimate or illegitimate, are to he equal before the law, and are to be educated and fed at public expense; disabled workmen arc to be supported bv the government. A report comes from Ohio that the Hocking Valley miners are again holding meetings mid organizing, with a view to demanding an increase in the wages for mining,from 40 to AO cents per ton. One would suppose that the terrible losses and the disastrous results of the long strikes last year would have prevented another such struggle in the present condition of the business. According to reports, the operators are doing only a moderate amount of business even now, and the disturbances in various iron establish ments in Ohio tend to diminish their sales nor is there any satisfactory indication as yet ot a general improvement in uianufac tures. Nevertheless, the wages paid ap pear unusually low, and would probably not be as readily accepted anywhere else, for the coal of the Hocking Valley mines is unusually easy to mine, and low wages there mean more to the producer than in almost any other district. It is only a lit tle while since the reports indicated a generally satisfied state of feeling in the Hock ing Valley region,and another strike at this time would be most unfortunate for all parties. The South American ('ommissioq does not look with hopefulness upon the pros pect of improved commercial relations be tween Chili and the United States, since it regards Chili from a commercial point of view as having practically become an En glish colony. A series of propositions were made by the commission to the presi dent of Chili looking to a renewal of the old treaty ot amity, commerce, and navi gation between the United States and Chili, to a reciprocal commercial treaty, and the establishment of a common silver coin of the value of the United States gedd dollar to he coined by each of the Ameri can republics, but they each, except the last, met with decided disfavor on the part of President Santa Maria and his ministers. The latter thought that the most desirable method ot increasing trade between the two countries would be by the establish ment of direct steam communication l>e tween them. If any United States steam ship company would establish such com munication. Chili would give it an annual subsidy of $50,000 in stiver, the sum that is now given to the Pacific Steam Naviga tion Company of Liverpool. Such estab lishment, however, would hardly bo prac ticable without the granting of a subsidy by the United States, and subsidies are as yet greatly unpopular with the people of this country. The more that is heard about the Cana dian rebel Riel, the less he seems entitled to public sympathy of any kind. During the revolt, which, it ought not to be for gotten, had severe provocation, it was supposed that he was shrewd, patriotic, and a brave leader of an oppressed people and indeed, this notion of him was borne out by his earlier history. Since his cap ture. or, as he euphemistically term* it, his "surrender,'’ he has shown himself rather simple and thoroughly cowardly. He first attacked the priests to whom it was assumed he was ianaiicallv attached and has already succeeded in alienating this element of the support he might reas onably have expected in his approach ing trial. In the uext place he represents hims.ll as the victim, instead of the instigator, of the revolt, which is probably rank perfidy on his part towards the people he must have deceived into fancying themselves much j more powerful than they really were. His last statement, m a letter to a friend, to the effect that the monnted police were the real aggressors and the true cause of the war, will certainly not be believed in any quarter. It is likely that be tried at Regina, the capital of the Northwest Territory,but even ii he were transported to Lower Canada, as he desires to be, it it doubttul if his course, since his arrest, will not be found to have so disaffected most of those who would otherwise have been his staunch friends as to make the matter of place of small consequence as regards the result of this proceeding against him. I Loasea in Battle. Strange as it may sound, improvements in killing men in battle actually prevent men from being killed Ancient wars were al ways more bloody, counting the number of fighting men. than modern ones Death dealing machine* iu the hands of an array or navy g i very far to make battles improbable. In th►* Franco-Prussian war, France had a j powerful of iron clads which was ot not the slightest use, because German torpedoes and Krupp’s great guns made a venture into i German harbors a risk at annihilation. The same thing happened in the last war between the Russians and Turks, where neither side ventured on a naval battle though both had i ironclads. Indeed, in the march of skilled warfare the time may come when two armies confronting each other, and each finding at- 1 tack to mean the extermination of the assail ing party, one will either retire, gracefully! throwing up the sponge, or both will wait in camp until the side which has the shortest purse retreats without firing a gun. Or war may become so dangerous that nations will settle their differences in some other way than one which uromises military or naval perdition. All this has been shown lately by an analy sis of the per cent of the loss in the promi nent battles of the last 250 years. For evi dent reasons the losses in attacks on fortified places are omitted, and Waterloo losses, be cause there are no accurate returns of the latter. For convenience these battles are di vided into 4 periods. The first period, from 1631 to 1674, embraces the time from when firearms w ere generally used to the introduc tion of the iron ramrod and the bayonet. At this time the rudest and heaviest muskets were in use, together with the heavy iron rest which the soldior used iu firing, and every musketeer stood with firing tools enough hung round him to furnish out a pack peddler, while the loading and discharge of his musket took about as much time as it would for a smart housewife to get a family breakfast. Yet battles with such weapons were very bloody, and the proportion of the killed to the wounded was very great. At Marston’s Moor, in the war between Charles I. and Cromwell, the losses were over 7000 in a total of about 40,000 men of both armies. At Lutzen, Wallenstein fighting against Gus tavus Adolphus left 9000 dead. At Itocroy. of 18.000 Spanish infantry 9000 were killed in the ranks by the victorious French. The average per cent of loss for this period was 26 In the second period, from 1745 to 1813,the old “Brown Bess” smooth bore Hint lock musket, w ith bayonet, an improved firearm, was used, and the Napoleonic wars came. The average per cent of loss in this period, was 204. At Bunker’s llill the per cent was 24, and at Lundy’s Lane 19. The third pe riod. from 1854 to 1863, w itnesses the use of r.fl>*d barrels and percussion caps. The p r 1 cent of loss was 15. The loss at the Alma, 1854, in the Crimean war, was 9 per cent; at Solferino 9. at Shiloh 24, at Anihtam 16, at Fredericksburg 8, and at Chancellorsville 11 per cent of the forces engaged Grant’s Wil derness campaign is omitted in the estimate i because of the confusion in the Confederate report of their losses, but the Union \rmy, from May 4th to dune 3d. when it declined to j renew the attack at Cold Harbor out of 190. 000 men lost over 65,000, a per cent much above the general average. The fourth period, 1866 to 1870, the age of the breech-loading rifles, and embracing the i wars between the Prussians and Austrians, j and between Germany and France, shows a 1 loss of 11 per cent. At Konniggratz the loss w a* 7 per cent; at Sedan 8-9. From all ot winch it appears that the improvements ot war are fast destroying the bloodiness of I modern warfare. The Trade of Khartoum. 1 In the districts which lie nearest to the ivory countries, and are inhabited bv peace ful races devoted to agriculture, the mer- j chants of Khartoum maintain a great number of settlements. They have apportioned the territory arming themselves,and have brought the natives to a condition of vassalage. fhe d* pots for ivory, ammunition, barter-goods, an»l means of subsistence are villages sur rounded by palisades, ami called Seritas Kv» ry Khartoum merchant in the different districts where he maintains his settlement is r* presented by a superintendent and a num ber of subordinate agents.

