The preamblo states; “Experience has demonstraed that prohibitory and sumptuary 1 gislation increases the consurption of cheap and poisonous aleohol, thereby 1ncreasing [of the drunkenness and deereasing the cou- sumption of lighter and healthier drinks, such as beer, wine, and the better class of spirituous !'gors.” That H. B. Miller ia 1873 was elected treasurer of Cook couuty on the strongth of his speeches denouncing the closing of saloons on Sanday. whereas now he takes au opposite position, Referring to his conviction in con- nection with crooked whisky prosecu- tions in 1876, the resolutions clo: own affair with Princess Dolgorouki came in the nick of time to incline the paternal heart to indulgence, Alexander 1L finally agreed to shut his eyes to his son's situation, al- though sternly refusing to recognize the legitimacy of the marriage.

THE NORTHWESTERN, Marvin Hughett,general manager of the Chicago & Northwestern road, says the recent meeting was held at Saratoga, because that was the most convenient place, as a number of the directors were there. Its only object was to declare the usual quarterly dividends on preferred stock When questioned about the rumor of intended stock dividend to dispose of $7,000,000 surplus in the treasury, he said it was not’discussed and not contemplated. As to the rumored intention of the Northwestern to eecure control of the St, Paul & Omaha, he said hers havo not dos'royed his aspications af- ter sovereign pradeur. Hos dream was Byzantine, the long ¢ erished so eret ambition of his unecle Constan- tine, but there again he was doomed to disappointinent, and ro turned toward Asin, where he hopes to found an ompire. As angthing and every- thing is possible 1n this world, who knows whether this duuniless energy may not yet present an imperial crown to her, whom, in the teeth of all opposition, he has succeeded in making a princess. A NATURALIST'S SEARCH. P " Around the World in S8earch of the Skins of Monkeys and Uthers Animals, Nea York Mail and Express Prof. Heury A. Ward, whose large natural science estabiishment in Roch- ester, N. Y., has won him national if not universal renown as a collector, taxidermist, paleontologist, and min- eralogist, is & guest at the Astor house for the present. His mission in this city is one of great importance, and will interest every class of readers. About two years ago Prof. Ward, who, it should be said, hold en honorary profezsorship at the Roochester uni- versity, sold to Mr, Robert Colgate, & public spirited citizen of this city, a striking group of orang-outangs shot by one of tho professor's aids, Mr. William T. Hornady, on the Sadong river, Borneo. Mr. Colgate, in his turn, presented the group to the American muscum of natural his- tory in Central park They excited much curiosity and admiration there, beiug fine specimens of taxidermy, and as aresult Mr, Colgate was in- duced to give Prof. Ward the order to colleet for the same museum speci- mens of every monkey in the world About the samo time Mr. Morris K, Jesup, who was always greatly inter- vsted in the welfare of the museum, gave Prof. Ward an order for a com plete collection of the mammals and birds of the North Americen region, consisting of the United States, Can- ada, Alwka and Greenland.

