Ceneral B)vet ha3 arrived here from Hanoi. Operations in Ton-uin hare been suspended until the arrival ot reinforcements. The severity of the blockade of Tonquin has been so far relaxed as to allow vessels to proceed to their porta of destination, after being searched for articles contraband of war. A great lack of harmony exists between the. French civil and military authorities at Tonquin. It is believed General Bouet's arrival iueanshis removal from ac:ive ciuiaaad.

A force of detectives hi3 left on a tender to bodr J the Athenian. It is rumored a gunboat will be diepatcbed from the victualling yard to in- i tcrcept the Athenian, and O'Donnell will be landed at the Yard. No suspicious characters have yet been observed in this vicinity, and ; (he extra precautions taken by the authorities will prevent any attempt at reecue. . Later. O Donnell was not taken to Plymouth as anticipated, but landed at Southampton. He maintained an easy demeanor, lie reiterates his former statement 'but in killing Carej he only acted in s-lf-defenc, ard expresses himself as confident of acq aittal. The authorities a, the laai moment decided to take O'Donneli to Southampton instead of l'ljmoath. It is not krown whether this course was tken bfcause of information received by tke police relative to movements of sympathisers with the prisoner. O'Donnell sr-a'es be tsd a pleasant voyage. lie has not beea in irons or handculTed. He was treated vith remarkable kindness, the tracers allowing him to go upon d? ck morniDgi and af :ernoons, and his iruals aerved in his own cabin. O'Donnell bas an Irish cadt ot countenance, and piercing Hack eyes. He shook bands heartily with the detectives who received him from the Cape policemen.

They said the people were leaving that city by the hundreds. Tbere was hardly a bouse but contained some victim of the. fever. The authorities bad given over the work of burying the dead to Indians, who went from house to bouse, carrying off tbe bodies of those they uppoeed to be dead or dying. The bouiv wer buried so rapidly that mistakes occurred, aDd many were put under roun t while itiiriiving. Tbia is mainly du to the disease,- which at a favorable tarn. nit point leaves the patient in a eomatote s.le mistaken by tbe Indian undertakers as dath. The whole city is panic st loken. Kerchanta have closed their auires and cail d (be doors. Restaurants are all closed. No aatiMsnce is obtainable, Rpurt from Hrnorillo state that fever is raging there.

Yesterday Ogletree dashed through Tallapoosa alone at breeck-neck spe ed. but his criru being unknown there no etlbrt was made to detain biru. A few hours later White and a posee cf seven rode into town in pursuit of Octree, and upon learning how near thy were to their came continue! their pursuit on a gsllcp without a moment's delay. It bas fcince been learned thit the boy was last seen in the ;kidnaper'a compnv at Oik Levee, a small place tlfteen mila frim TatU poo&a. The child has been bruUlly bt en and Lis bloodstained clothes attracted so much attention that the villagers became ndipcant and demanded an eiplaoat oa of his condition.

