Fred. Sharpley, the minstrel, died in Newark last night.

Senator Conkling is reported dangerous- ly ill in Utica.

The wife of 8. D. Phillips at Buffalo City, Arkansas, chopped her hushand to pieces with an axe while he slept on Monday night, dragged the remains into the front yard and went to bed, whers she was ar- rested. .

It says that the returns generally indicate that Carr (Secretary 6t State), Wadsworth (Comp- troller), Wendell (Treasurer), and Ward (Attorney General)—all Republicans—are considerably ahead, and are probably elected by 2,000 to 5,000 majority.
