Brownsville, Texas, September 3.? Oattle stealing on the border has been resumed.,. . After crossing, tbe stolen cattle are boldly driven on the highway, without interference from the military authority. The robberies are estimated at 1,000 head monthly. TrxyavDiLB?

Cincinnati, September 3.?Tho ex? position opens to-day under favorable auspices. The hotels are crowded. Boston, September 3?12 M.? The count stands: Bailer 152; Washburn 122. Two sete of delegates elected from some districts, making nine delegates doubtful, . Halifax, September 3.?A letter from Guysboro says the late galb inflicted its full measure of damage upon that town and the surrounding localities. The Iobb to the inhabitants of Guysboro, mostly to traders, is about 820,000. It is sup? posed that no less* that 100 barns have been blown down in the settlements around Guysboro, and the crops, which promised a bountiful harvest, have been completely destroyed. The fishermen around the coast have lost their netB and seins, and are left without means to proa eon te the fall fishing. A similar story comes from 'Fourche, O. B., wbero lumber, barns, fishing stages, trees, fences, etc, aro piled up in immense piles on the road for a distance of a mile or so. From Fourche to Grand River, there are only three barns standing, the remainder being in ruins. To give an idea of the fury of the fiurrioane, out of two acres of hard woodland atFourohe, there are only ten trees left standing. The fishing schooner Thetis, of Louis? iana, has been wrecked on the North side of Prince Edward's Island, and all the crew, numbering twelve men, were lost. At Cow Head, when the galo was at its fiercest, there were twenty Bail of French fishermen, ana it is supposed every vessel went down, with all on board, for not the slightest vestige of any of them was to be seen when the weather moderated. Abrigantine, with seventeen on board, was struck by a sea off the East Point of Bye, and was over? turned; when ehe righted, her spars were gone clean out of her; the hull was driven on the rooks, and every socl on board perished; the name of the vessel could not be ascertained. At Magdalen Islands, the tides rose eight feet higher than ever known before, and the de? struction of property on land has been almost as great, if not greater, than tbe loss at sea. Another violent thunder and rain storm passed over this city, last night, but no damage bos beon re? ported. The sohooner Ebro was totally wreoked at Gape Breton. Louisville, September 3.?The old board of the short line directors have been re elected. The second Grand Industrial Exhibi? tion was opened to-day, and is a grand 8 ucc68s, Nashtja, N.

The Commissioner of Indian Affairs has a letter from Fort Sill, dated Au? gust 21, whioh says tho Indians therea? bouts were peaceable. Probabilities?For the South Atlantic and Gulf-States, East of the Mississippi, gentle and fresh South-east and South? west winds, partly cloudy weather and rain areas. St. Louis, Septomber 3.?The last deposit of $500 in the Allen and MoCool prize fight was made last night. The fight is to take place on the 23d inst. There is but very little hotting on tho result, although the friends of both parties are sanguine. Bang on, Me., Septomber 3.?A terri? ble fire is raging in the Western'part of East Surry, in a piece of woods, and a large force of men are fighting the flames; but if the high winds continue, a great number of dwelling houses will be burned, as the wells are all dry and hardly anv water to be had. New York, September 3.?Tho De? mocratic State Committee met here to? day, and effected a temporary organiza? tion. A recess, was then taken until this afternoon. It is expected the com? mittee will issue a call for a State Con? vention, to take place early iu October. On the 12th of July last, a severe earthquake was felt all over the Stute of Nicaraugua; caused, us it is snpposod, by the volcano of Momotombo, which has now became very active. Worcester, Mass., September 3.? Tho Democratic State Convention met here this morning. On an informal ballot for a candidate for Governor, Wm. Gaston, of BostodT, leceived 303 votes out of 451. Mr. Gaston was then nomi? nated by acclamation. The convention was quiet and harmonious. Tho con? vention completed the State ticket, as follows: For Lieutenant Governor, Wm. L. Smith, of Springfield. Secretary of State, Benjamin J. Miller, of Williams town. Treasurer, Nathan Clarke, of Lynn. Auditor, Waldo Coburn, of Ded bam. Attorney-General, C. Osgood Morse, of Northampton. Kingston, Jamaica, August 29.?Tho steamer Virginias is still here, but is ev? idently preparing for auother trip to Cuba. The Atlas, from New York, has, it is