A BAD LOT. Arrested In florhem by Detective B. A. Davli. For nearly a year past the village of Gor ham has been cursed by a gang of bad young men, varying in age from 18 to 21 years, who have allowed no opportunity to go by without maliciously damaging the property of the citizens. They have torn down fences, pulled gates from binges, broken into the engine house, damaged the engine, dragged the fire ladders out of doors, and lately have set fire to bundles of hay in the fields. Saturday night they burned up quite a lot of hav be* longing to Gov. Robie. Last Friday Detec tive K. A. Davis of Portland was employed to investigate the matter and see if he could discover the guilty parties. He succeeded with his usual skill, and Monday, with the aid of I>eputy Sheriff McLellan, arrested the fol lowing young rascals, carried them to Port land, and lodged them in the county jail: •John Feeney, William Feeney, Michael Flaherty, Henry Whitney. Frank Floyd. Eu gene Floyd, Edward Kane, and one other whose name we did not get. These fellows are all under 21 years of age, and it is more than probable that some of them will be held on charges more serious than the offence named above t’llf Personal. Mis* May Hinds of Philadelphia, is visiting Miss Florence Parrott. Mr. Joseph Benoit and wife left Augusta Monday, and will sail for France on the French steamer “Normandi.” this afternoon. Yesterday was the 80th birthday of Mr. J. K. Partridge, and he '■lipped into the Journal offi e hale and hea ,*ty, exhibiting a straw berry which he had raised, over six inches in circumference. The summer terra of ten weeks in district No. 10, closed July 3 1, taught by Miss J K. Ballard. At the closing exercises a large number were present who were inter ested in the school. The children did credit both to themselves and teacher. A prize was awarded to Ada Miller and Nellie Nichols for punctuality, they being neither absent, tardy or dismissed during the term For some time past the rumsellers of Togus who possessed a United States license, have been freely selling I'kju ir on the grounds of the National dome, asserting that their license gave them a perfect right to do so on land under the jurisdiction ot the general govern ment. They even went so far as to boast of t their right to sel 1, and related instances when they had sold. Judge Andrews decided that his court had no authority in the matter. Yesterday, however. United States Commis sioner Choate made a warrant against John Carson for selling liquor on the national ground" at Togus, under sec. 5391 of the Re vised Statutes of the Unite I States, which reads as follows If any offence In* committed in anyplace which has h»*en or hereafter be c ded to and under the ju risdiction of the I'nib-d States, which offence l" not prohibited or the punishment thereof is not special ly provided for bv any law of the United States.such often*' "hall liable to, and receive, the same pun ishment a" the law" of the Mate in which such pla e is situated, now in force,provided for the like offense when committed within the jurisdiction of such Mate; and no subsequent repeal of any such State law shall effect any prosecution for such offense In any court of the United .Mates. Carson was brought before the commission er and hi" c ise cootiou l. This, as nearly as can be learned i" th first time a case has ever came up und. runs section,in the Unit'd States. A. M. Goddard, Ksq.. is counsel for the respondent. It was stated bv lawyers, yesterday, that as this section permits the enforcement of tin* Maine prohibitory law at the dome, tin* sale of lager beer which is and has been freely sold there, can be stooped. A Penobscot «almon, weighing twenty pounds, was sent to General Grant last week bv IP P. Kidder Co., of Bangor, with a note expressing the sympathy and regard of the people o. B ingor. The following reply was received Mt. McGrkoor, July 3. B. P. Kidder Co., Gentlemen —Th** salmon you so kindly sent to General Grant has arrived and we had part of it this morning at breakfast. It was delicious and was enjoyed very much. Gen eral Grant desires me to write and thank you tor sending it. Respectfully, F. I). Grant. Ciinip (around Xotfa. As our usual custom has been to spend the I Fourth at this place, we have been able to i continue it this season. We find parties here from various places; some to spend the summer anil others to spend the day. Miss Ayer of Boston, with friends, is occupying her cottage at the foot of Baker Avenue. Bath people are occupying a cottage at the corner of Wesley anil Baker avenues. Par ties from Augusta have raised tents on Wes lev avenue and seem to be enjoying life. A party of HO came down from Gardiner to spend the day, and a merry partv it was. Their table was spread upon Mt. Zion—as nothing short of the large dining hall could afford accommodations for so large a party. Maple Hall has been moved to correspond with the street on the north, and will be ren ovated and made as comfortable as possible But like the large boarding house it has out lived its usefulness. When these were built they were called good, and, in fact, in those days people were not so fastidious as at the present day. Now, when people go to camp meeting they want, or expect as good accom modations as at home, and are not satisfied unless they can be entertained first class A move was made to erect a new boarding house, not as large as the present building, with rooms in the second story. But the di-, rectors did not feel quite justified in making a debt, even small. and the mat ter was laid over until this season, Probably as soon as the meetings close a more modern building will be erected which will be a credit to the place. I noticed lum ber piled upon Smith Avenue, but am not able to sav who is to build. Mr. Bowie ot Gardiner has finished a fine cottage on Wes- J ley Avenue, and his family will at once oc cupy it. Arrangements for the meetings are about completed. I)r. Cullis of Boston has been invited to hold a meeting here and has ac- cepted—time not yet fixed; but will doubt-, less be arranged during the coming week. It, is hoped that he will be able to occupy from j the 14th to the 18th of Sept —There are some cottages that can be engaged by addressing the superintendent at Richmond. s. Mew Paper at Xorth Conway. A new summer paper is to be started in j North Conway this season and conducted for, the interest of the Hast side of the White j Mountains. Such a journal has long been needed, and if properly conducted can hardly fail of being ot great advantage to that sec tion. It is the intention of the editor, who has had long experience on the Boston Press, to make the paper as bright and newsy as possible. It is expected that the first num ber will appear this week.

