Capt. Van Vliet, United States Assistant
Quarter Master, has submitted to the War
Department reply to the charges recently
preferred against him, for alleged miscon-
duct in connection with the purchase of
mules for the army, and the Secretary of
War, after mature deiiberation, has decided
that the explanations and testimony render
any further notice of the charges unneees-
sary.
The POstmaster-Generalh has ordered of
G. F. Nesbit, of New York, contractor,
100000 of stamped envelopes, with the
new selEsealing Improvements. They will
be furnished TO the public at five cents per
one hundred more than charged for the
present patterns.
The statement contained in letter from
Camp Floyd, and extensively published
charging the Secretary of War with being
personally interested in the contrcctS with
Holiday and others for supplying -four for
the troops in Utah, is wholly destitute of

man, Esq, manager of the Bodiam Coal
Mines. would state that they have been in
the nabit OF running their boat with nut
coal, procured at the mine below Shawnee
town, at four cents per bushel, OF eighty
pounds, while for most of the year, Mr..
Kersteriuan has demanded seven cents for
bushels of Bodiam coal, containing but
seventy pounds. Ii the Bodiam Mines adj
he,e to a false-thoush it .e statute stand
ard weight of coal, and ask from twaty-
FIVE TO thirty per cent more for their coal
than other mines sell for, they have no right
to expect an Evansville or any other boat,
10 burn their coal. 1t is by close economy
in every department of the management Of
our boat, that she is enabled to put her rates
of freight so low Whatever we save in
fuel, we are enabled to deduct from freight
charges to merchants, and the lower these
are reduced the more business is brought to
the city, and she is enriched as much as II
the boat gave the money to Evansville coal
miners. 81
1t is not true that the Bowen "profssses
to support the interests OF Evansville at the
expense Of all other places" The local sd-
vantages-the capital and enterprise of
Evansville-can take care of her interests
without the Bowen striving to promote it at
the expense of other places The Bowen is
laboring for the common benefit Of all the
trade on the route.--her chief efforts are TO
increase the mutual intercourse and trade OF
all, and by increasing the aggregate sum,
she is convinced she is laboring more for
the permanent interests of Evansville, than
she could effect by any system Of exclusive
partiality and fayoritism. The merchants
Of Evansville do not shun an open and fail
competition with any place If they can't
sell as low and give az good measure as
others, they will abandon The field to theiI
rivals The Bodian Mines should adopt theiI
spirit and follow their example, and then
they will secure not only the Evansville hui
