TIE IruRpIpE FAMILr.-It is stated that the pa
pers for claim Of land have lately been filed, with
the Land Commissioner in California, covering
four hundred square leagues of land, (three thou
sand square miles) to be located on the west bank
of the Sacramento river, extending from Puta creek
to point above Shasta city, and reaching back to
Clear lake and the coast range. The tract specified
includes nearly all of Shasta, Colusi and Yolo
counties. The claimants are the heirs Of Augustin
de Iturbide, the first emperor of Mexico, who was
once banshed, returned with military expedition,
was taken prisoner and shot. The heirs of the
emperor are Don Augustine Iturbide, now field
officer of Mexican cavalry, who was taken at Cero
Gordo, where he fought bravely; younger son and
two daughters, Dona Josefna and bona Jesus.
The three latter have, for many years. resided with
the e1-empress, at Philadelphia. %. ,f=-t't.I5Il

YHn RESULT.

Many days must elapse ere we can ascertain the
result Of the gyeat contest, which was fought on
the great battle-ground of the United States, on
Tuesd.y last; and we may well awotit patiently,
and moi burden ourselves and readers with vain
speculations as to the issue. While we have look
ed forward to the election of Gen. Scott, with all
the confidence naturally inspired by finn reliance
in the integrity and excellence of the great prnci-
Piles propounded by the late Wing Convention;
while we have always hoped that these great prin-
ciples would receive, they should, the sanction
of intelligent and candid Americans, still we have
long since learned thai, as "to err is human" SO
every calculation and every hope, based upon hui
man action, is uncertain and iuctuating. While
we have been always certain that the principles of
our party are the national principles; while we
have been confident that, if our principles were
presented to the voters Of the country, untrammel
led byparty names and resting upon their own
merits alone, they would receive the endorsement
Of an overwhelming majority of the people. Still,
we have known too well the uncertainty of popular
action 70 be certain to the result. We hesitate
not to admit that appearances, thus far, against
US; but, as our Democratic friends are sceptical
generally, to the truthfulness of telegraphic
ports, shall, for the sake of convenience, agree
with them IN OPINION at present, and calmly wait
the result. We are not terrorist and have none Of
the panic feeling about US. We should regret e1-
ceediugly to see Pierce elected. We regard such
an event as disastrous to the best interests of
our people, and particularly to Wheeling; still such
an event would not be without its solace. The
present administration has been inefficient, though
Wing, for the obvious reason that it has been
paralized by Democratic Congress- and has only
been able to prevent that party from further pros
rating the country, while it has not been able to
carry through any important affirmative measure;
and such might have been Scotfs case, had he been
elected If Pierce is elected, the Democracy will
have full sweep, and we venture the prediction
that at the end of the next four years. unless they
shift their sails, the Wing principles, for which
now contend, will be the principles of the great
body of the people, who will by that time open
theireyes to the hollowness of their principles We
shall. then, have the campaign of 1910 again upon
us when The ruin of the great cardinal interests of
the country will of itself whirl opower the men,
who are now advocating the principles of the Wing

TINE LADY'S BOOK for the ensuing year will
l. present many novel features suited TO the ad-
yanoinng demands of the public taste IL has ever
been the object of the publisher to take the lead
among the popular Magazines of this country; and
the host of imitators, who have been constantly
following-"toiling after him in vain"-are soih
clent to attest his brilliant success The prompt
ness with which every idea that he suggests is
adopted by others, is sufficient for his not
being very explicit and exact in his promises OF
what is yet to come. He does not wish TO lay out
plans for others to follow. 1t is sufficient however,
to say that all the existing popular features of the
LADY's Book will be retained, and many new ones,
particularly attractive in Lady's Book and FAM.
