AMONG

c!JBH0B^RCCT'Of''

ceremonies of laying the corner

stone of the "Southern Illinois Normal University," at Carbondale, will take place on Tuesday, the 17th day of May next. Gov.

PALMERhaa

consented to de-

liver the address on the occasion.

THE Republicans of Virginia City, Nevada, have nominated a colored man for Mayor and the Democrats, strange to say, will not bring out an opponent, but support the candidate of their political enemies, whtefc^hances for succes are therefore unu^flSly good and Virginia City bids fair to have the first colored Mayor ffvW elected in the United States. 'The West is determined to lead the van in all changes and reforms if possible. "Wyoming gave us the first female jurors, and Nevada will probably show how the lately enfranchised race will bear munici* pal honors.

THE

Louisville Courier-Journal is not

excessively complimentary to those Democrats who have so suddenly changed their hate for "the nigger" into affection for their colored brother. That paper Bays:

When a man who has been a rampant secessionist and a bull-headed hate* of aibolitionism all his life suddenly takes the negro to his arms as a long-lost brother or sister and commences to abuse the white people at the same time, you have but to point vour gun at him and pull the trigger if you wish to shoot down a full-blown scalawag in search oi negro votes.

SPANISH Republicans, tired of their quest for an honest President—a personage difficult to obtain outside of the United States—now demand the separation of Church and State. This is a most promising reform one which will be so popular throughout Spain that even PRIM,

the great evil genius of republicanism in his country, will not dare to op pose. Religious liberty is making rapid strides throughout Continental l^urope and if Spain wrests it from the hands of her new masters, she will have planted her feet firmly on the pleasant path that leads to freedom of opinion in things po litical as well as ecclesiastical.

THE

Philadelphia Inquirer has arrived

at the sensible conclusion that Retrench ment in the Military Bureau was never exercised more judiciously than in the order abolishing the Military Department of Alaska. This costly appendage to the Republic was established by

JOHNSON

ANDREW

in deference to the dignity, of

that great real estate agent, Hon. WM. H. SEWARD. The Major General and staff commanding the late "Department" up held the dignity ot' the "United States Government against Mount St. Elias, a half-score thousands of poor Indians, an almost illimitable wilderness, and countless shoals of seals—all of which are amply able to take care of themselves with out the costly retinue of a Major-General.

the few State Prisons which

are made profitable to the State is that of Massachusetts. Last year the receipts were $132,466.74. The stock on hand was $7,290.87, making a total of $139,757.71. The expenditures for that time were $104,020.84, which with the stock on hand in 1868, of $7,161 40, made a total of $111,181.24, showing a balance ot over $26,000 in favor of the prison. The Massachusetts State Prison, for the past three years, has yielded proli's as follows: 1857, $22,346.16 1867, $52,646.40, 1869 $28,556.05 total, $78,548.70. The con victs are hired by diflerent manufacturing companies, and are largely employed in the manufacture of furniture, gas fit tings, and boots and shoes. The statistics of the Massachusetts State Prisons show that it is possible, to make criminal labor profitable. But the statistics of most prisons show them to be enormous burdens of expense to the States.

CONGRESSMAN BROOKS,

having earnest

ly protested against taxing ladies' corsets—evidently desiring that the waists of the dear creatures should be free^ follows Mr.

MARSHAIX

and

in bewailing the

fate of the poor farmers, and said he would mount 4i peddler's wagon, and go through I he agricultural districts, exhibiting a hoe, a plow, an ax' a shovel, a trace-chain, a knife and fork, with other articles, and demonstrate to the eyes of the people the unjust, the enormous, the wicked taxation that is imposed upon them by the existing tariffs." Whereupon the Chicago Journal pertinently suggests that some other peddler might mount his wagon and tell how other industries arc even more heavily taxed, and then inform the people that it was necessary to pay the debt incured by the rebellion that the party to which BROOKS

MARSHALL

belong aided and

abetted. And, further, the aforesaid farmers might be enlightened by being informed that their new-found friends went to the Chicago Convention and voted that the war in which their sons and brothers were engaged was a failure, and that these farmers' boys were "LINCOLN'S hirelings," while members of that party in Congress are now clamoring for repudiation and free trade in thts yame breath. These are "notions"-' which Mr.

RUOOKS

ought not

to overlook when peddling his other wares in agricultural districts.

Ptebiscitum is a Latin-French compound of plebeian, common people, and seitum an ordinance, meaning in French a bill of rights to go before for Uieir votes.

