The Salt Lake Tribune publishes the ioi-
lowing: If any of our readers are aware of
the whereabouts Of George Walker, who
formerly lived at Coalville, they will confer a
great favor upon the Federal officers and the
cause OF justice, by informing us of where he
is to be addressed, Or of any information
leading to such knowledge. He is supposed
to be in Montana. Our exchanges can do
much toward bringing to justice a dozen
murderers by reprint:ng this request.

in various parts of England, and espec-

Saturday night. The storm was attend
ed by fall of hailstones, some of which
were five inches in circumference. The
damage to glass in places Immediately
around London amounts to thousands
of pounds sterling.
In great part of Bedfordshire, the
hay crop has been completely swept

Kentucky Election.

kilograms from various parts of the
State show tremendous falling off in
the Democratic vote cast at the election
last Monday, as compared with previ-
Gus contests. The Democratic Central
Committee estimates the total vote at
not over 100000, falling off of over
$4,000 on the Tilden-Hayes vote, and of
over $4,000 on the last Gubernatorial
vote. The Republicans make slight
gains in the Legislature, and defeat the
Speaker of last House, but the Demo-
cratic majority is still overwhelming in
the General Assembly. The call for a
constitutional convention fails for want
of constitutional majority in its favor.
The Greenbackers cut no figure in the
