This the police as promptly suppressed, but when on the following day the same paper appeared with a brand new name the Police gave up in de: , foreseeing that the editors could practically set their edicts at de- fiance so long as their listof new names held out, and this ised to prove inex- haustible. The ‘tor, Herr May, the two editors, Herren Holdheim and in, were thereupon arrested, charged with the serious offense of publishing a news- paper after its publication had been forbidden under the law by the proper authorities. Of course the whole question for the court to de- cide was whether a newspaper, after its name had been changed, could or could not properly be considered the same newspaper. © pros- ecuting attorney insisted that to all intents and the Volks Zeitung was really published after its prohibition,even though the name was changed, while counsel for the defense urged ‘that this was a forced and TYRANNICAL CONSTRUCTION OF THE LAW. After listening to the arguments of counsel on both sides yesterday the court decided that the newspapers published under different ti- tles could not be considered as the same news- Paper, and accordingly the prisoners were dis- charged. When the three men left the court room they were received with loud huzzahs by their sympathizers outside, who thronged the a] es to the chamber and carried the ee men on their shoulders for several blocks.

Gnartox, Dax., July 20.—Dry, hot winds in Portions of the extreme north Dakota, near the boundary line, have played havoc with the crops, and farmers are reduced to eating field rodents, gophers, &c., for subsistence, ‘The crop in the Canadian northwest will be nil, A party of emigrants arrived yesterday from the Souris country. They had travelled 300 miles through a well-settled country on the Canadian side without seeing a fair crop, and say a great many settlers are leaving their land to drive their cattle to timbered country on Some of the families looked famine stricken and had eaten nothing but potatoes and turni; for some months. They were afflicted with scurvy and were sacrificing themselves to save their cattle. Atone place, northwest from Tur- tle mountains, a family of English emigrants, who were traveling back to the mountains, had killed and were eating a young colt, The suf- fering in that isolated region will be awful, and those who have means will leave in such numbers as to depopulate the Canadian north- west. They are new settlers in that country and have no resource but the wheat crop. —__.—__ Railroad a in New Hamp- shire. Coxcorp, N.
