Monday afternoon, while Miss Eliza
Chamberlain, 10 years old, was going
from her fathers house, on horseback,
to a neighbors, she was pulled from her
horse by burly negro. All her cloth.
ing was stripped from her, and she was
most 6endishly outraged and Others
wise cruely treated. She tainted and
lay in the road more than an hour,
when she revived and dragged herself
to neighbor's house about mile dis
tant, where she went into spasms, and
her life was for time despaired of.
The police and citizens were in active
search of the negro yesterday, and one
answering to the description given by
Miss Chamberlain was arrested here
last night. People in the neighbour

ed,and swear they will hang the mons

The Post Master Generals
Views as to Reducing the
Postage OH Third Glass
Mail Matter,

New York, Nov. "a. Postmaster
General Jewell had a conference yes
terday with several publishers and
Informally discussed the question Of
the Repeal ofthe Law imposing double
rates OF postage on third class matter.
After tho discussion the Postmaster
General said he supposed NIL publish
ers were interested in having the
postage on books put back at the old
rate, or at least, he would consider the
matter and give his opinion respecting
it in communication he was prepar-
ing for Congress. The Postmaster
General said he had heard q great
deal of talk about tho departments
charging more for sending matter to
Chicago than is charged for sending
such matter to Liverpool or Russia,
but that he didn't think it was gener-
ally known that 1t costs more TO send
mail matter to Chicago than il did to
send tito liverpool or Russia. The
expense Of his Department is thirty
four million year, whilo tho receipts
are only twcnty-scven million, and
with deiiciancy Of eight millions
staring them In the face, he doubted il
Congress would look favorably upon
proposing to reduce the present rate
of postage on magazines and hooks.
