Kate Bender.

Awoman upon whom suspicion has
rested for some time, was takeT. into
custody one day this week neal the
Douglass county line. 1t has been
thought by many for severl months that
she is the genuine Kate Bender, the
genuine maiden, and heroine of the
Kansas murders. Parties arrived here
Tuesday and tclegraphed for correct
description. This oman of whom we
speak, we are informed, has been in
Douglass county some five monts. She
has been known to hide herself on the
approach Of strangers, but We believe
the direct II for suspecting her con-
sists in the fact that she offered a GER
tain man $500 if he would travel with
and take her out of the country. She
mentioned that it would be her plan to
travel by night and rest during the day.

kearney was the scene of the follow
ing rich incident a few days since. A
we'll dressed, heavy muStached gentle
man. with a valise, left the train, enter
ed a store and took a seat by the stove.
Shortly after Mrs. Samuels, the mother
of the outlaws, came in, and being sus-
picious of strangers, quietly asked Il
clerk who that nan was and what was
his business. The clerk, thinking only
of q little fun, told her he was Il detec-
tive, but that he had forgotten his name;
that was enough. She left at once to
report. The clerk, thinking it was a
pretty clever trick, told his employer of
the joke. Good God mani" exclaimed
the merchant, your joke will be the
death Of this gentleman" Away went
the clerk to find the old woman and eX-
plain the matter, while the gentleman
with the mustache and yalise gave I'M
mistakable symptoms OF ague. The as
surance Of the clerk that ii WAS .'all
right now" served to only partially re-
store the tranquility of that St. Louis
drummer, who solemnly AYERS that it is
his first and last visit to Kearney.

The Store That Never Advertises.

The following dolcful description of a
store that never advertlses is commend
ed to those merchants who think they
can do business without patronizing the
printers:
The store that never advertises is
probably Il of the most solemn spec
tacleS TO contemplate that is eve spread
before human vision. From the out
side it resembles a hearse house with
mourntul variations. Occasionally some
II steps in to inquire, with becoming
Solemnity, ii there has been a death in
the family, or to ask where that store
is that the papers tell about But aside
from these and a few withered ~cronies
who drop in to discuss the causes which
led TO the revolutionary war, the quiet
OF the place is never Interrupted.
One of the proprietOrs, if there are
two, posts the last years accounts in
chalk on a single, and the other tells
how folks did when he was Il Young
mana story, if told well, that would
make a first rate legend. They don't
keep any clerks and only half keep
themselves. Timid boys say as they
pass the store the place is haunted. and
the hurrying business man referred to it
as that old place where old Slow IL Easy
used to keep 4 store many years ago.
The only difference between day and
night is, that at night You are more liza
bic to bump your heads against the fad
ed out sign board that drops from the
door facing, and NEE was luminous
with the gay colored word ''store,'
Such instances are terrible warnings to
men ofthe present agenot to try to do
business without advertising.

1t is evident that the Chicago Times
does not have much faith in Louisiana
Conservatives. 1t is evident. however,
that truthtullness is not cultivated to any
great extent by New Orleans Demo-
eats. The business or unjuStness of the
Wheeler compromise has nothing to do
with it, they solemnly swore to abide
by it, and violated it at the first oppor-
tunity. Here is what the Times says:
when the Wheeler adjustment was
proposed. the Conservative members of
the Louisiana Legislature entered in
to it heartily. They promised faithfully
that they would abide by the terms of
the adjustment, and by mean of that
promise obtained a majority in the Low
er House. The country confidently hop
ed that this would be the end of the
troubles in that section of the Union {;
but the nature of the 'Conservativcs'was
not fully understood. The conscious
ness that they possessed Il little power,
awOke in them the desire for Il complete
domination. AS a consequence they
yesterday proceeded to unseat four Re-
publican members of the House who
had been declared legally elected, and
seated in their stead four Conservatives
who had not been elected. This was
in direct violation or the letter and spirit
of the Wheeler adjustment. which they
had solemnly sworn to abide by"

AFTER THIRTEEN IEARS.-Dr.
Weatherby entered our office the 9TH

weighing II n and a half, which
he extracted on the 18th inst, from

who received the ball at the battle of
Shiloh, OIL the 9th day of April, 1862,
and had carried the ball in his body

The LAFAYETTE County Court.
From the jefferson City journal

The St. Louis Democrat of yesterday
morning contained the following tele-
gram from Lexington, Missouri, dated
the 9th: "All the members of the
county court resigned to-day, in compli-
ance with the demand Of the Repudia-
ton Convention, now is session in this
city" The designations here referred
to were received by the Governor yes
terday. But the pith of the matter is
they were promptly returned not ac-
cepted.
The case is this: A few days ago the
Circuit Court of the United States, now
in session in this city, awarded al alter
native writ of mandamus against the
county court of Lafayette county, requir-
ing the justices thereof to issue their
warrants on the county treasurer for the
payment of the Judgment of the court
against the county for interest on certain
railroad bonds. 1t was for the purpose
of avoiding the service of this writ that
this resignation of the judges was at
tempted. To this the Governor refused
to be a party. and the acceptance of the
resignation was accordingly refused.
We have not the exact language of the
Governors letter giving his reasons for
the refusal, hut we understand them to
he that he did not wishto be placed in the
light of conniving at any such revolu-
tionary proceeding as the designations
contemplate or constitute. Besides, it is
understood that the Governor does not
think that the designations accomplish
in law what they are intended to by the
justices and their friends. By the pro-
visions of the eighth section of article II
of the Constitution all officers shall con-
tinue in office until their successors are
duly appointed or elected and qualified.
So, until their successors are qualified,
these would-be skulking justices will
constitute and remain the county court
of Lafayette county, resign or not, Is
they will.

Newspaper Correspondents.

Nearly every editor in all Christen-
dom has at some time had his turn at
correspondents. And now we have
ours. So here gOes:-Write upon a
familiar subject, or not at all. Say as
much in short space, even in one line,
as possible. Make no excuse to start
out with. Use plain English; write
perfectly plain hand; never run your
lines downward; leave space between
them; leave little margin on both
edges of your paper; place your words
at goodIy distance apart; leave plenty
of room between each paragraph, and
especially between each item; make
short sentences; begin every sentence
with capital, but do not use capital
letters where they are not required; use
very few authorizations, and, as gener-
al rule, write words in giving num-
bers, instead OF using figures. DO not
use the character a." excepting in
the name of firm, or in &C." 1t
would look horribly in print.
We have told you about enough for
this tire-more than you will remem.
Der, but we cannot leave you without
again suggesting that you write names
as perfectly, and as plainly as they are
printed, if you expect to see them
spelled correctly when printed. Un-
less you are an invited, or a regular
correspondent, always send your own
name with the communication. With
the additional caution, that you should
always stop when you get through, we
leave the subject by saying chat these
hints are to all newspaper correspond
ents who may chance to read them.
