Ove is Conkling, and hir rensons are well known. The other is Thurmen. The Iatter cannot forget the drubbing Ruthertord gave him onceupon s time, when they were rival candidates for the Gover nor’s chair. Tus siiver bill has already been discussed by the cabinet. It has but two friends in that body— Thompson and MoUrary. It was simply discussed and laid aside for future reterence. As the President himeelf 18 pot yet infofmed &s to what he will do, newspaer men may well giye it up. — THE question of the Bible in the public schools et:ll agitstes deeply the minds of the people of the quiat city of New Haven, Connecticut ‘Without wishing to interfere with that which doee not concern us, we would suggest that the matter be referred to the editor of the Lincoln Journal, He would settle that question for them iu short order.

From this and that, s speech on the silver bill, for instance, and other Iit'le matters like the one above mentioned, the admirers of the Ohio Nenator already see hum in the Presidential chair. Tourman ds now one point abead of Hendricks, and the latter must lose no time in putting in suothed bid. Towa abolished the death penalty afew years since, and her present Legisiature is considering the ques- tion of its restoration. A bl is now under discussion by that body which contemplates the revival of what is known in France as the National razor—otherwise, the guil- lotine. Perhaps it makes liitle or no difference as to the manner of an executior till, the is some- thing about the method proposed that savors of barbarism, and it eoeme tous that in this Republic, the guillotine fs an unnecessary piece of machinery. EowAsp R. HEDGzs, one of the proprietors of the Lincola Globe, died recently at Bpringfield, Mis eouri. His life promised to be one of usefulness and honor. The field he had chcsen—ihat of journalism —is broad aud fertile, and offers to ti0se who are wrling to undertake the labor of its cultivation, unlimit- ed opportunities for usefulness. We tender our sympathies to the be- resved family, and regrot the loss of one who biad just bezun the labors of life with so many bright prospects for the fature. THERE has been an immense amount of “stuff and nonsanse” in the proczedings of the United Btates Senate lately. 1f there 1s one thing more disgus:ing than anotber it is to read the trashy speeches of some of our best men when those states- men are falking to the country in- stead of attending to their business. ‘Toese ‘vids for politieal support #i0uld not be heeded. The war veleraus would have been supplied with pension moley long ago if there had been a little more work and considerably less gush expend- 1 0n the pension bill.

The Eepublicans of the Blate #at down jretty heavily on Wil. lian at their Jast convention, and a viclory for the nominees of that ‘convention would bury him beyond a political resurrection. General Garfield is oze of the prominent 1 uders who has cousented to come to the reliet of New Hampshire's Republicons. —_— AN investigation bas been sug- gestad that would prove exceeding ly ioteresting, even if it dia not result m any special benefit. The wnjest proposed Is to find out bow ‘many railroad attorneys there sre Jn Conogress. We often hear that this avd thst promment senator or yepresenutative appearea before the ru;reme court in beball of some great corporation. Thedistingulsh- ed etatesman Is one of the attorneys for the corporation and s paid by 1he year for his services. His fuflu- ence in Congress is, of course, in- cloded and he is not bribed. Itis a convenient way for ratlroad and o her cirperations to secure con- giessional iuflvence and isa very shrawd piece at tactics, as it doss ot come within reach of an action sor bribery. By all mesns givets alist of these congressional wreck THE Senate committee on claims decided by a msjority of one vote to report a bill providing for the payment of & claim amounting to one bundred and fiftysthousand dol- lars, presented by the Methodist Eplscopal Church Soutlr, for occupa- tion of 1ts book agency building at Nashville by Federal tronps at one time during the war. As to the merits of this particular claim we know nothmg. But on general principles, euch awards are fraude that should not be tolerated. If the occupation of that building was warranted as a military necessity, vo euch claim should be allowed The nature of the institution should have nothing to do with 1t; and aven if that question was to be con sidered, it is doubtful if the claim ir ectitl=d to auy more consideration than the claim of a pagan. At least it we remember rightly, the cause of the Union found few advooates in Bouthern pulpits. The probability 1s that the claim above mentioned is intended asa beginning for direct damages, irrespeglive of former patriots and traitors, aund it would be difficult to tell just where and when these claims will cease coming in, espe- cially if this one is allowed and paid. Improve the South. Let the nation assist in reconstructing her barbors, levees, ruilroads and industries of 'l kinds; but do not make the North pay twice for having restored