GENERAL FOREIGN MEWS. A KKKNCU MUUDKU CASE. YEHHAILLKS , August 13 The court hero has sentenced to death Fcnayron , a retired apothecary , who murdered his wife's lover , another apothecary , named Aubort , at Chaton. Fonay- roil's wife , at her husband's instiga tion , inveigled Aubert to visit her on the night of the murder. Ho was sentenced to penal servitude , for life , and Fonayron's brother L'icieii , who aided him in the crime , to BOVOU years servitude. The trial oxoited extra ordinary interest , as the public prose cution did not press for the extreme penalty in event of the jury consider ing that Fonayron was actuated solely by jealousy. It appears the jury must have adopted the views favored by the prDBCcution , namely : that Aubort was murdered to prevent his divulging the guilt of Fonayron in lomocasoof poisoning or felonious use if drugs' LAND LEAGUE TALK.

SIDNKY , Nob. , August 12-Sidney has assumed immense proportions since last I visited this section , nnd it surprised mo greatly to note the progress and advancement of this beautiful little town , situated 4,800 feet above the level of the son , its cli mate ia nature'a snreotost , and in point of strength and invigoration it can not bu excelled. Many tourists and invalids make this n special stop ping place to enjoy the luxurious at mosphere and drink the "aqua pure" from the many valuable springs in this vicinity. While but ajahort time | ago it was the centre of an Indian country where daily raids were made upon the settlement , to-day it stands pre-eminent among the towns on the U. P , , and its business , men hnvo nssidtously labored to give the city every in I dication ' of a promising future. They again the bad element that forniorl- constituted the major portion of socie ty and did so much toward deterioration tion hn been thoroughly stamped , so that the reputation of Sidney ai a model town ia nustainod. Nowhere can be found better or more enter prising people , ready to do anything for the promotion of industry than those of western Nebraska. The Plaindoalor-Tolejjraph , pub lished here , is a spicy journal , ably managed by Win. Strute and edited byV. . M t ) < l"X , a young journalist from Now York.

The regimental band , consisting of thirty pieces , will arrive hero next week from FortLaramio and take its station at those barracks. This makes quito an acquisition to Sidney and a long neodeil necessity. About 815,000 has been appropriated by the dopartmJit ; commander for the enlargement of the post and building will begin in n short time. Another company of cavalry is expected soon , making this a five com pany post. It is conceded that Sid ney barracks are the prettiest in the department and Col. Coniptou , to gether with his subordinate ollicors , deserve credit for its appearance. THK OATTLK INIT.UEHTH i are no small item to Sidney , and are largely increasing , many of the cattle men having added largo herds to their present stock. The "round-ups" are over and the shipping season begun , Beeves nro fat and hearty and the prices thuy bring in Chicago are an evidence of this fact. Among the wealthy stock men can bu mentioned D.

HIIIll'.l' 11AIBINO is also becoming u profitable business , and Pole crunk is flocked with many very largo herds. The wool has sold nt good prices , and sheep owners are encouraged nt their future prospects. Over 70,000 head have already been contracted for delivery next month.

Ho said the two hist crews from America the Cornells and Showoo- oniottoss had ] proved very ungentlemanly - gentlemanly in their conduct , and it was the determination to guard against giving another crow an oppor tunity to display their vulgarity , which prevented their acceptance of the llillsdales challenges.

The editor of The Gazette , lliohard Uinton , WAS in charge of compilation of documents for distribution through the republican national campaign com- inittoo of 1880 , under the supervision of Senator Dorsey. In his article ho says ho had in his possession a largo number of letters from various sources , ono of which ho selected for publica tion. The following is the letter : NEVA YORK , July 7 , 1881. DI-.AU GKNKHAL : Col. Gco. Bliss called on mo recently and introduced a Mr , Knox , who said ho was n class mate of yours at Williams college , and further stated * that ho was about leaving for Mentor to visit you at your request , to dis cuss the question of the proper net-son to place in your cabinet from Now York. It cannot bo possible you would call upon Mr. Bliss , much less upon Mr. Knox , to give advice re specting so important a question to1- you and to the people of this state. Both of those gentlemen may bo hon est , true and respectable. So far as I know they nro , but Bliss and Knox do jj | not represent the people , or leaders of jj } the people of Now York , no moro than f i I represent the king of Slum. All 3 ! ouch advice aa this is pretentious 5 ( V ; . idiocy , and if you are occupying your j * ' ) time in listening to men like those , I 3-1 wish to express in the most emphatic 'i M ' wny that you and your administration V ? ' , < will prove n lamentable failure. You. < ! should take the bit in your tooth and t- { ] decide for yourself what you want in \ | your cabinet. What do you want of 'f the advice of man , every ono of whom > 5 has an axe to grind and a schema to , i | push ? If ou want advice in Now ' < t ] York , who don't you send for Conk- i ling or Arthur , two men who elected i ] you with the uid of Grant ! Why ( ? - don't ' you consult with somebody who i A has the status of name and n following t | in Now York ? Now I toll you and ' I toll you without a grain of selfish ness that you cannot afford to have any friction arise between yourself * r and Conkling and General Arthur. f * ! . Whenever you determine to assail \ j , thcan'mon you drive the last nail in your political coffin. You cannot ignore them to make peace with Curtis , Wayne MaoYoagh and others of their class. You cannot disband an army to got recruits. Wo now have a great , well organized , active and aggressive army. If you want to muster out that army in order to pick up the sneaks , bummers nnJ deserters in the rear , go ahead , and I predict you will laud in a sur rendered camp. I am tired of thin blathering talk about MaoVoagh to go into the cabinet from Pennsyl vania and James from New York. Such a detestable sot should bosmokod out at once , and you ought to do It in some public way. Aa I have re- poat.odly urged upon you , there is but ono appointment you ought to make from No\v York , and that ia Chief Judge Folgor , to bo secretary of the treasury. You don't ' need any Bliss or Knox to ascertain or to prove his character , capacity and standing in New York. Running for chief judge on the same ticket with you , he re ceived more than double the majority you didj Now take my advice about this , and I ask you to do that because you know I have no earthly interest except to see a successful and honora ble administration , and my advice Is this : When you got ready to select a citizen of Now York for your cabi net , send for Senator Conkling , Gon. Arthur , Gov. Cornell. J , D. Warren of Buffalo , ox-Gov. Morgan and Thomas 0. Platt , nnd men of that class , and cot ' their best judgment. Bliss and Knox ! What nonsense , I beg you not to permit Knox to run around this state inquiring about men fittest for the cabinet and pretending to repre sent you. By aotH of this kind you injure yourself and cost an unpardan- able reflection upon men who can and ought to bo the best judges , and who represent the republicans of this state. I don't want to bo put in the position of being obliged to lecture the presi- dont-tjlect , and especially in regard to the formation of his cabinet. You have repeatedly urged me to toll you whenever I should think you were going wrong. I write you when I think you are about to make a mistake , and I hav& not and shall not mince words in pointing out your errors. You drop all this stuff about Oonkling. Ho don't want to fight you or any one else , Ho ia not prancing around with a chip on his shoulder , challenging all mankind to battle , All Conkling wants and all Arthur desires , is n fair show and an honest deal. Thoco two men , with their friends , represent the in telligent , the progressive and aggres sive elements of New York republic anism , They possess the wisdom , force and courage that the people of this country and nil countries always udmire. You know my inter ests and purposes are solely to BOO the successful consummation of our cront work , I have presented to you some fioron facts. I sincerely hope you will give them your candii and careful attention. Your friend , ( Signed ) S. W. DoBSEV. To Gon. Jas , A. Garfield.
