Fatal Case OF POisOniBg, On Friday

which should be lesson 10 all mot TO eat Of roots

The NorlbeTn pociic Land Cfab.

As we anticipated, from the strong combnas
tion disclosed in the passage Of Oregop Railroad
bill, with grant OF two million acres Or so OF
public lands, another branch OF the land grab
bing ring triumphed yesterday in the passage
Of the Northern Pacific Railroad bill. II had
already passed the Senate. By this bill tens OF
millions of acres OF public Land are given away,
In addition 10 the already liberal grams to this
company of greedy specuators All the nu-
merous amendments were voted down, with Tue
steady tread Of n compact and we'll disciplined
organization, and the bill was passed, 10I y 80.
In 1854, the Northern Pacific Railroad Cpm-
pany obtained from Congress grant said to be
equal to forty miles IN width along the wholo
line Of the proposed route: They have received
other valuable grants, and should have had the
work wcll advanced toward completion long
ago. Yet little has been done, The grantors,
like Oliver Twist, have ALWAYS been haukering
for more. They had good thing already, but
while they were in the way Of pluRder, they
have manifested resolute purpose Of enrich
ing themselves out Of Uncle Sans domain to
the uimest possible extent They organized a
powerful lobby, compacted their Combinations,
drew all posi- i1lBi3B no their ring,
and now wea 'irIstD trIi.i It's one Of
the most gigantic l.irJtIII " the kind ever
undertaken, and has bJ)i pIshld In defiance
Of an almost universal pupu ar sentiment. The
result should startle and alarm the nation.
There Is one hope-only one-of defeating the
cnnsprators, who have still another mammoth
scheme to bring forward as part Of the pro-
gramme, in the shape of the southern Pacific
Railorad bill now pending. That hope, that
sole resource Is in the veto power Of the Presi :
dent As earnest friends and supporters Of the
Administrations, we call upon President Grant 10
take a bold and fearless stand against these
schemes. This is his great opportunity. Let
him turn deaf 10 all siren s'ngs, to all per-
soual opportunities Of the pluuderers, 10 every
plausible pretencc from whatever source, ard
| look at the case as 1t appears to the people.
No power can stand before an outraged public
opinion. There is still small voice the voice
of the people, the voice Of destiny to all nation
| al rulers which he NAV not at this moment
| hear. amid the noisy clamors at the capitol /.
| The President should know that his actinn is at
I this moment everywhere awaited with intense
solicitude. lie has responsibility not To be
| evaded. Let him eIectrfy the country by say
ing 10 the plunderers "Thus far but no fartherV'
Let them hear the will Of the natl N in his effect

Look out for Siigh.s.-There are some
people, yes, many people, always looking out
for sights. They can not carry on our daily
intercourse OF the family without suspectiug
some offelse is designed. They are as touchy
as haiT triggers. If they meet an acquaintance
in the street who happens to be preoccupied
with business, they attribute his abstraction to
some motive personal to themselves and take
umbrage accordingly. They lay on others the
fault of their own irritabiity. A fit Of indges-
tion makes them see imprudence in everybody
they come in contact with. Inno:e persons
who never dreamed Of giving ofense, are aston
Ished to find some unfortunate word or some
momeutary taciturnity, mistaken for an insult.
To say the least the habit is unfortunate. 1t is
far wiser to take the more charitable view OF
our fellow beings, and not suppose a slight is
intended unless the neglect is open and direct
After all, to, life Iakes its hue, in great degree,
from the color of our own mind. II we are
frank generous, the world treats us kindly. II
on the contrary,we are suspicious, men learn 10
be cold ani cautious to us. Let a person get
the reputation of being touchy, and every body is
under more or less restraint, and in this way
the chances Of an imaginary ofense are vastly
increased.

Too Poor to Take n Paper Brother
MOORE of the Raral Ns,o Yorker, was sitting in
his office one afternoon. when a farmer friend
came 10 and said
"Friend Moore, like your paper, but times
are so hard | can't paw for it,"
is that so, friend Jones I'm very sorry TO
hear you are so poor and il you really are so
bard run win give you my paper"
"0h, no ! | can't take it as gift"
"Well, then let's see how we can fix ii. You
raise chickens, believe"
"Yes, few; but they don't bring anything
hardly"
Don't they? Neither does my paper cost
anything hardly. Now I have a proposition to
make to you /; Will continue your paper, and
when you go home you may select from your
flock one hen and call her mine. Take care of
her and bring me the proceeds, whether in eggs
or in chickens, and we will call it square "
"All right, Brother Moore" and the old man
chucked at what he thought a capital bargain.
He kept the CONTRACT strictly, and at the end Of
the year found that he had paid about four prices
for his paper. He often tel 8 he joke on himself,
and says he never had the face to say he was
too poor to take the paper since tha, day.