the Unlon. It hss cost us pretty heavily, as it 1. There might be such a thing as too much concilie- tion in that direction. — GREAT BRITAIN is still pushing the most gigantic preparations for war. 1t is probable that in the event Russia should insist on the terms of peace asnow proposed, En- gland or Austria would fight single banded. In fact, they must do it, or no longer pretend to be first rate powers. However, Russia’s terms may have been prepared on the basis that it is easy enough to cut down a little, but impossible to make terms more stringent, after submitting them to the powers. Since England has taken such careful paius to pre pare for war, and has been accused of belng willing to do anything rather than fight, it is hardly fair for Russis to back out of every prposition over which if ivsisted upon, John Bull says he is willing to messure bimself with the Czar. But Russia’s terms of peace made the world laugh. ishe went to war with the Bick Man 1 order to protect some unfor{unate Christians, wo were ill-treated in various ways, aud many thought the Russians deeply interested in bumanity, and the csuss of the Master. Now, the Bear has bis claw on these Christians, he says they shall be taxed to pay his war indemnity entirely beyond what they were capable of bearing up un der. These terms give the Christ 1ans & choioe between starvation un- der their Russian protectors, or bay onets at the hauds of the Bick Man. It seems to us that, considering all the circumstances, the best thing for the Christians to do is to pray for the Balkan mountains to fal! on them. —_—— THE question known as the frank- ing privilege has been before the eouatry in one form or another for many years. Tn commection with tie present agiiation of the ques- tion we are reminded of the anec- dote told of Fessenden. Fessenden ‘was at that time the leader of the Seuste. He wasquiet, firm, honest, and a master in debate. Regularly the house would abolish the frank ing privilege, and then go over into the Nenate and beg the grave and reverend seigniors of that budy to defeat their bill. It was on an oc. casion like this that a favorite son of the West approached Kessenden avd implored him to defeat the bill that hid just passed the House when it should come up in the Benste. “Didn’t you vote for the bil1?’ asked thq Malne Benator, fixiog his severe eye upon the smil- ing Westeraer. ‘Well, yes, ever 80 many of us voted fur the bill—to please our constituents, you know, a¢ it is a popular measure—but we dido’t think 1t would pass.” The grim Fessenden said: “When you sreasold as I sam, you will learn tbat tnereputation of & statesman is not maae by any such fourpence ha'penny business as this.” — Cor WorN¥Y thinks Stanley made a very unfortunate speech before the Royal Geographical Bociety of London To eay the lesst, he thinks 1l was in bad taste. However, the kindness with which the travel- er'n distinguished suditors over- looked his short-comiugs 18 very c'wmendsb e. But Forney’s de- scription Is better, sud we give Lis own words: I wish I could wiite a8 warmly fit 88 I can of his great labors and discoveries in Africa, But it wasin wrelched taste. Worse than al, it wes usprepared and he was frank enough to say so. The man tracing his mighty work was, however, the true orator of the evening, and as be relerred to whatiee bad done the good peopie around him forgot his egregious vanity aud his sppsrent disrecard for the place in which he stood, and gave him meny rounds of hearty ap- plavse. T hiave a slocere regard for Stanley sud for his marvelous labors; but the man seems to have lost his head The company he men on Thursday evening could not have been more distinguished if Benja- min Fravklin had been the guest, or George Washington, or even Shakespeare or Milton. But either of these characters, like the liying Ghribaldi, or Genersl Graat, or Liboulaye, or John Sright, would have shown their greatuess by that bumility which the reslly eminent mind always shows in the presence of & generous popular recognition. As | heard Stanley’s loose and non- seusical egotisma, 1 thought of the modesty of the lamenred Dr. Kune, aud the clear, gentle looent:‘.;h:he departed Azassiz. I do ot criticise, but do deplore an exhibi- ‘tion eo far beneath the man and the ’oonl: n.! BLACK UILLS NUGGETS. The Caledoma mine on Shumac gulch, bas b =11 ta Califorma parties for $75,00). The freight on one mill of the Homestake Co., now belng shipped from Ran Francisco, amounts to £27,000. = The Times says that Chicago has $1,000,000 invested in Black Hills property, and Californis double that amount, The daily yield of the Hidden Trensure mine, in the Black Hills, keeps the company's 30-stamp mill constantly employed. Twenty seven residents of the Spearfish Valley, have come out in a card forbidding any individusl or corporation from diverting the wa ter of that stream from (e natural course down the valley of the Spear fish. 5 Buperintendent Farish has a force of 150 men employed in excayating, filling and otherwise preparivg a large level space for the location o the 8) stamp mill of