ed here to enjoy our equal and just rule; but those coming bent on theft and murder, must expect to meet punishment mild or severe according to circumstances. The sympathy and walls of foreigners for the misfortunes of their bad friends here, will neither undo what has been done nor nit igate what -~ill be done. If men from Mexico are here to commit crimes, or to help criminals, we tell all such their room Is better than their com pany, and the quicker they get away the better for all concerned. Men who seek protection of our laws that they may prosper better, had better not be too friendly to well-known desperadoes and outlaws. The sooner all such get out of this country, the better for all honest ones in it--Mex- ican as we'll as American.

COURTS IN TERRITORIES.

Decisions of the Supreme Court of the United States are to the effect that the District Courts in the Territories are United States Courts in all cases, and that Legislative assemblies can- not regulate them and prescribe modes of procedure at variance with the practice of United States District Courts. Accepting as we must that decisions of the United States Supreme Court are law notwithstanding the language of local or national statutes, we find the usual practice of Courts in Territories under local statutes, has been irregular and without legal sanction.
 To remedy this, Hon. W. H. Clagett of Montana has introduced bill into Congress. The gist of it is in these words:
 That the supreme and district courts of the several Territories are hereby declared territorial courts while ex- ercising their jurisdiction in cases arising or properly cognizable under the laws of said Territories.
 In speech in support of the bill, MT. Clagett presents the matter with his accustomed clearness and cogency. If Congress refuses to pass his bill, goodbye for the present at least to all Territorial courts as such, and here after our Courts will be attended in all respects by U. $. Marshals as has been done by Sheriffs, and Uncle Sam should pay all expenses instead of the several counties, even to the keeping of prisoners.
 We will carefully note develop ments on this matter. It is just pos sible from all the evidence now at our service, that a bill presented by Con- gressman Voorhees,, induced by the Utah troubles, may settle this busi- ness. His bill "provides complete "system for summoning and impanel- "ing juries by the U. s. Marshal "under the direction of the U. $. "Circuit Court, and for the payment of expenses attending trials for " criminal offenses in such Court out "of the fines and forfeitures col elected"
 This may only apply to Utah, or U. s. Courts as now held in the Ter ritories, but the telegraphic reference to 1t does not say so.

times appointed whom, although the Senate
confirmed the best public opinion did not
approve and some officers remained when
the same opinion thought that they should
have been removed. But the good sense
OF the country saw that if there were evil
traditional systems which could not be
broken by word or an act, and that if
sometimes the President had been i'll ad-
vised, yet that his Administration must
be Judged as whole, and could not be
condemned because of some doubtful or
notorious officers. 1t knew also that
lie travels a league while truth is putting
on its boots, and that while it is always
difficult to know the exact facts when
sides are hotly taken, yet that whatever
the abuses of the civil service, it was not
only steadily improving, but that Its sys-
tematic improvement had never received
from any Administration such careful con-
sideration as from that of General Grant
The result of this close observation of
the Administration is apparent in the
New Hampshire election. The failure of
the prolonged and bitter attack upon it is
equally plain. The President and the
Administration were the Republican plat
form, and the result is q vote of conf
dence. 1t shows that the people do not
believe that parties should be dissolved,
and the higher welfare of the country
abandoned to a scrub-race of new organ
izations. 1t shows profound conviction
that the defeat of the Republican party,
under whatever fair name and fine prom
Use and by whatever coalition that defeat
should be secured, would be peril not
to be tolerated. 1t shows, in fine, that in
the judgment of the people of New
Hampshire, who may be fairly taken as
the representative of the great mass of
intelligent and loyal American citizens,
the President and his Administration
have been tried in the balance and not
found wanting.-Hdrper's Weekly.

Save Your Dimes.

We say to all the children save your
dimes. Don't eat them. Many children
spend all their dimes for candy or some
thing of the sort, and then eat the candy.
1t amounts to about the same thlng as
eating the dimes. Better save them I'LL
enough is gained to buy g9oa OooS, ,ii 1nen
YOUR mind. which is equivalent to putting
the dimes into your mind where they will
always stay. 4 dollars worth of knowl-
edge well stored up is something that will
never leave one and will always be of
service.
Again, save your dimes till you have
enough to invest in some piece of proper
ty, pig, sheep, a calf, fruit-tree, or
something of the kind. Such property
could easily be made to increase in value,
so that in few years snug little prop
erty would be acquired. So save your
dimes and use them well.

So it was not lore, but debt that had ag-
onized him sol Thee may know l was
only too glad to forgive the coward what
he owed. l heard nothing more about
lacerated affections; and the cringing fel-
low went away very well pleased. Then
nv heart danced for JOY. The world
might say what it pleased. / was free,
and even my father was heartily glad of
the turn things had taken.
Thus ends the first chapter of my
preachments; and if thee doesn't see the
moral it is this:
"a bad promise is better broken than
kept"
The second chapter of my story is very
short; l mean that part of it which will
bear the telling.
Friend Edward came home from the
army. was very shy about letting him
see how glad / was, for l had no more
right to any emotions now than l had
ent reason.
"Why, Eve, no welcome for mes"
Everybody can't be pleased as Mir
lam, / suppose" said 1; and / wished
next minute l could bite my tongue out
for its foolishness 4!
"Thee doesn't mean to say thee believes
that silly gossip ?" said Friend Edward,
reproachfully, looking as bright, never
theless, as June sunbeam.
why, why, thee knows it's no con-
Germ of mine," stammered /, like an
idiot
Then there was more said on both
sides.
By-and-by ventured to look up, and
said 1:
"Ah, Friend Edward, if thee only
loves me so much as that, l think the
least l can do is to-to-be true to N.Y.
self"
That remark of mine was rather am
biguous; but it appeared to give entire
satisfaction it showed Friend Edward
that remembered and respected his ad-
vice.
Mr.. Douglass" said he to my father,
"can you consent to give your daughter
to one of the worlds people ?"
Gas to that" replied my father, be-
nignly, " if the girl ssW marry out of
meeting, I'd as soon give her to thee as to
any one l know"
Which was saying good deal for faith
er.
Cousin Sophia did not seem at first al
together pleased; but after she decided to
marry the Reverend Seth Witham, of
Marlboro, her views of my prospects
underwent a change.
Adam and Miriam have gone to house
keeping across the river, like pair of
turtle doves.
Edward and were welded three years
ago come next month; and it is a true
marriage; so / suppose thee will say, that
is all thee cares to hear about it.
