KEIPEII and the American hog continue to attract the attention of the public. COUNTY will be compelled to pay for their stolen bonds , which with 'interest added will amount to $16,000 THE Boston Herald says a duck some times retires from water , and a boss from politics , but that in both cases it is compulsory , if permanent. . THE Arapahoe Pioneer now devotes a full page to the town of Cambridge , under the caption of The Cambridge Pioneer. Mr. B. has an eye to business. FOUR HUNDRED women of the Twen tieth ward , Boston , have signed a re monstrance to be sent to the Legisla ture against granting further suffrage to women. SENATOR PAYNE , of Ohio , wears spec tacles , and in his photographs has the far-off look of the rural pedagogue who has discovered a bucolic flirtation on the last bench in the school room. THE emblem of liberty , whatever be said of the principle , is experiencing some difficulty in gaining a foothold in this country. It may yet be necessary for Congress to make an appropriation for the * pedestal of Bartholdi's statue NEBRASKA will send ten delegates to the next National Republican Conven tion to be held at Chicago next June. Pour of these will be chosen from the state at large , and two from each of the three Congressional districts. ALASKA , our extremest northwestern territorial possession , which has been scandalously neglected by our govern ment since its acquisition from Russia twenty years ago , is at last to receive due care and attention. The House of Representatives yesterday afternoon passed a bill providing for the establish ment of a needed civil and judicial gov- eminent for the people of that region. IT is related that on his death-bed the late Congressman Haskell , of Kansas , said to the Clerk of his Committee , his personal friend : "Ed , it pays to be clean. Next to my God , my wife and my children , I Talue my good name. Per sonally , I do not care to live , but I woud like to live for my family. ] have noth ing to leave them but my good name. I'm proud of that name. JMy record is clean , and my children can look back upon it with pride. Ed , I'd rather have the good name than all the world. ' ' IP a dispatch from Hillsboro , Illinois , is true , the consciences of the jurors who acquitted the ravishers of Miss Emma Bond are troubling them terribly. One of them is reported as weeping con stantly ; another has a mortal dread of meeting anybody or having anybody come to his house ; and a third is dying of grief because the lady to whom he had been engaged to be married has re pudiated him in disgust. Possibly these jurors were justified in giving the ver dict they did , but the public generally doesu' t think so. THE trial of Orrin A. Carpenter for the alleged murder of Zora Burns gives promise of being a celebrated case. Briefly , the features of the case against him are these : The girl was found dead in a lane. Her body had evidently been taken there in a buggy and left. Car penter had been seen in a buggy about the time. He had been intimate with the girl , she was in a delicate condition , had been drawing some money from him. He was a man of family , a member of the church and a citizen of high stand ing. Thus far nothing has been brought out to show his direct connection with the murder. The girl was missing from Saturday evening till her body was found Monday. Her satchel and hat were missing and never were found. It is very doubtful whether Carpenter can be convicted. Topics. ORDINANCE No. 8.
