Kansas City, Dec. 5. —The Journal's Albuquerque, N. M., special says: “At Union, near Mesilla, on Tuesday last, Aligo Garcia died under circumstances which led to the suspicion of poisoning. His wife has since confessed that she murdered her husband by putting arsenic in his food. About a year ago, she, an attractive senorita of good family, married Garcia, but continued, clandestinely, to receive the attentions of Jose Mannete. a former lover. Garcia’s presence being irksome, they at last decided to put him out of the way. Mannete accordingly procured the drug,audit was administered by the woman. Both are now in jail. Held for Matricide.

Some Sense About Stoves, lialteuton News. • New-fangled ornamental stoves, as intricate ii3 a steam engine and more wasteful of coal, are pronounced to be a mistake. One hundred pounds of coal might be burned in a stove constructed entirely of mica without radiating heat enough to comfortably warm a small bed-room. A considerable portion of the outer surface of these stoves which is not mica is nickel, copper or silver, rendered very smooth and highly polished. If one should seek, by careful study, observation and experiment, to find materials that would radiate tiie smallest amount of heat, he would {finally select the substances named, and would finish them in the manner they appear in the modern parlor stove. The remaining parts of the stove which require strength, are made o e iron, it is true, which is, when rough, a very good radiator. In the stove, however, it is highly polished or covered with plumbago, which is rubbed till it is as smooth as plate-glass. In this condition it is a very poor radiator of heat.

LOSSES BY THE FLAMES. Destructive Fire at Colioos, N. Y., Burning Several Iron Mills. Loss About Four Hundred Thousand Dollars with Very Little Insurance—Fires at Other Points. THE COnOES FIRE. Rolling-Mills Burned, Entailing a Loss of Nearly Half a Million, Cohoes, Jan. s.—The rolling-mills of Morrison, Colwell & Page are burning. The Pilot Mills of r. Gugertv, and the tubingworks of A. G. Curtis & Cos., are in danger. A high wind is blowing. A later dispatch says the rolling-mills area total loss, and the Pilot Mills are burning fiercely. Subsequently, the fire was got under control. Morrison, Colwell & Page’s rollingmill, O’Brien & Powers’ knitting-mills, and the Pilot Mills were totally destroyed. The loss exceeds $250,000; insured for two-thirJa. The fire originated in the wheel pit of the rolling-mill. Work was suspended last Friday for repairs, and was to be resumed this morning. During the severe cold last night the wheel was frozen in the pit. The engineer began thawing it out by the usual process, whei£ by some accident, the oil caught fire and the flames spread with most wonderful rapidity. The firemen did splendid work, and successfully diverted the fire from the central portion of the city, which includes the great knitting manufactories. A more rapid fire never was seen.. Inside one hour from the time the oil took fire in the wheel pit, the entire works had been consumed, ar.d nothing was left but the furnaces and their chimneys. The flames drove the workmen away so quickly that they had no time to think of drawing the furnaces, hence the loss is much greater than it otherwise would have been, as the iron will have to cool in them and they will then have to be taken apart. The total loss on the rolling-mill is now estimated at $500,000; the insurance is about $75,000. The flames were driven to the Pilot Mills, which were soon enveloped. The fire ran riot through the oily and combustible material, and communicated from one story to another with great rapidity. Within five minutes this immense brick structure was totally enveloped in flames and the firemen utterfv helpless to stay their progress. Soon a gasoline tank exploded, rending and leveling the walls. Loss on Gu.srertv’s mill, SIOO,000; insurance $75,000. O’Brien & Powers’ mill occupied a portion of the Pilot Mills building, and is involved in the general ruin. Loss $350,000; partially insured. Tiie Morrison, Caldwell & Page rollingmills, in which the tire originated, cost, it is claimed, $600,000. Loss on building and machinery, $250,000; insurance extensive and well distributed. Another Rolling Mill Burned. Salem, Mass., Jan. s. —Danvers’ rolling mill, at Danversport, was burned to-day. Loss, $40,000; insured partially.

