It : la a "portion of our history -which has remained peculiarly ohscurq until now when illuminated tty these researches. The last volume issued is devoted to the history of La Salle, his wide travels, and his Testis Colony. We extract the absorbing narrative of the death of this sturdy, sagacious, and heroic explorer. The series is handsomely published by Little, Brown ilfCo., of Boston, and for sale in this city by C'laxton, Remsen & Haffelfinger. > The scene is in the region of the Brazos tiyer, in the wilds of Texas, and the date JCB7. ■■■■ , , . Already at Fort St. Louis, Duhaut had in trigued among the men; and the mud admo . ainon of Joutcl had not, it seems, sufficed to >■• divert him from his sinister purposes. Liotot, it is said, had secretly sworn vengeauce against La Salle, whom he charged with having eansedthe death of his brother,or,as N • some will have it, his nephew. On one of the r former journeys, this young man’s strength had failed; and, La Salle having ordered him to return to the fort, he had been killed by Indi ans on the way. The party moved again as the weather im proved and, on the fifteenth oi March, en camped within a few miles of the spot which La Salle had passed on his preceding journey, and where he had left a quantity of Indian com.and beans in cache : that is to say, hid den in the ground, or in the hollow tree. As provisions were falling short, he sent a party from the camp to. find it. These men were Duhaut, Liotot, Iliens the buccaneer, Teis sier, I’ArchevSque, Nika the hunter, aud La Salle’s servant, Saget. They opened the cache, and found the contents spoiled; but, as they returned from their bootless errand, they saw buffalo ; and Nika shot two of them. They now encamped on the spot,'and sent the ser vant to inform La Salle, in order that lie might send horses to bring in the meat. Accord ingly, on the next day, he directed Moranget and De Marie, with the neoessary horses, to go with Saget to the hunters’ camp. When they arrived, they found that Duhaut and his com panions had already cut up the meat, and laid it upon scaffolds for smoking, though it was - not yet so dry as, it seems, this process re quired. Duliaut and the others had also put by, for themselves, the marrow-rhones and cer tain portions of the meat, to which, by wood land custom, they had a perfect right. Mo ranget, whose rashness and violence had once before caused a fatal catastrophe, fell into a most unreasonable lit of rage, 1 lierated and menaced Duliaut and his party, and ended by seizing upon the whole of the meat, including the reserved portions. This added fuel to the fire of Duliaut’s old grudge against Moranget and Iris uncle. There is reason to think that he had nourished in his vindictive heart deadly designs, the execution of which was only has tened by the present outbreak. He, with his servant, l’Arelieveque, Liotot, Hiens, and Teissier, took counsel apart, and resolved to kill Moranget that night. Nika, La Salle’s devoted follower, and Saget, his faithful ser vant, must die with him. All were of one mind except the pilot, Teissier, who neither aided nor opposed the plot. • Night came; the woods grew dark; the evening meal was finished, and the evening pipes were smoked. The order of the guard ■was arranged; and, doubtless by design, the first hour .of the night was assigned to Moran get, the second to Saget, and the -third to Mika. Gun in hand, each stood his watch in turn over the silent but not sleeping forms around him, till, his time expiring, he called the man who was to relieve him, wrapped himself in his blanket, [and was soon buried in a slumber that was to be his last. Now the assassins rose. Duhaut and Hiens stood with their guns cocked ready to shoot down any of the destined victims who should resist or fly. The surgeon, with an axe,, stole towards the three sleepers, and struck a rapid blow at each in turn, Saget and Nika died with little move ' ment; but Moranget stalled spasmodically into a sitting posture, gasping, and unable to speak; and the murderers compelled. De Marie, who was not in their plot, to compro mise himself by despatching him. The floodgates of murder were- open, and the torrent must have its way. Vengeance and safety alike demanded the death of La Salle. Hiens, or “English Jem,” alone seems to have hesitated ; for he was one of those to whom that stern commander had always been partial. Meanwhile, the intended victim was still at his camp, about six miles distant. It is easy to picture, with sufficient accuracy, the features of the scene, —the sheds of bark and bramches, beneath which, among blankets and hnflalo-robes, camp-uteusils, pack-saddles, rude harness, guns, powder-horns, and