Mr.. Mcclellan, ST., has returned from
his mountain ranch, where about $50
head of fine cattle were left last fall,
and he found them in excellent condi-
ton. They are some 40 miles beyond
LaPorte. None of the stock men in
that region have lost any cattle.
The snow has now mostly disappear
ed and but little frost remains in the
ground. Fields sloping to the south
are dry, and in some such, plows are al
ready running. Mr.. La Grange will
put in 80 acres of wheat this week, and
seeding will proceed rapidly.
Cattle thieves are now and then ar
rested, but there is no doubt that many
are operating who are unsupported.
Cattle are driven to Cheyenne or Dem
yer, and butchered or sold, or the dress
ed meat is taken. An organized detec-
tive force is required to break up these
gangs.
Mr.. j. S. Flory has invented a grass
hopper catcher, which, it may be pre-

one to gather the insects into a box or
vat, the enemy being brought in by re-
volving arms or fans. The machiue
can be worked by hand Or horsepower,
and it may be large or small, so as to
work in a field or garden. When it gets
to work we can tell better as to its mer-

A party Of miners in the Black Hills
recently compared eyes and ears over a
camp fire. One said: "When I was
coming to the Hills, L looked for In
dams until / could see a MOSQUITO a
mile away" Another said that his
eyes were weak, but he could hear gnats
jumping round Oh the rocks four miles
of. The next man had listened for
Indians until he heard the mountain
sheep light on their horns in the Big
Horn mountains, three hundred miles
away. The fourth, with his head on
his pillow, had strained his ear until
he heard The Chinese mailing up tea
boxes, The fifth, in crossing the
Rocky mountains, had found a petrifed

stone. As he looked on the edge. a

transformed in a moment into solid

perching upon a tree, began to sing.

fed, hanging down from the beak Of

Washington, March 3.-The Demo-

address to the country, prepared by
Representative Hurd for the signatures
of members of the party in Congress.
The address is in the nature of q -
test against the declaration of Hayes
and Wheeler being duly elected. 1t
characterizes it as an election by the
electoral commission, and asserts that
the right of Congress has been invaded;
that crime and fraud have received ju-
dicial sanction, and republican insti-
buttons have been imperilled. The eau
Gus adopted only that address. 1t was
of short duration and not numerously
attended.

How wild BiII,s Murderer Died.
YANKToN, March

4ANKTON, Alarcn L.
At 1915 O'Clock this morning John
Mccall was executed under the direc-
ton of the United States Marshal, for
the murder of John B. Hickok, better
known as "Wild Bill" in the Black
Hills on the End of August last. Nc
Call was a young man about 20 years
old, and behaved throughout with the
utmost GOODNESS and nerve. He wasat-
tended during the past few days by a
Catholic priest, and while not denying
his crime he appeared to regard his sem
tence as just, and evidently endeavored
to go prepared to enter the next world
in a proper spirit. 1t is ascertained that
John Mccall is his true name and that
he has n father, mother. and three sis
tiers residing in Louisville. To one of
the latter he wrote a very feeling letter
last night, in which he seemed fully
r%econciled to his fate. Great credit is
due to the United States Marshal for
the careful preparations made and the
manne in which his unpleasant duty
was performed throughout.

Washington, March 3.-Representa-
tives Ellis, Wilson, Levy and Burk, af-
ter an interview with the President
this morning, sent the following tele-
gram TO Gov. Nichols:
WASHINGTON, d. c. March 8.
To +. I. Nichols, New Orleans:
The President says he sent adispatch
to Packard, Thursday, notifying him
that troops could no longer uphold eth
err claimant, and he does not believe
Packard would attempt any offensive
operations. The President SEN the
dispatch so that he might have time to
retire from his p~retensions if disposed.
The President says instructions have
been issued which cancel all orders for
the preservation of the statu quo; that
neither you nor Packard are longer
bound to observe it; that he means that
the people of Louisiana are as free in
their affairs from federal interference
as the people of Connecticut. and that
there will be no disposition to interfere
with them any mole than with the peo-
pie of New York. The President con
ours with us that you Immediately is
sue proclamation and urge the protec-
tion of the amnesty of peace. Being
asked if n posse executing the process
of Nichols court would be interfered
with by the military, the President re-
piled: "No more than in any other
state" Being asked if Nichols officers
should take possession of the offices in
the State House, without mob violence,
would there be military interference?
he replied, ''there would be done; that
military would only be used as it had
been in New York, to overcome mobs
too formidable for the State authori-
ties.
We have submitted the foregoing
dispatch of yesterday TO the President,
who has revised it with his W hand,
and authorizes us to state that, in its
present form, it is absolutely correct.

WASHINGTON
Grants Last Official Acts.

Washington, March 3.-President
Grant, accompanied by Secretaries
Fish and Robson, and his secretaries,
U. S. Grant, jr., and q. G. Sniffen,
went to the Capitol last night, and i'm
mediately went to the Presidents room
in the Senate wing. He sent for sever
| al senators and representatives, with
whom he conversed on public matters.
He again urged his views in favor of
additional legislation to facilitate the
resumption of specie payments, and eX-
pressed the hope that, ever in the few
hours left of the session, something
might be effected.
The President had n conversation
| with Gen. Gordon on South Carolina
affairs. Gordon appealed to him to
take some action in regard to South
Carolina. as he had in Louisiana. The
| President said he had not yet made up
his mind concerning South Carolina;
that Chamberlain had not given him
much trouble, and he hoped the courts
would be able to settle the matter with
out interference. lie said also that, per-
haps, it would be best for him to see
Gov. Hayes and ascertain his views
about the propriety of withdrawing the
troops. He said, further, it was possi-
BILE that, on reflection, lie might to-mor-
row conclude to issue the orders asked
for in South Carolina, but he could not
say for certain. He expressed a desire
to take such action in both of these
states as was right and would meet the
approval of the country.
To the Democrats with whom he con-
versed, the President intimated that it
was his wish to Danish all feelings of po-
litical %antagonism or resentment. The
warm personal expressions of the Pres
ident made a profound impression on
them.
The President and members of the
Cabinet arrived at the Capitol about
1O:30 his EVENING, and began the ex-
AL a of bills submitted for appro-

Carter to Sergeant-at-arms Thompson,
Of the House of Representatives, di-
rected him to bring, to-day, before the
chief-justice the returning board of
Louisiana, now held in his custody by
order Of the House. Marshal Sharp
served the writ, and Mr.. Thompson
said he would refer the matter to the
speaker. 1t is understood that the OBJ
ject of the writ is not so much to obtain
the freedom Of the men as to raise Il
question as to the power of the House
OF Representatives to order the board
into custody, and then to carry the case
to the Supreme Court. The members
of the returning board were discharged
from custody.

of Ohio friends: Il am not authorized
to speak for the President-elect, but l
venture to say that, in pursuing a just
and co%nciliatory policy, it must proceed
on the basis of the enforcement of the
18th, 14th, and 18th constitutional
amendments; it must proceed upon the
basis of granting protection to life and
liberty, and to the political rights of all
classes, without regard to color or poll
tics. There a be no compromise, no
peace which is not based on the politi-
cal and civil rights of all classes of men.
