He was arraigned and tried by the civil authorities of Idaho, and sentenced to death, it being the first case where a white man bas been sentenced to suffer the extreme pen- alty of the law for the murder of a red skin. Tae Cost or PostaL Canvs.—The Morgan Envelope company, of Springfield, Mass., which obtained the contract for furnishing the postal cards, agreed to take the contract at 1.39% per thousand. The next lowest bid was of Ray & Co., of New York, which w %, or 20 cents "higher. Most of the oth bids Were over $2 per thousand. Should the Morgan company abandon the contract on ac- count of losing money, it is probable that Ray & Co., of New York, ‘the next lowest bidder, would receive the contract.

His trouble, an obstinate pa- ralysis, the result of former malarial fever, gontracted during the war in army hospitals, has been increased recently by depression frou. the death of his mother, to whom he was unusually attached. It is said he himself has no doubt of recovery, and the physicians, though uot $0 sangifine, count on his strong constitu- tion to yet bring him round. Whitman is now tit.s-four years old.

EXTENSION OF THE Free DeLtveRy.—By a recent order of the Postmaster General the cities and villages of Someryilie, Cambriage- port, East Cambridge, Chelsea, Brooklin, Har- rgon Square, and others, have been added to the terr.tory under the jurisdiction of the Bos- ton postmaster—therel y extending to those places the advantages of the system in the cit, itself.

A® 18 USUAL with the reporter of Tue STaw and of the Associated Press and American Press Association, application was made yester- day atthe Navy department, in two instance: for pews. The usual stereotyped reply w. received: ‘‘Nothing.” And yet, when the sim. ple little word was announced, news of an im- portant character has been received two days ago, to be dealt out in a manner unjustly dis- eriminating between enterprise and favor. A morning paper here, and it is sald a New York paper, by some potent means at their command were given information which justly should have been printed in the afternoon papers of yester- terday. The secret of this seeming enterprise 1s solved, if the common rumor proves true, that @ contidential clerk of the department is in the employ, indirectly, of the New York paper that bos ftsambassadors profusely distributed over the Jand. Secretary Robeson should investigate the ase, aud relieve the minds of many news- paper men asto bow an item of such public ‘mportance, was buried away, to come to light only on the application of favored parties. WE sre Inpenrep To Pror. Henry, of the Smithsonian Institution, tor a copy of his report forthe year 1s71. It contains, besides the report of the Secretary, articles on. meteo- rology, @ memoir of Sir Jolin Frederick William Herschel, a biography of Joseph Fourier, a review of Prof. Grabam's scientitic work, a paper on the relations of the physical sciences to seience in general, secular variations of the planetary orbits, methods of interpolation ap- plicable to the graduation of irregular series, such as tables of mortality, &c., the ancient history of North America, and other papers full of interest to the seiendst. It also contains instractions given Capt. Hall, the Arstic navigator, by Sccretary jon and Prof. Henty, together with papers for his use pre- pared by Professors J. E. Hilgerd,Joseph Henry, 8. F. Baird, F. B. Meek and Louis Agassiz. In his letter to the Secretary of the Navy, transmittting instructions, Prof. Henry thas speaks ot Dr. Bessels, whose name figured so unpleasantly in the recent investigation into the circumstances of the death of Capt. Hall; “Dr. Bessels was the scientific director of the German expedition to Spitzb and Neva Zembla in 1869, during which he made, jor the first time, a most interesting series of ouservations on the jepthe and currents of the adjacent seas. From his character, acquire- ments, and enthusiasm in the cause of science, he ts admirably well qualified for the arduous and laborious office for which he is a volunteer.” ss A Psnsistent Propurt.—Rev.

