Orhk 1878 Governor H, 11.S7S 2,7 187 Governor M.JW 13.S1 The rst returns, received on the night of the election, indicated the election of Ueek, Republican, awl increased Republican majorities. Lulu George, the young lady who shot herself at Cincinnati on account of tin; death of her lover, it Is now idated is likely to get well, notwithstanding the doctors declared her wound wag mortal. Twe negroes, Tom Jones and BUI Reareon, were , recently banged by a mob at White's Creek, in Davidson County, Tenn. They had, as stated, confessed to the murder of Dick Woods, a storekeeper, on the 27th of September last A daring ami successful train robbery was perpetrated at Glendale, Mo., a small station on the Chicago and Alton Railroad, 13 miles oast of Kansas City, on thenUcht of the 8th. The through express train bound east, which left Kansas City at 6:40 p. m., wass stopped by signal at the place named, and surrounded by a party of about 18 or 'JO masked and armed men, who compelled tlte train men to keep quiet while two of them entered the express ear, knocked down the messenger and took from him the key of his Hafc, which they unlocked and rifled of it contents. They rode off without motestlH any of the passengers. The action of the robbers showed that the plan was well laid, ami the schemfc was? certainly well executed. Two of the gang are reported to have gotten on the train at Kansas City, taking feat in the chair car, awl, upori arrival at the station, they rushed into the front car and com menced firing. Some twenty shots or more were Hred. but nobody was wounded. The amount of money secured by the robbers i variously estimated at. from fi,W0 to 40,000. The United States KxprteS Company, who are the victims of the robitery, state that $6,000 in currency was taken, together with some valuable securities not negotiable, however. The Express Company offer a re ward of 5!,r00 for the capture of the robber., in addition to which the Chicago and Alton Railroad Company will pay $1,000 each for their apprehension and conviction. No traces of the mining St. boat balloon -htfl, Prof. "Wise awl (Jeorge Burr, had been found up to the 10th. The balloon wan seen by two men at illllcr'rf Station, near Chicago, on the Lake Shore and Michigan Southern Railroad, on the night of the day the ascension was made. It was apparently about a mile high and traveling rapidly In a northeasterly direction towards Hake Michigan. Thte hi the latent reliable information concerning the lost " Pathfinder." TheChiekaaw Guards of Memphis carried off the first prize for the best drilled military company at both the St. Louis and Columbus (O.) Fairs. A courier arrived at ltawilns from 3Iilk River, on tb8th, bringing the weleomc intelligence that Capt. Payne and his beleaguered troops bad been relieved by Gen. Merritt, whose command reached them on J the morning of the 5th. Captain Dodge, with a company of the Ninth Cavalry from Bear Creek, had previously succeeded in Joining Capt. Payne's command, reaching them on the morning of the 2d. The little band was hemmed in on all cide, the Indians occupying r the surrounding heights ami rending: a bullet after every man who had the temerity to show his head. Every horse wa shot down, as the animate could not be protected. Sallies for water were made every night, a distance of 900 yard from the intrenchment, and were attended with great danger. Gen. Merritt encountered no hostile. Ills march to relieve the beleaguered troops was a great military achievement. On the find day hi command made 40 m He", and on the second day m miles.

A serious collision occurred on the MIchi- ! 811,1 "' MH1 'Jesse was shot and killed while gan Central Itallroad, a short dhtance east of.) 0,1 !bo Way to we his wounded father. At Jackson, about 1 o'clock on the morning of I last account t he llolhrook party had the Vhtlw 10th, by which a number of lives were i derwood houc surrounded ami threatened

