RUMORS FROM FRANCE. The news from France this morning is extremely sensational.

Since the famous letter to Chesnelong eleven years ago, in which Count de Chambord refused concessions by which a monarchy under him was possible, there have been numerous Legitimist If the dispatches are to be credited, the white flag of the Bourbons has not been so boldly flaunted since the republic entered upon its definitive career in 1576. We are told of the arming of numerous legions under Charette and Baudry d'Assou, and of organized schemes to advance the interests of Chambord but while the present administration is vacillating and unreliable, and the news discouraging, friends of a republic in France may still entertain the hope that the masses will be aroused from their apathy, and make manifest their indisposition to submit to monarchial rule. They are no mor6 desirous for renewed civil strife than for foreign war, for which they have, of late, shown such disinclination. biunn Stbinmax, and those who voted with him, struck the propei key when they cut off the of tobacco heretofore allotted to dependents at the CouDty Hospital and poor farm. The county, in caring for the in Jiu'ent, should contribute to their necessities only.

If tobacco is needed by reason of long habit the physician in charge is the proper person to see to its supply. The order to give no more money to the indigent outside the hospital was a proper one also. If the Supervisors have the authority to vote $10, $20, or S.iO to this, that and the other person in charity, there is no limit to its exercise, and they can disburse the entire general fund in like manner. Our, telegraphic columns this morning teem with accounts of disasters The terrible accident on the Southern Pacific Railroad the burning of Susansville; the sinking of the Cimbria in the German ocean, with loes of life the collision between a steamer and hrigantine near New York, and finally the fearful explosion, with loss of life, at Point Isabel. Indeed, it never rains but it pours.

The proposition to put plumbing and drainage work, and plumbers in doing such work, under the control of local Boards of Health is wise We reoice that a method hag at last been devised by which the reckless plumber may be curbed. If the Boards now could but regulate the plumbers' bills, mankind would be content to endure all other ills. Tun proposition to have the United States Government expend (30,000 in enabling breeders of domestic animals to exhibit stock rt the Hamburg International Exposition in July next, meets with favor generally. The sum is certainly sufficiently limited, but still it is believed we will be very fairly represented. Thr Colusa Am, entirely Democratic, says "The Legislature has plenty of good square work before it to exhaust the entire Bixty days, without running off after all sorts of jobs which can do do good except to allow a few men to make a recorl for future use." The Anaheim Gaztttt says that the Del Valle Congressional districting plan gives nothing to the Republicans which can conveniently be taken rom them." Did the Gazette expect anything else It is proposed to Los Angeles to cut Suu Barbara county in twain.

There does not appear to be any urgent necessity for such division, aaU the plans meet with opposition. IRRIGATION. The irrigation question has not been taken up by the Legislature with that vigor which should have characterized it. It is true, bills have been introduced and referred, hut it is plainly evident that the members are timid as to this, the most important question to come before them. Beyond the bills pending, and which it ia not certain constitute the best basis for action, no practical steps have been taken nor efforts made to bring to the aid of the Legislature the best information and the highest ability attainable on the subject.

The problem must be treated in a broad and comprehensive manner it opens a held for the exercise of statesmanship of the best order. When its importance is considered, it is almoat too muoh to hope for that it will have the consideration due it. The Legislature must grapple with the central and one vital question, whether or not the laws as to riparian ownership are applicable to our situation, and whether or not new and experimental methods shall be inaugurated here. If the Legislature accomplishes nothing more than the setting on foot of a system that shall contain the germs of success, it will deserve commendation. But it may do more, and by wiee enactment bring to the test at once the ability of the State to do any practical thing in the matter.

