An Important Addition to the Facili-

1t will crafty the public to learn
that the Erie Railway Company have
arranged to run two lines from Jer.

rival Of all express trains on their
railway from this city and the West
-one to the foot of Chambers street,
as heretofore, for the downtown
passengers; the other to the foot of
Twenty.third street, near the Fifth
Avenue Hotel, for the sccommoda.
tion of up town passengers.
The new arrangement will 90 into
operation on the 9th inst, and it will

hotels, have long complained of the
great distance of the Chambers

Thousand persons have been mur.

Southern States during the last year
of whom at least nine hundred end
eighty were Republicans, and that
not twenty of the murderers have
been brought to justice by those
whom The Times is apt to call "the
South.' Witness the case of Geo.
w. Ashburn, who was assaulted in
his bedroom by not less than thirty
or forty of the younger chivalry Of
his town, and riddled with their bnl

aave been utterly shielded from JUS

who introduced US to Mr.. Johr
Thompson, who proceeded to show
us around town. We found every
thing fourishing. and-the bIacken.o
ruins OF the disastrous FIRE of las,
winter, that destroyed the best par
OF the place, are disappearing, and
giving place to excellent business
houses. Ne found the newly-elected
Justice of the Peace, Jacob Peters
Esq, hard atwork upon a commodi
Gus frame building, designed for 8
storelroom which will be ready for
occupation by the middle of June.
We called at the steam saw mill OF |
Diiiery q Ludwig. which is in sue
cessful .opperation, and will turn out
for shipment over 100000 feet OF
lumber the present season. beside
very large amount Of custom work.
The same firm have portable mill
at work near Van Buren, which is
doing fine business. We next call
ed upon the firm of Wickerd & Hal
sey, dealers in Dry Goods. This
firm had the misfortune to be burned
out last winter, and as a consequence
are compelled to occupy rather
straitened quarters but they will
soon commence the erection of 8
large and commodious building ade
qnate for the, wants of their trade :
which is large. and we are happy to
say, constantly increasing. We then
called upon MIR. Frank Miller, who
is engaged in the grocery business.
We found his establishment crowded
with customers, and we conclude
that he.is doing a Gland office bust

man he is, too. saw
We noticed that new drug store
is about TO be established in the
place, our friend DR.. J. III. Teal be-
ing engaged in fitting mp building

wishes for his success. /,
A fine building is in process of
erection, designed for a hotel, and
everything gives evidence that the
people of this pleasant little village r
are alive to business.
After tea with our hospitable
friend Thompson, we took the eight
o'clock train for home, under the .
of Mr.-Dnnham, where we
arrived in good condition, feeling
much pleased with our visit, and :

TIE recent National Convention
OF the Grand Army Of the Republic
held at Cincinnati, was one of more
than usual interest. Those who at
tended as delegates were earnest
workers in the cause, and were not
drswn together by the novelty at
tending such gathering, as was too
often the case in previous conven-
tions Of this organization. There
are few organizations that have been
called upon to Withstand more ma
ignantroppssition than the G. A. R.,
and none have more completely re.
futed the calumnies OF its enemies
by 9 steady adherence to principles.
In connection with the recent con.
ventioa We notice that the splendid
war drama, e'srhe Drummer Boy of
ShiIch,,' has been produced at the
NATIONAL fTheatre for the benefit of
the widONssand orphans of fSdeceased
soldiers. The mention of the drama
brings TO our. mind the familiar
faces Of many who figured in the first
presentation of the drummer Boy"
at Mozart Hall, in tha. city, little
over one year ago. We love to re-
member them, for they we're not Oh
ly trne soldiers, but also true friends
of their deceased comrades and
those dependent upon them.

The Democrats of the Indiana
Legislature we're recently very nice
ly beaten at theirown game. 1t will
be remembered that these worthless,
a short time since, in anticipation of
action. by, that body on the 18th
Amendment, resigned their seats in
sufficient numbers to leave both
branches without quorum, and thus
prevent action thereon. Well, q few
days since, the Democratic Senators
tried the same dodge again. Before
the Senate had received notice of
their resignation, however, the bill
ratifying the Amendment was called
up and passed, the Lieutensnt Gov

notification of their resignation had
been received by the Senate, they
were to all intents and purposes,
members of that body.

Calania, Sicily, fell in love with bcauS
tifpl beggar girl, whom he easily induo-

scarcely knew what to think Of the new

made many remarks on the Troublesome
and unnatural restraints imposed on
themselves by the rich. For instance,
she could not, for her life see the pro-
