The Affairs of (he Finn in Great Confusion, and the Buchanans in Canada. Louisville, Oct 6.—The affairs of the New-•comb-Buclmnan Company are now apparently in a worse condition than ever. The assignee is without money to carry out the trust, and the plan proposed by some of the largest creditors to raise funds by a system of charges on the whisky in warehouses owned by the creditors is so strongly objected to that it is not likely to be adopted. In this event the estate will probably be forced into the chancery court, which will make the final settlement a thing very far in the future and be more costly than if the creditors’ plan of assessment was adapted. In any case, ft now appears impossible for the creditors to obtain the whisky on which they have claims without it costing them heavily. Another letter has been received from Geo. C. Buchanan, proving beyond doubt that lie and Andrew are in Windsor. Canada, opposite Detroit. A Detroit dispatch says: “George C. and Andrew Buchanan, members of the whisky firm, of Louisville, Ky.. which recently assigned, Save been reported to be in Windsor, Ontario. The men seen last are now identified as the missing liquor dealers. Rumor says they visited Walkers distillery, at Walkerville, and have been inquiring into the Canadian liquor laws and the requirements necessary to engage in business. It is thought they are visiting some interior town, as search at Windsor to-day failed to discover them.”

A true bill was found in the Allegheny county courts, and an application for a requisition was granted by Governor Pattison.

Hendricks, the Democratic candidate for Vice-president This gentleman takes the gronnd that Mr. Kcightley is not a fugitive from justice, hut a regular citizen of Memphis.

At the conclusion of his speech Judge Collins, of this place, was called, and owing to the lateness of the hour begged to be excused, but the audience continued to shout for Judge Collins and were rewarded by one of his most vigorous and thoroughly good short speeches.

G.—A special from Providence says tho failure of Emil Dahlheimer & Cos., jewelers, of Cincinnati, has caused much excitement among manufacturing jewelers in that city and Attleborough, who appear to have become involved to the extent of $20,000 to $30,000. From statements from those who are in a position to know, including the manager of Dun’s mercantile agency, it appears that the wholo affair is a deliberately planned swindle. July 28 last Dahlheimer called at Dun’s mercantile agency and made a shoving to tlie effect that he was worth from $20,000 to $.30,000 in stocks and fixtures, and owed between $4,000 and $5,000, which was his wholo indebtedness, lie promised to substantiate the statement, but failed to do so. It has always been surmised that ho was connected with Charles J. and Joseph Steinau. who recently failed, but he made a positive denial. It has since been ascertained the denial is untrue. Among those yl Providence of whom he bought goods, and who have sent them, are J. C. Richardson, Atwood & Colwell, William Hamilton & Cos.. Carr & Williams, John Me Cloy, Charles S. Pine. W. R. Richards, William Butt and Babbitt & Cameron. He ordered largely from others, who fortunately have not sent the goods. It was reported it had been discovered, lately, that he would buy goods heavily here, and almost simultaneously sell them, out West, at 10 per cent, below cost. One of the heaviest losers reported is John Etzensperger, of Attleborough. Failure in tlie Clothing Trade. New York, Oct. G.— J. W. Rosenthal & Cos., dealers in clothing, at Rochester, N.

Cauffman retired in 1870, at which time they showed a surplus of $1G5,000, cf which ho received $50,000 as his share. Moses Kerngood was then admitted, he contributing SIO,OOO, but he retired in March last, taking out the same amount. They had, also, a branch store in A1 bany, under the title “The Rochester Clothing Company.” Rosenthal was the principal partner in the firm of Rosenthal, Kerngood & Cos., of Baltimore. Tho concern always did an extensive business until the past two years. The Baltimore house was never regarded as a paying investment. A Clothing Manufacturer Assigns. Rochester, N. Y., Oct.

Washington, Oct. 6.— “ You would be surprised,’* said Superintendent Gurley, of the freedelivery service, “at the effect which the establishment of the free delivery service in anew city has upon congressional nominations. During the past year we have had dozens df congressmen in here begging us to establish a freedelivery service in small postoffices in their districts, each of whom claimed that this would have an extremely favorable effect upon his chances for a renomination. “There is one tiling about the reduction of letter postage from three to two cents which the residents of small cities do not seem able to understand. Last year about twenty-five offices at which the free delivery service was not established showed receipts great enough to entitle them to this service, but during the past fiscal year, owing to the reduction of lettei postage, tlroso receipts have fall‘n below the necessary $20,000. People fail to comprehend why the law should work against their cities in this respect. This year we have put the service on at fourteen offices so far, and have money enough left for several more.” The Rioting in Mexico. Laredo, Mexico. Oofi. G.—Well-posted parties who have arrived from the interior attribute the real cause of the recent bloody riot in the town of Sabinas to the high state of political feeling existing between the Trevino and Narajo parties, both of which have candidates in the field for the governorship of the State of Nuevo Leon.