The bill prepared by the ex-Surveyor General presents the issues fairly, but its introduction was met with manifestations that indicate its fate, while Mr. Wharton's bills have not had the friendly reception expected. The State Engineer has forcibly called attention to the subject. While he refrains from suggesting plans, he says: "The establishment of a system of control and direction, which will relieve the Courts of many vexatious suits, and which will inspire confidence in and add stability to irrigation property, need not constitute an attack on existing claims of right, and need not bear heavily upon or embarrass the users of public waters. The effect, under a wise Bystem, would be felt gradually all parties concerned would as gradually become used to it, and recognize in State control the only means of protecting the interests of each, as it has proven in every old irrigation country in the world." Until a disposition is manifest to vigorously enter upon legislative work on this subject, it is useless for the present to discuss plans.

One-fifth of the session has passed, and the general and committee files are already so overcharged with bills, one-half of which are useless, that it is doubtful if the time can be now commanded in which to properly deliberate upon this subject, for the majority appears to be too much engrosaed in advancing partisan ende, to early and earnestly take hold upon the leading measure committed to its care. THE HAWAIIAN QUESTION. Where the products of two countries are essentially different in character, there can be no question as to the beet-tits to both to How from a mutual free exchange. In the attempt to defeat the operation of a broad commercial principle, certain journals lend themselves to misrepresentation of the true relations existing between 1 the United States and the Hawaiian Islands under the reciprocity treaty. Uader it wo send in free 123 distinct kinds of our products, and the islands send to U3 twenty-three of theirs.

The treaty bind? the island kingdom to make no treaty by which any other nation pri'vilegoo regardiof? like products. But us the treaty imposes no such restriction. The treaty provisions have been adhered to, and still we are told that there is somewhere, and somehow, fraud and wrong in it. There is no reason in charging the market price of sugar, whatever it may be in this country, to the treaty. If, as we demonstrated the other day, we lose the revenue we might otherwise collect, it is more than compensated for by the benefits and profits the treaty brings.

In 1575 General Schofield reported that the importance of the treaty, in a military and naval point of view, was alone sufficient to warrant its ratification. By it we secured what the naval officera term "the key of the Pacific Pearl river harbor. Official records are overflowing with the opinions of eminent authorities on this point. The late President was a warm supporter of the treaty, because he saw in it the solution of the question, How shall we maintain our maritime importance on the Pacific If all that has been falsely represented by the enemies of the compact is admitted to be true, for a moment, it still remains a fact that the advantages accruing to our flag, outside of all commercial gains, demand that there shall be no disruption of the relations now existing between the two countries under the reciprooitj treaty DOUBTFUL POLICY. The effort is being made to amend a Code section in such a manner as to avoid questions of misjoinder, similar to that raised in the Keyes case.

As we have constantly held, the equities are with the valley in its straggle to prevent the destruction of valley lands by the flow of mining debris. Of this there is no longer any question the right to protection cannot bs gainsaid, nor can there exist any right to destroy these lands. This, if tt needed any demonstration at all, has been settled by a judicial determination of the principles involved in a tribunal of the first instance, and the friends of the valley confident of its ratification by the appellate Court. Since, then, the farmers have such a vantage ground, it is very questionable whether it is the part of wisdom to press other legislation, instead of resting upon the law under which they have found a remedy against debris. It is a doubtful policy that suggests legislation which may weaken the position now held by the enactment of laws that must submit to judicial test, and will be liable to be set aside as unconstitutional.

THE RAILWAY ACCIDENT. The deplorable accident on the Southern Pacific Railroad on Saturday, entailing so great a loss of life, is most serious disaster that has occurred on any railway line of the State. There can be no contemplation of it without the profoundest sorrow. The real cause of the accident is not yet determined. Probably all tbe facts will be fully developed at the inquest about to be held.

The shock to the community occasioned by the receipt of the news was the greater ii-om the fact that serious accidents on railways on the Pacific coast have been so rare indeed, accidents on the railroads of the State have been at the minimum, and in no section of the land are there fewer disasters by rail in proportion to the miles traversed by steam can. The casualty of Saturday has cast a shadow of gloom over many a family circle, and has made vividly prominent the depth and sincerity of the sympathy our people feel for each other in the hour of trial.

