important Decision.


A decision in reference to the right of
settlers on the Choetaw neutral lands in
Kansas has just been made by Hon..
D. Cox, Secretary of the Interior, which
settles the mixed question which has
located on those lands. Instructions in
ion have been sent to the proper author
tiles in Kansas. The following is the
opinion 90 FaE fasaz steIuEe1s
WASHINGTON, July 6, 1869.
SIR have carefully examined your
report Of the 21st of April. relative to
the communication of W. R. Ian ghtor,
tiers of the Choctaw neutral lands in
Kansas, in their behalf asking the sale
of those lands to j. F. Fay, under con-
tract with this Department, dated June
8, 1868; and that the settlers be allow
ed to purchase the tracks so settled up
on. now return to you Mr.. Langhtor's
letter, with the request that you will IL
form Hon. S. Clark-by whom it was re-
ferred-that the Department can recog-
nize no rights in the class of settlers
represented by Mr.. Langhtor, and there
fore declines to take the action applied
for. In the same report you bring my
notice to the fact that the settlers upon
the lands which have been heretofore
reported by the appraisers as entitled
TO them, and the parties thereupon have
not been notified to make payment of
the appraised value Of tracts awarded
them, giving as reason for not COM
plying with the instructions of this De-
partment (of the 28th of Feb. last) the
want Of an adequate clerical force, in
your office to make the proper compari-
son of the tract books with the place of
survey. In order to remove this diff
Guilty and close the whole business
with as little delay as possible, you are
authorized to employ the necessary
clerical assistance in case Of contested
claims upon lands settled upon prior or
at the date of the notification of the
treaty concluded with the Ckerokees,
July 10, 1866. You will be governed
alone by the award of the Com mission

THE EGG TRADE-aThere are very
few persons who have an idea of the ex.
tent OF the value of eggs as an article of
commerce. tits said that France alone
produces seven to eight billions annually
- quantity which if blown and strung
would twice encircle the globe France
exports about $4,000, 900, chiefly to
England. The estimated production of
eggs in Great Britain is two billion an
nnally.and yet England pays about &c.
900, 900. in gold for importations from
France, Belgium and Holland The egg
trade Paris is q very important one,
and subject to municipal Restraint. They
are sold in baskets of 1,04O each. They
must not only be whole and fresh, but of
a certain size, and officials are appointed
by the city Government. who inspects
not only the number and quality but the
size of the eggs. These inspectors are
supplied with rings, all eggs passing
through which are condemned.
SENATOR MORTON has accepted the invitation of the
Ohio State Central Communities to open the campaign
in that State, and will speak the evening of the

head the other day and said, George.
my boy, this is the happiest part of your
life 1 guess my Aunt Libby don't
know much. 4 guess she never worked
week to make kite. and the first time
she went TO fly it got the tail hitched in
a tree, whose owner wouldn't let her
climb up to disentangle it. / guess she
never broke one Of the runners Of her
sled some Saturday afternoon when it
was prime coasting. Guess she never
had to give her biggest marbles to a
great, lubberly boy, because he would
thrash her if she didn't. I guess she
never had honey stick play around
her ankles in recess, because she got
above a fellow in the class. | guess she
never had him .twitch off her hest cap
and toss it in mud puddle. I guess
she never had to give up her humming-
top to quiet the baby and had the paint
all sucked off. Iguess she never saved
up all her coppers a whole winter to
buy trumpet, and then was told she
must not blow it, because it would make
q noise!
No-I guess Aunt Libby don't know
much. Little boys have troubles as
we'll as grown people-all the difference
is they daren't complain. Now, I new
