OUR CEMETERY. We took a stroll through
our Cemetery the other day, and took note of lis
improvement, and the neat and orderly manner
in which it is kept. 1t is fitting, that while the
turmoil and scramble for gain is going on, a
little time and money should be devoted to
identifying and adorning the resting places of
''the love and lost" 1t is the place TO which
we must all come sooner or later, and the grave
docs not seem so cold and OAR TX where the flow
ers are sending up their perfume, and the sun
light falls lightly and lovingly through the
foliage planted by the hand of affection
Among the gistening monuments erected
since our last visit there, we noticed one to the
memory of Mrs. ANN FRENCH, wife of VOL
NEY FIR ENCH Esq. 1t isl plain monument
about ten feet in height, of very fine clouded
marble, and finished in the most beautiful and
chaste style. No better work, better mate
rial could be obtained in any of the eastern cities
1t was erected by Messrs HIGGINS 81 WASH.
BURN, Of Racine, and if any of our citizens
think it necessary to 90 abroad for such work,
they cannot do better than to employ them.

THE SWAMP LAND SALE-The Madison
Journal thus follows up the exploded falsehood
that Gov Bashford was implicated in the Shaw
ano Swamp Land sale:
'The day after the publication of our article
wchih the argus pronounces AMIDST entirely
false we had long conversation on the sub
iect with Col Jones, the Secretary of State
He admitted, as we can prove by the testimony
ola reliable witness who heard the converse
ton, the material portion of our statements and
in most unqualified terms declared that Gov.
Bashford wds not in the least at fault in the mat
Ter.
We put this question to him directly:
Admitting Col. Jones, that, as the Ners al
leges, a great and grievious wrong was perpe-
trated against the people of this State, in the
sale of the Shawana swamp lands, are not you,
and Messrs. Keuhn aud Smith, the other Com
missioners, at the very least, quite as much i'm
plicated in that wrong, as Gov. Bashfordl"
'Most certainly we are" was the reply" "but
no wrong was committed in that, and the State
never sold any lands at better rates than the
Shawana swamp lands.
So that whatever may be the loss to the State
from those sale, the Democratic party through
its officers, is directly responsible for it.

The Storm.
A n ID

One of the most severe northeast
storms that has been experienced for
ysars, commenced here on Monday
morning, and continued with undated
violence till Tuesday night when the
clouds broke away, and the weather is
now clear and pleasant.
The telegraph lines are much broken
down, the shipping have suffered much
from its effects, and news had already
been received Of several lives being lost,
buildings washed away, &c. The sea
made clean breach over the docks on
Staten Island, preve nting any commu-
nication with New York, and several
vessels in the bay dragged anchors and
could not be boarded.
Snow fell at Pottsville and Reading,
Pa, to the depth of twelve inches, on
Sunday night. The iron roof of the
Reading railroad machine shop at Read
ing, was broken down by the weight OF
snow, and two Of the woIkmen were
slightly injured; several locomotives
we're also damaged.
On Tuesday vessel was observed in
distress within Winthrop bar Boston har-
Dor. Patrick, an Irish boatman Of Dr.
Moriarty, the Port Physician and three
convicts Of Deer Island, put off as volun-
tcers from Point Shirley, reached the
vessel. Patrick took the helm and run
her through the narrows at Point Shr-
ley as the Only chance of saving her.
This he did successfully, rcscuing hel
passengers, three of whom were women
and saving the vessel and cargo.
This is pretty severe weather for the
last Of April, bur it is not strange tha,
we have cold weather here while we heal
of snow, in marvellous depth to the
westward, in the northwest, north anC
northeast.

gy" An interesting case of copartner-
ship, involving $780, 1000, is now before
the New York Supreme Court, Paul
Spohord appears as plaintiff at Amos NJ.
Hatch as defendant. The New York
Hsr0ld gives the following explanation
of the case:
" 1t appears that in this suit the plain
tiff and defendant entered into copart-
nership in the year 1917 in the boot and
shoe business, in Uavcrhill, Mass. The
arrangement was that Mr. Hatch should
remain in Uavcrhill, selling ond consign-
ing goods to Mr. Spofford, who was to
act as commission merchant in this city.
In 1923 Mr. Hatch came on to New
York, and they soon engaged in differ
ent branches OF business but there was
no formal dissolution Of the partnership.
Mr.. Spofford went on growing richer and
richer, and Mr.. Hatch poorer and poor
er, until in lSl6 he was declared bank
rupt. In 1917 tie present defendant
fled bill in the late Court Of Chancery
against the present plaintiff, for an ac-
count under the partnership founded un-
on an instrument under seal dated in
1929. An answer was put in but the
suit was discontinued in November 1853.
While it was still pending the plaintiff
therein, Mr.. Hatch, commenced an ac-
ton Of account at common law, in
Connecticut court, by serving summons
upon Mr.. SpoffOrd as he was on his way
to Boston III the New Haven cars. The
copartnersbip agreement was the basis
Of this, as OF the other suit, and the
damage claimed S600,000. The COM
plant IN the present suit is filed to com
pei the surrender and cancellation of the
instrument on which the plaintiff in the
action Of account relies. A necessary
part Of the relief asked is an Injunction
restraining the prosecution of any sui
based on the instrument in question. \
preliminary injunction to that effect ha
been granted, and the present motion i
TO dissolve it. Decision reserved"

I6- In Philadelphia, on Sunday af.

I6- In Philadelphia, ON Sunday af-
ternoon, an attempt was made to abduct
a young girl named A lice Weldon, who
has renounced the Catholic and adopted
the Protestant religion. She was to have
been baptized at the Spruce street Bap-
tist Church on the Sunday previous, but
as the ceremony was about to be per-
formed, her brothers interfered, aud a
serious diff Guilty was the result. On
Sunday afternoon Miss Weldon, who is
at service in the family of Mr. Webb,
was called on by her neice, who invited
her to take walk. The invitrtion was
accepted, aud upon reaching the corner
Of Second and Washington Street Miss
Weldon was seized by her three brothers
who, with the assistance Of three other
men, attempted to force her away. Her
cries, and resistance, however, attract
ed crowd, and soon the police were
upon the ground, and her brothers and
their accompliccs were arrested. On
Monday the parties had hearing be-
fore an Alderman and the assaultng
parties were held to answer to the charge
and Miss Weldon allowed to depart.
Miss w. is sixteen years of age. A
good deal OF interest was manifested in
her case.
