The leading Democrat; et Iowa, after
consultation, have decided that the first
Tuesday in November is the only legal election day for Conm-emmaa in that State, and that the omission of the Governor's proclamation does not deprive the people of Jurisdietion. Representative House, -of Tennessee, in a speech at Nakvllle acknowledging his renomination, declared that "God's own hand 'had elosed the bloody chasm; grander than the victory at Appomattox is the victory won by the people of the North "in their neble contributions to the stricken-South." , A horrible tragedy, being the nturder in apparent eeld blood of an entire family of , feur persons, was enacted on the night of the 38d near Viuoenaes, Ind. The victims of the assassin were a farmer named John IX Vaeelet, his wife, and two sons, aged 14 and IK. The suspected murderer is a Frenchman, named Pierre Provost, who worked for Vaeelet aad occupied a room at his house in company with the two boys. Provost pave the Mrst Information of the tragedy to a neighbor, living half a mile away, to whose house 'he went in his night-clethes, about day-break, saying that the whole family had been murdered, and that he had escaped by Jumping out of a window. An examination of the premises showed that Provosts story was untrue in several particulars. All feur were killed with an ax. The bodies of the two sons were lying in bed, as was aleo that of the mother; the father had apparently been aroused by the noise, and gofeg into the adjoining room to seek the cause, had been stricken down and killed upon the threshold. It Is said that Vaeelet had received about $1,000 in cash for some cattle sold on the day preceding the murder, and this was meet prehably the incentive to the crime. Provost was arrested, and there was oessideraWe talk of lynchmg him upon the The lease of the Denver and Rio Grande i Railroad by the Atchison, Topeka and San-1 ta Fe, takes effect December 1 next and runs i for 80 years. It is stipulated in the a?;ree- ! ment that the Denver and Klo Grande shall I the first year receive 43 per cent, of the gross earnings, decreasing 1 per eent. yearly until the seventh year, when It will receive 8" per eent., at which figure it shall remain for seven years. The percentage for the re
maining time is not stated. One of the additional provisions is that the San Juan silver mines shall be opened through the grand canyon of Arkansas, and the ultimate design is to connect with the Kansas Pacific. This transaction Is regarded as a defeat of Jay Gould, and warm competition with the Union Pacific for freight is predicted.

The Ameer, evidently confident in the material support of Russia, sucms inclined to take the initiative, and has collected a force of 8,000 men at the fort of Ali Musjld, which commands the Khyber P.-s, and is distant some 90 miles from Tumrood, which point Gen. Ross has reached with about 5,000 men. The Itusslans? threaten to advance to the Afghan frontier with an army of observation of 20,000 men. They are already established at Ivizil Arvat, a position considerably In advance of their legitimate frontier, on their road to Merv, an oasis in the Turkoman desert on which Russia has long oat covetous eyes, and which will bring her up almost to the gates of Herat. Russia H steadily retreating from her obligations under the treaty of Berlin In Europe. The premature occupation of Bosnia by Austria has produced a dispute between that country and the Porte, which Russia skillfully embitters. The Sultan now refuses to sign any convention which does not limit the time of the Austrian occupation. The Austrian, having met with a resistance which involved an expenditure of so much blood and treasure, refuse to be bound down to a term, and plainly Indicate an intention of annexing the occupied provinces permanently.