bullet pouches, the men lounged away the hour, sleeping, or smoking, or talking among them selves ; the blackened kettles that hung from tripods of poles over the fires; the Indians strolling about the place, or lying, like dogs in the sun, with eyes half shut, yet all observant; and, in-the neighboring meadow, the horses grazing under the eye of a watchman. It was the nineteenth of March, aud Moran get had been two days absent. La Salle be gan to show a great anxiety. Some bodings of the truth seem to have visited him; for he was heard to ask several of his men, if Duliaut, Liotot, and Hiens,had hot of late shown signs of discontent. Unable longer to endure his suspense he left the camp in charge....of Joutel, with a caution to stand well on Ids guard; and set out in search of his nephew, with a friar, Anastase Douay, aud two Indians. “All the way,” writes the friar, “he spoke to me of nothing but piety, grace, and predesti nation; enlarging on the debt lie owed to God, who had saved him from so many perils during more than twenty yearn of travels in America. Suddenly,” Douay continues, “I saw him overwhelmed with a profound sad ness, for which he himself could not account He was so much moved that i scarcely knew him.” He soon recovered his usual calmness ; and they walked on till they approached the camp of Duhaut, which was, however, on the farther side of a small river. Looking about him with the eye of a woodsman, La Salle • saw two eagles, or, more probably, turkey buzzards, circling in the air nearly over him, as if attracted by carcasses of beasts or men. He fired both liis pistols, as a summons to any of bis followers who might lie within hearing. The shots reached the ears of the conspirators. Rightly conjecturing by whom they were fired, several of them, led by Duhaut, crossed the river at a little distance above, where trees, or other intervening objects, bid them from sight. Duliaut and the surgeon crouched like Indians in the. long,, dry, .reed-like grass... of. the last summer’s growth, while l’Areheveque stood in sight near the bank. La Salle, continuing to advance, soon saw him; and, calling to him, demanded where was Moranget. The man, without lifting his bat, or any show of respect, replied in an agitated and broken voice, but with a tone of studied insolence, that Moranget was along the river. La Salle rebuked and i menaced him. .lie rejoined with increased in ' solence, drawing back, as he spoke, towards the ambuscade, while the incensed commander advanced to chastise him. At that moment a shot was fired from the grass, instantly fol lowed .by. another; and, pierced through the l brain, La Salle dropped dead. ’ The friar at his side stood in an ecstasy of fright, unable to advance or to fly; when Du haut, rising -from his ambuscade, called out to him to take courage, for he had nothing to fear. Thei murderers now came forward, and with wild looks gathered about their victim, "Tliere tliou liest,great Bashaw! There thou liest!” reclaimed the surgeon Liotot, in base exultation, over the unconscious corpse.

BV JAMES PAKTON, The grand “{Ecumenical Council” which is to beheld next December at Rome, and which promises to be a great event in the history of the Catholic Church, calls attention anew to Pius the Ninth, upon whom the events of his time have so often fixed the regards of Christ endom. The word (ecumenical merely signifies general. The council is to be at tended, 1 believe, by every Roman Catholic Bishop in the world who can be conveniently spared from his diocese and is able to travel so far. What questions are to be considered by it, and how so numerous a body can deliberate at all, no one has informed us. Probably they will be divided into sections, and th<? sense of the whole number will be taken only upon a few of the more important points. Perhaps the question of the Pope's temporal sovereignty will be discussed, and if it is, the Bishops will probably decide in favor of it, if I may judge from the general opinion of Catholic priests in the United States. Many priests are opposed to the temporal sovereignty, but the majority seem decidedly to favor it. Pope Pius the Ninth, who celebrated the other day the fiftieth anniversary of bis. first mass, has had a career full of events striking and memorable. He is an Italian by birth, of noble family, and he inherited from his father the title of Count, as well as a considerable estate. The family has been distinguished in Italy for six hundred years, and has contributed many men of note to State and church. Count Mastai-Saretti was destined to the career of arms, and on leaving college a place was pro vided for him in the guard of Pope Pius the Seventh, to whom