He had beeu sick about one month with a complicated disease of the brain, heart and lungs, and while much of the time life was despired of his death was not expected so soon. lie was born at Uawortb, England, October 20, 1827. His life has been a busy and successful one.

Abont one year ago he, with his sons, engaged in the manufacture of alpaca goods at Kent. Joseph Turner was an uncomprom ising friend of the Union during the war, a stalwart Republican in Ameri ca, a prompt, thorough man in busi ness, whose word was law, and whose will in executing his purposes stood against the world.

This suit was kept as quiet as possible, owing to the fact that nothing like cri urinal intercourse was charged and the standing in society which Stafford enjoyed. Naomi obtained a judgment iu her suit against Stafford for $1,500, which the Court cut down to $1,000. Leffingwell made it all right by marrying the woman at noon to day." i The country press have a hard time of it.

They suffer more from senseless legislation than any other branch of business extant. The proposition of Representative Allen as embodied in his proposed bill toestablish the rate for legal advertising lacks every essential of fairness. A time when everything that outers into the make up of a paper has advanced 40 per cent. Is not the proper date to reduce by the severe cut of 40 per cent, the rate of legal advertising. If a cut must be made to give reputation to reformers there should be reason and sense in the measure.

No busidess man will say or claim that arbitrary reductions of 40 per cent, are not hard ships to any business, The bill should be amended very decidedly. Marion Mirror.
