The Steamship Rugia Afire in New Orleans, May 13.—There has been a small race war in prograi at Gretna, opposite this city, since Tuesday evening, on which date two white*, R. Ran and Hillary Robei t-i were stabbed and a numbew ol whites and blacks mora or lea injured with pistols and knives in a light between members of a white fire company and a number of negroes. Friday the negroes had a picnic and trouble was expected. A large force of police was sent over from this city and no trouble occurred. Early Sunday morning it was seen from this side that the adored engine company's house was burning, and a large number of people went across by ferry. They were met by the Gretna military and escorted to the Are. By this time th' colored military company's building next to the engine house was burning. Whites armed with shotguns and rifles congregated and kept the negroes way. The only fire engine in the place broke down, and the fire did not stop until there was nothing left of the two buildings to burn. Then armed squads scattered through the town, entering negro cabins ostensibly in search of arms. The whites seemed greatly alarmed, fearing a negro uprising, as the blacks number five to the whites' one. The negroes were, however, even more terrified than the whites, and they mostly retired to then- dwellings. At 4 a. m. the Baptist (colored) church and four or five houses adjoining it were destroyed by fire. The negroes, especially the women and children, began to flee from the place as rapidly as possible, and the ferry to this city wns crowded with them and their baggage. New Orleans.

In 1840 he was again elected to the state senate. He was a delegate to the convention which nominated Gen. Cass for president In 1853 President Pierce appointed him United States district attorney for the Northern district of New York, but he declined the honor. In 1863 he was elected justice of the supreme court in the Fifth judicial district. He was twice appointed surrogate of Oneida county, and held many positions of honor and trust in this community. He was the senior member and president of the board of trustees of Hamilton college and vice president of the American Colonization society, with headquarters at Washington. He was always a Democrat and was a leader and power in the councils of his party when in his prime. He was the last member of the famous "Albany Regency," which for many years controlled the policy of this state. He was a resident of Rome almost continuously from 1819 till his death. Cronin Tels the Cause of His Boston, May 13.—Broker John C. Adams, who has been missing since Ap.-i! 23, suddenly put in an appearance at the Re vere house and entered the public parlor, wh.ch was occupied by two other gentlemen. He took a seat at the opposite end of the room from where the others were sitting, deliberately took a revolver from bis pocket, placed the muzzle at bis right temple, and sent a bullet into hi* brain.

Oh, howlong you had that boy in your prayers. He does not know how many sleepless nights you have spent over him. He does not understand how many tears you have shed for his waywardness. Oh, it is hard, after you have toiled for a child, and given him every advantage and every kindness, to have him pay you back in ingratitude.

Striking Miners Killed. ally Rotting Away New York, May 13.—Announcement of the death of Father Damien, the heroic priest who sacrificed his life in the leper settlement at Molokai, in the Sandwich Islands, has excited a new popular interest in that olass of unfortunates who are the outcasts of humanity by reason of their terrible physical affliction*. Now and then isolated cases of leprosy appear in the United States which have had their origin in other countries. Toronto, May 18i— Dr. Cronin, the missing Chicago Irish Nationalist, is still in town. He left here on Friday evening, but returned on Saturday night He had a long talk with C. T. Long, his former Chicago friend, and explained that he left town because he thought officers were after him. He did not go to New York because he was too well known there. closures.

