N ew O rleans , N ov 22 — J. Floyd King, coraijressnnanof the fifth district, to-day wrote a letter to the president in regard 10 tlie outrage reported by Lanier. He says Com missioners Raum, on the report of Lanier, internal revenue collector of the filth congressional1 district, when the latter recently became candidate for congress, ordered him to invade the district with an armed force. There is pnfect peace and quiet in the district and no violation 01 dis position o violate the laws or the rights of anyone- Lanier no more needs United States troops than does Raurn, or the trea.sury or than I do while attend ig a session of congress. Lanier is short in his accounts a large amount as state tax collector, and more than orece has been en gaged in desperate broils not politi cal, resulting in the death of his an tagonist. Should such a man be appointed to such a responsible of fice as internal revenue collector, and be armed with authority to use troops or armed men in the midst ol profound peace against a popula tion observing the laws ol their country and busy in the arts of peace? -------- <♦» ------- TH.E 1 mAlHElW L a k e N a v i g a t i o n P r a c t i c a l l y C !o»- ed—Severe V a m l i c i ' ln .lo w a a .u d .

C hicago ; Nov. 22 — The supe rior court had beiore it this morn ing cases of durioass complications. Some months ago William A. Sloan married a woman in Ohio, moved to Iowa and there obtained a divorce through a Chicago divoice lawyer and upon the same day married an other woman n Lowa. The courts of the latter State declared the di- voice proceedings illegal and the second marriage audulterous. To day a Coicago court held the di vorce valid accord int? to the laws of Illinois. It is, therefore, illegal for Sloan to live with either wife a l though married to both and having children hy both, He might legal ly live with his Ohio wile in Iowa and with his Jowa wife in Illinois, but not live with the Ohio wife in Illin is or with the 1 wa wife in Iowa. Tlio B u t ta lo S u ic id e . There has beett no furthej devel opments of special interest in con nection with the suicide o Herman Schmidt. The body still remains at Kraft’s morgue and no one has made any claim for it or offered to give the remains a decent burial. Coroner Fowler is endeavoring to ascertain if the d-eceased had any friends in Milwaukee, who desire to take charge of his remains LATER. The curtain fell on the last scene in the tragedy of Hermann Schmidt yesterday afternoon. t 3:15 »he friends, some 30 sn number, visited the morgue of ¡Kraft's undertaking establishment anJ took a last look at his remains, which were enclosed in a plain imitation casket and neat ly dressed in white linen, a black alpaca coat with white nuilted cuffs and lapel, the hair carefully combed over the wounded tevnple. There were three large sleighs following the hearse, and behind these fouicutters, Tlie pall-learers were Messrs Werner, Reed, Qott- hardt, Stengel, Coleman and F. Stollmeyer, and quite a 11 mber of friends followed as mourners Mr. Werner, of the German bank, made appropriate remarks at the grave. Etnil Wahle was not at the fun eral, but he contributes $25 towards the expenses, and. will do better if necessary. There was no minister or religious services for some unex plained reason. Mr. Werner said, in German, as the body was lowered into the grave; “ This young man left U3 in the bloom of youth Had he lived longer there was a brighter future for him, but he died of a broken heart Although, almost a stranger the presence of st> many people here testily to the fact that he had made many Iriends during the few dajs he was among us. Let those who sent him to his grave try to forget him, and let tho-e present drop a tear tor his memory. The cclfin plate read: “ Hermann Schmidt. Died Nov. 19, 1880, aged 36 years.” CoiBiing^ H o m e . Among the arrivals in New York yesterday, by the .steamer ‘ 'Brittan me\ were the following persons: Mrs. Hon.

Turner & Son appears to be the liveliest just at the present time. A News reporter visited their market yesterday and was surprised to learn the amount of business done. The present time being their heaviest shipping season, filling orders occu pies a greater portion of their time. Although not as extensive as it will be: during the month of December, they now ship over fifteen thousand pounds of dressed poultry per week. Sacb a rush has been made in the dre- 3 -ing department the past week that a great quantity of poultry has been turned awav, they being un able to take care of it. Among their numerous orders, which ex- tend throughout the eastern por tion of United Stales, St. Luke’s Hospital and the Wilson Mission, New York City, appear the most prominent. Several private fami lies are also provided wi'h rnests . ver thirty orders were received yesterday, among which was one from C B Holbrook, Jr , of Spring field* Mass., for 2,500 pounds of dressed turkeys. Every week their ITewport orders take nearly a llious- iind pounds ol cut meats. At pies- ent their coops contain between se-ven and eight thousand pounds of live poultry, and among the flock can be seen between three and tour hundred ducks, which are beauties. One day last week three men in tlaeir employ dressed 703 chickens, ■which we consider a big day’s work. The most prominent of their east ern customers are John Hoag, pres ident of the Adams Express Co , Long Branch; F. C. Edson, \Mor ris Dock,” on the Hudson, presi dent of the Produce Exchange; Leonard Jerome, s'nek broker. New fork Judge C. Van Voorst, Hon.

Le Roy, Nov. 22d. — Indications; now point to an unusually brisk i holiday trade.' In view of the very; favorable outlook our merchants are1 already buying largely and in ¡a.111 probability their expectations of large: sales will be fully realized. The prospect of good sleighing looks bright, although Vernor predicted a ^arm November. Good traveling will of course maVe a great differ ence in the amount of goods sold, Old settlers seem to think we .ane going tJ' have an unusually* sever ■ winter. It certainly looks like It now Ice has already been cat, which was a good three inches in thickness, and the skating on th e p md is not at all dangerous But once before, during the past six years has there been skating before Thanksgiving. Our produce merchants have bcem doing a rushing business this fail, and a large amount of farm products nave been shipped W. H, Heal ol Stafford, has bieji here during the season buying for Hon John Sm- ders. That he is energetic and in 11 oi business can readily be inferred ¡rom the lact that he has bought iai to<vn and shipped from our depoas over fifty thousand bushels of pro duce, principally uheat and pota toes, He is st .11 bm ing and paying cash prices for all the produce he can find Mike Wilcox sold most of has livery stock at auction Saturday after noon What was offered brought good prices. O. F. Woodward & Co., manu facturers of Woodward's patent neat egg and other ol his patents are do ing a large and steadily increasing business. They have recently add ed a steam engine to their establish ment. The Young People’s Christian As sociation ol the Presbyterian Church, held a social at the house of M j .

That is one kind of a “ change” he has made, and from the columns of the Courier we learn that he has changed a iif of single blessedness to that of married hap piness, having been married last week in Stafford to Miss Ltzzie Page. We wish him the abundant success which he so much deserves in bis journalistic enterprise and the happi ness which is vouchsafed to but a few in his married relations. John Champion has so far recov ered from liis lameness as to be able to walk without a cane. 'H e has had a lonn, siege, and although not confined to the huuse he has bfcen obliged to use crutches Probably every merchant of long erablished business in Le Roy, will leinemberCharley Putnam who used to clerk m one o( the stores on ornr street. All who* knew him then found him bright, capable, and as honest as a new dollar All of those who so remembered him will be sorry to learn that he was recently sentenced to two years and a hall on Blackw- 11 s Island for forgery. His trout les are traceable to an immod- e ate usi. of strong drink, to which, (luring the last year of his residence in New York he has been addicted, His old friends in Le Roy will do sert Charley in his trouble, for they feei sure it is not a bad heart bat strong drink which has led him astray, and they are confident that he will reform thoroughly now that he has a chance.
