18th, a bill to establish e permanent pro-
specuive pre-enPtion system in favor Of
.~ettlers upon the public lands, & a bill 10
exempt from duty, cotton imported into
the United States from Texas, were sew
orally read twice and referred. A bill
10 supply the deficiency in tbe sppropri-
stion for the fiscal year 1874, for the
protection Of American scamen, was re-
ported back without debate or objection.
and passed.
Mr.. Thomasson, in Committee Q: the
Whole, made q very able speech on the
resolution which lie offered several days
ago, and which las kept the House many
lays in debate, asking that the portion
Of the Presidents message relating TO
Tie western rivers be referred TO a select
committee. Western men have general
y sustained his motion, upon the ground
that the Committee on Commerce, to
which the matter would otherwise be re-
ferred, contains no western man, thus
giving cause 10 fear that justice will not
be obtained in that quarter.

good ground for censure. 1t would

that the Governor has made one good ap-
Pointmcnt al least, in the opinion Of the
Lexington (Whig) Express. 1t says:
"No doubt tie Governor had several re-

one reason 10 regret the choice that has
been made-it has deprived US Of one Of

between France and Morocco is ut an
end. The Sultan has gwen way, aud
dreading the power he has provoked,
sues for terms. The Geographic dcs-
patch by the Prince dc .ioinyille from
Tangicr to the 10th uIto.. states that
"Thc Moorish government has dc
manded peace. The fleet arrived at
Tangicr this day. The governor OF
the town came on board to renew his
demand. Our conditions have been
signilied and accepted, and the treaty
signed. During the day the Consul
ate General has been rc.cstabll,hcd,
and its flag salutcd by the town. Or
ders TO cease all hostility, and to leave
the island Of Mogadorc, will be dcs-

This intelligence, which has been
most favorably received in France, has
been also gratefully received in Eng
land, as it will prevent a collision be-
tween the two countries.

FIRE.-A very extensive and well filled
Barn, the property of Of Hiram Brownson, of
this county, was consumed by fire on Thurs-
day evening last. The loss of MIR. Brownson
is very severe, as the barn was new, having
been built the present season, and just stored
for the first time. II is said TO be the work of
an incendiary, bu. we sincerely hope that there
are no such depraved characters among US,
and that it will prove TO have been SET on FIRE
By lightning, as the air was sur.charged with
electricity at The time.
Several stacks of grain, were consumed the
evening before, in the same vicinity, the pro-
perry of Mr.. Wilson.
Later information states. there is no doubt
about the above being the work of an incen.
diary, and that the barn was guarded the nigh,
before, as threats 10 destroy i. had been made.

DoN'T FRET.-Farmers slolId not
fret; that spoilsi all. Keep your tenn
per, keep quiet, don't think the world
is coming to an end, because you have
fallen into misfortune. Other mems
vexations come from the stupidity or
knavery Of their fellow men; but fret
full humor is very apt to find fault with
the dealings of divine Providence. If
his crops are cut off. the weather is uu-
propitions, if his cattle die let him not
murmur, lest he be found to fret against
God. Farmers misfortunes too are
almost always mitigated by some cor
responding good as it comes along with
them. If the rainy weather binders
your haying, it makes the grass grow.
Ii the weather is too cold for corn, it is
fine for wheat, and if the wheat fails,
you are very apt to get good crop Of
corn. If prices are low, it is because
farmers have so much to sell, and ifthey
have but little TO sell, the prices are apt
to be higher. He has so many strings
to pull, that some of them are sure 10
pull well. Consider how foolish it
sounds to hear a man grumble because
his grass is so heavy that he has
no room to spread il; and how it
looks TO see mans face yard long,
because he has rainy day in haying
time; the most profitable day he could
have too, If he will make a CHIT use il.
Remember that the good and evil are
mixed in this world. Would you have
all the good, would you have all pros
perity, and let your neighbor have the
evil?
Now don't fret. Take things by the
smooth handle. Have cheerful
countenance. Look on the bright side
of things, and you will promote your
own prosperity and the happiness of
those around you. POUCH. Tel.
