propriety of reporting law for the pur-
pose of breaking down the lobby. It is
proposed to recognize attorneys before
committees to urge legislation, these per-
sons to file statement Of retainers and
contingent fees, and no sums except
those set forth can be collected. If the
Ways and Means or any other commit
tee succeed in devising a law that will
break up the lobby, or seriously inter
fere with their corrupt Vaccinations,
they will merit the eternal gratitude of
the honest portion of the country.
The Chicago Times prints letter
from DR.. Heise, chief physician of the
Illinois Penitentiary, on the best modes
of punishment for convicts. He pro-
nounces decidedly against the barbarities
practiced for SO many years upon the
convicts, holding that the application of
the lash, the cold bath and the ringbolt
are degrading in their tendency and do
not assist in preserving order They ex-
asperate the prisoner, while they do not
subdue his rebellious spirit. DIR. Heise
thinks that humanity should be combined
with the rigid enforcement of order, and
recommends as punishment for infraction
of discipline confinement in solitary
cell and reduction in the diet of the re-
calcitrant convicts.
The story telegraphed from New York
and London, to the effect that certain
figures show that the earth is falling to-
ward the sun at rate which will bring
them together in some l, 440 years, is
pronounced, by those best able to
Judge, to be hoax of the worst kind.
Astronomers know, and can prove, that
what is known as the "mean distance" is
almost exactly the same as it was at the
date of the transit of Venus in 1862
They furthermore know, and can prove,
that the Average distance of the earth
from the sun is greater now than it was
then, the orbit having swelled out slight
ly, increasing the minor axis, while the
major axis remains unchanged. Nervous
people, therefore, may rest satisfied that
we are not nearing the sun.

Casualties,

A WOMAN named Johnson in attempting to
cross the Fox river at Oshkosh, few DAYS ago,
broke through the ice No one was near to
render assistance save her little boy years of
age, who was a few rods behind her, The ice
around the woman was 80 rotten she could not
support herself above the water, and she would
have drowned had not the little fellow got a
board and placed it along the edge of the hole
which she chung to until he ran and summoned
assistance, which soon arrived, and the little
hero's frantic alarm gave place to Joy at having
saved his mothers life
Deaths.
]. w. WEBSTER, of Elkhorn, the author of
"Larena, and other beautiful ballads died at
his residence in that village last week. He
furnished the world during his lifetime with
songs which, for their pathos and melody, have
seldom been equaled and never surpassed. AS
musical composer also he had few if any
equals in his particular line. Yet he died poor.
and without much of the praise and fattery
liant minds. A fatal love for strong drink I'M
fitted him at times for labor, but he was a good
citizen, and was universally loved and respect

ACCIDENT
Young Gould Shot and Instantly
Killed by His Friend.

A lamentable and fatal accident occurred
Sunday evening, near o'clock, at the resi-
dence of Mr.. H. Fl. Walsh, 1872 Erato street.
It appears that at the hour named three
youths, Walter Walsh, Howell Reed, and
Walter Gould, were assembled in a room at
the house of Mr.. Walsh, when Walter, the lat
ter's son, brought forward shotgun, recent
purchase, and presented it for the inspection
Of his friends.
There was at the time revolver lying upon
the mantel, which young Reed picked up,
and throwing himself into an attitude ex-
claimed, "this is the way I would stand if
had to fight duel"
He had thoughtlessly cooked the weapon,
and pointed it at some object on the wall, when
young Gould unfortunately passed in range.
At that juncture, Reed, being near-sighted,
drew the revolver to his face, and by acct
dent touched the trigger.
Gould fell and almost instantly expired the
ball having entered the head near the left ear,
passing directly through the head. One can
better imagine the agony of the companions
of the unfortunate young Gould than it can
be here conveyed.
Reed, in anguish, rushed to the house of
his parents, and impaired the tragedy wherein
he had been so unfortunate an actor. With
them he returned to the residence of Mr..
Walsh, whereat had assembled meantime
many friends of the several families.
Coroner Chastant was summoned, and i'm
mediately. held an inquest on the body; the
jury rendering verdict that death had been
caused by pistol shot fired accidentally by
Howell Reed

would become grave question whether we
ought to do SO, or whether common humanity
would not require US to save them from them
selves But, under the circumstances, this is
only speculative point It is not proposed
merely that they shall govern themselves, but
that they shall rule the white race, make and
administer State laws, elect Presidents and
members of Congress, and shape to greater
or less extent the future destiny of the whole
country. Would such trust and power be
safe in such hands?
l repeat the expression of my willingness
to join in any plan within the scope OF our
constitutional authority which promises to
better the condition Of the negroes in the
South, by encouraging them in industry, en-
tighten their minds improving their morals,
and giving protection to all their just rights
as freedmen. But the transfer of our political
inheritance to them would, in my opinion, be
an abandonment of duty which we owe
alike to the memory OF our fathers and the
rights of our children.
The plan of putting the Southern States
wholly, and the General Government par
tally, into the hands Of negroes, is proposed
at a time peculiarly unpropitious The
foundations of society have been broken up
nv civil war; Industry must be reorganized,
Justice re-established, public credit main
tanned, and order brought out of confusion.
To accomplish these ends would require all
the wisdom and virtue OF the great men who
formed our institutions originally l conf
IDENTIFY believe that their descendants will be
equal to the arduous task before them, but it
is worse than madness to expect that negroes
will perform it for US. Certainly we ought
not to ask their assistance until we despair Of
our own competency.
The great difference between the two races
n physical, mental and moral characteristics
Will prevent an amalgamation or fusion of
them together in one homogeneous mass. If
