Home Papers.

Stick to your home newspapers. No matter if
you are poor, remember that none are so poor as
the ignorant, except it be the depraved, and they
too often go together. Stick to your O,cn paper,
though it may not be SO large or imposing as some
city weekly, but remember it is the advertiser
of your neighborhood and daily business, and tells
you what is going on around you, instead of
thousand miles away If it is not printed on as
nice paper rs the weeklies, and as good as you
wish to have it, pay your subscriptions promptly,
and get your neighbor to do the same, and rely
upon it, the natural pride of the publisher will
prompt him to improve as fast as possible.

Within that brief period scenes Of violence and

which, In point of numbers and incidents, have
outdone Congress. No less than Eve disgrscc-
full fights, attended with more or less serious
danger 70 the parties concerned, have taken
place between the delegates at Baltimore dur

and HindmaD fight; the Yost and Brannan fight;
the whitley and Townsend fight; the Randall
and Montgomery fight and the Clancy and Lud-
low fight In most Of these cases blows were
given, blood drawn, and deadly weapons ex-

exhausted the vocabulary Of opprobrious cpl

and the pistol, covering themselves with blood

{ CAMPAIGN LEousiATURE-TH H0MEsrEAS
BuL~-One of the greatest evils connected witt
our electioneering cxcitements is the influence
which they exercise over our State and Con-
gressional Legislation. Measures are introduced
which. in nine cases out Of ten, have either
nothing to recommend them or are positively
mischievous. Their authors have rarely any ex-
pectation of carrying them through, but Il
nevertheless somtimes happens that they pass
into law, through accidental combinations, or ~
the results of party compromises.
The approach Of every Presidential electisn
mandates Congress with measures more or teas
of this character. Thus, during the prssenk sss-
sion, we have had new Tariff bill TO coacilists
Pennsylvania and New Jersey, which arc co.,
sidered the pivotal States in the Presidential
canvass Then we have had Pacific Railroad
bills for four different routes, all Of which ere
intended to affect the popular vote in tho from
tier States Of the Mississippi valley, and =
Texas and the Pacific States The Tshuaar
tepec and Central American routes have
each been supported more with = view -
their political effect upon the South than -
ly introduced in the House was black repub-
lican measure, intended to win support in the
Northwest. 1t dealt prodigslly with the public
lands, throwing them everywhere open to the
actual settler, subject merely to charge of ak
| cents per acre TO meet the expense of registra-
ton. To defeat this a bill was introduced in
the Senate excluding all but heads of families,
excluding pre-emptors now on the lands, but
giving them certain time to buy at govern
ment price, comforting its provisions merely 70
| lands remaining after public sale, and charg-
ing twenty five cents an acre, beside the Land
| Office fees. A Committee of Conference was APP
| pointed, and after twelve meetings compromise
| bill was agreed upon, which has finally passed
| both houses II opens for homesteads one-half
the surveyed public lands not yet offered 1t
| public sale, and all the lands now subject 70
private entry, but it retains the charge of twen-
ty-fve cents per acre, and excludes all but
heads Of families. Pre-emptors now on the
lands are to have their homesteads at sixty-two
and half cents (half the former price,, and are
to have ten years TO pay it in. a
This modification of the House bill Is an i'm
provement on the original measure, and will
effect saving to the country. The government
lands are public domain, and they ought not 70
be FILTERED away 10 promote the electioneering
! interests of political parties. If Congress ia -
| be thus made constant vehicle for reaching the
different interests involved in Presidential
canvass, it Is evident that by-and-by we shall
have but sorry account Of the public property
entrusted 10 its charge. h.
