Tbe body was dcovered at 3 a m. bv a druggist uiied Kuhn, who has a store near the United States building. He was telephoned by the wife of Smith, who had become alarmed at her husbands absenoe, to ascertain where ha was. Kuhn went into the U.

building and found all dark except on the first floor, where the postoffice is situated; he groped his way tip stairs and stumbled on Smiths body, whioh was weltering in a pool of blood, aud the police and coroner were immediately informed. It was fouud that Smith was in the act of olos ing the door ot his office when he was shot. He had a package of letters in his hand which fell on the floor, and at the feet of the murdcrei man was founds bull dog self cocking revolver, one eham her discharged, aod the bullet, flattened and bloody, was afterwards found on the floor. No other traces of tho assassin fouud. The report of the levolver was not heard by parties working in the post office below.

Smith was seen writing in his office at 1 1 oclock and it is presumed the murder was committed about ay. hour afterwards, as the body when fouud was part cold. Smith had been very prominently identified ior several months with the temperance oausc, enforcing Slocums law against liquor dealers and causing the arrest of numerous saloon keepers. He was chairman of tie' law and order committee, so-called, hnd had incurred bitter hostility. It is not thought, however, that the liquor association or the better class of dealers had anything to do with tho inoeption of the crime.

The perpetrator was evidently inspired by personal hate, as considerable money on the body was untouohcd. Smith was a member and officer of the Miohigan cavalry regiment during the rebellion, serving all through the war. The oity is iu a state of intense excitement. I 4 V. I Eggs 19c per dozen, candled.

New York Letter to Cincinnati Gazette. Beecher announces his retirement from' thtf associated editorship ot the Christian Union. Reader, do you smile at thi-? Well, "there are trio'-s in all trades but ours. The idea ot Beecher doing edi-torul service is certainly ludicrous. His uatne was a good headpiece for a while at least, but at last it lost its freshness, and heoce it wasjust as well to take it down.

The nalue ot a name is to well known to hat ifjfe comment. I could mention a popular works by distinguished ftCt, who.hav been ibeially paid for inof t(r ea to go bak, i n1 or lug. fians of rU day, though Pope rea.w fife profit. To return to Beecher I reViember the time (sixteen years ago), whel the was editor ot the iodepeud-ent. He wiote a few ed ruTs, but soon got tired ot such wojkl and his name was dropped Editona, life requires stated labor, which is just what Beecher intensely dislikes.

Beecher berag thus pui under siege, at first was wont to "her off, and make promises, but after wh.le he tound that there was no escapu and hence fulfilled his eontraet. Bonnee paid Beeoher, during an engagemenr whioh lasted only three or four years, nearly $50,000, including $30,000 tor Norwood This was tben a profitable investment, but the scandal destroyed the sale of Beechers writings, and Bon ner dropped him. Beecher has made more money by preaohing and writing than any other manUthat ever stood in a pulpit.

THE LATEST STEAMBOAT HORROR. Keokuk, Iowa, Nov. 5. At about 7 oclock last night ihi3 city wa3 thrown into a wild state of alarm, a terrible crash being heard in the direction of the river, and at once the fire bells were mng, steam whistles were blown, soreams and noises ot all kinds were to be heard and amid the general alarm and confusion, it was realized that a dire calamity had occurred on the levee. The scene presented was one that dtfies description, being terrible in tue extreme, ana a glance was sufficient to show that the very worst of the many stories so quickly afloat were but tiue.

The War Eagie, one ot the finest steamers navigating the upper river, had whistled for the draw ot tiie bridge, thesigua! being promptly ausweied. and had been headed tor the outside of the draw piers and was ap pareiuly passing all right when it was dis covered that the Ntera of lie boat wa-swmgiug around into the pier next to tin dra the buw of the boat being an eddy. The pilot rang to back her and ulLrts were made to get her out ot her perilous situation and ttraighieu her Up, but the boat being heavily loaded aud tne current at this point very swift even I K- rntnoy ot me lapiu ui uno was wuh terrible force against the bridge, where tor a time the boat rested, hei stern swinging around against the span. Che passengers were terror striven and rushed about frantio with fear, a majority of them leaping from the boat to tht bridge and qu ukly hurrying to a place ol safety. Tne officers remained at then posts and did all they could to prevent a panic or loss of life, but the efforts weri of but little avail against the alarm ol those on board.

