MIR. HUNTERS LAND BILL.

Wecopv, this morning, from the National lntelli
reuccr, an extended synopsis of the bill introduced
bv Mr.. Hunter as IL substitute for the Homestead bill,
and which was adopted and passed by the Senate by
n vote of more than two tn one. This bill, also, like
the other, assures possession of limited portions OF
the public luuds to heads Of families settling on them
and gives Il complete title nf,er five wears occupancy,
on the payment Of Il sum graduated according Ia III,
time the lands have been i'll market. This sum va
ries from one dollar to twclve-and-a-half cents per
acre.
The second feature of the bill ia, that it makes Il
general provision for grants of alternate sections OF
land on the liues Of railroads chartered by the States
The third and most remarkable provision il tina,
whereby the States arc allowed TO take possession and
acquire title to tho lands within their limits on the
same terms as individual settlers.
Ii tho reader will consider what m infinity Of vex,
atious and absorbing questions will be finally settled
by this bill, if it shall receive the approval of the
House, he will admit that it is one OF the most i'm,
por,ant measures ever brought before Congress-. 1t
reaches and remedies nearly all the evils that have
SO long beset the question OF the disposal of the pub
lie lands. The details OF the bill may be criticised,
but as q whole it is statesmanlike, comprehensive, and
in its effects, promises to confer great benefits Oh the
contrary.
AL the provisions of tho bill are general and look
to permanent disposal Of the questions reached by II.
Besides, as we understand it, it enables the States To
take possession of and require title to the whole pub
lie domain within their limits, and thus provides tor

GREAT EXCITEMENT AT BARABOO.
Liquor Destroyed BY Mob Of Ladies-Rio
Act Rad

An extra from the Baraboo (Wisconsin)
Standard informs us of stirring events at
that place on Tuesday, May %. 1t seems
that the sale of liquor had grown into
monstrous nuisance, and led to frequent
difficulties and abuse in families. At
length the ladies called a secret meeting
of their own number, and laid their plans
for general destruction of the liquor in
the village. The Standard gives the fol-
lowing account of the riot:
Accordingly, about 10 o'clock on
Tuesday morning, procession Of some
fifty females was seen issuing from in or
about the Courthouse, and passed on to
the Wisconsin House. In very short
time after, number of excited ladies
were seen bringing forth barrels of beer,
rum, brandy, &C., emptying it into the
streets, amid the hurras and shouts of a
hundred spectators. This job finished,
they proceeded to the saloon on the op-
posite side Of the square, and emptied the
ale and beer there contained in double
quick time. The procession then wend-
ed its way to the saloon of French Peter,
followed by the shouting populace. They
here found the doors fastened, and were
informed by the owners wife that de-
termined resistance would be offered, and
that they would not be allowed to enter
the house unmolested. A group of ladies
were holding consultation on the piazza,
when the muzzle of a gun was thrust
through light of glass, and such scat
tering you never did see. This would
in all probability, have ended the demon.
stration, so far as that house was con-
cerned, as we are informed that the la.
dies designed to do nothing to disturb
the peace. =
"But by this time there were some
men among them, who urged them te
press forward and enter the house forci.
| bly, if necessary. As soon as it was un.
derstood that the men had begun te
interfere, strong feeling of excitement
manifested itself. Different men took
Opposite sides; a strong body of resolute
determined men, stationed themselves al
the door, and loudly proclaimed thei1
intention to defend the house from any
violence SO far as the men were con.
cerned. A rush was made for the door
but was successfully defended by those
who stood there, after few scratches re.
ceived and the tearing of few shirts
For few minutes we thought our towr
would be disgraced by general fight
, and that blood would be poured out in
stead of whisky. While affairs stood in
this situation, the Sheriff appeared, anG
after calling aloud for silence, read tn,
riot act, which was heard and received
by repeated shouts from nearly two
thirds of the people present. The ma
jorlty then dispersed, and the ladies re
tired after they had received assuranc,
that their wrongs should be redressed.
! A meeting was Called At = = o clock il
the evening, and Committee appointed
to take into consideration the best means
to put an end to the liquor traffic in ou
village"

recent scenes at Boston, says:
Upon the action of the public authorities.

On no occasion within our recollect have

Various circumstances had impaired to this
election an unusual degree of interest through

indeed to great excitement on the part of a
large portion of the population This depth
OF feeling 1t was apprehended might lead to
collisions at the polls but we are happy to
