A FOUL CRIME.—A few days since, while a young man named Williamson was chopping wood alone in the forest, two or three miles north of Martinsville, he was approached by three men, all unknown to him, who demanded his money. He replied that he had no money, whereupon the desperate fiends proceeded deliberately to castrated him. After the foul deed was committed, he made his way to Martinsville, where he received medical attention. The above are substantially the facts as related by the suffering victim himself. Four criminals escaped from the jail at Charleston on Thursday night, and from the description of them given by Williamson, it is believed that three of these were the wretches who committed tbis brutal deed. The young man was to have been married in about a week.—Marshall Hirald, "Z

President's Message.*

Here is the full text of the message sent to Congress on Thursday, a synopsis of which appeared in our last issue: To the Senate and House of Representaticcs

A condition cf affairs now exists in some of the States of the Union rendering life and property insecure, and the carrying of mails and collection of the revenue dangerous. The proofs that such a state of affairs exists in some localities are now before the Senate. That the power to correct these evils is beyond the control of the State authorities I do not doubt but the power of the Executive of the United States, acting within the limits of existing.laws, sufficient for the present emergency, is' not clear therefore, I urgently recommend such legislationjaa in the judgment of Congress shall effectually secure life, liberty and property in all .parts of the United States.

It may be expedient to provide that such law: as' shall be passed .in pursuance of this recommendation shall expire^ at the end of the next Congress.

There is no other subject on which I would recommend legislation during the present session. (Signed) U. 8. GRANT.

A NEWSPAPER A THOROUGHFARE.— The Louisville Courier-Journal hit truth square on the head when it printed the extract below, and we commend it to a few of our business men: "We have received a note from aMain street house complaining of our advertising rates. Our correspondent alleges that we charge more than our local contemporaries. We don't know what Our contemporaries 'charge, but we should think we do charge more. The firm which has addressed us on the subject stands in need of instruction. It will give us leave courteously to remind it that advertising is business, not pleasure or favor, and at the same time to'suggest thai it ha3 the same liberty to advertise, where it sees fit. At present it sees lit to pay a large rental on Main street. But if it will come back to Green or go out as far as York it will find rents much cheaper. The Courier-Journal is a thoroughfare, and places of buisness on either side of its somewhat over-crowded length and breadth being valuable, are charged for accordingly." ri