MOBDEt OF AVERY BALLAMK

ADDITIONAL PARTICULARS

Verdict of the Coroner's Jury.

Special Correspondence Missouri Democrat.j WHiTfcanx, ILL., April 18, 1870^! THE VICTIM, .« Avery!%altod—a brief accoofat of whose murder was telegraphed you •on Saturday —was a farmer over seventy years of age, but hale aad hearty. He quit farming some time ago, and purchased property adjoining the western limits of the cor-* poration. He has a large number of children and grand-children residing in this vicinity and was respected by all as an honest, straightforward man, harmless, inoflensive, and as far as known was without an enemy in the world. In his case there appears to be a total absence of any motive which could influence a rational man to seek his life.

THE MURDER.

Just before noon on Saturday h^ was at Nelson & Brooks' store, and left thert in company with a stranger, (afterwards ascertained to be the murderer,) who had made arrangements to board with him unfit Monday. The two went directly to Ballard's house, took dinner, and shdrtly af.er Captain Hackney, who resides but a few rods distant, saw them at the wood pile, Mr. Ballard stooping over as though fixing a maul, and the stranger behind him with an axe, splitting wood.

A few minutes later Captain Hackney looked again and saw Mr. Ballard lying on the ground, and persons running towards him from the house, but ,the .other man had disappeared.

THE ALARM

was iofctantly given,'and in a few miuu'.es Constables T. P. Hackney and D. F. Shipman, with citizens on horseback and in wagons and buggies, or on foot, started in various directions to intercept the mur derer, believing tlpt he was endeavoring to escape Such »ra.3 not the case, for in less than half an'hour afcer committing the deed, he walked up to Tho3. Dodsworth, who wag standing in front of Dr. Dewits's office and

GAVE HIMSELF UP. ««i

Deputy Sheriff Thos. Davis at once took him to the calaboose. Scarcely had the doors closed upon him when a crazy, ex cited mob, led by men who should know better, began making preparations to lynch him. Threats to break open the calaboose and take the prisoner from the custody of the officers were freely uttered, and the mob seemed to grow in numbers and become more ungove-nable every moment. The officers, seeing they would probably be overpowered if they kept the prisoner in the calaboosc, and the 3:15 train being about due, started with him to the epot. Then followed

A RACE FOR LIFE,

and such a scene as it, is to be hoped will never again disgrace our town. The officers, assisted by a few resolute citizens, to whom all honor is due for the m.inly part they acted, reached a train of flat cars Which obstructed the crossing, in advance of the howling, bloodthirsty mob. But in endeavoring to hoist the prisoner over the obstruction, Constable Hackney was overpowered and his revol ver taken from him, his wrist being con siderably hurt in the struggle. After considerable tusseling, the prisoner was lauded in the calaboose car, ani^ .-the doors,, closed. By this time a number of leading citizens who were opposed to mob violence had rallied,' and notwithstanding persistent efforts- were made to uncouple the calaboose from the train, and to break in the doors, accompanied by threats and brandishing revolvers, the mob was held at bay by the cool determination of such men as W. P. Worcester, James Cochran, J. E. Bridges and several others, until the train started, and the prisoner was safely conveyed to Carrolton, and there lodged in jail.

Tt has been pretty -conclusively ascertained that TIIE MURDERER IS INSANE, and that he has been, on one or two occasions, an inmate of an insane asylum in Ohio. On the evening preceding the murder he called at Jpaes ^Israel's store and wished to exchange clothing, stating that some one wished to kill him, and he desired to disguise himself. AVhile at the store he procured a knife and cut all the buttons from his coat. He then went to C. Weitzel's tailor shop |and sewed them on again. But whether insane or not, his case will doubtless be thoroughly investigated, and the matter disposed of in a manner that'will conduce more to the peace aud security of community than any exercise of mob violence.

TUB CORONEIit's JURY,

summoned by Esquire Breuster to examine the case, returned a verdict that de ceased came to his death at the hands of Wm. F. Davis, aims Bill Davis, and that the deed was committed feloniously and with malace aforethought.

ADJUSTING BALANCES.

"An Old Problem Newly Stated."

