MEXICAN SILvER.-Riches will take wings
unto themselves and fly away, as well
knows Thomas Rodrig, who rejoiced in the
possession of six Mexican piastres and SIX
naper dollars. Before he could blink his
two eyes, Emma Smith had confscated the
wealth. which so disguised him that he tore
of and signed his X to an affidavit accusing
the volatile Emma of larceny. She was in
generated in a common cell, to rest uneasily
until the first day ofAugust shall arrive.

This is an opinion expressed by the
Madison Journal:
Our impression is, that the results OF the
late press convention in New Orleans are
neither very creditable to those who were
engaged in it, or very beneficial to the IN
terests sought to be subserved by it. Ii
looks to us like disreputable wrangle. OF
no possible good to anybody or anything
on subjects that ought never to have been
introduced.

The following is dispatch to the ST.
Louis Republican:
SPRINGFIELD, Ill, July 25.-In response
to letter from Mayor Mason, of Chicago
Governor Palmer writes that the resolu-
tions of the Legislature, adjourning the
session to Chicago make no provision tor
procuring rooms for the Legislature or
apartments for State officers, nor provision
for the expense of fitting and furnishing
the same He therefore expresses the opin-
ion that the session can not be held in Chi
cago, and will probably call an extra SEES
sion at the seat of government previous to
the fifteenth of November next.

WANTS ADIvoRCE.-Michael Rodgers, the
mar who shot and killed Albert Meyers in

will not find it difficult to remain separated
from his wife for the space of one year, or
longer. The criminal law will attend to
that part, in one way assisting him to OBJ
tain divorce

He was a man whose character was ire

by all who knew him. Although OF excel

New Orleans many years ago, living some
what secluded life-for principle, being a
man of undertaking character. Not a
