Circumstances Alter Cases.

Ii Gen. Barnes was not possessed ot yer su- perior legal attanmcnts yet, as lawyer. he had the happy faculty of impressin5 his clients that justice and law were with them in all cases. lltiIrsUne il.-s -ssi asoa ef tAis sai.siJ in q letter from friend.
 A rough countryman walkel into the office of Gen. Barnes one day and began his applica- ton:
 "Gen. Barnes, have come to get your ad- vice in case that is giving me some trouble."
 "What is the matter?''
 Suppose now," said the client, that man had one spring of water on his land, and his neighbor living below him was to build dam across a creek running through both their farms. and it was to back the water up into the other mans spring, what ought to De done?"
 "Sue him, sir, sue him by all means" said the general, who always became excited in pro- portion to the aggravation of his clients. "You can recover heavy damages, sir and the law will make him pay well for it. Just give me the case, and I'll bring the money from him; and if he hasn't great deal of property it will break him up, sir"
 |" But stop, general.'' cried the terrified an- plicant for legal advice tits me that built the dam and it's neighbor Jones that owns the spring, and he has threatened to sue me
 The keen lawyer hesitated moment before he tackled his ship, aud kept on:
 "Ah! well, sir. you say you built dam across the creek; what sort of dam was that sir?'
 |" It was milldam."
 "A mill dam for grinding grain, was it?' asked the general.
 "Yes, 1t was just that"
 "And it's good neighborhood mill, is it not; public conyenence?'
 "So it is, sir and you may well say so."
 Do your neighbors like it?''
 Yes sir; all but Jones'"
 "Tnen it is great public convience, is not sir?o
 "To be sure it is. I would not have had it built but for that It's so far to any other mill, sir"
 "And now," said the old lawyer, "you tell me that that man Jones is complaining just be- cause the water from your dam happens to put back into his little spring, and he is threatening to sue you. Well, all I have say is, let him sue, and he'll rue the day he ever thought of it. as sure as my name is Barnes"

From the MIssIssIpplah. The Location of Members of Congress

The idea that candidates for Congress should be nominated upon the mere question of their location in this or that particular corner or side of district, seems to us, exceedingly weak and falacious.
 It is frequently said that a certain locality in the district has had the nomination and the member long enough, and therefore there should be change to some other point. If the man live in the south west corner of the district, we have competition sprlnging up in the north eastern corner; or ifshe lives on the northern side of the territory, then some man from the southern edge of the district is brought for ward and it is urged that this alone is reason enough for making a change.
 Now, with all difference to those who seem to be affected by thlss sort of argument, we must say that we fal to see any force in it. A member of congress does not represent any particular town, county or locality in his district, but the whole district, and next to that the whole State.
 The idea that congressman is the peculiar re- presentative of the immediate locality where he resides, appears to us absurd, even if mem- Der were disposed to make himself, or if there were any way in which he could make himself, the representative of one portion of his district rather than another he would not do it-com- mon prudence and regard for his own interests would make him avoid any such favoritism- The spreading through district of this nature of preference of localities is calculated to do mischief. It engenders jealousies, for which there is in truth no provocation. A district is to be considered as whole, not in it's parts, by localities, or counties. and in fact it would not generally be worse for the people or for the character of Congress, if the members were chosen from the State without regard to their ' residence in particular districts. The only ob- iection to this would be the liability to have cliques of politicians formed in some locality that might exercise an undue influence in the choice of men.
 The question in the selection of candidate should not be, "Where does he live" but !" Who and what is he?' The insisting upon the rotation of the office from county to county, not unfrequently would compel the supersedure of good and efficient member by one not half so competent. Sometimes, it is true, the con- I trary result would follow and the change would be an advantageous one, but change for the better must be, and should be based on a com parison of candidates, and not upon the contrast in their places of abode, and especially when that difference is one merely of a few miles and both or all are equally residents, and would be representatives of the district. What we object t> is the giving of an undue importance

Faa Sredble. Nearly nine tenths of the isctls<see lands in England and Ireland are rented to tenants who pay usually from four to five pounds sterling (about $25) per acre an- nual rent.
 Where is the farmer in this country who could live' under such burden.
 Here, a farm containing from eighty to hun dred acres is often rented for one hundred and fifty dollars--and sometimes less--and even at this rate the tenant has hard task! The cul tivation, even where there are a large number of acres in grass, will little more than pay the rent and taxes; but n England the result is widely different. The tenant who there pays five pounds sterling, per acre, annual rent, aud finds all appliances, obtains not only the means of a comfortable subsistence, but wealth, from the prosecution of calling which here would doom him to want and desttutiou, and ultimately death, unless assisted by the town.
 In 1911, Mirwin estimated the produce of one English farm of eight hundred and ninety acres at fS S578--or S38,000! The quantity of manure applied was thirteen thousand, seven hundred and forty-six one-horse cart loads in one year, and ten thousand, two hundred and hity the next.
 Now, admitting the rent of this farm to be D ~ ; IF Der acre, and the cost of the manure ara Its application SIP more, and if to these sums we add, for interest or expenses, taxes ana vaflous contingent expenses of cultivation, e'c' Slz more, We shall find, upon striking the oaiance that there will remain profit of SlO per acre-amounting in the gross aggregate to the sum of Slo,ooO clear gain to the occupant in a single yearl
 In the-vicinty of London a hay farm com. prising one hundred and sixty acres was rented The rental, in this instance, was SIP ner acra-- amounting in all to Sl,92o per year. A heavy expenditure was required for manure-nroha. bly, as much as many New England farmer would have been willing to give for the fee simple of the land. and vet the tenant succeed ed, and has become wealthy, and with no other income than the produce derived from this one farm.
 In Ireland poor tenant had one acre of land, erected a cottage, purchased manure and farm ing tools, and the first year cleared all expenses, and had balance of forty dollars left. And yet that Irish peasant, in addition to the expen- ses and outlays above enumerated, had church tax tepay and be at the expense of purchasing his vn seed and maintaining family of four besides him5elf and wife!
 Tn this sc461ntry we c0ltivate too much land.
 Were we to cor 39ttste our energies upon one quarter of the sol Ne should derive grea- ter profit from our labof Hsd, insted of eyLlust- ing our farms, should keep them in ., ition

OT The following Is an extract from speech of Hon. Wm Vallandingham, NJ. C., from Ohio. It speaks for itself aud explains itself:
 Sir, it is the same spurious and mongrel race who constitute your " free negroes" north and south They will not be slaves, and they are not fit for freedom. And when this government shall be broken up, and the fanaticSm of the age shall have culminated in the north in red yepublieansm and negro equality and the south shall. have driven out her free negroes upon yy4. and yon shall have stolen away her slaves, then yoes.ssouhes with this race, which has al- ready plagued America for a century, will but have bHgun. They gre petty thieves now; they rob your larders and ar sheepcotes: they do fill up your peuisentiaries, ai.-i they would fill up vour hospitals and aims houses # go4 aooui9 lt hem. Then they will ba your high. waymen; vour. .bandtti; they will make up yo0t mobs. With just enough intelligence, derived from white ancestry, to know, and enough of brutishness, inherited from the old African stock, to avenge in any form, the ignominy and degredation of four thousand years; with fetish ideas of religion and fanatic notions of politics. they are the sans culotte, who, led on by the worst of white men, will make your revolutions and overturn yonr governments. Sir, such things have already occurred in histroy. They are not the baseless fabrics of vision No wonder ths States of the northwest have be- gun to erect constitutional barriers stronger than ever against negro population. In Ill this there is eminent wisdom VI a ssatesmanlike foresight "
