gs1% The provisions Of the soldiers home
stead LII, recently enacted by Congress, are
as follows: Every officer, soldier, sailor or
marine who served in the war for period
exceeding ninety days. may in settling upon
the public lands, under the homestead laws.
count the period of his service as part of
OF the five years residence required to obtain
a patent to one hundred and sixty acres
The actual residence on the land must be at
least one year. Six months are allowed after
the location of the land before the residence
upon It must commence Persons discharged
for wounds or disability may have their whole
period OF enlistment counted. In case of the
death Of person who would be entitled to
the privileges Of the act, his widow, if
unmarried, or minor children, if the widow
be married or dead, are entitled to its bene-
fits. Any person to whom the bill gives the
right to acquire land may have the same
entered, and the required settlement and
residence made by an agent. This is the
most important feature of the bill, for a
comparatively small number of soldiers will
themselves become homestead settlers. The
right tostransfer their privileges to an agent
will doubtless be of considerable advantage to
them.
1t is supposed that this bill will be largely
instrumental in providing homes in the West
for our soldiers. 1t is another evidence of
she intention of the present Administration
to deal justly and literally with those who
bore the brunt of the battle The bill has
received the signature of the President and

suffered for many years from Chronic Diarrhna

severe attack, and by the advice of some of my

EFousekeepers, and those about COM


mencing House Keeping, should bear in
mind that Morris Smiley is still on hand to
meet all their wants in the furniture line
While the other Furniture rooms are engi-
neered by men of skill Morris, who
is practical workman, served regular APP
premiership at Cabinet making, and has
been in the business, at the same old stand
for some twenty years, superintends his own
work. His stock embraces every variety of
furniture, from the most highly finished
down to the more plain work required for
common uses. His rooms are well worth a
visit, and his wares are made of first class
quality, thoroughly seasoned wood, by the
best workmen procurable and all under his
immediate supervision. Morris has all ar
rangcmcnts completed to ill orders for city
work with dispatch, but he prefers to sell
what he knows to be good before the paint is
on. Our advice to all is-call on Morris
Smiley before deciding where to purchase
either complete outfit or single piece OF
Furniture.

been very rough and heavy, the indications
are that we will have an open spring. Good
for all business men. The cheerful faces of
our city friends will soon be seen in our midst,
improvements are going on in different sec
tons OF our county, and, We trust, we shall
not only have an open spring, but busy
one.

Ee5~ In THE PERSISTENT and well-directed
attempts to build up really efficient iron
clad navy, Great Britain has Just placed upon
the water a mailed vessel of war built after
our own monitor pattern, but with MANY
Improvements, some of which the original
inventor of this class of offensive and de-
fensive ships might adopt with profit The
Thaaocrer Is the name of the new craft. She
carries the very heavy armament of four
thirty-five inch guns The hull rises four feet
and half above the water-lnc, and her
tuTets are shielded from shot and waves by
powerful breastworks. In action or in a
heavy sea this improved monitor possesses
many obvious advantages over her American
originals.

E3arflssREa,s Show is so

BarnuRa's show is so big that he
would require 1000 men and horses to cart it
through the country. He is required to en-
ploy 60 freight and FIVE passenger cars to
transport 1t from place to place, and is, there
fore, compelled to confne his Exhibition to
principal towns on the main lines of Railroad.
His daily expenses will exceed $1,000. He
will not be able to, as he desired, to visit
Stroudsburg, but will exhibit at Easton, on
the 10Th, and at Scranton, on the 2lst of
May. As he will ship the entire Exhibition
to Europe, in November next it would be
worth while, in view of the fact that the op-
portunity to visit ike show will never again
occur, to go to one Of the places named to
see it. No doubt excursion trains could be
arranged so as greatly to lesson the cost
In addition to the grand pageant, which
takes place before 9 o'clock A. NJ, and is
gratis, there will be three exhibitions each
day, commencing at 10 clock A. NJ, and at
2 and O'Clock p. N.

Re THE gratifying announcement is made
that the public debt has been reduced in the
month of March fifteen million .to,u hundred
thousand dollars. Such solid thumps COM

prospects Of the anti-administration men.
What better evidence is wanting of the pros
penty OF our great country, and of the faith

servants? Could Trumbull or Greeley or
Sumner administer the affairs Of the nation