All weu. s (signed) E. A. GartiS';tox. Details of the Losa. The first officer of the Proteus briefly sumir arizes tbe ill fated Proteus' expedition as follows: The Yaniic ond Proteus left 6t. John at 4 p. m., June 2"X The Proteus arrived at Godbaven Bay, P.iico Island, July G. Tbe Yantic arrived at the same place on the 12th. Th&necessary peparations were made, and the Proteus sailed for Cory Island, arriving on the lGth. She left on tbe 2lt, and two days afterward ehe was eruthd, sinking at 7 p. m., July 23. Twenty-nine days were epent in boats. Several storms were encountered, from which the boats took refuge under the lee of ictbergs. Lieutenant Coiwell ard six of the crew parted company with the othfrs at Cape York. Faund the Yantic July 3. Reported that Captain Pike and the remainder of the crew were moving southward. The Yantic reached Cory Island Antuet 2. The same night ehe proceeded to Pandora Harbor, where the records from Pike and Garlington were fosnd. 8be next proceeded south along the Greenland coast, eending boats all around the islands in search of the missing crew. A storm and heavy pack of ice August 9 forced the Yantic to anchor to tbe leeward north of Umberland Island. The next day she bore away for Upernavik, arriving there August 22. Oa the 27 th she started for the Waigate coa. mine?, and returned to Upernavik. September 2 Captain Pike and crew were found and taken on board the Yantic. It seems thai tbe first intimation of the ProUub' disaster was found August 3 at LittleIon Island by the Yantic. Lieutenant Girlinjt'.n left a record there, coming couth, deiciibii g the wreck and indicating the general movement of Captain Pike and the slip's company. On the Ith search was instituted aloi g iLe Greenland coast, from Cve Alex are'er to Cape Roberta, and every point likely to bring up with the retreating party was searched till September 2, when UperraviK was reachd. and the whole Proteus party found in good health and tolerable fpiii's. They were exposed daring thirtyone cays and nights iu their boat?, niacin nine atotpKgea at intermediate haroora The Proteus was crnshed in a do nf ice a 3 o'clock on the evening of tbe 231 of June at d sand within four hours. As the closed Ikta jorled company fortunately aullicieut t me wa- given tu save clothirg, proviins, ccni af-e and other necessities tu what might i rove a protracted voyage. On the 23 u, the boats being equipped, provisioned and manned, the etart was made. The scene of tbe disaster was eiht miles rurlb. north wefet of Cape Sabine, latitude 79 deems 51 minutes north. Over OX) nrls of ice ar d frigid sea were passed betöre lperravic wa resetted. Tbe worst feature in tbe ULfoitunate Proteus expedition ii that to provisions were landed or etches made, ai d 11 fctores intended for the Arctic Colony itlief went don in the steamer. While at archer in tbe Danish harbnr on the 12th of A ugust Governor Elburg camn on board the Yantic and reported that the Dtnish steamer hia lad arrived there from the harbor thirty miles north of C'apn York and the Ca i taii: etated that a native E-qaimaux told bim that two natives with the Greeley expedition anived on sledges Jat winter and related the party all well, except Dr. Pavy, abo tad died. Tbete native wsnt bick to Lady Franklin Bay. Another Esquimaux arm ire fro m Oreeley Camp reported that all the ofiiccrs were murdered by the men. Neither of these reports were reüab'e as tbe fondnees of the E-'pimaix f.;r lying and senHationaiiüm places them in the category t f fie ion. Captain Pike says that as lor north as Cape Sabine thc-re was no trace of Greeley or Lis party, and his failure to c me south to Littleton Itl-tnd and to meet tLe relief steamer this summer leaves grave apprehension as to their probable fate. Tbe Proteus was recreating bonie when the. ice nip overwhelmed h?r. She got barely fifteen iliIcs north of the scone of the shipwreck. The prospects of the Greeley colony enounteiina the rigors of a fourth winter benea h the Arctic Circle are mournful to contemplate. The crews of both ship, the Yaunc ai d Prcteus. are in excellent health.

