" HISTORY OF THE GRANGE MOVEMENT; or, the
Farmers War against Monopolies'' Be-
gtUH and authentic account Of the Strug-
giles Of the american Farmers against the
ertortiORs Of the Railroad Companies, Nth
History Of the Rise and Progress Of the
Order Ct Patrons Of HusJandrg. Pub
lished By the National Publishing Co., of
Philadelphia.
The most remarkable and powerful movement
of the present day is, unquestionably, the War
which the Farmers of the United States are wag-
ing against the Monopolies of all kinds that
for Sc long been robbing the people and oppress-
ing the toiling portion of our community
The work begins with the causes which have
aroused the American people against the Mo-
nopolists, and treats of the railroad system of
the country, its growth, actual condition and
prospects. 1t then shows how this noble sys-
ten has been perverted to further the ends of
selfish capitalists and railroad directors, who
seek gain at the expense of the community; and
we are given terrible and thrilling account of
the crimes and frauds of the railroad corpora
tons Of to-day. The author yields a fearless
and vigorous pen, and points out the evils
which this selfish greed has entailed upon us.
He shows how the great corporations have been
able to control the whole country; how they
have robbed the nation, and corrupted our Con
gress, State Legislatures, and Courts Of Justice.
He gives us some startling facts about the Wild
Cat Railroads of the Country; the reckless gamb-
ling in stocks, aud the terrible financial con-
vulsion from the effects Of which VIC are still
suffering.
The book then takes up the cause of the farm
ers of the U. s., and lays before us a calm but
eloquent statement of their wrongs:
shows how the farmers are overcharged and
robbed of the just reward Of their labors. and
points out the causes of these evils. 1t explains
how the railroads impoverish the farmers, and
gives a substantial reason for the charge so Of
ten repeated, that high freights affect the value
of land as well as of its products.
A considerable portion of the work is devoted
to history of the Order of Patrons of Husban-
dry, and it contains an account Of its rise, pro-
gress, present condition and future prospects.
Each feature of the Order is fully explained,
and an amount Of information is given concern
ing this most wonderful organization that will !
amply satisfy the most curious.
1t is decidedly the most interesting and use ,
'ul volume Of the day, and as it comes at time |
when the whole country is suffering intensely !
rom the evils it denouuces, cannot fail to have |
! tremendous sale. 1t is an ably written work.
Ind bold and vigorous plea in behalf Of the
armers and all who are oppressed and robbed

Indian Affairs.

The condition of things in the North
west wears less of warlike look than q
week ago. Capt. Davis at Sidney, Neb.,
states that tqe chiefs of the cutoff band
Of Sioux Indians claim that no depreda.
lions have been committed by their young
men, aud that they have faithfully oh.
served their promises of friendship. Da.
Wis believes, however, that they could tell
all about the war party operating in that
vicinity if they chose. In his opinion,
the raiders are all Miuneconjons, and num-
Der not more than 80 warriors.
Special Indian Commissioner Tonner a
Prescott. Arizona territory, says Of the
Riovcrde Isdian reservation. that, from a
list of over 1900 Indians there in july
last, but $50 remain, the remainder hay.
ing died or fed to the mountains, prefer.
ring death by warfare to falling by disease.
He recommends that the Apache Yumas
and Apache Mohaves be moved to the
Colorado river reservation, and the Pontos
to the white mountain reservation. Gen.
Crook objects to the removal of the first
named, lest they should think they gained
the point they sought by gong on the
Colorado reservation in opposition to his
orders, last June.
The board Of Indian commissioners at
Washington are still unanimously of the
opinion that the peace policy is the thing
in the management Of the Irdians, and
claim that the most encouraging results
have followed from its adoption. They
see in the wilder tribes steady improve

the present policy will soon esult in Lring.

mission to all reasonable requirements of
the government. They say the telegraph
and newspaper reports in regard TO the
threatened difficulty with-the Sioux have
greatly exaggerated the facts, and that
official information leads TO the belief that,
BY proper management, the danger Of
general Sioux war will be averted.

NarrOW.gauge Railroads.

