DlSFATCHES froni Minister üushing leave no doubt of the truth of the report that tho indemnity demanded by our governnient from Spain for outrages oouimitted ou American citizens, is to be referred to the arbitration provided by the Virginius protocol. TllE Supprintendent of the Postal Railway Service, in his annuil report, recommends tho establishment of a fast and exclusive mail train between New York and Chicago, as there appears to be a growing necessity for the same, to run the distance in about twenty-four hours. The iron manufacturera in Western Pennsylvania and Northern Ohio have decided to close their milis altogether until there Í8 some improvement in the market.

AT AN expense to the Government of more than $1,500 per day, Secretary Robeson is charged with hiring 650 men during the two weeks preceding the Massuchusetts election. The day after elootion most of these men were discharged. This disgraceful and corrupt prooeeding should receive a thorough investigation and exposé, that its perpetrators may be held up to the scorn and odium of an outraged people. ABOUT the only gloomy and unconifortable Thangsgiving editorial that canie under our notioe was that of the New York Tribune. The argument seems to be that the Americans can not be " a genial thanksgiving people " because they have " dyspeptic, neuralgic mothers." This is a view that will not stand the test of general observation, however ready we may be to accept the writer's ideas upon the hereditary influence of these diseases, as exhibited in his own article. Later and more authentio reports of the tornado at Tuscumbia, Ala., have been received. The storm did fearful work. Eleven lives were lost, and $100,000 to $150,000 worth of proporty was destroyed.

A TIMKLY WARNINO is that givon by the Detroit papers for care in the purohase of salt white físh, just at prosent. lts occasion ia fouud in the supreme meanness oí sorne of the people thereabout, who aretrying to " turn a penny" by salting and selling the fish that died in the Blioal ponds on the Canada side of tbe Detroit Eiver, by reason of the depletion of the water in the ponds during the recent gales. As the Pust soleinnly observes : " Thoee fish that oame to their death in the marnier indicated, are deceased and should not bo used." Not that their " decease " makea so much difference as the fact that they wore proba" bly diseasod as woll. The Sonate Committee on Transportation, in their report, just published, dovoto considerablB Bpaco to tho subject of sloeping cars in relation to tho expenses of railroad compames. Thoir conclusions aro that the sleeping car companies are a questionable advantago to the railroads, and that the charges for tho berths are excessive. Mr. Pullman, President of' the Palace Car Company, in a letter to the committee, contends that tho railroad companies cannot manage the system of sleeping and drawing-room coaches so satisfactorily as a company that makes a specialty, and that by tho adoption of his system constant annoyance is saved to invalida, ladies and traveling partios. TlIE Indiana Suprerue Court has do cided that colored children are not entitled to the public school benefits of that State, because the State Constitution provides that only the ohildren of "citizens" are entitled to thoso benefits, and that colored people, not having boen "citizens" wheu the State Constitution was adopted, the Fourteenth Amendnient of the National Constitution, subseqmmtly adopted, does not suporsedü this pro visión of tho SUte Constitution. It is announced from Washington tlmt, in view of this decisión the frionds of tho Civil Kights bill intend to urgo its prompt passage, no matter whether the President vetoes it or not. It has passed the Senate, aud is pending in tho Houso Judiciary Comniittee. A s.l) case of inurder or self-dc?truction oceurred ueai the villago of Brouson, Braiich county, on Friday nigbt last, at he house of a farmer named Hugli Duvis, tbc partiuulars of whioh we learn trom the Detrüit l'ott. It apgeaw that )ü the evciung in (juestion Miss Aluiedn Dftvip, ago 17 years, and yoüngest iaughter of Mr. Daviki, was spending tho evéning witb a youug man nauied Sergeant. The otber memben of the f'amily wevo at home, consisting of fathur and niothtu', two oldcr sinters, a young brother, and a young man named Martin Bunnell, who was working for Davia at the timo, and who had at different times tried to win the afftotkms of Miss Davis. About 11 o'clock Miss Duvis W(nt to ber room up stairsfor thepurpose of retiring. A few minutes ufterwards Bunnell went to hia room, which adjoins that occupied by Miss Davis. In about half an hour hu carne down stairs again and went out doors, but did not