BIG MEADOWS.

An interesting letter from an old
friend at Big Meadows appears i'll these
columns to-day. The region known
by that name comprises an extensive
area of agricultural and meadow land
ON the Humboldt river, ill the southern
part of the county. 1t is contiguous to
the Central Pacific Railroad. and, next
to Paradise Valley, is the most exten'
sivt tract of arabic land in the county.
A serions hindrance to the settlement
of the place has been the scarcity OF
wafer for irrigafing purposes. This
will shortly be removed by the Big
Meadows Irrigating Company, recently
incorporated for the purpose OF con-
structing ditch or canal from point
near the railread bridge on the Hum
boldt nver, OF sufficient capacity to
irrigate several thousand acres. Ger

THE United States Senate, by vote
of 80 to %, has refused to adopt a
resolution to admit Pinchback. of
Louisiana, to seat in the Senate.
Pinchback was elected by the Louisi
ana Legislature after tlat body was or
ganized by Federal troops. 1t was ex-
pected by Grant that Brother-in. law
Casey would be elected, hence the
order for military interference. The
Senate now decides against that body
by refusing to admit Pinchback, whom
it elected. Grantism is strange game,
and if anybody understands it he
should explain, as Minister Schenck
did draw-poker, by writing book on
the subject.

My children would despise me, my

He also asked witness to use her intlu-

often went to Woodhull's house for
the purpose of consulting her. as she
threatened to publish the scandal. On
the appointment of the church COM
mittee witness said to Beecher, The

me; no jury would give him verdict"
In cross examination witness said
that on one occasion when Beecher
threatened to commit suicide, she
placed her arms around his shoulders
and kissed him on the face, saying, "If
there ever was good man in this world
it's you. There is great deal of good