There was a terrific shower at Lisbon, Fri day afternoon, during which Luther Dwelley and another man. drove into the barn to es cape, and remained in their wagon. Shortly after driving in. the barn was struck and the horse killed Thev were unhurt. The barn was burned flat. The work of some malicious scamp has been seen within a few days in Danville, re sulting in the death of a valuable yearling colt shot in the field of Samuel Robinson in that place. In Mr Robinson's field are eight or nine colts and six or seven head of cattle. Mr. Robinson went out into his field one day last week and found the dead colt with a bui let hole over his eye and his body hardly cold. The miscreant who did the deed is uot known. Monday morning, it was reported that two colts and a heifer had been also shot in the same field. Aroostook. BXK Limestone is happv in having no paupers.

Pineo, nee Flora Rodick, has refused an of fer of $150,000 for Bar Island, that contains, perhaps, 150 acres. $1000 per acre. Ten or fifteen years ago $1000 would have bought the entire Island, house, barns and all. Mr. George Dunton.a Bangor fruit hawker who went to Ellsworth to sell bis goods on Saturday, was arrested, and after being im prisoned two hours was released. He savs that he will sue the city of Ellsworth for damages. Work has begun in good earnest at the Brooklyn sardine factory after the long idle ness. The employes have been w orking day and night for the past week. In regard to the injunction which citizens of Bar Harbor have moved on the electric station at that place, on account of the disa greeable noise, Judge Peters has decided that they cannot cause its location to be changed on those grounds if the company provide a means of removing the sound. They will therefore introduce steam tanks in connec tion with the exhaust pipe which causes a noisless escape. The Collins Granite Company’s property at East Bluehill was sold at auction recently, to John E. Donnell, of Portland, lor twenty one thousand dollar*.

