unoccupied. All of this land can be procured at
prices ranging from 81 .25 to $3.50 per acre.
There are also thousands of acres of good land
in this Territory subject to the homestead entry.
Colorado has millions of acres Of the finest kind
of grazing land She has pasturage sufficient to
feed five million herd of cattle,-stock raising is
| one of her greatest sources or wealth. We, in
| Colorado, raise steers, which, at the age of
| three years, will make the very best of beef, at
an average cost of $50 per head. The stock-grow-
ers of this Territory let their stock run OH the
prairies, from one year to another, and do not
pretend to feed them: Cattle may be killed at
any season of the year; and they the finest
beef that can be produced. Horse and sheep
raising is very profitable business. Colorado
has, undoubtedly, some as rich mines as the
world can produce. These mines are yielding
from four to six millions annually, and the yield
Is increasing every year.
There are better openings in this Territory for
men to invest in real estate and realize large
profits from their investments, than any other
State Territory that 1 am acquainted with.
We can raise better wheat, oats, and barley
III this IerrltoTy thdu any western Otate east VI
the Rocky Mountains.
We raise mostly spring wheat, but it is as fine
| looking as any of the white winter wheat rails
ed in the states, and makes the best of flour.
Afillers coming from the states here call our
spring wheat the best quality of white wheat
The yield of wheat to the acre is from 90 to 70
bushels to the acre. The yield of oats and barley
is from 80 to so bushels to the acre. Corn, in
the northern part of the territory we can raise
but light crop, but in the southern part we can
raise very good corn.
Colorado potatoes will compare favoraby with
any part of the world. Sweet potatoes we can
raise a fair crop. Onions, cabbage, and all kinds
Of garden vegetables, we challenge the world to
produce better. Fruit we are just commencing
to grow. 1t has been but about three years since
people learned how to grow trees successfully
We have the best of water all through the
mountains, and in the valleys near the foot OF the
mountains.
This Territory abounds in all the elements
that are necessary to make rich and wealthy
state. There is an abundance of minerals such
as gold, silver, copper, lead and iron There is
also great abundance of stone coal of very good
quality.
hope you will advise people coming out west
to select locations to come and examine here be-
fore locating elsewhere. Yours

WALKING.-The greatest pedestrian tourist of
the age, who has travelled Il, 500 miles foot in
about !, years, passed through this village last
week en- route for Chicago. He stopped over
with Lawyer Montgomery day, and had
many "good time" with the citizens His
name is Colonel NJ L. De Malher and he is one
of the most intelligent gentlemen l ever saw.
PREsBYTERY.-Th OTTAWA Presbytery" con.
vened in this village last week about IA minis
tiers were in attendance. The Presbytery was in
session two days, and everything passed off in a
splendid manner. Rev. Mr.. Crawford is presi-
ding minister here.
LYCEUM.-The Somonauk Lyceum is progress
ing very finely. The question of aboishing cor
poral punishment in schools will probably be
carried. The question now under discussion is,
"Resolved, that nou-lcense law would be the
best means of suppressing incompetence"
HOr.-The Germans ''all around town" had q
grand "touch the light fantastic" &C., last night
in Hess Hall. Those present enjoyed themselves
hugely.

One of the largest crowds attended this con-

question whether the interests of Temperance

Whereupon Rev. Mr. Stoug hton, of Chicago wa.
requested to state his views on the subject The
Chicago gentleman took the floor He was in
favor OF new party; there is no other way to
meet the question. The battle is as to who shall
hold the Offices. The foes OF temperance de-

wipe out our legislation on the subject, and then
we can get at it. Can now do nothing, and
hence must organize a movement and change

