Ewe ‘EVENING STAR. Washington News and Gossip, Bap Accovyrs From THE SovTH.—Advices received from the South by the Republican Exeeutive Committee are not enconraging, Mayor Moore, editor of the San Antonia, Texas, Ezpress, (Republican,) who bas just arrrived here, says there is little hope fur the recon. struc.ion policy in that State. Lite and prop- erty are very insecure. In one week he chron- selrd fifteen assassinations and attempted assas- sinations in his paper. A member cf Governor Warmouth’s staff jastarrived from Louisiana, says if the Presi- demt does not respond to the call for troops— which the Governor will make in compliance with the resolution just passed by the Legisin- ture—the State will be practically in rebellion He says the western part of the State ig wholly der the control of the Ku Klux Klan, who ride about openly by daylight. Several of the former rebel cavalry regiments have been re- organized and called Seymour Knights, and the infantry companies Blair Guards. TRE APrornTMENT of the twenty-five super- visors provided for by the new tax bill has been postponed for the present. The intention of the law, which says they shall be appointed by the Secretary of the Treasury on the nomi- nation of the Commissioner of Revenue, was to give the latter control of his officers; but Secretary McCulloch, who has never agreed very well with Commissioner Rollms about the administration of bis bureau, will delay making appointments, even should nomina- thons be sent ip, until Mr. Johnson decides who sball be Commissioner. This is a problem of some difficulty, as Mr. Rollins holds that he cannot legally be removed to make place for an ad interim. REDUCTION OF THE NaVAL Forct.—In con- sequence of the act of Congress, authorizing a reductiop of the naval force of the United ‘States, Secretary Welles will soom order out of commission a number of vessels belonging to the navy, and already orders are being prepared withdrawing one or two vessels from each of theWoreign squadrons, whose crews will be discharged and the officers placed on shore duty. Itis not yet known what vessels will be ordered Bome. as they will be those which can best be dispensed with by the commanders of the various squadrons.

A New CaxprpaTs—It is said that at the Cabinet meeting on Inst, after a fall diseussion of the subject of the Commissioner- ship of Internal Revenue, it was positively decided that there should be no change in that office prior to the reassembling of Congress, but yesterday morning the mame of & new party, Beretofore entirely unconuected with the posi- on. was presented for the President's consid- eration: the understanding being that in case of his appointment, Mr. Rollins, the present Commissioner, would withdraw bis former qualified resignation and tender one unaceom- Fanied with any proviso. The gentleman named is & conservative Republican in poli- tes, but sustained the President throughout the Impeachment trial. There is no doubt that Mr. Rolls is anxious to be relieved, in case a suecessor can be selected acceptable to his party. Hox.

A Modern Biue Beard—A Horrible Record of Crime. — « A case has just been tried in the Criminal Ooure ot Poses, Prussia, which in its peculiar atrocity actually ontdoes the sanguinary legend of Blue Beard, yee The criminal was a bookbimder named Witt. man, and the crime of which he was accused and for which he has been cond=mned to tb. was the poisoning of four wives and children in the space of six years. This Wittman, while worki a jontney- man tn Trollin some ten years ago, made the Scquaintance of the governess of Lis employer, & M. Pirsch. who died suddenly not long at- terward, leaving his entire fortane wo his gov- erbess. Wittman thereupon settied at Wollin, and, in 1:@, married the heiress of iM. Pirsch. Two male cbildrer were bora of this union. In 1832 Mrs, Wittman died very suddenly, leaving all she possessed to her husband. Three months Afterwards the eldest boy was attacked by a mysterious disense and also died. June, 163, Wittman married his second wite, who bad likewise some money, and who @ied im the foliowing December, after having mace a will in her husband's favor eight days previously. In April, 1561, Wittman took a hird wife to his bosom. in the person of an heirese, richer than either of the previous vic- time; and (his woman died within fivi shortly after having made a will dividing her fortune between her husband and her mother. Two months after her death, Wittman entered for the fourth time mio matrimony—this time paeg | a wealthy widow with one child, who died three days after the marriage. Wittman then leit Wollin and settled at Po- gen. His fourth and last wife died in S-p- tember, 1866, having, like her predecessors, made a will in favor of her husbaud, about a rant Under pretext that she had ied of cholera, Wittman wanted to have her buried immediately, but the extraordinary mortality in this man’s family had at last at. tracted attention, and the police interfered with his rather premature arrangements. A physi- cian wes called ip, an examinatiou made, the presence of arsenic proved, and Herr Wittman ‘was lodged in jail just as the fuueral proces- sion started from his door. The bodies of his former wives and of the two children were afterwards exhumed, ania chemical analysis revealed traces of arsenic in FE of them. ‘wert too patent to cmmit of doubt or discussion, and after a brief rial, Wittman was, as above related, con. lemned to death.

He is Set Upon by a Women and ] Lest evening, about 8 o'clock, an iudividusl Well known to the police, and named Downer, made his appearance at the police station with A charge of assault with intent to kil! against a number of his neighbors. Downer was a sorry looking object—his looks civing the truth tc the assertion that he had suffered some very hard usage. His clethes were torn, and throughly soshed with water; his face was scratched, and de beld in nis band bundles of bis har and ‘whiskers, which he said had been puiled out. Notwithstanding Downer's character for peace was against him, and nis breatu emelled very stroug of whiskey, the authorities felt that no citizen, either foreign or to the manor born, should suffer such indignities to be hea hpon him, aud Lieutenant Kendrick listened t0 Downer’s story. He was siting in his house, down on the beach, quietly, doing nothing at all to break the peace, when who should come in but all the women that hyed about there. and before he said a word. they assaulted nim with clubs and sticks and guns and brick-bats, and beat him toa jelly. He knew all te women, and +he wanted them arrested and punished The story was a most improbable one, the officer saw at a glance, and one taut, no doubi, could be told by the other party in'a different manner. He was about sending a mam tothe Fpot to investigate the affair, when a well- known cluzen came in, and told the story ina manner which did not dd much to the credit © r. The gentieman had been on the beach for an evening promenade, when his attention was attracted by loud cries, which came from a knot of shanties some distance away.
