CRIME.
A comspondcnt ot the St. Lonl; Iwwora,
Writing from Wsrsaw, Mo., August 4, T-
Dunn the war a man named Durasset was
VIM in a street fight by mother man named
Dickinson. An indictment waa ioand, but the
officer could not or would not arrest him, and
It waa iupposcd blood would flow when his cap
tnra was attempted. Another desperado,
name Lote Harris, embodying the elements or
physical terror before the war, aad establishing
reputation as a notorious bush whacser since
Its couimenceinont, had been indicted in Hick
ory eonnty, evading arrest by leaving the coun
try with the skerltfot that county in clone pur
suit, but rctured a short time since, deflant and
threatening as ever. The writ tor fcls arrest
-was placed in the hands of Sheriff Mitchell, of
this county, who summoned a posse, and In
company with his brother, acting as deputy,
proceeded to serve it.
On the way. iicilnon was arrested without
difficulty, and the houso In which Harris had
taken retnge was surrounded at eight o'clock
this morning, but the answer to tbe demand for
the surrender of the fugitive was a heavy volley
of double-barrel guns loaded with buckshot,
from the windows of the house, and delivered
at 6hort range. Horace K. Petts, of White
township, was killed instantly, being completely
Ilddled. Jasper Mitchell, brother ol tbe Bucriff,
was struck in three places, and only spoke once
after the shot was Bred. Wallace W. Smith was
hot In the hip, the shot ranging Inward, and
inflicting a Mortal wound.. The Sheriff'! party
returned tbe fire, but after a short contest, find
in tile odds against them, drew off, and re
turned to town, ft distance ot fourteen miles.
A few hours after their arrival the Bedalla
itage came In with the intelligence that the mail
ad been robbed by ttve men on horseback, who,
I am inlormed, answered the description ot
the desperadoes known or believed to be with
Harris when the Sheriff's posse was fired on at
his father's house. Seven hundred dollars were
taken from the passengers, and a shot fired at
one of them to compel submission.
I A Tragedy at CHUe Iloek, Arkansas.
The Little Rock (Ark.) Gazette, of the 8th.
5n Friday last n negro named James Warner
Trent to the residence of O. BUnge, aud told
Mrs. Btange that her lnwband was ill and de
sired her to come to him. Mr. Btange often
gtays at his brick-kiln, at Fourcue bridge, his
residence beine near the southwest corner of
tbe arsenal grounds, distant about one mile.
The negro told Mrs. Btange that the Major her
husband desired her to bring the "blue box."
The box referred to contnlned as near as can be
ascertained about one hundred and fifty dollars.
As guileless as a child, Mrs. Btange left her
resioence with the negro, box in hand, little
dreaming of the desperate struagle awaiting her.
On Saturday morning she was found dead In a
toy. road leading froru her residence to her hus
band'B place of business, her head horribly cut
In several places, and pools of blood about her.
It appears that this negro (Warner) had been In
her hunband's employ, had been discharged the
day previous, and had been sent to Mrs. Btange
ler the balance due him, which she paid out of
the box referred to. isome trouble seems to
have occurred between Major Stange aud the
negro, but it was afterwards settled, aud tlie
ncero ugrced to go to work again. The diffi
culty and settlement occurred on Thursday
evening.
At 8 o'clock, or a little after, of the same day,
he called for Mrs. Btange as stated, and tbe two
loft the house together, Mrs. Stangc's little girl,
about nine years of age, beiug present when
they Btarted. Tbe nieht was pleasant and bright
from a lull moon. The place selected for the
murderous deed Is about a half mile west of the
Starbuck place, south of the city limits, aud a
half mile or more distant from any residence.
From the appearance of the corpse, the deceased
must have been choked until she was nearly
senseless, after which her head was cut fearfully
in the lett tempi, In two plac.pn tbrouu tta
skull, over the left eye, through the eye-ball
and in the back of the head.
DISASTER.
tba
A Freight Trala JDoueollsbad o
New Haven Hallroad.
The New Haven (Conn.) Courier of yesterday
given the following additional particulars of the
smash-up on the Shore Line Road:
On Saturday evening, as the six o'clock train
on the Shore Line Railroad was Jeaviug tke city,
a lreight train was just coming Into the city
on the Hartford Bailroad, and as the Shore
Line train crossed the track ot the Hartford
lioad. it struck the third car ot the freight
train, whirliug it around and throwing it off
the tracK. rue next car aiso xoiiowca in tae
same manner, both being dashed to pieces
and made a most complete wreck. The next
two cars were run under by tbe engine and
forced upon top of it, bringing the Shore
Line train to a stand still. Though both trains
were thus brought to a sudden stop, strange to
sav.no one was injured. The engineer of the
freight train, seeing the approach of the pas
senerer train, put on steam, and was thus able
to get his engine and the cars past the point of
collision. The engineer of the Shore Line
train forced back the lever that controls the
steam, reversing the engine, aud then, as the
crash came, dropped by the furnace doors. Tbe
fireman, seeing the danger, leaped from tbe
train. The engine was scraped clear of all its
ornamental parts or top, the smokestack,
headlight and cab being swept off, the cover
ing to tbe boiler stripped to pieces, tbe cylin
ders Droicen in til "owcatcuer twistod-the
Whole presenting a ruined condition. When the
train stopped the engineer crept out iiorn be
neath the ruins of the cab of the engine un
harmed. It is a wonder he was not killed. Two
freight cars were piled on top of the engine, and
beside the track were two more broken into
splinters, and their contents, consisting ot mer
chandise, badly damaged. Three of the freight
ears were injured bejoud repair, and are worth
less. Only one car can be repaired. All of the
are were loaded wilh valuable merchandise,
much of which was damaged, broken open, and
some entirely destroyed.
