The Madison Journal states that it Is un-
derstood that these lands will not be re-
stored to market at present. but that another
opportunity will be given the State to ask
from Congress a renewal Of the grant, to
which she is entitled by every considera-
ton ofjustice.
According to the journal The Commits
sioner of the General Land Office wrote on
the llth ult. to Mr. Rusk, our Member Of
Congress, saying that no homestead can be
recognized upon the lands withdrawn 1or
the st. Croix and Superior railroad, until
they are formally restored to the public do
main and all who may settle on such lands
prior to such forma. restoration (of which
due notice will be given when action is
taken by the Land Office, with a view to
remove timber therefrom, or other purposes,
are trespassers, and upon satisfactory proof,
will be treated rs such.
This action of the Commissioner is not
only eminently just, but affords a most graf
flying proof thai an irresistible moncyed
antocracy does not, as yet, control al de-
partments of the government. Itis sUscep-
tible of proof before the country, that the
State of Wisconsin has been thus far sys-
tematically swindled out Of the use and
benefit of this grant in her own domain, for
the sake, and in the interest Of, landsharks
who have already received from Congress n
gift of more land than IS contained in all
Wisconsin, and Penins,ilar Michigan com
bined. Yet such arch demagogues As We
could name, were allowed in Congress
last winter, to countenance, and maintain
this fraud under the plea Of opposition 70
land grants Let the knaves, and their
employers be unmasked, and shown up in
time, this year. The battle fer this just
grant can be foaght and won before hand,
and the floor Of Congress be made too hot
to hold its uuscrupuIous enemies next winter.

In old times the mail train was the slow
train 1t ran twenty miles an hour, and
stopped at all stations, while the fast pas
senger express made its seventy miles every
two hours, and stopped but twice, or thrice,
in a state. Woe to the wight who then
took the mail train for long trip to the
sea board. Passengers by the express
would distance him half day, or more.
But things have changed. Lucky the man
now, that can frank himself a passenger by
the great, new, through mail train between
Chicago and New York city. The Post
Office Department that has been qual ter
of century behind the age, has ~ walked
up, and will hereafter run a special light

The platform Of the Indiana Repub-
Iicans is longer than the moral law,
comprising eighteen resolutions, all Of
which will bear inspection. We give
the last one.
That the administration of General
Grant has been consistent with the
principles Of the Republican party,
and eminently just, wise, and hu-
name, and such as fulfills his pledges,
and deserves our cordial support.
And, therefore, we instruct our dele
gates to the National Convention to
vote for the denomination Of Grant
and Colfax as our candidates for Pres
ident and Vice President.
The ticket is as follows:
Governor, Gen. Thomas N. Browne,
Of Randolph; Lieutenant Governor,
Hon. Leonidas Sexton, Of Bush; Con-
gresham at Large, Hon. Godlove s.
Orth, Of Tippeeanoe; Secretary of
State, W. w. Curry, OfVigo; Auditor
Of State, A. Wildman, of Howard /;
Treasurer Of State, John p. Glover, Of
Lawrence; Reporter of Supreme
Court, Col. James B. Black, Of Marion;
Clerk Of Supreme Court, Charles
Schal, of Clark; Superintendent of
Public Instruction, B. W. Smith, Of
Marion Attorney General, John C.
Denny, Of Knox.
Tupper-Martin F-has issued his
fourth series Of 'Proverbisl PhilOso-
phy,D and proposes to close out that
line Of business. We are happy that
it is so, but are sad that he thinks his
words are chunks Of Wisdom, for he
says that he
sasSoyz will resume for the last time, his first
old style Of proverbs
And then forever lay aside the harp Of ST.
rach's son."

The Commissioner Of Internal Rev
enue, in Especial number ILL.," rules
that distillers can not, in their capaci-
ty Of distillers, lawfully mix their
spirits with burnt sugar or other color
ing matter upon their distillery prem
ises, or anywhere else, not even as du-
ly authorized rectiiers, upon their dis
tiIlery premises; "and whoever COM
mits these violations of the law, OF
either of them, as the case may be,
renders himself liable to the penalties
prescribed therefor. Accordingly,
assessors, collectors, and other inter
nal revenue officers are hereby in
structed that the practice complained
of must be discontinued at once; and
any spirits found upon the market
bearing evidence Of having been so
mixed, will be seized, and, upon sat
isfactory proof thereof, forfeited.n
Settlers under the Homestead Law
can acquire title without occupying
lands five years by paying for them.
College scrip has been made reeeiva-
BILE in payment for commuted home
steads, the same in all respects as
military land warrants. Such is the
decision Of the Secretary Of the Inter
| iOr.

A horrid massacre recently oecurree
at Tandil, q village in the Argentin-
Confederation, through the fanatid
cism Of man named Solares, claim
ing to be q prophet Of divine origin.
With fifty armed and mounted fol-
lowers he entered Tandil, declaring
death to Masons, the constituted au-
thorities, and liberation to convicts.
The prison in Tandil was broken
open, and its one inmate set free. In
public square the band-met an Ital-
ian, whomsthey instantly killed. In
the outskirts they encountered elev-
en- carts. They killed eight drivers
and wounded three. Next entering
the store of Vinuz Linez, they slaugh-
tered him and a laborer. They then
went to the store of a William
Thompson, where they murdered a
servant and an Englishman, recent
ly married, shouting constantly /:
"Death to Masons; death to all for
eigners Kill and sack p' At $50 A.
M. they reached the store of q Jean
Sheppard, a man greatly respected
by his neighbOrs. There they butch
cred eighteen persons, namely, the
owner, wife, four children, two serv.
ants and the remainder laborars =,
committing indignities to the bodies
too horrible to mention.
Meantime the inhabitants of Tan
dl mustered for pursuit, at 4P. NJ.
overlook the assassins at Chapar,
where they were eating supper, and,
changing horses, the murderers took
flight, but were pursued with such
fury that sixteen were killed and
twenty-four captured. Among the
prisoners was the so-styled man-god
Solares, who was shot to death that
night through holes made in the pris-
on walls. Before making this bloody
slaughter Solares had created great
excitement among superstitious ma.
tives, an average Of two hundred
day coming to consult him and offer
ing rich gifts.