said, brought her a new captain. The United States steamer Canandaigua still lies here, with cases of ohagres fever on board. The number of cases are di? minishing daily. As soon as she has re? cruited, she will return to Asp in wall. B Sax Francisco, September 3.?Po? litical excitement at the election here to? day is very high. The people's anti railroad ticket appears very strong, and the general belief is it will sweep the held; the fact that the railroad power obtained possession and control both of the regular Democratic and Republican conventions, haviug effectually broken down party lines, and excluded political issues from tho canvass. The contest between P. Crowley, independent, and Theodore G. Cook rill, Democrat, for Chief of Police, hu? taken a strong sec? tarian complexion, and is very bitter. The order of United Americans having publicly declared in favor of Cookrill, many Democrats are votiug for Crowley. The contest for school directors is characterized by much of the same spirit. Ample preparations have been made for the preservation of order at the polls. New York, September 3.?-The ca? shier of the sub-TrcaBury says although a number of S?00 Uuited States notes have been presented for verification, no counterfeit has beeu discovered since yestefrday. During August, 10,035 immigrants ar? rived at Castle Garden; a decrease of over 4,000 for tho corresponding mouth of last year. From July 1, to August 31, 201,917; a decrease of 4,874 for the same period of last year. Tel?: a rn p Ii Ii ? Com mi-re 1 it 1 KfnortU. Paris, September 3.?BenteB 57f. Go.

A respectable London newspaper is good enough to say: "People talk much of peoulation in tbe United States, but oar firm oonviction is, that the loss ia Eng? land duo to sineoares, sham services, and general waste, amounts to far more than ten times the sacrifice which tbe vioioua civil service system of America entails." Mr. Baxter, M. P. and Secre? tary of tho Treasury, lately said, in giv? ing evidence before a seleot committee of tbe Commons, tbat be was "inclined to think tbat six hours was too short a time for clerks to be at thoir work." Then came a correspondent of the Times, asserting that "there could be no health iu the civil service until those who think six hours enough are turned out of it, aud thoso who now work and are willing to work eight or nine hours are properly paid for it." Moreover, Mr. Baxter complained that there were too many clerks, aud declared "tbat, by the iutroduotion of copying machines, u saving of from ?200,000 to X300.U0? might be effected." Circumlocution must have been a good deal startled by these revolutionary suggestious, espe? cially as the House of Commons seems inclined to act upon them. Death or an Old Citizen.?On Sa? turday last, Mr. Redding ltoberts, one of our oldest and most respected citi? zens, diod at bis home, near Campbell's Bridge, iu this Couuty. He was ninety three years of ago, having been a soldier ia tho war of 1812. Ho was enjoying a pension at his death. -- Mm-ion Star. Ex-Governor Foote, of Mississippi, who has been engaged for several weeks past in writing Southern reminiscences for a daily paper, will eoou, according to ourrent report, be appointed by tbo Preeidont to an important foreign mis? sion in South America. M. Roohefort, on leaving Franco for New Caledonia ia compauy with a butch of fellow-Communists, of very unclean and anattraotive appearanoo, is said to have murmured, "Alas! I always advo? cated equality, und now I have got it." One of Mr. Greeley's sayings is re? ported to have been tbat if ho had to start in life again, and tbo choice was proffered betweeu a classiual education and his trade 01 a printer, he would un? hesitatingly prefer the trade. Fresh batter is said to bo a enre for erysipelas, applied to the part affiioted, without salt. How an Old Ladt Turned the Ta BIiVS ox TWO Rodders.?The OpelouBas iL?.) Journal, of the 15th, is responsible Or the following: Down in the parish of St. Martin, an old widow, whose children had all mar? ried-off and 16ft her alone, had been per? suaded to soil her little plaoo and live with them. She sold her land, build? ings and improvements one day, for $2,000, and received the money in cash on the spot, in her own house, where the act of sale was passed before two witnesses, the number required by law, and who witnessed also the paying of the money. In a short time she was to give posses? sion, but she remained in the house the night following the sale, all alone, as was her custom. That night two negro burglars broke iuto the house and de? manded her money or her life. She gave it to them, but begged them to let her have $100 of it, as she owed that