A telegram from tort Garry, Manitoba, under daté of yéstétday, Augoat 3, reports as fol- fows:—“Lord Gordou” shot “himSeif of Sa turday fast at his residence, Headingly, in this province. Two English detectives arrested him, and he promised to go quietly with them if they would not go through the United States. While in bis roont preparing for the jour- a, he biew out his brains with a pistol. The deceased was arrested jn New York, on the 10th of April, 1872, at the suit of Jay Gould, onw charge rejative to the ownership of some six hun- dred shares of Erie Ratlway stock. The event at- tracted a considerable amount of public attention at the moment, The question was asked, “Who is he? He had lived, during sume days previ- ously, at the Metropolitan Hotel, observing a sort of semi-dignified seclusion. He was of “un- certain age,” but active and sei!-possessed. Dur- ing thé investigations which wook place im the police courts tn New York and at other points of the United States he has described himseli as Lord George Gordon, Karl of Aberdeen; as Gordon H. Gordon and a8 Gordon Gordon, claiming that he belonged to the peerage of Scotiand, no matter how he varied his name. It was shown that he was not the Eariof Aberdeen. The law proceed- ings which were instituted in consequence of his money frauds were complicated and tedious. His career since has been checkered and very troubie- some, particularly so to the Territorial judges and the police. He has been arrested, bailed, re- arrested, indicted and pursued as a fugitive from justice, and now he has ended his chameleon-like career by his owa Land, “slain by a bullet trom rusty barrel.” DEATH OF A LADY SUPERIOR AT SEA, Boston, August 3, 1874.

Why the Treasury Calls in so Few Bonds at a Time—Extensive Counter- felting in Europe, Requiring Careful Scrutiny. The reason why the Secretary of the Treasury Imited the call for five-twenty bonds to twenty- five millions has been variously stated. The Treasury Officials have uniformly said that it was impossible fur the Department to handle at one time more than that amount. This reason has been generally accepted until to-day, when it was ascertained that not only the call of the 186 inst. but the subsequent calls are likely to bring in well executed counterfeit five-twenty bonds, known to have been extensively sold in Europe, the coupons of which bave repeatedly vexed tho United States Treasury, and in one instance re- quiring that the counterfeit coupon should be photographed and a copy sent to all the sub-treas- uries and national banks. In addition, a circular carefully prepared by Treasurer Spinner was sent to every newspaper tn the United States and Can- ada fully describing the bogus coupons. ‘The Treasury Department officials are thereiore so- licitous to prevent any of the counterieits passing the experts, and in order to do this, verily vhe number of the bonds, examine the coupons already paid ofeach particular number and de- nomination, it will require much time, and it is doudtiul whether the experienced force will really be able to dispose of the bonds under the first call as rapidly as the business interests of the syndicate, it is anticipated, will require. In answer to the question why so much pains was not taken with previous calls, your correspondent was informed that 1t was because the department had no knowledge of a counterteit, or rather a duplicate issue, until after the five-twenties had run into series, Now the calls were reaching tuto the later series, and it was absolutely necessary the department shoulda be on the alert, The ex- perience of the Treasury oficials with the spurious seven-thirties will not be lost in the scrutiny which the called bonds, due next month under the call of June 2and 3, and those due onthe Ist of Novemver are to receive, THE MAIL CAR3IAGE, The Postal Car Difficulty Still Unsettled— Position of the Contesting Parties— Latest Reply of President Hinckley to the Postmaster General.

MARSHALL, Postmaster General:— L nave your telegrams, 1 shall not retuse to take the mails to-morrow if you send them to our sta- tion, lor your act im asking us to carry the mails Will be our assurance that you mean to pay us our price, and | leave you iree to decide the questivn as to employing our services or not. You, of course, will not employ them unless you mean to pay fur them. ISAAC HINCKLEY, resident Philadelphia, Wilmington and Baltimore Railroad Company. Postmaster General Marshall replied to-day as follows :— Your telegram is received, in which you say you Will not refuse the mails i t to your station. If you receive or Carry them it must be only on the erms of the law. Under no circumstances can or will the department directly or impliedly under- take or assume to pay a greater compensation than the law allows. George S. Bangs, General Superintendent of the Railway Mail Service, is in- structed accordingly. * Subsequently the Postmaster General, on re- ceipt of the lever above relerred to, sent the fol- lowing :— Your letter of August 1, only just received, since my previous telegram of to-day was sent otk It would, if received earlier, have made no change in that telegram, Mr. Hinckley has never directly refused to take the mails, but always coupled it with a suggestion O! increased pay; so that the department ieels hardly justified in making any arrangements. On Saturday Mr. Bangs addressed hiin a note, putting several direct questions, replios to which would lead to a settlement of the difficulty; but Mr. Hinckley declined to answer the questions, Messrs, Hunt and Petterbridge, special agents of the department, are also in Philadelphia, and the matter will doubtiess be settled in a day or two, No Change as Yet Between Philadelphia and Baltimore—President Hinckley Considers His Terms Accepted if His Cars are Used. PHILADELPAIA, August 3, 1874 The route agent on the mail route irom Philadel- phia to Baltimore went in his special car this morning as usual, and distributed the mails at all points between the two cities. The 12:15 and 12:45 trains carried the mails through. President Hinckley has every reason to belicve that the de- partment has accepted his proposition, which was that, if the government used the company’s cars, “We consider that you agree to pay us the rate asked—viz., sixty per cent more than the present rate, and that that rate svall cover the period from July 1 to January 1.” Mr. Hinckley Puts the Responsibility on the Post Office Department.

