We would respectfully and kindly inform
All persons who wish 10 announce the names
OF their friends rs candidates for public Offices
through the columns of the SENTINEL, that the
same is charged for at reduced prices This
notice is occasioned by the fact that several
announcements have been received with no
name attached, and we are az a loss to know 10
whom the lad" shall be charged. Those

day, unless there are signatures attached.
Time and again we have made suggestions
in regard to little improvements that could be
made about our public squares which should
demand the attention of our County Commits.
sioncrS bnt, strange rs il may seem, these
suggestions are Of no avail. We do not make
them out Of any spirit of fault finding, but

The Secretary Of the Treasury has directed
the Treasurer TO resume the issue OF ono and
two dollar notes under certain limitations
Hereafter the Treasury will send notes of
these denominations to sub-treasurers and
national banks upon requisition, aud will pay
them out at the cash-room Of the Treasury in
sums not exceeding ten dollars at one time
and to one individual The various sub
treasurers will pay these notes out under like
limitation. Much of the inconvenience that
has been experienced in business circles by
suspending the issue of small notes has re-
suited from the fact they were boarded to n
large extent, with the expectation that they
would command a premium

Their rviigioss faith. Kane seems to an ont
slider to Eave the power Of election over his
opponent. Latrobe is out for re- election and

want him longer, lot him expel from his mind
the idea Of reelection, with the consciousness
that he has served an honorable term, and not

The government has received advices from
Lieut.. Gen. Sheridan that an engagement on
Mexican soil Of partisans OF Lerdo ard Daz
was transferred across the Rio Grande to our
side OF the border. The United States forces
inierfered and captured some forty Mexicans
aud disarmed them. Gen. Sheridan applied
here for instructions. The subject was con-
sidered at the cabinet meeting on Friday,
7, and Gen. Sheridan was directed to hold the
prisoners for further orders. The Invasion of
American soil has thus been initiated by the
Mexicans, and the result may be of much i'm
portance in view of the delicate relations
now existing between the two governments as
a consequence Of the late cabinet Instructions
TO Gen. Ord.
