Commissioner Raum ts to have another consultation with him. It fs al- ready agreed that the Government can under- take to feed the prisoners, but the Comptrollor greatly doubts whether be can ro construe the law that the exponses for the arrest of criminals and for their transportation after arrest can be paid out of the Judiciary funds, ‘The language “for the transportation’ of,’? he concludes, was intended to apply only to convicted ‘prison- ors, If that construction shall prevall, 1t will of conrse not be possible for the United States Marshals to proceed to make arrests during tho pertod of six months, and to furulsh from thelr private funds the necessary costs of transporta- tlon and the main business of prisoners, . The Commissioner of Internal Revenue sccins to be of optnton that if the Inw is construed as Comp- troller Porter now appeare Iikely to construc it, United States Marshals cannot make arrests in revenue cases. For, while these officials might forego their own fees, it would not be within the floanclal ability of many of them to advance at the risk of loss the moucy necessary to carry on the criminal business of the United Statos Courts.

Tho result of the invostigation is thus described: ‘There were found to be about five acres covered with a thick scum of green and browu, and at frat 1% was supposed ft was composed of decay- ing verotable matter, but the odor of fucal mattor was clearly perceptible, and finally thoy came to the coucluston that both vegetable mat- ter und sewage were component parts of the dopostt.

A CAPITAL, SENSATION, Gpectal Diavatch to The Tribune p Waaminatoy, D. C., July 9.—The sult of Miss Morton azalaet the son of United States Senator -Morean for breach of promise has many sensa- tonut features. The defendant is a son of United States Senator Morgan, of Alabama, and {6 acting ao tho private secretary of his father, and the plaintiff is the daughter of Sen- stor Morgan's deceascd Jaw partner, and ber mother and herself are restdents of Dayton. She is now about 18 ycars of age, a handsome brunette, graceful and modest-looklng. It ay pears from her statements that after the death fof her father the two families, well acquainted bofore, were more intimate than ever, aud Mor- fan dbecamo very attentive to her, but the court- ehip was only of afew months’ duration, Sho charges that, under the promise of marriage, he seduced her, and afterwards attempted to keep up bis improper relations with her, but she refused. Sho also states that, having falled to keep bis contract tu marry. her, sho charzed him with, seduction, and ho is now under Indictment for that offense at Selma, Ala., and that before the time approached when the caso would bo called for trial sovcral at- tempts were, made by partles who shoe belloves were in tho interest of Morgan to kidnap ber to keep ner from appearing at tho- trial, and on one occasion an attempt was made on her lif, a man shooting at her. Fearing thati¢ the caso was called for trial in Alabama justice would not bedone her, afew months ago she came here to avenge her wrong, and went tu the of- flee of Morgan with the jutention of shooting him, Her intenttons z however, been coms municated to Morgan, ang when she appeared he was on his guard, ahd, scizing her, he yout the pistol from her hand) Since then she has concluded to seck redrdss through the clyil and has therefore filed the above suit.

It 1s believed on the contrary that somo of the banks ‘will for the present foreco the turee months’ accumulated interest which they cannot receive until the bonds sre surrendered, and will eubmit to atill further loss of interest by leaving the called ten-forties as accurity for circulation, The law tt appears will be fully satisiled so far ns the security cocs by Icaving the ten-forties.

One portion of the Jaw provides that this fund shalt consist of Inw- ful moncy. Another requires that redemption shall be made in legal-tenders. It {son the ba- sis of this Iatter provision. doubtless, that Bec retary Sherman ruies thut the silver dollar shall not be permitted teconetitute part of tnt fund, 'Yhe allyer men wil) doupttess uot _neutect to inquire whether Secretary Sherman would make the same distinction if the banks should propose to offer gold as a portion of the 5 per cont fund, and the law would stil require that the bunk notes should bo redeemed In lega'-tender. Jt willbe seen that the distinction between legal- tender and Jawful mones {6 still malntained a8 to the 5 per cont fund. NOTES AND NEWS. THE POSTOPPICE DEPARTMENT, Accsat Dispatch to The Triduna.