San Fiaxcisco, January Shortly after 4 P.

m. the city was shaken by a heavy explosion. Four others followed at interval of a few Eeconds, and a dense column of smoke rising across the bay was sufficient evidence of another added to the numerous powder works disasters that have occurred in that vicinity. A brief telegram says the giant powder establishment near West Berkeley station, four miles north of Oakland, was blown up, and a number of persons killed. DISPATCH.I PARTICULARS OF THE AFFAIR.

Berkeley, January 21st. The mixing house and six picking houses of the giant powder works at Point Clement, near West Berkeley, exploded at 4p. m. The shocks of the seven explosions were felt in this town. One white man, the foreman, named Conk, and between forty and fifty Chinese, are known to have been blown to atoms.

Nearly the entire place was destroyed by fire, which began immediately after the explosion. The Superintendent was thrown a long distance, but was not injured. Physicians went down from Berkeley and West Berkeley. The fire is still raging. The large magazine, containing over 200 tons of powder, is still safe.

About eight tons exploded. The loss cannot ba estimated. The dwelling-houses east of the hill are safe, but all the glass was shattered. Rich, Buehholz and JacksoD, workmen, are known to be safe. FELT AT NAPA.

Xapa, January 21st. Three large explosions were heard here this afternoon about half-past 4 o'clock, which rattled the windows in the houees and cauted many people to think that a powder explosion had taken place somewhere. DISPATCH.I Berkeley, January It is now known that the number of Chinese killed is not so great as first reported, as not over thirty are missing. Many press representatives were soon en the spor, although the tira is still raging, and more explosions are expected momentarily. The ecene in the vicinity is terrible.

Bodies can be seen lying near the line of the fire, but men dare not rescue them for fear of Iheir own The Assistant Superintendent is missing, and supposed to be killed: The Superintendent was not at the works at the live. A workman named Oscar Foryuffsky was pullet', from the ruins after the explosion. He is ceriously hurt. His back and legs are injured, and he is also hurt internally. Seven Chinese have been pulled from the debris, all badly hurt.

All the houees in a radius of half a mile are completely shattered. The doors and windows of the dwelling-houses of the employes on the opposite the east side of the hill were blown in, and most of the occupants thrown to the floor. Sheds and barns were laid flat. The buildings of the Judson on the Bide of the hill, where a kind of blastiDg powder was manufactured, were thrown over, and will probably have to be rebuilt. The cause of the explosion in the mixing-house is yet unknown.

The other explosions followed in the space of two minutes. All the buildings blown up were on the bay side of the hili, bnt the tires crept rapidly around, and now ('J P. the large magazine in dacger. No attempt has been made to check the fire, owing to the danger. Many workmen miraculously.

To-day is the first Sunday in many months that tho were running full blast, and of seventy tons were loaded on echoonera at the wharf. A driver, with a team and load of powder on the wharf, jumped, when the first explosion was heard, into the water and escaped, when the wagon-load exploded. The wharf has taken fire, and is burning rapidly. Hospitals were improvised in the undamaged houses, and the wounded cared for. Physicians have come out from Oakland and other towns, Thi-i is known to be the most disastrous that ever occurred at the works.

Should the magazir.e explode, all the houses in Berkeley would ba damaged. A final effort will be made soon to subdue the names and avoid this danger. Later. The etforts to prevent the flames reaching the main magazine, containing an immense quantity of powder, have been happily successful. The consequences would have been most frightful had the large magazine exploded, as one of the Superintendents stated that there is enough powder stored there to have destroyed every living thing on the peninsula.

The cause of the first explosion remains a mystery. This evening twelve bodies had been counted lying in the debris, and the Coroner's investigation to-morrow will probably disclose more than double that number. A force cf men is engaged to-nieht in extinguishing the fire and recovering the bodies. ME VERY LATEST. San Francisco, January The very latest reports from the explosion place the losa of life between 10 and 50, The fire is still burning fiercely at the different packing and mixing houses.

