A curious parallel to the story told by
the Tichborne claimant has recently
come to light in England. 1t is said to
be an actual occurrence, which. took
place in the very neighborhood in Aus
tralia where the claimant first appeared.
A young English nobleman having fallen
into dissipation, left England, sailed
about the world, and finally reached
Australia. There he took service as q
shepherd, and for several years kept
sheep for farmer. One day while pack
Ing up something in piece Of English
newspaper, his eye was caught by an
advertisement stating that his father ad
died, the title ami property fallen to him
self and offering f200 for his discovery.
This shepherd lord actually managed to
get the money offered tor the discovery
himself, drank it up, but has refused to
leave Australia. Knowing the family
banker, he sends pretty regularly for
money, but he has never, like the claim
ant now in prison, sent to different
banker from the one with which he him

THE GRANGE MOVEMENT.

The Times editorially reviews the pres
ent condition of the Granger movement,
and says the movement has been at
tended by many disadvantages. The
SGrangers have thrown taint on the
credit of the country by their reckless
acts. The West, however, will not suffer
from it's immediate consequences, be-
cause thereal interests of that region do
not require that it should borrow any
more at present. But careful Western
men see that the National good name has
been injured.
The railroad legislation of the West
has been accepted as definite declara-
tion that the capitalists must submit to
receive on their investments simply
what profits those who use them choose
to pay, and that losses shall never be
made up.
The conclusion is that when the capt.
allst places his money in Western rail.

ant abuse. The worst evil of the Granger
system is their INSCRIPTIONS methods

terests, attempting to bias the judiciary,
etc. In the work of uniting farmers and
protecting and advancing their inter.
ests, however, the Changers are serving
q valuable purpose.

notwithstanding all this, the Picayunc
says the cotton States are in a dcplora

scarcely any money, and their credit is
almost gone. They have gone on
producing cotton and purchasing sup,

leaves them deeper in debt. Now the
