A Gift Enterprise SWindle.

A writer to the Mankato Union says that
the drawing Of the Mankato Gift Enterprise,
which was to have taken place on the 22d
OF February, and which had been extensive
ly advertised, and editorially noticed by
the papers, and vouched for by prominent
business men Of the city, did not come off
at that time, nor has there been any notice
of postponement. On behalf of many ticket
holders he desires somebody to rise and ex-
plain. In reply the Union says it has
neither advertised, or endorsed this con-
Germ, and has all along had private opin-
ion to the effect that this thing was a swim
die, or thereabouts. 1t notices that the
day set for drawing, Feb. 22d, was Sunday.
1t knows that Mr.. Sayler, the manager of
the affair, receives large numbers of letters
containing money, which he deposits in the
aforesaid Sayler's breeches pockets. He
does not 60 to the trouble Of having COM
mittee to take charge of the funds, feeling
perfectly competent to attend to that thing
himself. The Union advises the ticket
lbolders to prosecute the gentle Sayler,
President, Secretary, Treasurer, and Gen.
er.l Manager of the Mankato Gift Enter
prise Swindle, for obtaining money upon
false pretenses, and calls upon citizens who
have endorsed the concern to make a public
disclaimer.
How men do love to be humbugged and
swindled. The demand for humbugs.
knaves, and swindlers is greater than the
demand for bread. If the demand be great
shall we wonder that The supply is equal to
it? There seems to be a perfect mania on
the part Of the people to be humbugged.
For our part we should be glad if every
ticket holder in the above mentioned con-
cern loses his money. Men will not learn
by experience unless they have to pay for
it, and the sooner they buy little common
sense the better. Newspapers may expose
these rascalities and swindles week after
week, and year after year, and the people
pay no attention to it whatever, until they
get bitten themselves. 1t seems that they
would thousand times rather pay the
thieves and scoundrels for knowledge and
common sense than they would pay the ed
itors.
Every Gift or Lottery Enterprise is to a
greater or lesser extent fraud, both on
the part Of managers, and those who buy
tickets. 1t is an attempt on the part Of
each to get value without paying an equivo-
lent. The ticket holder rarely succeeds.
but the managers invariably succeed. Will
our people ever know enough to let these
things alone?

The Tichborno Claimant Convicted OF
Perjury. -.

The famous Tichborne claimant was con-
victed of perjury BY London jury, on
Feb. 28th, after = trial which lasted l80
days. and was sentenced to fourteen years
penal servitude. This is perhaps the most
remarkable case that ever came into the
courts. The claimant professed to be Sir
Roger Tichborne, who long since left his
native country and has not been heard from
for near twenty years, and claimed the es.
tates to which Sir Roger was heir. He
brought suit for the recovery Of these large
estates, but those in possession denied that
the claimant was actually Sir Roger, but
alleged that he was one Arthur Orton, who
had been in the employ Of the Tichborne
family, and was thus familiar with all the
affairs of the family. Notwithstanding
the mother Of Sir Roger accepted and de-
clared the claimant to be her son, and ma
ny influential persons including member of
Parliament, took his side, he was neverthe-
less beaten in the suit. Charges for per-
jury were then preferred against him.
Hundreds of witnesses have been sworn
and testified in this case. Witnesses have
been brought from all parts of the world.
Scores Of them. including young lady he
used to gallant, have sworn positively that
the claimant is Arthur Orton, and scores of
others have as positively testified that he is
the veritable long lost Tichborne. This tri-
al has caused more commotion and cost
more money than any trial that has pre-
ceded it. The general opinion is that the
verdict is correct, and that the pretended
heir is none other than Orton, although the
case is not without reasonable doubts, and
we are therefore little astonished that
the jury found him guilty but they have
probably been guided to this conclusion by
the evidence, all Of which we have not read
Another such remarkable case is not like
ly to occur during the lifetime of any per-
son now living
LAST week .. Eames L. Co., bought
two calves, raised by Daniel Purdy Of
Goodhue County, eight and one-half
months old, one of which weighed, when
dressed, 395 pounds and the other $50
pounds. The price paid for both was $62
They were probably the finest calves ever
brought to this market. And, speaking
about calves, reminds us that we would like
to know the man who can beat the above.
He is entitled to cigar from the Office of

EDITORIAL NOTES.

Imitation of the CURRENCY is the lat
est name for counterfeiting. We might
here say that as yet there is no bill before
Congress, providing for this particular
mode OF imitation.
There have been about 5000 new post
Offices established within the last four years,
and this only furnished at the ratio Of one
out Of about 10000 who wanted to 90 into
the post office business.

On the Oath inst. Mr.. McClain offered a

The vote stood A against to 40 in favor,
and the resolution was lost, but the women
will keep on just the same.

Tennessee bonds still continue low and
are quoted in New York at 796S1, and at
G0dGla for the funded series. These bonds
are very dull here as there is no investment
demand for them. We suppose our dealers
would pay 20 and 80.
Comptroller's warrants are very seldom
on the market, nor is there any inquiry for
them. They may be quoted at 9jd96 buy

All of our local stocks are dull and diff

TOBACCO.

Tobacco is reported coming in at lively
rate.
The prime cause Of the rise in tobacco is
the gloomy prospect for the next crop.
Reliable advices from the GAINESVILLE
tobacco growing section say that there will
be almost a total failure in that region,
consisting Of Robertson, Montgomery and
Stewart counties in Tennessee, and Trigg,
Christian, Todd, Logan and Simpson coun-
ties in Kentucky. Only one-fourth of a
crop was planted; owing to dry weather,
only about one-half Of this win grow, and
it is impossible to get plants to replant.
A smaller crop is anticipated than has been
know for forty years. Similar information
reaches us from the tobacco growing section
of the upper Cumberland, consisting of the