The nearest point of the fire to the main magazine is about 30 yards. Workmen dare not venture near the magazine, for fear of the explosion. The wind is blowing from the east, but Bhould it change to the it is said the fire would certainly reach tho magazine. The Tehachapl Horror. Los' Angeles, January 21st.

No news has yet been received of the result of the Coroner's inquest iato the cause of the railroad disaster. Kumars are afloat of finding more bodies, but lharo is nothing definite. The remains supposed to be those of Mrs. Downey, on examination to-day, prove to be those of some other person. The bodies of Charles R.

PearsoD, express messenger, Mies M. E. Squires arid Lawrence, the Bleeping car porter, have been sent to Oakland, and that of C. H. Larabee to San Francisco by express.

Jamss K. Dwyer, of Dwyer, Skaife Robertson, San Francisco, supposed to have been in the wrecked traio, arrived here Friday safe and well. Porter exhibited a great deal of cool heroism at the burning cars. After drawing his wife and maid through a window of the sleeper, he rescued ex-Governor Downey from between the broken thus saving his life. EXrEKIKSCK OF A PASSENGEB, Sax Fbahcisco, January The Call to-morrow will publish an interview with Howard Tilton, of Yale, B.

Freight Agent of the Canadian Pacific Railroad Company, who was on board the Southern Pacific train at the time of the disaster. He says "I was asleep in a lower berth when the sccident occurred was awakened ty the terrible speed and the rocking of the car threw up the curtain and looked out of the window the train was dashing down the grade with frightful rapidity at the rate probably cf seventy miles an hour, and I realized that a disaster was imminent. I laid down again to wait tbe inevitable with the feeling a man must experience when be is standing on the scaffold in expectation of the fall of the trap, It Beemed only an instant when the crash came, and I wss hurled from my berth. I was sleeping on the left side of the car, which fell upon the right side, and I was covered to my waist with mattresses, woodwork and debris, but found no difficulty in freeing myself. Smoke pacsed throng the car, giving timely token of impending peril.

To the right and in my rear I saw Mr. and Mrs. Porter Ashe, perfectly free, but Miss Peteraen, the maid, was buried under about six feet of debris, on top of which was the water- cooler and washbasin. Mrs. Ashe was endeavoring to extricate her, and I assisted in clearing away the rubbish.

We soon succeeded in pulling her out. They were the only persons in sight. I pushed up the windows on what was then the top of the car, and found them to work perfectly, not a pane being crushed. I crawled through, drew Miss Petersen out, and Mrs. Ashe followed.

I asked Porter Athe to throw out some blankets, which he did, and then crawled through himself. Mr. Ashe, Misa Petersen and myself had only our underclothing on, but Mrs. Ashe wore a sealskin sack. The cold was intense, and we shivered, even though wrapped in blankets.

Deep stillness followed the crash, and we heard only one cream while we were in the car. As I emerged from the car I saw Mr. Hatch and his mother climbing out of another window. I ran along and fouad we could reach the grouod by means of the platform. I lowered Miss Peterser, Mr.

and Mrs. Ache leaping to the ground. The upper portion of the car was in flames by this time. Passing alone by the sleeper I saw the legs of a man protruding from the car. He was piteously calling for help, but cool and thoroughly conscious of hir position.

I succeeded in partially extricating him, when a train man came to my assistance, and we saved him from a horrible deatb. He proved to be John F. Cassell, of San Francisco, and was the last person taken from the ruins alive. All human efforts were of do farther avail, as the sleeper was in a rir-et of ti wnes. We left the spot and limped down to the bottom of the raTine, some tifty feet below, where had now collected ex-Governor Mr.

Mr. ar.d Mra. Ashe, Peteiserj. and Captain Waterhouse and daughter. A few persons were scattered about us, shivering in the blast.