return. Shortly after Bunnell went out the oldest sister went up stairs to go to bed with Alineda, and found her lying in bed with her ihroat cut. As soon as the murder was discovered, suspicion restod on Bunnell as the porpetrator of the deed, and he was imniediatoly tracked by the sheriff of the village to bis home, about two miles distant. When the sheriff stepped upon the doorstep of Bunnells house he hoard some ono run up stairs, and after guiniug entrance was met by Bunnell's futher who informed him that Martin had not been home that night. The sheriff, however, made search aud i'ound hiiu up stairs secreted uuder aome bed clothes, and promptly arrested hiiu. An inquest was held Saturday, and the coroner's jury brought in a verdict of suicide. Nothing positive has been proven against Bunnell yet. The evidenco, however, implicftting hiiu in the sad affair is bo strong that he is held in custody until further examination. The Supreme Court of the country has again distinguished itself. Sinco the Dred Scott decisión the African has gained rights it is bound to respect, now the poor Indiau must suffer. It has stripped the last clout, and pluckod the lastfoot of huuting ground from him. It says that in his tribal relations, he has no right of property, that he cannot sell either the land he has long called his own or the, timber and minerals upon it. Thus many tribes that were wealthy are made paupers. It also destroys the purchases white men have made of land from the Indiaas. If the Indians neither have, nor ever had any fee interest in American lands, why does the American ernmont afford them support in ostensible exohango for their lands 'i If they have notbing to give, why is so ïnuch given to Ihem ? Or, is this government ouly a grand eleemosynary institution for the support of paupers ? We notice tliat the Plint & Pere Marquette Railway Coinpany have finally completed their road to Lake Michigan. The grant of land given by Congress to aid in building it was made ia June 1836, over 18 years since. The land inuring to the coinpafiy under the grant was about 500,00(T acres, ernbracing some of the flnest pine timber land in the State, worth now from $25 to $50 per acre. Under the tertns of the grant the road should have been couipleted in 1866, but the time was extended by Congress. It has been a good thing for the Saginaw valley, and a rich one for its proprietors and managers as the lands alone will probably more than pay the entire cost of construction. Our Republican administratien surely takes care of its lands. Capt. E. B. Wakd is President, and Hon. Z. Ciiandler is said to be a large stockholder. Geo. Crookeb, Esq., of Flint, whose death recently oocurred there, was oue of the early pioneers of Genessee county, an Englishman by birth, came to thia country about 1836. At the time of his death he was Vice President of the First National Bank. Up to within a few years he owned one of the best farms in the county, and was one of its best farmers, doing his f uil share of labor in earrying it on, which was somewhat remarkable, as his weight would not vary for fiom 500 pounds. He was very suoeessful finanoially, and leaves a large property to be divided among his relatives. He leaves no family, his wife died some ten years sinoe. SÍH0B tho defeatof tho lïepublican party in tho old Bay State, many of the prominent leaders- on the principie, perhaps, of loeking the stable after the horse has been stolen - begin to show signs ot dissatisfaction at the corruption prevailing iu politics, and express the conviotion that all honest men, no matter what may be their political affinities should frown upon thieves and embezzlers. There are muuy in this State who begin to open their eyes to the gigantio wrongs perpetrated upon the American people in one forin and another, by means of the manipulation of party inachinory in the hands of unscrupulous politiciuns. DuiiiNO the past week a conference of prominent ruilroad managers was held in St. Louis for the purpose of effecting some arrangement with the St. Louis Bridge Oorupany, for the Crossing trains ; but the demands of the Coinpany are such that nothing in the way of compromiso was effected. It is now statod that unless that Company soon concludes to offer fair terms, the different railroads interested will uuite in building a Union Depot in East St. Louis, and leave the Bridge Company in undisputod possession of its elephant. TüE Senato Cominittee oa Appropriations is going over the book of estimates, oöico by offbe, in order to root out all supornumeraries. During the war a numbcr of offices were created whioh served au important purpose at the time, but the causes for their existence no longer exist.
