New York State Items. 
The third annual State Convention of the Young 
Men’s Christian Associations, was held at Auburn 
last week. Richard B. Steele of that city was elected 
President. Reports of the success of Associations 
throughout the State were very encouraging. The 
daily’ sessions of the Convention were largely at¬ 
tended. 
Abijah Mann, jr,, a well known democrat of the 
New York school in the last generation, recently 
died at Auburn. He formerly resided in Herkimer 
County, and represented that district in the lcgisla 
ture and in Congress during the administration of 
General Jackson. 
The various Trades' Unions of Albany held a large 
mass meeting on the evening of the 8th inet. Res¬ 
olutions were passed recognizing the struggle of

and pledging the workingmen of Albany to sustain 
them until they triumph.

sentenced to State Prison for three years. 
The Convention of Episcopal ciergy in the North¬ 
ern section of the Diocese of New York, was held

many distinguished laymen were present. One of the 
objects of the meeting was to prepare for organiza¬ 
tion of the new Diocese which goes into operation 
this fall. 
The Troy walking tournament closed at 4 o’clock 
on the 9 th Inst. The prize was won by Haydock, an 
English pedestrian, who walked 100 miles in 32 
hours, 59 minutes and 55 seconds. Haydock’s walk 
is the greatest pedestrian feat on record. Other 
performances in this tournament were quite ex¬ 
traordinary. 
A colored man named Watson was run over by a 
freieht train on the Erie road in Elmira, on the 9th 
inst, and instantly killed. His body was literally 
torn in pieces. 
A new railroad depot is soon to be built at Bing¬

