MISCARRIAGE OF MAIL MArrERs.-The resolu.
ton Of inquiry proposed by Mr.. Fish, and adopt
ed by the Senate, is understood to have origina
ted in some very gross abuses, to which the Post
Office Department will no doubt apply the rem
edy promptly, If the source Of evil can be ascer.
tanned. 1t has been stated, for instance, that
out OF forty documents mailed by members of
some Of the Southern States, not more than
three have been received at their destination;
and of seeds sent from the Patent Office under
frank, most Of them have been lost or abstract
ed. Complaints have been made by the publish,
er OF an illustrated work that his copies have
been so often lost as to require him to send his
embellished numbers by express, whilst plain
works never failed to be transmitted safely. The
evil is evidently the result of want of fidelity
on the part of subordinate agents somewhere.
ANOTHER MURDER AT THE HALF-WAY HOUSE.
"A short time since we noticed the murder of
Henry Early, proprietor of the Halfway House,
between Rock Island and Moline. Another muir
der has been committed at this same saloon.
Since Mr.. Early's death the saloon has been kept
by MIR. johnson, with Charles Lewis bar-keeper
Last Friday night three Irishmen visited the
saloon and called for liquor. They grumbled at
the price charged, when Lewis told them if they
did not like the price they could have it TOR moth
lug, ana went INTO an ADJOINING room LOT coal.
They followed him, and as he bent down over
the coal. one of them hit him over the head with
a poker, breaking his skull, and causing his death
in short time. They then rushed into the
front room, seized Mr.. johnson, who was there
by the throat, choked or "garrotted" HIM, till
he was breathless, and then made off The
Rock Islander of Saturday evening, from which
we gather these particulars, says that one of the
three men has been arrested. He says he left
before the blow was given, but can tell all about
the murder.-[Dav. Gaz.

FENCE! FENCE! FENCE!
I'M undersigned have hand and now offer for
L sale large stock OF Wire Fence, comprising va.
rous patterns and sizes. We call the attention Of all
VINO may be interested in tie item of fencing to ad
vertisencnt.
For farmers 1t is the best possible kind OF fence that
can be used particularly in fencing off prnires where
that 1t Is not without much labor and expense, timber
and rock can be obtained 1t is the ghtest cheapest
strongest and most durable iron that has
been tested besides requiring less repairing than any
other 1t has been used to great extent both In the
Eastern and Middle States and in all has met with
the general approval Of the public. s..
To those who require a fence for front yard or
house lot, recommend wire fences being Just the
thing for while they possess not only neaness strength
and durability in themselves they possess advantages
over others, In that they disfgurs landscape, OBJ
struct no lawn and that they enhance rather
stroy the symmetry and beauty of ornamental grounds
We take pleasure in recommending this style of fence
to Railway corporations and contractors generally,
feeling confident that 1t is the BEST cheapest strongest
and most durable Kind Of fences that they use.
We invite all to call and examine our stock.
