Yours, truly,

FINISHED THEIR LABoRs.-The telegraph
Informs us that the Joint High Commission
terminated its labors on the morning OF April
Goth, II is of course not known, outside Of
official circles. what points have been agreed
upon as the basis Of a treaty between the two
Governments, but it is believed that everything
will be in readiness to lay before meeting Of
the Cabinet on the 9Th of May. We have no
doubt however, but that the conclusions ar
rived at by the Commission, when the protocol
is made public, will be found To cmbody not
only the identical questions covered by the
JohusonClarendon treaty. which was rejected
by the Senate, but many other matters OF dill
ference which it was not intended by Congress
should be mixed up with a settlement of the
Alabama claims. The telegraph intmatcs that
some of the points agreed upon have leaked
out in some way, and that several Senators are
preparing speeches against the proposed treaty.
If such is the case, lively debate will take
place in the Senate when the matter is sub
mitted to that boz. Sumner succeeded 10 dc.
feating the John on-Carendon treaty by an
almost unanimous vote OF the Senate, and If
the new protocol is no better than that one he
will doubtless widen the breach between him
self and Grant by making a furious onslaught
on the propositions submitted as the result of
the labors of the Joint High Commission.

SHARP PRACTIcE.-The Court of Impeach-
ment in Nebraska adjourned until May 30th,
In order to give Governor Butler an opportu-
nifty to disprove, if possible, the criminal acts
which had been proven against hiM 1t was
discovered, at that time, that he was bound to
be convicted, and bis counsel of course wanted
time, which was granted. Now it is developed
that the movement on foot by Butler and his
friends, to save him, is not to procure evidence,
but to bring about a change in the State Sen
ate At this time it is believed that there is q
majority Of one for conviction, but that if one
Senator can be gained for Butler it will secure
his acquittal; so U. S. Senator Hitchcock in
duces Grant to appoint Brown Estate Senator
from Otoe county, and who would vote for
eonEiction,) Postmaster at Nebraska City.
Brown, though he would vote for impeachment
when the Court reassembles, like good Radi-
cal, gives in, accepts the bride of Grant, and
resigns his position as State Senator. This, of
course, leaves a vacancy, and breaks up the
two thirds vote for convection. Such is the
sharp practice resorted TO by the Radicals of
Nebraska, friends of Butler, and Grant aids
them in their rascally scheme.

SUIcIDE.-The Bedrock Democrat of April
29th gives an account of the suicide of Frank
Sherbert at Baker City, Oregon, on the 9th
of last month Sherbert was in the employ Of
the N. w. Stage Company as hostler and had
formerly been driving stage between Corinne
and some point in Montana; was aged about
thirty years and was believed to be Of German
parentage and native of Ohio. He shot him
self through the breast with navy revolver,
the ball passing through his heart, killing him
instantly. No cause is assigned for the act,
and it appears the more unaccountable from
the fact of his having about 5000 on his person.

TEE SOUTHERN BOUNDARY LINE.-In the
Act making appropriations for sundry civil ex-
penses Of the Government. for the year ending
June 3Oth, 1872. and for other purposes, which
was approved March 8, 1871, was an item of
Sc, 4e0 for the survey of the boundary line be-
tween Idaho and Utah As the amount appro-
priated could not be expended for the purpose
intended until after the first day of next July,
there was little probability of the survey being
made during the present year. In order to get
the line surveyed at as early day as possible,
our delegate in Congress. Hon. S. A. Merritt,
moved an amendment to section 81 of the gen.
sral appropriation bill, making the amount as
given subject to present use, so that the work
Of surveying the line could commence at once
Mr.. Dawes, the Chairman of the Committee
on Appropriations, and who had the bill in
charge, objected to and opposed the amend
ment; but Col. Merritt, after explaining the
matter to the House, succeeded in carrying bis
point, and the amendment was adopted by a
vote of 81 to So. Though the amount appro-
priated is insufficient, the Importance OF an
early settlement, by actual survey, of the bound
ary line between the two Territories is appre-
eiated, at least by the people of Idaho, and our
Delegate is certainly entitled to credit for Sc
curing an early commencement of the work.
In this connection it is but justice to our late
Delegate, Judge shafer, to state that to him
we are indebted for the appropriation being
made at all for the purpose specified The res
idents of Oneida have heretofore evaded the
payment of taxes justly due to Idaho, but at
an early day they viii be compelled to contrib
ute their full share of the public revenue.

New Jersey Sinking.

A New York telegram, dated June
22d says: "The bottom is dropping
out of the State Of New Jersey. In
Warren county during the past few
days, number of deep holes have
been suddenly made by the earth
sinking down into some fearful, un-
known, subteranean depths, The
first noticed was in the bottom Of the
Morris and Essex canal on the seven
mile level between Broadway aud
New Village. All the water in the
canal went down that hole, then q
dozen more opened in the corn fields
and woods, taking down into the
bowels of the earth great patches OF
corn and even sinking trees out OF
sight. In addition to this there are
scores Of great long and deep assures.
Then, on WEDNESDAY night, another
Zig hole opened in the canal. Rum
bling noises were heard under the
Methodist Church in Broadway, and
nobody will venture INTO the build
ING tor fear of it's going down. The
widest excitement prevails among
the people, who deem that any given
spot OF land in that country is liable
to plunge through halt way to China
at any me ment.--Priccs ofrcal es-
tate have naturally gone down. The
Morris and Essex canal is utterly ru-
iued. Its course must be altogether
changed to AVOID this district it il y
intended to ever Aold water enough
for sunfish to float in."

The Best Investment.

In his address in Texas, Horace
Greeley seems to have given a snm-
mary Of his experience, cleaned from
all the years OF his public and edito-
rial life. He says: The best Unrest
merits a farmer can make for his children
is that whieh surrounds their youth With
the rational delights Of a beauteoas, at
trGctirc home. The dwelling may be
small and rude, yet a few flowers
will embellish, as choice fruit trees
will enrich aud gladden. it; while
grass and shade are within the reach
Of the humblest. Hardly any labor
done on farm is go profitable as
that which make the wife and child
rem fond and proud OF their home.
A good practical education, in
Guiding a good trade, is better out
fit for a youth than a grand estate
with the drawback of an empty
mind. Many parents have slaved
and pinched to leave their children
rich, when half the sum thus layished
would have protited them far more
had it been devoted 70 the cultiva-
ton of their minds, the enlargement
of their capacities to think, observe,
and work. The one structure that
no neighborhood can afford to do
without is the school house.
A small library of well selected
books in the house has saved many
youth from wandering into the
baleful ways Of the prodigal son.
Where paternal strictness and sever
ity would have bred nothing but dis
like and fixed resolve to abscond
at the first opportunity, good books
and pleasant surroundings have wean.
ed many a youth from his first wild
impulse to go to sea or cross the con.
tinent. and made him docile, con.
tented, obedient. happy llngerer by
the parental treside. In family.
however rich or poor, no other good
is 30 cheap or so precious as Thoughts
