TRESPASS.

The farmers of Plymouth, Conn.,, are
determined that the sin of encouraging
trespaSsers shall not lie at their door. They
have assembled in council and put forth
the result of their collective wisdom in the
form of: "Notice, to whom it may concern,
forbidding all persons hunting, trapping or
killing any partridge, quail, wood cocks or
any squirrels, rabbits, or any species of
game on our lands after this date" This
is not altogether a new thing. 1t serves,
however, to bring the trespass question
prominently forward. There must have
been some local grievance or ground for
investigation to induce the farmers thus to
combine, and to publish such document.
They mistake, however, if they suppose
that the notice will deter the ill disposed
pot-hunter and depredator. The fellows
who break down fences, or leave gates
open, or bring poultry to bag, are not to
be put down by notices. This warning will
not wish to offend, and is careful of his
neighbours feelings as of his own rights,
and before all things wishes to respect
breeding seasons and to give the game a
chance.
Now, we submit in all honesty to the
farmers that sport cannot be put down-it
is human instinct and will be gratifed.
We have never denied the right of the
farmer to exclude strangers from his land;
without quiet possession there would be no
property. No man has right to tramp
another mans field or to enter his house.
But there is a common sense limit to the
enjoyment of this indefeasible right. Here
and there we may find churl in town as
well as country who cannot enjoy life him
self and objects to any one else enjoying it.
But such is not social Characteristic
Farmers are, in the main, hospitable and
receive the well conducted stranger will
ingly. We put it to farmers whether a
good understanding between themselves
and their sportsmen neighbors might not
be mutual gain? If the farmers would
come into the sportsmen's clubs they would
have their say, and would find hearty
welcome. SpOrtsmen are, as rule, liberal
and large handed. There is no small mean
ness about the gentleman sportsman. If
he takes kindly he will give freely. One
of the objects of the sportsmen' club is to
protect, not to destroy, game. This can be
best done by the aid of the farmer. To be
friendly help to the farmer, not to be an
annoyance, is to the sportsman's interest.
We sportsmen want the general public,
and above all, the farmer, to come in and
make common cause with us. We are
willing to sustain the farmers rights; they
are identical with our own, and by work
ing together we can best uphold the law,
and put down unfair, unreasonable and
reckless pot-hunting. Every sportsmen' s
club will rejoice to have the farmers of the
country among its members. --Rod and Gun.

GENERAL NEWS.

| Columbus county within this month is
estimated at 5000.
President Grant and party arrived at
Pueblo, Colorado, on Thursday, and was
accorded an enthusiastic reception. The
President was suffering from cold.
! The latest news from Mississippi is to
the effect that the whites, under General
Chalmers, had surrounded the negroes at
Jamestown, and expected to either capture
or disperse them. Senator AlcoIn has sent
telegram to Attorney General Pierrepont,
in which he says that politics has nothing
whatever to do with the present quarrel,
which is entirely of a personal character
Nearly all the horses in the city of
Baltimore are affected with a severe dis
temper, but not many are disabled from
working. The disease seems to be modi-
fled form of the epizootic which prevailed
three years ago. Similar complaints come
from Philadelphia and New York. The
horses in all the stables in Toronto, Hamil-
ton and London, Canada, are said to DO
affected.

the bay having been rebuilt, and trains are
running regularly. Contributions for the
relief of the sufferers are pouring in from
all sections and are being applied where
most needed. The storm was not without
its beneficial results, the channel having
been washed out, and there is now IA feet

After the collapse of the Confederacy,
three or four hundred Southerners emigrat-
ed to Brazil, intending to reside there per-
manently, but being disappointed in their
hopes, they expressed desire to return to
their native country. Our Government,
being informed of their condition, offered
them free passage on naval vessels. The
first instalment returned to New York in
1871; since then different parties have come
home, and the remnant will soon be
brought from Para on the L. S. steamer
Swatara, and landed at Port Royal, S. C.

