New AND IMPORTANT RULE IN BANK
RUPToY.-Judge Trigg, of the United
States Court has made the following rule
to apply to all Bankrupt Courts in this
State:
1t being desirable that uniform prac-
tice should be established as far as
practicable, for securing the fees of the
officers of this Court in bankruptcy
cases, and the expenses incurred for
publication and otherwise, and to avoid
frequent notices to the bankrupt to make
deposits for the same, it is
Ordered, That with all petitions filed
after this date, there shall be deposited
800 to secure said costs; and
That all petitioners in bankruptcy,
who have fled their petitions in this
court, and have not deposited the sum Of
$l00, are hereby ordered to deposit a
sum sufficient, in addition to the amount
already deposited, to make an aggregate
of 500; and further, that no further &C.
| ton will be taken in such cases until
this is done:
Provided, However, that the first
nbttluR vi DO uCiu III thC
cases in which warrants have been
served, and that examinations of bank
rupts and other witnesses may be had in
such cases; and provided, further, that
nothing herein shall interfere with the
rights and duties of the Register, Clerk,
Marshal or Assignees in said cases last
mentioned.
His further ordered, That in no case
shall a discharge in bankruptcy be
granted until all the costs in such cases
are paid.
This is done because it has been found
in many instances that $50 would not
cover the necessary expenses, and good
bonds, especially in remote counties,
could not be obtained for the additional
$50. Wherever the expenses of securing
discharge from debt fall short of 500,
the amount remaining on hand will be
retained to the party by whom paid.
This rule does not make a discharge cost
more than before, but simply requires the
second $50 to be money instead of an
Endorsed note.

ROBBERY OF THE SOUTHERN EXPRESS
OFFICE AT DRESDEN, TENN. A few
nights ago the office of the Southern Elk.
press Company at Dresden, Weakly
county, was entered by burglars, who
blew open the safe with gunpowder and
robbed it of $500 in currency. Suspi-
cion fell upon a'man named Hagan, who
had been lettering about Dresden, and
who mysteriously disappeared simulta-
neously with the robbery. He was ar
rested in Louisville, in possession OF a
large sum of money, and held for a requi.
sition from Governor Brownlow. This is
the second safe robbery in Offices
of the Southern Express Company in
West Tennessee, during the past three
months, and evinces seeming careless
ness on the part of some of the employees
inconsistent with the strict business
principles prevailing in the general
management Of that corporation. At
jackson burglars were allowed to not
only rob, but carry away the safe, OBJ
tanning it from under the very noses of
the watchmen in the building, The
Dresden affair was perpetrated with
equal ease, and in both cases if the ras-
calls had been as good at hiding as at
stealing, the Company would not have
had even the poor graf fcation of know.
ing where the money went.

Hon. W. L. McMillen.

The merited and sharp reproof
which this distinguished gentleman
administered to General Buchanan in
the House on Monday deserves to be
telegraphed throughout the land.
1t was characteristic of the man
fearless, just, and uncOmpromising.
The presence of such a man in the
House is a host in itself to resist the
unwarrantable usurpations which Gen
eral Buchanan has such fatal facility
of making.
General Buchanan knows that a
little finger laid wrongfully upon the
least of the rights defended by w. l..
McMillen will be resented as a
chivalrous, honorable, heightened gen
item an only knows how to resist, and
be hurled back with a blow which
would be strengthened by the arm of
every loyal man in the whole North.
He can aot trihe with such a MANN.

We regret to notice the retiring Of
DRAM. A. southworth from the Be
publican. As a brilliant, terse, and
nervous writer, a judicious editor
wise statesman, safe counselor, and
a bold and able party leader. Dr.
Southworth has not his equal in
Louisiana. To his prudent and wise
management, his untiring industry, and
his generous liberality the Republican
party owes largely its brilliant triumph
in the last campaign. Under his con
duct the Republican newspaper rose
rapidly in public favor and influence,
and decided the success of the cam
paign. We do not know single man
whom the Republican party can so lily
spare from the ranks of it's leaders.
Our best wishes accompany him, and
we hope to see his labors rewarded
and his usefulness increased by his
promotion to a sphere of still wider
influence. .-... n-r
We welcome to the editorial tripod
a gentleman so widely and favorably
known as his successor General Lee.
Under his supervision we believe that
the republican will grow in influence
and prosperity.-N o. Adrocate.
