NO MORE LAND GRANTS.

We have received to-day an-able lecture
by E. I. Peters, recently delivered before
the Preemptors' Union, at Washington.
This address is crowded with important
facts and arguments, showing the universal
importance of the land limitation to the
laboring mon of the country. We have
only space now for the closing portion of
the lecture, which we commend to the
thoughtful consideration of our laboring
men, and to all true patriots and phllan-
throplsts
1t is time for us TO revise our ideas upon this
question of the disposal OF the public domain and
accommodate them TO our altered clreums tances
There will soon be far less occasion TO be anx-
ious about settlers for our land than about land
for our settlers. We must begin 10 understand
that when a settler takes a homestead IN our
pua c territory, it is he who is on beneficiary
an not we who are the recipients OF favor AZ
his hands. Every day the competition tor these
lands is increasing and rendering the constantly
DIM .nishiug remainder more valuable. 1t is be-
cause capital perceiyes this that II now STANDS

the public domain at a single sulp IL Is Time
now for the country to speak out and defeat the
AIMS of the monoposts. Every county and

we should understand that our Wild lands are
not nuisance to be abated in the shortest possi-
Bile time. The wilderness is the poor mans

tai which would now persuade him IT Is WORTH
less, and kindly take IL from him in tracts en-
bracing millions OF acres. Let then

thousands only and who possess the power 70

let them resolve Ia keep these Western lands,
in which even the poorest among them Is n Joint

ALEXIS AT A FA1R.-In Philadelphia,

ALEXIS AT A FAIR.--In Philadelphia,
on Thursday, the Grand Duke Alexis
visited the fair in aid of the aged and infirm
of the Methodist Episcopal church, where
he was presented on behalf of the ladies'
with an afghan. A local account says !:
"He made tour of the hall in company
with his treasurer, Councillor Machin,
hating at most of the tables, and making
numerous purchases of toys, pin-cushions,
pictures, &c. At one table he paid ten dol
lars for miniature hat, valued at fifty
cents at another, twenty dollars for a
fifty cent pin-cushion, etc., leaving in the
aggregate considerable SUN OF money for
the benefit oft Home. After arriving at
the Continental he had his purchases all
enclosed in morocco satchel, which he
had also purchased at the fair, and inquired
for little Miss Phillips, five years old, to
whom he presented the entire lot of
souvenirs. lie had noticed the child in the
hotel, and had made quite favorite of
her during his entire stay"

THE Mississippi Pilot, in speaking of
Frank Blair's denunciation of carpet-bag-
gers, says:
"Why, the fellow carpet-bagged himself
down here in 1865, and planted cotton with
a man by the name of Alexander on the
Marshall Place. little below Milliken's
Bend, on the Louisiana side of the Missis-
sippi river; and, what is more. he cared so
little for his financial credit, or his standing
as man, that he left the place at the end
of the year without even paying oil his
hands, and they have not been paid, to the
best of our knowledge and belief, up to
this day. 1t is well understood that he
sank a large sum of money, which he prob
ably still owes somebody for, but whether
he does or not, it is certain that he left the
country without paying his hands. What
he may owe to merchants for supplies, or
to banks for money, we know nothing
about, aud say nothing about, but what he
owes to the negroes who did his work We
do know something about, for we get the
information from gentleman living in this
neighborhood now, but who was perfectly
familiar with Blair's transactions In 1862"

THE FATAL DRUG.

DEATH OF A WELL KNOWN B0oKKEEP-
Err FROM AN OVERDOSE OF MORPHINE.
Last Wednesday morning Mr.. Henry
Weisiger, bookkeeper for Brooks, Medley
& Co., Front street merchants, complained
of feeling unwell, and did not go to his
work. He stated that he was suffering
from neuralgia, and during the day took
several small doses of morphine. The OPT
ate apparently did not have the desired eli
feet, as about o'clock he went to N.
Barradalls's drug store, on Adams street,
asked for four morphine powders Of half
grain each. They We're prepared and hand
ed him, after which he returned home to
Mr.. d. X. Pullen's, few doors distant.
AS soon as he reached his room he took
one of the powders, and not being relieved
by it took the other three in short time
after, when he undressed and went to bed.
Some Of Mr.. Pullen's family being in the
adjoining room and hearing his unusually
heavy and labored breathing, entered the
room for the purpose of seeing if be was
worse, it being known that he bad been
complaining during the day. He was
found lying in an insensble condition, and
all efforts to arouse him were uaavailing.
DR.. A. X. Taylor was Immediately sum-
moned, and upon his arrival at once admin
istered the usual remedies. The deadly
opiate had thoroughly permeatcd his sys-
| tom, however, and i'll few hours he was
dead. From the time that he was first dis
covered he exhibited no signs Of conscious
ness of surrounding events.
| Mr.. Weisiger was native OF Virginia,
and man about IS years Of age. He was
| q married man: his wife and two infant
children had only last Monday started for
his former home in Richmond. An ac-
colnplished, courtly gentleman, he was
liked and respected by all, and his untirne-
| ly death will be universally regretted. His
remains will be forwarded to Richmond
next Saturday, and will be escorted to the
depot by the Masons, Of which fraternity
he was an honored member. r.
