THE VALUE OF MONEY. Can Arbitrary Laws Rezulate Interest? - „ Absurdity of the Defeated 5 Per Cent Bill. Why the World's Usury Laws” Must bs . Repealed. The late attempt and failure to pass a bill through the Missouri Legislature fixing the legal rate of interest on money ato per cent brings to mind the fact that usury laws are little more than a relic of the past. Money is acammodity in the commerce of the world, and eattle. Sometimes it is sometimes Like water, it finds its own level. It has done so in nearly all ages, and will continue to do so as ist. less. ARISTOTLE, Mi who came to some very bad conclusions, said: **Money being naturally barren, to make it reed money is preposterous; it must be used only for exchange, and pot increase.’ might be said with equal truth that since u house cannot breed a house, it exnnot increase in value.

HISTORY OF THE CRIME, The crime which West condoned with his life was committed last October, and the cir- cumstances connected with it are that he was tramping through the country with an un- known companion, and when near Pilot Grove, Cooper county, Me., murdered his compan- ion in an untenanted farm-house on the road- side. A short time subsequent to’ the murder the body was diseovered be Lewis Meredith, a farmer, who went into the house TO LIGHT HIS PIPE, On the evening before the discovery, amps were seen going through the town of Pilot Grove. ‘wo little One of them was a | small man, with black moustache and goatee, and tolerably well dressed, and with half grown beard on his face; he also carrled a bundie, apparently of clothes, and walked witha heavy cane or club. The other man was much taller and of light complexion and hair; he was also well dressed and carried a bundle similar to his traveling friend. They stopped at a store, and the small man, the spokesman, asked for two glasses of beer, but being told that it was only kept by the bottle, went on. They were next seen at another store, then by Mr, Nat. Harris, where they made some trivial pur- chases. After this, they stopped at a farm house, near by, and got some water, and next they were seen IN AN APPLK ORCHARD near the old house, where they slept and which one near left. At au early hour on the morn- ing ef the murder the prisoner here, for so he Was proven and afterwards confessed, was seen leaving this house. but dressed a little differently from what he was the evening be- fore. He took a course up the Lamme River, and, although suspicion at ence fell on him and a diligent search was made for him by the of- ficérs of the law, nothing was beard of him for He Is Then Tied and Held While Fora | priscner, who gave his name as John J.

Le was at once given a prelimina- ry examination before a Justice of the Peace, n, as alterwards seen by au old woman from Whom they begged the water on the same evening in the apple orchard, and as the man who was seen by a negro boy there early on the the murdered man was found. Everything pointed towards him as the mur- derer,and he was unable to give a satisfactory or even reasonable account of his whereabouts during the six days intervening between the murder and his arrest, and was consequently held to answer for the charge of murder in the first degree before the Cooper County Cireuit Court, and found guilty. which sentence was ailirmed by the Supreme Court. West made two fruitleas attempts to escape from jail, but. failing, quietly resigned hiuiself to his fate, and confessed that he committed the crime toa reporter of the Boonville Advertiser. : THIS CONFESSION is as follows: ] swear to the truth and nothing but the truth, The truth is better than a lie.

CHICAGO, May 16.—A reporter interviewed General Sheridan as.to the effect of the recent decision in the case of the Ponca Indians at omaha on the future treatment of redskins. The General, was free to say that he had never heard of such a nonsensical and absurd decision before. It would, he said, if carried into efiect, prevent the Government from exereising any control over the Indians, and most outrageous results would follow such hampering of the authority of the army. This decision practfgally prohibited any army from arresting Indians. even when caught in the commission of outrages, Until the. decision had been reached in the upper court there would be wo change in the present plan of operations, and officers of the army would continue to arrest Indians whenever neces- sary.