amount, and wanted to pay the debt, when she would be satisfied. They finally consented to let her keep the hun? dred dollars. They then ordered her to make some coffee for them to drink. In doing so, ahe bethought herself of some strychnine she had in the house, and quietly dropped it in tho pot of steam? ing coffee, and placed it on the table with oups, spoons and sugar for them to pour out and sweeten to their taste. This they did, and drank in a jolly mood, each one having $950 in his pocket. But in a few minutes the tables were turned. One gave up the ghost whero he sat at the table iu his chair, and the other got up, staggered off a few feet, and tumbled over into eternity. The good old ludy recovered her money, and on examining the persons of tho black, burglarious robbers, tboy turned out to be the two wituesses to tho act of sale, both whito men, blackened for the occnt-iou?both her neighbors, and oue was her cousin. Dean Goulbcrn's Idea of the Devil. Deal Goulburu pronched a remarkable sermon at St. Paul's Cathedral, Lon? don, lately. The subject was "The Personality of the Devil," aud the Dean argued that our Saviour was a personal champion sent to destroy a personal tyrant. Ho did not deny that it was possible to accommodate, or rather strain, certain Scripture texts to the view that the devil meant the sys? tem of evil; but whut were we to say to the many instances where the devil's personal agency is distinctly declared? By tho denial of the personal existence of the Evil One, the entire scheme of redemption was robbed of its signifi? cance, its most fundamental propor? tions were destroyed, and a long stride was made towards moral skepticism and soul-destroying infidelity. Tho most pestilent German rationalist maintains that Jesus Chiist is a myth, the repre? sentative of all that is good. The mise? rable so-called philosophy of the day would cheat us of our faith in persons, and give us cold, passionless ideas. He admitted that there were difficulties in the aocouut of the temptation, iu the first lessons for the day; but could the philosophers invent a theory whioh could better explain the ridale of oar nature? So says the London Graphic. When we consider the eminence of this distinguished divine, who is oue of the j most popular of the Angelican preachers, and an author of no small celebrity, the importanco of these outgivings, as indi? cating the ebb of the tide of scientific infidelity, cannot be over-estimated. A singularly honest man has just turned up in Now York, lie is the first man, woman or ohild, living or dead, who ever returned a borrowed umbrella, and especially who ever found oue and advertised it in order that it might be reclaimed by tho owner. The wonder? ful individual who did this is Mr. Wil lard A. Pearoc, of tho firm of Offen & Hunt, No. 5 Maiden Lane, and iz thus described by the Sun: "Mr. Pearce is about forty years old, rather below the medium height, has black hair and whiskers, and seoms to be in his right mind. He is exceedingly modest iu de? meanor, aud says that lrom his boyhood up, his conduct never before indicated any tendency toward erratic freaks of abnormal honesty." If Mr. ' Pearco should give any other indications of in? sanity, we shouldn't suppose it would bo quite safe to let him run at large any longer. According to tho editor of the Tusca loosa Times, tho present condition ol Alabama must be truly bad?to use the expression of the Times, "appalling." Hor Treasury ib bankrupt, her credit is nunihilated, labor is demoralized, cue rous tuxes crush her people to tho earth. Her public schools are threatened with suspension, corruption reoks in all de? partments of Stato Government, and so on, until the dark pioture becomes more and moro dark aud gloomy. "What has brought about this sad condition of things in Alabama?" asks our Ttucn loosn cotemporary. Aud he replies, that "but one truthful response can be given to tho interrogatory, to wit: Tho rule of tho scalawag, tho carpet-bagger aud the negro has been tho architect of this disastrous overthrow of the fortunes aud bopes of a great commonwealth. A 'black man's party,' organized, mani? pulated and controlled by nativo apos? tates and hireling adventurer has done the mischief." Tho National Republican Convention which reuominated Grant, adopted a resolution declaring tho party in favor of "tho strictest ecoucmy." Yet, says the Now York WorUl, wo find that party in Congress, beforo Graut commenced tho torm for which the convention nominated him, increasing tho pay of Congressmen from $5,000 to $7,500, and that i f tho President from $25,000 to50.'w Iding at least $3,000,000 per year to me taxes and taking that much economy.
