Here is another Testimonial
against the use OF patent outside
papers, aud coming from paper
That has been using them-ihe
West Point Nems--:s OF cousidera.
BILE weight
For the past two os three months
we have been using whsr Is called
a patent outside, but we are hearti.
~ disgnsted with it, aud have gone
back to our little home sheet again.
This is not because of any opposl.
tion to the llap Tut because it was
so annoying in our case. For in.
stance, one week, by mistake, only
1876 papers were scut us, conse-
quently we had to issue Il halt
sheet. Then the price was raised
after receiving few issues. A lit:
tie later two packages came about
the same time, one ,atcl jane 9th
and the other June 18th, and with
out noticing the date, the papers
dated tho 18th were worked off OF
the 9th, and those of tne 9th on
the 18th. This broke the camels
back and our healing was ordered
back, arriving in time tor this Is.
sue We'haveiio objection to the
system, but the annoyances attend
ing 1t would have run us entirely
crazy in three months more.

More Wonderful than the Comet.

New Orleans Times
One of the great attractions Of 4
comet is variety, which lends 10
each succeeding one the charm OF
novelty. We're the evening skies
dotted With nuclei with long flow
ing tails cUrving IN graceful sweeps
through space, they wonld not he
looked admiringly npon by the
masses OF the people, nor would
they be more frequently the subject
Of conversation than tue stars are
now.
But AZ present the world is as.
founded by rapidly recurring phe.
nomena. The eclipse has just
passed, "a softly radiant comet ia
visible in the northern skies, but
what is OF still greater import is,
that the tour planets which arc
nearest tue earth, Nenus-betweeIi
us aud the san--Mars, Jupiter aud
Saturn-heyoud our orbit, are all
strung out in line Of battle as It
were, in Aries, the FIRST sign OF tbs
Zodiac. Tms is Il phenomenon
which may never have occurred
before, and which, ii it takes place
again, will not be for hundreds of
years.
Next year Venus will be the ev.
cning Star-in the west, of course
--aud Mars, having completed tho
half OF his circuit round the sun,
will be on the same side with her
aS he was of old, when Homer sang
of he tall OF Troy. Jupiter will
hc IN Taurus aud Saturn will be
left alone, TO DC butted along By
the Ram. So all who appreciate
uncommon things should rise at
three o'clock on Il cloudless night
to witness the marvpls which the
heavens are displaying.
The order OF the planets, as at
present ranged, is Venus, brilliant
as baby moon, fartheSt east or
nearest the horizon, then Jupiter,
Saturn, aud fiery Mars at the top.
A little TO the north Venus the
Pleiades may be found, and ba.
tween the Pleiades aud the comet,
Caprlla snaps and twiukles, seem.
ingly conscious that 1t Is 0ne OF
the most beautiful of the fixed
stars. Such a wonderfully grand
SolIoeaiion Of celestial bodies will
never he seen again by any one
now living, aud the opportunity Of
witnessing it should not ee thrown
away.
Last Monday nieht was exceed
iugly favorable for observations,
aud those who then saw the
heavens have cause to congratu..
late themselves. Nov, unfortu
nately, the nights are frequently
cloudy, and Gpforo lung the moot
will appear upon the scene aud
ovcrpoO en- with bg light the glory
Of the more distant orbs, so tine
should not be lost.

done by slender man about .

said by those who profess to know
him that his uame is Gn.ttcau, aud
that he Is eX consul to Marsellles.
The man was arrested immediately
aud carried to police headquarters,
aud subsequently, r,movcd to Jail.
The shooting occurred in the Ia

" after the president had entered
walking arm in arm With Secretary
Blaine on their way 10 the limited
express train, which was ready TO
leave. Blaine, on hearing the pis.
tol shots, two in number, rushed in
the direction from which they came
with the view OF arresting the as.
sassin. Before reaching the nan
be noticed the President fall, and
returned to him and lifted hin up.
Both shots took effect, the first in
the right arm, aud the second INST
above the right hip, and near the
kidneys.
The physician probed for the
bail unsuccesstully. Two compa.
mes OF regulars were ordered from
the barracks. and have been posted
around the executive mansion.
Great excitement prevails, aud the
streets are thronged with anxious
rnqurcrs, eager to learn tile con

