from school, and in passing Though lot OF

him and deVoured him bodily, saving his head
and shoulders. No one was near the scene Of
this most awful tradgedy, and consequently
no assistance could be given him.-Lerington

As explanatory of the recent diplomatic call
on President Grant to congratulate him on his
reelection, it can be stated that the ministers
from Spain and Belgium last week received
kilograms from their respective governments
instructing them so to act. This was the origin
of the arrangement among the foreign minis
ters now here to call in body at theExecutive
Mansion. Secretary Fish, at the time Of the
arrangement, was absent, and heard of it only
on his return to the city. What he did on that
occasion was at their own request, and there
fore the statements in the papers caused no
annoyance to him or the diplomats, in conse-
quence of the alleged disagreeable position in
which they had bean placed by the paying of
the courtesy of congratulation in advance ef
the declaration of the Electoral College.

The Railroad Election.

Early in the coming month, the
people of this township will be call
ed on to decide a question which has
a decided bearing upon their mater
ial welfare. There are none so pre-
iudiced but must admit that the
growth and prosperity of our city
and county, have been promoted by
the railroads that traverse it.
The city has not alone reaped the
benefit, but the country also has par
taken of the benefit. Lands have
increased in value, produce has in
creased in price-we mean not grain
alone, but every article that enters
into family consumption. Grain
SHOWS it less than anything else, be-
cause of its fluctuations. But those
articles which the farmers almost
gave away, before railroads made a
market for them, are now an impor-
tant source of revenue, because they
can be readily transferred to New
York or other markets, where the de-
mand at all times exceeds the sup
ply, and where large prices are OBJ
tanned. Eggs, butter, poultry are
especially now source of revenue,
and the farmer would scotf an offer
of dollar for a turkey which, before
those appliances were introduced he
would have gladly sold for fifty cents,
and that in any kind of dicker. So
of eggs; then six cents, now never
less than 10 to 25, and even higher.
And butter in the same ratio, with
each instead of dicker as pay. The
farmer should recoIect these facts
and when the time comes to vote
record his ballot in favor of the ex-
tension of a system which has bene-
fitted him so much.
The townsman is equally called
upon to remember the source of his
prosperity. He finds a city to-day
triple the size of what it was when
the railroad track was first laid
through here, with the city prosper
GUS and growing rapidly. Real es-
tate has increased in value, manu-
featuring has gone forw ard, and en-
ployment is furnished for all who de-
sire it, at renumerative prices.
These things are all directly trace
able to the increased facilities afford
ed by railroads for doing business,
and are arguments in favor of en-
couraging the building Of those
contemplated. They have given
life and business to the city and
country, and will continue to do so,
by opening up new avenues of trade
and travel, by giving us competing
advantages we do not now possess,
by still further encouraging our
manufacturing interests, and by en-
abling US to extend our borders.
The election to which you are in
vited is therefore one which effects
your vital interests, and no false
ideas of economy, no carpings of
prejudice, or no animosity of feeling
should be permitted to stand between
you and your material interests.
The railroad, ''yes,'' should be a un-
animous vote-at least there should
be no hestancy in according the
two-thirds vote required.

in the Fourth Illinois Congressional
District, and no one but himself will
regret it. For years he has been
honored by the Republican party,
and at the nominating Convention
be was a candidate, but was not
chosen. Thereupon he discovered
that the Republican party was "cor-
rupt," and he plotted for and secur-
ed the Democratic-Liberal nomina-
ton under the belief he could carry
enough of his old friends with him
to return him to Congress. He has
been soundly beaten and the result
shows that he no longer exercises
any influence.

quite large enough for all practical

do about them

The taxpayers are not very boisterous
about the bills which passed the Legisla-
ture reducing salaries, but they are keep
ing up vast deal of very earnest think
ing. They want to know what is going
to be done aboutit? The acting Cover
nor, instead of signing the bills immedi-
ately after their passage, as he ought to
have done, and would have done if he
had had as much concern in behalf Of the
over-burdened taxpayers as about the
office holders ring, feigned a reason for
the postponement, that the public inter-
terest would suffer if the reform was car
ried into practice before the Spring terms
of the courts were over, and pledged that
they would then be signed. But Spring
has passed-and Summer is fading into
Autumn, andyet the public heart has not
been gladdened by tbs redemption of the
Executive promise.
We are not presumptious in asking for
the people whatare his Accidencys present
inclination on the subject of these reform
bills The tax-gatherers will soon com
mence their inevitable rounds, and the
question naturally springs up.