From t'le Philadelphia Ledger] I'he .small actual proportion of money paper or spccie—to the circulation in adjustment of balances, was amusingly exhibited in a counting-room in Buffalo, a few days since. The Express records it as a "singnlar transaction. But it is not singular, or unusual, being only an illustration of the natural current of trade and exchange. Ordinarily the business agents are not all known to each other directly, and do not so consciously play in'.o each other's hands. But the little piece of fun which we are about to state, is a very neat illustration of the relations of debt, credit and currency. It is indeed better than many a long, unintelligible treatise on finance. Here is the Story:

The office boy owed one of the clerks three cents. The clerk owed the cashier two cents. The cashier owed the boy two cents. One day the boy having cent in his pocket was disposed to dimi nish outstanding indebtedness, and paid the clerk, to whom he was indebted three cents, one on account. The clerk, animated by so laudable an example, paid one cent to the cashier, to whom he was ndebted two cents. The cashier, who owed the boy two cents, paid him one. And now, the boy having again his cent in hand, paid another third of his debt to the clerk. The clerk, with the said reallv ''current" cent squarred with the cashier. The cashier instantly paid the boy in fr.ll. And now, .the lad with tfee cent a^ain in his hand, paid off the third ami last instalment of his debt of three cents. Thus were the parties square all around, and all their accounts adjusted.

This, as already stated, is a clear illustration of a part of the curious ramifications of debt and payment. And it illustrates also the wisdom as well aft the wit of the impecunions debtor, who replied to his troublesome creditor, "Go pay yonr own debts, and no* be teasing me about mine!" If the Buffalo boy had kept hold of his penny, and said to the creditor clerk, "1 wiil pay you as soon as the cashier}pavs|me,"tho gieat financial problem would probably have remained till this day unsolved, and nobody can tell what effect the delay wouid have bad upon the Buffalo "Exchange," and the balancc of trade with the Western country generally. But the boy p»id in part his own debt, and in the round of circulation the money came home again, to start on a new tour of liquidation.

For one penny read dollars—froni one to thousands and for the three persons in one officj substitute hundreds—aye, liiou sands of negotiators in a wide community, and yon lvaveTeforc you the problem of circulation." One cent

rteven cents of debt. It might just as well have paid seventy, or seven hundred, ifllin iiimwmn II: iMHF'been larger. The amount of money, or of tokens representing money, actually used and transferred from hand to hand in trade, bears a proportion to the business done less h»n even die one cent in seven. And much oftener than "jfeople know, or even •aspect, the identical money they pay out for debtor a new purchase, finds its way (ipckrtp fit! |he void in their pockets or purses. CSsh fiaymente in small transections are the life of trade. He who conscientiously pays cash or takes short credit, for the article 1 he buys for consumption and rse, does more in his sphere to keep up the wholesome current of trade than the man who writes on trade volumes which few persons read. While articles of commerce remain mere articles of commerce they are fit subjects of credit. But when they reach their ultimate purpose and cease to be productive in trade or in exchange they must^bftB|id for, otherwise they become capSR^NL dropped out of the business iifflu jlpntry, unavailable "as-

.!|Wln(feln story illustrates also the tlieorfP of banking, and shows now in prosperous times the comparatively small coin basis answers all the purposes of "specie payments." If bank notes represented only the actual specie in bank they would not pay the expenses of printing, signing and issuing. They would be at a premium, and specie would be at a discount. The public pay for their bank notes on account of convenience, their only recommendation, on tbe same principle that they pay a drayman for transporting a keg of specie, or pay freight to any common carrier. Bank notes in their capacity of representative of money also represent other property of all kinds, and credit also, as well as specie. But, if the boy in the story had owed four cents instead of three, his penny in cash and his two cents in assets would not have squared the accounts.. The fourth cent, still unpaid, without either cash or assets behind ir, would have le't him bankrupt and his creditor crippled.— Money is an enigima. So is life. But as to preserve the latter people must take care of their health,. and not eat what they cannot digest, so in all business matters, great and small, they should not open their mouths for more than they can swallow

SINGULAR

what absurd idea? the" East

ern folk have of'the West! Now here, for instance, is the New York Herald advocating the organization of a "grand emigration scheme to supply the surplus of Eastern women with husbands in tbe West." As if th^ supply of women we-e not already greater than the demand" The men of the East had be ter "husband their own resources," and not send thei "surplus women" out West to render the already slim chances of the Western girls still more desperate. Not withstanding the superior attractions of the p.ai ie flowers, they would stand no chance when pitted against the maneuverin, mammas and thin-visage spinsters of .Yankee land. If this emigration project is pushed there will be counter organizations formed in the West, and a wa of the laces will ensue whic.i will bring de struction to the chignons of the unfair invaners. Let them be warned in time Our girls will stand no foolishness when it comes to a question of a husband or a fight.
