Paris, August 2.?la the Ansembly,
Galloni D'Estra, a Bonapartist, said

Deputies of the Left rushed toward
him, shooting and shaking their flits.
The President was unable to restore

Cape Mat, August 2.?The sacred
concerts were this morning assailed
from the altar by Priest Deger, at the
Catholic Ohurob. He satted that in
the Catholio Church alone could ea
ored songs be with propriety chanted,
and denounced the Stockton House,
Congress Hall and the Columbia House
concerts and their guests, in unmea?
sured terms. His argument was that
only music composed for sea-aide con?
certs should be used, and that Catho?
lics were obliged to attend vesper ser?
vice, which he fixed for Philadelphia,
Baltimore and New York, at 8 o'clock
P. M. After mass, the Catholics in?
formally mot in the front of St. Mary's
Chnrch, and denounced the priest as
intruding on Catholic usage, by having
vespers at night, instead of iu the af?
ternoon, as ordered by the statutes of
the diocese. The iudignation rose
high, and the case is to be reported to
Bishop Corlgad, at Newark. Indica?
tions point to the fact that the priest
desired to forae vesper attendance at
an unusual hour for financial gain,
and was chagrined that thousands as?
sembled to enjoy Prof. Harken's vocal
'concert at the Columbia House, and
also Di>dsworth's instrumental enter?
tainments at Congress Ha 1 and the
?Stockton House. As far as can be
ascertained, the rubrics of the diocese
of Newark prescribe 3t? o'clock as
vesper hoar. The action of Priest
Deger is regarded as contrary to Ca?
tholio usage, aud the entire Catholio
community is in rovolt. Father O'Neil,
of the Philadelphia Cathedral, said
late mass, but made no remarks. The
visiting priests here condemn Deger,
aud the BiBhop's formal condemnation
is looked for.
Nnw Orleans, August 2.?The pri?
mary selections for delegates to the
Republican State Convention, to be
held on the 14th of August, took place
here to-day. The main fight was on
the Chairmanship of the Republican
State Central Committee, between
Pinohbaok, supported by Collector
Casey, United States Senator West
and others, and Marshal Paokard, the
present incumbent, supported by Go?
vernor Kellogg. Iu the city Congres?
sional delegation, Paokard oarried fif?
teen out of sixteen wards, and one
ward is doubtful. Pinchbauk was de?
feated in his own ward. There is
mnoh excitement, but no disturbance.
Governor Kellogg signed the death
warrant of one white and four colored
oonviots, for killing a flit-boatman in
the Parish of Assumption.
New YonK, August 4.?Two law?
yers, convicted of a coospiraoy to de?
fraud heirs, have beeu sentenced to
two years' imprisonment und $300
fine. A youth, aged twenty, who
pleaded guilty of kidnapping a girl,
aged eight, was sentenced to ono year.
Ho returned her safe next day, but
would give no roasou for takiug the
child away. Van Etten, the California
bond forger, died to-day, from the
effects of laudanum. Wheu dying, he
said he never intended to go to Sau
Francisco for trial.
About $90,000 worth of orude spirits
was- seized at different places in tho
city, yesterday, on suspicion that fraud
was intended on the Government in its
measurement. The liquor was con?
tained in 1,475 barrels. The discovery
of the supposed fraud is the result of
the new order of the Internal Revenue
Department, requiring all high wines
to be rogauged before rectification. It
is said that about $50,000 has been ad?
vanced by merohanta in this city on
the liquor ander seizure.
The Beeober Investigating Commit?
tee continued their session this even?
ing, in private. ' Six witnesses were
examined?four gentlemen and two
ladies. Two of the witnesses were
understood to be Mr. and Mrs. Beaoh,
friends of Mr. Beecher, whose resi?
dence adjoins his farm at Peekskill.
Tho other lady was olosely veiled and
oould not be identified. After leaving
the house, sho was accompanied by
Mr. Ovington to the residence of Mr.
Beecher, on Columbia Heights. The
other witnesses' names oould not be
' ascertained.
Mrs. TiltOn's cross-examination will
be made public to-morrow. It was
stated that.either Mr. Beecher or Mr.
Moolton will testify before the com?
mittee to morrow evening, wheu it is
believed the examination will be con?
cluded. A telegraphio despatch was
received from F. B. Carpenter, saying
he should not appear before the com?
mittee, and that an explanation of his'
reasons would be found in a letter
which ho had sent to the oommittee.
A letter was presented to the oommit
too, last night, from Rev. Dr. Storrs,
in whioh ho stated that he had no per?
sonal knowledge of the matters whioh
came before the oommittee; that he
? had soen a statement signed by Mrs.
Tilton and referred to in Mr. Carpen?
ter's statements, and in Mrs. Tilton's
testimony of Friday evening, whioh j
oontained a grave chargo, expressed in
these words: "Od a certain oocasion,
Mr. Beeober solicited me to become a
wife to him, with all that ia implied in
this relation. This proposition I com
rrmnicated to my husband;" bat on
aooount of the laok of persoual kuow
ledge, Dr. Storra expressed the opi?
nion that it would not be necessary for
him to appear before the committee,

Boston. August 2.?A special from
Oak Bluffs to the Advertiser sayB:
"For some weeks, there has been a
great deal of scandal in connection
with Mr. Yiusou, of E Igartown, uud
S. K. Elliott, of Worcester, who have
oooupied a oottage iu company with
two married women belonging to Ed
gartown. These men have been
threatened with a coat of tar and
feathers, and Vinsou, fearing trouble,
left the island some weeks ago. Last
night, about 11 o'clock, a party went
to the oottage and called Elliott. After
considerable trouble, they forced him
into w wagon, in which were a pot of
tar and u bag of feathers. Elliott
drew a revolver aud fired twice, the
seoond shot killing Caleb Smith,
brother of the two women. Intense
excitement prevails in oonsequence of
the affair."