NOW WE KNOW,

The State Treasurer of Louisiana is now
undergoing trial, charged with having col
iected from the State S47, 900 on fraudulent
bonds. He is carpet bagger, and it is little
wonder that he should steal
We chip the above from the Lexington (Mo. J
Weekly Caucasian. 1t is a paragraph from an
article headed "High- Toned Scoundrels, and
serves to show how we have been deluded in
reference to the true condition of affairs in
this State. We didn't even know that Treas
urer Dubuclet had ever been tried for any,
thing, and the information that he is car
pet-bagger is perfectly astounding We have
been led to believe down here, that the Treas
urer was coIored man, who was born and
raised in this State, and don't believe he ever
owned carpet bag.

SEA SICKNESS.

Those who 60 down to the great sea in
ships will be pleased to learn that real
remedy for sea sickness has at last been dis
covered and Endorsed by the Journal du Hape.
The prescription varies with the constitution,
the kind OF weather, etc. For very rough
weather the formula is: Chloral three gram
mes, distilled water fifty grammes, currant
syrup sixty grammes, French essence of mint
two drops. Half the mixture to be taken on
embarking.
1t is probable that drugs will neither pre-
! vent nor cure sea sickness, the cause of the
malady being mech anical. On the deck of a
vessel at sea, when the water undulates, the
passenger undergoes constant succession of
rises and falls. When the vessel descends,
there takes place partial cessation of the
pressure of his feet upon the deck, and if the
descent is very rapid through considerable
distance Gas it is in storm when the waves
run high), the pressure of the weight of the
body is reduced to nearly nothing.
What takes place with the body relatively
to the deck of the vessel takes place at the
same time with the stomach relatively to the
diaphragm, upon which it usually presses
downward. For the instant that the vessel is
falling from under the feet tho diaphragm is,
so to speak, falling from under the lungs
heart and stomach.
In like manner the brain ceases to press
downward upon the base of the cranial cavity. |
The downward motion is abruptly sus-
pended and the vessel rises, reversing the |
process. The body then presses upon the
deck, with the full force of normal erayitation
increased by the upward pressure of the yes-
sell The same change to heavier pressure
lakes place with the stomach, brain, etc.
to the other contiguous and sup
porting parts.
1t seems to be this constant change from
diminished to increased pressure that pro.
iuces irritation, dizziness, nausea. To less
extent similar result is experienced from
swinging where there is constant change
rom ascending to descending motion. 1t is
vident that the only method of preventing sea
lckness is to counteract the motions of the
essel causing it. Balanced cabins upon the
Ian OF Bessemer may prevent the effects of
oliing and plunging, but not those of rising
nd falling, and the consequent effects of
aried pressure.

RED RIVER NAVIGATION.

About thirty miles below the city of Shreve
port there is a stream called Tones's Bayou
which is now attracting much attention
amongst those who are interested in the trade
and navigation of Red River. This bayou,
originally an inconsiderable body of water,
has been for the last fifteen years deepening
and widening, and now diverts, it is stated,
| wise flow down Red River.
1t is estimated that one-third of this volume
passes througha tributary bayou and returns
to the main river at or near Grand Ecore, the
remainder being carried off to the lakes,
lagoons and marshes of Western Louisiana,
realization of the extent of this DETECTION
can be obtained from the statement that at
present twelve feet Of water are reported at
Shreveport, whilst there are only thirty inches
below Tones's Bayou, where. there should be
at least five feet.
At one time, before the war, this subject
was brought before the Legislature, and the
closing Of the bayou strongly urged by the
representatives from the Red River country:
but at that time the bayou had not reached
proportions sufficiently large to cause appre-
tensions of immediate injury, and our Solons
declined to act on the matter. But now no
such excuse can be given, and the condition
Of Red River imperatively demands that
something should be quickly done for the re-
lief Of the various and important interests
About 200, 600 bales Of cotton come out of
Red River annually from Shreveport and
points below; if the navigation of the river is
not greatly improved, we may look, this sea-
son, for considerable portion of this trade
70 be turned away from New Orleans, its natu-
raj market, and carried off to st. Louis and |
other Western cities. Last year it was Janu-
'ry before high water came, and the shipment
If cotton was greatly retarded in consequence.
i Tones's Bayou were closed, there would be,
n all probability, good low water navigation
or the greater part of the year.
The interests at stake are so extensive and
important, and the demand for relief SO
rgent and imperative, that we call upon tie
Governor to take the necessary steps to have
bis bayou closed as expeditiously as posi-
lie. We are credibly informed the cost will
OF exceed $4,000. Let US have the work
one at once.