On the night of May 8 the ootton which Was stowed in her afterhold took fire from spontaneous combustion, and in spite of the effort* made to subdue the flames the fir* spread rapidly. When the iron bulkhead doors were opened the heat was intense, and many of the passengers were scorched. The cotton bales stowed around the passengers' baggage room ignited, and the flames ware fed by oasks of lard near by. The cabins were flooded with water. and the passengers were compelled to remain on deck forty-eight hours. Five hours before the flames w«r* extinguished everything was put in readiness to take to the boats and leave the vessel to her fate. Certain mea, passengers and members of the crew, made an attempt to desert the ship prematurely, but the captain prevented them from doing so by pointing his revolver at them and declaring that he would kill the first man who left the ship until he gave the order. Finally ail hope of saving the ship was abandoned, and the order was given to lower the boats, when the idea occurred to the captain to try steam Instead of water. The order to lower the boats was countermanded, and volumes of Bteam were turned into the fire stricken portion of the ship, with the result of extinguishing the flames and assuring the safety of all on board. One hundred and thirty burning bales of cotton were thrown overboard. When the confidence of the passengers in their safety was restored they presented the captain and crew with an t-dd'-ees expressing their thankfulness and admiration of the bravery of the officers and men, and also distributed among them gifts in remembrance of the perilous experiences through which they had passed. After hu disappearance it was believed that he hud committed . uiciJe because of businjss reverses, those who were in a position to know liis financial standing denied that he was in such desperate straits. Fonnil Everywhere tn Modern Life. Brooklyn, May 10.—The Rev. T. De Witt Talmage, D. D., preached at the Tabornaele today to a vast congregation, who sang with grand effect the hymn beginning: It is known that Mr. Adams and his wife have not lived happily toge her, and to many minds that is a sufficient ex; lunation of the suicide. Mrs. Adams, who is a woman of striking beauty, is a Jewess, and Mr. Adams was a Christian. Before the marri lge was solemnized it was reported that the couple differed concerning the proper person to perform the ceremony. It is known that a little over three years ago cards announcing the approaching nuptials were sent out by Mrs. Adams' parents. These cards implied that the ceremony was to be in accordance with the Jewisli ritual. My soul, be on thy guard; Ten thousand foes arise, And hosts of sin are pressing hard Mr. Long met the doctor by appointment in the Rossin house, and after much persuasion the latter consented to tell his story. To draw thee from the skies. His subject was "A Poisoned Dinner," and his text II Kings Iv, 40: "So they poured out for the men to eat. And it came to pass, as they were eating of the pottage, that they :ried out, and said, O thou man of God, there Is death in the pot. And they could not eat thereof." At present there are two victims of this dread disease in New York. These cases are known to only a few medical men and the near relatives of one unfortunate who belongs to a well known family in this city. The latter is said to be secreted somewhere in ForJbam, and nobody who lives near the pretty little villa has any idea that it is a living tomb. "Whilo I lived in St. Louis," he said, "1 promptly identified myself with the Irish cause, then disturbing the public. I soon found that the great Irish movement was to be centered either at Chicago or New York, and after consulting my intimate friends, among whom was Dr. O'Reilly, I made up my mind to go to Chicago. I did so, armed with letters of introduction, and soon found myself prominent in Irish as well as other circles." HARTMAN'S PURCHASE, Elisha had gone down to lecture to the •tudents In the theological seminary at Gilgal. He found the students very hungry, as (tudents are apt to be. It is very seldom the world makes large provision for those who give themselves to intellectual toil. In order that these students may be prepared to hear what Elisha says, he first feeds their hunger. He knew very well it is useless to talk, to preach, to lecture, to argue with hungry men. He Gets Control of the Marginal Beaver Her hair gray; it had turned gray In sorrow. Those eyes had wept floods of tears over his wandering. That still white hand had done him many a kindness and had written him many a loving Invitation and good counsel. He had broken her old heart. He came into the room and threw himself on the casket and he sobbed outright: "Mother, mother!" But those lip* that had kisnd him In infancy and uttered so many kind words spake not; they were sealed. Rather than have such a memory come on my soul I would prefer to have roll over on me the Alps and the Himalayas. Pittsburg, May 13.