bis company, now on the way here from an Francisco. Tne Black Hills 83 a farming country is rapidly progressiug One commission firm at Deadwood has sent out orders for nearly 300 bush- els of Coiorado wheat, which s to be sowed this year. fn another year they will begin to manufacture their owz: flour. The corpse ot E. D. or “Dad” Haggard, one of the oldest and most_favorably known miners in the Hills, was discovered by pros- pectors in_the woods between Ger mania aud Kockerville, a few days sgo. Foul play 1s predicted, as the deceased had several bundred dol lars on his person when he left Deadwood, snd it could not be found on the body. A new mining district ealled the Grandview bas, for the past few ‘weeks, created considerable interest amongst those who are posted It is situated on the main Box Elder, about 21 miles southeast of Central, the old Luster road passing through the centre of it. A town has been laid out called Grandview, lots 55 by 125. A large number of lodes haye been staked out. On Wednesday of last week a party of flfteen Indisus came down upon two hunters upon the Belle Fourche, near the Montana trail crossng. The hunters bad just Ritched up the bull team to come to Deadwood with their game when the reds charged them. The hunters Ieft in haste for the brush, and no pureuit was offered, the Indians seeming satisfied with thelr stock and blankets. Cheese should not be made in rooms where paint has been recent. ly used, as it has a tendency to in- jure the flavor. A writer on honey says no pro- duct of the fleld or farm varies so much m price, because the uuat- tractive manner in wi ich some put itupon the market csuses it to be classed s a second or third rate ar ticle, Farmers should exsmine thelr cellars, seeing that they are well ventilated, and tbat no decaying vegetables are allowed to taint the air and engender disease. The un- usual mildness of the winter has rendered this of more than ordina- 1y importance, as nearly all of our vegetable products are prone to de- csy in warm, damp weather. The Elmira, N. Y., Gazette, hears of mauy sales of Big Flats and Chemung Valley tovacco at prices ranging from 6} to 12 cents. Buy- ers come on the ground. Small pro- ducers are holding for higher prices. As w quality, the everage is fair and much better thau the '76 crop. Perbaps two-thirds of the entire crop has beer: bougbt. Dew-drops wie now accused of producing a peculiar disease of the grepe leaves which prevatled in a cerian section of France last season aflter a heavy dew. The dew-drop being deposited on the tender young leaves, it is absorbed becauee the leaves are not yet tough enough to withstand the water. The dew- drop expands and ruptures the tis. sues, resulting ina dead pot on the leal, Brain work and that of the clear- est kind comes Into profitable play quite as well on the farm as any- whereelse. Look ahead, get a just view of the position; have plowing, sowing, barvesting and eelling all done st the proper fime. Never hurry, but always drive work aheau. Know in the evening what you in- tend to do the next day., Have your rainy day and your clear day occupation designed boforenand. Always bring Into reqaisition the full means for compassing the de- sired ends. In short, study and understand your business, and you will enjoy it and thrive on it. It 18 economy to feed your work- ing stock, cattle, horses or mules, with u liberal hand. Do not expect to get first-class work from them un- less you do. Many men pamper a trotfer or some fanoy animal, which often is of no earthly use to its own- er or anybody elss, and let their teams go bhungry. It seems the rule of some men to get as mueh work a8 possible out of their teamsat the Jeast poseible expense. This is right in theory, but 1t is in reduemng to vractice that the great mistake is miade. The cheapest work is done with the best-cared-for team. In & paper read before the Ameri- oan Deirymen’s Association lately, Mr. C. W. Hor, of Obio, sensibly said: “No farmer shuld bt y 4 0>w, that, after careful investigation, he does not believe will bring him at least §50 worth of milk during the season. He had much belter give away & cow, if he owns one, that does not give §40 worth of milk per year than to keep her during & Eeries of years, even if he has to pay $70 or $100 for a five.year-old cow tbat will give $70 worth of milk & year. Poor cows are dear atany price ; really good ones, if young, are never sold too high. " Great pains, then, should be taken in the eelection of cows to obtain natural milkers.” It is surprising how sm.ll is the number of shade {rees necessary to produce a striking effect. Ten or twelve trees, fortunately or skillfully disposed on the sides or brow of & hill, are o ten sufficient to give itan air of richness, L armonizing perfect Iy with a highly-cultivated country. A single wree by a farmer’s house protects it and gives it an air of peace and eontentment. An un- protected, solitary house gives a chilly, lonesome, barren impression. At this season of the year, when every intelligent farmer is making plans for the future, let the planting