non-arriyal of Office furniture promised 10
be sent three weeks ago-has worried the
proprietors not a little, but Monday it at last
came to hand, and to day Ironton has an
institution she may well be proud of. The
safe is of steel and of the latest and best de-
sign. and it's contents are rendered douDiy
cafe nv a Yale time lock in addition to the
ordinary combination locks. The furniture
of the office is elegant, being of cherry fin

and the graves of the dead decorated WIN
flowers. This being the first time the oay

The business of the q. S. Courts has peen
greatly embarrassed this spring all over the
country, owing to the failure OF Congress 10
appropriate enough funds TO pay their eA.
nenses. Marshal Emerson advanced several
shousand dollars to pay expenses since
March. but he has notified the Department
that. .sby the eternal," he won't do so any
more. The failure of Congress to act is the
cause of much suffering by poor jurors ana
witnesses. In consequence, Judge Thayer
has refused to order any jurles at Hannibal.
At Kansas City the jurors and witnesses
were sent.bome, prisoners turned loose and
court adjourned; and the same thing re-
Gently happened in Arkansas. }
