GUNTERSVILLE
United States Commissioner = New Court House Government Operations on
 the River Suspended.

Guntersville, Oct. 29.-(special.)-Th walls of the new court house at this place are now completed to the second story and the work goes steadily forward.
 Since circuit court adjourned business has been rather dull in this section of country. The late fall in cotton has checked in a measure the marketing Of the crop for the present, and corn is so low that very few persons will sell at pre- Vailing prices.
 Mr. Samuel Fowler of St. Clair county has been appointed United States com missioner at this place. We have needed q commissioner for many years, but 1t has been hard matter to get one ap- pointed here. Persons arrested for viola tions of the federal statutes have been carried to Huntsville and Attalla, some distance away, at an expense to the gov ernment and to individuals, and when put under bail they usually had to lie in jail several days or weeks before they could make bond.
 owing to the fact that it has become so cold that hands cannot be procured to work in the water, the government has about suspended operations on the river near this place. The waters are very lov> and it is certainly a good time to inn prove Boards reef and Gunter's reef, but the probabilities are the work will go over for another year, or maybe indefinitely.
 On Sunday, the 20th of this month, near the public road leading from Oleander to Arab In this county, Jeff Edmondson shot and mortalIy wounded Ben Hipps. Edmondson is Hipps' nephew by mar riage. They lived in the same settlement. Several years ago they ran a government still together and had some falling out. In the settlement of the distillery bus mess Hipps became indebted to Edmond son for some hogs and corn On the day of the shooting Edmondson met with Hipps and asked him for the money. The latter claimed a setoff for damages. Ed mondson threatened to sue him. Hipps became angry, drew pistol and shot at Edmondson twice. Edmondson returned the fire. The deceased was drinking and Edmondson seems to have tried to avoid the difficulty. Edmondson was liberated on bail
 John Baxter says that the argument advanced by some persons that a de- creasng volume of sound currency is beneficial to the producing and debtor class of people is just about as apt, log ical and appropriate as the devil quoting scripture.

She was re- peatedly encored and created the greatest enthusiasm.

KICKING OVER A STRAW.

There has been some kicking of late re- lating to the distribution of mail at this postoffice. The State Herald is aware that Birmingham has beyond doubt the best postoffice officials in the south, and if anything has occurred authorizing a kick the parties need only to make their grievances known to have them rectified. The charge is that mail received in the afternoon is not opened in many in- stances until II o'clock next day. In this there must be some error, as the State Herald receives letters on almost every mail and we have experienced no trouble. Possibly you are kicking over a straw.
