" THE irreverond editor of the Ash land Times is to be held responsible for the following impious remarks : "The Omaha Union calls one of the postal outfits 'one of the most prominent , us well as one of the most intelligent and truthful repub licans. ' Oh , Lor.I ! We wonder what he looks like ; we wonder if he has horns and eats hay. " A COPY of General F. C.

VERY LATEST. MIDNIQ-HT. SAN FRANCESCO , Sept. 7. The supreme court to-day , in n. habeas corpus case of twenty-three Chinese women brought here on the steamer Japan , decided that the State law is constitutional which regulates such immigration , andro- maiided them to the master of the steamer Japan. They will be re turned to China. ST. PAUL , September 7. Governor Davis has written an oflbial letter to the attorney general of the State , requesting him to bring suit at the earliest possible moment against Charles Mcllrath , late state auditor and his sureties for every cause of action which can he sustained against him and them , from evidence adduced by the re cent report of the special legislative committee , who investigated Mcll- rath'a accounts. NEW YORK , Sept. 7. Nutter , a young man residing with his parents , on the corner of Summit and Magnolia avenues , Jersey City Heights , appeared be fore Justice Aldice to-day , and charged Messrs. James Dunn , John Gordon and other persons connected with Rev. J. S. Glendenning's church , had tried to induce him , by threats of exposing him in relation to an alleged case of larceny , to swear he was the father of Mary E. Pomeroy's child. The publication of the affidavit by the local papers has renewed interest in the scandal. ST. PAUI. , Sept. 7. A dispatch from Bismarck to the Evening Dispatch , says a party of fifty men will leave Bismarck in about thirty days for the Black Hilb. The party will be composed of experienced miners and hunters , who ot only know the color of gold , and the habits of the Indians , but are sharp enough to evade the military , and who , when once in the liiJlsijiye 33 Indians live , and conseqlf uYpfS ! ! . not bother themselves with supplies to any great extent. SALT LAKE , Sept. 7. The Third District Court met to day.Tho The Ann Eliza suit for divorce and alimony comes upon Thursday. There was considerable excite ment at Toalo to-day , owing to a report that a demand had been made on the late Probate Judge for the records of the court , which were refused. The county court is in ses sion there , and the United States Marshal is there with his deputies. There were a large number of armed Mormons there , and a fight was an ticipated , but no collision occurred. LITTLE ROCK , Sept. 7. The enrolled copy of the ne\v con stitution was .signed to-day by all the members but seven ; all republi cans. The convention adopted a series of resolutions condemning all the acts of violation and outrage committed in the State and in the south generally against any class of people , and particularly reprobating any outrages against the colored people and all attempts to stir up a strife between them and the whites , cordially inviting Immigration to the .State , and promising the pro- tectlb'h"of the Jaw to all good citi zens. BOSTON , Sept. 7. The widow of the late Colonel Thomas E. Chickeiing sued the Glebe Life fnsurance Company for $20,000 , the amount of thfl pqjjcy on her husband's life , payment on which was refused on the ground that the premiums were not paid. The plaintiff showed that the agent of the company guaranteed the pay ment of the premiums as an offset to his indebtedn" s to the Cnicker- ing Company , and the Supreme Court to-day rendered judgment against the Insurance Company , holding that it was bound by the promipi ? of its agent. COLUMBUS , Olijo , Sppt. 7. The State Fair cbmi'nenced fo-'day with a much larger attendance than is usual on the finat day , which is devoted almost entirely to prepara tion. The weather Is beautiful , Up to this time the entries in all the departments are more numerous than for years. It is now feared that even the immense space set apart In nineliuHs 'for exhibition , will not be sufficient , Tlifrteeil States are represented by various ar- tjcjes of interest. NEW YORK , Sept. 5. A Berlin letter says that the ac quittal of Capt. Warner , of the Ger man navy , after trial on a charge growing out of the capture , by him , of two Spanish war vessels flying Cantonal flags , is regarded ' as a triumph of the naval over' the diplomatic service. The NorJ D.eutscho Allegemane Zeitung , Bis marck's organ , says : The result of the trial will be a disappointment to the diplomatic branch of the pub lic service. It must be evident that if military and naval officers are to be permitted to interfere of their own will in pojjtipal complication of the other States , the conduct of the diplomatic affairs of the govern ment through the foreign office will become difficult if not impossible. The members of tue Plymouth Church are contributing