[London Daily New.] In Turkish Armenia and Kurdistan the people have received the Russians with open arms. Turkish villages even sending in their submission, and hand ing over the arms supplied to them by their government for guerilla purposes; and that this will be tie rule throughout Asia Minor there can De but little doubt. The people would gladly hail any toler ably civilized nation which would de liver them from their oppressors, against 1 whom the Mohammedans have for over two centuries repeatedly risen in arms, with, unfortunately, the sole result of 1 pyramids of their heads being erected to adorn the landscape, and of wells being I filled up to the surface with such bodies as the vultures, jackals, and pariahs were too gorged to consume. The great reason of the rapid diminution of the Mohammedan population in Asia Minor throughout the last three centuries as compared with the increasing ratio of the Christian races, is that the former often rose against the oppressions of the Turkish government, sometimes for a time successfully, but being in the end defeated, their villages were razed and they themselves executed or driven into Persia. Whole districts became depop ulated during these rebellions, which broke out at intervals from the end of the sixteenth centory to the commence ment of the present century; some of I them like that of Abaza in the seven- 1 taeeth century, lasted for years. o. vsomane swr. LeasUlsina, Delta Is Improving; its last sensation was a dog fight for 0.f2o i. Almost every farmer in Morehouse has raised some oats this year. S: Small-pox is reported prevailing to some extent In Caddo and Bossier par ishes. Washington, St. Landry parish, sn shipped 6,0(00 eggs to New Orleans by ithe Lessie Taylor. d. Three thousand logs are detained in a- Pearl river, waiting for high water to bring them down. Charbon is very destructive to stock t. at Big Cane, in St. Landry. The dis ease is on the increase. The petition to close Bayou Larnou s que, Plaquemine h parleb, has Leeon granted by the pollie jury. s Messer. Jacob and Geo. W. Ryan ex pect to have a rice mill in operation in Lake Charles in a very few weeks. As The St. Tammany Farmer chronicles the arrival in Covington, in that parish, s of a large drove of cattle, driven from o Pike county, Mississippi. * John Evans and Thomas Ryan, two of Irishmen, living In Donalsonville, had w an encounter In Wlese's saloon in that , town, and were both dangerously if not fatally wounded. a Mr. Glelley Badnot has been lodged in the parish jail of Rapides, charged with killing his brother-In-law, the Grant r parish jail not being considered secure h enough to hold him. Capt. Ed. Smith, tax collector of SPlaquemine parish, turned over $831 into a the parish treasury, the other day, the to largest amount paid over at one time o by any tax collector since the war. a At the recent municipal election In Ia New Iberia the contest was charac terled as between Whigs and Demo a crats, and the Whig ticket was success o fully receiving the united support of S former Liberals and R1epublicans. There was much political feeling en * gendered. On the night of the Nth Instant five white men went upon the farm of Dr, F. W. Hart, about six miles from Ver milionville and severely beat one of his laborers. Two of the parties were re n cognized, Paul A. Martin and Jean Chiasson, and were subsequently ar rested and required to appear at the Parish Court to answer the charge of assault and battery. Upon their pre liminary trial, it was discovered that burglary with dangerous weapons had also been committed, and they were ar rested on that charge also, and were re quired to furnish bond to appear for preliminary examination. Last Saturday night Sam Johnson, a laborer employed on Mr. Henry Ware's plantation, in Iberville parish, was as saulted by a mob, who beat him unmer elfully, and some member of the crowd finally fired at Johnson with a revolver and the ball entered the left breast of the victim, penetrating the upper lobe of the lung, wounding the blood vesselse producing internal hemorrhage and death. The parties engaged in this murderous assault were at once ar rested by Justice James Tate and placed I under guard until an examination of the I matter could be had. It has not been ascertained who fired the fatal shot but suspicion rests strongly upon one Terry Anderson. 