—Henry Hartman, a prominent steel manufacturer of this city, has purchased from the Eoonomltes their Marginal Beaver Falls railroad, together with all of the franchises, real estate, etc., belonging to it The new road has been incorporated with the Rochester, Beaver Palls and Western railroad, and will be immediately extended to Wurtemburg, on the Pltteburg and Western railway, thereby securing a connection with the Baltimore and Ohio. This road will pass through and develop the most extensive building and lime stone quarries in the state. Immense deposits of coal, fire clay, etc.. also lie along the route. -Mr. Hartman also purchased from the Economltes all of their extensive rights in and aiong the Beaver river, over twelve miles in extent. Both the old slate dams will be rebuilt, increasing the water power almost beyond limit Already a number of large manufacturers have determined on .locating their worfl along the Beaver river on the line of the new railroad. The realty, franchises, etc., acquired by Mr. Hartman aggregate $1,000,000. Falls Qallroad. It is also knot"* that Mr. Adann strenuously objected tfi being married by a Jewish rabbi, and carried his objections to such a point that he did not appjsr at the date set for the marriage. His non-appearance naturally increased the ill feeling, but the matter was amicably sett.ed, a..d a justice of the peace perfouned ihe ceremony. His marriage was distasteful to his family, and great pressure has been brought to bear upon the husband to secure a divorce. The other leper may be called Carlos Jorge Saguan. He is only 20 years old, and a native of the largest seaport of one of the South American republics, where his family t which is one of cons.derabla prominence, now resides. Last July the..young man was brought here for treatment, and after living for a while on Fifteenth street was removed in December last to tho German hospital at Seventy-seventh street and Fourth avenue. Ho is now a private patient in that institution. Within the past few days it was found necessary to perform a surgical operation on him, for he is literally rotting away. Literally Hotting Away. The Charleston's Trial Trip a Failure. Washington, May 13.—The following dispatch was received by Secretary Tracy: The Doctor Called the Turn. Ho then went on to say that he soon discovered that the large sums of money being received by certain persons for the Irish cause were not handled properly, and that not more than three-fourths of it ever reached Ireland. Santa Barbara, Cal., Uay IS. Secretary of Navy, Washington: So Elisha, recognizing this common sens principlo, which every Christian ought U recognize, sends servants out to get food for these hungry students. Tbey pick up some good, healthful herbs, but they happen to pick up also some coloqulntida, a bitter, poisonous, deathful herb. They bring all these herbs, they put them into the boiling pot, they stir them up, and then a portion of this food is brought to the students and their professors. Seated at the table, One of the hungry students begins immediately to eat, and he happens to get hold of Bome of the coloqulntida. He knew it by the taste. He cries out: "Poison, poison! O thou man of God, there is death in the pot!" Consternation is thrown over the whole group. What a fortunate thing it wa» that this student so early found the coloqulntida in the mixture at the table! You will by reference find the story is precisely as I have mentioned it. Trial of Charleston a failure owing to starboard engine slides heating. No trouble with port engine. Average revolutions for fifteen minutes, 107; maximum horse power, 6,500; speed, 18D4 knots. At speeds up to 80 revolutions, vacuum 127 inches. Vacuum decreased as speed increased, falling at highest speed to Si Inches Boiler supplied steam freely. "I know," he stated, "that at least $86,000 were gobbled up by certain people in Chicago, and when I began to "call the turn" on them they tried to scare me off. Parties in this city tried to bribe me, and that would not work. Their next move was to introduce me to Le Caron under the name of Beach, in order that he might pump me and damage me in any way that he could. Beach waa introduced to me by a reporter named ConmWl, a man whom I had always considered my friend, but since the recent developments in The London Times case I know he waa against me and that Le Caron was introduced to me for no good purpose. Mr. and Mrs. A lams frequently quarreled over money matters, but their most serious disagreements were upon religious matters. Mrs. Adam* importuned her husband to consent to a mair.ate according to the Jewish rite, but he wou.d not yield. She believed that the r union was il egul u .less solemnized according to the Hebrew custom. His wife's entreaties, bis family estrangement and his business troubles were mote than Adams could eudure, and he aldose suicide as the best means of escaj e. But while sometimes there are sons who turn out very badly coming from good homes, I want to tell you for your encouragement it isa great exception. Yet an unhappy and undisciplined home is the poisonous caldron from which a vast multitude drink their death. Secretary Tracy saiid in explanation of this report that the