TRUMDULL DESCRIBED. - The Chicago
Republican thus describes Senator Trum.
bull : Trumbull is another lean, lank, dys.
peptic lawyer. Ifhis mind could be taken
to pieces, it would be found composed of a
heterogeneous mass Of musty precedents,
narrow technicalities, legal bubbles, verbal
nlceties, an old curiosity shop of black letter
logic. Chemical analysis would in vain
search for trace of human sympathy. An
ossitied heart dribbles to his brain only the
>liceOus constituents of the blood, and
makes his mental exhibitions cold, hard and
unappreciative. Like some wild ass that
SHUTS afar In some mysterious and unac-
countable way the rich green pastures which
alone can satisfy his inordinate longings,
his nostrils have been penetraed with the
savOry odorS that ascend from the White
House. The delectable fragrance strikes
his senses with unutterable qualification,
yet, with asinine incompr ehension, he trots
off in the wrong direction, and places him
self out Of reach of what he most earnestly
desires. In small way, he invites the fate
Of Webster, Seward and Chase.

ALETrER FROM CONTROLLER PARKINSON
BY the courtesy Of Mr.. Theo. A. Hale we
have been permitted to read letter just re-
ceived by him from Controller Parkinson.
The letter is dated at Verdin, Illinois, May
9th, and describes the incidents of the trim
overland, the scenery along the route, and
impression caused thereby. After leaving
Austin the first night out, the party were
treated to a capsize into an alkah swamp.
out OF which mishap they came out very wet
outside, very dry inside and, fortunately,
with no bones broken. Upon getting to the
summit of the Rocky Mountains, where the
waters, by their course determine which is
eastern and which the western slope of the
great backbone Of the Continent, Parkinson
looked toward the Pacific with a fond, ad-
miring gaze, ard taking bucket Of water
poured it down the western slope, as pledge
TO himself and the Pacific Coast that the
course Of his future life should be identified
with the fortunes of his adopted home on this
side Of the Rocky Mountains. The party
passed through the Indian country safely, |
although coaches and stations both before |
and behind them were assailed BY the saw
ages. The three travellers, Parkinson, De-
Long and Sheidell, reached their destination
in safety and health. The Controller found
his father lying dangerously ill, and, as in
duty bound, had remained by his bedside.
The trip has. as he anticipated, improved his
health; and we may confidently predict his
return between now and the Autumn, fully
cured Of his maladies. Glad to hear 20 good
news Of him.

Richland Farmers Club.

Owing to certain ,misrepresenta-
tions put in circulation, il is perhaps
necessary for us to make an explain
alton to this Club. aa
About the time of the removal Of
this Office to ontpresentnew quarters,
Mr.. Isaac II. Page. the Secretary Of
that Club, brought us long commu-
nication purporting to be the pro-
ceedings Of their fair, and the annual
address Of Mr.. Page to the society
We explained to Mr.. Page that ow-
ing to The hurry, and confusion Incl
denl to our removal and the pressure
OF other matter, and the fact that we
were crowded for rooms and short of
help, that we could not find room for
anything more than a synopsis of it,
until we wereceived our new press, which
we were just then starting for.
After we had returned from Chica-
90, and before we had got our press
and office Strengthened out, and before
we had found time to insert the adj
dress and proceedings aforesaid, Mr..
Page called in one day and demand
ed the manuscript, as he said by the
direction of the Club, which is the
last we SAW Of it until its appearance
in the Mercury
At the time he made the perempt-
tory demand we explained tohimt the
circumstances, which in our opinion
ought TO have been satisfactory to
him, and to the Club, if properly rep
resented to them, for the non-appear-
ance of the documents in our columns.
We make this long and tedious ex-
planation, for the information of the
Club, who will bear in mind how
cheerfully We have seconded their
efforts from the inception of their or
and because we are in
formed that it has been represented
to them that we refused to publish

qualifications is not the whole til

House as readily as the Senate. The
property recovered from Mr.. Orwig,
and now owned by the State will
bring nearly as much as the above
total. So the bill really gives to the

and which the State has, inrraperty.
Nobody doubts the justice and pro.