Jere Black's Letter of Legal Advice to Meu Under Arrest for Fomenting a Strike. Flttaburg Special The following letter from the lion. Jeremiah 9. Black is in answer to one written by Mr. D. It. Jones, miners’ general secretary, in relation to the arrest of Messrs. Jones and Anderson for conspiracy, on information ot the Waverly Opal Company. After a few preliminary remarks, Judge Black says: “Any number of employers may combine together and act in concert to reduce the wajres of their workmen, and nobody lias ever called that a conspiracy. But if the laborers in a shop unite ro increase their wages, and threaten to quit work unless they are better paid, this, according to the old decisions in England and America, is a criminal offense. More recent cases, however, lay down the rule that a body of laborers may as lawfully say what they will take as employers may determine what they will give. Somewhat slowly, and with evident reluctance, capitalists have suffered the judicial mind to reach the conclusion that the employer does not exactly own the workman. If, therefore, the aim of your association was nothing more than to put up the price of your labor to a satisfactory standard and to counteract the natural tendency of other interests to reduce it, you are innocent people, and the court will say so. I infer from your letter that you solicited others to join with you and make a demand for wages as high as your own or else stop work. That was not wrong either. If you had a right, to form the association, you had an equal right to get as many into it as you could, so that outsiders might not defeat its purpose by cutting under. But you did not confine your membership or your influence to your immediate fellows working together with you in the employment of the same master. You went to another mine, owned by other parties, and persuaded, or tried to persuade, the underpaid coal-diggers there that justice to themselves, as well as to you, required tneiu to lay down their tools unless they got the rates generally received in tiie neighborhood. At first blush this looks like intermeddling with a matter which did not concern you. But, in truth, you bad a fair interest in it, because the acceptance of smaller compensation by one man always tends to depress that of another. Your resistance to low wages was, no doubt, weakened by the admission of others near you. This principle is understood by employers. If Scott, and Garrett, and Jewett would agree to reduce the wages of the laborers on their railroad 20 per cent., Vanderbilt’s refusal to do likewise would be a thing of evil example in their eyes, and they would exert all their influence to make him come down to their level. Persons engaged in a common cause, whether it be to raise or lower wages, are entitled to the support

of others if they can get it by fair means. They charge you, however, with getting or attempting to get the concurrence you wanted vi et arm is —that is to say, by force and with arms. If your association went to the other mine in a body or sent a very large delegation.it was not worse than any other big meeting, unless you behaved with unlawful violence. Our institutions and iiabits rather encourage the peaceable show of numbers as a means of persuasion. All organizations, political, religiousand charitable, resort to it. But you went there, or said you would go, with a brass band. Ido not think this implied violence or any threat of violence. A trumpet or a trombone is not a deadly weapon, and music is not essentially wicked, or else it would not be used, as it always is, in church and camp-meetings. In addition to these charges of conspiracy and riot, you are accused, as I understand you, of bribery. The miners whom you were trying to convert to your way of thinking had agreed thai. they would forfeit $lO apiece if they did not work a full year at the rates of wages previously agreed upon between them and their employers. This penalty for accepting your doctrine and acting upon it they could not pay without assistance. Your association offered to give them the necessary material aid. This does not come within any common law or statutory definition of bribery that I know of. I may have misconceived this whole case. If I have, it is your fault. I take the facts as I gather them from your statement, which does not profess to be perfect or full. But, assuming it to be proximately correct, as a general outline, you are certainly in no danger of being sued, for the district attorney is a gentleman much too sensible to ask a conviction on such grounds. I am, very truly, your obedient servant. J. S. Black. PORTER'S CASE ABROAD. A Borman •Military Critic on the Second Battle of Bull Run. Philadelphia Times. An able and interesting work on the case of Fitz John Porter has recently been published in Germany. Its title is. “Der Feldzug in Nord Virginien ini August, 1862,” and its author is F. Mangold, an artillery officer in the Imperial service. It contains between three and four hundred pages, and has attached to it several carefully-prepared and valuable maps. The author remarks in his preface that such cases as that of Fitz John Porter are fortunately very rare. He adds that it is a very remarkable case for the reason, first, that an officer of General Porter’s ability and high rank should have been accused of treason and disobedience of orders, and should then have been convicted on false testimony and should still have escaped with his life. This is a repetition of what lias been said by other authorities, that General Porter should have been condemned to death or else honorably acquitted, and that the court-martial which tried him stultified itself in adopting the middle course which it did. Secondly, that after it had been fnllv ascertained that so great an injustice had been done to a distinguished and patriotic officer so many years should have been permitted to elapse without awarding to him the restitution to which he is so clearly entitled, the author intimating very distinctly that the treatment which General Porter has received from our government has cast a very dark stain upon the name of the American people. Major Mangold states that his Role object in publishing this work is to contribute his niitc to the defense of a skillful and meritorious officer, who has been cruelly outraged. In scathing terms of rebuke he comments on the course pursued by Generals McDbwell and Pope, neither of whom has gained any distinction except as the defeated commanders in two of the most disastrous bat ties of t’ne war, and lie points out why it was necessary for them to pursue the‘course wh ; ;h they did in order Ln save- Jor tWenicwl ,n v reputation whaiever. The fact that McDowell and Pope, the commanding officers at the first and second battles of Bull Ilun, should have been pe unit ted for the past fifteen years or more to hold the high rank in the United States army which they have done, while General Porter has been disgraced and several other officers of rare merit have been compelled to remain in inferior positions, furnishes a striking comment on the gratitude of republics. Tiie work of Major Mangold, though of recent date, was written some time prior to the appearance of General Grant’s article in the North American Review. Both writers in many particulars appear to have taken the same views of this important case, and the German officer clearly demonstrates as he proceeds with his work that General Porter was for his conduct at the second battle of Bull Run deserving of high commendation, instead of the unjust and iniquitous sentence imposed upon him by the court-martial.