he was But be coming subject to epileptic fits, he vras obliged to abandon a military career, and went to Rome to study theology. The reader is aware, I presume, that the goodf things in the Catholic Church in Italy generally fall to the sons of noble families. A Pope is expected to advance his own relations —at least he generally does so, as you and T would, reader, if we were Pope. Before this young Count was admitted to the priesthood, Pius, the Seventh placed him at. the head of l that celebrated oiphan asylum at Rome which was founded by Giovanni Borgi, a poor jour neyman bricklayer; but which is now an im portant establishment. It was a very good appointment, for the Count was a young man of great benevolence, and was particularly fond of instructing children. After his ordination, he continued to preside over the asylum for some years. - His life passea tranquilly away in the per formance of congenial duties, until his thirty first year, when a Papal Nuncio was about to be sent on an important mission to Chile, in South America. The Nuncio asked to be ac companied bv this young Priest, and his re quest was granted. For two years the future Pope traveled about among the missions of South America; and returning home in 1525, being then thirty-three years of age, he was raised to the rank of Bishop. Three- years afterwards he was consecrated Archbishop. Although he owed this preferment in some degree to rank and wealth, and his relation ship to the Pope,’ yet he made himself beloved by the people in his charge, and was conspicu ously efficient in the performance of his duty. He is said to have distinguished himself during the revolutionary ferment of. 1830, in quieting tho minds of his flock and preventing a pre mature and disastrous rebellion. In. 1840, when he was forty-eight years of age, lie was proclaimed Cardinal. At tins period lie was in high favor both with the church and people, and though among the youngest of the Cardi nals, he was frequently spoken of as the pro bable successor of Gregory the Sixteenth. In 1840 the Pope died. In due’ tune the Cardinals assembled to elect his successor. An old school-mate of Cardinal .Mastai proposed his name to the College, and warmly urged his election. On the second day these efforts were rewarded wjth success, and he was elect ed, as it is said, by acclamation.. He took the name of Pius the Niiith, in honor of his rela tion and benefactor, Pins the Seventh. The first Pope Pius died;..in the year 107. He dis tinguished himself in defending the doctrine of the resurrection of the body, and by instituting the festival of Easter; and he was spontan eously called The Pius, by the grateful Church. Ho lived in the reign of Antoninus, who was named Pius, and this, I suppose, suggested the application of the word to the Pope. Pius the Ninth was elected as a reformer, and on ascending the Pontifical throne, he made wonderful concessions to the demands of the liberal party. The church had often been taunted with being an enemy to the pro gress of the race, and the Pope honestly en deavored to do something toward removing this impression. One of his first acts was to appropriate part of his own fortune to paying the debts of the inmates of the debtors’ prison at Rome, lie also distributed $14,01)0 in mar riage portions to poor young girls. Three weeks after' coming to the throne lie pardoned and released the whole body of political prisoners, some thousands in num ber, and this he did Unconditionally. He liext abolished some of the most oppressive distinctions between Jews and Christians, which bad many cenla- , Ties. Poqr Jews were given the same cwin» upon public charity as poop .Christians, anil the Jews,were no longer obliged by: law to live-in one quarter of the city.. He Introduced severe econoiby into his own household, abolished ■useless offices, taxed the priests and religious orders, and thus made the revenue less un equal to the expenditure. He founded sqme schools for mechanics, took measures for establishing a system of universal education, and promoted the culture of rice in the useless marshes of his dominions, Railroads, which Gregory the Sixteenth had, prohibited in the Papal states, Pius the Ninth permitted and en couraged. ' I ■ ;■'. . ■ . “ I cannot'tell you,” wrote a: gentleman, in 1840, from Pome to a French paper not friendly to the Papacy—“ I cannot tell you how agree able life is at Rome at this time. Concord, security, confidence in the' future* beam in the countenance of all the people. Crimes and disorder arc heard of no .more. The example of the sovereign, the fear of displeasing him, have gained all hearts, and ameliorated the lot of all classes. It is impossible for