AN ADMIRABLE PAPER.

The following paper, issued by tho
American Minister in London, Mr..
Bancroft, is worthy the patriotic pen of
the Great American Historian.
DEATH CF MIR. PoLK.-Thc Ameri-
can Minister to our Court has notified
this event to his fellow-citixens resident
in this country in the following terms:
"Oflicial intelligence has been recciv-
ed at this legation that James Knox
Polk, SO lately President of the United
States, expired on the 18th day of juno
last. Unlike his predecessors, he has
ended life before the evening Of old age;
but not before completing an illustrious
and memorable career. The Judgment
OF his countrymen ever marked him out
tor high services. Raised successfully
to the first places i'll the state-chair-
man Of the most important Congrcssion-
al committee; head Of the House of Re
representatives. of the whole American
people; supreme magistrate in his own
Commonwealth; President of the Fcdc-
raj Republic-hc ever approved his fit
ness for the highest trusts; cxcclling not
more in station than in laboriousncss,
prudence, temperance, and fortitudc.
He defined, established, and extended
the boundaries of his country. lie

principles Of the constitution, and to ap-
ply the rule of freedom to navigation.
trade, and industry. Most beloved
where best known, he lived happily,
and died in tho midst Of his uncxamplcd
prosperity, which his own measures had
contributed to establish.
81 invite the consuls and vice -consuls
of the United States, and all others ofmv
fellow-citizcns now in the United King
dom, to share the sorrow of his family
and his country. His memory as il
public man lives in honour and will cn
dure; the youth Of our country will be
formed to virtue by cmulating the puri-
ty of his private life.

London, July II, 1912

Gov. DANA, OF MAINE, AND TIE
LEGIsLATURE.-It will be remembered
that Gov. Dana, on the subject Of slave
ry, in his inaugural, some months since,
adopted the doctrines of Mr.. Cass.
The Legislature soon after passcda Sc
rics of resolutions instructing their
members in Congress to lose no oppor-
tunity of pressing the Proviso into any
form of government to be provided for
the new territories, and directing the
Governor to sign and transmit them to
the Governors Of the several States OF
this Union.
We learn from the Portland Tnouircr,
that on the 17th, message was rccciv-
ed from the Governor, in which he re-
fuses to sign the resolutions. lie SAYS
that he would have been willin. to
transmit the resolutions to s'the Govern
ors of the several States of the Uniun,'
If they had been presented to him in the
ts&rdinary manner, but as they had been
sent to him by the Senate for his ar
proval and signature, the message from
that body was evidently intended TO re-
quest him to subscribe to opinions ::dia-
mctrically opposed to those he had OH
cially expressed" The message was
ordered to be printed. Thus there is
a conflict between these two branches
of the government.

OWNERS or CATTLE bound To
KEEP THEM OFF THE RAIIKoAD.-N.
u. Supreme CoaOt, lilly Ttym.--Nan-
dergrift VS.. Rcdkcr. This was an ac-
ton of trcspass brought against the en-.
glnccr Of locomotive for running
against and killing the plaintiffs COW.
The COW was at large, and had straycd
upon an uncncloscd part of the C. and
a. Railroad, near Bordcntown, Just as
train, at its usual speed, was approach
ing. The Railroad, at the place of the
accident, runs along the public highway,
and the view, along the track, is unob.
structed for aquartcr Of a mile each
way. The bell was tapped, and the en-
ginc reversed, few seconds before the
collision, but not in time to stop the
cars. The engineer was proved to be
generally careful man in his business.
The opinion Of the Court was delivered
at the present (July) term, by Mr..
Justice Carpenter, the result of Which
is, that the owner Of cattle is bound to
keep them on his own premises at his
peril; that an engineer in charge of
locomotive is not liable for an accidcn-
aal injury to a COW, which suffered to
go at large, has straycd on a railroad
and that nothing but will make him liza
bic for the loss of a COW SO exposed bv
the fault of the owner.
