Wool Raising.

The New York Tribune, of late date,
makes mention of the fact that "there is a
continued, steady feeling in favor of making
Texas one of the greatest wool producing
States in the UnioD,'' and states that blood
ed rams are being shipped to that State from
New Jersey for the purpose of improving
the stock.
Wool-growIng has. become very profit
able business, and is as sure as profitable.
Wool pays for transportion much better than
any grain, and the demand is also constant,
and even increasing. Its production is at
tended with but little risk. A small amount
of capital can be proftably employed in this
way, and the stock, with proper care, will
steadily increase.
Kansas possesses all the advantages Of
Texas for the profitable production of wool,
as well as some not possessed by the former
State The advantage of climate in Kansas
is no uncomfortable one.
We should much like to see more sheep
in Kansas-more attention paid to wool
growing. 1t can be made a source of great
wealth TO the country, and will be source
of income when all kinds of graio will be 6
drug IN the market. With the production
of wool here in large quantities will come
the demand for factories to convert it into
fabrics and We are confident that as soor
as the growth of wool viii justify, wooler
factories will he erected In our midst. LIE
our farmers think of these things.

WHY COvET CUBA,

Let it nowhere be forgotten nor shuffled out OF
sight that Mr.. Benjamin of Louisiana, the able and
plausible advocate Of the acquisition Of Cuba, as OF
all other schemes tending to diAuse and eternize
Human Slavery, deliberately bases his argument on
the following proposition;
"The first leading fact which ought TO be kept con-
stantly in view by all who would form just conceptions
ON u ia subject s that the wealth and productveness
of this island have been created and their continuance
can oniv be secured by system Of compulsory laooT
IL the experience or mankind has solved single in.
dustrial problem we may fairly sssume as granted
that tropical productions can be maintained, on scale
pulsory labor alone"
This is his fundamental, vital reason for wish
isg Cuba transferred to the United States which
be proceeds to anplify and fortify most artfully.
His whole argument runs in these grooves sub
stantially:
l. Compulsory Labor"-that is, Human Slay-
ery-must be maintained in tropical America, espe-
cially in Cuba.
2. 1t cannot and will not be, unless Cuba becomes
portion of our Union, owing to the great prepon-
derance of males among the Cuban slaves, the
average shortness of their lives and the impedi-
msnts now offered to the prosecution Of the Afri-
can Slave trade.
3. Therefore, Cuba must speedily become pos
,eision of the United States, or Slavery in that
island will perish, and Slsvey in all tropical
America receive thence deadly wound.
Farmers and Mechanics Of the Free States !!
One Hundred and Fifty Millions Of Dollars is the
estimated cost of wrestling Cuba from Spain, and
YOUR experience will assure you that the cost Of
such jobs rarely falls below the original estimate
and generally transcends it heavily. But suppose
the cost not to exceed the estimate-One Hundred
Millions Of the aggregate must be wrenched from
your sweat and tol-s sum Of at least $50 for each
family in the Free States. Are you willing to be
thus taxed to prolons the life Of tropical Slavery
for another generation If you arc not, say so at
once-ssy it so that it may be heard-say it in your
ensuing Elections

THE IVES AND HAZARD CASE.

