REPORT
OF THE COMMITTEE ON CLAIMS, ON
WOODRUFF'S MEMORIAL.

Taking all the facts into consideration. the COM
m,tee are irrosistaby led 10 the conclusion,
that it was not the intention OF the General AS
sembIy who enacted the law Of the Sd October,
1886, to repeal the then existing laws, allowing
fees and perqusi,es 10 the auditor and treasurer,
bu, thai it was designed by that act to tx The
amount of their regular salaries.
Upon the second ground, upon which Mr.. ood-
ruff's claims for relief are based, the committee
are clearly of the opinion, that in addition 10 the
ordinary duties imposed upon him by law, the
services rendered by him in respect OF the surplus
revenue fund, were of an extraordinary charac-
ter.
By the act of October 30, 1886, it was made
the duty of the treasurer to receive the surplus
revenue from the secretary Of the treasury of Inc
limited States-tha, law did not contemplate thai
the treasurer should leave his official duties at nome
and proceed abroad TO collect that fund but in
the absence Of any agent. and supposed absence
of authority OH the part OF the Governor 10 aP-
poin, one he took the responsibility Of collecting
thai fund and discharged it in a manner entirely
satisfae tory and advantageous 10 the state.
Tbe committee are satisfied with the reason
,hleness of the charge Of S595, for actua! ex-
penses incurred by him in collecting ana trans
nor;ine the money. The committee also hnd, 'na'
lie naii 10 the person who discharged the duties

In view Of all these circumstances OF the case

They propose TO allow him . per cent. on an

Lord Morpeth on Democracy.-Lord Morpeth,
speaking in the House Of Commons, referred 10
his visit 10 the United States and he did not hesi
tate 10 confess that the things he witnessed 10 this
country had contributed much to that change OF
opinion which he had lately undergone in REFER
ence 10 the corn laws. He is now in favor Of
abolishing those laws-not from any diminished
attachment to the arstocra!ic or mixed monar-
chicat principles which are the elements Of the
British CONSTITUTIONS but because Of the conviction
that tho democratic principle, strengthened by the
example and progress and papable influence Of
this Republic, renders it unsafe to cling with too
much tenac,y to exclusive privileges. Lord
Morpeth said: - !.
But feol that we cannot confront the example
Of general ease and comfort which prevail among
the American people. Hear, hear!] We all
know the story of the Irish laborer, who refused
to write home that he had meat three times day,
because nobody. would believe him. We cannot
confront the growing aspiration Of our own peo-
ple-we cannot confront the onward tendencies
of the age in which we live, if we do not consent
to administer and to work out our aristocratic
notions in more democratic spirit. tCheers.
notwithstanding that implied dissent, contend
that no arstocratic institutions which rest on ex-
elusive privileges will be able to stem the currort
Of the age. [Choers.] contend that there il
no aris,ocratlca body which rests on especial in-
,eres,s will escape their certain downfall-[C Chsersl
and that no aris,ocracy, no matter how long
descended, can exis, with the corn law when the
pressure will come, and that corn law will be
prohib,ory. think that that will be too hard a
strain for any title Iced, no matter how ancient,
to resist.-[N. o. Pic.

lessrs. Eiitors:-Through the medium of
your columns | wish to give few hints to the
public in relation 10 the disease called aBlind
Stagaers" in Horses. 1t is considered BY most mea
to be fatal, but my own experience has taught
me the reverse. In the first place. when you
find your horse has this complaint. bleed him in
the mouth and feet; take one quart Of blood from
each foot; then split his forehead, and fill the
cut place with fire salt, and pin it up; this done,
put two table spoonsful Of whiskey, made thick
with black pepper, into each ear, and tie thom up
with twine string, 10 keep the horse from shak-
ing it out, and the cure is completed. II beat
Ing in his aanks should come, after drawing tho

disease, the "Blind Staggers," that have treated
in this manner. Yours, truly,
