SECRETARY SHERMAN is suffering with a se- vere cold, and is confined thereby to his house. Masor G. M. Lock woop, chief clerk at the In- terior department, has left the city for a short vacation. Nortick To BONDHOLDERS.—The Secretary of Treasury requests holders of 10 40 called bonds to forward them to the department as soon as. bie. It will be physically impossible to redeem promptly on the 1sth and 2ist instants the very large amounts then falling due unless the bonds are received at an early day. If sent forward at once they will be remitted for at maturity. MR. C148. B.STEXLE has not been appointed by Secretary Schurz solicitor for the Interior de- ment and the bureaus thereof as stated by a morning paper. Mr. Marble satisfactorily fills that position. Mr. Steele has, however, been re-admitted to practice as an attorney before the department. THE YELLOW Fever.—The press reports from Memphis are that yellow fever has broken out there. No reports from that city have been received by Dr. Hamilton, supervising surgeon penta of the marine hospital service. The latest report from any point concerning the fever received by Dr. Hamilton is trom Haytl, Where the fever has abated to such an extent that clean bills of health are being issued at, Port-au-Prince. For three months no clean bills have- been issued from there until now. The fever nas been continuous at Havana almost the entire winter, but not sufficiently prevalent to assume the epidemicform. It pre- vailed at Santos, Brazil and at Riode Janeiro. All eases from the latter place are taken to Jura Juba for treatment. As it is now midwinter in these places Dr. Hamilton does not think that infection is likely to come from there. He does not apprehend a repetition of the epidemic of last year in the south. It is ible that there may be sporadic cases at different points, but he thinks the samitary ae taken wilt be sufficient to check the disease, if there is any virtue in hygienic practices. On account of the negro exodus it is possible that infected baggage might be taken into Missouri and Kansas and communicate the disease to certain localities in those states. The pational board of health has no informa- tion concerning the fever up to half-past two this afternoon, except a confirmation of the ress report. Dr. Turner, the secretary, says, jowever, that the danger from the fever at Memphis is great. ‘THE COMMISSION created by the act of March 8d, 1879, to codify the land laws and also to make recommendations, with a view to im- portant changes in the existing land system, organized in this city to-day. Commissioner Williamson, of the General Land office, was selected as chairman, and A. T. Britton as secretary.

The duty of the commission, as detined this act, 1s to report to Congress, within one year from the time of its organization: 1st.

ARREST OF A MalL Rospen.—A special agent of the Post Office department has just arrested in New Mexico a mail robber belonging toa gang of Texas highwaymen. The judge grant- ed an order of removal to Texas for trial, but the U. 8. Marshal had no money to pay the necessary expenses. He telegraphed to the marshal of Texas, but the latter was in the same condition. The Post Office agent there- upon staited for Texas with the prisoner, the stage companies carrying him on trust, and the agent providing providing provisions for the $00 mile iourney, and guarding the desperado night and day himeelt. ‘THE VANDALIA arrived at New London, Con- necticut, yesterday afternoon, Naval ORDERS. — Leaves of absence are granted as follows: Commander E.

