GaLvesTox, scouting party of river guards police numbering twenty-five men sur- prised a band of about twenty smug- glers, well armed and with a cavalcade of pack-mules. The smugglers at once showed fight, and at the first volley two of the guards fell dead and four others had their horses killed under them. The guards thea fell back and dispatch. el a courier to Piedras Negras for reinforcements. In the meantime the smugglers fell back toward the Rio Grande, with the evident purposes of crossing the river to the American side from which they were distant eight miles. The smugglers in their retrest kept up a desultory skirmish with the reinforced guards, who ae priming them in the rear, When it became apparent that the design of the contra- bandists was to seek refuge on Ameri. ean soil, the Mexican anthorities ni ti fied Collectors Throkold, who immedi. ately dispatched a8 posse of mour ted inspectors from this city to interespt them. A brisk fight is anticipated. A Mexican guard arrived st Piedras Ne gras late this evening from the scene of action aad reports the fight still in pro- gress and one or more guards killed. The loss of the smugglers is notknown, The postal convention which has been concluded between this country and Mexico practicslly extends the postal facilities. of each conntry into the other on the scme terms and with the same advantages that are enjoyed by its own citizens, The principal value of its provisions will lie in the opportunity for freer and more expeditious com- mercial intercourse, This will appesr espreially in the facilities for sending parcels of , not exceeding four pounds and six ounces in weight, subject to no charge or detention ex- and ought to be ss expeditious and cer- tain ss between the different iri Of muth can system, aad that is likely to be im- proved as one result of the intereha i { sheet mills and neil factory that owing hundred | employes would have to be made, com~ | mencing July 1, of shout ten per cent. | Puddlers and heaters fifteen | morning ground on | The conflict is still in progress A| exertion, and with the strenuous rup- port of Cardinal Manning, Cardinni Gibbons secured what may be called a stay of proceedings until Rome should have obtained the full sense of the American episcopate on the momen- tous question, As it now stands it Is pot absolutely certain that there may not be friction between the Koights and the church, but all the indications are that the unanimity of the American bishops in advising prudence and a policy of non-interference will pot fajl of its effect, Powder Mill Explosion: Wavyxe, N.
