There is some sickness in Jackson and
the surrounding country, and some cases
of scarlet fever, which may again be-

We stated last week that one OF our
subscribers in Liberty township had
refused to take his paper out of the Post
office, while he owed for more than a
years subscription. He sent in the mon
ey. and wrote that it was a lie-he never
refused his paper. Upon inquiry, we
found that the mistake was made by the
Postmaster.

Dollar Sales" have been under a cloud
in years past, and we know of only one
reliable house IN the business. We refer
to Orminston Il Co, whose adv'ts. appear
in our paper. Shis firm is reliable. They
are endorsed by over 10000 actual
patrons, as well as by the press of Boston.
1t is fact that they do sell for single
dollar what others charge Sl.50 to So for,
and their list embraces everything desir-
able. Many ladies make large pay get,
ting up clubs, and we believe it will pay
the house a trial. They send catalogues,

WASHINGTON HATTERS.

The friends of the Centennial are delighted wi h
the unanimous report of the committee favorng
an appropriation Of Sl.500000 in aid OF the cele-
bration.
Senators Logan and West appeared in their
seats Thursdsy-the latter from Louisiana. He
expressed confidence that ifproper speakers should
be selected to stump that State at the next cleo
ton, and they were not ot-gunned" ont of the
parishes, the republicans would carry the day.
Mr.. Blaine placed the democrats in a very un-
comfortable position by his proposition to amend
Randslls Amnesty bill, by excluding JEFF Davis
from its provisions. Randall had evidently in
tended to compel vote on his General Amnesty
bill, without allowing amendment or permitting
much debate on the republican side. He was
compelled TO admit as much. Under the rules
Blsine's amendment will be admitted TO be voted
upon.-Boston Journal Correspondent.
The Centennial Appropriation will come up on
Monday, and will undoubtedly pass, there is but
little opposition to it. The Amnesty bill will also
probably come up Gu Monday aul may cause a
lively debate, as Mr.. Blaine intends to adhere to
his amendment. This differs from Mr.. Randall's
bill in two respects II requires those seeking
amnesty to subscribe before proper cour, 10 an
oath of fidelity, and it excludes J, tIe.so Davis
entirely. As no amnesty bill can pass without a
two-thirds vote Of both houses and as the demo.
Gratis have not two-thrds of the House, they must
accept Mr.. Blaine's substitute or take the respon
sibility Of having the measure fail. The person.
remaining who would benefit by the act are chiefly
men who had held high Office under the govern
ment before the war OF had served in the old arm
and navy. Most Of them are men Of prominence
and they number in all, it is said, about sever
hundred. 1t 10 understood that the democrats
are not disposed to quarrel with the administerin.

mot even think it wise to make fight for Jeifer

The proposition made BY Mr.. Randall, in behalf
of the Committee on Appropriations, that the
House adjourn till Monday, called down upon
him severe rebuke from Mr. Fernando WOOD.
Mr.. Randall explained tina. the committee wantea
till Monday TO get one or two bills ready 10 pre-
sent to tie House. Mr.. Wood said there had been
two weeks vacation, and expressed deeiaeo
opipion that the committee ought to have had
something ready in that time. There'was no such
instance on record az a demand for time after
four weeks of the session in order to consider bills
ia committee. Mr.. Hale took occasion to point
ont III 1t last wear the House had not only received
Important bills from tie committee, but had passed
the Naval bill and sent it to the Senate Mr..
Wood thought this emphasized the necessity Tor
the IIouse TO 90 to work. Mr.. Randall explained
that the bills were being very carefully scrutinized
this year, with the view to reducing them without
interfering with the operato ns OF tie Government
and implied they had difficult task, requiring
unusual time. Mr.. Hereford agreed with the gen
tleman from New York. Mr. Morrison, the lead
err of the House, came to Mr. Randalls assistance,
and the adjournment was voted--yeas III; nays,
y. Mr.. Wood was light in saying this action
was unprecedented. Never In the history OF the
House has month been so utterly FILTERED away.

but has proposed nothing.-Times Correspond-
