EXTENSIVE MAIL RoBBERIEs- OF
THE OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES of the most bold,
extensive, and long continued mail rob-
berries, which throws in the shade all that
have hitherto been ferreted out in this State,
has just been brought to light, and the
culprits secured, together with proof that
will secure conviction.
For some time back, letters sent from
here to Saltwater, Marine, Taylcr's Falls,
&C., and from Taylors Falls eastward, have
been missed, and while some never reached
their destination, others were riAed, resealed,
and sent on.
To detect the robbers, Mr.. Terry of this
Post Office, and Granville M. Stickney,
Sheriff of Washington county, have been
unremitting in exertions, which have at
length proved successful.
Yesterday George Hooker, a youth en-
gagged as clerk in the Saltwater Post Office,
and another young man named Erasmus D.
Easton, were arrested, and lodged in the
Ramsey county Jail, to await examination
before United States Commissioner Geo.
w. Prescott, Esq, on Friday next, charged
with having committed the robberies in the
Post Office at Saltwater.
These two young men slept together, and
are jointly charged with the crime. Hooker
is mere boy, a bright, honest-looking and
frank young fellow, who denies his guilt
positively, and says Easton abused his con-
fdence and alone committed the depreda-
tions. The people of Saltwater believe him
to be innocent of the crime.
Easton is undoubtedly guilty, and to a
great extent. His trunk, which was at
Saltwater, was opened and found full of
opened letters, and the wayAbills which are
sent with packages. Numbers of them
were postmarked st. Paul. The whole mail
of December 10Th seemed to have been
taken Esston was in this city when this
took place, having come over on Monday,
and found employment at bis trade here,
where he was when arrested. Letters and
way-bills were found on bis person when he
was taken! He is young man of about
twenty-three years of age, with sinister
and down-cast expression of countenance.
Altogether this is one of the most bold and
extensive mail robberies ever committed in
the State, and the recklessness of the par
ties in not destroying the evidence of crime
is incredible.
Mr.. Stickney deserves much credit for his
exertions in ferreting the matter out, and
promptness in making the arrest, when sus-
picion was firmly fixed on the parties sup.
posed to be the guilty ones.

CHARGE OF MuRAT At EYLAU.
BY !. T. HEADLLI.

1t is at Eylau that Murat always APP
pears in his most terrible aspect Til,
battle. fought in mid winter in 1907, was
the most important and bloody one that
had then occurred. France and Russia
had never before opposed such strength
to each other, and complete victory on
either side would have settled the fate Of
Europe; Bonaparte remained in possess
ion of the field, and that was all; no vic
tory was ever 50 like defeat.
The field of Eylau was covered with
snow, and the little ponds that lay scat
tered over it were frozen sufficiently hard
to bear the artillery. Seventy-one thou
sand men on one side and eighty-fye on
the other, arose from the from field on
which they slept the night Of February
without tent or covering, to battle for "A
continent. Angereau on the left was Ut
terly routed in the morning. Advancing
through a snow storm so thick he could
not see the enemy, the Russian cannon
moved down his ranks with its destruc-
tive fire, while the Cossack cavalry which
were ordered to charge came laundering
on, almost hitting the French infantry
with their long lances before they were
visible through the storm.
Hemmed in and overthrown, the whole
division, composed of 10000 men, with
the exception of 1900, we're captured or
slain. Just then, the snow storm clear
ing up revealed to Napoleon the peril TO
which he was brought, and he immedi-
ately ordered a grand charge by the I'm
perial Guard and the whole cavalry
Nothing was further from Bonaparte's
wishes than the bringing of his reserve
into the engagement at this early stage
Of the battle, but there was no other re-
source left him.
Murat sustained his high reputation on
this occasion, and proved himself for the
hundredth time worthy of the great con-
fidence Napoleon placed in him. Moth
ing could be more imposing than the bat
tie field at this moment. Bonaparte and
the empire trembling in the balance