a position in the Health Commissioners Department

From Washington, 
Tee Attorney General and the Secretary of War 
are in correspondence regarding the late troubles in 
several counties of Kentucky. The disturbances 
there are likely to prove even more serious than at 
first apprehended, the outlaws being determined to 
resist all execution of the law at every hazard. 
Claims to the amount of about £80,000,000 for 
property taken and destroyed in the South during 
the war are now on file in the olllce of the Secre¬ 
tary of War. They are mostly from parties claim¬ 
ing to be Unionists, and the Secretary of War is 
constantly pressed for settlement. It is thought 
none of them will be allowed. 
There is no change in the status of the Internal 
Revenue imbroglio, and no prospect of an agree¬ 
ment between the Secretary and the Commissioner 
They have daily interviews without any practical 
result. 
The Tennessee Legislative Committee to request 
the President to send United States troops to that 
State have arrived in Washington. They represent 
affairs there as in a terrible condition; outrages are 
of frequent occurrence, and loyal men are in con¬ 
stant terror. The Ku-Klux Klan are fearfully 
malignant. Senator Wyatt was recently dragged 
from his bed and beaten by men in masks. 
As the time approaches for the session of Con¬ 
gress, pressure from the South In favor of it in¬ 
creases. Gov. Reed of Florida and other prominent 
Southerners are now here urging the matter. Gen. 
Banks is in favor of Congress meeting on the 21st 
and taking a recess until about Nov. 15, so as to 
make ft continuous session. It is not known 
whether Senator Morgan and Gen. Schenck, to 
whom the matter was committed, will agree upon a 
session. 
The status of President Johnson and Cabinet in 
regard to the political issue is now tolerably well 
settled. The President favots Seymour and Blair, 
and with him are Secretaries Welles, McCulloch, 
Browning and Randall. Gen. Schofield is out¬ 
spoken for Grant and Colfax, and Secretary Seward 
and Attorney General Evarts will probably come 
out for the same candidates. 
The official dispatches received at Washington 
from Gen. Sheridan regarding the recent attack by 
Indians on Fort Dodge, state that after the assault 
on the fort, in which the Iudians were repulsed, 
several bauds made their way into the fort with 
flags of truce and surrendered themselves to that 
officer. They stated that they had not taken any 
part in the recent outrages on the plains, and pro¬ 
fessed a desire to remain at peace. Gen Sheridan 
has asked for authority to transport them to some 
locality where they will not be disturbed by hostile 
tribes. 
Baron Lederer, who has lately been appointed 
Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary 
of His Majesty the Emperor of Austria to the 
United States, has been officially received by the 
President. _ 
From the West. 
On the night of the 31st nit., the dwelliDghouse 
of Robert Ravill, in the township of Pierson, Mont¬ 
calm county, Mich., was burned to the ground, with 
its contents and five children, aged from four to 
fourteen years. The fire occurred about midnight, 
and was occasioned by putting ashes In the wood- 
box. At the time of the fire Mr. Ravill was absent 
from home. The house was occupied by his wife, 
a man and his wife, and the seven children of Mr. 
K. The mother barely escaped with the infant, and 
the oldest boy jumped from the chamber window. 
The charred remains of the children were taken from 
the smoking embers the following morning and 
interred. The mother has lost her reason in conse¬ 
quence of the sad event. The remains were so burn¬ 
ed that they could not be recognized except by size. 
Hon. Schuyler Colfax, states that the indiaus are 
committing terrible ravages all around Denver, even 
as near as twenty miles from the city. 
The bridge on the Chicago, Rock Island, and 
Pacific Railroad, two miles from Iowa City, was 
I washed away on Monday night of last week. When 
the train going west reached that point at 8 o’clock 
| next morning the engine was precipitated to the 
bottom of the ravine, dragging after it three crowded 
cattle care and one wheat car, piling them on top of 
each other in a confused heap. The cars raised a 
heap so high that it prevented the passenger ears 
from following. The engineer was killed instantly 
and the fireman was so badly injured that he died 
shortly after. 
A portion of the track of the Beliefontaine and 
Indianapolis Railroad, about -50 feet long, and tbe 
ground around with it sank over sixteen feet, 
recently. All the trains have been obliged to stop, 
and the track has been raised by “ cribbing.” Fish 
from twelve to eighteen inches long appear where 
the water has risen out of the crack. It Is supposed 
that a subterranean lake exists beneath the track. 
The Hippocampus, a propeller plying between St. 
Joseph and Chicago, left St. Joseph on the 7th inst., 
with about thirty passengers and a fall crew, and 
foundered during the storm on Monday night. Fif¬ 
teen survivors were picked np by a sailing vessel, 
and taken to Saugatuek. They were in the water 
thirty-four hours. 
The National Lincoln Monument Association at 
Springfield Ill., has adopted the design of the 
American sculptor Larkin G. Mead, jr., for the pro¬ 
posed monument. 
In a quarrel which occurred on Friday between 
two men at work in a nail mill at Cincinnati, one 
of them snatched a red hot iron rod and ran it 
through the other’s body killing him instantly. 
other towns were laid in ruins, and so numerous 
were the dead in some localities that the survivors 
were compelled to flee to escape pestilence. The 
l T . S. war steamer Wateree and the U. S. storeshlp 
Fredonia which were at anchor in tbe harbor of 