(on motion of Ingalls, it was resolved thit the Secretary of the Treasury be directed to report to the Senate what amouut of legal tender notes has been of January last, aud what amount of coin he considers himself authorized to retain in the Treasury to maintain specie resumption. Consideration was resumed of the legisla- tive, executive and judicial appropriation bill. Mr. Eaton, speaking on the appropriatiou bill, defended bis former assertion that this is a confederacy of States. The war. did not change the government nor abolish slavery. The emancipation proc- lamation did not free.the slaves. It required the independent action of a. cere tain number, of sovereign States to work those changes in-the Government of this confederacy of States. The late struggle was a war of sections and the pres- ent reckless. denunciation of Southern men was unwise and wrong. Let the past bury its own dead, and go on as brothers. Hiouse. A resolution Was reported from the Com- mittee on Rules by Mr. Frye for the appoint- ment of a standing committee to which shall be referred all bills, resolutions, petitions, ete., affecting traffic in alcoholie liquors. An argument in opposition was made by Fernando Wood on the ground that under tho proposed authority this committee might av- rogute ta:itself powers whiek did not belong either to it or to Congress, and might, under. the plea of meorality, unter- take te interfere with the me- nue of the CGovernwent derived from tax on spirits. He had ne objection to having the whole subject referred to a committse. The resolution was sdyoeated by Fre and Stephens, and waa further opppased by Reagan ou the ground of unconstitudionality. Mr. Garfield adxoewed the resohition and disposed of the eoustitutional objections hy saving Congress bad exclusive jurisdiction over the Distriet of Columbia, where there were a thowavd rum holes, under the shadow of the Capito? und over territories with an area as. large as Europe.

Up- on arriving there he found out Consular agency was supported by the trick of having shipments from Hamburg sent over to Harburg to be invoiced, Hamburg being a salaried consulate which turns its fees into the Treasury and Harburg depend- ing only on fees. Mr. Lasar promptly re- ported that the Consulate at isted solely for the purpose of cheating the Ilarburg ex- Treasury out of some 81,800 a year which really came from Hamburg business, and the game Was stopped.

The True Inwardness of the Report of the Late Grand Inquest to be Brought out ia Court. Ex-Judge William C. Jones, of the Crim- inal Court, to-day filed a suit against ten mem- bers of the late grand jury for damages. The gentlemen sued are Joseph B. MeCullagh, Detlef J. Blanke, David Rowe, Thos. Lowry, Wm. M. Senter, Ephraim G. Obear, Gideon W. Chadbourne, Wm. Carmichael, Oliver F. Garrison and Mathias Dougherty. Two mem- bers of the late grand jury, Mike Heller and Wm. Bull, are not included in the action, as they dissented from the course of the majority. In bis petition Judge Jones alleges that he was Judge of the Criminal Court; that he always sustained a good reputation as Judge of said court, and was never guilty of the charges imputed to him by the grand jury in their report. He was never suspected of tak- ing bribes nor of oppression or partiality in office, ete. The petition further charges that the defendants wickedly and maliciously in- — — — — — SS — eee tended to injure him in his good name, credit | and reputation,and bring upon him the odium and scorn of the public. The cause of action 1s that defendants caus- ed to be published-a ‘certain false, malicious, scandalous and defamatory libel. The LIBEL COMPLAINED OF was embodied in the report of the grand jury, and is as follows: During our session it beeame our duty to investigate certain CHARGES AGAINST WM. C.

A steamer by a screw has, as all vessels have, a stern-post, and, in addition. it has, a little way behind this, a rudder post on which the rudder is hung. the propeller hang- ing between these two.

Throwing out all testimony which, to our minds, could be explained away, we find the following facts: That William C.

That in one instance two parties were jointly accused of the same crime: one of them held the unsecured notes of Judge Jones for $00 and was acquli:ted un- der instructions of the Court to the jury; the | other, who did not occupy the enviable rela- | tion of ereditor to the Court, was convicted | and sentenced to the Penitentiary. the Republicans must carry Ohio to have | contest of The interesting, especially to Mr. success, vill be quite THE FIELD BROTHERS.

The criminai classes are not more generous nor less exacting than those who are superior to them in morals. For every favor bestowed upon a man who holds their fate in hands, they expect a return. If they do not receive this return they are deceived, and from their standpoint are grossly wronged if they do not receive it, the temple of justice is polluted and a high public trust is grossly dishonored. In either event the judge is guilty of high treison against the majesty ofthe Jaw, whigh he has sworn to defend and uphold. Nor should he be allowed the benefit of the doubt which tho law resolves in favor of the paltry criminal.