to a fund for the relief of Mrs. Tilton. Al ready .seventeen hundred dollars have been cbHootcd. NEW YORK , Sept. 7. The answer of Henry Ward Beech er to the complaint of Theodore Til- ton was received to-day by Boech- er's attorneys , and at once served on the plaintiff and also from the office of Tracy , Catjon & Aroad- leagh , notice of trial for the term of court beginning on the 3d Monday in September. " The defendant an- wers to the complaint : First , that each and every allegation in said complaint contained , except that plaintiff and Miss Elizabeth M. Richards were mariied October 2d , 1855 , and lived together as husband and wife up to 1874 , Is utterly false ; 2d , that the defendant never had at any time or any place any unchaste or improper relations with the wife of plaintiff , and never attempted or sought tp have any such relations. [ Signed ] SHEARMAN & STERLING. Beecher's affidavits accompany ing the answer were dated Twin Mountain , N. H. , and attested be fore N ew Hampshire officials. Ser vice is acknowledged by Tilton's at torneys. A counter notice of trial Was at the same time served by Morris & Pearsall upon Shearman * Sterling , ' 4 O'CLOCK P. M. Specially Beported for the Omaha Daily Ber , by the At' Hc and Pacific TeleEraPh do. BROOKLYN , Sept. 6. This afternoon , as a Christening party were passing through Devoe street , a German , named George Lutz , came up out of a lager beer saloon to give them a salute. He drew a revolver and fired recklessly , one ball striking a woman , Lina Chumarck , in the right arm , and Mary Bethinger , a child which Lina was carrying , was struck by another ball in the head. Both arc fatally injured. Lutz was arrested. WASHINGTON , Sept. 7. Commander Belknap , in a private letter dated at Alaska , August 2 , states that he would run back out side to Toanaga and complete another line of soundings from Alaska to San Francisco. He has completed a line of deep sea sound ings between the coast of the United States and Japan , and they fully demonstrated the feasibility of lay ing a submarine telegraph between the two coasts. Commander Belk nap will make an elaborate report of his operations in the Pacific in time to have it transmitted to Con gress with the annual report of the Secretary of the Navy. As a com plement to the experience and skill of Commander Belknap in hydro graphy , he will probably be detailed for this service with the United States coast survey. The Republican congressional del egation from Alabama have asked that troops may be stationed at con venient points in the second , third , and fourth districts. Archbishop Purcell will be assisted at the Fitch-Sherman wedding cere mony by Father i'oung , of the order of St. Dominic , who many years ago united in matiimony the late venerable Judge Ewing and his wife. All -the arrangements are most elaborate , and the affair , as a wedding , will ifever have been equalled. There will be eight bridesmaids , as follows : Miss Lizzie Sherman , sister of the bride ; Miss Phillips , of Cincinnati ; Miss Patter son , Miss Msrcy , daughter of Gen. Marcyof the U. S. A. ; Mi&s Ewing , Miss BessieSmith and MissShenvin. The groomsmen will be C. W. Rae , of the. Engineer Corps of the United States Navy ; Lieut. Hunter , United States Navy ; Lieut. Russell , U. S. Marine Corps ; PaymasterCochran , U.S. Navy ; Edwin Wells , Engi neer corps U. S. Navy ; Lieut. Wood , U. S. Navy ; Lieut. George Gadrine , of Boston , and Thomas Sherman , brother of the bride. The bride's dress , imported from Paris , is white gros gram silk , with crape finibh. This is trimmed with white satin and point lice , looped up with orange flowers and clematis. The Sunday Capital , in speaking of the regret they feel at the contemplated departure of the Sherman family from Washington , says , however , it is not improbable and indeed quite possible , some day not far in the future that the Sherman's , may re turn and make their home in the White Houan NEW YORK , Sept 7. A World special from Denver , Colorado , says that the excitement over the gold discovery in the Black Hills has penetrated to Denver , and a largo party is organizing to set out early in the spring. It will number one hundred and fifty men , well armed and equipped , and will be able to'set' the Sioux at defiance. Sheridan's injunction , prohibiting a trespass on tieir reservation , is considered a dead letter , as a similar one , made ' with regard to San Juan country , 'was never sustained. The partj leave the latter part of Febru ary. ary.A A special from Long Branch says the season is almost ended. The United States Hotel is closed. The West End , Mansion , Ocean and Howlard's close on the 15th ; the Metropolitan closes at the end of the month. The cottages have also been vacated. The early departures are the result of bad weather and strong easterly gales. Many churph.es of this city and Brooklyn rpopencd yesterday , and the advantage of summer