The visit of Dallas Sauilent of Philadelphia to this city aain revives the report of the probable retirement of First Assistant Postmaster-General Hays. The work of the first assistant ef the department has increased over a hundred fold since the advent of the new administration and it is next to impos sible for a man in Hay's delicate state of -health to manage it successfully or as promptly as is expected. He is compelled "to leave his office frequently After working two or three hours and seek the rest his health requires. His retirment will neces sitr.te a complete reorganization of the first assistants department and the following changes, it is reported at the department will transpire on the 1st of July.

The Indian ex liiiiitat the New Orleans exhibition will jir bably be presented to the French gov- anient, as the representatives of that li ; ion have indicated a desire to secure a collection which exhibits the progress made by Indian tribes toward civilization. The entire government exhibit has now been transported to this city, 1309 cases being, required for the purpose. Part of the ex hibition will probably be turned over to the Smithsonian institution for permanent exhibition. JUDGE LAWTON's APPOINTMENT. San Francisco, June 21. Surprises have followed so fast since President Cleveland began to fill federal offices in California that the totally unlooked for appointment of Judge Israel Lawtou to the supe rill ten -dency of the mint was received with apathy J more unexpected event, however, could hardly have occured, as Judge Lawton was never heard of here in connection with the mint until news that he was made ruler of it arrived. So certain did Mr. Hendricks' apuointinent as superintendent of the mint appear that he was besieged by applicants for places, He was even invited by a prom inent republican office holder to inspect his future department, and, it is said, twice made a tour of the mint, with a view of ob taining a clear idea of his prospective duties Among the. applicants that found favor with Mr. Hendricks, and were to have been in stalled under his patronage for the next four years, was Joe Van Prague, who is said to have been promised the appointment of custodian of coins. A resident of Plu mas county, and a friend of Senator Kellogi felt sis sure Mr. Hendricks would be tin next superintendent and he himself an em ployee thereof, that he actually settled up his affairs iu Piumas county and moved to this city to await the arrival of Mr. Hen dricks' commission. Vlen such confidence was reposed in the candidacy of the vice president's nephew, the effect of his rejec tion must have besn stunning to politicians. THE CANADIAN PACIFIC. San Francisco, June 21. Speaking of the near completion of the Canadian Pacific railroad, the Call says: 'It proposes to cary emigrants from Halifax on the Atlan tic, to Port Moody on the Pacific, for $15. This is the lowest emmigrant transcontinen tal rate ever offered. Further, it has fixed 25 as immigrant ate from Liverpool to the Pacific ocean. No other overland route and ocean line ever combined to carry passen gers for this sum from Europe i.cross tin American continent. Little has been said of the Canadian P.eilie in America, but all GENERAL NEWS over Europe its descriptive pamphlets haw fallen thick as December snow Hakes. It is tilled Kansas men accordingly.

The steamer Guy andotte, of the old Dominnion steamship line, which was lying at the pier at North river, was sunk this morning early by the carelessness of two firemen. They pulled a plug twelve inches iu diameter out of the bottom of the vessel, and the water rushed in with such rapidity they barely had time to escape with their lives. All on board the steamer had rushed on the dock as the steamer sank soon afterwards. The vessel will be raised, She was built abont two years ago, and cost $800,000. The damage to her furniture, carpets tiuishing and ma- hinery will amount to $25,000. That part of the cargo left on board was injured fully 15,000. SERIOUS TROUBLE THREATENED. St. Louis, June 21. Advices from Northern Texa3 are to the effect that seri ous trouble is looked for ill the "panhan dle" over the driving of southern Texas cat tle through Kansas. Thousand of cattle are going up the Fort Worth and Denver railroad, to be unloaded at Harrold and then driven through. It is claimed these cattle are diseased, and if allowed to go on will spread Texas fever along the line of travel. Kansas men are determined to re sist with all means in their power any effort to drive southern Texas cattle through the neutral strip, or "no man's land," as it is called. It is said that the promise of See t etary Lamar has been obtained to interpose the strong arm of the government to pre vent it and that the United Stales marshal with a strong posse, armed with govern ment authority, will by Monday meet the first herd bound for Kansas, and they will turn the cattle liack or prevent their en trance into the neutral strip. Southern Tevas men are very angry over the matter md pronounce it a scare without reason; ay their cattle are healthy and they will ight before their rights shall be subverted. They are determined to drive into Kansas, and claim that Secretary Lamar has granted them protection to go through, and has no- aderl and iight oven-oats acceptable to well persons. The storm this morning threw down th one wire from tho mountain, thus cut of? communication with the outer world. THINKS GRANT WILf. RECOVER. Philadelphia, June 22. The press says: Dr. Newman preached here at the dedication of the Newburg Methodist church yesterday. He said: I left Mt. McGregor Saturday. I ieneral Grant knows that he is afflicted with a presumably incurable complaint, and is at times despondent I do believe he will recover. Iam not-a believer in the faith cure, but I believe where a nation is send ing up prayers with a worthy object the Al mighty will answer those applications, Di vine interposition is not my only hone. 1 think the sick man's strength will be recruited in his coo mountain home. Cancer, if his suffering is from that malady, kills through exhaustion. I believe the patient's physical power will be so far recruited as to enable him to keep the disease iu obeyauee, and for a time possibly to vanquish it. The Gen eral's mental depression is in a great meas ure caused by physical prostration. His phyaiciaus deelare to him all the facts; in his case. " HIBP.s' OFFER P. EJ ECTEB. Wanhinuton, June 22.

