The Washington cOrreepondettee of the N. Y.
Herald says: '
Robert J. Walkeriappearod before the Commit
tee on Public Expenditures again to-day and
added a.now . Bo interetiOng ' c hapter to the
-Alaska fraud deVeloPments. He said he had
seen" 'some new! statements in the news
papers of late making serious charges
against certain officials, which he pronounced
entire fabrications. Passing from this, he
took -np the testimony of a certain newspaper
conespOndent. Ho said that this correspondent
' hint tafled.npon Mr. Frederick Stanton, and af
ter observing that he understood there was a good
deal-of 'money in the job, stated that he could
ebetrol :a , number of votes in the House and also
thecorreepondence of many leading newspapers.
• Tire correspondent put the quest= bluntly to Mr.
Stanton, "Le there money in the job?" And added,
"If there is, I'll be hanged if I don't want my
alutre of it.,' The correspondent further said that
he understood Mr. Walker had been entrusted
with a large amount of money to distribute
among members and newspaper men to help the
job through. If such were the fact he woctld un
dertake to control a certain number of votes and
Rapers, either for or against the measure, it a
certain amount would be paid down then and
there. Mr. Stanton informed the correspondent
that he had been wrongly informed, that there
was no such fund in Walker's
poseession, and, therefore, no spondulix to
enrich the correspondent. The correspondent
thereupon changed his tone, said he would pitch
into the job generally, and use all his influence
to defeat it. Re further said he would call upon
Walker himself and speak with the latter on the
subject. Mr. Stanton informed Walker about
the conversation_ with the correspondent, and
Walker told Stanton to tell the aforesaid (ar
reeptindent 'that If be ventured to call upon
him (Walker) he would kick him out of hie
(Walker's) , office.

Jr(Allison and Brownlow
&Knoxville correspondent of the Cincinnati
Venereief states that Gov. Brownlow will re
his position as" Executive of Tennessee, to
ta effect about the 26th of February, when ho
wilt proceed to Washington to take his seat in
the Senate on the 4th of March next as the suc
cessor of Mr. Patterson; but he is so feeble In
health that he will hardly be able to take a very
salve part in the deliberations of the Senate. It
id, said' that he has been 'confined to
ids rooln nearly all - the time during the
past eighteenutouths. The Hon. •De Witt Son
ter,'the Spejtker-.0-the-Tennessee Senate, will
sticteedlilr-Arthvnlow as Governor for the unex
pired terme Mr. Seater has been many years in
public IVe In Tennessee, is a man of good ability,
seems to enjoy the confidence of his constituents
and of his party, and will probably prove a suc•
Ossful Executive. The next election for Gov
ernor takes Once in August next, and Col. Stokes
'stanch talked of as the Republican candidate;
but ' should Mr. Senter's administration
Prove a successful one he may
be ^ selected as the standard-bearer.
If ,we may believe the outgivings from Washing
ton„ Nashville, and various other quarters, it is
the Intention of Andtew Johnson to be the
Democratic candidate for Governor; and if it be
trne,lhat he desires the nomination, we can see
no possible reason why he should not have it.
According to a Nashville correspondent of the
Louisville (Ky.) Courier-Journal, Mr. Johnson has
Written to his trier de in Tennessee to say that he
be a candidate for (I overnor.and that he is ex
pected to arrive in Nashville about the middle of
March. The same authority states that his plat
form will consist of "universal amnesty and im
partial suffrage." Colonel Stokes is a first-class
shin:per, and A. J. has a style peculiarly uleasing
to the Democracy (including the Ku-Klux) of
Tennessee and such like Ste es. A canvass fur
Governor__beiw It d Johnson would,
tititotibt;lmr - tilitrelr - one." -- Mr: Johnson's ulti
mate aim is, no doubt, to be the successor of Mr.
Fowler in the United States Senate, the Gov r
norship being merely a stepping-stone to the
more desirable position.

MenuOxu, Va., Jan. 99, 1869.-1 am in recelp
Of a despatch from Goldsboro, N. C., which states
that the greatest excitement prevails at Kinston
iP consequence of the lynching of the five pris
oners there on Saturday night last. The names
of the victims were Richard Nobles, white, and
Robert Grady, John Miller, Kader Herring and
Daniel Smith, colored. A person near by the
scene heard the discharging of the pistols as the
prisoners were shot on the bridge, and the heavy
splashes of the bodies as they were thrown into
the river.
Kinston fain a state of siege by the negroes of
the surrounding country, who threaten to liber
ate the remaining prisoners in jail and burn the
town. The whites Eall armed,—w i th such
weapons as swat gland, guarding
their homes. Mktg station the , - sub

Another hotTlble outrage occurred in ( Daplin
county, 'A white man who fired on a party of
'mom attempting to violate thepereons of some
young ladles was murdered in his house the fol-
It:Flying night and his body cut In halves and hung
up in the room in which ho slept. No arrests
have been made in either of these cases. L tw
lessness and anarchy exist in this entire section
of the country to such an extent as to justify the
calling out and arming of the militia by the Gov
ernor. The civil authorities are powerless to
suppress this fearful carnival of crime.

congregation.

ner was notified to hold an inquest on the body.
ISTII.I. Missing.—Mr. Jeremiah Ingley who left

evening of December 7th, is still missing. It will
be remembered that he attended a meeting of a

nothing has been heard of him since. His family
are in great distress at the mystery surrounding
his prolonged absence.

A GREAT ACCOMMODAI•ION.-Mr. G. W. Rus
sell, jeweler, has recently put up a handsome
tower clock on Sixth street, opposite Commerce.
The pedestal upon which this clock is mounted
is thirteen feet high. The dial of the time-piece
faces north and south, so as to afford passers-by
the best opportunity of observing the time. A
peculiarity of this tower clock is, that the move
ment is some sixty feet distant from the dial
plate, and yet the clock is so accurate a time•
keeper that it does not vary a minute in a month.
Another remarkable fact is that while during the
prevalence of a tremendous sleet &ma recently,
nearly all of the large town clocks in the city,
whose dials are unprotected, stopped, the hands
of this one marked the time with its usual cot.-
rectnees. Quite a number of orders have bee.*
received for clocks 91 similar style, for private
individuals, as well ae from -the-Government.

Africa on hunting and exploring expeditions,

evening next. His subject. will be " Lion and
Gorilla Hunting; or, 'Two Years in, Equated:o
A trice." Mr. Dtt Chaillu is a pleasing speaker ;
his knowledge of the many curious things which
he describes is derived from personal observa
tions, and therefore there can be no doubt of their
correctness. The lecture will be illustrated by
maps and paintings, which will materially assist
the audience in fully understanding the many
thrilling adventures of which Mr. Da Chaillu will
speak. The vroceeds of the lecture are to be given
to the Sabbath-school of the North Presbyterian
Church.

Butler versus the Indians.
The Washington correspondent of the Herald
says:
General Butler struck the keynote of real re
form in Indian affairs on Wednesday, when he
declared against any more treaties with Indians
or other men within the boundaries of the
United States, and boldly took the ground
that hereafter Indians, as well as other
people, must be governed by laws. The lazza
roni members and their confederates In the
lobby who live by plundering the government
through the Indian treaty system, grew pallid
with fear and anxiety during the General's re
marks. They must, however, go to the wall.
Every honest man in the nation who has exam
ined the subject Is utterly opposed to further
treaties with ndians. Give them just and whole
some laws, but no treaties.
