z "Yoa are aware Of the petty taxts which
our domestics are in the habit Of imposing
upon everything purchased by them for the
use of the household. First in order Is the
"sou per pound" paid them by grocsrs,
butchers, bakers, &C., for their ctstom.-
This, however, is but a triHe in COMPARISON.
On rabbit, bought at two francs and fifteen
sous, the cook pockets the fifteen sous. For
each dish ordered from restaurat, the ser

Lave calculated that. over aud above h0r
wages, my cooks profits amount se at least
fifty cents day. Nor is she satisfied with
this. She has made nice little bargain
with my butcher, to the effect that when
she buys six pounds Of mutton or veal, .for
nse, the butcher is to add pound of sirloin
steak, for her. There is no use in changing
servant or butcher. They are oil thieves

MIlAS-The ejaculation of the city OF
Milan before the triumphant arms of the
French recalls the history Of that venerable
and classic city which gave Virgil an edu-
cation, and which still occupies the foremost
position Of the inland cities nf Italy.
Milan is a great and splendid city now,
and though for the last sixty years its popu-
lation has greatly fiuctuated, yet IL has
been in state OF progressive increase ever
since 1900. la 1905 it was estimated at
10000. Its population at present is about
10000. This city, though beseged forty
times, and forty times taken, and -four times
destroyed, still contains vast number Of
churches, colleges, nunneries and schools,

A Texas Tragedy.

The last act in Texas tragedy has Just
been completed at Houston, by the consign-
mcnt of one of the principal actors, Dr.
Grin d. Monroe, to the penitendary. 1t ap-
pears that in April, 1858, Monroe visited
his native town Of Norwich, Chenango
county, " Y, where he had a married sis
ter residing. lie induced this sister and her
husband to permit their daughter, young
girl, to accompany him to bis home in Texas,
representing himself as large land owner
in that State; and it was clearly shown
that during the voyage he attempted 20
seduce her, and succeeded, either then or
afterwards. Soon after reaching home, near
Houston, bis wife seems 20 have berome
aware of the STATE nf things existing be-
tween her husband and the GIRL and COM
menced against the latter n series of the
most inhuman prosecutions. She habitually Y
applied the most opprobious epithas To her,
and often beat aud tortured Der N an ex-
tremely oarbarous manner. depriving her at
the same time Of proper clothing and food.
Monroe himslt, it seems, sometimes loined in
this inhumah treatment of his vicaim, and
between them the poor girls life was render
ed so miserable that she was heard frequent
ly to threaten to put an cnd to 1t. Finally
she died suddenly, and post mortem ex-
animation of her remains discovered the
presence of a large quantity of cobalt in the
stomach, together with marks Of violence
about the neck, as if the girl had been frs;
poisoned and then strangled. The threats
which the victim had made against her own
life prevented capital conviction but Mrs.
Monroe, three or four months ago, was tried
and sent to the peritentiary for term OF
six years The doctor had fed before the
jury Of inquest had rendered q verdict bat
was captured some time afterwards, and las,
week his trial was concluded, and he was
sentenced to five years imprisonment in the
rerfentiary.

Ths Post Office.

LAWRENCE, X. T., June 1st, 1859.
Mn. EpITo.e - Learning that some
parties in this place feel aggrieved at the
change in the location of thespost Office,
and are circulating petition to the Pres
ident, rejecting upon our postmaster for
his removal of the Office, alleging that for
his own convenience and benefit, without
regard to the wishes of Others, and against
the interest Of the community, he has re-
moved the Office from the business part
Of the city, and from central location,
I give the following reasons why their
charges do not seem to be we'll taken.
For, First, 1t is now in the best building
in town for business purposes. Second,
IL accommodates, much better, the peo-
pie of west lawrence. Third, II is on
the principal cross street, but two doors
from the main street. Fourth, It's nearer
all the public houses than before, except
the Commercia Hotel, whose proprietors
are the main movers in the petition afore.
said, and thus accommodates the travel.
ing public better. Fifth. 1t is nearer
both printing Offices, which are on the
same cross street, but on the opposite side
of the main street. Sixth, 1t is next door
to the Express and Stage offices, and in
the same building with them. Seventh,
Ii is much more convenient of access than
before, and less than square from its
former location.
These were good and strong reasons for
change, and no candid man can take
reasonable exception to the removal OF
the Office, and numerous persons, whom
DR.. Huson consulted before be made the
change, concurred with him, as to its pro.
prieiy. Hence, there is no necessity OF
raising hue and cry for sinister purposes,
when the public suffers nothing

the Palmyra district, P. IL. Townsend for
Willow Springs and Lecompton district,
Edward S:okes, Of Bloomington, for the
Marion and Clinton district. =
There were but few persons in attend
ance. except the delegates, and The meet.
ing passed of without single burst Of
enthusiasm. Mr.. P. H. Townsend having
no opposition, it was moved tina: he be
nominated unanimously. Judge Wake
field, the President, in putting the vote
urged ''all to vote, and to vote loud. >
The majority report on the apportion.
ment was objected to as unfair towards
