Approved July 19, 1576.” Tae FLANS for @ new morning paper in this city, to be issued by ex-Representative John Lynch, of Maine, at the Globe office seem to be gathering shape.

It is alleged in this article that dur- ing the absence of Sir Edward in England, while the building was in course of erection, be gave the architect, Mr. Frazer, absolute control of the property, and authorized him to make such repairs and alterations as might be necessary; that the architect made alterations involving an additional expense of $10,000; that the British government and Sir Edward refuse to pay for these extras; that the builder has no remedy in the courts, and ‘has been swindled out of his money in a manner which if attempted by a private ete of Washington would make him de- sted We have the best authority for saying that Sir Edward did not leave thearchitect fi ab- solute control of the building, with authority to make alterations upon the original plan; and that the architect did not make such al- terations. Sir Edward himself, authorized extras to the amount of about $7,000, every penny of which was paid, together with the contract price for the building, and the British Board of Public Works Told the re- ceipts of Mr. Fleming for the same. We learn, further, that Mr, Fleming did his work to the complete satisfaction of Sir Ed- ward Thornton, aud as above stated was paid in full. If the builder for any cause failed to pay the sub-contractors, or any of them, that was not the fault of the British minister. Sir Pdward Thornton has, fn bis long rest- dence here, showed himself the soul of honor and probity, both in his official and private relations, and this wauton attack upon hi 2, While he is absent in England, ix most cen- Surable, and scems especially ill-timed in view of the houors and attentions now being heaped upon Gen.

The Russians Advancing all Along the Line. The Times’ Vienna special says: “Simul- taneously with the crossing into the Dob- rudscha, news comes of a general movement of the Russian troops between Slatina and down to the Danube, between Turna, Magu- reli and Simpitza, the 9th army corps, which forms the extreme right of the Russianarmy, leading the wey.” Fighting All Along the Line.

Boston, Jane %5.—A fire broke out in Marblehead at o'clock this morning, which swept away nearly the entire busi- hess portion of the town. The fire began in the stable of the apart | house, and is believed to have been incendiary. The fire spread with alarming rapidity, reaching the hotel, and from that spreading to other buildings. All the large shoe manufactories but three are now in ruins. These were mostly large wooden buildings illed with machinery and furnishing employment to hundreds" of men and women, who are thrown out of employment. The Eastern railroad depot, Six Or seven passenger cars and a number of freight cars were burned. Over forty dwelling houses were consumed, and the occupants saved but a yery small portion of their furniture, and the families only the clothes they put on to escape from the burning buildings. Twenty-two build- ings in all were consumed. 1t is impossible at this time to make any estimate of the loss or iusurance. The fire is now under control. Particalars of the Contlagration.

Confesstom of One of the Assassins. _ CINCINNATI, June 25.—A special dispatch to the Commercial from Logan, Ohio. dated | yesterday, says: One of the most atrocious crimes ever ted in Obio was the murder in this county, near the vill: of Gore, about seven miles trom Logan, ofsec. Weldon, his widowed sister, Mrs. Sasan Mc- Clurg,and Miss Nancy Hite, a daughter of Mrs. McClarg by @ former bus! |. The murderers are now in jail. One of them, Wm. Terrill, made a conf-ssion, which puts the crime on one Joseph King. King denies apy knowledge of the crime. The prevailing — is that Terrill did most of the horri- je work THE MURDERED MAN was a thrifty farmer, and was generally sup- dtohave had money about the house. ‘erriil says they met him aboat half a imile from his house; that King, without any Framing, walked ap and deliberately shot him in the bowels. Then ensued a terrible tussle, during whieh King shot him in the breast once, and twice in the neck. The vic tim picked up an old corn cutter and threw it at King and struck him tn the back. King seized the corn cutter and struck the old man over the bead, cleaving his skull, and fintsbed his work witha club. They then went to @ small stream and washed their bands, and then went to the house. THE OLD LADY King took an ax m the porch into the house, and presently came out with the old lady. They wa'ked together ® mo. ment when, without warning. he strack her with the axe across the head, nearly cutting it iu twain, She fell and he then struck her across the neck, severing the jugular vein.

He then threw the axe down by went into the hou arrested there they had about $11 persons THREATS OF LYNCHING The excitement is intense. About 1,500 people have gathered about the premises and Tsare entertained that there will be an atlempt to-night to take the prisoners from the jail and lynch them. The militia are under arms and a lot of extra police have been sworr in. The iatest developments go far to show that King was not concerned tn this bellish crime. He is known to have been in Logan at 4 o'clock on the day of te murder and at ¢ o'clock on the same night.