Among the rocks on the steep side of the slope lay Wright, the porter, wounded to death and begging bitterly for help. At the time there were some big strong men, fully dressed, parading up and down, who were appealed to for aid by the injured, but who took no notica whatever of tbe cries oi suffering. I attempted to assist Wright, who was dyice, but being worn out could do but little. A brakeman named McKenzie did all in hia power for A locomotive from Tehacbapi Boon came to cur relief, and conveyed ua to the station, where we arrivad two hours after tbe accident occurred. Here we were kindly care i for ty the railroad officials and others.

Medical aid was rendered, and every thing done to relieve our necessities. Tbe locomotive then returned to tbe scene and broueht to the station the injured Miss Squires, who was killed, occupied a berth opposite mine. In front of the berth of Miss Squires Mr. Oliver, County Cierk of Lake county, was sleeping. He was burned to death.

His wife not with bim. The next berth contained Mr. and Mrs. Cassell. He escaped, but Bhe was killed.

A physician occupied the next bertb, whose name is unknown. He was burned to death, and his remains could not be identified. All on my Fide of the car, with the exception of Mrs. ex- Governor Downey, were saved. Porter Ashe, wife and maid, occupied the drawing-room car.

In the dining-sleeping car were a lady and her daughter, whom I believe to be Mrs. acd Miss Brown. Captain Waterhonse, wife and two children were also in this car. Only a few personi were in the dining car, who escaped, but they were more or less injured. One of the tramps who was killed jumped from the train while it was moving at lightning speed, and the other was crushed horribly in the wreck.

J. Searle and Captain T. H. Thatcher, who were reported among the injured, escaped unhurt. Both were on the coach which kept the track.

Ido not know tha cause of the accident, and can give no reason for it. The engineer and fireman of the hill locomotive deserve great credit for their untiring efforts in the wounded. fcusauvillc Again Burned. Reno January 2lst. A rtport comes from the north to-night that Susanville, has been again destroyed by.

The 6re in Susanvilie, as near as can be ascertained, commenced in Bareman's saloon, on Main street, and consumed an adjoining jewelry store, Maltby's harness shop and clothing store. The fire then crossed the street and burned a butcher shop, a ealcon, and at la9t accounts a new unfinished hotel was in flimep. This is all the information that can be obtained, and this needs confirmation.

Murder In Placer County. Newcastle, January 21st. A mont atrocious murder was committed near this place early this morning, on the ranch of J. C. Boggs.

One Angelo, an Italian boy of about 17 yean, shot and killed an Italian, a hired man working fir Mr. Boggs. The uame of the deceased is unknown.

DISPATCII.I Auburn, January From what can be learned regarding the murder near Newcastle this morning, it appears that Pranza and Vincenzo Pippa, Italians, left the ranch of J. O. Bogef, where both were employed (about two miles below Newcastle), about A. going further down the road to Angelo Lera's after a couple of pigs.

About a mile below the ranch, while passing a small opening in the linifli. Pippa, who was evidently walking ahead, was shot by Pranza in tbe Head, back of and over the ear, with a shotgun loaded with 1 1 phot. It is thought both barrels were discharged, and death was probably instantaneous. The ground surrounding the body shows no evidence of a struggle of any kind, and the dead man bad his left band in his coat pocket when found also one pocket of his pants was turned out. Apparently the body fell on its face, afterwards being turned over.

Acgelo testifies to hearing a gunahot 8:30. Pippa hso been in the country about four yeats, is aged 32, and has no family. Ho is first to the father of Pranza, ii a boy aged 19, and has been in the country about'a year. Pranza and his father did not get along very well, and the boy was dissatisfied ami wanted to get out of the county. Pippa had exhibited money about the neighborhood to tho amount of and the knew he had the money on his person.