The chief trovocstive of the existing agitation
in the State of Rhode Island in relation to the
Of Ives w. Hazard, and of the pending proceedings
growing out of it in the Rhode Island Legislature
is the allegation that the assuming of chancery
jurisdiction by the Supreme Court for the specific
enfor cement of tho contrsctif contract there was
between Ives and Hazard was pure usurpation
on the part of that body.
It is certain that from early times the people Of
great antipathy to chancery proceedings, and that
beyond the two cases Of mortgages and bonds with
condition, no equity powers whsteTer were be-
slowed upon the Courts of Rhode Island down to
the year 1929. Early in tie present century, the
granting of such powers began TO be- warmly urged
by many of the members of the legal profession,
both in Massachusetts, and Rhode Island. They
insisted that there were many case, in which the
common law furnished, 10 REMEDY or no adequate
remedy; but the Legislature of Rhode Island, ike
that of Massachusetts,, for a long time turned
deaf ear to all these representations regarding the
expenses, delays and risks Of chancery proceed.
ings including as they did, the substitution Of the
Court in place of Jury and of written dispositions
in place Of RIGA roce testimony as q remedy, on
the whole, rather worse than the disease-and the
case of Ives vs.. Hazard, and that Of it. twin
brother, Ives VS.. Armstrong, do certainly show, if
nothing else that proceedings in Charcery are, in
Rhode Island, as elsewhere, very costly luxury.
The Legislature of Massachusetts was, however,
at length prevailed upon to grant, item BY item,
Chancey powers to the Supreme Court Of that
State, in certain specified cases; and the Legisla-
ture Of Rhode Island, which generally, in mstters
of that sort has followed in the footsteps Of Mas
sachusetts, was at length induced to adopt the
same policy. Thus, in ls29, the Supreme Cour.
was vested with Equity jurisdiction in all
cases relating to trust estates created BY deeds Of
assignment for the benefit Of creditors; and in 1886
this Jurisdiction was made to embrace all trust
estates, whether real personal, however created.
The same year and the next, Equity jurisdiction
vas conferred in all controversies between copart.
ners, the Court being also authorized In 1877 to
issue ipjunctious against railroad or turnpike cor
poratons trasscendrg or abusing their corporate
rights. In l541, full Equity powers were given in
all cases of fraud, but the fact Of fraud or no
fraud was to be tried by Jury.
So stood the law down TO the time OF the suhsti-
tuition Of Constitution in place Of the old colonial
charter-the Equity lowers Of the Supreme Court
being strictly Limited to the cases above enumer.
sted. and tbs specific enforcement Of contracts

THE selfconfdence Of the selfignorant is not
only vain but ridiculous. And it is matter OF
note, with what strange facility some men ina
CINE themselves possessed Of virtues and abilities
seen only to themselves through the lens of
inordinate sefesteem. Humility is virtue and
an ornament of character. And there is nothing
which so inspires and fosters il as the study OF self
In short it may be asserted that the humility OF
men is in exact proportion TO their know ledge OF
self aud on the other hand their pride is in pro-
portion to their ignorance OF self The most ar
rogant are generally those who are most ignorant
of tbemselves-who have not analyzed their
hearts to know their weakness. Men are more apt
to see and cricse the faults of others than their
own-to see the mote in the eye of their fellow.
while they are insensble to the beam in their

attempted but failed to land at Nuevas Granadcs,
Cuba. Another attempt was made to land on the
7th, but the boats were swampcd and munitions
lost
PHILADELPHIA, May 5th.-E Ex-Judge Wander

PITTSBURGH, May 7th.-A dreadful fire broke
out here to-day, destroying ten steamboats, The
loss is estimated at $4,000.
HALIFAX, May 5th.-The steamer Niagara ar
rived with the most exciting European news. The
London Times of the 2Gth of April, issued spe
cial edition containing the following dispatch -
TURIN, April 2ls-Gen. Gyulai, the Austrian
Commander in Lombardy, has been ordered to
present the utimatum of Austria, requiring the
disarmment and sending away of the Sandman
volunteers If this be refused, war is to be de-
cared in days. Two additional divisions of the
Austrian army. amounting to $4,000 men, have
been ordered to the Tcno. The English propo
sal for a Congress on the same conditions as that
at Labach has been refused. The London Times
adds We have reason TO believe that the same
telligence has been received by the government.
The Cabinet Council was at once summoned, and
the English government promptly telegraphed to
Vienna the strongest protest against the above
menace The evening Werdid contains a similar
announcement, which is otherwise fully confirmed.
The Vienna correspondent of the London .NeCS,
telcgraphed under the date Of Thursday noon,
follows -" Day before yesterday, Austria for
warded categorical summons to Sardinia, to
dissolve the free corps. a reply is to be given
within 3 days from the receipt Of the summons
and an equivocal answer is to be construed a
refusal" The Paris Monitear Of Friday says
that Austria has not given its adhesion to the
proposal made by England, and accepted by
France, Prussia aud Russia. The Constitutional
announces that part OF the army has been ordered
to be ready to march
LONDON, April 27th.-Tbe London Times says
that the reply of the Emperor Of Austria has
been received He declines to reconsider the
responsibility incurred iu commencing the war in
the heart Of Europe.
THE English journals generally think that the
last chance of peace has about vanished. The
London UerdM gives, in semi-otfciaI form,
specific and conclusive information of the move
ments of the French troops. II says that orders
have been given for the embarkaton at Toulon
of 80, 900 troops. The total French forces destin
ed TO cooperate with Sardinia, in the event of
war. is estimated at so 900. They will be under
the Emperor in person
