receive the constant aud cordial sup
port of those whose interests it guards.
The Democratic party must largely rely
upon these papers for the spread Of in
formation and wholesome political dec

,culd, take a@ay single subscriber
from such papers; on the contrary, it
aims to encourage and strengthen them
There is, however, field for paper
devoted to the discussion Of problems,
political, economic and social, which
sffect the people CT the entire couotry.
The local weeklies, of course, treat Of
these to certain extent; but so much
spsce must be given to city, county
ard state matters that they cannot pos
sibly discuss them as thoroughly as a
paper devoted exclusively to su,h ques-
tions. The local papers aud The Com

MYSTERIOUS Murder.

The headless trunk of man was
found II the Ocnulgee River, on the
lower point Of Oaky Bluff, Ca, where
it had Grifted during the recent high

man was murdered, as the head was sp-
parently severed from the body with an
axe, and there are wounds in the chest
and sbdomen, which were inflicted with
an axe. Tbs body has apparently been
in the water for about two months and
there is nothing about it which gives a
clue to the identity. a dispatch from

They gained the respect of the commu

to the attic floor OF the state, war and

kept, and where cots had beeen placed
for them in the corridors. The ofi'ers
who were TO remain with them occu
pied the cfi,e rooms, from which the
furniture had been removed.
These Puerto Ricans were in striking
contrast to the Pennsylvania militia
men who occupied the lower corridors
Of the same building, and who made
the structure ring with their hubbub,
ahich increased in volume hourly as
long as they remained in the city and

night Of March 4 The PennsylvaniaDs

Of their officers, and between the enlist

in some cases made up Of uioe en-

The corridors used as quarters by
