No letters testamentary will issue in this Dis- trict, but a transeript of the entire record will be sent to Peru, where the estate will be ad- ministed upon. ’ The papers were presented to the Register (Col. Webster) about 11 o’¢luck to-day, and the will being written in Spanish found necessary that a translation be made atonce. This was done, and the d po- sition of witnesses taken in open court, with the exception of the widow, who being too in- disposed to come down made her deposition at her residence, and the papers were all com. pleted by 1 o'clock.

MACKENZIB’S OFFICIAL ACCOUNT OF His Rarp.—General Mackenzie, in a tele- graphic report of his receut raid into Mexico, which has just been received at the War office says that his command returned safe: that they accomplished Botiing on account of the ineiiciency and sickness of his guides. A force of Mexican regulars crossed his path twice, each time refusing to render assistance in pursuing the raiders. The officer in command of the Mexicans states that he had orders to obstruct the passage of American troops through Mexican territory, but he failed to attack Mackenzie. The latter says that he does net blame the Mexicans for not attack- ing him, for the reason that he was too wel prepared, and this was fully known to the Mexican commander. LABOR AND WAGES IN GERMANY.—The con- sul at Brunswick sends to the Department of Brate & teport of labor and wages in his dis- trict of Northern Germany. He divides la- bor into three classes: Mechanics and skilled artisans of all kinds, who receive from 48 to 88 cents a re! ordinary laborers, including farm and field hands, who receive from 40 to 64 cents a day, without board: and railway hands, laborers on public works, and the like, fio get from 44 to 60 cents a day. A laborer’s family of husband, wife and three children, can live very comfortable on 900 mark, (about #215) per annum, and if steady work offers ean make both ends meet. In most cases the wife and elder children contribute to the general support by performing other work whieh is easily found in Brunswick. Trade is especial. ly dull in that district ; work of many kinds is readily obtainable, but workmen are not con- tent to take such work as offers, or at offered prices. The Socialist party is responsible for this state of things. The rapid development of German trade and the success of German arms in 1870-72 led the laborer to believe his Position would thenceforth be one of ease and afuence ; and when the commercial reaction came, the working classes, now grown accus- tomed to luxuries before unknown, discontented and indisposed 19 Work, Cleveland. Ohio. to | THE POTTER INVESTIGATION, en. Boynton. After our report of the proceedings before Potter's committee closed yesterday, Gen. Boynton was closely cross-examined by Gen. Butler, the latter apparently trying to draw from the witnesss the admission that. the President told him that Anderson had been appointed consul at Funchal, beeause he was of political seerets which it wis ve kept quiet than made pabiic. There was quite a sharp passage between the witness and his cross-examiner as will be seen by the annexed repori aia By Ge suller—Q. Have you not said this substantially, that ‘you asked the President how he tomake the appointment of sucit aman i Whom Such charges were m and he ‘aS possessed of some poitieal secrets?

Have you never used these rds speaking of it, that the President said he was appointed “on account of matters not best be known?” A. No, sir, I have not; and I want you to understand that Tdo not propose to make any answer here that will retlect upon the President of the United St : Q. Why not, if itis the truth? A, T will tell you why, because I propose to state exactly What took place, and hot give halfway an- swers which may’ reflect upon the President of the United States.

Alter further discassion 1 the witness was continued as follows: By Mr. Butler:—(Q.

About the same time; it Was a mere matter of newspaper talk. (). Where were you when the McVeagh com. mission went down to Louisiana? A. T was in Washington, Mr. Cox.—I desire to take the sense of the committee as to whether we propose to go into conversation Ihave had as long a_eon- nee. rst hear of tt the question of the doings of the MeVeagh commission in April, 1877, or whether we have authority to do so under the resolution of Gou- gress under which we are acting. The committee then, on motion of Mr. MeMahon, at 3:45 p. m., went into secret ses- sion to consider this ahd other matters con- nected with the workings of the committee, and shortly after adjourned. To-Day’s Proceedi: The Potter committee met t 11:15 o'clock. MKS. JENKS WAS REVALLED and asked if she the letters she promised to give the committee. She said she had not; that they had not arrived, and that she did not know if they would be of value when they came. Q. When did yor see Mrs. Dan Weber last? A. A few days before I left for Washington. L was requested to take a note to her by General Sheldon. Isa the note ; it was open. Itread, “Please come to New Orleans, aud Mrs. Jenks will explain.” Q. Did you know for what purpose Mrs. Weber was wanted in New Orleans? A. [have not the remotest idea. When I got to Don- aldsonyijle Mrs. Weber said that Anderson had said [ had got $100.000 for some document. Isaid it wasfalse. 1 asked her to go and see i heidon. x s Mrs. Weber requested by you or by uSheldon to make a statement under oatir? A. Tnever requested such a statement ; I only remained with her one hour. . e Witness said that Mrs. Weber did not re turn with her to New Orleans, Q, What reason did she make for not re- trning? A, She said she did not want to hear anything more about “the document ;” that she did not have it. Q. Isn't it true that Gen. Sheldon request- ed you toask Mrs. Weber to come to New Orleans and make a statement with reference t@ the Sherman letter? A. He did not so state tome. Witness denied that she knew Col. Otis of inapolis or that she had ever had a,con- yersation with him with reference to the Sherman letter. Further examination of the witness dis- closed the fact that Gen. Sheldon wanted Mrs. Weber to come to Washington, and witness was sent with the note in person to make tuis explanation to her. _., GEN BOYNTON WAS RECALLED =, with reference to corrections of his teSti- mony of yesterday. The corrections made were immaterial. GEN. BUTLER CROSS-EXAMINES GEN, BOYN- TON Gen. Butler then asked Gen. Boynton it he remembered conversing with any one on tue subject of Anderson's appointment last July on the eorner of Coreoran and 15th streets, i is city? Witness replied that he did not. Q. Did you say in that conversation “This confirms What the President told me. I had seen a statement in a paper about Anderson and saw the President about it, and the Presi deni said ‘we’ or ‘he’ had to appoint hia?” A. Tam sure I did not say that. Witness denied that he had said that all the fellows down there (meaning Louisiana} who did the dirty work came up heré and got of- fices, and that the President had said “I had toa praise him(Anderson) to keep himsquict.” «. Where were you at the time the MeVeigh commission went to New Orleans? A. I was in Washington, and I think, I was here the day they returned. Witness said Le talked with Gen. Hawiey and Gen. Harlan wheu they returned trom Louisiana ; had a talk with Gen.Harlan beture he Went to Louisiana. «. Did Gen. Harlan say anything to you about his possible candidature for a place’ oa the Supreme bench? A. He did; it was un derstood that he was a candidate for the Su- reme bench vacancy. The day before Har- lan went to Louisiana he said to me: ‘I want you to ind out for me, if you can, while we are in New Orleans, if Gen: Bristow is a can- didate for the place.” He said if Gen. Bris- tow was hota candidate he thought it possi ble that the commission would be able to re eve the President of the embarrassing Louisi- ana question, and that he would be appointed on the bench—that is, that such a soiation of ~ question would promote iis candidacy for e place.
