POSTAL MONEY OKDERs The money
order system as introduced blythe Gov
ernment is a great convenience, and is
universally popular with the people
Like other cOnveniences, however, it bias
its drawbacks, and will admit OF inn
provement. Its defect is in not provId>
ing fund for the local offices that will
enable them Mt all times to ply orders
as presented. We know that this Is its
intention, but in the practical working
of the system it is frequently found that
the payment Of orders is deferred on &C
count Of the lack Of funds. This defect
can be remedied, aud whh its removal
the money order system would be about
as near perfect rs is possible for any
mere human institution.

FRIENDLT CALL We had the pleasure
of call from DR.. Robert Newell, late
Indian Agent in charge of the Lapwai
Reservation. The DR.. was lately reliev>
ed by an army officer, and again returns
to private lite. If any civilians were to
be retained in the Indian services we
think DR.. Newell is the man, for certain

vidual more thoroughly conveTsant with
the Indian character. or better fitted, hy

HANDSOME BUGGY.- Weyesterday were
invited to examine n Walla Walla made
buggy, which on inspection we found
TO be ali that could be desired in the
way of neat and serviceable vehicle.
What is most remarkable about the
buggy is the fact that in all its parts
wood as well as iron-it is the work of
one man, Mr. C. p. Wineset, who has the
rare merit of being a skillful worker in
both wood and iron. All the irons for
the wagon were forged by himself out OF
Norway shape" or shoe iron, being
much stronger than the castings used
in Eastern wagons. OuIy select and
well seasoned lumber was used, aud the
whole put together with the utmost care.
The wagon, got up in this style, and
finished complete, is sold for less than
the inferior imported article can be laid
down for in this market. The buggy
was made to order for Mr.. e. F. Kraft,
and we need scarcely add that be is
pleased with the job 1t will be on ex
hiblton at the Fair next week, when
we commend it to the attention of geu>
Ilemen who may desire strong, subs
stantial, and ut the same time a neat and
tasty wagon. The maker has named
this specimen of his workmanship
" Wineset's improved elliptic spring
buggy" aud informs us that he can fllI
orders for similar wagons for $3.50 zach B.,
1t is highly important 10 encourage
home manufacture, and when the do,
nestle article Can be had a. cheap or
cheaper than the imported article, it is
to our interest to patrOnize the domestic
producer.

DAY OF ATuNEMEkr.-Yesterday being
the day OF atonement, the most sacred
day in the Hebrew ritual, all the stores
of our Israelite cItIzens were closed
Other religious days may be neglected,
but the Jew who tails to observe the
day OF atouemeut, is regarded AS an out
cast by his brethern of the faith, and in
case of death is denied burial rites in
accordance with the practice OF the
church. In this county there are very
many Israeiites who neglect their
usual festival days, bu: we have yet to
meet the Jew who failed to observe the
day of atonrmeut. On tins day the Jews
are supposed to make rep"ratlon for any
wrong they may have peroetrated in the
course of The previous year, and all
quarrels and arrangements are made up,
the enmIties recOnciled. 1t would be well
if there was some such day under the
christian dlspensation, as certainly 1t IS
desirable that there be some occa
sion on which enmities can be laid
aside and man meet his fellow man as n
brother. Those who are curious as to
the origin of this Jewish festival, are re-
ferred to Leviticus, 18th chapter, where
they will 6ud that Aaron was directed
by Moses to make burnt offering MS an
.'atonement for the sins OF himself and
people, 0n this day the Hebrews,
wherever they may be, are accustomed
TO meet in their syuagogues, and make
offerings of money aud other valuables,
the proceeds of which go to the relief Of
the poor aud afflicted ofthe congregation.
In California, and if we mistake not
Oregon and Washington Territory, the
offerings of yesterday were to be applied
to the relief of the suffering Jews o;
Poland, who have been sOrely afflicted by
famine, aud hundreds Of whom have
famshed from starvation. 10 matters OF
this kind, theJews, although ever ready
to aid all worthy charities, never appeal
to their christian friends, but supply
whatever is required from their own
means. A remarkable people, they are
not more remarkable 10 their separation
from all other races than they are in the
observance of their peculiar religious
rites.

RIcHMoND.-The editor of the Hender-
son IN. c. I'sdes writes to his paper from
this city as follows:
ave were quite agreeably surprised
to find 80 many large dry goods and
fancy houses and drug stores in this city.
Her business men can vie with those Of
northern cities in the extent and elegance
of their arrangements. Main street is one
vast bazaar, and many of the fronts of
buildings remind one Of New York in the
magnitude of their proportions and the
taste in which they are gotten up. What
hallucination has possessed our North Caro-
lima merchants that they don't all deal with
their friends here at their doors? Enough
money is thrown away on freights and rail-
roads and board-bills during the two sea-
sons in the year to almost buy small stock
of goods for country business; and what
is worse, thrown away on our enemies, or,
at best, hypocritical friends. Let our mer-
chants awaken to their true interests, and
purchase their stocks nearer home. We in
tend to sound it in their ears till they take
our advice, even if they get angry with US
for the advice"

AN INJUNCTION REFUSED IN THE UNITED
STATES CoURT-RAILRoAD. AFFA1as.-Bal-
timore, April Judge Giles, in the United
States Court, has refused the petition of
L. Fl. Shoemaker, of Adams Express, for
ipjunctions, under the national banking
law, to restrain the National Mechanics
and National Union Banks of Baltimore
from doing business, as it is alleged they
were squandering the stockholders money.
The court said that such action could only
be brought by Government officer, and
he therefore overruled the application for
an injunction because of the error in pro-
ceedings.
There is now proposition before the
City Councils to sell two millions and q half
dollars worth Of the city stock in the Balti-
more and Ohio railroad, and apply the
money to aid in completing the Western
Maryland road to Hagerstown and Will
Transport. Also, to apply portion of the
same funds to the Pittsburg, Connellsville,
and other roads. No doubt this measure
will pass.-Special dispatch to the Evening

Suicide OF A COMMISSION MERCHANT IN
BALTIMoRE.-A truly lamentable case of
suicide is narrated in the following circum-
stances: Mr.. Harrison P. Turner, well
known in this community as g commission
merchant, arose this morning about half
past 6 o'clock, and suddenly Selling q
razor, drew it across his throat with such
violence that not only the jugular vein was
severed but the neck cut from ear to ear.
His wife, sleeping by his side, was awakened
BY his movements and his falling upon the
floor, near the bed, soon discovered what had
occurred. The deceased had attained the
age Of ffty-one years had recently failed
in business and this fact is supposed to
have occasioned such dependency Of
mind as to have induced him to commit the
rash act. He leaves six children-or-
phans, indeed, by thepoverty which, at this
late age, has gresped them. DR.. Carr held
an inquest, and verdict in accordance
with the facts was rendered baltimore
american, April l.