me to say how good the Pope is, how benevolent, how just, how enlightened. No people, perhaps, has'ever had the happiness of ever being governed with so much love, wisdom and paternal solicitude., ;Nothihg cab exceed the veneration and gratitude felt for' the "Pontiff.” Europe heard , this wonderfbl intelligence with much amazement and some incredulity; and the astonishment of; men was unbounded when they heard that the Pope wished to con cede to his people au unshackled press. The popularity of the Pope, however, was not of long duration. He found it infinitely easier to propose than to execute reforms. Tho Cardinals opposed his measures. The princes and nobility of the Papal provinces opposed them. Austria, especially, was a most determined enemy of the Pope’s liberal mea sures, and he proved unable fo carry out his views against an opposition So various anil' for midable. Nor were all the people of the Ro man States satisfied. When the Pope’s re forms were hindered by the Cardinals and their adherents, tho cry arose, and was thun dered into the ears of the Pope by the people as/he passed: “No more priests in the government!” Tumults arose. Ministries were appointed and removed, and one odious minister, Count Rossi, was assassinated in the streets of Rome. The disorder,at length, rose to such a height, that the Pope abandoned Rome, and went to 'Naples, wliere he asked an asylum from the king.' From his retreat near Naples, he ap pointed a commission to- govern the Papal States in his absence, but the Roman Junta re fused to obey it, and declared “the Papacy fallen in fact and in right from the' temporal, power,” and proclaimed a pure democracy under the name of the “Roman Republic.” Never would he have returned to the Vatican as a Sovereign Prince, but for the intervention of Louis Napoleon, who sent an army to re store and protect him. He has been main tained in power ever since by the anus of France. Personally the Pope is extremely popular with almost all classes of his people. He is a man of blameless life and the best possible in tentions ; but he adheres to the ideas of the past, both political aud theological, with a ten acity most wonderful to witness, especially to his power as a temporal sovereign. He is a man of the simplest manners and habits. A distinguished priest of the Roman Church,who spent several months at Rome, a few years ago, tells ns that the Pope and Cardinals asso ciate and labor together in the friendliest and most familiar manner. It is a custom of the confectioners at Rome to send presents of can dies to the Pope, whichjie gives with his own hands to the Cardinals having charge of schools, to be distributed .among the children. Tire same priest assured me that no body of men in the world were more laborious and self-denying than the Cardinals,who have upon their hands the affairs of a Church numbering more than two hundred millions'of people,and to whom complicated affairs and difficult ques tions are continually referred for arbitration. He also asserted that the city of Rome is so well provided with schools of all kinds,that no child can grow up uneducated except by the fault of those who have charge of it. The Pope is now seventy-seven years of age, and he has been Pope twenty-three years. Travelers aS a vigorous old man, of most benevolent and venerable aspect.— Yew York Ledger. ' Incidents In the Overflow of tbs Site A correspondent of the London Times writes “On the night of the 10th of October, owing to the extraordinarily sudden rise in the Nile, an Inundation occurred, which for the celerity with which it rose is, perhaps, without parallel. On this night I happened to be staying in one of the doomed villages. I had therefore op portunities which rarely fall to the lot of an European of witnessing intimately the imme diate effect of the calamity on the poor vil lagers, and I am induced to send you this brief account of what came under my own expe rience and observation as a tribute to the re markable patience and fortitude of the Arabs under very trying and perilous circumstances. “About two o’clock in the morning our Be douin, servant awoke us,saying that the water was rising rapidly. Every inhabitant of the village—many'woman ~or-child—\vas working with an energy seldom witnessed here, making banks to stem the encroaching water, or carry ing their bread and winter supply of grain to spots which had hitherto proved sufficiently ljigh for safety. But it was of no avail. The banks were washed down and the bread floated away. Now, indeed, the'scene began to get_ dispial enough—the darkness, the uncertainty, the wailing of the Arab women; and then came the fall of the first house. This was an • occasion