Our correspondent "Homo" is certain
ly furnishing to the readers Of the INTEL.
LIGENcRR an interesting and instructive
series Of articles on the various phases Of
Darwinism. These articles are not writ.
Ten of hand, al. q moments notice, but are
gotten up with research and care, and no
doubt cost tho writer a great deal oI time
and patient labor. The concluding paper,
on that side Of the question, will
follow next week. After that We
expect to publish a series Of
papers on the other side Of the subject,
from the pen OF ian evolutionist," which
will no doubt be highly entertaining.
The subject itself Is Of unusual interest
to the reading community, and when
handled by scholarly pen among us 1t
acquires an additional local interest. We
feel a pride in these contributions, not
only because they are well gotten up, but
because they are evidence Of q high degree
Of literary ability in our midst.

THEY are disposed to joke our good
friend DR.. TODD over the river about his
little Speech at the Steel Works Cele-
bration at Martins Ferry a few days ago.
The Doctor said something about remem.
bering to have seen the noble Red man Of
the forest on the surrounding hills many
years ago, at which remarks the old set
tiers shook their heads and asked them
selves, as Nye did Truthful James, "can
such things be?' The Doctor explains
that he alluded merely to the passing Wis.
its Of the Red. men on their way from the
far West to Washington City, from time
to time years ago, when they were accus.
toned 10 stop for a night or day along
the National Road and camp on the hills.
This explanation sets the Doctor all right
before the old settlers as an orator and Q
historian. The only trouble with his audi
torsW as that theyhnterpreted his remarks
too literally and. made no allowance for
the play OF imagination demanded at .
Saturday afternoon celebration.

THERE are many persons who will re.
gret to hear Of the death Of Doctor Ed.
WARD Smith, Of West Liberty, formerly
of Brooke county, one Of the Oldest physi.
Clans in this part Of the country, who died
on Tuesday and was buried yesterday at
the old Tent Church, near Clinton, In this
county. Doctor SMITH was well known
in Brooke county, both as physician and
local politician. He represented that
county several sessions ,'years sgoIin the
Virginia Legislature at Richmond, and
also served term or two here in Wheel
ing as a member Of the West Virginia
Legislature. He was not man Of much
education but had great deal Of tact and
shrewdnesS, both as Q politician and
physician, and was successful in both pur.
suits. His memory, as also his mirthful.
ness, and his ability to tell q story
well, made him familiar to almost
every man, woman and child in Brooke
county. He was one Of the old time sort
Of public men, and was accustomed to
canvass the county on horseback, from
farm to farm, in his mixed character Of
physician and politician, and thus obtain.
ed, when q candidate before the people
personal support from men of all parties.
He lived to good old age, being about
eighty, II We are correct in our impression,
at the time Of his death. He was q good
hearted, genial old man, who made few
enemies, and for whom very many people
will have kindly word now that he Is
gone.

REPORT or COMMITTEE

Your committee to whom was referred res
olutou No. %. A., have had the same under
consideration, and beg leave to report: That
chapter l39, private and Iocal laws IF 1872
is clear and explicit in its provisions and
seems to have been carefully drawn to pro
vide for the object in view.
That said chapter l3a unmistakabIv pro-
hibits the Northern Pacific Railroad Compa-
ny from constructing. maintaining on operat-
ing any railroad in Wisconsin unliI after SAID
company shall have constructed a road there
in described from North Pacific Junction in
Minnesota, TO Bay of Superior in Wisconsin.
That the route by way Of Ricc's Point, i'm
Minnesota, and Conuer's Point, in Wiscon-
sin, crossing the St. Louis river between
those points, IS not the route prescribed by
said chapter 50 and that the said \. 2. r.
K Co. has not constructed any road upon
the route prescribed by that said chapter 50.
That said chapter l5q, having especial
reference to the n r. G. r. Co. under a
well known rule Of construction of laws, its
provisions must pacyal over the provisions
Of any law not relating particularly TO that
railroad company.
That said chapter l39 is doubtless a law Of
the state. cntitled 10 respect and obedience
until abrogated by repeal or judicial decision,
and that i has neither been repealed or pro
nounced unauthorized.
Your committee are, therefore, of opinion.
that ally agreement compromise. settlement
or adjustment by which the Northern Pacific
Railroad Company Is permitted or required
to construct its road or branch thereof, or
any railroad, into the state of Wisconsin, by
way Of Rjce's Point, in Minnesota, and Con
ner's Point, in Wisconsin, before said compa-
ny constructed its road from North Pacific
Junction, in Minnesota, to the Bay Of Supe-
rioT, i'll Wisconsin, by the route established
in said chapter l39, is withou; authority of
law and contrary TO the express provisions
Of said chapter I3q.
Your committee further respect tfuilv report
that chapter l2O general laws of 1872, con-
sjsts of preamble and enaGiments, and that
such preamble and enactments are so inti
mately connected that they must be coustru-
Cd as a consistent unity.
That said preamble IS a solemn adiudica-
tion by the legislature that the canal through
Mimi Point has produced and will continue
TO result in serious injury to the harbor OF
Superior and TO the entry to the same =
by divertiug the current of the 81. Louis riv-
er from lis natural outlet and also. that the
dyke constructed across the bay of Superior
for any purpose, is an unlawful
obstruction of the nayigable waters of said
bay, x : and is sn0versive Of the
rights and privileges Of the people OF this
state.
Your committee is of opinion that such a
solemn declaration of the law making power
reoited by way of preamble. IS euuied tC
equal respect with the eHactments Of the leg