Capt. 0. C. Badger, commanding U. S. 8. Ticon- re Si Recent reliable information has reached this legation that civil war has broken out in the Argentine state of Entre Rios, and is likely soon to manifest itself iu Corrientes and Santa Fe, and that an armed revo't has arisen tn Par- aguay. As the theater of this commotion is along the borders of the Parana and Paraguay rivers, the undersigned gives it as his judgment that as soon as the U.S. steamer Wasp is in fit condition, it would be wet) that the ship should meke a trip as high as Asuncion. As a provis- jen againet an contingency of danger that might arise to the persons or property of citi- zeus of the United States, a naval vessel should show itself in the ports of the Parana and Par- The last of June or ist of July would jently early for the Wasp to leave if she should be in readiness no sooner. She would need to be absent trom the port not exceeding five or six weeks. * * * Joun L, STEVENS. The following is a report from Commander Mahan, of the Wasp, dated off Montevideo, dune 1th, addressed to Admiral Taylor, com- manding the naval force on the south Atlantic station: “ The revolution in Entre Rios still contianes, but without any incident of importance. The reported capture of Parana early in the month proves to have been false. The Argent minister, Senor Ganiza, is in thaf cit: published reports show no decisive fighting. iA said in the morning papers that Jordan has ordered all Entre Rions between fits teen and seventy to be enrolled. The estates of those who do not report aré to be confiscated. ‘The journais estimate eighteen thousand men to be in aris on one sie or the other. It is as- serted from Argentine sources that the Jordan- ites reeeive covert encouragement and arsist- ance from Brazil. The only thing that seems to affect foreigners is a published proclamation of Jordan that he will shoot any foreigners captured fighting against him. It appears also that some of his men boarded a Dutch barque and took from her two carronades. The Eng- lish squadron, consisting of the Pylades and Dart, are in port.

The official dispatches tcom Lieutenant Com- mander A. V. Reed, ofthe United States steamer Kansas, to the Navy department, regarding the Cuban blockade runner Virginius, set forth that the Kansas arrived at Aspinwall on the 2ist of June, and found anchored there the Virginius; that on the evening of the day following the Spanish gunboat Bazan arrived; that on the vay after her arrival a letter was received by Lieutenant Commander Reed trom Lieutenant Autran, commanding the Bazan, asking to be intormed “if the steamer Virginius is an Ameri- can vessel, and if, as such, she has all her papers according to law; because if she has there will be no doubt that in the United States the law of nations is interpreted, at least in the present case, in a very different way from what it is in Spain; and therefore I will ask the Spanish consul in Panama vo transmit my re- marks to the Spanish minister in Washington im order that this high officer may present to the American goverament the proper observa- tions aud claims, so that the Virginius mn 4 ease to fly the flag of a nation at peace wit Spain; and that in case of covering that vessel with her flag will compe! Spain to take extreme measures, Or to ask the arbitration of some n power in the fillibustering question I am debating; because the beautiful example of arbit.ation we have contemplated between the Union and England urges us to follow it.” Upon receipt of this letter Lieut. Commander Reed addressed a note to Consul Thorrington, at Aspinwall, enclosing the above letter re- questing information as to whether the Vir- ginias was a United States vessel, and author- ized to sail under the American flag. Consul Thorrington replied that her papers were cor- rect, andghat she was authorized to sail under our colors. A letter was then written by Gom- mander Reed to Lieut, Autran informing him of that fact. PROTECTION ASKED FOR THE VIRGINIUS. tear pa apernd Lieut. Commander re- ceived an additional letter from Consul Thor- Fington, stating that the captain of the Vir. givius bad applied for protection from the war steamer Bazan, and pe rete him to see that “the Virginius is not subjected to any unlawfal exercise of force on the part of the Bazan,” and closing as follows: ‘‘I also respectfully recom- mend that, when the Virginins has completed her repairs, which will be in a few days, to see her clear of possible interraption from the Ba- zan. Her papers are in complete order. I feel compelled to give views as above. and to place the ai where it properly belongs, in the hands of that service whose paramount duty is the protection of American commerce.” The commanding officer of the Bazan was informed of the ion of Coneul Thorrington, and in addition was notified that the Virginius should have all the necessary protection. A MILD THREAT FROM THE SPANISH COM- MANDER. In reply the Spanish commander addressed a communication to Lieut. Commander Reed, to the effect that Spanish war vessels cannot per- mit the Virginius free p: whenever she may wish tu sail, or even to leave a neutral port where she has found protection and supp? t. itis not the fault of the Spanish government thatthe United States has not withdrawn alto gether its protection to the Virginius; for it is now many months that this vessel has been en- gaged in business so foreign to that of any other merchant vessel as to require her tobe con- stantly watched by the Spanish cruisers. If that protection is invoked tor to-day, only be- ppear in order, itis an arbi- ry © meantime he was con- vinced of his right to resolutely prevent her de- parture, and that he should do so inorder to discharge his duty until he received instruc~ tions to the contrary from the authorities to whom he was responsible.” CURT RESPONSE OF COMMANDER REED. To the threatening letter Commander Keod replied that ‘‘the running of a blockade and the landing of contraband of war does not insure the forfeiture of a vessel unless caught in the act, and the penalty never travels further than the end of the return voyage.” THR SYANISH COMMANDER DENOUNCES THE VIRGINIUS AS A PIRATE. Finding that threats would not intimidate Commander Reed, the Spanish commander wrote the commanding officer of the Kansas, in substance, as follows: ‘In the name of the Spanish government, I denounce the steamer Virgintas asa pirate, and I ask of you, taking into consideration the good relations existing between the two countries, that you wili direct the said vessel to be sent to the United States, to be there = before your own courts, to which Spain will send the proofs she has in her m, with the understanding that if these be not sufficient to condemn the Vir- ginius, then, asa — of the Spanish Satsages growing out other detention? jam: ou! r . itn ie Netter no reply ee It is naid avy departmen: q approves of Commander ‘teed. ‘The present status of the Virginius will be investigated by the Treasury department.