of a few shade trees in desirable spots about his premises be included in the work for the coming spring. Mr. Tilden maintains with great firmness that this country is deeply in his debt. 1t is no more than right, under the circumstances, per- haps, that he should re‘use to pay his iucome tax. OUR NEW ORLEANS LETTER. Condition of for Northern Improved Com the City- el Produetions, Ete. New Or’eans correspondence St, Paul Pio- meer-Pross. The improved commercial®ondi- tion of New Orleans, from the open- ing of the mouth of the river, will, 1 am convinced, be speedily felt along the entire line of the Missis. sippi valley. At the levee, beside a fleet of sailing vessels, thero are sel- dom fewer than five (o reven steam- ships from Liverpool, Havre, Bremen, etc., takiog 1 or discharging cargoes. The export cargo usually conslats of about 40,000 bushels of small grain, with from three to five thousand bales of cot- ton, according to capacity. The grain is thrown into the hold of the vessels by floating elevators remov- ing it from barges. These ships, drawing from twenty to twenty-two feet of water pass in_and out with- out delay or obstruction. For want of wheat the grain carried is ususlly corn, sent down from the middie states, accessible to the river. At present freights are low, and flour would be carried for 2s 8 peace, or about 50 cents per barrel. 8o far, with us, the dnift of trade has been eastward, but I think the time is not far distant when we will tind a profitable account in divert- ing a share of our export trade to this port. To show what barges can do in cheap transportation, a tug arrived here this week from the upper river, bringing 600,000 bush- els of coal. Compute the difference of moving this enormous bulk with railroad carriage. A man from Red Wing told me that with his tug and barges he could bring down 100,000 bushels of wheat. FLOUR. Among the large bakeries which use from 630 to 1,000 barreis ver month, Minnesota wheat stands pre- eminent above all others, but so far the price is objectionable. The bread here is inferior, but it is such a8 the people have been accustomed to in all times past. A large bakér told me t:at he had tried the mar- ket with the best of bread, made from Minnesota high grade flour, but even the hotels refused to pay the price, and he now uses the same flour, about 300 barrels a montb, mixed with the southern flour, to give his bresd a more presentable appearance, with but small ad- ditional cost. This will change in time, as it has already to an extent in Bt. Louis. In. all cities there is a large percentage Who will sfford & loaf of good bread wnen they find out the difference. Ten thousand barrels is the largest amount I have seen shipped since being here, though one house told me they had sold 20,000 barrels. LAGER BEER. There 18 & large consumption of this beverage in this city, brought brought mainly from Milwaukee and Cincinnati. 1 have drank the famous Vienna, Bavarian and other German beers, and so far as 1 can Judge there 18 88 good, if not better, beer made in_St. Paul thsu any I have drank elsewhere. I think our brewers ate slow 1n not making an effort to introduce their malting into this market. If it can be sent from Milwaukee at & profit, it can be more readily shipped from St. Paul. The beer sold here is good, but not equal to the best manufastured iu our city. If the business men of New Or- leans had collectively the untiring ambition and go.ahead.ativeness of & northern city, I am convinced tlie town would feel the impulse of increased prosperity in less than a year. The exportation of cotton and sugar se2ms to absorb all capac- ity ofthought. The city would hail with delight the opening of the wheat and flour trade, but is walting supinely for outsiders to priog tuis traffic to thetr dour instead of, by a united concert of action, prepsnng themselves with elovators and ship- Ding to assure the safe and speedy handling of the products from the upper country. Everybody says this will be brought about throngh time, but certainly the time has long since passed when the prelimi- nary steps should have_been taken. I see ‘““Commodore” Davidson is taking active steps to supply his boats with freight for the lower river trade. It is such men who revolutionize trade, sand the people of New Orleans, whether tbey de. serve it or not, may yet find their European ships loading with wheat, flour and pork. Btrawberrles are coming into market. T.T. M. State Telegraphs. M. Leon Say, now Minister of Fi- nance for the French Republic for the third time, has closely studied the science of political economy, and is the author of several flnan— clal works of recogmized authonity. A fortnight ago he succeeded in getting the Ciamber of Deputies to agreeto a plan of his for fixing & umiform telegraphic rate of five cen- «mes (one cent) per word through- out France: no telegram, however, to be leas than fifty centimes—that is, of ten sous, a French ou corre- sponding with the Eaglish half- pen- ny and the Americau cent. ‘The rate for telegraphic trane- mission to all parts of the British Islands is