Oune eveniug, when alone with her sovereign, Mile X. threw herself at the imperial feet, and with many tears, avowed that she was loved by the grand duke and re- turned his passion, wherefore she be- sought her majesty to consent to their union. The imperial reply was an immediate order to the petitioner to retire to her family at Darmstadt, and to the prince to join his squadron in the Baltic. But the august musters returned to the United States last May, none the worse tor the hardships and fatigues attendant on such a voy- age, sud the richer for a number of vxceedingly valuable specimens, ““The portions of the world I visit- ed on my present trip,"” he said, in answer Lo & question, “iucluded Aus- tralia, New Zvaland, the Polynesian archipelago, the Malayan 1slands, Caing and Japan, First, I went via San Francisco to New Zoaland, where 1 was lucky enough to obtain among other things some excellent specimens of the remains of a bird called moa dinomis The animal is now altogether extinet, but its bones can be found buried 1 large quantities all over the wsland. Tt bolongs to the family of the ostrich, and reaches & respectable height, 1 also obtained a few speci- mens of the aptery, a large and al- most wingless bird belonging to the ostrich family, aud a few of the very rare batteria punctata, the wole representative of the order of rhynchocephalma of lizards, There are no monkeys whateverin Now Zoa- land, The next place I visited was Australia, including Van Dieman’s Land. Here animals of the marsupial family, otherwise known as pouch an- mals, of which the kangaroo is the most ordinary good specimens which 1 sent home ready for stufiing, I farthermoro found goed epecimens of arinthorinei, those pecnlise animals with the head and web feot of a duck and the body of a beaver. From Australin T travelod ts the Dutch posseasions in Kt Indin, composed of the Islands of Java, Borneo and Malacea This is where I first came across really fine monkey specimens. They were chiefly orang cutangs— aomo of them very large and savage They live in inaccessible parts of the country where thick forests abound, but at vertain seasons of the year when the lower country is inundated they come down in large numbers to eat the durlon fruit. Then the na- tives sot upon them and capture them by the dozens. Many fine specimens wero brought to my headjuarters at Saranek, the capital of Borneo, and some of thom will be ready soon for the American museum. ‘‘My next voyago was to the Malay peninsula_and Siam, where, however, T oaptured little besides snakes, But these were not to be despised. Some of my boa:constrictors are eighteen to twonty feet long, and 1 have also some excellent specimens of pythons, In China, where I now went, I found deer and pheasants in any quantity, and helped myself plentifully. 1 needed oniy to visit the markets for what I wauted in this re- epect. To my surprise I found that the tiger had become acclimated in China, and not only there but in such a northern country as Corea. There the animal’s hair is lovg and shaggy, and much of its southern fierceness has been roplaced with lethargy. Tn Japan T found many monkeys., Like the Corean tiger, the climate has had its cffect on them. Their fur is long and bushy and they are comparatively tame. I was astonished to find these creatures wading through the snow with evident delight, o thoroughly had they become acclimated. Wild boars and peasants aro perfectly at hozae in Japan, and o are most of our domestic animals, From Japan I re- torned to San Franciaco, and reached my home in Rochester in May.

Their arrest was effcored the 17th without disturbance or bloodshed, The same day a mass. woeting of citizens of all classes was called for Saturday to decide the fate of the prisoners. The plot had been ip existence since 1878 and the con- spirators now number 400. They have powder, shot and guns and think themnelves sufficiently strong to ac- complish their fiendish deeign. Sun- day night, the 17th of September, had been appointed for its consummation. The papera further showed that this day was selocted because then the white people would be at a camp meeting and uoarmed and could offer no reswstence. The meeting called for Saturday brought together about 700 men, among whom were about 1560 negroes, who, after hearing the papers read, by an almost unanimous vote decided that Jack Turner was a turbulent and danger- ous character, a regular ficebrand in the community, and that the public demanded his immediate death. He was accordingly hanged about 1:16 the same afternoon in the presence of the assembled multitude. The crowd then dispersed and all signs of the disturb nce ceased.

WasHINGTON, August 21.—In the long pending case of the Doan Rich- mond miniog company vs. Broncho company's claims for certain mineral tracts of land for certain mineral tracts of land at Tucson, Arizona, Acting S.cretary Joslyn to-day ren- dered a decision in favor of the former. The decision cites that the allowance of theapplication by the re- ceiver, who was acting as register by order of the commissioner of the gen- eral land office, during suspension of that officer by the president, was an aoct of a defacro officer, aud that the entry should be admitted accordingly. THE STAR ROUTE TRIAL, Totten, counsel for Brady, calledat- tention to the fact that there was not one order in proof which had been made by Brady. Every order pre- sented was merely a memorandum not signed by Thomas J. Brady, but simply signed “‘Brady,” There was not a word of ovidence to show that Brady had ever certifisd an order to the sixth auditor, Was a man to be gu ssed into prison? or presumed into jail? Charges had been mude against Turner. How in the name of decency had poor Turner been dragged into triali What had he d ne! Even Kerr had been bound to admit he could say naught againet him, 1t was one of the grossest outrages ever per= petrated on an innveent man, Some other motive than vindication of the law was at the bottum of this ex- traordinary proceeding -this extra- ordinacy grouping of men from all parts of the land, He was ready to wake wager that this identical kind of prosecution coald be carried on agaiust any publio officer who was charged with the disbursement of money. It could be commented upon with just as much venom as this case had been commented upon, that the secretary of war had sent two regi- ments to Tongue river in crder to de~ fend the sottlers, Before the conclu- sion of Totten's remarks, court ad- journed, RED CLOUD'S ARREST, The following telegram was received to-day by Commissioner of Indian Affairs Price: Pine Rinoe Acency, August 20, Commlesioner cf Indian Affairs, Washington: Red Cloud hostiles are completely squelched, He was forced to come to the office yesterday and hear your warrant for his arrest.
