suicide at the American House.

Some three weeks since there ar
rived in this city aman who registered
himself at the National hotel un-
der the nome of +. l. Kirkwood, New
York, where he boarded until last
Tuesday, when he settled his bill and
let, going to the American house, sit
uated on Main street. He complained
for several days Of being sick, stating
he was ring from q nervous head
ache. Saturday night he retired rather
early, and the next morning, being
called for breakfast several times, aud
falling to answer, the landlord bursted
open the door ami found the man ly-
ing on the bed in "a state of stupefcs-
ton. with two ounce vial labelled
spirits of eamphor close by. All eff
forts 20 arouse him proving futile, Doc
tors Morton, Walton and Martin were
summoned, but the poison having
been thoroughly absorbed, he was be
yond al medical aid, and at balfpast
eleven o'clock died. Justice Mcclure
held an inquest over the remains, aud
averdiet was rendered that the de
cetsed came to bis death by an over
dOse Of spirits of camphor. His re
mains were inferred the same evening

rated TO ny, Withholding the name of
the owner OF the property for fear OF
doing him an injustice, inasmuch AS it
might injure the renting or sale of tha
house. On thoroGghllre, no matter
where, there stands house which
to person inclined to be-
lieve in spOoks wears weird
and supernatural! look, An air of mys'
terious seGresy hangs around the build
ing which seems to indicate that
within its walls some terrible crime
had been enacted.
The gentleman from we obtained
these facts moved into the house Il
few weeks since with his wife and lit
tie six year old son. On the evening
of the first day of their occupation,
about twilight, while they were ut sup

one was handling newspaper. This
continued 70. some five or ten min
utes, with great alarm TO the wife and
no little astcnishmeut to the husband
The child, who sat by his mother, gazed
so intently at a vacant place beside
the table, that his mother asked him
what he saw. His, to them, startling
answer was, 81 see the man reading q
newspaper" The mother was fright

was thoroughly convinced that the
child was gifted with second sight
The little fellow was by no means
alarmed, for he took the appartion
to be II visitor of his fathers
The father piled his son with
questions concerning what he saw,
and succeeded in learning from the
child that the gbastly visitor was AZ

wearing glasses, and that he was read
ing "a newspaper which made thi

mother was so badly frightened tina
she declared she would not, undei

was she about the matter that the hus

Now Postal Regulation.

The following new regulation
Of the Post Office Department,
will be especially interesting to
millers and others: ''The permits
sion granted postmasters to ad-
NIT into the mails packages OF
flour or sugar, when in their opin-
ion the packages were so wrap
ped rs to prevent leakage, has
been revoked by the Postmaster
General, as it is found that in
most cases the contents of the
mail pouches are injured by them.
Nevertheless, sealed packages.

in the absence of any knowl-
edge of their contents. must be
forwarded in the mails"

The Mississippi Pilot embraces
the present excellent OppOrtuni-
ty to offer the following remarks:
Riots are prevailing in many of
the Northern Ssates, and the civ
il authorities are compelled to
call on the President TOR troops
to aid in suppressing them.
In 1875 riots prevailed all over
this State, and men were murder
ed byNhundreds, the main object
being to kill and intimidate Re
publicans, while the main object
of the strlkers-or riOters-of the
North is to COMPEL an increase,
or drevent a decrease, in their
wages; and if not interfered with
no lives are endangered. When
the riots prevailed in this State
and Governor Ames called on
the President for troops, a great
cry went up from the sentiment
al and dough-faces Republicans
of the North not TO send them;
"Let him call out his MALTA and
suppress his riots" This time the
shoe is on the other foot, and the
sentimentalist's money and prop
erty arc i'll jeopardy, and we ven
ture to say that, in nine cases
out of ten, they are the first to
cry for national interference, for
they are the last ones to endan-
ger their lives or money by try
ing or aiding in suppressing the
riots. They now cry, "Glve us
soldiers to protect our property"
but when Republican lives were
endangered, and their rights were
being taken away, they cried,
"Do not interfere; let them call
out their militia and protect
themselve s."

SO that on any question a fair
comprosise may be effected. a
member of the Cabinet in a re-
cent conversation, spoke of this
plan, and argued that Congress
has a right to pass such a law UNI
der the clause of the Constitution
authorizing that body of regulate
commerce with foreign nations
and among the several States and
with Indian tribes. Such Com
mission might be vested with
power to examine into the desir-
ability of chartering new rail
roads, and might require certain
conditions to be fulfilled, so as to
establish a reasonable certainty
that projected roads would be re
munerative, and that the com
pany would have the means to
pay for its construction, and thus
avoid disastrous failures.

