The New Attorney General.

From the N. Y. Evening Post.
Edward Pierrepont, the newly appointed
Attorney General, was born in New Haven.
Conn, in 1917. He was fitted for college by
Noah Porter, now President of Yale. and was
graduated 1T the latter college in 1887, in the
same class with William NJ Evarts and Chief
Justice Waite. He was prepared for the bar
ct the Yale law school, then in charge Of Judge
Daggett, and was admitted to practice in 1910.
At that time he removed to Columbus, Ohio.
Here he remained five years, when he re-
moved to this city. where he has lived ever
since. He was elected Judge of the Superior
Court to succeed the late Chief Justice Oakey.
and resigned in 1858, after holding the posi-
ton for three years.
Judge Pierrepoint was an active supporter
Of President Lincoln. In 1862 he was a
M mber Of the civil and military commissions
for the trial Of prisoners of State. He was
counsel for the government in the Surratt
trial. During the war he was member Of

pointed United States attorney for New York,
which Office he held for fifteen months, when

1t ought to be needless to attempt to con-

this latitude of authority, any President Of
the United States is free from responsibility
for the doings of Indian rings, moiety thieves
and financial ignoramuses, and for postal
jobs, district misgovernment and the rest OF
the list Of abuses which have of recent years
caused Washington news to consist so largely
Of scandal Does any one believe that an ag-
gressive Executive, bound to support the
right and to remove the wrong, would have
been pOwerless under our constitution, to act
in accordance with bis inclinations? Would
any one believe that, while President Grant
was pointing to Congress as the body respon-
sible for anarchy in Louisiana and for the
failure to reform our civil service, that officer
did not have it in his power to command ali

GREAT BRITAIN AND INDIA.

From the Syracuse n. T.. Journal
Queen Victoria is an Empress as well as
Queen; her heir-apparent, the Prince Of Wales,
| will therefore become an Emperor as we'll as
q King when he shall succeed to his royal
heritage; for Victoria is Queen OF Great
Britain and Ireland and Empress OF lndla
and so Wales will succeed to the British King
dom and become also Emperor Of India. The
expectant King and Emperor is abont to be
sent on a visit to this Empire in the Far East,
and the fact that he will go on this tour some
time during the present year is officially pro-
claimed. Doubtless the object is to impress
! the dignity of the British sovereignty upon
the Indian people, and to do this the more ef-
fectua ally, the Prince will be surrounded with
uncommon ponp and splendor for a Western
monarch, in his visit to his future subjects in
India.
The British Prince, who is to make this
visit of policy to distant subjects of his royal
house, will go to a country whose royal dy-
nasties claim an antiquity beyond all Euro
pean royalty, Hindostan having nobility
which prides itself on its ancient heritage,
and which looks down with disdain upon the
comparatively modern titles Of European
noble families.
is much greater than is generally known. The
900 square miles and 100000, 600 population.
This is, in point of population, the largest
empire, save one, under single rule. Com
pared with it, all others seem insignificant.
During the reign Of Victoria much has been
done in the way of consolid stion. The acqui-
sition was begun by the East India Trading
Company. but that management was some
time ago pu. aside, and India has become an
integral part Of the British possessions, over
which the same imperial control is exercised
rs in Ireland, Cana la or Australia.
The Importance Of the Indian Empire, in
political and commercial aspects, is already
very great, and is constantly increasing. The
extensive domain aad numerous population
are now under the management OF British
officers. the outlying provinces being in a
semi-official subs-rvience to the British Gov
eminent, and the aim is to gradually merge
the entire people into dominion which shall
as thoroughly acknowledge British supremacy,
as the British Isles now do. The King OF
Great Britain and Ireland and Emperor OF
India, will rnle over the mightiest empire on
the face Of the globe or that has existed since
the fall Of Imperial Rome.

Early History Of Bloom and Portage
Townships.

The first saw mill built in this vicinity
was built by Mr.. Tiff and was situated
on small stream in section 81, in Mont
gomery township. As but little lumber
was used by the pioneers, and there being
no foreign demand, one saw mill could meet
the demands of three or four townships.
Mr.. Tiff was just the man to set up bus
mess in the woods, as he had been sal
lor he was used to hardships, having a
strong constitution and indomitable energy.
lie afterward started an ashery and manu-
| factured potash. lie sometimes followed
the business Of making pumps and whcr-
ever there was a pump wanted he would
take his tools, then go to the woods and
get small sicamore log and bore it out
for pump stock, and when finished it was
quite cheap and durable. Mr.. T. some
times suffered with ague. When in the
woods he would lay down on a log and
shake an hour or more, then go on his wav
again as ii nothing had happened. Mr..
I, finally removed to Perrysburg township
and during the war was anxious to enlist,
declaring that he was only foyty two years
Of age, while his son did not deny being
forty-five years old-the only instance, to
| my knowledge, of father claiming TO he
younger than his son. Believe the old
man finally went along with the Squirrel
Hunters.
The first saw mill built in Bloom town
ship was bailt by Joshua Ycaman and
was propelled by water-power. Mr.. \,
S;ackhouse run the mill for several years.
| sometimes running i! day and night Lum-
Der was very cheap but as the mill could
be run without any expense, except his
time, he succeeded very well and probably
made more money than many of our saw
mill men make at the present time. With
her fast mills the old mill is still standing
but has not been run for several years.
The first steam saw mill was built BY
Charles James q Co., about twenty-five
years ago and was built where Nesterode's
mill-run stands at Jerry City. few years
after the boiler exploded. The mill was
| repaired and passed into the hands of VIM
Young who built an addition and put in a
pair OF small burrs. Mr.. Young did very
good work for a short time, when the mill
took fire and burned down. Mr.. A. Fred
erick built the mill that occupies the place
of the one that burned. Jerry City owes
its existence more to that mill than any
other cause.
Mr.. Editor, l have gone little out of
my territory and wandered little from
my subject in this letter, but this could
not well avoid. ADoLPHUs.
