AT Salem, Ind, on the morning of the 29th,
about forty masked men broke into the Jail
where Delos Eeffron was confined for the mur.
der, few days before, of DIR. Halstead, and,
after pelting the prisoner with fre-balls and
pistol-bullets, took him out and hanged him.
Great excitement was caused by the affair.
Jesse r. Grant, father of President Grant,
died at his home in Covington, KY, on the
evening of the 10Th, of general debility. The
President, though expected in special train,
had not arrived at the time of his death. His
death had been hourly expected for several
days. ....t..
There were nine cholera interments at Mem.
phis on the 2Sth. There were eight deaths
from that disease at Nashville on the 2Sth, and

ored, was convicted of the murder of Anna
Gibson, and Levin Palmer, colored, of an out

The recent official report of the Bureau of
Agriculture shows the average increase of cot
ton acreage over last year nearly IL per cent
The condition of the crop was: Florida, 2
per cent. above the annual average. All
the others fall below, viz: Virginia and
Alabama, per cent; North Carolina, Is;
South Carolina, IL; Georgia and Louisiana, g.;
Mississippi and Arkansas, 5; Texas, IA; and
Tennessee, 10. The acreage cultivated will
fall considerably below that planted. The
statistical returns of corn completed to June
L, do not include the area and condition, for
the reason that it was too early, but the foot
notes of the correspondence show that the
planting of corn in most sections of the coun-
try had been much retarded by the excessively
wet and cold weather, and that the pests which
usually thrive in such weather, the cut-worms,
had commenced extensive operations, and
threatened to greatly damage the crop. The
Bureau reports the wheat crop as looking well,
and that oats and rye promised an increased
yield.
The following important order has recently
been issued by the Commissioner of Pensions:
son and after the 1st day of July, the consid-
Grafton of all invalid increase cases will be
suspended by the Pension-Ofice, until the

4th of September next. Medical examinations,
however, will continue in such cases, so that
no applicant may suffer loss as to the COM
mencement of increase by reason of date of the
medical examination. Meantime all original
cases upon file will be considered and disposed
of so far as the evidence will warrant"

A RAILROAD case was recently tried in
Indiana which establishes valuable pre-
cedent in fixing one of the rights of tray
elers. One Mrs. Winscott had ticket to
pass over the Ohio e. Mississippi Rail
road, from Seymour to Brownstown. The
train failed to stop at the latter place
sufficient length of time for the lady to
get off in safety. Before the train had
got quarter of a mile away, she requested
the conductor to stop the train, which he
refused to do, and carried her eight miles
away, also refusing to stop at Vallonia,
which was only four miles from Browns
town. Mrs. Winscott therefore, brought
suit before Justice Of the Peace, and re-
covered judgment for $50 damages The
case was appealed by the company to the
Court of Common Pleas, in which she re-
covered 800, the whole amount of dam
ages claimed. The court instructed the
jury that the train should have been
stopped a sufficient length of time to al
low the passengers reasonable oppor-
tunity to get of, regardless of the rules or
customs of the company.-ChScdgo
