set good example in finding indict-
ments against many Of the sugar and

THE PittsJorg Post makes this point
There was not a vote against the con-
frmation Of Chief Justice Waite.
Sumner was present but declined to
vote. His reason therefor is not given.
1t is easy to be Seen that Waite's Sc
lection is far from satisfactory to the
Radical wing Of the Republican party.
The fact that his only active participa-
ton IN political life has been in con-
nection with the Democracy, is not
assuring to the wild schemes Of Radi-
caIism."

Artistic Shooting In Kentucky.

A correspondent of the Courier Jour
nal thus gloats over the dexterity of the
young man who killed the desperate,
Witherspoon: aioa 81
LAS evidence of what dead shots both
Portwood and Witherspoon we're, it is
stated that short time before the death
of DR. Chambers. while they we're still
good friends, they went out one day to
practice with their pistol at mark. The
target was nail-head in plank fence, at
a distance of twenty PAGES. After firing
anumber of rounds at the word that is
without taking aim.it was found that each
of them could drive the nail-head three
times out of five Portwood's pistol was
large sized Smith & Wesson; Wither
spoons navy six and it was with these
that they armed in the deadly encounter
of Tuesday evening, only Witherspoon
had on two navies, neither Of which did
his too quick antagonist give him time to
use. By the by, it is said that Portwood
never took down his pistol to cock it after
he commenced firing, but cooked it with
his thumb, and fired as rapidly as-though
it had Been a self cocker People out
side, across the street, say that the. six
shots were fired in asquick succession as
the strokes of cheap Yankee CLOCK"

An Enterprislns Settler In n Nebras.

The Lowell { (Nebraska) Register prints
the record of an enterprising settler :
Mr.. NJ S. Budlong settled on the edge
of Franklin County, Nebrasks, bordering
on the edge of Kearney County.in March.
1872. When he arrived on his hom mestead
with his two sons, he had two spans of
horses, but only Sll in money At the
beginning OF 1874 he had 100 acres OF
land under cultivation; an orchard con-
tanning 500 young apple trees, 100 pear
trees and 100 cherry trees, and vineyard
of 500 grape vines, Mr., Budlong is now
about to plant 200 apple trees, 200 peach
trees, and 500 additional grape vines,-
The homestead is in Southern Nebraska,
and on the level prairie land no man who
has the spirit of Mr, Budlong need fear
to settle where there are no trees to
shade his roof tree from the sun, II he
plants as Mr., Budlong has done, in five
years his orchard will be coming into
bearing; and if he has windbreak of
cottonwood, he will have ample fuel for
his stoves,
Certainly, 81 in cash is not adequate
i for the needs Of the ordinary settler,
though there are numerous instances in
Nebraska of men starting in this way
upon nothing, as it were, and in few
years working themselves into positions
of comfort such men are brave and
enterprisirg; but q capital of $500, at
least, is good thing upon which to
start, The larger the capital-given
skill, enterprise, courage and industry,
without which money is of little moment
aud the quicker. and the greater tue
gain. There is abundant room aud am.
pie scope in Nebraska for men like Mr.,
| BudIonu. "f

Salt Water for the Eyes.

Many persons are sufferit 6 pain from
weakness of the eyes. This sometimes
proceeds from local inflammation and
sometimes from other causes. Several
persons who have been thus afflicted in
form us that they have derived almost
immediate and in some cases permanent
relief from the application of salt water
as bath, and where the pain has been
aggravated, from compress saturated
with salt water laid on the eyes, and re.
newed at frequent intervals. Opening
the eyes and submerging them in clean
salt water has been found beneficial to
those whose eyesight begins to fail.
