O. E. BITTEE, District Cltrk. at TJSTONTOWX, AUGUST 3, 1883. It is said that President Arthur has decided to reappoint Mr.

Samuel Hays as postmaster of St. Louis. The Secretary of the Treasury decides that the department has no authority to order sub-treasury officers to receive the trade dollar same as the standaid one. The department of state has received information that the report telegraphed to the foreign press that Spain had pro hibited the importation of American pork is unfounded. Capt.

The strike of the telegraph operators is likely to cause some trouble.

In Boston a suit for damages has been entered against the "Western Union Telegraph company because the company's agents there refused to take unconditionally a business message offered for transmission. At Birmingham, a great iron industry has grown up. Factories of various kinds are springing up in all parts of the south. The regions thus favored seem to be gradually falling in love with protection. Politicians and those who dabble in political economy should not fail to note this.

It is said that Carey, the Irish informer, was assassinated while on board the Melrose steamship, between Cape Town and Port Elizabeth. The deed was committed by a fellow-passenger named O'Donnell, who is in custody. The news caused great excitement in the House of Commons and rejoicing in Ireland. It will be a long time before the end of the star-route business is reached. Suits for the recovery of sums aggregating a million dollars, fraud nl entry paid to and received b- star-route contractors, are soon to be begun.

The prospects of recovering this money are not very bright, but then the lawcrs' interests must be attended to. The people pay the costs. The directors of the Bourbon County Fair association invite attention of all who feel an interest in any department of the association to the large number of costly and valuable special premiums of fered by the merchants of Fort Scott, bv Mr. Ball of Hiattville, and Mr. Brown of Pawnee, who believe that "the fair is a benefit to everyone who does business or owns property in the community." The fair will be held October 2, 3, 4, and 5.

Referring to the fear caused by the ap proach of cholera or any other epidemic, is it not strange that dying as one of a multitude is more terrible to some persons than simple death by units. Pew patients suffering from ordinary disease show any dread at all, while the man en joying good health, but surrounded by pestilence, is sometimes consumed with a terror which almost renders him unfit for his ordinary duties. The town of Cassamicciola, on the island of Ischia, near Naples, Italy, was entirely destroyed by an earthquake Saturday night. Not less than 4,000 persons lost their lives, and about 800 were more or less injured. Nearly all of the houses in to collapsed, and the neighboring towns, Foris and Lacceameno were much damaged.

The shock was felt at sea and at Xaples. Trulj-, that terrible fellow whose walking-cane is a scythe, comes like a thief in the night," when we least expect him.

The new law reducing the rates of postage goes into effect on the 1st of October next. The law substitutes 2 cents per half ounce on letters for 3 cents, the present rate.

The question is being discussed as to the effect the reduction will have upon the revenues of the department, involving as it does a loss of one-third. Many think the effect will be to stimulate correspondence, while others consider that the postal card completely fills the bill as to cheapness and that the reduction will result in seriously crippling the post-office revenue for vears to come.

In falling back into the well his head struck against the wall and received two 'very severe gashes.

Commenting on the way in which cities may be made to grow, we find the follow ing in a contemporary, the product of some outsider's brain, whose name is not given. Whoever should get credit for the ideas, the are so correct we do not hesitate to copy them, as they point out to our fellow-citizens what their duty is It is a well-established principle that the nennle make the place; nut its facilities for business. It is true that an energetic and prosperous people mav Ik-kept hack by lack of natural advantages, but this not often the case.

