NEWS SUMMARY.

The rumors of new appointments to the Government offices in New York City are said to be informal.

The steamers Colorado and City of Brooklyn, from Liverpool for New York, arrived night before last at the latter port with 2,397 emigrants.

A day or two since Mrs. Thomas Fletcher, residing near Havana, Mason County, Illinois, and little girl, were burned to death by the explosion of a kerosene lamp.

The editor of the Mazeppa, a flash pa-

The editor of the Mazeppa, a flash paper, was shot through the head yesterday, on Montgomery street, San Francisco, for a scurrieous article, but will probably not die. The gross receipts of the Union Pacific Railroad for April were $6i0,000, an in- crease of $14,000 on the month. The receipts this month nearly double the month of March.

The boiler of the Columbia, Pennsylvania, rolling mill, owned by Caleb S. Matty, exploded yesterday morning, seriously scalding several employes. One named Mentzer has since died.

There was a grand reunion at Sterling, Illinois, yesterday, of all the regi-

ments raised in the northern part of the state. Ex-Governor Oglesby was the narrator of the day. F. W. Morgan, who was arrested at Rockford, Illinois, last week for forgery, has been identified as the murderer of a man in the southern part of the State recently. He is a desperate villain.

In the United States Circuit Court on Saturday, in the case of J. F. Holmes vs.

Lieutenant General Sheridan and Major ?.A. Page, for false imprisonment and illegal conversion of Property, was declared in favor of the defendants. The case will be carried to the Supreme Court of the United States. The tenth annual meeting of the Indiana Womans' Suffrage Association will assemble in Masonic Hall, Indianapolis,

Wednesday, the 8th day of June, at (?) clock A. M., and continue in session (?) days. Eminent speakers will be present.

A fatal riot and shooting affray occurred in Madison about 7 o'clock last evening. John Gavin, an Irishman, got into a difficulty with a miller by the name of Messmere and struck him. Messmere, who is a quiet and peaceable

man, immediately put himself on the defensive, and the two clinched each other. The result of the fight was that

Marshal Wheadon, arriving at the scene of the conflict, was compelled in self-defense to shoot Gavin. While a party of ladies and gentlemen were enjoying themselves at a pic nic a few miles from Colfax Station, on Saturday, the dwelling house of a Mr. Thomas, a short distance from the grounds took fire. The children (aged respectfully, eleven, eight and two years,) were staying in the second story, and the older ones, frightened at the flames, ran down stairs, leaving the babe in the upper room. The picnickers hastened to the scene, and upon their arrival, found the house enveloped in flames. In the confusion the babe was not missed until the stairway was almost consumed, and neither parents nor friends of the child seemed willing to risk an attempt to save

it. At this stage of affairs, Mr. H. C. Holt, of Chicago, hastily inquired the location of the room in which the child was left, and wrapping himself in a quilt, dashed up the burning stairs, found the almost suflfocated child, and brought it out safely. He had scarcely emerged from the house when the stairs fell, and immediately after the room and second floor followed. Mr. Holt was severely burned, but the child was not at all injured. Too much praise cannot awarded Mr. Holt for his heroism.

The Republican Party.

The New York Times thus forcibly and truthfully pictures the future of the Republican party: "The same growth and development

which have hitherto marked the brief life of the Republican party, will attend in the future. The idea that such a party, composed of such elements, can have already completed its mission, is preposterous. Changed as the political situation of 1872 will be, the party will easily conform itself to it, as it responded to similiar requirements in the past. The process is already going on. We are clearing away the debris of the rebellion(?), letting it drift from us. The (?) that old issues have been decided does not necessarily affect the vitality of the party. New issues are supplying their places, and new ideas and new measures are urging us forward."

We have faith that the party will (?) itself to the requirements of the (?), and develop a policy which will be productive of harmony in its ranks. We do not cling to the past, but must move in obedience to our destiny, and to spirit of progress which controls our

Our German citizen's find strong de(?)ers of their own race in the House, capital replies were yesterday made Messrs. Degener and Finkelburg to insulting reflections of foreign citizens by Mr. Voorhees, in the late excit- (?) debate on the mission to Rome. (?)se speeches were manly, dignified, though in response to very offensive (?)sions on the part of Mr. Voorhees, (?) courteous throughout. But the (?)ocrats could not refrain from adding (?)tional insults to the race' and Mr. (?) Cox, ever ready to lead off in (?) matters, suggested that the Demo- (?) member of German descent, Mr. (?) be permitted to reply in German. - N.Y. Tribune

THE FENIANS.

Escape of a Head-Center - Search for Arms—Gen. Donnelly Under Arrest. MALONE, May 31.—Last evening the deputies of Marshal Quinby accompanied by a military guard, searched the Roman Catholic Church, parsonage and outhouses for arms, but nothing was found that in any way compromised the pastor.

Trains left for Pottsdam Junction carrying Marshal Quinby and one of his deputies, and prisoners Lindsley, Donnelly, Powers, Cullen and Gleason, who go to Canandaigua jail.

