'Continuation of Press Dispatches The Mustang Race will be Tried Over- Trie Fool of a Rider Admits the Fool Part. Pdcific Mail Steamship Com pany Affairs: Prospects of Proposed Peace in the Future. Loss of Life Among Fish ermen of Gloucester. -Kellogof told to eo Home o and Mind his own affairs; Sound Advice from Grant. Ex Doorkeeper Fitzhugh Desperate in a fit of Ab straction. A 2few York dispatch says the Mustang rider, we are glad to see, proposes to repeat his attempt to ride 300 miles, in fifteen hours. His throw ing the blame of his failure mainly on the rain and heavy track is doubt less just; but wo are glad to see that he admits his mistake in attempting to ride for such a length of time with out proper nourishment. A financial agreement of the Pa cific old and new stockholders has been arranged, the latter promising to reimburse the old directors for any funds advanced to the company, and on this condition the property is to be turned over to the present holders of stock, so that the annual election will be proceeded with on the 31st. A new contract, or lease, will be made with the Panama road and the two companies will work in harmony again. Five fishing vessels and forty nine lives have been'lost in the Glou cester fisheries this year. It-is reported that Grant said to Kellogg if he (Kellogg), wcredischarg ing his duties at home, instead oi be ing here asking for troops, peace would be maintained. The President also added with some vehemence, that he was tired of being bored with Louisiana affairs and didn't want to be perplexed with them any more, and hoped Kellogg wonld attend to his duty. The ex-ofiicers of State here regard the rebuking as just. The Postmaster General will soon send South trustworthy agents to keep the National Republican Committee informed in regard to campaign news. The House committee on Territo ries adopted the favorable report made hy sub-committee on Lane's bill to annex "Walla "Walla and Columbia counties to the State -of Oregon, and recommended the report to the House for passage. Ex-doorkeererFitzlmr'li, when 3ie vacated his ofiice yesterday earned away witli him certain valuable rec - ords. He also -went to the document , room and asking to be hown several in- dex boxes showing the number, of doc-1 uniciiis and books drawn by and be- i longing to each member, and these be ing produced, he coolly took them and , placing them under his arm, walked off. All efforts to get them back have been unavailing. Cox, Speaker pro j tern, has directed the searent-at-arms ! of the House to take steps to recover j the records. Fitzhugh says lie haa 'imjpctttant information which will! make Rmiocrate :trenible, and-injure J party interests if it becomes known. He intimates that he may use it to get even "with those who have disgraced him.a It is probable that, tmtil the arriv al of Judge Pierrepont at the Court of St. James, nothing of a definite char acter will be done by our government in relation to the existing misunder standing upon the provisions of the extradition treaty, which are at pres ent altogether inoperative. Referring to the interruption of Senator Mitchell by Senator Merri mon, when speaking in favor of Sar gent's bill to restrict Chinese migra tion, the Chronicle says: "Senator Merrimon interrupted the speaker to make the inquiry whether any por tion of the Chinese on this coast were naturalized, his impression being ap parantly that if they could be per suaded to take kindly to the idea of becoming American citizens all the evils of the imigration would be neu tralized and the objections to the Asi atic influx would be triumphantly answered. This furnishes an unpleas ant and almost disheartening illustra tion of the difficulty of making the eastern mind comprehend the real aspects of this terrible problem.
