The case will be transferred from the Circuit Court of the county to the United States District Court, and will go to the United States Supreme Conrt. The works of the Mount Hope Iron Com- pany, situated in Somerset, on the Staunton river, Mase., were destroyed by fire Saturday morning. The buildings covered nearly three aqres of ground, and included a factory, ma- chine sbop, rolling mill, nail mill and office. The steam engines and machinery were of reat value. The total loss is about $150,000. ‘wo-thirds of the loss is covered by insurance. The establishment gave employment to 250 men. Advices from Honolulu state that the lep- rosy is making fearful havoc among the ni tives. The victims are numbered by hundreds.

Intelligence from Bo, Horrible Mur- der at Carthagena. A borrible affair occurred at Carthagena on the night of the Ist instant’ Four Americans, ex-officers of the steamer Kayo (R. R.Cuvler) about which there has been so much trouble, came from Santa Martha to Cartagena in the English steamer Tyne, as bearers of dispatches from President Gutierrez to the authorities of the latter flace, when, on going ashore, they ‘were attacked by an armed mob and two of the number brutally murdered. One other was seriously wounded, while the fourth escaped only by remaining very quietly in bi: room, througn the door of which the mob throst their bayonets. The names of the murdered men are George A. Borchart. of Savannah, V and John W. Murdo of Portsmouti Va. Wounded, Thomas L. Dornin, Nor- The one who scrped was Phillip eorgia. Dorni mith were rescued by A. S. Han bergh, Eeq., United States Consul, at mid- nigbt, and placed on board the Tyne, in which steamer they came to Aspinwall. Up to the 5th instant nothing had been done: no arrests made, and no one dared to speak of the affair. After the murder the Consul pro- ceeded to bury the dead bodies, which he found stripped of everything valuable. The dispatches and letters of protection they bore were delivered next day tothe President of the State, all bespattered with blood. It i much to be regretted that these gentiemen, in accepting service as off f the Columbian navy (7) had deprived themselves of the pr. tection of the United States flag; still, as they were Americans. all will sympathize with them and their friends. American residents of Carthagena, Santa Martha and Barranguiila call loudly for an protection against existing law! that region, consequent on the late unsettled and revolutionary state of the country, and it 1s greatly to be hoped our (#overnment will see the necessity of sending one.

