The moment his eyes fell upon the faeo of the dead man a cry of recognition esciipod bis lips.

He said that name ws.s Antonio Sableni. and that he had known the dead man well was Coroso. Ho and Bableni had been employed as laborers on a railroad in Chicago.

CHARLKSTON, S.C., May been received here of a singular quarrel tween factions of a negro church on the islands near Beaufort. Oho point in this controversy was the right to use a certain established place of baptism. March Seabrpok, on whose land it was, denied tho "Independent Baptists" permission to come to his shore, and they, led by the Rev, Mr. Barnwell, got up a baptismal service to test the question. The minister, a negro girl who was the candidate, and two other persons were In a wagon in tne Independent procession which invaded Seobrooli's premises, aml'j wwe violently thrown to the ground by the of the wagon in tnelee which ensued- Hoes, axes, bottjes, sticks and other weapons were used, and the standard bearer of the procession used his staff vigorously.

LONDON, May IB now leiirned that Russian cruisers have bean stationed for gome time past at convenient points in the cutting, Paciflo Ocean in readiness, in tho cnso ot war, to cut the ocean cables connecting England with China, India and Australia. John Fender, M. P. for Wick, and chairman of the Eastern and Eastern Extension Tele- ernph companies, has implored the government to protect the cables of thoso companies, which have a monopoly of the cable business with the Orient, and to repair them incase of damage caused by acts of war. The government has replied that it will do its bent to protect tho property of the cable companies, as of all Englishmen.

The general question of keeping cable communications in the ovout of war Is an tabsorbine subject of discussion in telegraphic circles just now. It is hoped that Russia will abstain from cable owing to free trade which prevails in international ay Russia has an equal right with Emjiana to the use of all the cables. There is, moreover, no danger ot Russia's dispatches being intelligible to her enemies, as the key of the Russian cipher, which Is a mysterious combination of letters and figures In groups of fives, has never been discovered. England would, of course, be as eager as the companies themselves to keep the cables inviolate, for the obstruction of her lines of communication with her eastern colonies would, seriously cripple her movwnonts. It believed that at all events Russia will respect tlio Western Union and Mackay-Bennett lines of cable on account of thejr purely American ownership.