OWENSBOROUOH, K\\, August 4.?
Daring an election row, George W.
Swope, lute Senator, killed Perry
liiley, in tbo Court House yard.
Cai*e May, August 4 ?Tho diffi?
culty which ocourred on Sunday, iu
regard to sacred concerts at Ihe ho?
tels, has been much exaggerated. Fa?
ther Deger, iu speaking of them, said
that some portions of the mnsio would
be more appropriate in a Oatholio
churoh, as they were solemn to every
Catholic heart, and reoommended his
members to come to churoh and hear
holy chants, in preference to attend?
ing hotel concerts. There was no de?
nunciation of Father Deger by the Ca?
tholics for his aotion, in which there
was nothing wrong, as pastors are al?
lowed by the Bishop to fix the time for
vespers to suit the convenience of tbe
members. The Catholics here ure
staunch friends of Father Deger, and
attribute to him no improper motives.

A. A. G., Headquarters Division of

He reports large numbers of Indians
ooming in from the North, who say
that Stabbor, a prominent Indian, in a
disturbance, last spring, at the agen
oies, and sevoral others, were killed by
Ouster's men. There seems to he
mach feeling in consequence among
the Indians ooming in and at the ageu
oies. The Indians report tjio death of
twenty-one Iudians, wounded in the
Bates fight.

Washington, August 4.?Reporte
having beeo circulated to the effect
that Attorney-General Williams would
louder his resignation, on account of
the refusal of Congress to enact cer?
tain laws recommended by him in re?
gard to reduotion of expenses of
United States Marshals in some of the
Southern Judicial Districts and for
other causes. It can be stated, ou the
authority of the Attoruey-Goneral him?
self, that nothing has passed between
him and the President npou the sub?
ject. Tho Attorney-General did re?
commend certain legislation last ses?
sion to Congress, whioh would have
reduced the expenses of many Judi?
cial Districts of the South; but us Con?
gress did not deem it expedient to
enact such a law, the Attorney-General
dees not hold it sufficient cause for
bira to tender his resignation. As to
the rumor regarding his probable ap?
pointment to tho Russian mission, he
states that uo word has passed between
him and the President in regard to that
subject, and that he has given to it no
thought; and to far as he knows, the
Presideut has no idea of using his
name in that connection.

New York, August 4.?Tiltou has
written a letter to S ige, Chairman >?i
the Beechor Investigating Committc,
in response to oue from Sage, culling
for certain papers. Tilton declares
that he had already produced the pa?
pers desired before the committee, but
waB prevented from reucbing tbetn.
He now, by advice of counsel, declines
to give them up. He charges that the
oommittee is of Beecher's friends, ap?
proved by Beecher aud expected to uut
in his behalf. He also says that the
daily papers have been carefully fed
each day with crumbs of fictitious evi- I
deuce against his owu character, as if
he aud not Beecher was ou trial; and
further remarks, it is right, perhaps,
to hold your committee responsible for
this daily misrepresentation, which
may come through malice of others,
yet the result is the same to me us if
you had deliberately designed it, aud
that the result is this, namely: I ex?
pect no justice cither from your tri?
bunal, since you cannot compel wit
nosses to testify, nor from your report?
ers, since they do not give impartial
reports; sod, third, I cannot resist tho
conviction, though I mean no offence
in expressing it, that your committee
hau uuuiu ul ladt to be as little satis?
factory to the public as to myself, aud
that yoar verdict, if you render one,
could not possibly be based on full
facts. .Since you have no power to
compel witnesses, nor to verify the
testimony by oath, nor to sift it by
oroBs-examiuatiou?for theBe reasons,
whioh ought to have moved me earlier?
I have at last instructed my counsel to
proceed at once, at his discretion, to
carry my case from your jurisdiction
to a court uf law; and, iu view of this
instruction from me, he has in turn
instructed me to hold no further com?
munication with your committee, ex?
cept this present letter of courtesy,
iu which I have tho honor to bid you
farewell, aud which, allow me to mid,
that respect which I am unable to
entertain for your committee as a tri?
bunal, I cauuot help expressiug for
ouch and ah as individuals.
Oo the 12th of July last, Officer
Thomas Barrett, of the Sixth Precinct,
was bitten on tho hand by a dog. He
immediately shot the animal, but the
fear of hydrophobia preyed npou his
mind to such a degree that he was
oonfined to his bed for a week. When
the roll was called, this morning, he
complained of feeling unweii, aud uu
officer handed him a glass of water; he
dashed it to the floor, and betrayed
the usual symptoms of diseaso?bark?
ing and'snapping at those around htm.
He was taken to the Park Hospital
and physicians think it is a case of
lyssophobia, instead of the genuine
disease.
A post mortem examination having
been made of the remains of Van
Etten, the California bond forger, it
was discovered that death had resulted
from congestion of the lungs?he
having completely recovered from the
effects of the laudanum. His harsh
treatment, while under tho effects of
the poison, and needless exposure?
being allowed to lie naked for some
hours?are assigned as causes which
led to congestion.