Charles Grosvenor, of Obio, who wag speaker of the lower house when the republi- cans had control of the Ohio legislature, arrived in the city to-day. The General calied on Se:- retary Sherman and other personal friends, and left this afternoon for the Maryland Lunatc Asylum, where Mrs. Grosvenor and her little daughter are visiting. Just now the General ‘s the subject of a good deal of newspaper crit - cism in his own state, because of his refusal to support the republican local ticket nomfnatcd in his county. In explanation of this action Le said that he had no other course to pursue aid maintain his own self-respect. “But General,” quoth the Star man, “you will ay rt the gubernatorial ticket? “‘] will, and it will be elected.” “ Ts Foster’s nomination a strong one?” “Yes, sir; the very strongest that coutd have been made.” “Stronger than that of Judge Taft, think your” “‘ Why, bless my soul, yes. Foster's nomina- tion is 25.000 votes stronger than Taft—ue has shown that already.” A LIVELY CAMPAIGN. “Will the campaign in Ohio be a lively one?” “It will. It will be the hottest that has been fought in the state since the war. The repub- cans will elect Foster, and If they carry Ham- iiton county, and the indications are that they will, they will also secure the legislature and elect_a republican to succeed Senator Thur- tian.” What of Ewing. Is he a strong candidate?” “Yes, he Is. I think the best nomination the democrats could possibly have made. Now you will find this to be the feature of the Ohio can- vass when itopens. Ewing campaign will be showy, brilliant. Foster's will not contrast with it In the superficial sense, but when it comes to counting the votes in the box Ewing will be sur- prised to find that a large vote he expects to be polled for him will have failed him.” “Do you mean by that, general, that the greenbackers will not vote for him?” “Well, I will answer that question in around- about way. Gen. Ewing made a speech re- cently in Columbus, wherein he treated rather gingerly the financial question. I am of the opinton, subject of course to fault, that. GENERAL EWING WILL DO A LITTLE HEDGING on the currency question, and if he does he will id a good many of the greenbackers crying fora Pa. The German democrats will not su port Ewing with his financial beristes, and in order to capture the hard money vote of the party Ewing is liable to loose the greenbackers, “Who is Ohio for as a Presidential leader?” “John Sherman. His ts the only name promi- nent in that state, and he will receive the sup- Port of the state first, last and all the time in the nominating convention. SHERMAN’S PRESIDENTIAL CHANCES. “Would Sherman’s Presidential chances have been advanced had he, himself led the republl- ubernatorial ticket in Onto?” “T think so. I think he made a great mistake in not allowing himself to be nominated. He Would then bave became the central figure in American politics; would have made a tremen- dous campaign; would have been triumphantly elected, and would have been uppermost in the public mind as the great republican leader.” “‘Of course, had he so desired, he could have received the nomination ?” “Without a doubt. All he had to do was to have indicated that he would accept. Not to Say that he wanted It, for if he would have ac- cepted he would have been nominated whether he wanted it or not.” Entirely too Healthy. Our objection to Washington as a National pe ‘al is that it is too heaithy. Since the re- ublican party came into power the streets have been improved, sewers have been constructed, and other bygienic processes have been resorted to, until the chances of a Con; n’s return his constituents in good health have been rendeted painfully large.—{St. Louis Globe-Dem- ocrats, MR. SEYMOUR PROBABLY MURDERE! ¥. Sun of yesterday says: Detectiv the central office, said yesterday: “ W his case, as in many others, experienced much difficulty to obtain from people who know any information which would ww light on the mystery. The reason {s because they fear im- risonment in the house of detention. ‘You know,” he continued, “ that often the witness of a crime is held in that place for weeks and sometimes months, while the criminal under bail is allowed to at liberty. From a resi- dept of the neighborhood I ‘have obtained important information. This person’s name I am not at liberty to disclose. So great is his dread of the House of Detention that he would not, eon a oe citizen, give the in- formation lest he be ordered under arrest. Well, this man says that he saw a man conversing with Mr. Seymour on the north side of the build- ings about 12 o'clock that night. He described the man as a person about five feet eight in- ches in height, and of stout built. He worea long, dark sack coat. ‘Theman turned from Mr. Seymour, but as the latter walked away turned, and, walking toward him at an angle, sud- denly came ape him. At this time re was si lowed by an explosion of a pis- tol, and simultaneo there were many others all about the neighborhood. POLITICAL PLOTTING IN New YoRK.—Corres- ondence of the Philadelphia Ledger, from New ork, July sth, says:—As the time draws near for-the state conventions of the two great par- Ues to nominate a governor, etc., the plotting and counterplotting increases with an activity that fs rarely visible in an “off” year, Atpres- ent the indications are that Mr. Cornell will be the republican candidate for the head of the ticket, ond that the democrats will renominate Gov. Robinson. A DISTINGUISHED PARTY.—Hon. M. R. Waite, j Chief Justice of the United State: Judge Hugh £. Bond, of Baltimore; Gen. B. F. Butler; Gen. J. H, Martindale, of Rochester, N. Y.; Geo. W.

Seymour, that the jury would probably have to render a verdict of accidental death. The inquest will be held Saturday next. WOMAN SUFFRAGE.—Boston 1s to have a little of woman suffrage. Women are permitted to vote for oe he tte ae ee and an appeal has been issuc 13, Agasalz and twenty other ladies expressly their faith that “those women who care for the wise instruc- tion of childréh will avail themselves of this opportunity.” Coat MINERS’ STRIKES.—Part of the miners of the ae Mountain and Sterling collieries, at Shamokin, Pa., went to work yesterday on a compromise of five cents advance on the wagon. About 1,000 refuse the compromise. It is re- ported that the Lehigh men will also strike. ‘The operators say the market will not perinit the advance asked. It is thought the compro- tolse will be accepted within a week. PAYING THEM Back.—The north has been shipping us apres since early last fall. On Motday Col. S. T.