The temptation to get pceeession of it overcame him, and he committed the deed, after which he took a circuitous route of about fifteen milec, bringing up at the Court-home here. Walking into the Treasurer's office he gave Treasurer Mann $-452 and surrendered himself to the Sheriff. He can talk no English, and makes no statement. He hid or threw the gun away, and it h.23 uot been found yet. Died of Her St.

LARGE FLOURING MILL TO BE BUILT. A correspondent at Vallejo gives the following item in reference to a projected enterprise near that place A large Hour mill will be built by Starr Co. during the coming summer, on the southern shore of the of Carquinez, near South Vallejo Junction. It will be built upon a hard rock foundation above water at low tide, nil concrete arches, through which the tides can flow and ebb. The main building is to be of hard brick, 150x180 feet, subdivided into three parts, each 150xG0, the central 150x00, and to be six stories in hight.

This is to be filled with the best machinery the present day can supply, and driven by a powerful engine, plans of which are now being drawn. The other two brick buildings, 150x00, one on each side of the mill, are to be used at present as warehouses, but will be so constructed that either or both can easily be adapted for use as mill buildings when such a step shall become necessary. The capacity of this first mill is to be 2,000 barrels of llour per day, with a possible future enlargement to 0,000 barrels per day, when all the three buildings are completed as mills. The mill will have wharfage for schooners and barges on the east and west sides, while on the north will be the deep water berth for ocean-going ships to load Ilour for Europe. Adjoining the mill to the west will be a large grain warehouse and deep-water wharf 000x200 feet, where grain ships will load for Europe.

After a water-way of 150 feet, another similar wharf and warohouse 600x150 feet is to be built. But the most interesting feature is to be a regular wheat elevator with best Eastern improvements, to be constructed between the new mill and the wharf warehouse on the west, where wheat will be graded not only as Nos. 1, 2 and 3, for shipping in bulk, but also into the various qualities required for all milling purposes. There is also room for a fine brick warehouse on "terra firnia" inshore of feet, but this may not be built at once. The contract for building the wharves has, however, already been let, as well as all material purchased.

The mill will cost about Work is to be commenced early in February, and rapidly proceeded with. Starr it Co. have quietly been adding to their present mills at Vallejo. until now their capacity is 1,500 barrels per day, which is to be increased to 2,200 barrels per day by the Ist of May next. The enlarged mill at Vallejo, and the new one on the Straits of Carquinez, will, when completed, turn out over 100,000 tons or 1,000,000 barrels of flour yearly, which the iirm state they will have no difficulty in disposing of in Europe aud elsewhere.

Some of the leading capitalists are, it is understood, associated with Starr Co. in this extension of their business. It has often been queried why bo much of our annual exports should go as wheat and so little as tlour. This enterprise, therefore, seems a step in the right direction, and, if well managed, should certainly be fairly profitable. PASSENGER LISTS.

Kindle Melville Under Fire. New Yobk, January People here who know anything about Emelie Melville, the California attresp, who, according to all accounts, eloped from her wealthy husband to share the fortunes of a young man ten years her junior, wonder what hag become of Emelie'd austere mother, who used to keep a remarkably watchful eye on her more or less fair daughter, particularly when opportunities for flirtation seemed promising. As long as sixteen years ago Emelie Melville and her mamma used to make a circuit of probably every town of 10,000 inhabitants in the Northwest, playing such pieces as Fanchon and "Daughter of the Regiment, 1 to the great delight of provincial tastes.

She left the stage noire ten years ago, when she married a Californian, but subsequently returned to it, and for several years has been playing all through the countiy. Two or three months ago she started on a professional tour to Australia, and a young man named Caselli embarked on the same in disguise. It is now said that she intends to remain permanently in Australia, where Caselli is living on her and the reports that have come back from that country have enabled Derby, the deserted husband, to apply successfully for a divorce.

On the other hand, it is stated that Freddie has a lot of policemen stationed in the hotel to protect him, behind whose brass and blue he is very boastful, and that he never goes out except in a close carriage.

