The money all coined -in 1861, and was evidently new when thrown into the vault. It is impossible to estimate the amount as it is still being taken from the vault. The merchants have been notified to accept none of the money until it is ascertained whether or not it is genuine. A number of very large heaviy loaded bombs were also taken from the vault. Jack Col. James L. Pace. Gov. Stone sent to the senate yes- terday the name of Col. James L. to be warden of the state penitentiary. The fact that that body courteously suspended its rules and unanimously confirmed the nomination is not only a compli- ment to the chief executive but high testimony of the character and fit- ness of the appointee. Col. Pace has been active and prominent in the polities of the state for twenty years and the zealous supporter and steadfast friend of Gov. Stone throughout his public career. Without disparagement to his competitors, it is admitted on all hands that the appointment is the strongest that could have been muds aud will give universal satis:action The new warden po hugh degree all of the qualifications for the place, and will fill it com; There is more joy in a printing office over one sinner who pays in advance aud abuses the editor un every occa- sion than over ninety and nice who borrew the paper and sing its praises ; without contributing a cent to!

Jefferson City, Mo., Jan. 13.—Mr- Davie. of Henry county, indroduced a bill in the house to-day the pro- priety of which has frequently been discussed in this state. It isa mod ification of alaw in effect in many southern states, requiring railroad companies to furnish separate ae commodation for white and colored passengers. The bill doesnot require special care, but provides that rail- road compacies may equip their care with screens which must be main- tained between the seats occupied by the races in proportion to their numbers. Railroad companies may. at their discretion, provide , sepa- j rate cars, expressly for the use of | white passengers Every violation of the law will incur a fine of not less than $50 nor exceeding $500 Warden Pace. The appointment of Col. Jas. L. Pace of this county, to the warden- ship of the state penitentiary, as was announced ina special to the Review last evening, was the first test of Gov. Stone's backbone as welb ao judgment. Beset by politicians al! over the state. and harrassed for weeks before as well as eyer smce his election in regard to this partic- ular position, Goy. Stone, without a single promise to anyone, or the slightest intimation of his intentions. when the proper time came and after weighing the claims and capabilities of all the candidates, very promptly appointed the most suitable of al} the applicants to the place. The St. Louis Republic very appropriately remarks about Col. Pace that “he is peculiarly well qualified for the of- fice to which he has been appointed | possersing those virtues of rugge? | honesty, devotion to the public we) fare and capacity for executive man- ;agement which are so necessary these careless, callous times.” The Review from the tirst advocated Col | Pace’s claims and fitness for thie | position, without ever knowing he | was a candidate, and is therefore | both rejoiced at bis success and anx- ‘ious to commend the governor's . | good serse —R.
