upon the government.
3. BY the law, the lands--"one equal

In December, 1916, the selection was

1913, the selection was approved by the
Secretary Of the Treasury. am of opin-
Ion that this disposed of the whole ques-

conclusive upon both parties. The Ter
ritory having made its selection cannot
choose again. And tile approval having
been made by tie proper officer, and the
act giving neither reviem nor appeal from

MISCELLANY.
Attractive Labor.

in his poem before the Franklin Lyce.
um, Providence, Mr.. SAKE introduced
the following hi,at the sham philosophers
of the day. by which il is pretended tha
society may be regeneraied:
Hail social Progress! each new morn is rife
With some new theory of social life,
Some matchless scheme ingeniously desin',l
From half their miserics to free mankind.
On human wrongs triumphant war to wage
And bring anew the glorious golden age.
Association" is the magic word
From many social ''priest and prophet"
heard
"Attrac.iye Labor" is the angel given,
To render earth sublunary Heavens!
Attractive Labor" ring the changes round,
And lubor grows attractive in the sound;
And many youthful mind where happily
lurk
Unwelcome fancies at the name of "work,' .
See pleasant pastime in its longing view
Of "toil made easy and attractive too,
And fancy wrapt with joyful ardor, turns
Delightful grindstones and seductive
churns!"
