hard labor in penitentiary for eighteen
months and to have the facts respecting his
crime and its punishment published in the

was appointed to tho army" is the sentenae
of Paymaster Wasson, who stole thousands of
dollars of public money in order that he
might pay "debts of honor" contracted at the
gaming table. 1t is reported from Texas that
two thirds of the officers who composed the
court martial which tried Maj. Wasson united
in commanding him to the clemoncy of the
higher military authorities whose approval is
required before the sentence can be carried
into effect and that Brig. Gen. Augur, the
commander of the department Of Texas, who
reviewed the proceedings and findings of the
court martial, approved them and disapproved

pistol practice always does its work. During
school exhibition at Sulphur Well, Metealfe
county, in that state, few days since, Mr. M.

carp and object to the employment of women
in the public service. Now that years of

Up to 1860 there were very few women en-
ployed in any of the departments at Wash

At the present writing out of about {, 400 en-

200 are employed in the pension Office, and

probably small value, for the Erie paymaster
The train messenger of the express company
on the arrival of the train at Susquehanna
handed the agent or sub'agent of the express
company there sealed bag, supposed to hold
tho above described contents. But on taking
the same into his ofIico and opening the bag
the express agent found nothing but brown
paper inclosed. The express agent thereupcn
notified the bank of his discovery, and tele
gram was sont to the Marine National bank,
which bank at once replied that If the first
package did not reach Susquehanna that day
they would send another of the same amount
forthwith, which it did, aud the employees
were paid the next morning. The express
company are the only losers, and their officials
are thoroughly investigating the matter.
