Register,

Prof. 11inrichs has seen the meteor
and thus writes of its composition:
I have just returned from Emmet,
the place where the two meteors Of the
great meteor of May 10th have fallen.
Both contain more than the ordinary
percentage Of nickehferous iron, and
may be classe.l rs syssiGleres, of which
but few have yet been found.
The syssideres contain the iron In 4
continuous, sponge-iike mass, while the
spora1osiderss consist mainly of stony
:lnatter with separate grams Of iron dis
seminated throughout the mass. The
two Emmet county meteOrites are sys-
stderes the Amana metz Qrltes Of Feb,

A Local Postal Discussion.

The question has often been asked
"Can receipted bill pass through
the mail as third class matter :"
There appears to be difference in
opinion On this subject by many of our
business men, some contending that it
can while others are of the opinien that
it can not. This morning represen-
tartive of the REPUBLICAN called upon
Postmaster William Pyle, in order to
get MS opinion Of the case. The
P. M. decided that all printed bills
with statement Of goods received in
writing. not receipted and not having
any additional writing would be third
class matter and subject to one cent
postage for each ounce or fraction
thereof but all written bills whether
receipted or not, are subject to letter
postage. A printed bill with the
words Received Payment" or "please
remit" is also subject to letter pos
tage, but the words "shipped via. P.
W. & B. R. r." or any other route is
admissible.

Constable Neary, yesterday, attached
two carts, a horse and set of harness,
the property Of James Kerns, at the
suit Of John H. Canning. Mr.. Neary,
after attaching the articles, impounded
them upon the property and in the

Last night about twelve O'Clock Mr..

Kerns and an accomplics, named Stewart
Oliver, were removing the carts forci-
bly,. Constable Neary Immediately re-
paired to the scene and found one Of
the carts in possession Of Kerns and Oil
yer and the other hid in the rear of Oil
ver's house. The constable arrested the
parties and this morning preferred a
charge of larceny against Kerns and
Oliver was held as an accessory. At
the hearing this morning the evidence
was conclusive that Kerns and Oliver
removed the carts, and the Squire held
Ksrns in $500 tor court and Oliver in
$1,000, under special act 4S5, Vol. Is.

Badly Rurned.

Between three and four o'clock yes
terday afternoon, a young man named
Lemey who is a salesman at the pro
vision store on the N. 4. corner of
Fourth and Pine, undertook to make a
fire in the stove, but as the flames did
not burn up as fast as he desired, he
went to the coal oil can and poured
some of fthis liquid into a quart meas
ure and then poured the contents on
the fire. At that instant the flames
darted into his face and hastily shut
ting the door the flames rushed up
the chimney with such velocity
as to force the fire board out. The
draft rushed out into the room with
such force that it frightened the lady
occupying the house, although no
serious damage was done. The neces-
sary remedies were applied at once to
his face, which was burnt quite badly
but not seriously.

Death in an Ayiary.

Mr.. Samuel Schultz, tObacconist, at
No. 2 Il. Fourth street, who keeps and
aviary in the second story of the Rob-
inson building,N. L. corner Fourth and
Market, had an accident whereby some
nineteen of his most valuable birds
were killed. On Sunday morning at
eight O'Clock when he went up stairs
to feed them he found the above num-
Der of canaries dead and the others
dying. This was caused bya great
amount of gas which came from a de-
fective tlue. The loss to Mr.. Schultz
is about $50. There were about 35 of
the birds in the room, sixteen having
recovered. Mr.. Schultz supposes that
a lot of dirt had become lodged in the
chimney, as during the winter season
previous the birds were all kept in the
room with safety.

THE OTHER SIDE.
'"Truth" Evidently Not the Angel.
fc Loving Husband He Processes
to Be-The Wife's Story.

In answer to the piece over the sig.
nature Of "Truth," published in Satur-
days REPUBLICAN, We have been hand
cd the following from the accused wife,
which we deem it but just to that lady
to publish. The following is the wife's
reply:
MEssRs. EDITORS In your issue Of
Saturday last you published card evil
denlly from the pen of a man whom l
have been unfortunate enough to call
husband, wherein he accuses me of all
manner of crimes, infdelity, etc., yet
all through breathes sort of sycopban-
tic, hypocritical sentiment which he
calls love and affection for me. will
not attempt to take up his charges in
detail, and deny then separately, but
will say emphatically that his villifca-
tions from beginning to end are false,
false as the mind that coined them.
l have left his home Mr.. Editor on
different occasions, but I've left 1t be-
cause said home has been cleaned out
on the warrant of landlord, the goods
being seized because this affectionate
husband would not pay the rent.
Twice have l myself, with money earn
ed by my hands, redeemed the goods,
after they have been levied upon, and
six different times since l married
Davis have the goods been seized. T
left him also because he would not or
could not support me. When he did
work and earn money he gave me q
meagre pittance each week, and even
to the expenditure Of that he was so
dictatorial that l was filling the position
OF a slave to tyrant.
After | left the home which he would
netsupport, l went to different places to
find work, and no matter where 1t was
he would follow me and persecute me
until | would be compelled to leave and
search for another place. That is why
l went to Philadelphia on the occasion
lf which he speaks, and that is why l
reside there now, simply because l have
work there. As far as the gentleman
is concerned to whom he alludes, will
say that the wife of that gentleman is
a firm friend of mine and have had no
other relations with him than those
might with propriety have had with
any one else who befriended me.
All l ask from this man who claims
to have suffered so much is to let me
severely alone and l will guarantee
him that he will never be troubled with
me or mine have been compelled to
earn my own living and am determined
to do it without having him to tyraniza
over me. For he has also, and that
they recently maltreated me in
a shameful manner. l am of
the opinion Mr.. Editor that
woman who is suffering at the hands
Of brutal jealous husband has as
much right to better her condition as
the husband would have if the case was
reversed. And am determined to do
it, and if he will not cease his perse-
cution otherwise shall call the law
to my aid in this matter, as l most en-
reiterats that will support
myself in the future without any die
tation from him Yours, etc.

But one case occupied the attention
Of His Honor at police court last even
ing, that of Harry Lee charged with
stealing $45 from the trunk of Cathar-
iue MeGrenna, proprietress Of the Della
ware House.
The robbery occurred on the 23d inst.
but the papers refrained from publish
ing it, at the request of Chief Maxwell,
who was after a supposed accomplice
whom Harry had implicated. Harry
himself had been captured at Dover,
by Chief Maxwell the day after the
robbery, and since his incarceration
has implicated several different parties.
One of these named Purnell.
Harry saidthat he had given $40 of
the stolen money to Harvey Henry.
Yesterday Henry confessed to having
committed the robbery on his own
hook.
The Chief had succeeded in having
the money returned for several articles
which Henry had bought with the sto-
len funds. Henry had nothing to say
and His Honor held him in 5000 for
