DoDGE DoN'r DOUGH OvER.-We regret to
learn that Dodge acted in a very mean and par.
simonous spirit in the matter of sustaining
Gen Morgau's campaign paper at Burlingt ton
Dodge has amassed untold wealth IN career
of twenty one years OF Office holding, and he
owes much of his success to the democratic
press of the State; yet now he returns, rolling
u paper conducted by one OF the ables5 editors
in the party. Morgans talents are far Superior
TO those of Dodge; his services to the party
have been greater; and while he has sacrificed
time and health and many years of laborous
effort for the cause, Dodge has basked in luxu-
nv aud ease, enjoying the favor of the party
and rotating through an uninterrupted round of
Offices of high honor and emolumert. To-day,
Morgan, having sacrificed his all in the cause Of
tls party, is poor and unable establish aud
carry on Democratic paper with that efficiency
to which his zeal prompts him. Dodge returns,
after twenty one years of Office holding, during
which he has received more than hundred
thousand dollars, and although he is himself a
candidate for the highest Office in the gift OF the
people Of Iowa, he refuses to contribute the
necessary aid to sustain Democratic press in his
own city.
II the conductors of the Democratic press OF
Iowa will tamely submit to this, ard still sing
peans oil adulation to Dodge, they deserve the
contempt and injustice With which he treats
them.-Gate City.

DEATH IN JAIL OF Son OF REV. JOHN n
MAFFir.-A few days ago, a forgery TO small
amount vas perpetrateh on the banking house
of W. Il. Barksdale 4 Co., of this city, and
three persons were suspected OF participating in
the crime. Among the number vas Francis A.
Matiit, who is said to be, and who has acknowl
edged himself son Of John Newland Matiit
the eloquent preacher, who dourished in the
West some years ago. After The forgery was
discovered, souug Maifit was found Oh the other
side of the river, and was coaxed across in or
der TO be arrested. He declared himself inno-
cent OF the allegations, but as he had been liv
ing rather fast and dissipaied life on the river,
between 81. Louis and New Orleans, his protes-
tations were not received with great degree OF
credence. Els examination, with that of his
companions, was to have come off in q day or
two, but on Sunday night, in, his cell, he was
seized With an apoplectic fiji, and died at
o'clock list. Louis Republican.

Son OF Rev. JOHN NEwLASD MArFIr II
JAIL FOR CouNrERFElrING.-A few days since
three men were arrested in this city on the
charge Of counterfeising bank notes, aud for
circulating spurious coin. Among the number
is Francis A. Mafiit, who. we are informed
both by gentlemen from New Orleans and the
prisoner hilnsef-is a son of the famous John
n. Mafiit, who twenty-five years ago made the
Methodist pulpit ring with his eloquence, ana
who led such chequered and eventfal life,
and died with praises, curses and tears heaped
upon him. This Francis A. Mafit, we learn, is
the Youngest son of three brothers. One died
in Cincinnati a year or two since, one is the
brave and gallant Lieut.. Mafiit of the o. s. Navy,
while the third and Youngest son, who was the
pet of the family, is--the counterfeiter. We
visited Mafit in his cell last evening, and learned
from him that he had been for some time an
officer on one OF the New Orleans boats. He
protests his innocence of the charges against
him, but others, who know him well, say he is
hardened in crime and dissipation. Mafit is
apparently man of intelligence. He conversed
with us freely and seemed deeply interested
when the names Of his father and brother were
mentioned. His examination and trial will
probably take place this week.-ISt Louis

from this city, was murdered last evening by an

lily behind him and broke his skull with stick
OF cord-wood. 1t appears that Ballard. who
was the owner of an extensive coal bed, had
leased shaft to Farrell, and dispute originated
about the rent. Ballard levied on coal got out
by Farrell for his pay, which highly incensed
him and he threatened to take Billiards. life
Accordingly yesterday evening Farrell came up
behind Ballard, who was standing near the coal
mine, and dealt him a deadly blow over the
head with "a billet of wood. Farrell fed before
any attempt was made to arrest him, and though
diligent search has since been made he has not
yet been found. The wounded man survived
only about seven hours. He was upwards Of
so years of age and leaves a wife and four or
five children. His residence was near the river,
and was familiarly known as 'Ballard's Land
