entirely groundless. II was at first thought
that an inquest would be held, hut it was not
considered necessary, and the remains wSe

the same man who sat 20 indifIesently
through his trial and received the decision
almost with sneers. DouttleS a rcaiiing
.seuse If his awful situation steals over him
in the silent watches Of the night, when lbs
fellow prisoners are buried IN slunsber, and
he feels the precios moments gliding from
his grasp faster than they ever seemed TO
glide l,efsre. Who can tell the aeps,ies
which the poor man endures as he avaih,
'siay by day, the decision which may give
him few months more If life? Truly,

By private letter from Washington, Iowa,
We learn that work on the Chicago & South
western railroad is being pushed in this direc-
ton as fast as possible, and has now nearly
reached Brighton, distance Of twelve miles.
The people thereabouts, As well as along the
entire line are wide awake about the road,
and fully appreciate is ipsrAstAICey Men
completed h will be one II tie most proni-
nent passenger and freight thororghfares IN
the country.
MALONE, who assassinated Col. BueI, was
formerly from Macon City, Mo-, where he
was once cashier in bank. Being unfor-
tunate in love affair, he left that part Of the
country and at last enlisted in the army. He
is said to have had a good education and once
moved in first class society. We believe II Is
the intention Of his brothers 10 remove his
body to Macon, where they reside and own
large amount Of property. They were ex-
pectcd here Yesterday. II
PEOPLE who ought to ct their mails
promptly at Hoge station on the Kansas Pa
ci6c Railway, complain that their papefs
arrive week behind time, with Disgusting
regularity. Leavenwolth papers ten days
old are Of little usc to people who live only
q few miles from the city. II there is any
thing that is more earnestly prayed for than
another, il is for a reform in the nails.