Before the arrival of the police some thieves
Bade themselves very busy, and stole quite a
quantity of goods. The loss to the Hartford
road cannot lall far short, we should judge, of
$10,000, while the repairs to tbe engine will
grobably cost some $4010 or $j000. Assistant
uperintendent Davidson, of the Hartford road,
happened to be in tbe city, and he immediately
set a gang of hands to werk to clear tbe wreck,
and they succeeded In removing the debris so as
to let the 11 o'clock exsress go through, and at
1 o'clock yesterday morning all traces ot the
aceident had been removed.

Tbe Silver Miming Districts of Southeast
Nevada.
A Chicago journal recently said: We were
shown a button ot crude kilver bullion iroin the
Pah Banagat Lake Mining District of Souto
aaitern Nevada (which lies southwest from Salt
Lake City, about 4s0 miles), which had been
produced by Professor S. V. Woodhull's (of this
lty) method of reducing ores by a purely che
mical process. This button weighed about
alghtecn pounds, and wa9 obtained from 200
poends of mineral rock. Tbe chemiculs used
In such reduction are found in the district. It
it claimed that ore can be reduced by this pro
cess at a cot of about $18 per ton. The average
yield of silver from the ores found in the dis
trict is about $200 per ton; audit is further
Claimed that the amouut of mineral secured by
this process from the same amount of ore is ten
to flfteon per cent, more than by the mill and
analgaaiation process. The cost of smelting
vorks capable ot reducing ten tons of ore nor
day by this process is oue-thlrd less than that of
erecting ttaiDptng mills of the same capacity
With the above meulioued specimens were
xamples of rock salt from St. Thomas, in the
same region. These samples are almost trim,
parent, and are pure salt, except that they
eoatala about five per cent, of nitre, which of
oourse does not depreciate its value. These
samples are from a mountain of salt about eight
ttiles in length and two miles in brendtb.
Jar gUarn Youmr's people find it profltable to
b'ln Jbeir ,uPPly of salt from this source
ysther than evaporate it from the salt springs of
shelf bwn region even thousrh they are com
pelled to haul It In waeons 608 to 800 miles,
after blasting it from the mountain side.
Concern! eg this district Mr. i. W. Wilson
writes, tinder date of July Us "Since the dis
covery of Pah Ranagat every one who has
visited this district, capable of ludlnr, has been
satisfied that we have one of the rlohest silver
regions in the United States; but want of capi
tal to develope the mines for the reduction ot
the ore, bas made business rather dull wilh as
for some time.
The Hon. Joseph E. Springer, of Hamilton,
Ohio, who is one of the first Glscoverers of Pah
Bnnagatand Springer mountains, with Its net
work of rich 6tlver veins, has a tunnel 115 feet
feet In length, which will, at 609 tee cut thir
teen different ledges at right angles, atioag
which are the McLean, a ledge ten feet wide;
alothe Denver, the Spiinger, and Little Giant.
This tunnel, when completed, will cut tbe upper
ledges at a depth of 310 leet, and the thirteen
ledges at an aggregate depth ot 3260 feet.
Mr. Springer has certainly shown great Inge
nuity In the place be has selected lor prospect
ing the veins and for tbe future practical work
ing of the mines. On the McLean they have
already taken out some thirty tons ot good ore,
and on the Hprlnger lode they have about lortv
tons of rich chloride ores, aveiaglng lrom $U0
to $160 per ton. They have also an incline
which they are working nlnht and day, and at a
depth of 65 leet liBve struck Blate, which is the
surest sign cf rich and permanent mines. From
this lode alone tbey are now taking sufficient
ore to run a ten-stamp mill. There are many
olhpr wcll-doflned ledftes, which will no doubt
prove rich and permanent silver veins when
they are sufficiently developed.
MOTLEY.
The Ex. Minister to Austria Declines a
Public KecepMoai.
Mr. Motley's letter dectiningla public reception
in Boston, reads as follows:
Boston, July 28. To bis Excellency Alexan
der H. Bullock, Governor of Massachusetts; hi9
Honor N. B. Bhurtleff, Mayor or Boston; t&e
Bev. Thomas Hill, President of Harvard Univer
sity ; the Hon. JohnH. Clifford ; the Hou. Ueoreo
T. bigelow; the Hon. David Bear; Jacob Btge
low, M. D., and others, Gentlemen: I have
Just had the honor to receive youi letter ot July
14, in which you request me to name an occasion
upon which I could meet yourselves, and such
others of our lellow-citizens as might be inclined
to ereet me after my lone absence. I find It
difficult lo say in adequate language hew deeply
I am touched by this unexpected and cordial
letter ot welcome.
