in protest. "&s
This statement, which is addressed to
the Senate and House of Representa-
tives in Congress, concludes as follows
eve solemnly warn the American
people, jealous Of their liberties, that
the military power displayed in the
House of Representatives of the STATE
OF Louisiana, may yet serve as a prccc-
dent to shake them and thus posterity,
if in this hour of trial, standing as we
do to-day amid the ruins of constitu.

fate.''
COUNCILLOR D1BBLE's CONCLUSION.
Mr.. Henry G. Dibble, who was coun-
sci for the Republican party of Louisi-
ana before the Congressional investi-
eating committee, addresses letter to
Hon. Chas. Foster, chairman of that
committee, arguing that the government
of the State since 1872 has been illegal
and revolutionary, and asserting that
the present Kellogg government, il
Guiding the Legislature, is an illegal,
revolutionary organization, the result
of counter revolution by the Repub-
ic ans, aided by the military. set on
foot to counterfeit contemplated revo-
lutionary movement of the conserva.
tives. Hence, he concludes, the State
has not q republican form Of govern.
ment, and it is the duty of Con ress to
reconstruct it, as in 1857. ''Mayhap,"
he says, with the experience we have
had we can do better; we can scarcely
do worse. l care not what plan be
adopted. so that we may have peace
and order, perfect fairness and justice
for ALL"

Profit i'm Hog Raising.
from the MankatO Union.

In the spring of 1870, Mr.. James
Miller, of Shelby, imported two Poland
China pigs from Indiana They cost.
him delivered by express at Mankato,
$31. This week he figured up the:
profits anc kindly furnished us the re-
suits. His sales from the SOW pig have
been, to date, $922.96, and has ten pigs:
left. This SOW during the four years:
has Uttered Ill pigs and has raised IS; ;:
she has had nine itters-thus averag-
ing 8 ~ pigs to the litter raised. Mr.
Miller kept the boar two years and his:
receipts from him, including the car
cass, which weighed 7S9 pounds were:
$l77.l2. We challenge any man in
Minnesota or out of it to make better
showing. Mr.. Miller is large whea t
grower-but we venture to say that his
net profit on these two pigs is equal tcs
that on his wheat raised during the:
same year.

Mr.. A. Bronson Alcott was once

pork becomes little swinish, does he

A New York Judge Sued for False
imprisonment for WrOngfully
Sentencing q Prisoner Before Him.

New YORK, Jan. 6.-Edward LANCE,
convicted in the U. S. Circuit Court of
unlawful use Of mail bags was GRO.
neously sentenced by Judge Benedict of
that court to fine and imprisonment,
when the law authorizes only fine or
Imprisonment. The first part
of the sentence having been
fulfilled, the United States Supreme
court has decided that the second part
of the Imprisonment was enforced with
out authority of law and LANCE was
discharged. Thereupon he brought
suit for false imprisonment. A demur-
rer was set by the defendant on the
ground that judge was not liable in
a civil action for damage. Notwith-
standing the commission of error, Judge
Van Brunt, ofthe State Supreme Court,
has overruled this demurrer, deciding
that a judge of the court of general ia.
risdiction makes himself liable to an
action when he attempts to enforce a
judgment which he knows to have been
satisfied.

Fearful Effects Of bad Writing.

Mr.. watts had occasion to 20 to New
York last week. After he had been
there few days Mrs. Watts received
a telegram, and not being able to de.
cipher the chirography of the operator
she had no doubt that something dread.
full had happened to her dear Jacob.
She had been brought up among peo-
pie who always regarded the receipt of
a telegram as signal for the family to
assemble and feel dlsconsolate. She
took the little ones over to her
mothers, and then went around to
Mrs. Smith S, to show the telegram and
weep over it. Mrs. Smith said she had
heard of people in New York who lad
suddenly disappeared, and were never
seen again until they were found cut up
and packed away in barrel in some
out-of-the-way place.
Mrs. Watts couldn't control her
grief, as she thought how awkward Mr..
Watts would look cut up into chunks
and sailed down in keg, and big
Jumps kept coming up in her throat as
she remembered that last Sunday she
didn't put any onions in the soup when
asked to. She asked Mrs. Smith if she
thought she would look we'll in black.
and then fell into Mysteries. Mrs. Smith
couldn't think Of such a thing as let
ting her 60 home that MI ht.
Mr.. Watts reached the city on the
midnight train on the same night. He
was surprised to find the house all
locked up, but concluded that Mary
must have been too tired to sit up for
him.
He rang the bell several times. and
then shook the door, but no one ans
wered. He started off to 60 to hotel,
but then thought that Mary must be
home, and then started back. He
punched the door, kicked it, got brick
and hammered it; then he stood off
and swore at it. A stream of profanity
issued from his lips and aoated away on
the night air that awoke all the police
men within half mile. He swore un.
til he was hoarse, and then hired COL
ored man to use some hard language.
They were both arrested for improper
conduct.
The next day he got away and found
his wife at home. She would not be-
lieve that he was her real flesh and
blood--Jacob Watts-until he allowed
her to probe his ribs with stick as
proof Of his substantially. He didn't
do half that he intended to when he was
locked up in the station-house, but he
mentally resolved that he would never
send another telegraph dispatch to
woman, not even if her husband should
run away with somebody else's wife.
