The advantage gained by driving colored

hardly overbalance such a loss.

THE NEW SENATOR PERSONALLY
A dispatch from La Crosse to the
Mllwaukes Sentinel. says of the
newly elected U. S. Senator:
Angus Cameron, the senator elect,
was born in Caledonia, Livingston
County, N. Y, in July, 1926. He
studied law in Buffalo. He came to
Lacrosse in October, 1857, and haa
practiced law here since that time.
He has held the position of Assem-
blyman from the La Crosse District
two terms, and has been two terms
in the State Senate. He was elect
ed speaker in 1867, end filled all
the pos tons with credit to himself
and to the entire satisfaction Of his
constituents. lie was wing up to
the time Fremont ran for President,
since which time he has consistent
~ acted with the Republican party
and has been considered one OF its
most ardent opponents.
The news of his election was a
pleasant surprise to most Of the citi-
zens of La Crosse. He is receiving
the congratulations of his friends at
his office this afternoon, aid wears
his honors with his usual dignlfied
suaviry of manners. AS lawyer,
ne stands In the front rank OF his
profession in Wisconsin, and as
legislator he commands the respect
and confidence Of his associates. As
citizen he is above reproach. No
man n the State has a clearer moral
character.
h1r. Cameron is Scot Imam by
descent, and will carry into his new
position all the sterling characters
tics of that hard-heAded race.
Although acting with the Repub-
licans on nearly all the great ques-
tons which have made them perma.
nentIy the party Of progress, upon
the financial question he has always
been a hard money man, and will be
found ready to advocate any safe
measure tending to a speedy resump-
ton OF specie payments. He indors-
es, with all ITS generalities, the plat
form put forth by the fusion which
elected him. but will, no doubt be
found upon all vital questions acting
with the Republican party. If the
Democratic party is satisfied with
him, it is strong indication of
change of heart which of itself,
SHOULD be subject Of congratulation
to Republicans.

RE- SEATING CHAIRS.

Cane seated chairs are very apt to
wear out and then, if their owners
are far from the upholste' er, they are
thrown aside as useless. Daisy
Eyeoright tells in the Country
Gentleman how to repair them so
they will be ''good as now.'' And
she tells SO that any woman with o
little ingenuity can do it:
Take any pieces of bagging or
burlaps-no matter bow coarse
and fiji them to the chairs, cutting
them large enough to wrap about
the rounds that hold the splints or
canes. Now sew it on with darn
ing needle and twlne twice doubled,
and turn up hem, as you sew on
the burlaps. When half fitted, stuff
it with excelsior" shavings Of pops
lar wood; Or it you have them, cut
off layers from old quilts, under tna
burlaps. The layers Of Gotten can
be tackel together before they are
put in, and then they can be laid
more smoothly upon the old canes.
Fine hay will also answer for stuff,
ing when nothing better can be
procured.
Now sew down the other twoside.
and take pieces of carpeting, OR of
enameed cloth, or colored rep, or
all wool dress goods, and tack them
closely down with large silverad or
brass headed rails, which come for
the purpose, and behold! your chairs
are far handsomer and more comforta-
BILE than before. The materials have
possibly, cost you but little, for
many an attic would furnish them
all but the nails, which must be
procured at a upholsterer's. Gimp
to match the ground color Of the
cushion, or even worsted braid, is
desirable to place aIoug the edge Of
the covering, and drive the nails di.
rectly through it. This makes O
handsomer finish to the cushion.

Our attention to the big farms in
1llinois-4O,O 900 acres, eighteen in corn,
five in oats and fax and the rest in
grass-has recalled q notice of the
London Spectator, from the doomsday
book of Scotland, which has list of
those landholders who each own more
than 20, 600 acres of land in that coun-
try. The result is that one man alone,
in his own and his wife's right, holds
more than a fifteenth of the entire
area of the kingdom, and twelve men
own nearly third; a proportion
probably exceeding anything known
in western Europe. No less than 1O6
hold more than 10000 each, and of
these fifty-three hold more than 50,-
coo each. The fifteen who own the
largest amounts OF land are:
The Duke of Sutherland, 1,176. .343
acres; Duchess of Sutherland, lag. $40
acres; Sir j. Matheson. 4O6, ,O7O acres;
Mr.. A. Matheson, go, ,433 acres; Earl
of Breadalbane, 437 ,696 acres; Duke
of Buccleugh, 432, 1873 acres; Earl of
Sea6eld, BOG. 900 acres; Mr.. Evan
Baillie, BOG, 900 acres; Earl of Stair.
10000 acres; Duke of Richmond,
255,O acres; Duke of Athole, 1884,
coo acres; Duke of Hamilton, 1S3, 600
acres; Duke of Argyll, l75, 600 acres;
Sir X. Mackenzie, of Gairloch, 164,-
$50 acres; Macleod, Of Macleod. AL
700 acres.
The old idea that the Duke of Suth-
erland owns an entire county is not
true, but the Duke, with his wife, the
Countess of Cromartie, owns more
than the entire surface of any county
in England, except Yorkshire and
Lincolnshire.-New York Express.