We have received from W. w. Neviu
Esq. of Philadelphia, statement Of tn
progress and success of Narrow-guag
Railroads 10 the United States and Do
minion of Canada, from which We condens
the following interesting and highly i'm
portant information.
There are now forty-one Narrow aug,
roads in actual operation, with l443t mile
of road completed and running, and 35-
miles more under construction, which il
graded aud ready for the iron. The Ell
tire length of the roads, when completed
will be 1850 miles. There are eighteen
other roads, with 929 miles actually un.
der construction and in forward state Of
completion with twenty-one others char.
tered, upon which more or less work has
been done.
These roads have been built and equip.
ped at less than two-thirds the cost of or
binary roads, and the saving in their op-
GRAFTON brings the net earnings up to full
fifty per cent. of the gross earnings.
These statistics, gathered with great
labor by Colonel NeviD, give detailed
statement of the names, location, cost,
progress. etc, OF each one of these roads,
but which are too extended for our col
umns.
20 There is one important consideration
which we may mention in this connection
which is, that the rousher the country
the greater the sdc1ng in the narrow over
the standard gauge and this for the SIM
pie reason that near y the whole saving
spoken of in the construction Of the
above mentioned roads, aside from the
iron, is to be found in the deep rock and
dirt excavations, the heavy fills, and also
in the sharp curves which are admissi-
bic.
Referring to the foregoing figures, un.
der the head of " No longer an expert
meut," the ST. Paul (Nlinnesota) Press
well says:
"With these highly encouraging re.
suits, it is surprising that those communi-
ties which are yet without railroad facil-
ties, and are striving to obtain them. do
not at once abandon all attempts to build
broad-guage roads where the narrow.
guage will do the business as we'll or bet
Ter, and endeavOr to enlist capitalists in
The construction of lines that will pay fair
profits over routes Oh which the other
Kind will lose money. The cost Of mar
'ow-gauge road need not be, in Minneso-
"a. over sl2500 per mile, fully equipped |
or business. The difference between this
um and the actual cost of road now IN
operation 10 the State is a very important
clement of new enterprise The decreas-
d cost of operating is an equally imror-
ant consideration.

The Siamese Twins.

The following interesting particulars
are condensed from a full report of the
proceedings Oftbe special meeting of the
Philadelphia College of Physicians. OF
Wednesday evening, at which the result:
of the autopsy on the todies of the Sia-
mese twins were given: The superstition
that the baud connecting the twins was
simply of a feshy nature has been decided
in the negative. 1t was found that per-
itoneal connection did exist that Is, a re-
Election or extension Of the peculiar men,
brane lining of the abdomen extended into
the band, though it was not continuous.
Sacs or pouches were formed by this ill.,
Election, possessing no communication bar
tween the two. The Intimate visceral Gen.
nectlon between the twins was shown by
the injecting fluid, which was passed into
the mesenteric vein of one and appeared
in the mesenteric vein of the other. The
liver of Chang occupied its normal posi-
tioD en- the right side of his body below
the diaphragm. The liver of Eng was on
his left side, next to Chang, his spleen
being abnormally situated % the right
side of his body. The same abnormal
condition exists in the case of the hearts
of the Siamese twins as of the livers, l. e.,
that the apiees Of the hearts approach each
other, the heart of one being normally Sit
uated in the left side. and that of the
other in the right side, but both were
perfected organs as regards circulation.
The two livers had evidently at one period
in the existence-possibly fptal-of the
twins been virtually one gland. but had
eventually become separated. This Is
shown BY the passage Of the injecting fluid
from the mesenteric vein of one to that
the other. The fact of common umbili-
cal cord between the twins is also settled,
the naval being situated in the middle of
the band. During fetal life, therefore,
the circulation was conducted to the twins
from the maternal system precisely as to
a single individual. These facts show that
a separation of the twins during life would
have resulted fatally to one or both of
them. The nervous intimacy through the
band was extremely slight, and the indi-
Of the two men so strongly
marked that it was not deemed advisable
to examine the brains. nothing further
than comparison of the weight of the two
being expected from such an operc tiou.
The extension Of the ensitorm cartilage or
breast. bone, which formed constituent
IF the attachment, was a mere flexible
ibro-cartiIaglnous substance in which
here was nothing like an appearance, of
10 elbow-joint. as has been reported.