Mr. Klbridge Mann set a trap for him, hut when he visited the spot soon after, the trap was found in a neighboring tree, hut the bear had escaped none the worse for his adventure, with the i exception of one of his feet which he had left in the trap A man named Neddo. at Medway, injured his foot so hadlv in the woods while bark peeling, as to require amputation of the left foot and ankle, reports a correspondent of the Whig. Piscataquis. Dennis Billington of Milo, met with an ac cident at Gifford’s saw mill a few davs ago by having a slab thrown by one of the saws, causing a slight fracture of one rib. This is the second time he has been hit in a similar manner. Mr. Charles E. Edes, of Deep Creek Falls, W. T., arrived in Foxcroft on Thursday last on a visit to his mother and other relatives. He was a member of the Sixth Maine Regi ment. and this is his first visit to his native place since his discharge from service in 1863.

Not long ago burglars made an unsuccess-; ful attempt to hr^ak open the safe of Mr. Charles K. Dimmock of Limington.

They sing in tone# aa glad as ever The songs she loved to bear Thev braid the rose in summer garland* W hose flowers to her were dear. And still the footstep* in the passage, Her biushes at the door, Her timid word* of maidei* welcome Come back to me once more. And all forgetful ot my sorrow, Unmindful of my pain. I think she has but newly left me And soon will come again. She stays without, perchance, a moment, To dress bag d*;rk brown hair J hear the rustle of her garment*, Her light step on the stair. Oh fluttering heart, control thy tnmult, Lest eve# profane -hould see My cheeks betray the rush of rapture Her coming brings to me. She tarries long, but lo! a whisper Beyond the open door; And gliding through the quiet sunshine; A shadow on the floor. Ah ’tfs the whispering pine that call* me, The vine whose shadow strays; And my patient heart must still await her. Nor chide her long delays. But my heart grow# sick with weary waiting, A# many a time before; Her foot is ever at the threshold Yet never passes o’er. —Ilayard Taylor. Orchard and Garden Sow late radishes. Cut out the black knots. For pear slugs use air-siacked lime. Mulch late peas and beans with litter. Strawberries may follow early peas or potatoes. Mellow culture lessens the hurt from drouth one-balf. Cut the pot herfcs when in flower and dry in the shade. If early cucumbers have some of the shoots thinned out, and a little fresh soil added to the surface of the bed, they will put on new life, and bear some yet. Whatever may be said of sod-culture for old orchards, it is certain that newly set trees will grow ten times as fast if kept well cultivated and clean of weeds, as if neglected. Layering Strawberries on Sod—When it is considered that a year is gained in the fruiting of a new strawberry patch by lay ering the young plants into pots in the summer and setting these out the same season, it is not strange that pot layering should have become very popular of late years. While this method has advantages to the nurseryman who ships plants, those who have no special need of pot plants can do better by layering on soda. Take up some turf and cut it into pieces six inches square. Lower each piece near the old plants, with the grass side down. Thetop surface ol the turf should be a little lower than the general surface and soil to be drawn in to make all even. Direct the layers, from one to three, to each block of turl. In about one month the young plants will be well enough rooted that the turf with the plants may be lifted and transferred for making the new bed. In pot havering there must be frequent water ing of the pots; by using soda this labor is dispensed with. Flowers and the Lawn. Layer roses and pinks. (lather seeds as they ripen. Sow the last batch of candytuft. Shade choice blooming plants from the noon sun. Plants not allowed to seed will yield many more llowers. Weak brine sprinkled on gravel walks, or in the joints of brick or stone walks, is death to weeds. The lady bird or lady bug is known to destroy large numbers of plant lice. Its presence should therefore be encouraged by all plant growers. They lay their eggs in small patches in the spring, wherever plant lice abound, so that the larva is hatched in the midst of its natural food. In the ease of vases and baskets usually many plants must draw moisture from a j small bulk of earth, and frequent, usually daily watering is absolutely needed. With grass and plants in tlower beds, not only is this not so, but here there is a connec tion with the moisture in the earth beneath which prevents suffering from dryness for some time. Overwatering the latte1"tends to a rank growth with lessened bloom. Overwatering the lawn causes an exces sive degree of moisture, that is not pleas ant to the surroundings and may be un healthy to human beings. Position is Everything.

She was very much reduced in strength, and believed herself about to become a victim of Consumption. While in this condition, she was strongly recommended l>v Rev.