Desperate attempts were made by all to escape and the frightened people used every means to do so, many jumping into the water, a majority ot whom were pioked up by the small steamers and lesser craft which at once put out to the rescue, bat it is feared that several found watery graves, though it is impossible now to ascertain with any degree of correctness just whar. the loss of life is. The boat, after striking, carried the span trom its resting place and went tearing through, a com plete and helpless wreck, passing down the river stern foremost, rapidly taking; water and soon settling in a depth about 17 feet at a point 300 yards below the bridge. The loss to the packet company is estimated at about fortv thousand dollars, while the Keokuk and Hamilton bridge are sufferers to the extent of one hun dred and fifty thousand dollars. The boat had a miscellaneous cargo aod laoked fully two hundred tons of being loaded to her full oapaoity.

THE ALLEGED WILLIAM8. Menominee, Wisconsin, Novembtr 5. Nothing of particular interest has yet transpired iu the ease of the alleged Lon. Williams. Responsible men ot Dunn and St.

Croix counties have visit ed the prisoner and all emphatically as sert that he is not Lon. Williams. T. Page, attorney from Peoria, and W. Wiikiusen, sheriff of Woodford Ill arrived from Milwaukee last evening to identify the prisoner as Wm.

Kuhl-Both men have known Kuhl lrom boy hood. Sheiiff Wilkinson, who had net seen Kuhl since his arrest, visited the jail this morning. A lie stepped into the cell Kuhl imm diatcly recognized him and called him by name. Milwaukee. Nov.

The popular indignation amused by the ae ion of tho conn officials appears to be increasing rather than subsiding. CLERK 8 COURT MURDERED.

A furious snow storm has raged all day in St Lawrence county, and is a foot deep in the northern part of the county Snow squalls are reported along the Hudson and in the Catskills.

Over so von inches of snow are reported in rth western Ontario. 1 here have been oeere nan squalls at Norwich, Connecticut, and other points in New England. A new method of mutilating silver currency is being employed by a number of ratent medicine venders aod ethers to advertise their goods and wares of late. Large numbers of coins have boon received at the Treasnry which are stamped on one side with adyera-ements. The stamps used are some sort of a die which outs letters and words into the coin In most instances the name of the manufacturer of the article advertised is not cut ontho coin, but the advertisement simply recommends a certaiu nostrum or article.

As the coin is stamped only on one side, it can be passed very readily by exposing only the perfect side. This is a mutilation of currency, and a violation of tike law. Offioers of the secret service have been detailed to investigate this aod hunt out and prosecute the offenders, A large number of casos of violation of the law prohibiting traffic in postage stamps arc now receiving the attention ot the pobtoffice department, and special apents are hunting up offending postmasters all over the country. Postmas ters are forbidden to sell stamps except to the loeal.ty to which the offices belong; hut many of them violate this law One postmaster at a small village in Virginia has made a profit of nearly $500 in the last tew months selling stamps to Balti ore merchants at JO per cent disoount The authorities say they are determined to break up th.s traffic. The order of the War Department in rescinding its order for a court martial try Mason lor the atompt upon Gueaug life has caused considerable comment, some intima ing its purpose was ro ler Mason off without a trial.

At the. War Department the officers ssy that evidence going to show that Mason is real.y insane has been submitted, Upon ing this ths DiPvtirf.nt tbe i.ii.V'V ton be piqjiuder med il wuh a view of whether or not he is insane. He is now in charge of the surg at the arsenal, who ae keeping a close watch a pin him. If they report him insane he will be sent, to an insaue asylum without trial, but if they report him sane aunt her court mar dal will be ordered to try. him.

Keokuk, la Nov. 4. The steamer War Eagle, one of the largest aud finest crafts on the Mississippi river, white pro ceeding down stream struck the bridge with tprrifie force, carried away one entire span of tho bridge, and smashing in the wheel-house of the steamer. The boat was crowded with passengers, and a frightful panic ensued. 1 he officers were utterly unable to control the terribly excited passengers.

Women screamed, and the most fearful confusion ensued One hundred men leaped on the bridge soon after tbe boat struck, while many passengers jumped into the river. After striking the bridge one engine was disabled and with tho use of the other engine the large boat swung around and finally made a partial landing below tho oity, then drifted down and sank in fifieen feet of water. The steamer is a total wreck, and the freight on biurd is a total loss. The War Eigle was insured against fire but not against accidents. The total loss will be $225,000.

Three passengers are known to be drowned ana fifty are missing. The boat struck sidewise with a most terriffio erash. The cries of the aff ighted passengers were rending and sueh war the panic ad confusion that the offioers of boat could do nothing to save the trigten-ed people from leaping into the water. Washington, Nov. 4 Guiteau bas written to the president asking that since God has placed him in such a high posi tion that he subscribe for the benefit of the instrument med to p'aoe him there, The assassin also sent the following today to Jamc-s Gordon Bennett: Dear Sir I desire to call your attention, through ray bnthcr-in-law and at torney, George Sooviile, to the enclosed account of the suit I have against, the Jlerald.
