WHAT Is PKoPER TO BE WKrrrsN ox-A
NEw>PAPER.-A custom prevails to very
CREST extent Of writing the name Of the re.
son sending, or some other communication,
upon the margin Of newspaper, intending
that it shall be subject to paper postage
alone. The Post Office Department dirscss
whenever this is done and discovered, that
letter postage shall BE charged upon such
paper In order that ignorance may not be
alleged - plea in this case, we copy from
the instructions Of May 5. 1858, the follow.
ing instructions to Postmasters:
Z "Any seord or communication, whether BY
printing, writing, marks or signs, upon 8
newspaper, pamphlet, magazine OF other
printed matter, or upon the cover, or vr0p-
per thereof, other than the name and address
Of the person to whom it il to be sent, sub
jects the package to litter postage; and sucls
postage should be, like all letter postage;
pre- paid or The matter should not be mated.
If, however, it reaches the Office Of delivery
unpaid. and the party addressed shall refuse
to pay the letter postage thereon, further
proceedings shall be waived, there being no
co,scedlmept or attempt at fraud, and thH
package placed with the other refused matter
in the Office. A pen or pencil mark, made
for the sole puyposes Of 1ttr6cting the eye TO
q particular portion or article Of printed
matter, docs not subject suchiAattsr tS iettsr

THE SroRx.-The storm of last week did
damage in this State as we'll as in Illinois.
At Wapello, Louisa county, it blew down
TIVE brick buildings, upset one frame, and
tore away several out houses, tumbled down
a great number of chimneys, and still no
oAe was hurt. In Mahaska and Wapello
counties it was also severe. Mr.. Evans, of
Oskaloosa, informs the Keokuk Post that
hail stones averaging an inch in diameter
fell in Agency City, Dahlonega, Ottumwa,
Libertyville and Birmingham, for more than
an hour, breaking windows and killing pigs
and chickens in great numbers. child
was taken up by the wind and carried more
than two miles from the town of Dahlonega
without receiving any injury. In different
parts of the country fences were carried
bodily from ten to fifty yards; single rails
were carried nearly mile in some instances.
A number Of barns were moved from their
foundations and several housesunroofed.

TIE LATE TERRIBLE TohNApo.-Wec con-

duced By tile great Tornado that swept so
futiogsly through q portion Of Illinois on
Thursday last. Disaster and ruin mark its
track, and the total amount Of. the damages
done to towns, farm-houscs, crops and other
property maybe computed at hundreds Of
thoueanas of dollars. There has also been
some loss Of life. At Towanda, ON the Chi.
cago, Alton and St. Louis h, R., nearly ev-
cry building was prostratell, and three men
were killed, and near Williamsvilie farm
house was blown down and all ito inmates
live in number killed. The.village Of

TIE HERALD OF FREEDOM AND THE ENaI1su
SwINDIE.-The Herald Of Freedom, which
was the organ of Gen. Walker, and is now
supposed by some. to lean little towards the
Administration, thus speaks OF the English
swindle:
t"ltis needless to say that if that PROPOSE.
tipI Is passed, the Lecompton Constitution
will be defeated by the people. aud then we
are remansied back into our territorial condi-
ton. If the people have any chance to re-
pudiate the fraud, they will do so. They
will never vote to accept pro-slavery gov
eminent to DO organised under the Lecomp-
ton Constitution-they will sooner hang
every man that attempts It,"

DUBUQUE DEnooRAoY. Some Of die greedy

these days. What it amounts to, or how
long it is 70 last, does not appear. The prin-
cipol combatants are the new aud old POST
masters, Major Heath and Colonel Cookery.
The last pass By Heath closes in on Cookery
thus.

lake, widow. residing in Chester, Orange
county, N. Y, was arrested on the 9th, on
suspicion of poisoning several persons in
that village, and that night destroyed herr
self by taking arsenic. Before the suicide
she confessed that she had administered poi-
son at different times to Mrs. Fielder, who
died about two weeks since very suddenly.
She also confessed that she had administers
ed poison to Mr.. ]. B. TuthiIl, merchant.
who has recovered and is doing well. Mrs.
Charles Tuthill and Mrs. Derrick are now
very unwell, with every'symptom OF having
been poisoned, and Is Mrs. Westlake had

had eaten, it is supposed that they were also
intended by her as victims.

WHAT TIE SOUTHERN RADICALS 1HlNA.-
The Charleston Mercury says the passage Of
the English bill "will not allay agitation /;
and those who think that the Union is to be
preserved by such instrumentalitics will only
add another proof of the.vanity of their
timid and short-sighted policy" The Nor
es.y alss believes "the Douglas detection
win most probably annihilate at the next
Fall elections the Democratic adherents of
the South in the North, and present, in the
popular branch of the next Congress, an al
most united anti Southern sectional majori
against u.s." That opinion is well founded.
AxorHsR OFFICIAL OuTRAaE.-William
Weir, Of Pennsylvania, has been removed
from bis Office of District Attorney of the
Territory of Kansas, and C. Davis, now of
the Territory, but formerly of Albany, nom
innttsf In his stead. Mr.. Weir's removal is
attributed to his refusal to 60 back to the
Territory and urge the people to accept the
LtSoshpton Constitution. ".
DEATH OF ROBERT HARE.-Prof. Hare,
wsl known N al scientific circles in the
United States and Europe as one of the first
Chemists If his time, died at his residence
in Phiiadelphis, on Saturday morning last,
aged sesenty-seven years. Prof. Hare was
the inventor Of the Compound or Oxy Hy-
drcgrn Blow-Pipe, before he had attained
innsfs estate. He was elected TO the Chair
~ Chemistry in the University of Pennsyl-
vania, In 1918, and filed it with great credit
% himself and profit to the institution, for
nearly. twenty years, when age and increas-
Ing iAirnities compelled him to resign. Dr..
Hare's fame as a scientific man has lately
been some hat obscured BY his devotion to
Spirisualism but though permitting himself
!, to be carried away with that delrsion, his
previous services have given him an indis-
pufable title to the grateful remembrance OF
Me eoantrymen. He was an odd, sometimes,
uncongeniai, and occasionally . hard man
but led kindly and .uplight life.