cavalry to save them. Seventy squad

men, began to move over the slope, with

SOUTHERN SAYNGs.-That the his
tory of the times may be complete, we
give few minor items CLEANED from
Southern exchanges. Many of our Nor
thern ministers have uttered their senh-
ments upon the war, and it is fair to let
the Southern divines be heard. Rev. c.
c. Gillcpsi, D. d., editor Of the New
Orleans Adoocate, a religious paper, in
his issue of May has a comparison be-
tween Jeff Davis and President Lincoln.
He says;
Davis is the very soul Of courage,
honor, chivary; Lincoln is a cowardIy
sneak. In the midstof the present storm,
Davis is calm, cool, generally cheerful,
comprehensive in observation, rigidly
keeping his own counsel; Lincoln is fill
ed with abject fear. drunk half the time,
occasionally foohshly iacetious, whistling
to keep his courage up.
The editor of the Texas Adeocats,
Rev. J. C. Carnes, D. D., in bis paper Of
May ,, has an exalted opinion Of Texan
proves. He says:
I'VE learn with surprise that the peo-
pie in other states are wondering how
things are working in Texas. Our re-
ply is-beautifully. Everything is all
right. The opinion is universal among
white and black, that Texas, unrestrain-
ed by divine grace, can whip any two Of
the n orthern states"
BY referring to the census returns, it
will be seen that Texas has Of ablebod-
led men between l8 and 45 years of age,
"a 900, while New York aud Pennsyl-
vania have l ,489,OO0-sixteen to one
With all respect to Rev. DIR. Carnes, we
submit that with no hindrance from Di-
vine grace" the. Texans will have to step
lively and show considerable muscle to
whip under such circumstances.

the snow storm far in font, a smile pass
ed over his countenanct.
The earth groaned and trembed as
they passed, and the tabers above the
dark and angry mass below looked like
the foam of sea wavs as it crossed the
deep. The rattling ofiheir armor and
the mufiled thunder of heir tread drown
ed all the roar of the bl;tle, as with firm,
set array, and swift, stiady motion, they
bore down with terrific front IN the foe.
The shock of that immense host was
like a falling mountain, and the front line
of the Russian army went down like
frost work before it Then commenced
a protracted fight of hand D hand and
sword to sword, as in the caalry action
at Eckmuhl. The cIashing oksteel was
like the raging Of countless hammers,
and horses and riders we're blAded in
wild confusion together; the Russian re-
serve was ordered up, and on the9 Mu-
rat fell with his fierce horsemen, crBhing
and trampling them down by Thousands.
But the obstinate Russians disdsined to
fly, and rallied again and again, 70 that
it was no longer cavalry chargingpn in
fantry, but squadrons Of horse galbping
through broken hosts that, gathering in
to knots, still disputed with unparalleled
bravery the red and white field.
1t was during this strange fight that
Murat was seen to perform one of thoie
desperate deeds for which he was so re,
nowned. Excited to the highest pitch Of
passion by the obstacles that opposed him,
be seemed endowed with tenfold strength,
and looked more like a superEuman be-
ing treading down helpless mortaIs, than
an ordinary man. Amid the roar Of ar
tillery and rafting of musketry, and fall
ing of saber strokes like lightning about
him, that lofty white plume never once
went down, while ever and anon il was
seen glarng through the smoke of battle,
the star q hope in Napoleon, and show
ed that bis ''right arm" was still uptifted
and striking for victory. He ragged like
a loosed lion among the foe; and his eyes
always terrible in battle, burned with in
creased idster, while hf- ,.rars ssal stv-,,':,-
voice, heard above the turmoil Of strife,
was worth more than thousand trump
cts 10 cheer on his followers At length,
seeing a knot of Russian soldiers that for
a long time had kept up deyouring fire
on his men, he wheeled his horse and
drove in full gallop upon their leveled
muskets. 4 few of his guards that new
allowed that white plume to leave their
sight charged after him. Without wait
ing to count his foes he seized his bride
in his teeth, and with his pistol in one
hand and his drawn sword in the other,
burst in headlong fury upon them and
scattered them as if a hurricane had swept
by. Murat was a thunderbolt on that
day, and the deeds that were wrought by
him will furnish themes for the poet and
the painter,

that he did not come here TO be shot
but TO shoot that if there was to be a

it, and that he preferred TO finish up the
fighting before making his speech. No
