The HOMICIDE NEAR ALEXANDRIA, NA.--lhe
Alexandria Sentinel gives the following account
of the homicide which occurred in that vicinity
on Sunday, the 9th ult.
We have been unable to obtain further par
ticularS of the sad affair than those when we
give below, and which we have from the ups
of Mr. James G. Austen, the father OF the lau'
1t seems that in connection with church 1T
Mount Carmel, which is served from the L. L.
theological Seminary, q Sabbath School mas
been recently established, in which young Aus
ten was employed as teacher. At q plc-nic
given by the school some time since dlficuity
occurred in which Birch and Austen fought
Since that time q feud he's existed, and on yes
terday just before the opening OF the exercises
of the Sabbath School, Austen was set upon oy
several persons, among whom was Bircil' anu
severely bruised to release himself he 1red
three shots from a revolver, with which, SINCE
the feud, he had armed himself. One OF tile
shots took effect on Birch, terminating his lie
in few minutes
Austen was arrested, brought to town, and
is now in JAIL So far as we can ascertain no
inquest has been held upon the body of Birch,
as up to noon to day the Coroner had not peen
notified of the occurrence.
We are desired to say that the Star OF TINS
evening is in error, in stating that the youth
who shot Birch was student of the Theology
cal Seminary.
SALT LAKE MAus-One of the best things
vet done by the administration OF President bu-
chanan has Just come to light in western pa
per. 1t appears that the Postmaster at lndepen-
dence, Mo-, has received an official notice from
the Postmaster General that the contract for
CARRYING the mails from thence to the Salt Lake
has been set aside and he is therefore ordered
to withhold the mails until further ORDERS
This is done by virtue of a right always reserved
bv the department, to rescind mail contracts on
giving due notice and one months pay to con-
tractors. In this case the contract was taken
by q company of Mormons at Salt Lake city,
who have already made several trips under 1t.
So general We're the complaints of the mails hay
ing beer violated and letters opened, especially
the correspondence of the government officials,
that it became quite evident these Mormon con-
tractors were mere tools of Brigham Young
The administration has also taken another step
toward insuring the faithful performance of the
mail service in Utah. A postmaster had, it
seems, been appointed for Salt Lake city, who
was not Mormon. His commission was for
warded to him, but never reached its destlna-
ton, and duplicate copies failed likewise. In
fact he was not recognized by Brigham Young.
He has now received his commission in person
at Washington, together with full instructions
as to his course, and will be sent out supported
by protecting military force.
