On Monday, August lst, at 6 o'clock
Mrs. DIR. t. w. Bird, living near Ham.
ilton, Roanoke county, Arkansas, gave

pounds, with its brains on the outside

veloped, has no deformity, save that
the eyes are inclined to stand out.
The child has no forehead. Its cram.
UNI is entirely gone, and where the
frontal should be is the child's brain.
Tho brain has its usuul covering of
membrane, but no skin or other COW
erng exists. On the back part of the
head, about an inch and a half from
the upper part of the neck, is very
coal black hair an inch and half long.
1t has black eyes, and the features are
regular. Tie child is healthy, well

received except from one, who declin-
ed. Chase Andrews, of Washington,
then offered to take the route for S.
900, and contract was made with
him Very soon afterward the route
went into the hands of Monroe Sails
bury. on sub-contract, at the full pay.
In this way it passed from the Barlow
combination to the Salisbury combina-
ton. 1t would have been much chea.
per for Gen. Brady to hold to his first
advertisement.
II has been said that all of the bid
ders above Evans, with one exception,
failed to respond to the circular which
gave them an opportunity to take the
route. The books exhibit that state
ment. Among the names against
which are written the words "no re-
ply" is that Of E. A. Stevenson, whose
bid was $4,000. Now, there was on
file with the papers in this case, sew.
eral months before the contract was
made with Chase Andrews, the follow
ing very plain letter:
IDAHO CRY, July 10, 1878
To the Postmaster General:
| hereby notify you that if any or all of
the persons whose bids for carrying the
mail on said route are lower than mine,
shall fail to enter into contract to carry the
same, or having tered into such contract
shall at any time afterward make default
by failing to carry such mails, l will con-
vey the mails over said route for the said
term or the unexpirod portion thereof up
on any reasonable notice, however short
for the sum per annum named in my said
bid. Yours respectfully
EDWARD A. STEVENSON.
Stevenson's bid was 81, 200 and he
was a practical stageman, with plenty
of stock at his disposal; aid yet, with
this letter lying with the papers and
accompanying his bid, Gen. Brady
gave the route to Andrews and the
Salisburys for $4,000. Stevenson's
letter was evidently written to be used
in just such an emergency as that
which followed Evans failure, and yet
it was ignored. The defense is that
the circular was sent to Stevenson.
who did not reply. This is not suf-
ficient defense to satisfy any man of
ordinary intelligence.
