city yesterday, with an ox-team convey
ance, on her way to homestead, seven
teen miles above Alexandria, Douglas
County, some 200 miles from this city.
She had previously gone up and pre-
emp.ed farm under the homestead law,
and built house, and went back to near
Red Wing for her aged mother. She
found her mother sick, and, after wait
ing several weeks for her recovery, it be-
ing necessary for her to return to look to
her homestead, she started alone, with
her household goods on sled, hauled
by an ox-team, O cow being tied along
side. The woman, who is Swede, did
not appear to be at all appalled, by the
prospect of her many days journey to
he' lonely home"

In some excellent remarks recently
made by Count Daru, the Minister Of

LegislaI; he said: :;
The political stage is not one on

ally produced with any advantage to the
It.has occurred to us that our editorial
fraternity mightjwell bear this suggestion
in mind. Some editors seem to think
that they are nothing if not sensational
Consequently, we have all kinds of crude
views and ill-digested theories constantly
brought forward. Every day almost
brings forth some new political oonceit-
which after all is simply for effect-a
veritable coup de theatre. This, now,
may be very amusing to some readers.
Bat sof far as tending to genuine political
reform, or to the right informing of the
public mind, or to the formation of q
sound, public sentiment, this style of
thought and writing to which we are
alluding, is very wide of the mark. AS
for ourselves we have no new or royal
mode of carrying political reforms, or of
winning political successes. Nor have

preston is, that political points are to
be carried in the same way that they
have always been carried in this country,
viz: By thorough organization, by un-
wearied activity. by steady persistency,
by earnest advocacy, by vigorous effort,
by well-arranged and sagacious pro-
grammes.

No INCoMETAx LAWS. s.-The Baltimore
Sun says: The fact that the income tax
is now being collected for 1869 has led to
a Misrepresentation among the public
generally on the subject. Instead of
sending petitions to Congress for its re-
peal, the form given to popular ex-
preston on the subject should be re-
spectful protests against the re-enactment
of the law, either at the present or a re-
duced rate, as it is fact that the income
tax law stood repealed on the 31st of
January, 1869. by limitation. After its
assessment for 1869 is paid, no other in
come tax can be collected or assessed
without the enactment of an entirely
new law. A bill passed the House under
the previous gag rule some days ago,
providing for tho assessment and col
lection of an income tax for one year
(1870), but it met with disastrous defeat
in the Senate. There is reason to hope,
therefore, that Congress will not put such
q needless burden upon the people again
in face of the unanimous protest of the
entire press of the country. The occa-
sion that called for it has entirely passed
away. Therefore, let us have no more
income tax laws.

SENTENCE OF A FEMALE PERJURER
Sarah Gore, white woman, convicted in
Philadelphia of perjury, has been fined
$500 and sentenced to the penitentiary
for seven years. Judge Paxon, in pass
ing sentence, thus addressed the pris-
oner:
"You deliberately and falsely charged
q respectable citizen with high crime
upon your person. And having made it,
you brought him iuto this court on trial,
and upon that trial you committed will
full, deliberate and corrupt perjury, in
order to convict him. You did all you
could to consign an innocent man for a
long term of years to the penitentiary,
and to blast his reputation for all time.
Nor is that all. 1 have judicial know
ledge of the fact that you have made
similar charges against several other re-
spectacle citizens, for the purpose of ex-
torting money, and that in some of these
cases you have been successful; but Mr.
Weiner would not submit to your de-
mands. He appeals to jury of his fell
| wcitizens, and they have vindicated
him; and he has also brought you to the
bar of justice, for which he deserves the
thanks of every good citizen.
"Your offence is one which Can receive
no mercy here. While we give burglar
the extreme penalty of the law, we can
do no less in case like this. A man
had better have twenty burglars in his
house than one such woman as you. A

citizen. You would rob him of his good
name to make him infamous in the COM
munity, as we'll as SOW the seeds of dis
