KENSINGTON , Ills. , December i3. !
A man named Arri Do Young entered
the school house and began to abuse
Miss llyo Brennan , the school teach
er , in a shameful manner for keeping
a couple of children of his after
school for not knowing their lessons.
Ho then beat her in an outrageous
manner. Her outcries brought the
other teacher , a young man , from an
other room , but De Young knocked
him down , and would have stabbed

Some 1,200 laborers have arnvedjfrom

many as 2,000 more are expected
early in January. It is said that as
soon as the dry season has fairly set
in , quite a rush' will bo made qn the
line of the road-as the umchijiory
and other requisites have arrived at
Colon to commence operations. .
Dates.from Lima are to the Mtli of
.November. Affairs hi Peru weem to
have assumed a most appalling condi
tion. Pierola's most intimatu and
trustworthy friend , Gen. Caeeroa. has
also forsaken him and declared him
self superior genoral'and political and
military chief of the departments of
thuCuutreinaproclanntionontha2lth
of November. In tins proclamation
Gen. C.icuros states his action in as
suming tlio otliue was guided Holely by
the desire to promote that union. in
the country which ho considered
.necessary for its success and to destroy
the poworof 1'iorola , which had become
in element of discord. Aa a matter
of course , Caceros is actuated solplv
by personal motives. He in disgusted
at the success of his former Btiboydi-
nates in the south who liuvo seized
command in morclmbitabloand profit
able regions than those Piorola vliad
SttoteuMiint Au'l ho is. 4 oH * disinVftiJifJ
to surrender Montero. From * 'the
southern departments there is noth
ing new , although they are all in a
ferment. Mas holds Yea , and will
not desert Picrola finally ; he will
have to proclaim himself now that all
huvo deserted his beloved chief.
Suargo and Laporro had left Arequi-
pa for Ayacuchos with troops
to capture any Piorolaists there might
bo in Ayacuchos. Neither of these
two leaders nor San llainon , prefect
of Arequipa , will obey either Caoerous
or Montcro , nor will those latter obey
the former , so there are really three
different powers serving the interior.
The following letter of Minister
Hurlburt is causing quite : i Honsut.km
in L'eru :
"To Notables of Lima :
< $ GKNTUMKN : At your request , I
make the follow ing declaration :
"
"Firstly.--Tho" _ United States of
America is firmly in favor of the cessa
tion of hostilities between Chili and
Porn , and the prompt ro-eat.iblwh-
ment of peace.
"Secondly. The United States of
America has decided to oppose all
dismemberment ot Peru , except with
the free and full consent of the na
tion.
"Thirdly. They are of the opinion
that Chili has acquired as the result
the war the right to warindomineritly ,
and that Peru c.innot refuse such pay
ment. The government of Chilti
knows that these are the ideas of the
United States , but divisions which
exist in Peru paralyze the good offi
ces of the United States , , and give a
pretext to Chili to elude the action of
the l/niteu States in conformity with
our desires , and to prolong the Htato
of military occupation of Peru. Chili
says : 'Wo also desire peace , but
there is no one hero competent
to arrange it. ' This declaration is un
fortunately Iruo. For this state of
affairs the only remedy is to defend in
Peru itself the union under whosoever
may bo elected , which will destroy
the pretext of Chili , and give to the
United States the advantage which it
requires , and ot which it will know
how to take advantage. In my
opinion nothing also will savu the
country from military occupation by
Chili. Peru must save itself by a
sacrifice of personal ambitions on the
altar of the redumption of the coun
try."I
"I remain , gentlemen , yours very
truly , 8. A. Hujunur. "
Rumors are to the effect that the
Chileans intend sending an army into
Arequipa from Matlento , commanded
by ( Jen. Lagoo. and another from
Libna through the interior to the same
city under command of Gen. Lynch ,
whoso successor in the command of
the forces in Lima ( Col. Guna ) has
already arrived.
On the 1st of December the Chilean
civil tribunals were to bo installed in
Luna and Callao. A number of Pe
ruvians have been appointed justices
of the peace.
Several young men of good stand
ing in Lima have been arrested for
complicity in the burglary of the
house of Honor Loiua Feircyros , con-
aul general of Bnuil , in id which ro >
suited in that gentleman's dying from
the wounds then received.
Bounties are being paid in Chili to

About 11 o'clock yesterday forenoon
attention was drawn to the inner
office of the postoflice by loud shrieks
from a woman. Two or three moil
rushed in nnd discovered George Trav
erse , the husband of the postmistress ,
in the act of plunging a knife
into his wife's bosom. Traverse was
seized and as thin was done he made a
wicked clash at his throat with the
knife , cutting a gash about two inches
long. Mra. Traverse was found to
have been stabbed five times , of
which one cut in the left breast was
the most severe. She was iminodi
ately rendered surgical aid , and it is
not thought the wounds are fatal.
Traverse did not inflict norious injury
on himself when he cut his throat.
Ho was taken in charge by the offi
cers , and afterwards taken to Lincoln.
The cause of the trouble is supposed
to have been jealousy. Traverse loft
his family some years ago and returned
recently. During his absence Mrs.
Trnvorso was appointed postmistress ,
which office she now holds. Traverse
In believed to bo entirely in fault , and
groundlessly jcaloim.