Arica, were both destroyed by the tidal wave, the 
first being carried fully a half mile inland and left 
high and dry there, with only one man drowned, and 
tbe other being dashed in pieces on a reef, with the 
loss of all on board. The scene there, as elsewhere, 
is represented as sickening beyond all description. 
Mexican Tranquility. 
The latest advices from Mexico state that in 
the defeat of the insurgents at Puebla, Lucas and 
Borilla, who surrendered at discretion, were con¬ 
demned to death. The rebels at Istala and San 
Miguel had also been defeated. Negrete Prieto and 
Dominguez had escaped. The President had or¬ 
dered the arrest and trial of Gen. Canto for the 
assas&lnatian of Patori. Ortega had issued a mani¬ 
festo renouncing all claims to the Presidency. It 
was believed his life was threatened by Canto. The 
conspiratore against Juarez have been banished. 
Provisions were scarce in several of the States, and 
a famine was threatened. In the State of Guerraro 
beans were nine cents a pound, and corn two dol¬ 
lars a bushel. Gen. Almonte had protested against 
the confiscation of all his property, a part of it being 
owned by his wife and children in their own right. 
The matter was to he investigated. A man named 
Augel Miramon, suspected of being a brother to the 
Gen. Miramon, who was executed at Queretaro, had 
been arrested at Humatia, he haviDg arrived from 
Havana without a passport. The stages were regu¬ 
larly robbed on the principal high roads. The only 
department in which travelers were secure from 
robbers being that of Tepic, Gen. Losada having 
lately issued a decree which had effectually driven 
the banditti therefrom. 
From the South. 
A train of cars on the Montgomery and Mobile 
Railroad met with a terrible accident last week, six 
miles below Pollard, while crossing the Escambia 
river trestle. The trestle gave way and the three 
front cars fell through.. Mr. J. T. Warren, express 
messenger, was instantly’ killed, and several persons 
were badly injured. 
The Governor of Georgia has 6ent a message to 
the Legislature Inclosing the report of the commit¬ 
tee in the",ease of persons applying for the seats va¬ 
cated by the expelled negroes and giving the names 
of the persons receiving the. next highest vote. A 
lengthy protest accompanied the report against the 
action of the house in cxpelliug the negroes, re¬ 
viewing the constitutional question and stating that 
the constitution clearly gave the negroes the right 
to hold office. Motions made to table this as a di¬ 
rect insult t.o the House were not, carried, but it was 
voted to return the protest of His Excellency with a 
resolution declaring the members of each House 
proper judges of qualifications. 
Gen. Reynolds has declined to approve a resolu¬ 
tion passed by the Texas Constitutional Convention, 
appropriating £25,000 to defray its expenses. 
Nineteen Republicans have been assassinated in 
Colombia county, Arkansas, within ten days. One 
man wa6 shot with eleven bullets for shouting for 
Grant. It is said a reign of terror exists in the few 
counties where there are large rebel majorities, but 
all is quiet in counties where there arc Republican 
majorities. 
Terrible Earthquake ir* South America, 
By last advices from South America we are in¬ 
formed that one of the most fearful earthquakes on 
record occurred along the cost of Peru and Ecuador, 
on the 13th of August, whereby fifty thousand lives 
were lost, and property valued at three hundred 
millions of dollars destroyed. Tbe shocks lasted but 
five minutes, and extended from Bolivia to the 
southern part of Chili, on the coast, and one hun¬ 
dred miles inland. A tidal wave forty feet in height 
succeeded the first shock, which swept everything 
before it on the coast. At Valparaiso over six hun¬ 
dred people were drowned. Three-quarters of 
Iquique were destroyed. At Arequipa, a city of 
over 35,000 inhabitants, there was not a thing left 
standing except one church tower, and over four 
hundred lives were lost. No one dares to go where 
the city was, the survivors living in tents on the 
river banks. The entire population of the towns of 
Ibarra, San Faplo, lm&nta, and Ootocaehi perished, 
numbering nearly thirty thousand. All the churches, 
public buildings and private dwellings of Quito were 
laid in ruins, and three towns adjoining have almost 
entirely disappeared, with their inhabitants. Many

Thompson's lust Bank Note Reporter says“ Last week we 
stated that, some well informed parties pretend to know that 
the U. S. Snpremc Court has already decided that the Legal 
Tender Act Is unconstitutional, and that the decision will he 
promulgated some time, during the coming winter. As a 
general thing, this report is disbelieved. We must say, how¬ 
ever, that our Information is very much of a convincing 
c haracter.” The Reporter thinks it possible the effect may 
he good in the end.

The total amount subscribed for tbe late French loan was 
equal to $4,300,000.000 of greenbacks, or double the whole 
amount of our public debt. Germany could with ease take

has already absorbed a good share of our bonds, and Is very 
much the richer for tbe investment.

An Assassin on Trial. —The trial of Whalen, the 
assassin of McGee, was begun on the 8th inst., at 
Ottawa. He appeared pale and nervous, but an¬ 
swered boldly to his name. Mr. O’Reilly opened 
the case, stating that the Crown expected to prove 
murder planned by a baud of conspirators in Mon¬ 
treal, and the prisoner was the instrument chosen 
to carry the crime into effect. The defense made 
no opening speech. A large number of witnesses 
were examined for the Crown. The most impor¬ 
tant evidence given is that of Lacroix, who swore 
he saw Whalen shoot McGee.
