 Gentlemen-I am just in receipt of your favor of March 1st. l take pleasure in recognizing fully the prompt, cordial and liberal action taken by your citizens in aid of the Texas and Pacific Railway.

Ia an article on thecollapse Of Jay
Gould's latest conspiracy to force up
the price of gold, the st. Louis DEM
ocrat says:
1t is now in order for the New
York Tribune and some Of the learned
tinanciers of the nation to reconstruct
their views of the gold policy inaugu-
rated by Mr.. Boutwell, and continued
by his successor. 1t was a pet notion
OF Mr.. Greeley's that the retention OF
$40, 100000 or $50, COG, ,OO0of gold in the
Treasury was wrong, and every
monthly statement of the national
finances made during the past five
years has been followed by demand
BY the 1tsbsa,e and other papers that
this gold should be sold. Events have
shown that If such policy had been
pursued by the government, the great
Wall street gambler would now be
master ofthe hour, and financial dis
asters would multiply on every hand.
When MIR. Boutweil's policy was as
sailed, and he was urged to sell a
large part of his coin balance, he inya.
riably answered that less quantity
than this kept in his vaults would have
no terrors for the reckless gamblers
who were striving for the control OF
the gold market. Events have shown
the wisdom of his policy, and the
nation now has additional cause to
congratulate itself that the triumph OF
the Republican party in the last cam
paign defeated the doings OF the poll
ticians, who stood pledged to admin
lister the finances of the country In the
interest Of the unscrnpulous men
whose defeat last Friday win be
herslded witA.joy by all honest men,

a Young Man Runs Away with a
Judges Wife-He Takes the Two Chill.
dren and n 2J0-Pound Servant Girl.
From the Leavenworth Times. sert.2.
About two days ago letter was re-
celved at police headquarters in this
city from Bethany, Harrison county,
Mo-, stating that a young man BY the
name of Samuel Frost had stolen his
mothers best span Of fhorses and eloped
with the wife of prominent Judge
and merchant of that place. Beside
tho woman and her two children Zone
at the breast), the young renegade
managed to get away with the horse
and carriage of the venerable Judge,
and last, but not least, of all this thiev-
ings, did feloniously steal and carry
away, against her will, the light, frag.
lie and delicate corn-fed servant girl
who "kicks the beam" at exactly $50
pounds.
Then lie fed the town and goaded
the horses on toward happy Kansas,
where no expected to settle down in
some retired spot out on the plains,
where no one would know him; where
sweet milk, sweet butter and tranquil
ity reign supreme, and everything
was lovely. He did not reach his par
adise, however, owing to his folly in
placing himself in the way of our eff
ficient and wide-awake police force.
Monday Officer Spaulding got wind of
O camping party of one man and two
women on Three-mile creek. ana con-
cluded to go out and see who they
were. As soon as he saw the portly
domestic he 'sknew his man at once"
and, apologizing to the women for his
intrusion, laid his hand on Frost's
shoulder, and told him he was his pris-
oner. Of course the women tainted,
and the $50 pounds of servantgalism
rolled her eyes wildly toward heaven
and Topped.
But this affecting tableaux did not
affect the officer in the least. He took
the two horses, wagon and the mad
Frost, aud returned to the city, leav-
ing the women in camp to mourn the
loss Of their protector.
The Judges horse and buggy was
sold about ten miles across the river
in Missouri. He has been notified of
the arrest Of the parties, and will prot-
ably send for his recreant wife at once.
Frost is young and nnsophisticated,
and is entirely overcome with the ca
lamity which has befallen him and his
harem.

Yesterday evening Governor Wash,

Gen. Butler, finding the Convention
against him, the following occurred:
At the opeaing of the evening ses.
sion General Butler took the floor and
Withdrew his motion to verify the re.
suit of the last vote by counties. He
said he was satisfied that majority
of the delegates were in favor Of the
nomination Of Governor Washburn,
and that he did not care to delay the
business OF the Convention BY re-
sort TO parliamentary tactics. He de-
clared anew his fealty to the party and
said that he did not want TO anything
10 cause dissension in its ranks. He
consequently withdrew his name, and
said that he saw no cause to run inde-
pendently
At 7:15p. M Governor Washburn
was re-nominated by reclamation.
The following is one of the resolu.
tions adopted;
Resolced, That the people Of Massa.
chusetts emphatically condemn the
action of those members Of the last
Congress, both Republicans and DEM
ocrats, who availed themselves of the
occasion of an increase of salary OF
the President and of the Judges of the
Supreme Court and of the members
of the Cabinet, supposed to be just
and necessary for the future, to secure
to themselves disproportionate and
extravagant compensation for the past
as well as for the future service.
Thus does the Republican party
again show it's fealty to lite principles
in the defeat of one, very able and
distinguished member of the party.
AS party it has in its history laid
aside scores OF its prominent men
who have gone estray and undertook
to make head against 1t. No man or

Last year the New York Liberals
would not recognize the Democrats in
any way, as a party. This year the
tables are turned, aud the Democratic
leaders refuse to recognize the Liber.
ais as i party, and so the latter have
no hope Of accomplishing anything
satisfactory in that State this year.
