send Immediately hoop skirt" Tho
minister was completely dumbfounded. 1t
was = strange epistls for him to receive.
but there was the superscription, Rev.
--, az plain as could be. In the
course Of the day, however, the mystery
was cleared up, and it appeared that the
fair correspondent had indited two letters.
one to the reverend gent. requesting his
presence to tie the marriage knot and the
other to female friend, enlarging on the
anticipated occasion, and requesting her
services in procuring that highly useful ar
ticle. a hoop skirt. By some hOcus-pocus
the letters were placed in the wrong enve-
lopes. but luckily the rightful owner cx-
changed letters, and the minister and hoop
skirt were both there From the Ban

NWe have been shown an ingenious in.
vention by gentleman Of this county. in
the way Of self-acting carcoupling.-the
invention of Mr.. l.. Rawson of Quincy. to
whom patent has recently been issued.
The objec: Of the invention. is to do away
with the danger incurred in coupling and
uncoupling cars as now performed with the
pin and link With this coupling it will
only be necessary to run the cars together
to attach them securely to each other. with
out the aid Of the brakeman thus train
of any number Of cars can be coupled simp-
ly backing up. 1t would seem that in this
respect the invention is all that could be
asked but this is no. all the coupling
is 50 arranged that in case Of any accident
by the locomotive. or any car in the train
being thrown from the track, the coupling
must necessarily become disepgaged. allow
ing the remainder Of the train to remain
safely on the track. From a careful exam
ination Of the model shown US, it would
seem that the coupling cannot fail to attain
this desirable object. In cases where q car
is to be uncoupled, it can be done without
incurring the risk Of going between the
cars Cor the purpose.
Mr.. Jas. Clizbee, who is the assignee Of
one half of the patent. Informs US that he
shall endeavor soon to get permission to
fally ties. the invention On the NJ. S. d n.
|. X. K. He asserts tha. the cost Of this
coupling will be but little, if any, greater
than that now in use. Should it prove uT-
on testing it, to perform as is claimed for
it. it cannot fail to be useful invention

Constitution Of the United States. Kansas is,
therefore, as much Slave State as Georgia or

slares, into the common Territories belonging
equally to all the States of the Contederacy, and
to have il protected there under the Federal
Constitution Neither Congress nor Territorial
Legislature nor any human porer has any au-
thority to annul or impair this vested right"
