New AND VALUABLE NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
tain Eggleston, of Giles, has, in company
with few other gentlemen, undertaken to
open short and very desirable route Of
travel from the Virginia and Tennessee
railroad to the Greenbrier White Sulphur
Springs. These gentlemen are preparing
for the Immediate construction of fine
turnpike leading from New River bridge,
on the Virginia and Tennessee railroad,
down New river thirteen miles to New
River White Sulphur Springs thence
through Giles county to the Salt Pond, on
PETERS Mountain, eight miles; thence to
the Salt Sulphur Springs, in Monroe, TWEEN
,ty-three miles; thence to the Greenbrier
White, twenty-four miles. Total distance,
sixty-eight miles. A fine hotel will be
opened at the New River depot, on the rail
road, for the accommodation of travellers.
A magnificent establishment awaits them
at the New River White; and at the Noun
tain Lake or Salt Pond a company Of Ten
nesseeans have purchased large tract, on
which they propose to erect at once first
class hotel, with surroundings improved to
the greatest advantage. 1t is designed to
have the route ready for line Of stages in
time for the opening of the watering season
next June. This will be found the shortest
accessible route for travellers from the
South and Southwest to the Greenbrier
White Sulphur, while the scenery, espe-
cially on the lower half Of the line, cannot
be surpassed for sublimity and beauty.
We hail the approach Of this most desirable
improvement.-Monroe County Register.

INTERESTING TO LIQUOR DEALERs-1M-
PoRTANT DEcIsIoN.-0tice Internal ReUe-
nle, Washington, October %, l8GS.-Sir,-
Your letter Of the 2lst instant, in relation
to the accounts and signs Of wholesale
liquor dealers, has been received.
In reply have to say that the books
prescribed in section As of act of July 20,
1868, must be kept by all liquor dealers
who come within the definition of whole
sale liquor dealers. They will not, how
ever, be required to enter in detail any sale
Of spirits of less quantity than is required
by section 81 of said act to be stamped
that is to say, "packages of more than five
gallons" Sales of smaller quantities and
amounts may be entered each day in the
aggregate.
To your question referring to wholesale
liquor dealers signs, required by section Is
of said act, I can only say that the require
ment seems to be plain and positive, and
there appears to be no way of escape for
any liquor dealer who has placed himself
within the category of wholesale liquor
dealer except by paying the penalty. The
law makes no distinction between the
classes of such dealers, and no power has
been conferred on me to make any, or to
relieve any person from the plain require
ments of the law. ........ ..........
Very respectfully,
Z. A. ROLLINS, Commissioner.
Leaois Clephane, Esq, Collector, Washing
ton, D. g.
The latter paragraph is in answer to the
question whether hotels whose sales at their
bars made them wholesale liquor dealers
should have the sign.

BABES IN TIE WooDs.-A correspondent
of the Portsmouth IN. H. Times says that
the town of Atkinson was thrown into ex-
citement on Monday afternoon by the an
,nouncement that two little children of Ru-
fus Morse, aged three and four and one-half
years, were missing since early that morn
ing, and though dozens of people had
searched for them several hours, no trace
could be found of the missing babes. Be
fore dark nearly all the inhabitants OF At
kinson were engaged in the search young
and old, rich and poor, all turned out. The
moon set that evening about s o'clock, but
until about II the search was continued,
but was fruitless.
The parents were nearly distracted, but
all efforts made failed to bring the slightest
clue to the lost ones. When nearl all had
civen up, and no hopes were entertained OF
their being found that night, Hampstead
man, named Tristan Little, plunged into
swamp about one and half miles from the
home of Morse, and there, in about foot
of mud and water, found the little ones
exhausted and almost dead. The three
year-old was about half immersed in the
water, and was sleeping with his head
resting on log. How they came there they
cannot tell, except that the four-year-old
says he kept going, and thought ne saw q
light, which he tried to reach. Wet, cold,
and hungry, these babes in the woods must
have slept the sleep of death had the search
been given over until the following day.

a long interview with Mr.. Chase on Satur-

in St. Louis that he was willing to give

"Yes," replied Mr.. Long, I" Frank Blair
is all right. When he was in Cincinnati
the other day he informed Mr.. Pendleton,
myself, and others, in conference we had,
that he was ready any moment to yield all
personal considerations for the party's

"And so you had all the arrangements
made, and all were willing except Sey-
mour?" inquired /.
"All. Horatio Seymour and his wire
workers positively refuse to listen to rea-
son. We shall be defeated, and his obsti-
macy is the sole cause. 'Old Greenbacks )

Mr.. Long spoke in most emphatic
manner.
Mr.. Chase's letter should settle his status
without doubt: ! made diligent inquiry as
to its terms. A copy, which should judge
reliable, reads as follows-viz:

MURDER WILL OUT-A BosToN TRAGEDY
FOUR YEARS AGo-THE MURDERER JUST AR
REsTED.-Our citizens may remember the
murder of man named Maurice Foley,
which occurred near the junction of South
and Essex streets about four years ago, and
also the fact that his murderer was never
discovered. The murdered man (Foley)
had on his person about $40 in money,
which was the cause of his death. A young
Irishman, who had been i'll for some time,
and was in needy circumstances, had an
entertainment given for his benefit in War
rem Hall, in South street. There was large
attendance, and when the meeting broke
up the proceeds, to the amount above men
toned, were given to Foley. He departed
with the rest at about o'clock in the
morning, and when near Essex street
he was shot, and fell insensible. Officer
Mcdonald, Of the Fourth station, heard the
report of the pistol and saw the flash, and
Immediately started for the vicinity, and
as ne approached the spot he was in
formed by a woman that the murderer
had fed down q certain street. He followed,
but the man made good his escape. On his
return to Essex street the officer picked up
Foley and conveyed him to Hammond's
apothecary store, where he died in a few
minutes. The deceased was buried, but
all search for his murderer was unavailing.
Through all these months and years the de-
tectives have been upon his track, however,
and few days since it was ascertained that
he was in the city of Philadelphia. De-
tective Jones and Officer Mcdonald visited
that city recently with requisition, and
arrived home with the alleged murderer,
William J. Fulton, this morning. The &C
cused was arraigned in the municipal court
this forenoon, charged with the wilful muir
der of Maurice Foley with a pistol, and
fully committed to await the action of the
grand jury. At the time of the murder,
which was at 2 A. NJ. on the lst of October,
1864, Fulton was lieutenant in COM
pany which was quartered in the Beach
street barracks, and did not belong in Bos-
ton. He left the city on the day of the
murder, and there is said TO be q heavy
weight of testimony against him.-Boston

Negro Meeting at Savannah,

SAVANNAH, GA, October 27.-A large
negro Radical meeting was held in Court
house Square this afternoon. Several white
leaders we're on the stand, and their
speeches and those of the blacks were OF an
incendiary and threatening character. One
cclored speaker threatened fearful retrlbu-
ton on the Democrats when Grant is elect
ed. He said his race obtained the right to
vote by revolution, and 1t would take
bloodier one to take it from them. The
colored people would be law-abiding, peace
full citizens if they may, but devilish fight
ing and burning citizens if they must.
Many whites were present as spectators.

it necessary to stamp the assignment? No
consideration, Of course, passing from the
guardian to the administrator

made: 81 reply to your letter of the 18th
instant, that the assignment of mortgage
requires, in every case, the same stamp as
new mortgage, for the sum still secured.
