DEATH OF DR. BRADDEE. THE MAIL ROB
Der On the night OF the 20th ult., this noto-
rous and, in many respects, remarkable man,
died in his cell, in the Pennsylvania Western
Pententiary. He was convicted OF robhng
the mails and imprisoned IN lS4l, pursuant to
sentence, for ten years. So soon as he became
convicted that his recovery was impossible, he
confessed his guilt, and in his confession he has
implicated several persons who had not bee n
suspected of participating in bis crimes. DR.
Braddee was doubtless the most extensive mail
robber in the Union, having committed depre.
dations to an amount exceeding $lO0O0O in
the fall OF 1910. At the head OF awell organi.
zed band of counterfeiters and robbers, he was,
for time, the very terror OF the neighborhood
in which he resded-but SO cunning, withal,
that time and talents were required to fasien
upon him the evidence OF bis quit. Ills wife,
who chung TO him in adversely, with all the at
fiction o. woman's nature, is now residing al
| Union.town. Pa. He was about forty years OF
age at the time of his death.

NATIONAL FAIR. We ask the attention of
manufacturers and artizans to the circular pub
lished in to-day's paper, by the subcommittee
of arrangements, for the national exhibition of
American manufactures and mechanic art, at
Washington city, on the Goth of May next
We anticipate that it will be one of the most
extensive and splendid exhibitions of the kind
ever witnessed in this country. The citizens of
Washington are erecting very large tempo
;ary building TO contain the various articles
which may he sent, and to display them to the
greatest advantage.
We take occasion TO renew the expression Of
our hope, that the manufacturers and mcchan-
ics of Baltimore and of the State, will shew
themselves and their workmanship upon thi;
occasion, in full force. The exhibition may
tail to convince members of Congress of the
impocy of withdrawing the protective feature
Of the tariff, for majority OF them may have
resolved to adopt free trade principles; but it il
The duty OF those who are in favor of fostering
domestic Industry in preference to that of for
eign lands, to make strong effort to proven
the tariff from being destroyed.