The Situation in France. Marseilles, January 21st. The wildest rumors are current in regard to the legitimist conspiracy, and it is stated that wLita banners with fleurs-de-lis are being made in Lyons, in expectation of the accession Count de Chambord to the French throne. London, January 21st. A Paris dispatch to the Daily Nans says It is perfectly true that Baron de Uharette, aided by Ilaudry d'Asson, member the Chamber of Deputies for La Vendee, and others, has organized from Finisterre to Tours thirty-two legions of 1,000 men each, and begun to arm them.

Six hundred horses have been purchased as a nucleus for the insurgent cavalry, stationed at different chateaux. The recruits wear a small cross as a rallying signal. It is stated that the conspirators have 15,000,000 francs in London. This is no canard, but the result of Government irquiry. The police report it certain that Bran de Charette has in Paris 1.500 Pontifical fully armed.

Prince Victor has been granted a short leave of absence to visit Piince Jerome. He has arrived in Paris. An Informer Extraordinary Story. Dublin, January The twenty-one persons recently arrested here were before the Police Court yesterday, charged with conspiracy to murder police officials. The courtroom was crowded.

Great discrimination was exercised in the admission of persons. A large crowd remained outside. During progress of the hearing of the charges against the prisoners startling revelations were made. An informer swore that several persons, including many members of the municipality, were present at a Fenian meeting, where the informer was asked to join an inner circle formed for the assassination of the officers. The name of the informer is Farrel.

He acknowledged having taken part in a plot to assassinate jurors. He swore that the prisoner, named Hanlon, informed him that he had taken part in the attempt to murder Field; that Brady stabbed Field, and that Kelly also participated in the affair. Farrel also testified that three -pence was collected weekly from the Fenians to purchase arms that the city had been marked into districts and military inspections were held occasionally, at which most of the accused were present. At one of these meetings, one John Dtvoy, who said he came from America, pretided. The organization, he said, has existed for some years.

Farrel said that Daniel Curley gave him a revolver, and told him to stop Fonter's carriage opposite Ellis quay, when Jim Kelly and Joe Brady would do the remainder. The plot failed through mistake. Farrel identified Kelly, Brady, Curley, Maloney, Dwyer and Boyle, all of whom were in the prisoners' dock, as i bavin? been present on Ellis quay when the abortive attempt was made to waylay Forster. Curley was very much vexed at the failure. I Farrel said that Brady, Kelly and Ranklin, the last of whom now in Limerick, followed Fonter's carriage in a cab on another occasion, and that MacMahoD, who was lately accidentally shot, was assisting by watching on foot.

All the prisoners were remanded for a week. DISPATCH.) LONDON, January An excitement almost amounting to consternation prevail i throughout the city. Known members of the Irish National paity unqualifiedly repudiate tho stigma sought to ba cast on their orgaciza'ion, protestioK that while and revolutionary p.ction ia the basu of their organizatioD, it never recognized, approved tolerated the rgenciea of crime. Tire Fenian Brotherhood deny that i'arrel was ever a member of that body, whiie many persona acquainted with antecedents of the informer say they wculd cot hr.ng a dog on his testimony, aud that Le wonld any day sell hiuaself and those nearest him for a glass of whUky. The Crown counsel, however, seem to be in earnest, and their confidence would lead to the snppcsition that they have strong evidence, circumstantial if not positive, to corroborate the infamous story.

Park London, January There is no doubt whatever that information now in possession of the Government which will enable it to arrest the persons who committed the murder of Lord Frederick Cavendish and Under Secretary Burke. The informer is named Delaney, now under sentence of ten years imprisonment fcr another Tbe officials, both in Dublin and London, are confident that all the guilty parties still in thU country will be locked in jail before a month is out. Uelaney, it is understood, in return for the information given the will receive a free pardon and a comfortable douceur of i'. NEW ADVERTISEMENTS. A Secular Meeting or Califor- nia Lodge, No.