for universal shrieking and lamenta tion, but the water soon had it all its own way. monopolizing even the noise, and nothing was now heard but house alter house surging and coming down with a dull souse into the water. “Our house being higher and stronger than the others, we went to the top and began to construct a raft there, intending to launch it from the roof. AVe were very "soon compelled to relinquish our task, and were scarcely clear when the walls gave way at the water-level and the whole came down, All now made their way, with the water breast high, to the highest spot—fortunately still several feet above the water-level. Here was soon collected every in habitant of the village, but how changed!— the women no longer wailing, and,the men no longer discontented, for the last house, was gone; it was no longer possible to save any thing, and the water was still rising. There was, therefore, nothing for them but to await their destiny, which they set about doing with every appearance of contentment, the village beauties (never seen except at such a time) even seeming, as it seemed to me, to enjpy the state of things as'a relief to the monotony of their existence. “It now became necessary to think of our raft again, so, after making several excursions from our present comfortable standing-place to the site of our late residence, we had collected sufficient wood for the purpose; over this we placed dried corn-stalks and bound the whole together with ropes from ‘the camel-packs. So quickly did the water still rise that our raft, 1 commenced on dry tend, was finished floating on over a foot of water. We now joined the villagers on the little mound and awaited the sunrise. A conspicuous figure was the dig nified old ‘sheikh’ of tlie village, as he passed from oiie family group to another, evidently imparting confidence to all. To : blip we proposed to take off with us as many viomen and children as our raft would bear, but he replied that ‘Allah was' great, and would send boats in time if it was His will to save His people; that our bark was frail, our poles short, and the current strong, and if any went with «s he washed his hands of any re- fponsibility.’ His argument? were backed by Hie sightof a sail in the distance, SO; we Bad to put olfby ourselves to the base ofr the Wlls be tween twfc and" three miles distant. Arrived ’ there, we sent the raft? back by two BedoqittS and made oiir way to whore. some boats tvere employed in carrying stone. One of these we procured for the assistance of our late neigh bors, and we had the satisfaction before leaving ■of seeing them all 'encamped under the hills.” Government Receipts and Expenditures.

SEALED UROEOSALB for furnishing MaU-japcM»nd Keys;of new kinds, to bo sub stituted for the Locks and Keys now used on the United States mails, will be received atthis Department until ifo’clock A. M. the 3d day of FEBRUARY, 1870. It to desirable to obtain Locks and Keys of a new construction for the exclusive use o£ the' United States mails, and, if practicable# Invented expressly for that pur pose'. As the exposure of a model Lock; and Key to public examination would impair, if not destroy, its utility for the mails, the De-, partment prescribes no model for bidders, hut relies for its selection ; on the specimens of mechanical skill and Ingenuity which a fair competition among Inventors, hereby invited, may develop. It is suf ficient to describe > the principal requisites of a Mail-Lock, as follows: iielf- Lockinn uniformity, security, liglUness, strength, durability,novelty of construction and facility of use. Two kinds or Locks and Keys; one of brass and the other of iron, different in exte rior form and interior construction or arrange ment, are required: tli,o Proposals should specify separately tho price of each brass Lock, each Key for same; each iron Lock, and each Key for same. Duplicate samples of each kind of Locks and Keys proposed are required to bo submitted with the Proposals: one of each Sample Lock to be riveted np and finished, and another to be open or unriveted, so that its internal structure and arrangement may ensily heexamined. Every sample should be plainly marked with the bidder’s name, and, if the samo or any part of it be covered by a patent, the date of such patent and tho name of tho patentee must also be attached thereto. The Internal phutor arrangement of the Locks ofl'eretl, and tlje particular shape of the Key requisite to open them, must not ho like any now or •heretofore In use. They must ho warranted not to infringo npon or conflict with any patented invention of which the bidder is not tho patentee. Pre ference will be given to a Lock, the Key of which has not been