RUMOR now has it that Mr. Ami Pretori- ous, of St. Louis, Is to be the new Commis- sioner of Indian Affairs. Joun A. HIESTAND, naval officer at Phil- adelphia, requests to be heard in reply to the report of the investigating commiitee on his office. COLLECTOR ARTHUR, of New York, ar- rived here this morning to consult with Sec. retary Sheiman relative to certain special Investigations mcently made in the New York custom house. THE CUBAN REVOLUTIONISTS received very recently, it 18 reported, a eargo of arms and munitions of war, which were !anded &D uvfrequented part of the coast by a schooner which sailed from one of our south- ern ports.

Commissioner Boutwell (the ex-S-nator) has the work well advanced. Under the law tne Secretary of State has two months tn which to revise it wiih the a) datory acts, and then be can certify to its accuracy and order the printing of 15,000 copies at the Govern- Mmevt Printing Office “witno it unnecssary delay.” By i a next. therefore, we may expect to have the new edition covering all the laws, with the revisions made by gress sipce 1x75 incorporated, down to the Forty-fourth Congress. The new edition will include the Articles ef Confeleration, the Declaration of Independence, the Ordinance 787 and the Coustitation of the Uuited States, with foot notes referring to the dict- sions of the federal courts thereon. LOOKING AFTER GENERAL REAL Es- TATE.—Within the last twelve years the government bas accumulated a large amount of real e#tate in various parts of the country, and particularly in the south, by reason of the violation by the owners of the provisions of the interal revenue laws, and i: now ap- pears that the accurnulation of that class of zoverninent property makes a very valuable aggregation. Attention has not been given to the matier, however, thai the interests of the government requ.re, and some time ago the Commissioner of Laternal Kevenue ap- polbted two agents to make personal exafut- bation of the subject to ascertain and report upon ‘he localities of such real estate, the condition of the titles thereto, the value, & avd to solicit purchasers. Mr. ED. W. ster, One of the agents of the department prosecute this business on With Secretary Sherman and Com mise toner Naum. to NAVAL OKDERS.—Liet ©.

Ex-Represen- tative John Lynch, of Maine, will bring out poe per on the ist of October, and the old Gi fice is Dow being put In shape for its issue from wat establishment. Among the journal experience and capacity men- Uoned as engaged the editorial torce are Mr. Clarence M. a, Mr. Peters, and Mrs. Briggs “Olivia.” The vew paper wiil, it is said, be independent in tone, Support “the policy,” and will keep a par- Ucularly vigilant eye Roo Mr. Blaine, with whom it is understood Mr. Lynch doss not “hiteb horses.” On the other hand the plans for an antt- administration paper, to be issued by ex- Public Printer Clapp, seem to be takin, some shape, and, accerding to rumor the old Chronicle establishment is likely to be utii- ized for the venture. Mr. Clapp is reported as ens. that ifbe does start a newspaper it will be “an out-and-out republican journal about whose views there can beno mistake.’ In the lightof a paying business eaterprise it would seem to be @ hazardous experiinent to start two new dailies in such ajournalistic eS yard as Washington city, but Messrs. Lyneh apd 8 have both been the found- ers of successiul papers, one at Portland, and the other at Buffalo, N. Y.,and they doubters think they know what they are about in breaking ground here. At any rate the two new pepe will atford employment for quite a pum! of persons, and will’ serve to puta deal of money in circulation here (for publishing a daily paper in Wash. ington is costly business,) and so they will be apt to recei 8m) welcome, quite reguidiess of pelities. Whether that wel- come wil) be to Logpitable graves rema!: be seen later. - Commander H Aporary © a8 to : D. C.. MONDAY, SEPT EMBER 17, 1877. uening Star.

Two secret service detectives, Abou avd Perkins, were sent ou! to inves iigate. They asceriained that a man named J. W. Fuuk furnisbed the coin to others wuo. passed it. The detectives had interviews with Favk and purchased some of the coin from him, They also learned from Fank that the money was made by Hatedinson On Satorday moruing, armed with a war- rant, Detective Perkins acrested Hutchinson and Funk. Tne former resisted, firing at the officer, who in self-defence shot and killed Hvtehinsop. Av inquest was held, when Perkins was exonerated and released. He then proceeded to Pitiaburg with Funk, who will be tried there. The corener's jury re- turned a vote of thanks to the officer for rid- ding the community of such a bad man Hutchinson lived in Baltimore. Over $i 00 in trade dollars, quarters and halves wor: found in his possession. THE SITTING BULL Commission, coasist- ing of Gen. Terry, Gen. Lawrence, of R.L and Gen. Corbin, of Ohio, secretary of the commission, Went west from Omaha last Friday. They go te Ogdeu, and {roi thence to Fort Shaw, and from Fort Shaw across the country some 150 fo 200 miles to Sitting Bull's rendezvous.

About $ o'clock this evening the buildings connected with a Chinese garden about one mile from Rocklin were baruel. It is posi- tively denied that the fire was caused by whites, and itis probable that the premises were abandoned and tired by the Chinese. Hundreds of our citizens viewed the dead bodies to-day. The excitement was intense during the ‘nigh’, and had the evidence ®gainst the prisoners beendeemed conclusive, ley would doubtless have been lynched at once. The cook at Grant’s boarding house coutd not be found, though the country and towns for miles around were scoured in the pursuit. THE CHINFSE ALL DRIVEN FROM ROCKLIN.
