On the American Union and Mutual Union wires to the number of eighteen, and five Hudson itlver wires were cut in this city just south of Manhattonvilla at various points on the eastern circuit j thirty-three wires were cut also in the vicinity of Manhattonvllle. A large force of linemen was sent out to report the damages. A if accident caused some delay but not near., so much confusion as it would have done a weak ago.

Dispatches received from the West state that the Fort Wayne route was cut last night in the vicinity of Chica go and ' that 'seven routes out of bt .Louis had been interrupted. There was ne apparent change In the condition of , affairs at the Western Union office to-day and tba . strikers seen still firm In their position. ; The rumor that there ia any indication of general weakness on f be part of the strikers is indignantly denied, and the men who have returned to the employ of the company are said to be of infe rior grade. At the Western Union office It was said mis morning tnat two more msn had returned since last night and others were expected to apply te-day. From superintendent Trahul at Nash ville the following dispatch was receiv ed: One striker returned at Macon, Oa, yesterday, completing the full force acre. All the strikers at Savannah, (ia, seven in number, applied to return to work yesterday We have ' but two vacancies and bat two of the applicants were accepted, leaving two first-class men and two second class men wanting employment. Business is moving promptly to all points south. Three operators returned at Norfolk, Va, yesterday and superintendent Tree, of Kichmond, says in his district the strikers openly admit their defeat. Ad vices received from other points also seem to indicate that the men are losing courage and are willing to return to work at any time. At noon a dispatch waa received at the Western Union office stating that nine first-class operators returned to work in Buffalo to-day and aa mani more who applied were rejected .Two were taken back at PITT8BCBQ, August 11.

The officials of the Baltimore and Ohio Telegraph Company, at the main office, at 2 o clock to-day, report the situation unchanged, aa well as their first determination not to treat with the Brotherhood. They disclaim positively any knowledge of a eommittee of telegraphers having been sent for as reported. Norfolk, August 11 Three of the fouri striking operators have returned to work.

'It rooted up three pine irees, five o six t panels of fencing and finally 'overturned', i Mr; Shoemaker's corn crib.- It died trying to root np a big rock. The carcass was hauled away and next day the buzzards feasted on it, and - before they i got through several of them . died'; by the carcass. - Others flew : up into trees. where they sat with ruffled feathers, until they fell to the ground dead.' ;it was a fatal feast and . the .whole farm around was strewn with dead carrion crows. Mr. Shoemaker aays that this is a true bill aad wants to know if any thing like it hzs ever happened in this Country before.

Vernon, who waa widest awake, took to his heels follow ed bv one of the men with a' drawn knife, but succeedsd in eluding bis pursuer in the darkness. John was net so fortunate. A blow f.m a club m the hands of one of the roughs, felled him to the earth and before he could rise one stood over him with a drawn kuife while the other pointed a pistol at him. "Oae of the roughs," said John "called me Jack Rowland, from Da vie county. I told him he waa mistaken my name was John Means. . He said I lied and I told him I didnt, when he swore be would blow my brains oat f I disputed him, aad then I confessed that my name was Jack Rowland. Thiy told me to take off my clothes and gave me half a minute to do it in audi suc cessfully performed the feat. It was a new suit that I bought. from Alexan der & Harris and paid for it 34m Joan started to give his shoes, but they kick ed him and said they didnt want them. They beat him up badly after taking ill he had and before allowing him to escape. As fast as ha could run. he sped through the open fields to the Air Line depot and ap Trade street to In dependence Square, where he found the policemen, as we have stated. Vernon Asbury, who was with Means says that while he was reading the pa per, he heard footsteps, and looking ap, saw three men rushing at him. "One had a knife about this long," said Ver non, holding hia hands two feet apart, "and as he made at me I ran. Being acquainted with the place, I took down a path and escaped him. though he fol lowed me some distance, cutting at me all the time." Vernon aays that he saw the two men jump on Mean and heard Means cry out several times. He made his way to the depot and told his story to a party of train hands, who went with him to the spot, expecting to find the mangled remains of his companion but all they saw was John's hat that had been knocked from hia head by the robbers bludgeon. No signs of the rob bers were ta be found. Means says that he knows the parties and saw two of them in town yesterday, but having no way of ' successfully h-k!ntifyicg them, he did not have them arrested. Neither himself or Vernon had 'any liquor in or about them, he states, as he had been released from the guard bouse : at 11 o'clock that night, after the bars had closed, and in com pany with Vernon, went straight to the woods to spend the balance of the night. The polioe yesterdsy visited the spo but could find no traces of a struggle. It Is a' strange case, but neither John nor Vernon have ever been known to tell a lie, and we must take the story aa strictly - trnthf uL Vernon avers that as he and John are known not to carry valuables IC waa a case of intended diabolical murder. . . ' i .. - s -m sr n hag Capitalist. J The Georgetown and North Carolina Narrow Gauge Railroad project, about which so much haa been said, has turned out badly. It transpires that the lead ing member of . the "syndicate" with which Mr Risley hss made the contract for the building of the road Is Mr. i Johnson, the quuudam colleague of the irrepressible B lan chard. Responsible parties in Boston say that Johnson is without Influence or financial standing of . any kind. .

It is aaid that so far this year there has not been a school of mackerel in American waters. t I lews ef the Carol tma Central.