ing occurred in the presence OF
fifty or sixty ladies'.
As soon as those y ho surrounded
the president recovered their nj
most paralizcd senses a mattress
was brought down from the Pull

laid upon it. Blood was oozins
from his wounds and soaking

He vomited pfofusely. He wal

A. L. KNAPP.

ST. Louis, May pa special to the St.
Louis Republican from Springfield, His,
says:
Hon. A. L. Knapp died at his residence
in this city this evening at eight o'clock of
dropsy of the heart and lungs, aged fifty
three years. Mr.. Knapp represented the
Jerseyville district in the State senate in
the Twenty-first and Twenty-second ses-
sions of the general assembly, from 1858
to 1861; also the Springfield district in the
Thirty seventh and Thirty eighth congress
es of the United States from 1861 to 1865,
as the Democratic member, after which he
moved to Chicago where he was married.
Coming to Springfield in 1867, he has re-
sided here since. He became partner in
the law firm of Robinson, Knapp & Shut
of which he was a member at the time of
his death.
The deceased ranked among the leading
members of the bar in this state, and was
a well known and honored citizen. He
has been i'll for the past three months, but
was not supposed to be dangerously i'll un-
til within the last few days. A wife and
son survive him.

BRAVERY REWARDED.

Captain Charles Gnewich, of the tug
Williams, of Manistee, has just received
the gold life-saving medal awarded him
for saving lives, by act of Congress, June
20, 1874. The medal was sent him by Sen
ator Ferry, under date of May II, and ac-
companying it is a eulogistic letter from
Secretary Window. The medal is of solid
gold, about two inches in diameter, and
said to contain about $50 in value of gold.
Secretary Window, in his letter says: The
papers presented to the department in this
case show that at various times since the
date of the law authorizing the reward of
medals for such acts. you have saved
from drowning in the waters of Lake
Michigan twenty-four persons, and in
nearly every instance at the imminent
peril of your own life. In November,
1874. you rescued two men from cap
sized fish-boat during northwest
snow-storm. In October, 1879, you or
ganized crew and went out in a frail
boat during terrible gale to save six men
clinging to a capsized schooner which was
completely broken up. Half an hour after
you achieved their deliverance. In Febru-
airy, 1880, you dragged out from the ice a
man on the point of perishing, and took
him home to his wife and four children.
In April, 1880 five time in succession you
drove up you tug alongside a foundering
schooner over which the sea was sweeping in
theheight of furious tempest, and succeed
ed by this noble tenacity in taking off the
eleven men on board twenty minutes be-
fore the vessel went down. Finally, in
October, $780, you went out in a fearful
gale and towed safely into port dismantl-
ed vesael with her crew of four"
Captain Gnewick is as modest as he is
brave, and has made no parade of his
heroic deeds

CATCH THE CAPTAIN.

The St. Louis Republican states that last
Thursday Capt. Samuel c. Club, receiver
of the Keokuk Packet company, under the
authority of the St. Louis circuit court,
filed in the q. S. district court a libel
against the steamboat E. w. Cole and
owners; The suit was based on a charter
by the Keokuk Packet company to the
steamer Cole of the barge G. W Duncan
for single trip up the Mississippi river,
at $13 per day. The bill alleges that the
boat was held for 48 days, creating an in
debtedness of 1854, of which S179 only
was paid, leaving 1856 still due and un
paid, The boat had left this port and
the warrant of arrest was placed in the
hands of Deputy United States Marshal
Doherty for service, and he started down
the river to intercept the boat before
she got away from Cairo. He found
her at Fillmore, on the Kentucky shore,
and went on board and when she got out
into the stream on the Missouri shore he
attempted to serve the writ on her
Davis replied, there is no authority to
arrest boat on her passage; an arrest
must be made in port, and nothing but a
file of soldiers could stop her now," The
deputy marshal scarcely knew what to do,
but remained on the boat for little while
and was put ashore, at his own request, about
twenty miles below Cairo. He reached
this city on Saturday night and yesterday
morning the facts in the case were stated
to the United States authorities here. a
warrant for the arrest of Capt. Davis was
issued and an officer was sent out with ii
with the expectation of catching up with
the boat before she got away from Mem
phis.
