An Independent Reformer IN the
Illinois Legislature has attracted at
tention by offering a resolution that,
inasmUch as the late revised statutes
had not yet been distributed long
enough for the people to get familiar
with them, 1t was the duty of the Leg
islature to make as few amendments. as
possible, and avoid all legislation ex-
cept what was absolutely necessary.
The House buried the resolution in the

WASHINGTON, Feb. 5.-Pinchback has
reSOTted to unusual means Of addressing a
memorial to and distributing it among
Senators, urging them to take speedy action
on his credentials as Senator frOm Louis

the interests Of that State suffer by delay.
Williams 10 Give Reasons
Attorney General Williams viii appear
before the Alabama Special Committee to-
morrow, 20 give reason for his action in
sending troops to Alabama towards the
close Of the year. The committee will not
report to the House for a week or ten
days.
Prospects Of the Civil Rights bill.
The Civil Rights bill passed by the House
to-day, goes to the Senate to be acted on
irrespective Of the bill heuet, fore passed by
the latter bOdy,and which now lodges in the
House. Owing to the great press of public
business, including the general apprOpria-
tiOn bills, and the short time remaining of
the session, doubts are expressed iu various
quarters as to whether the Senate will def
nitely act upon the measure.
A Poor Prospect for DePOsitOrs
The prospects are that depOsitors in the
Freedmen's Savings Bank viii not receive
over 40 or 45 cents on the dollar.

IN!llS valuable property generally known
4 about Barton as thc"Suhool House Lot"
hich has been so long sought after bv
the residents of Barton and others for build
ING lots lies in he Valley of Georges Creek
in the rapidly growing town of Barton
Situated as il is in the heart of a rich mining
district, and lying Immediately adjacent to
extensive mines of the great coal vein in full
operation, is rapidly enhancing in Value
The proprictors have determined, however,
to place limited number of lots in the
market at this time.
Nopropcrlv on Georges Creek offers such
advantages to persons desiring to secure
cheap, comfortable and desirable homes as
this, owing to its ncarnCSs to the Potomac
and other large coal mines in full working;
its freedom the dangers OF the railroad its
ncvcr-failing supply of GOOD fresh water; its
close proximity to the new public school
building, churches and stores, and its pcCu-
liarlv beautiful and healthy location.
The future prosperity and growth Of Bar
ton, and indeed the entire Valley, is assured
beyond Il doubt. The Cumberland Coal
now stands unrivalcd in demand and quail
ty in the markets of the world, and will CON
tinuc to grow in value, and even when
what is known as the Great Vein is OK.
haustcd-which will be many years hence
the smaller seams will be as eagerly sought
and worked as the large ones now are.
Thus it will he easily seen that these lots
must steadily grow in value and at the
prices and at the terms now offered, afford,
even to those not wishing to build first
class investment. This is more especially
the case, as these lots are almost the only
ones rcDajaihg un$old in Barton.
1t is hardly necessary to refer to the title
to this property. 1t is iHdiputtL}e and clear
of all lines and incumbranccs, the present
proprictors having pur, hascd it recently at
II trustees sale, unGcr decree of the Circuit
Court OF Allcgany county, in thanccry by
which the Deed of Trust under winch it
had been for sixty years past was vacated
and set aside and the property sold for the
benefit of the heirs of Roger Perry, the orig
inal owner.
Terms Of1ale:-But forty of these
lots, each being fifty feet front and one hun
bred feet in depth, will be now offered for
sale. Those on Bridge street, now unsold,
are reserved. The price for each lot is two
hundred dollars, TO be paid as follows $50
in cash ut the time of purchase and $40 per
month, without interest, until paid for
When desired deeds will be given at the
time Of purchase, and mortgages taken to
secure the deferred payments.
Where purchasers will agree to build, or
commence building, houses on lots so pur-
chased, within a specified time, notes with
approved security will be taken for the de-
tcrrcd monthly payments, and deed in fee
@mple will be given upon the payment of
the first instalment of twenty dollars
Arrangements will be made for the build
ing Of houses for purchasers upon monthly
payments, when applied for.

finally the lauGlady SON resolved to sleep
with him, and watch performances. He
did so, but the first night nothing hap

man was awakened by feeling his bci-fellow
pull Justify at the sheet. lie opened his
eyes, and there saw the clerk sitting up in

him from pulling it from its place, and
still kept watch. Finally he spoke "Will
ten yards be enough, maam?" Saying
which, he seized his companions night

tore it clear up in front.
"Hcllo. what are you doinga" said
he. waking the somllambIlist rudely.
Wha-what's the mattcr?" he asked,
frightened badly.
"Matter Why you have torn my shirt

however. The poor clerk was attending to