I have just received the following

orders to send two now ex
pcditioiiH from Yakutska in search of
the shipwrecked crew , and has
directed that every available means be
employed to find boat No 2 , AH has
already btien told , Melville and ten
men wore mot by three Yakuts , The
Yakuts are good-naturod nonuds ,
very skillful in caring for disorders
and maladies caused by cold , The
party eould not have fallen into bo.ttor
hands. It must be remembered , however -
over , that from Barchot , where they
were discovered , to Yukutska , the
distance is 2,000 versts , or 1-100 ,
mtlcs , with no regular means of trans
portation oast. Twenty days are re
quired to cet there , but , as those who
went to the rescue started thioudays
ago the time necessary to find the
party and hring them back to Yakuts-
ka will bo about two .months. Nor
should it bo foigotten that although
the whereabouts of Melville and his
party is pretty well known , that of Do
Long , who scut forward Nindeman
and Noraiout of his party of thirteen ,
is not known and that for the succor
ing oxpudithu to reach him will take
u long time over a country wliero
there are no roads , Iho distance )
from Yikutska to Irkutska is 2,818
vorsts , or 1,900 miles , with
hampered post , which will re
quire at least twelve days
to transport twenty-four persons.
The government of Yakutska sent
Tehenmiefl ( not General Tchernaielf )
ot Soroa , who will receive the instruc
tions of the government and orders
for fresh expeditions in eight days by
courier extraordinary , traveling 250
a day. There will bo no further

us the telegraph wire does not extend

possible , although they will proba

and New York by May. " This is all

calling upon the government toroloato
the suspects hold under the
coercion act , adopted by the corpora
tion of Cork and forwarded to over
throe bundled public bodies , hud been
adopted and returned by only seven

to bo an indication that the eonserra-
tive element in Ireland was altogether
on the side of the government , nnd
opposed to the illegal and denounced
policy adopted by the laud leagues.
The Cork corporation is composed al
most wholly of men , who were advo

distrust the "no rent' ' policy advoca
ted by Parncll and * his co-agitators ,

Jack was thu stronger tighter. He
stopped Tijdim's rusliL-Hnt every point ,
catching him by the air , throat and
nose , and diwliitii. ' him on the lloor of
the pit. Although Tihbjn was u game
dog ho had no cliaucu. Finally Jack
caught Tilden's under jaw in his mouth
and crushed it , Tildon howling
with pain nnd angur. Jack got n hold
on Tildon'a throat and dragged him
around the pit. When Tildon got on
bin feet it was evident that his spine
wan injured. An hour and a quarter
had paano'l. Tildon wan tryingto stand
up in thu bloody pit , while Jack
us trying 'to get a hold , snapping at
his lugs a'.id pawn. Finally he caught
Tildon auaiu by the throat , and Til
don whimpered with pain. It looked
an if Tilduii was dying , and the crowd
became clamorous that ho should be
takun out of the pit , when
suddenly the old dog snapped at
Jack's nose and clinching her teeth
held on for fully litteon minutes while
Jack struL'glod desperately to got
away. As soon UH ho
loose Jack sprang at Tildon
and drugged him about the
pit. At the end of ono hour and forty
minutes the do'.i ; were parted and
hpoiiLrrd. It was Tilden's ' time to
come to the scratch. Hn tried to g
across thu pit , but reaching the middle
fell , showing that ho was
game but weak from thu
loss of blond and severe
pain and punishment. The referee
then decided- that Jack had won the
light. TitrJtt. two houm and three
minutes : ' Good judges consider tins
ono of the best contested dog fights
that ever took place in this country ,
It is expected that Tildon will die.

WAKIIINOTON , December 23. In
conversation with a representative o
the National Associated Press , a prom
inent western republican , a former
member of 'conuress and a warm sup
porter of Gurliuld , took occasion U
commend the manner in which 1'jvsi
dent Arthur , as ho tunned it , has ad
ministered uiion the estate of the Into
president. Not an appointment , said
he , where ho was satisfied it hail been
promised by President Garliold had
been refused , although some of thu in
dividual were personally obnoxiouH.
Kvery wish of his prodocoaborlwsbcm
fulfilled , and his treatment of John
Slioiman , continued the speaker , has
buen most magnanimous , notwith
standing he was removed from ilu
colloctornhip by Shurman nnd even ef
forts made to smirch his character 't <
accomplish that end. Jtucunt aulH
an < l utterances of President Arthur
which have come to my Knowledge
convince mo that he recognises Sher
man as a single republican senator
from the giv.it republican ntato ,
Surely a ni'in who can so govern his
own fedings is lit to govern u nation.