announcement that the trial was a "failure" was perhaps susceptible of wrong interpretation. It was a failure owing to certain conditions, which could, no doubt, be remedied easily. Behhah, Commodore. To avoid notoriety, which would naturally be attached to a case so rare in this country, Saguan is registered at the hospital as suffering with "perforating ulcers of the feet" Death, however, will soon relieve him from his terrible sufferings, aud the autopsy which will then be made will render further secrecy in the matter useless. II. I remark that another caldron of iniquity is an indolent life. All the rail trains down the Hudson river yesterday, all the rail trains on the Pennsylvania route, all the trains on tho Long Island road brought to these cities young men to begin commercial life. Some of them are here this morning, I doubt not. Do you know what one of your great temptations is going to bet It is the example of indolent people in our cities. They are la all our cities. They dress better than soots who are Industrious. They have nrnsss to all places of amusement—plenty of monqy, and yet idle. They hang around our great hotels —the Fifth Avenue, the Windsor, the Branswick, the Stuyvesant, the Gllsev house—all our beautiful hotels, you find them aroumir there any day—men who do nothing, new earn anything, yet well dressed, having plenty. Why should I walk! Why should you work! Why drudge and toil in bank and shop and office, or on the scaffolding, or by the anvil, when these men get along so well and do not work! Arrested for a Dastardly Crime. Heroism and Love. It drain Says His Say. Berlin, May 18. —The entire military garrison of Dusseldorf is now In the district disturbed by the miners' strikes. The rioters set fire to an oil factory at Lierenfeld, causing the complete destruction of the works. The miners at Muelhern and Dulsburg have joined the strikers, and the strike is still spreading. The pitmen at Schleswig attacked their foremen with daggers and drove them from the works. The military was sent for. The rioters separated into two bodies and took refuge behind a railway embankment, where they booted and jeered at the troops. The commander of the soldiers thrice demanded that the rioters disperse, and upon their third refusal ordered his men to Are. The orfter was obeyed and six persons were killed, including a child 4 years of age, and a woman was wounded. The rioters then dispersed. The first consignment of coal from Belgium , has arrived in the disturbed district There was no disorder in consequence of its arrival, as the whole region bristles with bayonets. The mine owners held a meeting at Essen, which was also attended by government officials, and passed a resolution to increase the wages of the miners to the extent of their demands, Lut firmly refused to concede the demand of eight hours per day. Desperate Strikers. Canton, 0., May 18,—Tom Sadler, a convict paroled from the Ohio penitentiary on the charge of attempting to wreck the Vestibule train on the Pittsburg, Fort Wayne and Chicago railroad near this place, has bPe. arrested. Rails and ties were strapped to ihe track, but were discovered by farmers in time to prevent a collision. Another man was arrested, whose namo is withheld for fear that its publication would give warning to others whom the officers hope to reach. Sadler was sent to the penitentiary for complicity in a murder here. Those who have come in contact with the patient have been oharmed by his courteous manners and bravery under acute sufferings alone and in a strange land. In the ten months he has been ill New York liejias acquired an excellent knowledge of English. As bis stiffened hands prevent him from writing he corresponds with his family by using a typewriter, on which he painfully strikes out letter after letter, sending messages of love and encouraging reports about himself, while the tears he cannot keep back course down bis cheeks as the pain racks bim.

Blanc, a chemist in the employ of the Diehl Fireworks company, shot his wife and 7-year-old daughter and then fired a bullet into his own head. Blanc is an Alsatian, who came to this city about a year ago. Ho married a daughter of J. C. Hanover, the real estate agent, a few months since, and took apartments in the Ko nil north building, No. 197 West Seventh street, where the shooting took place. Mrs. Blanc, at the time of her marriage, was a grass widow with a 12-year-old daughter. Blanc was a widower with one child, a little girl named F.ora. He was jealous of his wife, and suspected her of being criminally intimate with other men. I am feeling fairly well. 1 see by some of the papers that John L. looks well.

Well, in our day there are great caldrons of sin and death. Coloqulntida of mighty temptation is pressed into it. Some dip it out, and taste, and reject it and live. Others dip it out, taste it, keep on and (He. And it is the business of every minister of religion and every man who wishes well to the human race, and who wants to keep the world back from its follies and its sufferings, to cry out: "Beware! poison, poisonl Look out for this caldron!

