To the Public,

take this expeditions mode Of replying to
multitude of letters containing orders for A.
Ladd's Paris Prize Piano Fortes, and which with
my present supply am not as yet able to fill
Since the astonishing news came across the At.
lantic that Messrs Ladd l. Co. had brought their
Piano Fortes in competition with three hundred
American and European instruments at the
Worlds Fair at Paris; and had been pronounced
the best in the Exhibition by the Judges, the
whole working material OF their immense es-
Enlistment has been brought into requisition in
vain to supply the enormous demand for these
incompatible instruments. But am Just in re-
ceipt Of letter from Messrs Ladd & Co., ap-
pricing me that after the lst of June they will
be able to supply all orders promptly, however
large and extensive they may be, as they have
quadruped the size OF their former very large
establishment. To those requiring further in
formation with regard 70 their Instruments, I
would say that am prepared to send books by
mail containing the account of this great victory
at Paris diagrams of their different STYLES of
Pianos, prices, &c. l am also agent for
Woodward 4 Browns, and T. Gilbert & Co.'S
Eolian attachment Pianos Mcssrs. w. & B.

for superior Pianos exhibited at the various
American Fairs and Exhibitions within the last

Mas. MCLEAN, rHE MeRMoN.-Mrs Mclean
the woman whose husband recently avenged
her seduction by taking the life Of Pratt, the
Mormon elder has written letter to the Van
Buren, (Ark.) lntelligsncer, which only proves
the depth OF her delasion and the hopeless ma

adherence TO foolish faith, which has destroyed
her domestic peace, and in regarding the worth

their young lips to utter blasphemous nonsense,
which she called prayer. She absconded from
her husbands house, and finally stole her of
spring that she might take them to Utah. Her
insanity is perfect and absolute. She writes in.
ssohercnty and absurdly. She compares Elder
Fratt with our Savior, and admits that she
washed his feet and combed his hair. She

RAILROAD FAREs.-A case was tried in the
Union Circuit Court, Illinois, at its recent term
involving the right Of a conductor Of a passen-
ger car to put passenger off the car between
stations for refusing to pay his fare when deman-
ded. The facts of the case were in substance
about this:
The plaintiff johnson, went aboard of the eve.
ming train. OF the passenger cars of the |. G. r.
K. at Jonesboro station intending to go to Ash
ley, 1t was dark when he got aboard. Short
ly after the train left .Jonesboro station, John
son was waited on by the conductor and the
fare demanded which was a dollar and fifty five
cents. johnson drew from his pocket-book
hundred dollar bill on the bank of Illinois, and
told the conductor that he would have to change
the bill for him and take the fare out of it-that
he had no other money but the bill. The con-
ductor told him that he would OF change bill
of that denomination in the night time. john
son then remarked to the conductor that when
he got to Ashley he would try and get the bill
changed and pay his fare. The conductor told
him if that was all the money he had, he had
better get off. to which johnson assented. The
train was then stopped, and johnson got Off
At the time johnson got off the car, the train
was between one half mile and a mile from the
station at which the pla intff went aboard the
car. Upon these iacts tue court Judge Parrish
presiding heidi
"lst.- That the conductor was not bound to
change the plaintiffs bill although it might have
been genuine.
2d.-Thnt the offer of the bill demanding
return of SOS, AS was not e. tender of the fare
nor an offer to pay it.
3d.-That upon the demand ofthe fare and
the refusal of the plaintiff to pay it, the conduc
tor had the right to expel the plaintiff from the
cars using no more force than was necessary
tor that purpose.
4th.-That when a person goes aboard pas
senger car without having paid his fare in ad-
vance and the same is demanded by the con-
ductor of the train and refusal to pay it when
SO demanded the conductor is not bound to
take him to the next station but may expel him
