The Mails Again.

A dispatch was received this forenoon
from Mr.. D. w. G. Rowland, superinten-
dent of the railroad from this point at
Louisville, KY, regarding the criticisms
of the newspapers upon the non
delivery Of the mails in accordance with
the contract. Mr.. Rowland says the chief
trouble is the u~nwillingness Of the people
at the interior stations along the line of
the road to the passage of trains, and
that whenever the people are willing
to permit trains to pass unmolested the
road officials will be equally willing to
carry a daily mail. They are in commu-
nication with the authorities at Wash
ington and are confident that a mutually
satisfactory conclusion will be arrived at.
The chances are that in ten days or so
the people of the interior will be as anx-
ious as we are here to get a daily mail.

Peter Gillem was bailed out the other
day by Messrs. Lenow and Phillips Of the
cemetery, but in spite of this Peter is a
very bad niger, one who is a terror to
the people of the suburbs, and many a
mother and timid girl have been made to
pass sleepless nights on account of his
howls and argies, his threats and BIAS
phemy, yet somehow Peter has always
managed 10 escape punishment for his bad
conduct. His wife, Eliza, is also classed
as no good. Peter is in for it now for
the summer at least, he having been sent
to Jail without the benefit of bail, on a
charge of being implicated in the murder
of Uncle Billy Mcdonald one night last
week. Allen Brewster, Chas. Roy and
Milt Boone have also been sent to Jail
without bail, while Eliza Gillem and
JAS. Shields are under arrest us parties to

The farm known as the Webb place is
the site Of Camp Marks. 1t is the same
which met with so much favor a few
years since as a suitable locality for the
State Insane Asylum, but which measure
was eventually defeated through political
or jealous influences. In all the country
round could a more attractive or better
adapted place for a camp be found, and
5000 people should go there to reside
before the present week closes.

Several additions to the population are
expected outside of the usual channels Of

Lyle went to the camp on Friday and

tent and no communication is allowed
with persons in the camp.

the same as when our population was

about the corners, or passing along the
