of the rules of etiquette and good breeding, and
are distinguished only for their insolence and
boorishness. Some when they would be anus

where they would be shocked to meet mother,
wife or sister, and laugh at. the profane orgies
which would make better humanity weep for
its fellowkind. The well conducted circus has

LANDS IN THE WEsT-The Northern Pacific
Railroad Company have now completed sniff
cient track to entitle it to nearly five million
acres of the lands granted to it by Congress.
Some three million acres of these lands in the
thriving State of Minnesota the company now
places on the market They are to be sold for
settlement and cultivation, and we under
stand that applications are already filled by &C
tual settlers for nearly two hundred thousand
acres at prices which, while liberal to, the pur-
chaser, prove the company's land subsidy to be
quite as valuable as has been claimed for it,
As these fertile acres, which shrewd farmers
and experienced frontiersmen promptly buy at
fair prices, are pledged for the redemption of
the first mortgage bonds of the company, in
addition to the road and its traffic, and solid
character of these securities could hardly have
better llustration.-Phila Telegraph. IA.

PoLITICAL.-The Democratic State Commit
tee held meeting at the Preble House last eve
ming. The session was harmonious, because
the principal business was to devise some meas
nres to "beat Grant" and the hard-shclls of
the party were willing to sacrifice all their per-
sonal feelings and swallow Greeley if such a
course would give the least increase of hope.
The unctious Butler (James H. presided, and
by his calm, persuasive manner smoothed down

party. And so the incongruous elements were

MILWAUKEE, Mich, May PA special from
Houghton, Mich, says seven prisoners were ar
rested Saturday night and lodged in Jail While
arrests were being made the miners gave three
groans for the sheriff and officers of the.mne
and three cheers for the soldiers. No resistance
was made for those arrested. Bail in 5000
was offered for the release of the prisoners but
was not accepted. 1t is thought by Wednesday
that the Calumet and Heela mines will be at
work again. Mr.. Agassz, President of these
mines arrived to-day and will either start the
miners at work or eject them from their houses
at once, and should the latter be the case it is
hard to say what will be the case with the 9TH
er miners, as all those now at work are waiting
the issue of the Calumet and Hecla strike The
strikers resumed work with the understanding
that they were to receive whatever was agreed
upon by the Calumet and Hecla mines. The
operator at Calumet reports everything quiet
there except some few soldiers and Irishmen
who were slightly under the influence of liquor.