action Of their representatives, it is a matter
of profound indifference whether the loafers
and lobbyists of Washington have good seats
in the galleries or not. AS matter of choice,
indeed, it is desirable that the Senators
should not be surrounded by large
crowds, for their freedom of action
and expression is sometimes iniu-
riousy affected by the local influences, and
they are tempted to talk and vote in the inte-
rest of their auditors rather than in the inte-
rest of their distant constituents. Legislation
would probably be decidedly improved by
material diminution in the size of the galle-
ries and an enforced absence of the audiences
which are now assembled in them. Another
defect of the hall is said to be an arrange
ment of the skylight which results, in even
ing sessions, in rapid roasting of the scalps
and skulls of the members, so that in this
particular, at least, q serious personal incon-
venience appears to be involved in the public
services rendered to the nation by the M. @. S.
Another complaint is that the hall is fre-
quently filed with the fumes of tobacco, and
one member alleges that he does not know a
more appropriate place for a smoke-house.
But perhaps the most distressing grievance is
that announced by the distinguished member
from Pennsylvania, Mr.. Covode, who stated
that, while all parts of the hall were
badly ventilated, experiments which he had
tried had demonstrated that the foulest
air in the House was that Immediately around
where he stood" We are told that his cruel
associates, instead of manifesting sympathy
for his distress received his statement with
roars of laughter, but as the joint resolution
authorizing experiments to improve the ven-
tilation of the hall was subsequently adopted,
we hope he will speedily be relieved, and
meanwhile, if Congress should also resolve to
diminish the size of the galleries and arrange
the House in the manner best calculated to
advance the interests of the whole nation,
instead of consulting the convenience of the
residents of Washington and the visitors to
that city, that change would also meet general
approval
The evening telegraph. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1864-1918, 1870-04-29

The BRITISH PARLIAMENT is now agtating
itself over the question whether man shall
be allowed to marry his deceased wife's sister
The English law forbids such marriages, but
for what reason no one has been able
to account in a satisfactory manner. The
question of the necessity and propriety of the
law has frequently been raised, and efforts
have been made to have it abolished A bill
is now before Parliament for this purpose,
which, of course, meets with a determined
opposition from certain members who APP
pears to think that because the prohibition
has been the law from time immemorial,
it therefore must be based upon some
substantial reasons. The probabilities are,
however, that, even if the law is not repealed
at the present session of Parliament, it will
be before long, to the CONSERVATION of sound
Churchmen and staunch tories, who seem to
consider it one of the bulwarks of the Church
and State. The world will probably wag
much in its usual way, even if a man is
allowed to marry his deceased wife's sister in
England as he is in other civilized countries,
and those who look for darkening of the
heavens and the Inauguration of the grand
fnality when Parliament wipes this queer old
regulation from the statute books will be
doomed to disappointment, and will discover
that worse things might happen to England
and the world.

THE FOLLY OF NAPOLEON.

The folly of the Emperor In insisting upon
an appeal to the people of France is becoming
more and more manifest. If Napoleon had
been content to grant liberal concessions to
the Chambers and the people, he would have
strengthened his position materially; but
when he comes before the people and de-
mands from them an unqualified endorsement
of his whole policy, as the price of the privi-
lege of endorsing his concessions, he but
gives the irreconcilable element such an
opportunity as it seeks SO eagerly and so
heartily embraces. Although the pronunca-
mentos of both the Emperor and his ministers
declared emphatically that the question of
the empire could not be dragged into the
canvass, the people were invited to assemble
and discuss the plebiscjte; but, at the same
time, they were told in plain terms that the
only result of such discussion that would be
agreeable to the Emperor would be unani-
nous determination to vote Eyes, and that
negative vote or the neglect to vote at all
would be regarded as a declaration of enmity
to the whole imperial regime. The people,
especially those of Paris, have not
been backward about engaging in the public
discussions which were invited, and the re-
ports of the proceedings at their meetings
which come to us by the cable show that all
France is again in an uproar. The hostility
to the empire which Olivier crushed out for
the time by consigning Rochefort to prison
has been fairly aroused again, and is mani
tested by marked disorder at the meetings in
all parts of France, and especially in the capi-
tai, by cries of "Vioe la Repu6BQue" and the
singing of the ''Marseillaise" But there is
promise of an even more serious demon
stration against the empire Many of these
meetings have declared with great unanimity
in favor of voting ''no" on the pIeJiScite or of
abstaining from voting altogether, fully con-
scious of the fact that by so doing they will
be pronouncing not against the liberal re-
forms which the Emperor has inaugurated,
but against the empire itself. Present ap-
pearances indicate that the negative and
silent vote will be very large, much larger
than the Government had any cause to appre-
hend at the outset. 1t is possible that the
crisis will pass without subjecting the pre-
sent regime to any serious shock, but if the
opposite result should ensue, it will not be
matter of surprise.