How the Victim Appears.' The Supreme Court's Last Business. W ashinqton, May 18.—The supreme court of the United States held its final session prior to ihe summer recess today. A number of important decisions were rendered, among them the decision in the cas] brought to test the constitutionality of the Scott Chinese exclusion law, the celebrated Myra Clark Qaines suit, involving a claim to several millions of dollars' worth of property in New Orleans, two'West Virginia cases involving the responsibility for acts done during the war, and a contempt case growing out of the Sharon will suit in California. Saguan is of medium height and now weighs about 125 pounds. The eyebrows are sparse. There are no bald spots on his head, his face looks puffed, the ears are purplish red, hard and project somewhat forward; the lips are irregularly thickened and the nose swelled out on the left side. On the upper part of the right chest, an inch below the collar bone; is a circular scar, which be attributes to a blister, but which was probably an ulcer, similar to those he has now on his feet. All over the chest, and more marked on the sides, are fine eruptions, which look like the effects of prickly heat, and on the back are numerous postules. Both arms are scarred by setons, which were applied five years ago. On the outsidj of both elbows are scaly, horny eruptions, and the same is found on the index fingers and thumbs. "The lady who accompanied me to Hamilton was quite unknown, as was also the gentleman, until I met them on the train between Ottaava and Toronto. Neither of them knew who I wai until you met me Friday morning. Tliey happened to be going to Buffalo on the train I took out of Toronto, and I left them at Hamilton." Hie enators Getting Drunk, Washington, May 13.—The Post yesterday, commenting on the wretched work of the Washington base!.all club, says: On the mcrnlng of the last Boston game three of the men, in compa: y with some of the Boston men, were nearly drunk in a well known Daloou in this city, and on a number of occasions since the season opened members of the team have been seen in a drunken condition, and it is a matter of common talk that In a certain resort here three or four members of the team can be found nightly drinking and carousing.  Sin has done an awful work in our world. It has gone out through all the ages, it has mixed up a great caldron of trouble and suffering and pain, and the whole race is poisone—poisoned in body, poisoned In mind, poisoned in souL But blessed be God that the Gospel of Jesus Christ is the antidote, and where there was sin there shall be pardon, and where there was suffering there shall be comfort, and where there was death there shall bo life. Some of them hang around the city halls of our great cities, toothpick in their mouth, waiting for some crumb to fall from the office holder's table. Some of them hang around the city hall for the city van bringing criminals from the station houses. They stand there and gloat over it—really enjoy the disgrace and suffering of thoee poor creatures as they get out of the city van and go into the courts. TUB FOUR WAYS OF UONIT GETTING. Where do they get their money! That is what you ask. That is what I ask. Only four ways of getting money—only four: By Inheritance, by earning it, by begging it, by stealing it; and there are a vast multitude among us who get their living by inheritance, nor by earning it, nor by begging it I do not like to take the responsibility of saying how they get it. Trial of the Drlggs-Sctiroeder Gun, Annapolis, Md., May 18.—The trial of the the Driggs-Schroeder rapid fire, 6 pounder guu has taken place. Lieut. Driggs, the inventor, and the naval attaches of the German and Japanese legation* at Washington were present. Nineteen shots were fired in one minute and sixty rounds were fired in four minutes and twenty seconds. The range will be about tho same as the Hotchkiss 6 pounder. The gun loads with fixed ammunition, the powder and shell being loaded in one motion. The weight of the shell is six pounds. When asked what move he intended makiag next Dr. Cronin stated that he would go to France as soon as possible. "I left some important documents behind in Chicago," he said, "and I only hope that I can go lo a country where I will be safe." Some time ago, you will remember, I persuaded you of the importance of being charitable in judgment of others. At the same time I said to you briefly what this morning I wish to say with great emphasis, that while we sympathise with the sinner we must denounce the sin, that while we pity the unfortunate we must be vehement against transgression. Sin is a jagged thing that needs to be roughly handled. You have ao right to garland It with One phrases or lustrous rhetoric. You cannot catch a buffalo with a silken lasso. To Save His Partner. Boston, May 1&—S. F. Woodman, ot Hatch & Woodman, insurance agents, this city, has started for Burlington, Colo., to assist his partner, Mr. Hatch, who is under arrest there charged with the murder of an uncle. Mr. Woodman says there is no doubt that Mr. Hatch is the victim of false swearing and circumstantial evidence. He was on friendly terms with his uncle, an i intended to assist him in securing title to some land. Mr. Hatch was on a trip for his wife's health when arrested. He DVllX Make Some Disclosures. "1 will make some disclosures soon that will Qpen the eyes of the public generally and make the hair stand on the heads of several Chicago and New Tork gentlemen. The Conklins have made fools of themselves over the whole matter. According to the instructions I left with them they should not have opened their mouths until I was tafely out of the country, but it is the same old story—tell a woman anything and you are sure to get the worst of it" Buffalo, May 18.