at the rate of 24 cents for every 20 words, and six cents extra for every five words additional; this charge including the name of the sender and receiver, and deliv- ery within one mile of 'the offico— beyond that limit the charge being twelve cents per mile. At the chief office in London, and in all large British towns, (elegrams are received and forwarded on Suudays, precisely as is done in France. According to the new system, framed by M. Leon Bay, teiegrams throughont the French republic wiil be charged one cent per word, the minimum cost of a dispatch fo be ten cents, and a uniform rate of one feanc, or twenty cents to be charged for twenty words, whether sent within or beyond the boundaries of a department. These statistical de- ails are not without interest he e, where it has been often proposed, Wwithout much examination into the expense and the neans of meeting it, that the Post Oftice Department in Wsshington should purchasesnd work the various telegraph lines, one sure result being to obtain offi- cial patronage to a very great ex- tent. In England there are 45000 such officials, and the Btate had to psy $35,000,000 hard cash for the telegraph companies’ monopolies and plans. — Keely, of ‘‘motor” fame, after absorbing about a hundred thousand dollars from credalous people, and afier faring sumptuously, wearing diamonds, and drinking champagne for over three years, has at Iast been declared a bankrupt. The Cleve- land_Herald remarks that if Keely gets his deserts he will furnish mo- tiye power for breaking stone in a penitentiary. Safe, reliable, harmless and cheap is Dr. Bull’s Couuh Syrup. Price 25 cents. 2ged Diplomatists. Bome foreign journalists have started a discussion as to the evil of baving 8 country governed by per- cons advanced in years. The in- stances alluded to are Rusala, Ger- many, krance, and Kngland. Prince Alexander Michael Gortschakoff is 18 80 years oid, and his will, as re- gards the government of the grest Russian Empire, is believed to be more authentic than the Czar him- self, who is twenty vears bis junior. In Germany, Prince Bismarck is only 63 ; but his imperial master, William of Prussia, who now snd then shows that he has an over- powering way of his own, is almost 81. Marshal MacMahon, the President, who kept the Frengh Repnblie in hot water, from the 16th of May to the 14th of Decem- ber, and thereby very nearly caused a revolution, is nearly 70, while Jules Armand Dufaure, the present head of the French Ministry, is eight years older. In Engiand, Lord Beaconsfleld, born on Decem- ber 21, 1805, has eatered into his 73d year, which, it is thought, may acoounc, to a considerable extent, for his uncertatn and hesitating course during the recent Russo-Tur- kish war, and up to the present time. His rival, Mr. Gladstone, who has entered mto a deci dedly personal as well as political antagonist to him, 1s omly four years the junior of Lord Beacous- field, but, from his unhappy infirm- ity or temper, which so often and so greatly annoyed his colleagues and his parly followers when he was Prime Minister, 18 not likely ever again to have a chance of returning to that position. An frritable tem- per, a tyranpical manner, and an unconquerable tendency to act ca- priciously, where he ought to take counsel with cooler heads, combine to make Mr. Gladstone, almost 1n his seyenty-second year, more unre liable and inefficient than Lord Beaconsfield at the age of seventy- two. A severe temper counts for & good deal in politics, as was also shown in Talleyrand’s case. — FALL OF BEAR TOOTH. A Mountain 500 reet high Tumbles Down, Holona Independent, Feb. 10th. Nearly every resident of Montans has either seen or heard of the fam- ous Bear Tooth mountain, the most vrominent land mark in Nonheru Montana. 1t is visible from d| ent point at distances ranging o 40 to 60 miles, and is in full view from Helena and the surrounding country. The.mountain is distaut thirty miles from Helena,and stands like & grim and mighty sentinel at the end of the canon known as the Gate of the mountains, throfigh whioh, flows the Missouri river. Tce Bear Tooth was fuily describea s & wonderful landmark of the early ex- plorers, Lewis and Clarke. Inall phnlogmpns of the northern country the two tusks, rising black and grim hundreds of feet above the moun- tain, are the prominent objects. The main tusk remaws, looking lonely and 1zolated in its gmnueur. We are indebted to Judge Hilger, who met the two hunters referred tobe low, for the following particu- lars in re‘erenc to the fall of the smallest of the two prongs: Last Monday a party of hunters who were chasing game several mi- Ies north of the Bear ‘rooth, obser- ved a rumbling sound and a quak- ing of the earth, and supposiug it was an eartbquake, aud not noti- cing a repetition of it, they soon for- got the occurence and continued their chase until they reached the Bear Tooth. Here they were aston- ished by the disapperance of the Fastern Tusk. This Was & perpen- dicular mass of rock and earth, fully 500 feet high 808 feet in eircumfer- ence at its base and about 150 feet at the top.
