WEBSTER: The Tribune gives the
following: P
Last Monday morning the Natchi- e
toches and Minden mail sack was o
fl, found in the road, eight miles from
this place, about half a mile north of c
Mrs. Tharpe's. The leathern straps o
had been cut, and the valuables of it
"g' the sack, if it contained any, taken ti
out. The driver James MeCarty, ti
was missing; but the mule and sul- a
ky, which he used in carrying the k
mails, were found near the spot. The o
mule was yet hitched in the sulky. p
The driver passed Mrs. Tharpe's just a
before sunset Sunday afternoon, ca
since which time he has u:ot been
beard of.
Sheriff Collins visited the scene of w
the mystery Monday afternoon, and oi
reports that there had been seen no p;
stranger in the neighborhood, there A
were no evidences that there had
been a struggle or fight of resistance ct
to robbery, and no blood, or any- to
thing going to show that there had at
been murder as well as robbery. of
Y let it is not certain that there had vi
been a robbery, for no letters were a
opened. But it is probable that who
ever cut open the mail sack, had an
idea that valuable letters were being
forwarded, and took them, leaving cc
the other letters and papers undis- it
turbed. Postmaster Chaffe has writ- re
ten to Natchitoches to ascertain it
any money was in that mail. eo
MeCarty had been carrying the wl
mail only four or five weeks. ta
Six registered letters were taken; tel
it has since been learned; amounts fri

more in need of labor than any oth- or
Ier. He left here on the morning of ab
the following day and went up the abh
Baufa as far as Mr. E Dubuisson's tot
place, where he determined to return gri
to Washington. He hired a poney els
from a negro man, Phil Baker on by
which he was to make his return an

him on an other, in order to return ma
with the stranger's; when about 3 dir
miles from town, at about half-past dra
2 o'clock in the evening, and in the mc
public road, he was shot through the see
head and killed. The negro that hot

death by a ball fired from the hand car
of some unknown person." .,.

I if Fresh manure produces but little N
effect when applied to crops, but n<
the when it is well rotted it then con- t.
tains much valuable soluble mat- U
n; ter absorbably by plants. In
nts fresh manure the most impor- Pt
tant constituent of its soluble Ni

our The health and comfort of horses re
ho have of late years been greatly im.
at- proved by the better construction of .

as new stables lofts are doneaway with, no

uy horses; while being introduced in 1
rn moderate amount, and from various of
3 directions, it comes in without an'
et draiug~t. Too much draught is al. the
