rho Mail.

We were made happy the other day
by the hope o: getting our mails earlier
in the day, but alas vain hope! The
mails now close at 81 in The morning,
and then only one mail day. The
Eastern and Western Express pass each
other near Kearneysville, between 10
and IL o'clock, but only the Western
train carries the mail, which lies at
Kearpeysville until the arrival OF the
accommodation train, u r. NJ. The
mail that leaves here at ga. NJ, does
not leave Kearneysville until & p. NJ.
For this reason it takes two days to get
our mails from Martinsburg, and one
day longer than usual to receive replies
to letters sent to Baltimore. This is q
great annoyance to our merchants and
others. and we hope some remedy will
soon be had.-Sheppsrdstotcn Register.

Imnor,ance of Heal,fy Blood.

Every drop OF blood that circulates
through the veins eventually becomes a
solid particle Of the body. Flesh, bone and
muscle are merely sollfled blood, and u pom
the quality OF the blood depends the condi.
ton of the whole physical system. Unless
the LIQUID material by which the human
substance Is renewed and sustained Is pure
and nutritious 1t Is impossible that the
body can be hea' thy and strong. One OF
the most i'm portant properties OF Bostet;er's
Stomach Btters is that OF improving the
condition or the vital fluid when infected
or impoverished. Acting directly and pow
erfully upon the stomach, in which the
manufacture OF the blood Is commenced,
and upon the liver which secretes fluid
next in importance to the stream Of life it
self, this powerful vegetable tonic and
depurent has an immense indirect influ-
encs upon the circulate IN. Hence the ex-
traordinsry cures wrou Sht by the Bit;ers in
cases of general debility, malarious feyers,
rheumatism, billion sness, constipation, dc.

TIE Baltimore papers are publishing
details OF what may well rank as one o.
the cur,osites OF modern crime. Sew
eral nIonths ago a man named GosS
whose life had been insured in various
companies to the amount OF $25,OOO
was supposed to have been burned tc
death in his workshop. The insur'
ance companies, suspecting fraud re-
sisted the payment claimed under the
policies. At the trial OF the case, one
UppERzooK, a brother-in-law OF Goss
was an important witness. He tes'i-
fed to having seen Goss in the shop
few minutes before the fire aud iden'
tilted the charred and shapeless trunk
that was dragged from the ruins az the
body of bis Inflated though heavily In
sured brother-in-law. The jury gave
q verdict against the insurance compa'
nv and in favor OF the widow.
Now comes the sequel. A few weeks
ago UNDERTOOK was arrested, accused,
upon strong circumstantiale evdiuce, o.
having murdered an unknown man IN
Chester county, Pennsylvania. An
investigation of the case and exsmlna-
ton of the remains Of the murdered
man proved that the victim was none
other than the identical Goss, the
brother-:n-law oil UNDERTOOK, who was
supposed tohave been burned to death
He had been kept in concealnent while
the insurance suits were pending, but
has at length been murdered by his
partner in the fraud. 1t is now stated
that prior to the time Of his actual
death his policies Of insurance had ex'
pired and that nothing can be recovered
upon them. The case has no parallel
in the criminal annals OF this country.

sLIGHrLY INCORRECT.

Speaking OF the recent decision OF the
Supreme Court Of Appeals in the Peni-
Tertiary case. the TntelHgncer last
Monday said:
Nobody, we presume, ia greatly eur.
prised at such result-at least, nobody
acquainted with the personal proclivi"
ties OF the gentlemen composing the
court, and the partisan character of de-
cisions made by it wherever cases in
volving questions growing out Of the
Rebellion have been involved"
This statement merits little exam.
ination. In the first place the case re-
Gently decided by the Court contrary to
our neighbours opinion of the law, in.
volved no question whatever growing
out of the rebellion" and how the
personal proclivities" Of the gentlemen
composing the Court. IN such cases,
should influence their decision in a con-
troversy. concerning the appointing
pswer and the constitutional existence
of the Board OF Public Works, is some
thing rather difficult to see. Our
neighbor might as well have yelled his
disappointment by saying that nothing
else was to be expected from Judges
having a "proclivity" for mutton'chops.
In the next place, whatever partisan
character can by any means be attached
to decisions made by the present Court
Of Appeals wherever Questions grow
ing out Of the rebellion have been invol'
ved,p would certainly have been approx
ed by the MtclKgsnesrif, in its chagrin
at the Governors discontinue, it had
not forgotten "the registration case" de-
cided only few weeks ago. In the case
of ANDREW FAxsLER against the Board OF
Registration OF Tucker county, the
OPTION Of the court below. presided over
BY one Of the most Radical Judges OF
the old regime, was affirmed by the
Court Of, Appeals, and a registrar was
protected from the payment OF damages
to a man whom he had disiranchised.
Did that look like such a partisan
leaning as the htslGgsneer thinks it
discovers in the Penitentiary case The
truth 10 that the present court has
studiously avoided the bias with which
it is falsely charged by the Intslhgsneer'
and il would be hard to find anywhere
a single paragraph Of as few lines as
that we have quoted from our neigh
boris editorial article of last Monday
containing as many distinct and palpa-
bic ialsehoods as the lntellgenesr has
been betrayed into BY its disappoint"

An Quiet AIong the lava BetI.,

SAN FRANCISCO, April 25.-Dispatch-
es from Yreka tonight say that news
from the lava beds upto April oath states
that nothing particularly interesting has
transpired. Colonel Perry's cavalry has
returned from a scouting expedition I'M
attacked. They are convinced that no
Indians have left the lava beds. Donald
Mckay reports forty Modocs encamped
at Big Cave, four miles southeast of the
first battlefield. The .uodocs must come
out for water. Mckay says the Indians
have posted pickets. 1t is thought that
desperate fighting will be required
to dislodge the Modocs. Captured
squaws say that in the first fight
an Indian picked up a shell and
chewed the fuse, when it exploded,
blowing his head off, cutting John
Sehonchin in two and killing another.
A general border war is feared, owing
to bad faith with the Indians. Meach-
am is recovering; he has left the hos
pital for Ferrer's rancho, Klamath lake.
Captain Eagin is recovering. Donald
Mckay, just returned to camp, says the
Modocs have left the lava beds and that
there has been no fighting since the
seventeenth.

nurr,rn AND Lor MARKET.

The steady advance in the value OF
city property is the more wonderful IN
view Of the marvellous tightness Of the
money market; and even more amazing
is the growing number of houses going
UP everywhere in and about the city,
If Grant would throttle the thieves and
speculstors who trifie with the interests
of the whole country BY gambling in
gold, and money were easy in this city,
real property would advance almost
instantly twenty-five or fifty per
cent. Hundreds of people, in the past
few weeks, have visited the magnificent
estate OF Dr. Thomas, to be sold in lots
at auction, and in every direction there
are growing evidences Of the value and
profitableness of investments, made at
present reduced prices, in real estate.