Detroit Free Press. “It agin becomes my painful dooty to announce de sack dat death has invaded our ranks,” said tiie president as the last notes of the triangle died away.

Honolulu Saturday PreiM. Last Saturday evening twenty-nine lepers were sent from the branch Leper Hospital to Molokai by the steamer Mokolil. The steamer anchored off the marine railroad, and tiie lepers were brought from the hospital in drays and taken to the little jetty at the quarantine grounds, from which they were carried in boats to the Mokolil. Tiie re was one Chinaman in the lot; tiie others natives, sixteen males and twelve females. A large number of people were gathered at the hospital to see their friends, and later, at 5 o’clock, when the lepers were taken to the steamer, they assembled on the shore to bid the unfortunates a last farewell. There was considerable walling by those on shore, and the parting scene was an affecting one. Mayor Kdson to Salmi Mors©.

NEWS BY ATLANTIC CABLE. The Palais Bourbon Still Thronged with Admirers of Gambetta. The Swollen Rivers Gradually Declining —No Cause for War Between Germany aiul Russia—Cable Notes. Paris, Jan. 5. —It is estimated that 15,000 persons yesterday visited the Palais Bourbon, where the hotly of Gambetta is lying. The cabinet council has invited the commanders of army corps and judges to attend Gambetta’s funeral. In consequence of the New Year’s fair on the Boulevard, the funeral procession will pass through the Rue de Rivoli, the Boulevard de Sebastopol and the Rue de Turbigo. The entire front of the Chamber of Deputies is draped in respect to Gambetta. The number of wreaths sent to be placed on Garabetta’s coffin exceeds 2.000. Over one hundred deputations from the provinces will attend the funeral. Eight orations will be \ delivered at the entrance to the cemetery of Pere La Chaise. Among the speakers will be the Minister of Justice, representing the government, and Peyrat, vice-president of the Senate, representing that body. The statues in the Place de la Concorde will be veiled to-morrow. The troops will march past Gambetta’s coffin at the gates of the cemetery of Pere la Chaise. Duclerc, President of the Council, is nn- j well, and will be unable to take part in the funeral ceremonies. Lacour will speak in behalf of the government of national defense, Chatour for the Alsace-Lorraine Association, and Kable for the Alsatians. Pere Hyacinthe will preach the funeral sermon on Sunday. The gas and electric lamps in the Place do Concorde will be lighted and veiled with crape on Saturday. There will be funeral services at Nice on Tuesday, the municipality bearing the expense. One hundred thousand persons viewed the coffin on Thursday and Friday. The Paix denies that Gambetta’s death lias produced any great change in the foreign policy of the republic, which neither desires nor fears war, and adds: “If forced into it by the action of any power, France would undertake it without, as it would have done with Gambetta.” A Berlin disnatch states that the Provincial Correspondence concludes a warm tribute to Gabetta thus. “It is our right and duty to pay testimony to the greatness of this i extraordinary man, whom we have learned to know in honorable combat, and whose future destinies we followed with the respectful sympathy which he compelled alike from friends and foes.” La France asks: “What has France done to Death? Has Bismarck signed a compact with it? General Chaucv’s death is a great sorrow. The Germans feared him as they dreaded General Skobeleff.” A Disgraceful Encounter. Paris, Dec. s.—To-day, while Paul DeClere was watching by the side ot Gambetta’s catafalque, Mayer walked into the room. De j Clere said: “You have no right to approach | the coffin of the man you insulted during I life.” With these words he struck Meyer, who returned the blow. Bystanders separated them. Death of Gen. Chanzy. Taris, Jan. s.—General Chanzy, the wellknown French general and life senator, died suddenly on Thursday night. General Chanzy died of apoplexy, at Chalons. He will be buried there. Tiie papers deplore his death, uniting his memory with that of Gambettn, the latter being described as the soul and Chanzy as the sword of resistance to the German invasion.