Colonels Kennealty and Thompson and Capt. Glass remain. The train carried away about 200 Fenians.

The escape of Edward J. Maurix, Fenian head centre, has caused extra precautions against a similar attempt by the remaining prisoners, and Capt. Harlan, in command at the guard-house, states that the first man who moves two feet beyond the sentry lines will be shot down without mercy by the guard. The efforts of United States troops and the Marshal at recapture of Maurix have up to this time been futile.

The United States Marshal has determined to arrest every Fenian officer he can find.

Yesterday a Major in the Fifth United States Artilery pointed out Colonel J. Cunningham, of Albany, N. Y., to Deputy Marshal Perry, who arrested him and remanded him to the guard-house. ST. ALBANS, May 31.—J. Boyle O'Reilly, the Boston Pilot's importer, and who, it has been said, was one of O'Neill's officers, has been discharged.

The remains of Rowe, who was killed in the Richards' farm fight, were disinterred to-day by consent of Canadians and forwarded to his mother.

The body of O'Brien, killed in the same engagement, was also forwarded to friends.

General Donnelly was removed from Franklin to St. Albans this afternoon and is under arrest.

ALBANY, May 31.—Col. J. B. Leverich has been authorized by Gov. Hoffman to proceed to Malone immediately and furnish transportation home to all strangers in and about the place.

Hon. Wm. M. Tweed advances money and authorizes Col. Leverich to send home, at his expense, all belonging in the city of New York.

WASHINGTON.

Samana - National Holidays - Almost an

Accident - Bill Enforcing the 15th Amendment Signed - Excitement Over the Coming Municipal Election Meeting of Executive Committee of the Union League. WASHINGTON, May, 31.—The Government has official information that a first class European power possessing only a tew sea ports, has offered to the Dominican government $27,000,000 for the bay of Samana, in case the treaty now pending between the United States and that government is not ratified by the Senate.

The President, to-day, signed the bill to enforce the right of citizens of the United States to vote in the several States, and for other purposes.

The President sent a secret message to the Senate to-day, proposing amendments to the San Domingo treaty; also extending the time for exchange of ratifications to July 1st.

The House Committee on the District of Columbia have decided to report a bill declaring Christmas, New Year's, July 4th, and Thanksgiving Day, national holidays.

The Ways and Means Committee made a report this morning on the tax bill.

The funding bill was not considered. General Garfield, Chairman of the Banking and Currency Committee, says that it is anticipated that the committee

will give way on his currency bill, in order to have the House dispose of the tax bill. He does not expect to get his bill

bill. He does not expect to get his bill up for three or four days yet. Supervisor McDonold telegraphs from Little Rock, Arkansas, that the Indian tobacco seizures were decided on the 13th instant at Van Buren, before Judge Caldwell, and that all the property seized is forfeited to the Government and all the parties indicted. The tobacco ring is utterly crushed.

Judge Caldwell instructed the jury that the laws of Congress are paramount to any treaty, whether domestic or foreign, and that all internal revenue laws relating to tobacco, extend to all persons in the Indian Territory. The jury without leaving the box, found a verdict for the Government.

President Grant will probably leave here Wednesday night or Thursday morning for Pennsylvania, to visit Senator Cameron, where he will remain two or three days.

The Ways and Means Committee are engaged in consideration of the revenue tax bill, which will be reported to the House this week. The funding bill will occupy the attention of the committee after disposition of the above bill is made.

The Committee on Reconstruction held no meeting to-day, a quorum not being in attendance.

The National Executive Committee of the Union League of America met. here to-day, ex-Governor Newell, of New Jersey, presiding. Thomas G. Baker, of New York, is Secretary. Among those present were Hon. J. T. Asher, of Missour;i Charles A. Thompson, of New York; Thomas Rice, of Maryland, and Hon. Wm. B. Stokes, of Tennessee.

A telegram was read from Gov. Geary, of Pennsylvania, regretting his inability to be present.

Encouraging reports were read from Arkansas, California, Florida, Kansas, Kentucky, Georgia, Maryland, Michigan, Missouri, .New Jersey and Texas. The report from Texas was especially important, showing that the League was rapidly concentrating Union men, and anticipating important results at the coming August election.

A letter of great interest was presented from Gov. Ashley, of Montana. The action had in regard to the work in various parts of the Union on the financial condition of the League was reported encouraging.

The National Secretary was instructed tp proceed at (?) Kentucky and other parts of the Souith. and. Southwest on an important political mission.

J. L. Hedges, of Little Rock, received a similar mission. The ex-Committees in the various States were directed to place themselves at once in official communication with the Central Committees of the Republican party in their respective States for co-operative action.

The place of Waldo Hutchins, of New York, as declared vacant. Speeches of much interest were made, and the Committee adjourned to meet at the call of the Chair next month.

As General Porter, the President's Private Secretary, was leaving the Capitol this evening, or as he ascended into his carriage, the horses became unmanageable and dashed down Capitol Hill at a fearful rate. They were checked with some difficulty. Other than the injuries sustained by the vehicle, no damage was done,