This enterprising stiburban city has been amply rewarded for having been represented in the recent commercial excursion to Mexico. Messrs. Harrixon & Co., manufacturers of agricultural machinery and steam engines, have shipped several thou- sand dollars’ worth of these goods to Mexico since the month of February last. Five other firms of the same place have made shipments, and we were shown a letter to-day stating that an additional order was received by a Belle- ville firm for goods manufactured in that city. It not only is strange, but absolutely incom- prehensibJe, that so great a manufacturing city as is St. Louis should not make some ef- fort to muke itself known and felt in a coun- try of ten millions of people. lying at our very doors, the greater part of whose wants are now supplied by European manufacturers. it is learned that an effort is now being made to arouse St. Louis merchants, manu- facturers snd business men in general to great importance to St. Louis of making an effort to secure for this city her legitimate share of this valuable trade. interrupting the | 1 ' has in- | ' trade that s ould belong to | —— States the Mexico is to-day more peaceful, better dis- posed and more progressive than at any pre- vious period of her history. is intelligent, progressive and liberal, ing the people of the United States to ail the development of her marvelous resources, and there is no reason why we should move, and move at once, in this important matter. — — A Hien Becomes a Rooster.

With the «x- ception of the usual adventures with hawks and owls, this interesting fowl reached the age of pullethood without creating any un- usual excitement. She quickly won the hearts of the lords of the barnyard, and more than one pitehed battle was fought for her favor by rival cocks. In time she developed into a steady, matronly hen, and not only proved a good source of eggs, but sat upon and hatched f.ve litters ef chicks and one of geese. from which feat she was known in the neighbor- hood as the *‘gosling hen. Last February, however, a marked change Was observed in the subject of this sketeh. First, the roosters ceased to worship at her shine, A chang was observed in her general bearing, she as- suming decidedly masculine airs—crowing with the voce and tone of a thoroughbred chantieleer: spurs commenced to grew from her heels: the tail-feathers lengthened and curved; Ler comp grew in length, and now this remarkable fow] has developed into a full- | fledge«di reoster.

Special Correspencence of the Post-Dispatch. . JERSEYVILLF, III., May 16.—Jerseyville and vicinity was blessed with a fine shower iaae Weduesday,which has done avast amount of good forthe corn that is already planted and for the ground that is being prepared for planting. John W. Snider, of Medora, but formerly of this place, and reeently reported as having committed suicide in the county of Calhoun, gave us aplessant call last Thursday, aud reports himself alive and doing well, and that he is worth two dead men yet. The entertainment given by the Forbes Drae matic Company on the Mth inst. was in eve y respect a sticcess. The passenger train on the Chicago and Kansas City road was five hours late Wednese day morning, caused by the bind trueks slip- ping from under the teader. The tram was heavily loaded with passengers, but fortu- nately no one was hurt. About 3 o’elock Wednesday afternoon Officer Kinsla received a dispatch from Kane, III., to arrest one Samuel Burnett should he make his appearance on the streets of Jersey- ville. On the receipt of the dispatch Officers Kinsla and Dunphy started out to take a look for the man answering tothe description given in the dispateh. On nearing the depot ey ‘aw aman running south on the railroad track. They cave chase and soon overhauled Lim. His deseription, name and everything else was sufficient evidence that they had se- cured the right man. A dispatch was sent to Kane informing the authorities that their man was captured and awaited their arrival. M. M. Leigh. of Kane, dispatched back to the ofticers to hold the prisoner until his arrival. In the meantime Burnett bad taken up quar- ters at the Hotel De Young. Late in the evening? Mr. Worley, aceompanied by an o- cer, arrived in Jerseyville and called for their man. “Sheriff Young brought Burnett forth and Le was fully identified by Mr. Worley as the man who bad forged his name to a note or order and had secured the money ons me., Of what amount the forgery con- -i:ted your conespondent was unable te learn. Suffice tosay that Mr. Worley and the officers had secured their man and took hm au av. As the offcase was mitted extreme pleasure of boarding Mr. B. We also learn that Burnette has already served two terms in the penitentiary for being too fauiiier with other people's horses, and there is «9 » Obability that bis third term will be for ning tee willing to usethe pen.

No time for nonsense. Come to the Famous,“ and see what it is to he alive. Why waste your money by being satisfied with the first store you come te? Take a few moments more, and go where there is an assortment of goods, and where you can save at least one profit. We have a bit of advice for you. Unless you have much more money than you know what to do with, it ts good policy to take a turn about and find some spot where a dollar will spread out to the greatest extent. We think there is such a place, and are rather strong in our convictions that ours is the one. If you visit us and do not find more goods and lower prices than elsewhere, and feel like going away without buying, we won't kick.”’ It is your privilege. We are working for your interest as well as our own, and, if we can not make it apparent to your good judgment that we are ahead, there is no Eurm done. By the way, do not fail to see what we offer next Sunday. If our prices don’t open your eyes, nothing will.
