New 10 rltish Acquisitions ON this COnttnenl

For number of years past it will
be remembered that the British Gov
eminent has insisted most strenOuslv
upon the, to us, Objectionable clause
of the CIayton-Bulwer treaty with ref
erence to the South and Central Amer
lean States. The proposition made in
Congress to abrogatc the treaty and
the sensation, which it created will al
40 be remembered. This proposition az
ter some considerable discussion, part
ly in consequence Of the prompt apol-
ogies offered by England for the out
RACES committed by her vessels of war
and the restoration of friendly rela-
tons and partly through the fear that
the move would be considered decla-
ration of war, was dropped by common
consent, and later, the ratification of
the Cass- Yrissari Treaty was not CON
cluded without the fear that the clause
which j, contained granting to the
r;:ei States the power to do acts in
conirsyen;ion OF the CLAYTON Bulwer
Trsa,v. would result in a disturbance
81 oar relations with England. 1t was
therefore with considerable surprise in
all circles, that the news was received
a few days, since that England had vol
UNFAIRLY offered to annul the object
onal clause in the Treaty. But the ex-
PLANTATION now comes in the shape Of
sdvices from England .ha. Great But-

Another Republican Blunder.

To add to the numerous difficulties
and embarrassments IN which our Re-
publican constitution makers, and law
givers have involved us, we now have
another. Although under the impress
sion that they were improving and ma
king everything perfect, they have by
their bungling" way of dong things,
mixed up" our laws and constitu-
tons so that no one can make "head
or tail" ont Of them.
Another development Of contradic-
ton, is with reference to the time oil
holding elections. Whether we shall
hold an election in April next or not,
is a question which no one appears to
be able to decide satisfactorily. Judge
kelso, of Jackson county, decides that
there will be no election, while Judge
Cary, of McGregor, holds that there
will, and thus throughout all the coun-
ties in the State we find the same d.
vision OF opinion. Elections will he
holden in about half of the count;es
while the other half will hold none
and the result will be a universal con.
hict OF authority and innumeraole law
suits.
Verify the State of Iowa owes mucb
to the Republican party.

There is no title claimed either in
the City of Keokuk or any other por.
ton of the Half Breed Tract, but
what is based on the decree referred Il
by the above named John II. Lines
Esq. There never was any decision OF
adjudication to confirm that decree by
the United States Court.
The statement on each of the Rec
ords seems to be q reliable Record o.
the fact that the setting of the Title
to the Half Breed Tract was done on
bed in a tavern at Fort Madison on
the last day and part Of the last night
of the April term Of the Territorial
Court in ls41; and the Aotching Of
the same was done in room in the
same tavern on the same night be-
tween the hours of ten and twelve
o'clock. The party who attended to
the setting and Matching Of Title have
expended a large sum of money in
patching and bolstering the same and
in evading adjudication in the United
States and other courts. But as yet
no decision has ever been made to
sanction that Decree. The matter is
now and has been since 1912 in Liti-
CATION and will continue in Litigation
until that midnight decree is altered OF
vastly modified. Nj.

On the 26th, two sergeants and the wives
travelling from Fort Buchanan to the Rio

Springs only eighteen miles from the Fort
by war party of Apaches. Sergeant KEEL.
Icy was shot dead Sergeant Berry fell NOR

heroism. The women, instead of screaming
and fainting after the usual feminine style,
seized the revolvers of their slain husba nds
and commenced fling at the Indians, with
such accuracy that the murderous wretches
fled without booty.
Intelligence OF the attack reached the fort
somehow. Captain Ewell. the commander,
with detachment Of dragons. was absent

Before leaving Japan we saw . most

Dutch friends had presented us with a
small box, containing what looked like
several hundred peices Of broom straw
three eights Of an inch in length
Throw one of those in that cup of hot
WATER he said. We did as desired.
and it had no sooner touched the sur.
face than it expanded into perfect
representation ofa japanese woman in
full dress. Another proved to be a
buffalo-likc COW; third was a sword
and fourth handsome walking cane
Throw III dozen at time.' said onr
friend. Ut course We complied, pick.
ing item up At random, and all proved
to be different. There we're bou.e.
short tail goats, horses, trees and flov'
ers; and ! suppose had We thrown in
half the box, We should have seen
duplicates Of almost everything known
to the japanese. As it was, however.
We curbed our curiosity, divided the
contents of tho box between n. .r5