Dr. Lynch administered an ant dote. Glynn says that his regiment came from California to Bal- timore about six months ago, and they have since been at Fort McHenry in that city. He had been paying his addresses to a housemaid in the service of Major Kyliffe, with a view to matrimony, but coolness bad’ sprung up be- tween them, which was furtber increased by his declared intention te visit this city. A fortnight ago he visited the girl, and she gave him a custard and a bitter erp of coffee, saying: “You'll . well to-night,” and so he did. In a few days the poison began to work. In Apoth- ecaries’ hall yesterday Dr. Lynch said that Glynn's stomach and intestines had been so grievously ulcerated by the poison that his re- covery is doubtful. He has therefore put the case into the hands of the police, and Martin Glynn was taken to the hospital. Glynn hada considerable amount of money with him yes- terday, madein California, and this may ex- ey his treatment in Balumore.—N. F.

JOHN HENRY BONER, Summer is raging in the South, ‘The great sun with his brazen mouth Has breathed upon the land until Each valley-stream and mon atain rill, Like hottest tears, almost refuse To flow; there are no cocling dews To make the morning heurs bland— ‘The trees in drooping silence stand, As if by some great power curst And doomed to fade and die, as erst The barren tree of Holy Land Faded and died at God's command. The tender flowers, like pious hearts When tortured by scorn’s ireful darts, Fold their mate leaves, accept the doom, And die in their own sweet perfume; But, like the thing whose name it bea The tiger-lily little cares How fierce the scorching sunlight glows, And all the more serenely blows. And while the daintier blossoms wilt, Bowing their heads as if with guilt, ‘The sunflower, with calm, rustic grace, Stares the hot god right in the face. Among the trees abont the lawn The birdssing for awhile atdawn. ‘The locust then trills out a strain With shrill and resonant refrain, Singing his song till the sun is hid, When the impatient katydid Begins to pipe her fretiui tune * Unto the fair disdainful moon. Awful GOSS TRACKED FROM THE TIME OF HIS FICTI- US END TO THAT OF HIS REAL HORRISLE TH. We think ft may be safely said that the Goss mystery has been solved. The poor fugitive bas been tracked through all his devious wan derings from the time that he fled from his burning shop until he took hisseat in a carriage with Udderzook and drove away from the yil- lage of Jennerville to bis death. On the mght the fraud upon the insurance companies was consummated by the burning of a dead boly procured in New York in the little board shant at Waverly which he cailed his “laboratory his brother took him to the President street depot in the buggy hired from Dr. Thorne, and he started on bis travels northward. He passed through the state of New York and, crossing over into Canada, spent a couple months at Montreal and other towns in the Provinces. Then he went to his old home in Teu- nessee. But the pending case against the Mutual Insurance company, like a baleful loadstone, drew him back to the vicinity of Baltimore, and the other conspirators Were obliged to provide him a hiding place, where they could communicate with him and prevent bim from betraying the secret. Ud- derzook first obtained a home for him with an acquaintance in ©! hac ter county, and when he rn out bis welcome and his credit in that borhood, he went to Newark, New Jersey, winter and spring in ¥ Bond postponed the hearing of the motion made by the counsel for the Mutual Insurance company for a new trial till November, Udderzook became alarmed lest the plot should be discovered, and then poor Goss was decoyed back to Chester county, and when the dark plot had been fully matured, his handsome body was cut and hacked into’ the shape of the unsightly trunk which he had im- ported from New York seventeen months be- fore, to personate himself, He never dreamed that the resemblance would be so striking at last.