Texas Wheat Crop.

Mr.. Z. w. Norwood writes us
from Denton county Texas that
Mr.. John harrison raised CSC
bushels of wheat on 20 acres Of
land this year. That is an aver.
age of 32t bushels to the acre.
He says 8 of the 20 acres produc-
ed 40 bushels to the acre, and
other only 70 bushels, while the
other IS acres averaged 80 7-l5.
No wonder John raised so much
wheat-he is a Bradley county
bow.

INDIAN

a press dispatch from Lewis
ton, dated Aug. 1st, says: Yes
terday Indian Joe and his band,
who have been with the people
at Slate Creek. all through the
Indian troubles and proved true
and faithful to the whites, return
ed from Kamiah, where they had
been sent to ascertain the move
ments of the hostiles. His squaw
says the Indians at Kamiah told
her they were going across the
mountains by LOlo trail with
their stock and families, and
when they got them in a secure
place they would return and fight
the soldiers. She also states that
before leaving Kamiah they
went to the friendly Indians
camp and drove off all the young
sQuaws, beat them with clubs and
forced them along like SO many
cattle; also came back and rob
bed them of everything they
could find and all their horses of
any value. She further stated
that the hOstiles are to be rein
forced by other indians from the
| other side Of the mountains when
they return. Her statements are
considered reliable by those who
have known her.
This morning Lieut.. Wilmot.
with thirty men, started to 60
across Salmon River to ascertain
if any hostiles remain there. 1t
has been reported for several
days that a few have been seen
in that direction, and the object
is to hunt them out and destroy
all supplies2e,. -
1t is now believed by old ac-
quaintances Of Joseph thathe will
put away in safety his stores and
extra horses and return to Camas
prairie, returning by Elk City or
Petite trails, which are much
more easily travelled than LOlo.
This trip with q forced march, be
made in about seven days. 1t is
now asserted that his determine
ton is to burn the grain on Ca
mas prairie and then arrange his
plans to 90 to Willowa, and the
opinion is prevalent that he will
atte mpt it.

A Chattanooga friend" wites
us about some of Gen. Wilders
exploits around that burgin the
fall of '63. We don't care any.
thing about what Gen. Wilder
did in "63,"neither have we any
interest in what he is doing now.
AS we have said before, we be
lieve he will make an excellent
officer and will attend strictly to
his duty, but that was not the
question at issue
The question is why does the
President claim that he wants
men in office that will attend
strictly to their official duties
and let politics alone, and then
when he finds one of that kind
turn him out to make place for a
professional Office seeker? The
fact is the President knows very
little about the appointments Of
Postmasters in small lows, and
Mr.. Key is running the thing the
best he can to inJure the R9pub-
lican party. What interest has
Mr.. Key in the Republican party?
none of couse-he's a Democrat,
and it is to his interest to injure
the Republicans as much as pos
sible, and he is succeeding very
we'll. No one can expect him to
do otherwise. Were he to do it
he would be a traitor to his own
party indeed.

TIE Washington Republican
SAYS of the Republican candidate

THE Washington Republican
says of the Republican candidate
for Governor in Ohio:
Judge VIM. II. West, the Re
publican candidate for Governor
Of Ohio, is now entirely blind,
His eyesight, which was much i'm
paired for many years, gave en-
tirely out a year or two ago. His
defective vision does not at all
impair his personal appearance,
which is very fine, nor has it in
the least interfered with his eX-
tensive law practice. He has since
he became blind argued a num-
Der Of important cases i'll the Su-
preme Court of Ohio and other
tribunals with great ability and
effect. He has also during the
same period, by the aid OF an
amanuensis, written q great many
importaHtppblic papers upon po-
litical topics for the press, and he
continues to address public meet
ings with his usual good effect.
He will no doubt make an active
canvass Of the State.

The Presidents Message.

A good portion Of the Presidents
message upon the resembling Of
Congress will be devoted to the
consideration of labor question.
1t is known that at numerous Cab
met meetings held within the
past two weeks this subject has
in several instances been discuss
ed, to the exclusion of all other
matters. Several members of
the Cabinet are known to favor
