THE President has received letter from

death of the late king of Hanover.
The cabinet has approved the course of
the encouragement IN the case of four in
ternal revenue officers who, while in search
of Redmon, the illicit distiIler, killed in
self-defense man named Ladd, in whose
house Redmon was concealed. The officers
Immediately went to Greenville and gave
themselves up. They were indicted for
murder. An attempt was made to have the
case transferred to the state court. This
has been refused. The Encouragement
| announces that he will direct the United
States marshal to take out writ of habeaS
corpus for the transfer of the prisoners.
OWING TO numerous applications for reg
istered per cent. bonds, Of small demon
nations, the treasurer has been unable,
with all the clerical force which could be
employed thereon, to fill the orders as rap
idly as received. Purchasers of bonds
should understand, however, that the inter
est will run from the date of the payment
for the bonds, and not from the date of their
| issue, and that the little delay from time to
time, on account of the suddenly increased
| orders, will result in no loss or injury.
The president has appointed Thomas Hill
register Of the land office at Kirwin, Kan
sas, in place of Frank Campbell, suspended
The encouragement has sustained the
view taken 10y the second assistant post
| master-general that the law passed at the
last session of congress, authorizing pay
ments by the poStoffice department directly

applicable to contracts existing at the date
OF the enactment of the law, as well as to
those Of subsequent issue.
| ASSISTANT treaSurerS throughout the

ing checks, TO parties desiring them, dis
bursement of pay rolls, and in exchange in
moderate amounts for greenbacks and
national bank notes, aud for payment in
lieu of 81 and s. notes.
OWING to the recent legislation of con-
gress, it has been found necessary by the
secretary of the interior to make additional
dismissals and reductions in salaries of
patent office employees. Officers of the bu-
reau are now engaged in preparing a state
ment to that end. 1t is understood that
laborers aud messengers who heretofore re-
ceived 500 and 500 will be reduced to S55
per month, and attendants in the model
room will hereafter receive $500 per annum
ABOUT sixty female employees of the
patent office were discharged on 18th inst,
because of a reduction in the appropriations
The following assignments OF internal
revenue agents have been made: F. Meyer,
to do duty at Omaha, Neb.; Geo. W. Atkin
son, to the district of Virginia and West
Virginia; Edward Leet at Chicago.

A PITTsToN, Pa, woman, whose
child had the diptL.eria, was told by
the doctor In attendance that every
thing depended on keeping the throat
clear. She wrapped n piece of old
linen around her finger, and putting a
cork between the jaws of the patient,
proceeded to wash the child's throat
with salt wafer and alum. This mode
of treatment, though severe, was very
effective, and has since been recom-
mended by the physicians as superior
to the use of a swab.

Acting Under Excitement,

There Is a great fear on tho part Of
some amlable persons who write Tor

lhose who will take steps tor which
they will be sorry, They argue from
this, thai il Is not beet 10 have any
excitement At al aud especially that
nothing should be done under excite

the path ot progess has always been
marked by sudden steps upward and
onward, There are steady grown

There are communities thar would

which nothing but II public excitement
can break up, This condition may re-
late to u single subject or to many

possible that man under excitement
will do the thing that he has always
known to be right, aud be sorry Tor It

excitement was the only power that
would ever have started him Oh the

say that it would be u great deal bet
