EDS. DAYTON EMPIRE.
Some one, signing 81. IL. r." in the
.Journalo Of the 10th, undertook, and, GER
tainly, most impotently, reply TO my late
article in your paper, respecting the
change In the Postoiiice In this town. IL Is
a poor yindicaton Of the lately guillotined
official, Martin--one more such would
amount to pretty nearly his annihilation.
The chief point 10 his article is an at
tempt TO do away with the damaging sus-
piclon, which was naturally suggested by
the exhibited decline in the revenues of the
office, as returned for the quarter ending
Jan. l, 1867, which was just Sl2 81; while
the return for the previous quarter had
been SCI 45. The defense says:
'In the quarterly report to which special
attention has been directed, Mr.. Martin or
dered no stamps from the Government, but
purchased what few that were needed from
a neighboring office; hence his report OF
Indebtedness was necessarily SMALL
Was this not, of itself, enough to Induce
change? Did he Guy the stamps, and 'odD,
when it Is known that lie was money
saaver, and under the regulations OF the
/ Department, was not required to purchase
stamps, which were to be had on call at
any moment, In the Dayton office? If he
bought, ,rhere2 If he bought, and with his
own money, did he shaue.the Government
In word, did he 5uy at all; or did he not
when exposed, resort to the dodge of max
li1g a return Of revenues, as purchosed
stamps, when it was neither purchase OF
loan, but simply so much from his owl
surreptitious resources, to lull suspicion an'
probable investigation.
The truth is. the Office had becu indiher
emily managed, and there was public ne
cessity for change. The petition for thi
change, which was numerously signed
was no clark lantern" trick; it was wei
known in the town to be in circulation. ant
signed by many of our leading people
whose ''status," here and mt Washington
,, was demonstrated by the very change it
self.
| As the matter now stands, the communi
Q ty, who do business at the office, are wei
satisfied Its duties are promptly dis
charged, and all works smoothly and to tn
r public advantage.
1t is to be hoped that " Brother Martin,
c who, in about three brief weeks, after h
c lost his official head, found consolation il

will not take this little aifa'c too much t

SERIOUS PLAY.-We made mention some
time ago that party, residing not many
miles from ou" city, had committed suicide
by hanging, andwe came very near having
to chronicle anothe~ of the same sort. a
young fellow living in the neighborhood
of the suicide concluded he would try how
it would go; proceeded to the woods; pro-
cured some elm bark; adjusted it around
his neck; threw the other end over limb,
and proceeded to suspend himself by pull
ing with his hands, calculating when it got
too tight to let 90, but he became fright
ened, it seems, and instead of letting go
pulled harder, and came deyilish near hang
ing himself good.