Bismarck said the Liberals, by their negative attitude, had destroyed his hope of effecting an understanding with them. He bad resolved to support Frankeustein’s motion, because he could vot follow ‘he course proposed by the other parties in the Reichstag, as that course wos but Httle removed from the Social Democ- racy, He denied that the constitutional right ot Parliament t@ vote supplies had been shaken.

TNE GREEK FRONTIER. 2 ‘ViesxA, Jane 25.—The Fremdenblatt pub- Kshes the text of the notes exchanged between Vienna ond Paris respecting the mediation of the Powers in the Greek question. The Cab-' inet of Vienna, the Austrian note says; quite ... agrees with that of Varlsin thinking that the moment has arrived for the Powers to take the inatter in hand, and congratulates the French Cabinet on its haviug ssaumed the foitlative in the question, The Austrian Cabinct, therefore, accepts with sntisfaction the proposal to {nform . reece that her demand fs complied with, and to invite simultaneously the two partics Muterestedl to name Pientpotentiaries with n view to resuming negotiations in Con- stuntinople. The representatives of the. Powers at the Porto would be instructed to: - mediate. The Austrian Cabinet is, however, of, opinion thut, instead of . prescribing to them to: meet at once ina conference, {t would be more: to the purpose to allow them freely to discuss} among themselves the steps to be taken, as au. difference of oplaion which might arleo woul . frustrate every action of-the conference; and’: ff once the collective action failed, the single : Powers could with far leas authority exert thetes influence. Separate action on the part of the: representatives inspired by the same intentions and pursuing the same object would, {a the opinion of the Austrian Cabinet, testify just as well a8 a conference to the concert uf the Pow- ers in the matter; while if this falted, it might still be possille to revert, and with greater ad- vantage, to the ides of a conference, In bis answer, M. Waddington explains tho motives directing him to propose a conference. As a combination based on historical precedent, aconference seemed best to correspond with that idea of common fntercat which led to the Berlin Congress. That the mediation may con- duct ta the destred end ualty of action is nec. essary. Otherwise, the P-enlpotenttaries of the two Powers interested would naturally employ to the advantage each of his own side every cit. ference, however etizht, in the declarations of the representatives of the different Powers... It is, in the opinion of the French Cabinet, of im- portance that there should not only be a thor- ough understanding aulCog those who mediate, but that ‘Turkey and Greece should sco this unanimity and be able to discover no differ. ence anon them. In proposing the conforence, the French Cabinet had no.intention of civing {ta solemn form, but only destred to civd the representatives of the Powers the means of more clearly manifesting the-unanimity of-their . oplnions. ‘fo, keep s. protocol recordlug the opinion of every one would.“be uscless—uay, dangerous, Only the resolutions unanimously taken should be communicated to the partics Interested. ‘The - diplomatic agents of the six Lowers inight meet at the house of one of them and deliberate in the simplest man- ner as to the adylee they ought to give. A wide margin should bo left in respect of the « form in which the communications of their de- cision should be made ta the Plenipotontlarles of Turkey and Greece, it being understood that these communications be made by common ac- cord, In one word, whatever the mode of pro- ceeding adopted, all valuablo result in tho opltiten of the French Cabinet ts likely to de- pend onthe unity of ylows, and the French Cabjnet considers it on essential conditicn of the inedlation that the representatives of the Vowers jn their relations with the Plent-~ potentlarles of Greece aud ‘Turkey act collect ively in the nate of thelr Governments, which, by the Berlin Congress, bave been invested with the imisafon of catablishing peaco in the East by the regulation of ibe question of the Greek frontier, The French note is dated the 10th of May, and at the cnd a desire is expressed that the negotiations begin in the first hatf of June.