No manifestation of regard has ever gratified
me so much as this which I now receive from so
large a number of my fellow-citizens, men
whose names are most honored in our Cointnan
wealtb, and many of whom I am proud
to count among my familiar and
ficrsonal friends. I assure jou that the
etter and the signatures which it bears will
always be treasured by me amoug my most
valuable possessions: and it is because I so fully
appreciate yonr kina expressions of esteem that
I trust you will not misinterpret my motives nor
think me in any degree wanting in sensibility to
your very Battering proposition if I ask leave to
decline the honor of a public reception.
The warm expression of your
wishes in Ibis reppect Is a suffi
cient gratification to me, and I oinnot
but feel that too long a period has elapsed,
owing to acciddntal circumstances, between tbe
abruptconclusion of my term of pablic service
and my return to Boston, to permit my givlut
you any recent details of pol ititat affairs at my
late place of duty. It will be my eood loriue,
I trust, to meet every one of those esteemed
friends and fellow citizens who have signed the
letter, and to exchange with them the friendly
greetings, without any lormality, which are so
grateful to one who bas been so long absent
from his country. Seven years have passed
since I left the United States, and I hardly think
u .Ttraftannt tn iiiv that they have beeu more
Important than any other eeveu Venn iu mo
annals of our race. The stride which has been
taken by the republic in its onward and
upward progress during those event
ful years is without a precedent or parallel.
Democracy has been upon its trial, ana irrevo
cably has the American people vindicated the
right and tbe capacity ot the people to eovern
Itself. Self-government might have perished
from the earth, had the great republic fallen in
its struggle with tbe oligarchy, had oar faith in
the democratic principle faltered during the
awful conflict to which we were doomed by the
inexorable logic of history. Perhaps you will
not think it outof place for me to fay on this oc
casion that in the country where I have so long
been officially residine, it was never my lot to
hear or to read any expressions of unfriendly
feeling towards our country. Every mani
festation was courteous, kindly and sincere,
the Imperial Government throuehout the war
maintaining its amicable relations unimpaired
with the Government of the United States.
There are many clouds hanging over the present
and the future of that ancient empire, but there
is light breaking above inern, and no man that
bas hopes of human progress but must wish
God-speed to the efforts of the administration of
the present sovereign to advance the cause of
constitutional freedom and the emancipation of
tbe people from civil and sacerdotal thraldom.
I have written more than I intended, it may be
more than I ought, but it was Impossible for me
not to respond with the utmost sympathy to
your congratulations on the abolition or slavery,
and the successful Issue of the civil war.
I am, gentlemen, with sincere respect and re
gard, jour friend and obedient servant,
J. L. Motlkt.

Attempted Murder of Negroes at Hick
moid, A dispatch from Richmond, Ta., to the H. Y
Times this morning, says:
An exciting disturbance occurred at the
Democratic mass meeting held last evenlug at
the lower market. There was a very large at
tendance of both whites and blacks. While
General Ould was speaking, he was interrupted
two or three times by a negro seated at the
window of a frame shanty near the stand.
Several cried out, "Dry up !" while others yelled
'Let's pull the shanty down I'' The negro per
sisted in his interruptions of the speaker, when
the cry was raised of "Go for them!" and a rush
was made at the house, which was bombarded
with paving stones. The crowd was thrown
into a panic, and fled in all directions. Order
was soon restored, but in a few moments
other panic occurred from tke same ctuse. The
white men resumed their attack on the shanty,
and wild cries of "Kill the d d nigger!" ' Hans
him!" etc., were raised. The hoase was
entered, and ithe inmates fled through the
back doors and yard into the street, pursued by
the whites, who chased them up Franklin street,
firing pistols st them, but without doing any
Injury. The wildest excitement prevailed, and
there was every prospect of a serious riot.
Several white persons were injured by brlekbals.
Had the negroes stood their ground there would
have been bloody work. Tbe police soon col
lected ia force, the blacks dispersed to their
homes, and peace reigned. This is the first time
tbe whites have attacked the negroes in Rich
mond. The excitement in tbe city is very great.

SOTiraer WaruoUh's Call for Vrsopt'
It is ascertained tbat ro furtber action will
be taken relative to the appeal of Governor
Warmouth for troops tban tbe letter of lnstruc
tiens sent to General Buchanan. Tbe Presl
dent, in this matter, has managed to execute the
law to a certain extent, without directly recog
nizing tbe Government of Louisiana.
Instead of responding to the appeal himself
he lorned it over to the becretarj of War, and
thereby kept himself from holding any comma
nkation with Governor War mouth. His friends
here boast that be has not recognized
tbe State Government of Louisiana, and does
not Intend doing so.
Via Cabtaot
is now in session, the only members present
being Secretaries McCullocb, Browning, Scho'
field, and Attorney-General Evarts. Mr. Eewsrd
is represented by Assistant Secretary of State
Hunter.
Roslgaatlosis ad Vacancies.
The Attorney General's opinion of tbe power
of tbe President to accept resignations and fill