1Ilnnlmnlppl. The citizens of Fayette have sub scribed for a fire engine. The Natchez Democrat wants a negro on the Democratic State ticket. The expenses of Hinds county, which were $57,436 12 in 1874, are only f21,512 33 now. The Handaboro )cDmocrat has a wild story of an alligator attacking a mule at that place, which wds only rescued by a brave man with a pitch fork. Newton county has decided to have a primary election to nominate candi dates for county officers, and also to see what man the county will support for Governor. A man answering to the description 4 of Dan Carson, the rafteman who killed Jame Beachan, another raftsman, last Wednesday afternoon, has been arrested in Yazoo City and is held for identifica tion. Three of the five negroes who made : their escape from Greenwood jail some time ago, were recaptured last Wednes- p day in the upper portion of Pike county, by iMr. MoWilburn, and returned to their old stamping ground. On Thursday of this week Bandle a Biles, blackemith, at Water Valley, was s compelled to shoot his fine cow she presenting every evidence of madness of hydrophobia. The poor creature presented a frightful spectacle in her antics of madness. The Corinth Democrat reports the largest Radical Convention in that city, on the 16th inst., that has been held in Alcorn county for years. The main ob ject of the assemblage was to behead Major J. L. Wofford, chairman of the County Executive Committee, and to protest against his retention by the Administration as Postmaster. Wof ford is charged by them with having turned over the postoffice to Demo cratic control. The convention unani mously recommended W. H. Willis for d Postmaster. 8 On Saturday last, about noon near a Longtown in Panola county, Jack and Bob Brown, brothers-in-law to Lee Horn, accompanied by John Cummings a and Ed. Murdock. both Texans, went to Horn's house. Cummings called Horn out to talk, and a diffliculty occurred. Some of the parties when seen, were holding Horn while others shot him. It is said that Jack Brown did the shoot ing. After the shooting two men went south and two north. Bob Brown and Cummings were caught and are now in b jail. The others escaped in spite of b search and pursuit. p Texa,.. Dallas has defeated the special school tax. The dance houses of Fort Worth have been suppressed. The general tone of the Texas press is favor of an extra session of the Leg islature. Immense stock yards are to built ten or twelve miles west of Sherman, to which the M., K. and T. track is to be extended. A vigilance committee is strongly spoken of in and about Fort Griffin. Horse thieves are becoming so bold that forbearance has ceased to be a virtue. The destructive cotton worm has made its appearance in several counties in the central and southern part of the State. They have done but very little damage. A Mexican dressed in women's clothes fired at a man at a fandango in Mata moros on the 15th instant, and jumped Into tqe river and was drowned. On the foUttworr day his body was reoov ered at the ferry. The a~taok made upon the Sulphur Spring Garette office and its attaches Is one of the results of the whisky strug gle. The office was first pled, and then the attaches were attacked twice by armed men. They were received each time with hot shot and retreated. Four men, heavily armed and painted red and black, have been seen in the brush about one mile from Kaufman. The citizens of Kaufman are excited about it, as It is supposed the men are friends of Beardl, come to wreak their vengeance on Constable Hill, who led the arresting party that killed Beard. One day last week a little eight years old son of Mr. Dan Johnson, of Corpus Christi, took two of his father's mules to water. He carelessly tied the rope by which he led the mules, they being necked together, around his waist. The mules taking fright ran away, dragging him several hundred yards. The rope around his waist was In a slip knot, and was drawn so tight that he was nearly out in two. When released he was in sensible, and so remained until he died a few hours afterwards. ý.i-YI--- (O (OLD IN THI1 01rTH. at The Amount Produled by Menuitern Sunoll t Mines. [Philadelphia Timns. I In The report of the lHon. J. Ross Snow h den warmly recommends the re-estab rt lishment of the mint at Charlotte, N. C. e The present production of the south eastern gold belt he puts at $200,000 a D year, but the method of reduction Is crude, and usually does not produce more than 25 to 30 per cent of the gold te the ores contain. The tallings from the stack below the stamp mill at Kings Mountain, on an accurate survey, show n ed a gold value of $57 l9, and it is o' believed that Improved machinery will ' ncrease the yelhd. Kings Mountain or O Gaston Mine should produce not less if than $500,000. Mr. Snowden thinks if " the placer mines were properly worked - the North Carolina gold production should be what it was before the gold e deposits in California wore discovered r, between one and two million dollars. r- None of the South Carolina mines are is now In operation. In 1852 the entire 3- production of gold in the United States n had reached $220.000,000 and has since declined to $100,tMKi,000, and is declining. e Mr. Snowden believes that the re-estab if lishment of mint operationtat Uharlotte - would stimulate the production of gold ,t in the Southern belt. d -- -****-- FINANCIAL AND CVOMlMERtCIAL. r ON IRTA RY.
