STALL be restored forthwith. The third
section authorizes The president TO fill va
eanci"s which may happen during the re-
cess ct the senate by reason of death or
resignation, by granting omissions
which shall expire at the end OF the next
Session Of The senate. If no appointment,
by and with the advice and consent of the

The FrancOnia Murder.

We saw statement last week that
Sam'l Mills, the Franconia murderer had
been arrested in Illinois. We feared it was
a mere rumor, but subsequent advices seem
to indicate that this inhuman wretch has
really been caught. The Boston Journal
says that Governor Smyth of New
Hampshire issued requisition Wednes-
day upon the Governor of Illinois for the
delivering up of Mills, the Franconia
murderer, now supposed to be in Jail in
Galena. 1t seems he was captured by the
sheriff of that county, and identified from
descriptions forwarded by a Boston detec-
tive. The officers in the vicinity of the
murder had spent all their exeriions in
pursuit of the criminal without success,
when professional detective was en-
ployed. Mills was arrested while work
ing in the lead mines at Galena.

Willis refusing, they took off his shoes

a reduction of pay of their employees of

manufacturing interest i'll general. a large
number of factory people are already out