exposed to general obser vation, or been publicly described, disclosed, or suggested. ■ . A decision on the various specimens And Proposals will ho made on or before the 3d day of M AIIOH, 1870 ; and, unless the Post master-General shall deem ltto bo best for tho interests of the Department to reject all tho Proposals and specimens submitted under this -advertisement (a right hereby expressedly re served to himl,' contracts will be entered into, as soon thereafter as practicable, with tho successful bidder wliosq Locks shall bo adopted, for furnishing similar Locks and Keys for four years, as they may be. required and ordered. If mutually agreed to in writing by the contractor aud the Postmaster- General lor the time being, not less than six months before Us expiration,, the contract may bo extended aud comtinued for an additional term of four years. But on and after the expiration of cither term of tho contract, or on and after its rightful anulmeut at any timo, the Post master-General shall have the right to con tract with..or employ any other party to furnish the same, or auy other kind of Locks and Keys; and if he shall deem proper, to demand and receive from the, late or de faulting contractor all finished or unfinished Keys and the internal parts of the Locks con tracted for, and all dies, gauges, and designs, (which would enable others to make or forgo such Locks or Keys), in tbepossession or such contractor, who, after their surrender to tho Department, shall he paid for the same,at such price as may be ascertained by fair appraise ment. . , The contractor must agree and he able to furnish, if required and ordered, 20,000 Brass Locks and 3,000 Brass Keys within three months from the time of entering into con tract, and 80,000 Iron Locks and tfO,ooo. Iron Keys within ten months from such time. Bat the Postmaster-General will reserve the right to increase or diminish, as tho wantß or inter ests of the service may demand, the quantities of the Locks and Keys above specified, with a proportionate allowanced time to furnish tbem. All the Locks furnished by the contractor must be warranted tojkeep in good working order for two years in the ordinary use of tho scrvico, when not subjected to obvious vio lence ; such as become defective within that time to bo replaced with perfect Locks with out charge. All the Locks furnished under contract are to be, each, distinctly marked « u. S. Mail,” in either sunk or .raised letters, aud all the Keys are to be numbered in the natural order; each Key having its appropri ate number distinctly stamped upon one sido of the bow, and “ U. S. Mail” on tho opposite The contractor will be required to deliver the Locks at his own expense at the Post- Office Department, Washington, D. C., put up on sticks, forming separate bundles of fivo Locks each, arid securely packed In wooden boxes containing not more than two hundred Locks each. The Keys are to be delivered to an agent of the Department,duly a«d specially authorized in each case to take charge of and convey the same from the contractor’s manu factory to tho Department, where both Locks and Keys are to be inspected and approved be fore they shall bo paid for. ■ The contractor will he required to give bond, with ample security, in tho sum of fifty thou sand dollars, to be forfeited to the United States as liquidated damages, in case of his failure to faithfully perform the contract, either as to furnishing tho supplies ordered within a reasonable time, or as to guarding the manufacture of the Mail Locks and Keys ; with due privacy, integrity and care. No Proposal will, therefore, he accepted if*- not accompanied with a bond of the penal sum of Twenty Thousand Dollars,, duly exe- ; cuted by the proposed sureties (whose respon sibility must be certified by a Judgo of a Court of llecord nearest to their place of residence, attested by the Clerk of such Court under tho ; seal thereof), and conditioned for their becom ing responsible as sureties oil the required bond for the fulfillment of the contract, in case such Proposals shall be accepted. The manu facture of Mail Locks and Keys is, of neces sity, a highly important and delicate .trust whioh the Department will confide to no bidder whose Proposals are not also accompanied" with tcstimonials-of good character.. ... In deciding on the Proposals and specimens the Postmaster-General may deem ft expedi ent to select the Brass Lock of one bidder and the Iron Lock of another. -He, therefore, re-v serves tho right of contracting with individuals for such different kinds of Locks;. should he carefully sealed and ad-I dressed to the “Second Assistant General,” and endorsed on the envelope ‘Pro-| “’ “i'oHK A. .T.

