Mr.. McCrary of Iowa introduced an inn
portant bill in the House Monday, to reg

1t provides general law, under which,
upon certain terms and conditions, COM
panies may be incorporated and author
lied to build and operate railroads, canals,
or other highways running through two
or more States, or through the territory of
the United States, or to establish and
carry on the business of an expires COM

the object being to multiply lines of COM
munication from the West to the East
The annual message of Governor Davis
of Texas shows an improved condition of
affairs in that State, very small debt
tolerably good school system, which is
open to improvement, and large and
constantly increasing immigration. With
immigration is also coming capital, which
is building internal improvements on
every hand, and adding considerably to
the wealth and business of the State
Texas, under Republican government, is
more prosperous than ever before in its
history.

This gives the business into the hands of one

ing firms in the country, noted for the supe-

Society of the difficulties and labors of super
intending its printing and publishing, and from
danger of error and mismanagement to which
such concerns are liable. The change will I'M
doubtedly be favorable to both.

towns do, but on the whole it was deemed
most advantageous for the town to invest,
and SO the town has invested. The consti-
tuition doesn't say the town may, or declare
that it shall not, SO invest; but the general
spirit of the instrument is, that towns may do
what in the Judgment of the majority OF the
citizens is for the general advantage"
So the common sense of the community
reasons, and the reasoning is allowed to be
valid, for in reality we hear no complaints OF

A TERRIBLE Observation-Disclosures
ADRIFT OF A FIELD OF ICE.-In Haver-
straw Bay, on the Hudson River, Satur-
day, one hundred and seventy men were
fishing from the edge of large field of
ice. At about 4 o'clock in the after
noon the cry Of "The ice is moving
spread CONSERVATION among them. The
widest excitement followed. The entire
field of ice, embracing the whole chan
mel of Haverstraw Bay, was moving,
and carrying with it nearly two hundred
human beings. Pixies and nets were
dropped and there was a rush for safety
while the air was filled with cries for
help. In ten minutes both shores were
lined with people who ran wildly about
not knowing what to do. Finally few
OF the more cool headed launched four
boats and started on dangerous voyage
OF rescue. In the meantime nearly all
OF the fishermen had reached the edge
of the ice, and plunging in the freez.
ing water reached the shore covered
from head to foot with ice. Nine men
were left on the ice, which the surging
tide was swinging far out into the river.
Again the boats started to the rescue,
but before they reached the floating ice
hive of the men were struggling in the
water. They were pulled into the boat
nearly dead from cold, and taken to the
shore. The boat again put out, but at
this time the floating ice to which four
men still chung, had reached a point two
miles below. The men could be seen in
the centre of the field stamping, throw
ing up their arms, and shouting for help,
The edges of the ice were being gradual.
~ broken off and assures opened in all
directions. The boat reached the edge
OF the field, but the men could not be
induced to leave the center. Time dragg.
ed until 10 o'clock, and the ice had float.
ed six miles down the river, when the
men IN the boats succeeded in getting a
footing on the crumbling edge. They
found the four fishermen in a terrible
condition, with feet, noses, hands and
ears frozen. They had given up all
hopes of succor. They were with diff.
Guilty got to the boats. All esca ped from
the ice field in safety and landed on the
west shore, ten miles from where they
started. The fishermen are receiving
medical treatment. Their condition is
precarious, though they may recover.

The struggle in Congress to repeal the
income tax still continues with at least
an even chance to remain as it is. We
regret to see so many good republicans
and republican newspapers urging the
repeal. Their arguments for it would
hold good against any tax. A tax on
the incomes of the rich is no hardship
on either them or the people, and in ev-
cry respect is far more just than the
usual tax on real estate which is mort.
gagged up for three fourths its value and
which is paid by the holder of what is
practically but nominal deed.