lot and many persons Injured. The Pacific Express train, composed of seven sleepers, four day conchea and mall and baggage-ears, left Detroit 40 minutes late, and w running at a high rate of ipeed, when it came Into collision with a switch-engine standing on the main track, The tender of the express locomotive was telescoped into the Imggageoar about half It length, and thli forced Its way Into the mall-ear. The first passenger eoaeh was thrown off from the track and escaped with comparatively slight tajurios; the second ami third eeaches were smashed to atoms; the fourth eoaeh w not badly damaged, and the 8leeplH,'-eoaches remained Intact. The oeeupantg .of the forward oar were nioMly emigrants and second-claws passengers, a large number of them being Frenoh-Cana-

dlan woediuMer, en route for the pineries. Roth loeomettvw were demolished. The engineer ami fireman of the paeger tram were both tnUatly killed; tluwe of the switch -engine escaped by jumping Just in time to ekutr themselves. The responsibility for the aechkmt seems to rest between the Yardmaster and the engineer of the switchengine. The number of pasengers killed was from 1& to 'JO; the wounded numbered about as many more. General Grant left San Francisco for Oregon on thefHh. A project Ih en foot for the extension of the St. Louis and San Francisco Railroad from Vlnita, its present western terminus, to some point in New Mexico, say a distance of 000 miles, where it will connect with the California Southern, now extending Its line oastward in that direction. Judge Henry Ilayden of the Wood County (Wisconsin) Court, a politician well known throughout the State, candidate for Attorney-General on the Greenback ticket two years ago, was shot and killed at Centralis Wis., recently, by W. II. Cochran, Cashier, of the First National Rank. The affair grew out of an alleged intimacy on the part of Ilayden with Cochran's wife, the scandal being one of long standing. Cochran had separated from his wife some time ago, although no divorce had been obtained. The weapon used was a shot-gun, loaded with five buckshot, the entire charge penetrating the right side of the victim, killing him instantly. No words passed between them, so it is supposed the killing was premeditated. Another life-tragedy was enacted at Cincinnati on the 32th, in which a woman was again the leading actor. Mr. S. M. Ilickey, agent for 3Iary Anderson, the actress, was shot through the head at the Rurnet House by bis discarded mistress, a young woman named Florence McDonald, who then put the weapon to her own head and blew her brains out, dying in ten minutes. "Hickcy's wound was thought likely to prove fatal. Miss. McDonald was a native of Syracuse, N. Y. Her parents are respectable people and she was educated ami accomplished. Her liaison with Ilickey began about a year ago. ne says that she was a rather fast young woman when he met her and that he never had any Idea of marrying her. She, however, it seems, was jealous of his) reported attentions to other ladles, and insisted that he should make her his wife, and to attain this object she had followed him about the country like a Nemesis. Refore shooting him she exclaimed: " He 1ms scorned me; he must die!" Two officers from Gen. Merrltt's command arrived at Rawlins on the 13th. Merritt had a sharp fight with the host lies on the same day he joined Payne, after which he moved forward towards the White River Agency without furtheroppositlon, reaching there on the 11th. The Indians retreated southward, and it was believed they would scatter and drop into the various Agencies, thus rendering it difficulty not impossible in m uiy cases, to tell who were the warriors engaged in the fight with Thornburgh. On arriving at the Agency the dead bodies of Agent Mocker ami otheremployees were found. Mr. Meeker was shot through the head and his body somewhat mutilated and stripped of all clothing. There were no traces of the women and children, and the liorriblc presumption is that they have been taken away to beheld as bo-tage. Some 10 or 12 IkkIIcs In all were found and burled by Merrltt's command at the Agency oralong the road to that point. At a meetlngof the Executive Committees of the State Granges Patrons of Husbandry of the Northwestern States, held in Chicago recently, resolutions were adopted denouncing the railway companies for their recent advances In freight rates, which arc declared to bo " unjust ami not warranted, and which are robbing the producer of the late rise In the value of his products." It was further resolved that combined action lie taken looking to the regulation by law of railway freight and passenger rates, and ef