Milan, Dec. 5.—A newspaper having opened a subscription for a monument to Overdank, the proprietors have been warned that the journal will be sequestrated if tiie subscription list continues to be published, and a penal action commenced against the subscribers. An Overzealous Official. Lima, Jan. s.—The Peruvians are indignant at Minister Logan’s letter to Montero. They say that Mr. Logan, being minister to Chili, and not to Peru, had no right to address an official communication to Peru, and that his letter really postponed peace. No Occasion for a Conflict. Berlin, Jan. s.—The North German Gazette reproduces, with approving comments, the remarks of tho Moscow Gazette, that neither on Germany’s nor Russia's side is there reason for a conflict, even in the distant future. A Thorough Failure. St. Petersburg, Dec. s.—The municipal bank of Safojok has failed. Tiie liabilities are probably some millions of roubles. The asset ~ exclusive of furniture, are only twen-ty-nine roubles. Death from Starvation. Dublin, Jan. 5.—A husband and wife have starved to death at Ballinnsloe. Cable Notes.

PETERBOROUGH CATHEDRAL. Oll© of the Most Venerated and Beautiful Structures of England. Peterborough Cathedral, the central tower of which is to be demolished, is one of the finest religious edifices to be found in England. It was built upon the site of the old monastery founded by one of the Mercian thanes, Saxulph. The Danes, during one .of their periodical marauding excursions into England, about the year 870, attacked the building, and, after a protracted siege, battered down the walls, slaughtered the priestly inmates, and set fire to the cathedral itself, causing its complete destruction. King Kthelwold, surnanied by his subjects "The Skillful Architect of (rod.” rebuilt the place some year* afterward, and it remained intact *vntil the year 1110, when, as had been proph-

esied by Egelic, the Bishop of Durham, it was again completely destroyed by fire, John of Salisbury, a noted abbott, in 1818 commenced the foundation of the building of to-day. Tiie grandeur of its outline so greatly impressed the country folks in the neighborhood that they christened the new cathedral “Peterborough, the Proud,” and the principal features of the building as it was then, the massive column in front, and magnificent arches, over eighty feet in height, have survived the inroads of modern improvements, and reas they were originally planned and executed by the Twelfth century architect. Tiie cathedral consists of a large nave, with side aisles, with a choir terminating in a semi-circle at the east end; while the side aisles make a complete circuit of the building. The transcept was designed by Sir Reginald Bray, and the central tower was built by Abbott DeWaterville. The latter piece of work, however, had to be reduced by three stories some years ago, as, in the opinion of competent judges, its fall was only a question of time. Peterborough was often made a resting-place by English sovereigns as they journeyed to and from the North. Edward lIT. held the Easter festival there with his queen in tho 1327, and the little entertainment cost the Abbot of the Cathedral $2,500. Cardinal Wolsey celebrated tiie same feast thereon a more elaborate scale 200 years afterward. The body of Catherine, of Arrar gan, tine first wife of Henry VIII., lies between two pillars near the altar, and lovely, but unfortunate. Mary Queen of Scots rested there until her subsequent removal to Westminster, where she now sleeps, long forgotten. The cathedral underwent some terrible usage at the hands of Cromweil in 1643. It was utilized by him as a stabling place for his soldiers’ horses, and the troopers *tore down valuable monuments, and ruthlessly destroyed many priceless relics of past ages in their puritan fury. One of the soldiers, it is said, having discharged a musket shot at the statues of tiie four evangelists that stood above the communion table, was struck blind by the rebound of his own bullet.
