SUPPOSED MURDER OF AN OHIO SOLDIER.
The body of soldier named Thomas o.
Lowe, belonging to the 7lst Ohio, was found
on the Ohip and Mississippi Railroad, over
which road his regiment passed on Satur-
day,near North Vernon, Indiana. An inquest
was held upon the body by Jas. M. May
field Justice Of the Peace, who yesterday
reported to this city that the jury had con-
cluded that Lowe was murdered from the
following circumstances: He was found on
the railroad track with several deep cuts in
his head and body, but no blood could be
discovered on the spot, and his hat was
picked up half mile from the body. 1t is
supposed that he was murdered for his
money. % n a a5 nft (

ANEW WAY TO CARRY LErrERs-AHEAD
OF THE MxILs.-The American Express
Company have inaugurated an important
arrangement by which letters can be trans
mitted through that Company's office, more
rapidly than by the old fashioned style.
The Company use for the purpose the reg
ular three cent stamped Government en-
velope, with the prepaid stamp of the Ex-
press Company on 1t, stating that the
carriage and delivery of the same is paid
to or from their offices in the States of New
York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Kentucky, In
diana, Michigan, Illinois, Wisconsin, Mis-
souri,, Iowa and Minnesota. By this ar
rangement important letters prepared too
late for the mails, or which could be sooner
dispatched by the express than by mail, as
orders, market, reports, bills of lading, &C.,
can now be transmitted with the assurance
Of rapid conveyance and prompt delivery.
No money or valuables are allowed in the
letters, and the company do not propose to
carry letters exceeding one-half ounce in
weight, and when such letters are found in
their charge they viii be dropped into the
Postoffice at once. The prepayment Of
excess weight by stamp viii not answer
the purpose, as under the postal laws no
letters except those inclosed in the Govern
ment envelope are allowed to be carried
outside the mails. The envelopes are now
ready and for sale at all the offices Of the
Company at the rate Of ten cents each.

THE CITY.

How the Ohio Lcgisinture BefuddIoti
Columbus Affairs.-The board
OF Education Suspended.

We were at one time of the opinion that
itwas calamity that the Legislature did
not adjourn sine die, but after mature re-
Election, we have concluded that 1t Is rather
fortunate that. they only took recess; for
it is quite certain that, If developments
continue to be made in connection with the
legislation Of the late session, dozen more
sessions will be necessary to clear up and
explain the blunders and stupidities of
the first. Almost everything that the
august assembly touched seems to have
become hopelessly muddled aud ridiculous
ly, complicated. In addition to amending
laws that were repealed years ago, passing
several bills on the same subject and for the
same purpose, upsetting State Courts and
snuffing out Town Councilsfor twenty days,
they passed a law regulating the common
schools of Columbus, by which the school
organization of the city is SO ,muddled as to
defy any attempt at explanation, The. po-
litical majority who passed the bill scarcely
pretended to comprehend what they were
legislating about, and would heed no expla-
nation or protest of the minority. and the
Abolitionists In this city who got up the
project were so voracious and greedy for
the paltry gain they could secure that they
didn't care how the schools would be effect
ed. 3 sta ,s,to.s.-. l..s-.sf s,.t tifg
The Board of Education of the city held
ameeting last night, at which the law was
considered. Some members entertained the
opinion that the new law did not affect
those members whose terms do not expire
for one and two years to come, while others
held that the entire Board was abolished.
If the latter view, which Is the most COM
mon one, is correct, then the Board was
abolished three weeks ago, for the bill
took effect "on its passage" and in this
view we have not now and have not had for
several weeks Board of Education in this
city. The members of the Board at their
meeting last night decided that under these
circumstances, they could do no business
legally, and make no appropriations with
out rendering themselves individually liza
BILE for the amount. The legal question in
volved in the affair was referred to the law
ycrs-for whose benefit, by the way, most o.
the legislation of the late session seems tc
have been enacted.

THE Cincinnati Enquirer comes to us with
an apology for the meagerness of its pages,
because of strike by Its printers. The
printers demanded the removal of the fore
man of the Office, with which the proprie-
tors could not with honor comply, and the
printers struck. It is the general opinion
among typos that the Enquirer printers ex-
ceeded the authority and violated the spirit
of the Unions charter, and therefore there
will be little difficulty experienced in get
ting new set of compositors. /

ONE of our Government officials just re-
turned from Peru, tells us that among the
first and most frequent inquiries made of
him about our public men was, whether he
knew or had ever seen the celebrated
American Chemist, DIR. J.C. AVER, of Low
ell. His remedies are found in every viii
lage from the elevated slopes of the Andes
down to the coast, and their remarkable
cures seem to attract even more attention
there than In this country. The sentiment
Of wonder at their effects, takes far deep
er hold on half civilized and superstitious
people than it does with us where the ra-
tionale of medical problems is SO much
more generally understood. No other
American has made himself so familiarity
known to the masses Of the people in for
eign countries or excited IN them so lively
an interest In himself as the Doctor has by
his skillful application of chemical science
to the treatment of disease.
That must be dull man who does not
feel some pride of country when he finds
among distant nations that he is already
known and welcome there, through the la
bors Of our Statesmen, Merchants and
Scholars, whose renown has become nation
al property, and consequently in somemeas-
ure his own. Whether DR.. Ayers reme-
dies do actually cure more than others or
not, they have secured the reputation of be-
Ing q God-send to those afflicted with dis

From Cairo and Below.

CAIRO, April 7th.-Confederate goods.
amounting to $4,9C0, consisting mostly Of
cotton and sugar, were sold here to-day by
order of the United States District Court.
1,S00 bales of cotton yet remain to be sold.

derson, mentioned in previous dispatch.
The Forsyth was released to-day and left
for Memphis. Several thousand dollars
worth of contraband goods were found in
her hold. The first clerk was held for ex-
animation.
The election returns indicate that Ham,
mock (Republican) is probably elected Cir
cult Judge of the 18th circuit by small
majority.
The Cairo news has been furnished with
an order issued by Brig. Gen. Buford, COM
manding the second division of FORESTS
cavalry, congratulating his troops on their
successes in the Kentucky campaign. He
praises their conduct during the attack on
the fort at Paducah; feelingly alludes to
the death of Col. Thompson, commanding
the third brigade.
He asserts that they silenced one gun in
the fort and compelled one of the gunboats
to withdraw from the action, The rebel
loss Is set down at ten killed AMI forty
wounded. The Federal loss at "a killed and
20 or 80 wounded. He concludes by in
forming his division that it is the intention
10 hold Western Kentucky.