Kxctted Over a Threatened Outbreak of the Negro Population. Loso View, Tex., Sept. 17. A reign of terror prevails in every portion of the County, except, perhaps, Kilgore, from which place there is no report The excitement is due to a raid on the whites supposed to be contemplated by negroes. White farmers have their wives and children in gin houses and are holding guard over them. In some communities little sleep has been had sine Friday night, and haggard tave. with looks of fear or stern determination, are seen everywhere, and betoken tbe extremities produced bv the blo.d curdling re porta brought in by each new arrival. Hundreds of countrymen were in Longview today, and on returning to their homes carried all the arms and ammunition obtainable. In many caies, w ben a weapon waa called for a member would grab for it as though in despeiation, and ttrive to obtain its possession. A new supply of fifty Winchesters was among what was takeu by the countrymen. It is reported that the negroes received by express at Gladwater, the next station west, fifty Winchesters, and that weapons are being received by them all over tbe country. Probably tbe whole trouble bas arisen from threats and speeches of a few colored persons of bad repute, whose course is cot sanctioned, and waa not known by the mass of the negroes. There are in lica tons that as much fear baa been excited among the latter aa among the whites. However this may be, the people have been carried to arch a pitch of excitement it is certain that should a wbite person be molested one of the bloodiest tragedies will be enacted ever known. jomc imanKK. The Purported atory of Her Polsoalna;. New Yob k, Sept 12. A New naven special to the Times says: Tbe most mysterious character who figured in tbe Malley-Cramer nysteiy two years ago wat tbe individual known as the man with tha black mustache. Many witnesses swore that they eaw such a man with Jennie Cramer, the murdered girl,
tbe two Malley boys and Blanche Dcmelass in their trips at tbe shore immediately preceding the murder, and that he seemed to be on intimate terma with them. In the early stag of the investigation into the circumstances attending the girl's death, every effort waa made to ascertain who the man with tbe black mustache was and where he came from. But the man disappeared so suddenly and completely after the investigation was set on foot that many interested in tbe case were disposed to regard him as a mvth. IL 2d. Bassett, a wealthy manufacturer of Birmingham, arrived home from a trip to Europe a few weeks ago. Unless be is the victim of a gross and motiveless deception he had tbe strange fortune to meet the man with the black mustache in his travels. He it- a warm friend of Edward Malley, father of Writer Malley, and partly cn this account at d partly because he is averse to notoriety, refrained from saying anything about his remarkable adventure. But a few evenings ago to a small circle of friends he related how he met a young man on the raiiwav Main at Brussels late one niht, and traveled itn him to London. The two became acquainted, and it resulted in the stranger ... 'Mug Mr Bassett that he was the mysterious man aith tbe black mua arhe. The man went on to give full details of Jennie Cramer's poisoning. He raid he was in hiding for the firet few dsys. Tbey were looking for bim, and took passage for Germany, being liberally suprlied with money by pirties wi Oie interest it was to keep him oat of the way of the authorities, aud being under agreement not to return to America, he was about to eo to Australia, as be saw a favorable opening tbere. Mr. Baseett parted with him in London. One of the gentleman to whom Mr. Basett told this story says; "Mr. l)as!ett spoke of his adventure in the course of a conversation wbich we had about the strange acquaintances people make when traveling. The man said Uiat the girl was poisoned at the Malley Houe. He claimed that tbe killing of the girl was not intended. She had refused to comply with their solicitations, and Walter fixed up a dose to

In compliance with a request from the Secretary of the Interior, Governor Sheldon, of New Mexico, baa just made a full and interesting report upon the affairs, progress aud development of that Territory. He begins by referriog to the present security of lite in New Mexico, and says, with tbe exception of tbe murder ct Judge McComas and wife, no citizens have been killed by the Indians in the Territory 6ince October, 1S81, and that there are CO signs of hostile demonstrations. Preparations, however, have been mtde'to speedily crush any hostile movement and tbe Indirns are aware of the fact The criminal element has substantially disappeared. Nothing more is beard of vigilantes and lyrch law, and property is safe. The Courts ate able and cüicient; and couvictious when deserved are quite certain at the hands of Juries. As a result of this improved state of affairs, immigration has been reiewed and industry and enterprise prtw day by day. The taxable property of the Tetritorv in 1SS3 amounted to $27 137,Ü03 against $14 ( 554 in 18S1. The taxable value of railroads was fully $13,000,00). but tleyare exempt from taxation for several years to come. If proper care had been exercieed in making uo the returns the Governor believes ;-0. 000 000 instead of $27,000,000 would have been the least value of taxable property. Tbere are in New Mexico 8 000.000 acres of available land, which are highly productive and, not expensive to cultivate. There are alf-o lands enough when developed to sustain 5,000.(00 cattle, 5.000,000 sheep; horses and lilies enough to carry on the business of the country. The great wealth of the country, however, lies in its minerals, gold, silver, copper, lead, iron ' and zinc, and coal being abnndant, tbe resources as yet being undeveloped. Estimates based upon the pell tax returns give the territory a population of 150 00t), of which number three-fourths are natives of the country and epeek the Spanish language. Governor Sheldon at attention to the urgent i eed of a proper school system in New Mexico and to He importance of having a session of tbe Territorial Legislature in Januiry next. He also rrcommendd that Congress create a Special Commission to bear and decide controver ies growing out of tbe defective titles to land, particularly these based or purporting to be based on Spanish, and Mexican grants. Speaking of hf mestead and pre-emption laws he says their operation in that dry and mountainous country bas been to foster Ian monopoly of a mcst objectionable character. Locations are made embracing a spring or extending alorg a stream, and the surrounding lands are valueless to any one but the owners of water. Hence a man who obtains 1G0 acres with exclusive water privilege controls the use cf a vast tract without cost or tax. A Wortblesa ludtvldaal. New Yobk, Sept 1G George A.