One of the wires of the old Atlantic Tele graphic Cable is said to be very slow and un certain. through the work of insects. - The,hark Cuba, from New York, has been wrecked off Holyhead. All her crew but five were lost. ' A disastrous hnrricane has been expe rlenced on the Mediterranean. Among the vessels lost was an American steamer. The British Government has directed tliat the; remains of Mr. Peabody bo conveyed to this country on board a vessel of war. By a, fire at Charleston, Wednesday night, property valued at $50,000 was destroyed, and by one at Chillieothe, Illinois, $10,000; Dr. Temple, despite the opposition which his nomination met with, lias been elected to the Bishopric of Exeter, by the Chapter of that diocese. It is; said that the Pope does not wish to have the question of liis infallibility discussed by the (Ecumenical Council, unless the support of an overwhelmingmajority is probable. The valuable estate of Blanton Duncan, of Kentucky, confiscated during the war, has been restored to him by order of the Attorney-Gen eral of the United States. A rumor that Pere lfyaclnthe would issue an address setting forth bis position towards the Catholic Church has been contradicted by the reverend father. Senators Cattkll and Cameren, Secre tary Robeson and Attorney-General Hoar, and Hons. Charles O’Neill, Henry Wilson and J. F. Wilson arrived in Washington yesterday; The companies that bought the Government railroads in Tennessee while Johnson was President have offered in payment bonds of that State endorsed by the Government. Between 1,300 and 1,400 distilleries are re gistered on the books of .the Internal Revenue Department, but only about 430 are now in operation. A petition gotten up by the Cuban Junta, praying Congress to accord Cuba belligerent rights, is being very numerously signed in New York. A mix removing the disabilities of Judge Frazer, impeached by the last Republican Le gislature, has passed the Tennessee House of Representatives, A party of distinguished army officers wffl go from Washington to Louisville, to attend the coming meeting of the Army of Tenn essee. The two Houses of tire Tennessee Legisla ture, unable to agree upon their diverse amendments to Hie Constitution Conven tion bill, have appointed a Conference Com mittee. Au. facilities at the command of the Navy Department are to be afforded the Cuba and Panama Telegraph Company in making the soundings between the termini of their pro posed line. A policeman has been censured by a New York coroner’s jury for' neglecting to render assistance at the Libery street fire, in whicli a whole family was burned to death. But for his neglect some of the victims might have been saved. Louisville is perplexed by a suit about to be brought by the heirs of John Campbell, to recover possession of 300 acres of land on which a portion of the city is built. Campbell was owner in 17*3, and the property is now worth at least $30,000,000. A difficulty has arisen between the cor poration of Washington and the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad. The company was called upon to raise its track to the level of an im proved street, but refused, when the City Com missioners proceeded to fill up the gap, causing considerable delay to the trains. Legal pro seedings will be taken by the company. A uorLEii in Henderson’s large planing-mill and sasb factory, in Covington, Ky,, exploded yesterday morning, and the wildest rumors of loss of lile were afloat until late in the day. The boiler was situated in a cellar, and four teen men were at work in the shop at the time of the explosion. John Worling, engineer, was killed, but all the others escaped with.only bruises. The building was valued at $lO,OOO, and contained machinery and stock worth $15,000. The loss to the owners is $25,000. V I: —■ — : —— IiCM of WtiallnK Srtiooner Oradnote, of Btarlon, Hass. Bnfm I. tavenr, HMier. On Wednesday, Sept. Bth, at (I o’clock A. M., when in lit. 50 55 N. lon. 73 20 W., com menced blowing heavy gale from southeast, hove the schooner to on the port tack under dose-reef foresail; battened and barred down her hatches; lay about 16 minutes, and took in the foresail and lay under bare poles; at 0.30 was knocked down, lee-boat under water; cut the boat away as the schooner righted; imme diately bent a cable to the weather anchor: let it go, "and payed but 30 fathom cable for a drag ; she now lay very easy; called'the crew all aft for safety; closed up the gangway, and stood by to cut away the foremast; at 7 A. M. was struck by a hurricane, and before a blow could be strode was thrown on her beam ends, all hands clinging’ to the rigging, davits, bearers, &c.; the next gust carried the Weather-boat and nine men away, the boat breaking in two; two of the men got hack by .the aid of ropes, three went off In the wreck of the boat, and the remaining four, being injured or unable to swim, were drowned: there were now nine- men bn the wreck; we soon lashed ourselves to the wreck * and remained in that position until 12 o’clock, when the masts broke off and the 1 schooner righted; batches gone and full of water (nothing but the top of. the house above water) and the sea breaking over that comtinually; about this time tlie gale moderated, and we succeeded in lashing our selves to tlie top of the bouse; about -3 P. M. the wind and sea went down some; we now commenced searching for something to relieve our hunger and thirst, and fortunately found five cans of preserved meats, and went on an allowance of four table spoonfulls per man per day; got up a signal of distress, aud com mitted ourselves to the care of Divine Provi dence; we remained in this position—in a space of 12 feet square—for eighty hours with out water; meanwhile drifted afoul «of-the broken boat, with two men still alive but nearly, exhausted ; succeeded ’in get ting them from the boat to the wreck; we were now suffering from hunger and thirst, the sea breaking on us most of the time, when. at 2 P.M. Saturday, Sept. 11, were taken off " by Capt. J. S. Crosby, Of schooner Ralph Souder, of Eastport, Me,, from Philadelphia to Barbadoes, where we : arrived Sept." 20.

