MA laughable incident occurred at Columbus,
Ohio, day or two since at meeting of thes spirit
rappers. An unbel;eving lady was induced to at
tend circle and 10 test the tIuhfulness of their
revelations, she proposed to the medium to tell her
how many children she hat given birth 10. The
spirit raped four times, which meant she had four
children. She was very much surprised 10 think
they could tell, and Immediately sought her hus-
band and communicated 10 him the fact, and he,
"honest SOUL" being pleased with the revelation,
wished 10 step in and see for himself On coming
TO the circle the husband proposed the same ques-
ton again, and in answer got but ttvo raps, which
meant two children were his. The husband look
ed astonished, the wife said Oh my! and stepped
out.-Forest City.

Mail Arrangement.

We haze often wondered that our citizens, and
those along the route between this place and
Wellsyile, could rest contented with the present
arrangement for the transportation OF the mail be-
tween Wheeling and Wellville Ohio. The East
ern mail from Baltimore arrives here at . O'Clock,
p. NJ, and is distributed by 8 that afternoon.-
The mail leaves this place at > o'clock P. NJ for
Wellsville and proceeds only to Steubenville that
night, and to Wellsville by 10 o'clock A. NJ the
next day. BY this arrangement the mail for the
East has 10 remain in Wheeling "a hours before 1t
re- commences its travels, then it spends the night
at Steubenvile, and arrives at Welsville next day.
making thus the period necessary for taking the
Eastern mail TO WellsvIlle, from the time OF its a.
rival at Wheeling, Al hourS! BY the previous
contract the mail, then arriving at WheeliT5 at
O'Clock p. NJ, was taken away at a M. the
next morning, and arrived at Wellsvile al IL NJ
that day, unless detained by low waer OF Ice and
it rarely then happened that the 'lal did not ar
rive at Wellsville on the same 'uy 1t lett Wheel
ing, generally in Is hours roh the time CT its arrl-
val in Wheeling, and a!mos'alwayS within "A hours
after that arrival. The apartment was dissatisfied
with this arrangemen'and made in its stead the
present one, or in Jther words preferred A hours
lois. We do m see why this should be so. Why
cannot the sc,=dule be altered 50 as to make the
Welsville uail leave Wheeling at O. clock P. NJ,
and thus larry the Baltimore mail to Wellsvle in
10 hops instead of A. and take it to Steubenvile
on ,re same day, and thus supply the intermediate
r,lnts with the mail in due season. We hope that
our citizens, and those along the line, will take
this matter in hand and procure such mail ar
1angement as will accommodate the persons and
offices interested with such arrangement as is
in accordance with the progress of this rather than
past age.

STEAupoAr CAPTAINS AND OWNERS AssoCiA-
r1ov or THE Cry OF LoUIsvILLE-TARIFF OF
FRE1euTs, &c-On Saturday morning, at an ad-
ionrned meeting of owners and captains at Walk
er's Exchange the annexed tariff of prices and
excellent resolutions were adopted. The atten-
ton of owners and captains elsewhere is directed
to the proceedings which contain reveral praise
WORTHY resolutions, ore of which renders it incum
bent that they aid each others boats in distress,
when hailed for that purpose, and only charge for
actual expense incurred. The employment OF
runners is strictly prohibited in all cases. The
adoption of the resolutions in regard TO hiring
white deck hands, or firemen, requiring them to
sign shipping papers to for the trip or month";
as the case may be, is a good move, and much
trouble and annoyance will be saved in adhenng
to it.
On motion of Captain P. A. Key, II. l, Spots
was called to the Chair, and on motion OF b. L.
Elliott, Silas F. Miller appointed Secretary .
Whereupon, the Secretary read the report oil
the committee appointed at the last meeting on
the 18th.
ResoIped lst That the minimum rates for the
transportation of cargo and stock. from LOUIS
vile, Portland and other points below, as lar
down as Smithland, to New Orleans ard way