A thousand towns and cities art-kept in oheek by the greed and lack of public spirit of the people, where one is kept down by location, rush and energy overcome all obstacles 'greed and want of energy" will kill the most oromwiny loenlitv. So a town or city is just what its citizens make it. If its landowners hold its lots so high that new-comers are kept out, this will act as a weight to keep it down. If the citizens prefer to patronize the merchants and mechanics of other places, that helps to keep the place down. AVhat is wanted is for the people to be united as far as public good is concerned Patronize each other as far a possible in any new enterprise, especially manufactories pe a.

warm greetine: to anv new settler, and give aid as ftir as mW be everything that shall tend to the public If this policy is pursued, a town or eitv will rapidlv grow, and become thrifty and prosperous. If, on tlVVonfrary, the people refuse aid to every enterprise, miles thev are to get a big slice of the profit, look ujou every new arrival as a oiireon to 1h nliuLi-il -owl their neighbors only when they cannot do as well or better somewhere else then a place will grow slowly, if at all; its natural advantages will go to waste, and count as nothing in promoting prosperity. The Fort Scott "Banner," referring to its comments on the management of the Poor Farm in its issue of the 19th speaks thus in its following number that of the 26lh In our last week's issue we had something to say regarding the keeping of the records of the Ior Farm. Our article was not intended as a reflection niton the management of the Farm, nor upon the Board of Commissioners, but a suggestion as to an important public matter, which we deem it our privilege and duty as a journalist to make concerning anv and all public matte v. We are led, however, by our brief investigation of this matter, to conclude that the Commissioners have adopted a very expensive system to take care of the paupers of the county.

We cannot see of what benefit a poor farm is to a county if it costs as much to run it as it would cst to board each and every pauper at a public hotel. It has been our opinion that a farm lessened the expense of taking care of the poor, and we think under a proper system it would. The 4i Banner," remarking on the visit of its editor to the Poor Farm, says in its issue of the 26th As a result of a wonderful coincidence, the hoard of county commissioners and the editor of this paper found tljeiuselves in Uniontown together last Friday niorning We found nothing about the premises which particularly excited suspicion. We did see a score of wretched creatures, afflicted with ill and poverty. Jive one male and four females are insane; two helpkw old negress and one negro girl, with both fi-et off at the 'ankles, and twelve meu more or less crippled or infirm.

From appearances we should say Mr. )liver and his wife are well calculated to minister to these unfortunate people. In a lecture delivered in London bv Oscar Wilde (wild Oscar) with reference to his wanderings through this country, he said flie first thing that rtruek me on landing wn the prwjerity of tlie people, and the absenee of rag.

JUST INSIDE THE KANSAS LINE, i i E. E. Shkrmax, Trumpeter lGth Infantry. At the request of one of our readers give insertion to the following lines: A soldier from his native State, in early manhood prime, Lay with the dead and dying in a Texas clime. 'Twas on the plain of the Pecos, bis life was ebbing fast His comrades, faint and weary, in crowds were hurrying paat.

A comrade stopped beside him and raised his drooping head, Then in faltering accents the wounded soldier said Farewell, my dear old I bid vou a last adieu, Though you may shortly follow, I'll iic'cr return to you. "With me the fight is over, my skirmishing is at end; But still a dyiner messaire bv vou I fain would send. bear if to mv kindml and distant friends of mine. I have both friends and kindred just inside the Kansas Line. "I have a good old mother; you know that mother well 0 bear to her those tidings how in battle fi ll.

Tell her that I ccmember her good advice to me, And bad I but listened to it, more of the world I might see. Had I then but heeded the good advice she gave, 1 need not now be hastening to fill a soldier's grave Uut I heeded other counsel and left that home of mine Home, of peace and comfort, just inside the Kansas Line. You know my brother also, tell him the mournful tale, And when in death I'm sleeping my fate he will bewail. He knows the cause that drove me awav from that Dome ot mine, And the phantom light that led me outside the Kansas Line. "There is a blue-eved beauty, I need not call her name Who scorned my boyish affections, and it fanned to a jealous flame But I now forgive her freely, for wounds will heal with time.

May sunshine ever brighten the path of the girl within the Kansas Line." 2fow his reason failing, the soldier ceased to speak. On the plains of the Pecos, where the phvrs hide-and-seek, Gently down his comrade laid him, when he saw that all was o'er He kuew he was safe with his Savior on the other shore. All through our glorious country too well the people know Of tha Itcdskin' fatal bullets that lav our gallant soldiers low; How the Redman's gluttonous greed is filled at the Government's hiind But may God reward our soldier hovs in the and better Fort Conchh, Texas.
