Adyertising-A Liberal Offer.

A few days since we received the following
letter:
The Proprietor Glasgow Times" Glasgow, Mo-:
We enclose you herein, an advertisement for
insertion in your paper; provided you agree to the
following terms, viz:
For insertion for 3 months, on the I'd or Sd
page, $500.
If you accept Of the foregoing, please to send
copies Of your paper. An editorial notice is at
tached to he.advertisement, which you will please
give place in your editorial matter, in the event
Of your accepting of our advertisement.
Very Respectfully,
The advertisement enclosed would have made
near half column, and it would have been well
worth eighteen dollars to publish it three months,
to say nothing Of three dollar editorial Adver-
tlsement," done up 10 order. We have laid at
least dozen equally as liberal propositions un-
der the table, in the last four weeks. Some of
the same advertisements declined, we see in the
columns of many of our contemporaries, to which
we have no objection, but we hope they get at
least the promise of more than was offered u.s.
We are advancing, rather than lowering our rates,
and while we are anxious for business, we wish
it distinctly understood we have long since ceased
to pay our board and work for nothing.

Randolph Fair.

We had the pleasure Of attending the last days
exhibition Of the Randolph Fair. There was an
immense crowd of people-over three thousand
present, and very excellent show of stock, among
which old Howard stood A No. 1, and, as a nat
aral consequence, brought away fair share Of
silver ware.
We are only able to give the awards Of the first
day, having relied on the Secretary to furnish us
with history Of the other days. Why he failed
we are not able to say, and only mention the sub
ject by way of apology to our subscribers there,
several of them new ones-who were promised a
full report in this issue.
We are plea-ed to learn from the officials of the
Society, to whom we make our Acknowledgements
for courtes,es, that they entirely relieved Of
debt, and have sufficient surplus to make desi-
rable and needed improvements in the way of
Seats. Stands, &c.
For good time-clever men-pretty women,
and all that sort of thing, the Randolph Fairs are
without an equal. Put us down for full scholar
next season.

Washington Items.

Senator Douglas leaves this city on Monday
morning, passing through Harrisburg at noon
reaching Pittsburgh at midnight, and speaks in
Columbus, o., at two O'Clock Wednesday after
noon, also in Cincinnati on Thursday evening.
and will reach Chicago on Saturday.
The Government has been advised by Gen.
Harvey of his proceedings in taking possession of
the Island of San Juan, and the steamer Of TO-
morrow will convey 10 him reply. From what
has here TRANSFERRED it is reasonable 10 infer the
position of the administration admits of no COM
promise, IT being fully satisfied that the island be-
longs to the United States.
The Secretary Of the Interior was informed
certain memorlalists in IN St. Louis had askedthat
the public lands of Kansas and Nebraska be
withheld from private entry after the close of
the public sales. The President is of the opin-
ion that the law inves.s him with no power to
grant such request.
Thu State Department has been informed by
Mr.. Wright, Minister 10 Berlin, that it is not true

A Singular Marriage.

Our readers will recollect the killing Of DR..
beddo, by Daniel Hutchinson, in Brunswick,
not long since; the committsl of Hutchinson to the
Fayette Jail; his subsequent indictment BY the
Grand Jury, and his re-committal to await trial.
1t seems Hutchinson was engaged to be married
to Miss Maggie MacHome, young lady whom,
many OF our citizens viii recollect as having once
been an assistant teacher in our Female Seminary.
and that il was stated be went 10 Brunswick. ms,
previous TO the killing, 10 clear up some matters
which it is not Necessary to mention, to the end
that he might marry and re-settle himself in that
place. The difficulty which led to the kiIIino Of
DR.. Beddo, grew out Of these matters, and he
went to Jail, as before stated. Last Thursday
evening, Mss MacHome arrived here on the
steamer "Perry," and Immediately proceeded TO
Fayette. On Sunday morning at the residence
OF Sheriff McCrary, Mr.. Hutchinson and Miss
MaeHome were united in marriage by Rev. W.
T. Lucky, and she left for Brunswick the sam.
evening.
Twas singular marriage, and whatever per
sons may think or say Of it, all will admire ,be
true devotion of the woman to the man Of he,
choice. But few women would have taken III.
step under The circumstances, and fewer mer
would have followed the woman of their choice
TO the prison, and united their destinie, with her
had she been similarly situated.

Later from the N1ines..$1.55A in
Gold Arrived.

Jones & RusselPs Express arrived at Leaven-
worth city on Wednesday, from Denver City,
bringing 81, 554 in gold dust on consignment.
The Rocky Mountain Ne,rs contains the follow
ing items of interest: In another column we give
the result of an assay of quartz rock giving re-
suit of ten and half ounces of gold, sixteen and
half ounces of silver, or over $500 10 the ton
of rock. The specimens assayed were taken from
the Gregory and Bates leads, soon after they were
opened, and 1t was doubted by many whether
they contained any gold whatever. We exam
ined them before they were taken from the mines,
and could discover no gold with powerful glass.
Since that time hundreds of tons have been taken
out, in which gold is plainly perceptible, and We
have no doubt il will yield 1000 to the ton Of
rock.
From Henderson s. Gridley's clam, on the
Gregory lead, single pan of dirt taken out on
Tuesday evening, yielded 40 pennyweights of
gold, and the hard quartz in the same pan was es-
tImated to contain between five and ten penny
weights-worth 80 cents to the pvt.
McLan & Co., are taking out from their lead
ovor $50 per day to the man. Many other lead
clnims are doing equally well. In the gulch dig
gings miners are realizing from $40 to S2o each
per day.
In the st. Vrain and Jackson diggings, reports
are equally cheering. From South Platte and the
Park the reports continue fattering.

ScHooL.-The fall session Of Glasgow Female
Seminary opened on Monday, with between sixty
and seventy scholars. This is fattering OPEN
ing, and We doubt not, in short time, the capaci-
ty OF the building will be equalled. The grounds
about the Seminary and Boarding House have been
greatly improved, and when finished, will be all
that could be desired. The principal has excel
lent accommodations for limited number of ad-
ditional boarders. We know of no better point,
In every respect, for the education Of young la
dies. See Advertisement.

ginning to excite alarm the aspirants FOR the

idation in the Douglas camp here. They fear no

and went up 10 Quincy. The thief sold the horse,

TEXAS CATTLE FEvER.-A great many cattle
have died in Buchanan county, with disease
known as the Texas Fever. The papers say that
droves of Texas cattle passing through that sect

Southern cattle disseminate it, something ought to
be done to prevent their passing through our State