Description of the Scesxe—Three lives sup- ‘posed to be lost, Naw Yorx, Sept. 20The Dean Richmond left Athens last night at 100’clock on Der trip to New York, having on 'd about one hundred and fifty passengers and a large quan- tity of freight. The bost bad jast passed Roundout when the lights of an approaching steamer were seen, and thebull of the steamer ©. Venderbiit, on her trip irom New York, loomed up through the migy moonlight The pilot of the Vanderbilt alsosaw the Deaa Rich- mond, and noticed thatsheseemed to be direct- ed towards his vessel. He.therefore, sounded the whistle for ber ptiot to teep off to whe right. But, instead of doing 80, itis stated,be drew to the left, and suddenly shot across the Van- derbilt’s course. At this time the boats were only about forty feet apart, andacolision was inevitable. The Vanderbilt came so with full headway, striking the immense stamer on the starboard side. crushing throng! the heavy timbers, demolishing the decksand piercing the hull below the water line The damage thus done in a moment was ternble in its com- Pleteness, and it was evident that the vessel Must eink, and that very speedly. The passengere, a great namper of them wo- men, were at this time sousdly sleeping in their berths, but the crash awskened most of them.and a scene of the wildestexcitement en- sued. Men, women and childres rushed, haif- clad, trom the state-rooms. aad wildly in- quired the cause of the disturbance. The Sgonized shrieks of the women and the curses of the men mingled ina turmoil and a struggle for life ensued among the affrighted beings who had been thns rudely shaken from their pleasant slumber to contenpiate the horrid Imminence of death. Therewas a rush for the doors to the forward decks, tnd a struggle be- tween the living masses, desperately forcing their way trom the cl moatphere of the ealoons to seek the air, and, if possible, safety within, The women, unatended by their frightened gallants, ran to ind tro, shrieking loudly, irresolutely flying Mther and thither, unconscious of all about than, and incapable otexercising their reason it the emergency. ‘The alarm: and consternation were heightened by the appearance of the pasengers from the cabins in ‘he old of the vess:!, who rushed to the upper decks with the starling intelligence that there was already, at tat time, a foot of water in the lower cabin, and that it was still rising. Many, however, had slept quietly in thei berths throughout all this commotion, and sé eral persons who had preservid their presence of mind in the midst of ali thedanger and ex- citement busied themselves vith breaking in the doors of the rooms andstirring up the sleepers to a realization of thér dreadful site- ation. Meanwhile the Vandebilt had turned about and run down slongstte of the Dean Richmond, which was sinkiig very rapidly. Such of tbe passengers as wer on the forward decks, or hanging on by the guards along the side of the boat, leaped overboard at once, teking the greatest risks of bdng crushed or drowned in their eagerness tosscape from the fated vessel. The cabins were still quite fall of agocized women and frighened men, and there seemed to be no doubt ttat the majority would be taken down with the boat, which was rapidly filling. The crew of the Vanderbilt anda number ofthe passengers of the Rimond worked desperately to save those sti!) remaining om board. The state room windows were broken in, and through these a majonty of the ladies were taken, the most of then being without any other clothing than their sight dresses. In this manner a large number ofthose on board ‘were taken off About this time, however. two passing schooners sent off their boas and took off quitea number, and rescued one man who was forced to swim from the injured steamer. By this time the Vanderbilt aad been pretty avily laden with the addition of the parties ‘ved irom the Richmond; and besides, it was learned that the Vanderbilt, tor, bad been bad- ley damaged, and was leaxingat a rate that Promised to shortly send her to the bottom ‘with the Richmond if any more passengers were taken aboard. The Uaptin of the Van- derbilt, therefore, reluctantly aauled off and headed np the river, lea ving a aumber of per- sons still om board the ill-fated boat. Tbe Drew coming along on her trip from Aibany, however, received the sayed passen- ge is sup that several hands on the Richmond were drowned, and several others are miscing; but notbing defluite has been learned as yet in regard to the loss of life, it any, by the accident. The Dean Richmond rupk in half an hour after she was strack, Her upper guards are out of water. Captain Curtis and the crew remained on board to the last. Two persons are reported lost; one is a passenger, name unknown, and the ether is one of the colored stewards. Up to the pres- ent writing, fortunately. only three lives are jt. ¥ 2.—Farther particulars ef the loss of the Dean Richmond leave but little doubt that the number of lives lost by the disaster is greater than at first reported. It is stated by 8 waiter that when the after cabin, below the main deck, was half full of water he saw only one man come out, although peo- ple were sleeping there. fireman named Ryan and a waiter named Mannus are reported missing. Wreckers are at work on the Dean Richmond, and she bas been hanled three quarters of a mile turther up the river.

A special dispatch from Omaha has the fol- lowing: The council at North Platte resulted in notbing conclusive, The Indians frankly stated the causes of the trouble. (seneral Sher- man, on bebaif of the Commissioners, deliv- ered an answer, which was plain, sharp, and explicit. He said if the Indians hold Smoky Hill the road must be built. They must not interfere with the Government. He supposed the road was agreed upon by the Cheyennes four years ago. The military posts and stations built two years ago were not then considered & cause for war. If the Indians are damaged, they will receive compensation. He supposed, also, they bad agreed on the Powder river Toad in the Laramie treaty last spring. While the Indians continue to wage war, the road will not be given up; but if the Indians’ right is found good, it will be giver. up, or compen- sated therefor. 1f they keep peace, powder and lead will be given them until a definite treaty was made. A raliroad train had been attacked—men were killed who had not guns, but were bringing goods, some of which were to feed Indians. A proposition was then submitted to the In- dians to accept homes on new reservations, and they were given until the first of Novem- ber to ani r at the conncil to be held at North Platte; at the same time they co hunton the Republican.