forts will be made to secure favorable action by thcvarlousState Legislatures at their next sessions. The new railroad link connecting Omaha With St. Louis is completed. Omaha Is now 100 miles by rail nearer St. Louis than Chicago. The consolidation of the St. Louis, Kanas City and Northern and the "Wabash Railways has been formally effected by vote of the stockholders of the respective companies. The consolidated road will hereafter be des ignated as the Wabash, St. Louis and Pacific Railway. J. J. Wheeler, editor of the Paris (Texas) limner, was shot dead on the 13th by "Wnt. R. Ronncr, an attorney of that place. It seems that lionncr appeared as attorney for a policeman, against whom "Wheeler had preferred, charges, and made remarks In his speech reflecting upon Wheeler, for which the latter, Ills claimed by Bonner' friends, threatened to hhoot llonnet. The Undcrwood-Holbrook war has broken out afre-h In Carter County, Kentucky. Old man George Cmlerwood was recently shot T .....1 I by one of the I lolbrook iwtrty to shoot any person who should go to the as siManco of tho Inmates. The Governor 1ms ken appealed to for military assistance. Two men, named Stevens and Campbell, were arrested near their homes atlloldcu, Johnson County, Mo., on the 13th, charged with being Implicated in the Glendale express robbery They were taken to the Kan -m City Jail. Many think the James brothers were at the head of tho gang. A dispatch front Denton, Texas, says the robbery was organized by three of the survivors of the famous Sam. Itass gang, Henry Underwood, Frank Jackson and Cal. Carter. Genera! Grant arrived at Portland, Oreg., on the Hth, where he had a most elaborate reception. At Astoria, Fort- Vancouver, and other srtopplng-placew en route, receptions were gotten up In hoHor of the event.

KA8T AND gOUTUKAsT. Peter McManua, a so-called Mollio Magulre, wa hanged at Sunbury, Pa., on tlie JHh, for the murder of Coroner Hesser in 1871.

A number of passengers were Injured, but none seriously, lloth locomotives were completely wrecked. The O'Leary belt has been won by n young man named Nicholas Murphy, who made a score of 505 miles. "RloWer" Drown, the favorite at the commencement of the race, was obliged to withdraw from the track at an early stage of the proceedings, on account of sickness. Young Murphy is an Irish lad whose only training consisted In wheeling bricks In a brick-yard at Haverstraw, N. Y. In addition to the belt lie gets well paid for tho walk, receiving $5,000 In cash. The Governor of Georgia has been called upon to furnish military assistance in suppressing a baud of outlaws In Daldwin County, known as tho "Georgia Tigers." They are said to hold possession of half tho county and to defy arrest. They have killed In the past three years 130 men and women, mostly negroes. Tho Governor sent one of his staff and a number of detectives down, and will send military if needed.

The Conservatives elected are estimated to number 170, and will still require some assistance from the Ultramontane to form a majority. The Chilian and Peruvian fleets have had an engagement off the Mejillones. The Peruvian ram Huascar was captured. The Irish Anti-rent Committee, conslst-sb-ting among others of Parnell, O'Couner Power, and Finnegan, Homo Rule Members' of Parliament, have agreed upon an appeal to the Irlfh race in the colonies and in the United States, to promote the ownership of soil by occupiers instead of landlords, who, the appeal declares, should however bo ful'y compensated. The Mexican PronuncIado, 100 strong, recently defeated a force of TsO Government

troops near Chihuahua, killing Hvc ami wounding a large number. It was feared an attack would be made upon the city. Two of London's famous beauties, Mrs. Cornwall!

He says: Prominent among your object Is to allay the Ill-feeling which may remain bet ween those who followed different flags, so as to unite all In proper efforts for the general welfare of your State. Nothing, surely, could be more commendable than the object, and nothing is let Christian or more uusoldierly than malice and a cherished desire for revenge." Gen.

Dodge, in addition to Ids other qualities, possesses that perfect modesty which should alvrays characterize tho true soldier. His conduct is held up for the emulation of all officers in this department; and will be duly brought to the notice and consldcrat Ion of tho Government." TIIK YKIXOW FKVKR.