—Baltimore Ameri RalLgoap ExtTorT10 ‘The Chicago Jour- nal suggests to those [llinots railway companies which, in order, as they suppose, to “make the new law odious,” are putting up their freight rates to unreasonable figures, that they are making a very great mistake against them- selves, as well asthe public, And it illustrates its position by the following: “We have another instance of this to-day in a dispatch fom Oswe- 0, Kendall county, forty-six miles west of Jhichgo, where, as a result of the new high railway tariff, a merchant has established a line of wagons to this city to haul luce to this markei, and, as the resalt of the experi- ment, finds that a of $10 per m trip as compared with the railway freight charges on the same Is.

The decision is correct. But Mr. Shepherd can obtain an indictment in a district court ot the United States, and cause Dana to be arrest ed and tried in such district where the Sun is circulated. For instance, the state of Vermont ts a dis- trict, and Dana’s Suu circulates in Vermont Mr. Dana could be indicted in Vermont and taken to Windsor for trial. Or Mr. Dana could be indicted in Buffalo. Would there be any greater bardship in taking him to Windsor than to Buffalo? The city of Buffalo is one hundred miles further from New York than Windsor. But Windsor is out of the state of New York. True enough, but what right has Dana to libel &@ man out of this state? And why should a mgn out of this state, or the citizens of Ver- it, or the District of Columbia, be compelled to come to New York to indict and punish Dava?

Feiontggt Ravaces oF CHOLERA tn THE West.— latest telegraphic advices from Indiana state that the cholera has made its ap- SS in the neighborhood of Princeton, Carnie and Mount Carmel, [ilinois, Only 1,500 persons remain in Mount Vernon, Indiana, and the board of health request persons not to visit the place for the present. ree deaths were reported esterday in Cincinnati. In Tracey- ville and Troy, Missouri, the scourge raged fearfully, the towns being almost depopulated either by'the disease or the people fleeing from ‘heir homes. Out of one family of nine persor= in the former place, all of whom were weil last Friday, only two remain to bury the dead. The disease also prevails in other neighboring towns. Business is almost suspended, and most of those who are able are fleeing from infecte:! places. The report of the sanitary superintendent of Chicago shows that during the past week out of 425 deaths 146 were from cholera morbus; all among recently arrived emigrants.

It is a long time since we have heard of a rob. bery so daring, and perpetrated by methods so atrocious, as that which despoiled the Adams’ Express car of £2,000, while passing over the Chicago, Kock Island and Pacitic railroad, on Monday night. At a point sixty-five miles west of Des Moines, @ party of highwaymen drew the spikes of one of the rails, intending thereby to wreck the cpprenshing train and plunder it. Fortunately, the enginecr saw the rail was out of place the engine struck it, and apply- the ‘brakes, the cars were stopped, and a and turning over on its side crashed the heroic engineer. Then the