Serious Disturbance Between the Mor- mon Policemen and the United States Marshals. BLOODSHED HAPPILY AVOIDED. The Mayor Arrested and Released—Success of the Mermon Ticket. SALT LAKE Ciry, August 3, 1874 The general election jor Delegates to Congress, Representatives to the Legislature, Probate Judge and other oflcers was held to-day, and, although carried througb without bloodshed, was near raising a riot of no mean dimensions, There were two tickets in the fleld, the people’s ticket, with George Q. Cannon for Delegate—wno was renomi- nated by the Mormons, notwithstanding the de- claration of Congress that hereafter no polygamist would be allowed to take his seat—and the liberal, with Robert N, Baskin as their figure- head, THE MORMONS AND THE CHURCH gave their support tothe people's and the Gentties voted the liberal ticket. During the morning everything passed off quietiy, and the Mormon elders voted their ten or twelve wives without opposition. A few Gentile ladies appeared at the polls, but they were outnumbered ten to one by their Mormon sisters, THE FIRST DISTURBANCE arose from the refusal of the inspector of elections to receive the vote of a Gentile even under protest. The Mormon police hastled him out and a United States deputy Marshal interfering, was arrested and locked up. A writ was immediately issued, and, armed with that document, the deputy marshals went to the lockup and demanded their comrade, They were at first refused, but a3 the Marshal said they would take him anyway the police gave him up. Several warrants were then placed in the hands of the deputy marshals, and two or tnree Mormon policemen that were INTERFERING WITH THE GENTILE VOTERS were arrested and taken to the Marshal’s office. Late this afternoon the police acted very vio- lently, and the marshals made several arrests, Mayor Welis came down in the crowd in order to assist in keeping the peace, and in the excitement was arrested by a warshal, but subsequently let go. At one time tne police clutched some men, and, shutting the dooro! the Cour? House with a | bang, the moo thought it was a pistol report, and | every one DREW THEIR WEAPONS, but some one promptiy accounted for the noise and order was restored. Messrs. Maxwell and Smith, acted with cool judg- ment and assisted materially in preventing what would have been @& most disastrous fight, as one shot in tuat crowd wouid have started A MORMON AND GENTILE RIOT that migh* have spread through the entire city. This 1s ths first election at which the Gentiles have been vie to put in a bold front and demand their rights as citizens, In former years the Mor- mon police had it all their own Way. THE RETURNS have not yet been made up, but it is generally conceded that the Mormon ticket is elected. The Gentiles clatm to have polled by far a larger vote than in former years. The city is all quiet now. There bas been considerable DISTURBANCE DURING THE ELECTION of to-day at this place and adjoining towns on ac- count of disputes as to the qualifications of voters, the challenges having been liberal. Daring the afternoon a Deputy United States Marshal was ar- rested and confined, but was afterwards liberated on a Writ of absas corpus, Several policemen were arrested during the day by Deputy Marshals, and at one time there was A GENERAL MBLEE. of citizens and officers, At the Central precinct. after the close of the polls this evening, Peter Chuton, Judge of Election of the Central precinct and late Police Judge, and several policemen, were arrested by the United States Marshal. The charge against Clinton is that he carried off the ballot box at noon, when he went to dinner, and the police are charged with interfering with voters at the polls and creating @ disturbance. AN IMMENSE CROWD followed Judge Clinton to the Territorial Marshal's office, and a riot seemed imminent, when Governor Woods addressed the assembled crowd, which goon dispersed, No more trouble ts anticipated, The result of the election cannot be ascertained to-night, THE ARKANSAS CONSTITUTIONAL CONVEN- iN LitrLe Rocr, Angust 3, 1874.

The Globe Theatre, The theatrical season was opened last night very successfully at this house, As was fitting, the season Was ushered in by the lighter skirmishing Of the variety corps, and, if we may judge by the rash of the public, there was a real want for some place where amusement could be obtained. Most of the names on the bill are already known to fame, and as the old time Javorites appeared on the stage they met immediate and warm recogni- tion, Among these John and Bob Hart, Nelse Sey- mour, John Queen and Miss Maggie Gray came im for hearty and merited welcome, The enter- tainment is exceedingly varied, and was much relished by the crowded audience that filled the house from pit to dome. The upper portions es pecially were filied in a way that must have been quite trying for the cccupants; but, fortunately, the cold spell allowed them to bear the crush with equanimity. The periormance began with the domestic sketch entitied “The Two Puddi- joots,” which gave Mr. Ketchum an opportu- nity to display his wonderiul mobility of features. It, however, was, on the whole, rather tiresome, and the management would do well to raplace it by something brighter. Indeed, it was with a sense of relie! that we saw the ebon face of that renowned and mighty orator bob Hart appear at the wings, a pleasure that was increased when he proceeued to deiiver bis very learned ad- dress on the antiquity of man and the connection between Darwin and the monke Having | put Aimself in such bad = company he cleverly got himself out of the scrape, to the amusement, {{ not the instraction, of the @udience. “Hugh Fay, in the amusing char- acter sketch ‘Ireland and Africa,” made a [aster ed success, displaying & humor that was road enough to make itself felt by the dullest person present, and yet never passing the bounds which separate satire from Caricature, Pretty | Maggie Gray sung with great taste aud executive ability two of her amusing serio-comic songs, and received the well deserved compliment of @ re- call. Mile. de Rosa appeared in a beautivul fairy ballet, entitied “Spring Roses,’? which was iresh and Julloi charms, The evening's perlormances verminated with Bob Hart’s new Wwhimaicaiity, “Nip and Tuck," which sent the audience away in @ thoroughly satisfied mood, Cast of Boucicault’s New Drama.
