first of January, 1875, the new postage
law goes into effect, which requires us
to prepay the postage OH papers sent
through the mails beyond the limits of
the county, This. renders it. necessary
for us to require. prepay of sub
scription on all papers sent outside of
this County, from the fact that We can
not afford to prepay the postage and
wait for years for the amount of sub
scription to be paid, and in some cases
never receive the amount due us at all.
We will prepay the postage on advance
paying subscriptions, without additional
charge. We give this timely notice so
that subscribers at a distance who wish
to continue, may settle up their back
dues and prepay for the ensuing year.

SALMON PL,xrEp-The followil

SALMON PLANTED.-The following,
we clip from the Free Press Of Hagers-
town, Md. And, in doing so, we take
pleasure in according to the present and
previous administration, great credit for
the zeal they have shown in their COM
mcndable efforts to introduce proper
"food-fsh" in the various streams of the
country. We now have an abundance
of fine Black Bass in the Potomac, all
the result of the benevolent forethought
of citizen of Cumberland, who, at his
own expense, placed the progenitors of
the great finny tribe in this fine stream.
Before many years, We shall have the
Potomac and its tributaries stocked
with fine Salmon.
SALMON PLANTED.-On Wednesday
night week, Fish Commissioners Major
r. b. Ferguson and p. b. Downs, Esq.
placed in the Marsh Run, tributary
of the Antietam Creek, near, averaging
in size about one inch. The little beau
ties were Matched out in Baltimore
county, in this State, from spawn OBJ
tanned from fish caught i'll Mcleod
River, California. We are informed
that fifteen thousand more will be
placed in tributaries to the Potomac in
this county next week.
DIvoRcED.-In the jefferson county,
w. Va, Circuit Court, last Monday,
Daniel Ames, former Mayor of Harpers
Ferry, obtained a divorce from Mary
Clemmer Ames, the literary celebrity,
who is now residing in Washington.
We trust the issue of this affair will be
as fortunate as that of Ellis Two
Wives" novel which Mrs Ames has
just concluded in Every Saturday, in
which, after heing divorced, the miser-
able couple meet, make up, remarry,
and settle down to permanent happi-
ness.-Uashington Erening Nail.

CHIEF POLICE ROUSE, who left
Titusville about two weeks ago for
Denver Colorado, to bring back Saeger,
the leader Of the Benninhoff robbers, re-
turned last Wednesday without him, as
we see by the Titusville Herald of the
14th. The Denver authorities refused
to give saeger up until the reward and
expenses we're paid, which Mr. Benning
hoff refused to do, and it is very pro.
bable that Seager has since been dis
charged and is by this time safe in
Texas with his herders, and it will be
unhealthy for the man who goes there
to arrest him without regiment to his
back. The Herald also says:
1t appears that Saeger is not so
wealthy as was at first supposed. In
fact, he has no sport cash. The drove
of cattle which he was reported to have
in the vicinity of Denver is myth. and
the whole story of his wealth read, at
the time, very much like romance.
He has two partners 10 the cattle raising
business, and the firm own from $780,
600 to 100000 worth of cattle who
roam at large in Texas, about 200 miles
from Austine. He says that last sum-
mer he branded $4,000 head of calves.
He also has drove of 400 head on the
way to Denver, of which he owns 200.
This comprises all his wealth.

William Messenger, perseverance" by
Eddie Grey, and "HaLis'by NJ. S. Kline
were we'll delivered and well received.
The poem "The Old School Year" by
Willie Geary, was good. The prophy-
cies by Ida Clearwater, and Alton Cha
pin, were full of humor, and showed
that considerable pains had been taken
in their preparation. The Valedictory,
by Arther B. Little was we'll written,
aud admirably delivered. In a word
the whole performance was success,
of which the originator and performers
may justly feel proud.