Washington, June 21. California is suf fering considerably from the ravages of grasshoppers, and specimen insects have been sent from several parts of the state to Prof. Riley. He finds them to be the melanuplus devastator and the calopleuus differentiates. The last named is oommon to all parts of the .uinu, ana seldom proves very destructive. while the other is peculiar to the Pacific slope, and is probably doing the present work of destruction.

A REPUBLICAN APPOINTED. Washinotmn, Jnne 21. It having been charged that General A. Kreyzauowski, who whs recently reappointed as inspector of cus toms at New York, is an active republican, a reporter asked Secretary Manning about it, "Why," said the secretary. "I did not inquire into the man's politics at alL His reappointment was asked for by a large num ber of good citizens, on accountof his excellent war record. Another reason urged was that he was in a erynecessitous condition. Al though he is rather old he isable to do the work of his office satisfactory, so I appoin ted him, at a salary of $4 a day, " SOUTHERN ORECON INDIANS TO AvE A RES ERVATION. Washington, June 22. General Pope has transmitted to the war department an ac count of the killing of a Piute Indian named Joe, by two white men in Happy Valley, Or egon. In commenting upon the killing, General Pope again inviees attention to white and Indian outrages which are in creasing in frequency in the sou thern part of Oregon. He says the Piutes having no res ervation, are willing to go and freqnent that country for subsistence, by hunting and fishing. The state of affairs now existing is certain to grow worse, and must finally cul minate in open hostilities, unless a reserva tion is assigned these Indians, and they are placed on it. The commissioner of In dian affairs has directed the agent te inves tigate the circumstances and report measures iooking to the protection -of the Indians. ritory, and the fact that the Canadian Pa cific will carry immigrants from the Atlan tic to the Pacific for Sly will certainly compel a modification of third-class rates on American roads. The Canadian Pacific will also enter the race for the trade of the Orient. " A gentleman connected with tho Cauaiiian Pacific said a few days ago that a fast hue of steamers would be put on be tween its western terminus and China and Japan. He said that Loth the laud and the sea route would be shorter than those by the southern lines. For this reason it is expected that the Canadian Pacific will be an active competitor for Pacific coast trade, both east and west bound."' DENIS KEARNEY AC.'AIN. San Francisco, June 21. Denis Kear ney announces to-day his intention to run tor governor ot tile state next year, on a workiiigman's ticket. The chief plank in his platform will be that municipialities have the right to regulate the workingmau's hours of lahor. H- says he will make a six months campaign, and adds: "It will be the most magnificent campaign ever wit ness I in California, and I will be elected too." A POLYGAMOUS WIFE SENT TO JAIL. Salt Lake, Jnne 22. On Saturday Charles L. White was arrested on a charge of unlawful cohabitation, and had a partial examination before United States Commis sioner McKay. The polygamous wife, a mere child, was asked by the proseecutiou if she was married to defendent. She de clined to answer, and all other questions.
