A REMARKABLE REGJON.-The dele.

4 REMARKABLE REGION.-The dele
gate from Montana, aided by prominent
citizens of the Territory, is urging Con.
gross to set apart aud reserve permanently
as a National Park the wonderful region,
some sixty by seventy miles square, about
the source Of the Yellowstone River This
locality is pronounced the most remarkable
region in the world. Within the area
mentioned are cataracts Of prodigious
height, canyons $500 feet deep, and vol
canoes, hot springs without number, and
greatest of all, there are gcysers which at
regular intervals of few hours throw
columns of hot water, eight feet in diameter,
two hundred feet high. With the COM
pletion Of the Northern Pacific Railroad,
near the knc Of which these wonders oc-
cur, tens Of thousands Of tourists aud
.ight.seers will annually visit these marvcls
of nature, aud. as in the case of the Yos.
cmite Valley Of California, it is only fitting
that the locality should remain in possess
sion of the Government, and thus be kept
free from the annoyances and abuses which
would necessarily attend private ownership.
The region is too elevated for agriculture,
hence the interests of settlers will not be
prcjuiiced by the proposed reservation.
1t is predicted that when this geyscr region
in Northern Wyoming and Southern Mon.
tana is once rendered accessible by railroad,
few Americans will wish to go to Europe
before having visited this new wonder. land
on our own continent.-Er.

CHICAGO FIREs.-Jn 4 monthly insur-
anco journal published at Chicago, called
Tie Obserrer, dated June Of 1870, We fiud
the following headings and extracts in a
couple Of articles, which seem like words
of prcmonition
VII We hurc Great Fire p'-The
loud call by the recent alarm at the North
Chicago rolling mills, the dry weather and
the precedcnts of Chicago, all point to the
probability of great loss to insurance
companies. Perhaps We are gloomy pro-
phets, aud for the general interest, we hope
we are mistaken. u y The leading agen-
ces seem to vic with each other in an un-
worthy competition to have the last bid for
heavy lines of business. y x Ifthc under
writer's Of Chicago should wake up some
fno morning with calamity before them,
etc. a' * 1t may be that We must have one
or two moro scorchings before we shall see
the vast interest Of fire insurance guarded
and cared for as it should be.
The same journal has second prcmo-
nitory article headed:
Fuel for large Fires What has
happened in that distant city [Qucbecl
may happen in Chicago, etc.
This writer cries out like second 10.
nah for Chicago to repent of her ways of
building, insurance, fire department organ
ization, etc; but the warning seems to
have passed without heed, till tho late ca.
lamity gives weirdlike value to tho for
gotten cautions-Er.

Certain it is that national bank certi-

per cents for national bank certificates of

CAN MONEY ORDERS BE GARNIsuED?
The Bolivcr (Mo) Free Press reports
the following case: fsal a,' s.
A legal case, somewhat novel in its char.
acter, occurred here on Saturday last.
Postmaster Bushnell had received notifca-
tion the evening previous to pay the sum
of $3.50 to citizen residing 10 the county
on the presentation by him OF money orders
to that amount. An attorney, Of an en-,
quiring turn of mind, happened to see the
money order registry lying open on the
Postmaster's desk, and, furthermore, hap
pened to observe that the individual 10
whose favor the money order was drawn
was Indebted to client Of his. Sagacious
attorney Immediately be,hought himself
how he might turn his information to'ac.
count. Accordingly next morning he had
notice Of garnishce served on the POST
master, eujoiniug him from paying the
aforsaid $3.50 to the person for whom it was
intended. The Deputy Sheriff had scarcely
finished reading the notice to the Post
master, when the person to whose order the
money had been sept appeared on the scene,
and presenting his orders asked for the
money. The Postmaster was obliged to
confess that it was out Of. his power to
comply, and recited the circumstances un-
der which it was held. The disappointed
payee sought legal advice on tho subject.
Attorney No. 2 ransacked the Postofice
Department regulations touching money
orders, and thought he discovered sufficient
grounds for demanding that the money be
paid to his client. The Postmaster, how
ever, thonght best to await instructions
from Washington on tho subject before
forking over. AS the matter now stands
the money is tied up in the hands of the
Postmaster until the next meeting of the
Circuit Court in April, unless the Postofiice
Department dissolyes the Injunction sooner.