—No tidings have yet been received from Professor J. H. Frawley, the missing principal of the American Business college of this city, whose mysterious disappearance was reported a week ago. Miss Sarah Frawley, his cousin, whom he accompanied to Rochester a few days before he was missing, says that he left that city for Boston, where he hoped to secure money to buy a controlling interest in the college, and that he was very hopeful aud in excellent spirits. VVliere Is Professor Frawley? London, May 13.—At S o'clock yesterday a squad of police halted in front of the Field club, in Park place, Bt James' street, and rang for admittance. The door was opened by a servant, when the officers rushed in and discovered twenty-one persons playing baccarat for high stakes. Among the playera were three English and several French and Belgian noblemen. These gentlemen, with their companions, were placed in cabs and taken to the Vine street station, where they were released on bail about noon in the sum of £100. The police also seized about £5,000 in cash which was exposed on the gaming tables. Simultaneously with this raid another squad of police effected an entrance to the Adelphi club, where they interrupted several games in full blast and inarched about forty barristers, solicitors, professional sporting men, etc., to the Bow street station. These men being of lower rank than their fellow offenders at the Field club, did not fare so well, as bail was refused in a majority of cases. The Earl of Dudley, the Earl of Poulett, Lord Lurgan and Baron Ferraro were among those arrested at the Field club. Club Men Arrested. Consuming His Tissues. There is absolutely no sensation on the outside surface of the left arm and on some parts of his left arm and also on the body. When cut, burned or pricked in these places he is not aware of it. The ulcers on the soles of his feet aro rapidly eating away the tissues, and pieces of bone come out with the copious discharge from the ulcers. These discharges are rapidly draining his strength, despite careful nursing and plenty of good food which he receives. Washington, May 13.—A solicitor general of the department of justice will be appointed this week. The resignation of Judge Jenks has been accepted, to take place on the 15th inst. Attorney General Miller is authority for the statement that an appointment will be made on or before that data The office is one of the best so far as dignity and pay are concerned. The incumbent has charge of the government's business before the New York supreme court, and draws a salary of (7,000 a year. A Fine Plum for Somebody. Now, these men are a constant temptation. Why should I toil and wear myself out ia the bank, or the office, or the store, or tin* shop or the factory! These men have nothing to do. They get along a great deal better. And that is the temptation under which a great many young men fall. They begin to consort with these men, these idlers, and they go down the same awful steeps. The number of men in our cities who are trying to got their living by thalr wits and by sleight of hand is all the time increasing. A New York merchant saw a young man, oue of his clerks, in half disguise, going into a very low place of amusement. The merchant said to himself: "I must look out for that clerk; he is going in bad company and going in bad places; I must look out for him." A few months passed on, and one morning the merchant entered his store, and this clerk of whom I have been speaking came up in assumed consternation and said| "Oh, sir, the store has been on fire; 1 have put out the fire, but there -are a great many goods lost; we have had a great crowd of people coming and going." Then the merchant took the clerk by the collar and said; "I have had enough of this; you cannot deceive me; where are those goods that yon stolef The young man instantly ronft—inl his villainy. A group of emigrants settle in a wild region. The next day a wild beast comes down from the mountain and carries off one of the children. The next day a wild beast comes down from the mountain and carries off another child. Forthwith all the neighbors band together, and they go out with torch in one hand and gun in the other to hunt these monsters down, to find their hiding place, to light up and ransack the caverns, and to destroy the invaders of their houses. So we want now not merely to talk about the sins and the follies of the world; we want to go liehind them, back of them. Down into the caverns where they hide we need to go with the torch of God's Word In one hand and the sword of God's eternal Spirit in the other to hunt out and slay these Iniquities in their hiding places.