re < it was shown in the unusual vigor of pujpjt utterances , as wellns in the striking variety of the themes , A large majority of the pastors and rectors were in their own pulpit ? , and the congregations were quite large. The Herald published another long spns.atjon.nl dispatch from Bos ton this morning , intimating that Beecher's friends are endeavoring to prevail upon Moultoji to forbear publishing any further statements for several flays , Moultoii was stopping at the Tre- mont House , but left Saturday for Lowell to visit Butler. During his sojourn .here Moulton has boon much of the time engaged with James Redpath and other prominent friends of Beecjier , Cleveland , one of the commit tee , is also at Tremont , arid the Herald surmises that he comes in the interest of Beecher. Moulton declines 'to say what con clusion he has "arrived" i'n the matter. He returns to Boston to day , and it is probable that some detinjfe action will be taken concerning - corning the publication or suppres sion of his statement. The Herald thinks Beecher him self will be In Boston this week. The Herald publishes a letter from Goshen , Orange county , N. Y. , un der date of September 5 , stating that there is great excitement in that village over the supposed presence " ence of "Charley Ross , the child kid napped from Philadelphia" " It ap pears that a priest named Father Kenney , had rescued the child from a woman in Cuba , who had proba bly stolen him , and 'had brought him to a family in Goshen , named { Stiles. Sheriff Hoyt had a conver sation with the boy , when the latter said that his name was Bobby Char ley , and that he had been stolen from Philadelphia. Father Ken ney has gone to Philadelphia , and the family refusoto give any further information until his return. The boy , it is understood , bears a strik ing resemblance to Charley Ross. WASHINGTON , Sept. 7. Directions have been , issued to the commandants of the navy yards who , in accordance therewith have appointed a committee to examine and report upon the merits of a new system of caulking boiler-seams , and it is therefore expected that a series of interesting experiments will be made during thocomlng week. The system is the invention of Mr. Jas. Connery , Cbie'fj.of the Boiler department of the Baldwin Locomotive Works , to whom letters patent Jwe been granted. . < c. WASHINGTON , September 6. After the dinner to bo given to the Aztic club at the White House , on the 14th iust. , the President will return to Long Branch , where ho will remain until the 1st of Octo ber , when he will return to Wash ington with his family for the win ter. Congress at its last session appro priated § 50,000 for the printing of the agricultural report for.1873. A dispute arose oetween the Commis sioner ot Agriculture and the pub lishers in regard to the disbursement of moneys , which has delayed the publishing of the report The commissioner referred the matter to the Attorney General , who decides that the disbursement properly belongs to the Department of Agriculture. The publisher and printer acquiesces in the opinion and will at once proceed to the printing of the report , which is said to be one of the most important is sued from the Department. Judge Watts , the commissioner , will probably be candidate for Judge of the county court of Colum bia county , Pa. In case of his elec tion h ° will retire from the Bureau of Agriculture. - NEW YORK , Sept. 7. An erroneous impression seems to prevail , that the cable now being laid across the Atlantic Ocean Is that of the Direct United States Ca ble Company. Such , however , is not the fact , the new cable being owned by the Anglo-American Co. , and is the fifth cable laid by them. The steamer Faraday with the di rect United States cable , has not yet started on her mission. As the season is now far advanced it is probable that the laying of the cable will be postponed until next year , in all probabilities till the coming of August , this month being most favorable for the purpose. The Herald this morning editori ally discusses the position of affairs as between the north and south since the Jate war , at some length , and advocates a national convention for a fraternal discussion of "War , its issuesburdensand , responsibilities , " in order to secure a lasting peace and thorough reconstruction. BOSTON , Sept. 7. The Pacific mail steamship Peking anchored at the Boston light , eleven miles from this city , last night and remained there until this morning , when she came up and anchored a mile out from the Long wharf , op posite State street.

Four tugs are kept constantly running to accommodate the people. She will remain open to inspec tion to 6 p. m. There will be an elegant reception for the ladies. Visitors to the Peking express themselves greatly pleased with everything connected with her , and seemed to take great interest in ex amining that her. The Ptking leaves to-morrow for New York. Ionic , Sept , 7.