[Tlio Seven Otmrchosof Lonicro.J . , It may be mentioned as a‘contribution towards solving tho riddle, “How do these liuu- I died thousand Street prowlers: Contrive to exist ?” that they draw a considerable amount ' of their sustenance from the markets. And renllv it Would seem Hint, by some miraculous i dispensation of Providence, garbage Was for E their sake robbed of its poisonous properties, ,»ud endowed witli virtues sucli as wholesome food possesses. Did, eVer the reader see the yoiing market hunters at such a “ feed,” say in the month of August, or. September? It. is a | si>ectacle to be witnessed only by early risers, who can get as-far as Coveat Garden by the time that the tvboiesaic dealing in the open : falls slack—which will be about eight o’clock ; rand it is not to be believed unless it is seen. They will gather about a muck-heap and gobble up plums, a sweltering mass of decay, land oranges and apples that have quite lost tlioir original shape and color, with the avidity of ducks or pigs. I speak according to my knowledge, for I have seen them atit. I have .Seen One,of these gaunt, wolfish little children with his tattered cap full of plums of a Sort, one pf which I would not have permitted a child of mine to eat for all the money in the Mint, and this at a season When the sanitary authorities, in. their desperate alarm at tile spread Of cholera, had turned billstiekers, and were begging and imploring the people to abstain from this, that, and the other, and especially to beware of fruit unless perfectly sound and ripe. Judging from the earnestness with which mis last provision was urged, there must' have been cholera enough to have slain a dozen strong men in that little ragamuffin’s . cap, and yet he munched on till that frowsey receptacle was emptied, finally licking bis fingers with a relish. It was not for me to forcibly dispossess tlie boy !of a prize that made him the enemy of his pluinless companions ; but I spoke to the market beadle about it, asking him if it would' not be pos sible, knowing the propensities of those poor little wretches, so to dispose of the poisonous offal that they could not get at it; but he re plied that it had nothing to do with him what they ate, so long as they kept their hands from picking and stealing/ Furthermore, he politely intimated that “unless I bad nothing better to do,” there was no call for me to trouble myself about the “little varmint;?’ whom nothing would hurt. He confided to me his private belief that they were “made inside something after .the orsestrich, and that farriers’ nails wouldn’t come amiss to ’em if they could - only get ’em down.” However, and although the evidence was rather in the saga cious market,beadle’s favor, I was unconverted, from my original opinion, and here take the liberty of uiging on any official of Covent of Farrington Market who may happen to read these pages the policy of adopting my sugges tion as to the safe bestowal of fruit offal during the sickly seasons. That; great danger is incurred by allowing it to be Consumed as it now is, there cannot be a question. Perhaps it is too much to assume that the poor little be ings whom hunger prompts to feed off garbage do so with impunity. It is not improbable that, in many cases, they slink home to die in their holes as poisoned rats do. That they are never missed frotn the market is no proof to the contrary. Their identification is next to impossible 1 ; for they are as like each other as apples in a sieve or peas in one pod. More over, to tell their number is out of the ques tion. It is as incomprehensible as is their nature. They swarm as bees do, and arduous indeed would be the task ; of the individual who undertook to reckon up the small fry of a single alley of the hundreds that abound ,in in Squalor’s regions. They are of as small account .in the public estimation as stray street curs, and, like , them, it •is only where they evince a propensity for barking and biting that their existence is recognized. Should death to-morrow morning make a clean sweep of the unsightly little scavengers who grovel for a meal among the market offal heaps next day would see toe said heaps just as industriously surrounded. nUTEUESTS OF OCEAS B TO ARRIVE. • HIPS FROM POE lowa- —Glugow.-Kew York Oct. 29 Bomma ..........—Hamburg...New York Oct. 30 City of Mexico—YeraCruz...New York— Not. 2 TaHfa..- —LiverpooL-New York via B—..
