In the flush times of Vicksburg when
the phrase "hard case" meant something
more than it does now, Harvey jenkins
was admittedly one Of the hardest. The
sermon being over, the preacher request
ed all those who were friendly to religion
10 rise and hold up their hands. The
whole audience, apparently, were on
theIr ieet' After they were seated again,
the minister continued "Now, if there
n single one here who desires to see
sat'n and his kingdom prosper, he will
use and hold up his hand" Harvey,
WIN some difficulty, got to an erect po-
sltlon and said: "IIad the vote been less
unanimous should have retained my
seat but | make it a point of honor
neVer to abandon friend under adverse
circumstances"

THE SCALP BILL.

Assemblyman HAmmand has intro
duced bill to repeal the ,,faw which
provides for paying premium for the
scalps of coyotes, etc. This bill ought
to pass under suspension of the rules
and be sent TO the Governor at once.
The law is not only very burdensome
to the taxpayers, or at least the scalps
are, but the killing Of cayotes is pos
tive injury to the farmers. One rab-
bit will do more mischief than a half
dozen cayotes. In fuet, cayotes are
absolutely harmless, except that they
kill sheep when. tney have an opportu-
nifty.
AS sheep are required to be herded,
watched and protected from cayotes,
anyway. we can see no benefit anyone
derives from the bounty law, except
those engaged in taking scalps. As
the cayote lives principally upon rab-
bits, it ought to be protected, instead
of exterminated.

repulsed by the garrison. IS Cossacks
and Ill Turks were killed.
The Eastern Question.
The war question was never so mud
died as now. The sticking point with
the conference is the proposition to
put Bulgaria into the bands of Euro
pean receivers. This proposition the
Turks stubbornly decline, because the
Sultan believes bis subjects would re-
volt if it is accepted. which would
necessarily provoke hostilities by the
great powers against Turkey, who
would thus play Russia's game for Der.
At this hour the diplomatic situation
gives Russia every advantage if she
really desires war, and Turkey finally
refuses the conference terms. The
wisest fail to see what additional con-
cessions the conference can offer.

Ever since the 7th day of November

have been laboring under the most III

next President. Complications have
been piled up. Leading statesmen,

well nigh exhausted their vitality and
the patience of the country in attempt

We have heretofore refrained from
giving any definite answer ourselves,
but to Allay all excitement and anxiety
on this subject SO far as possible, we
deem it our duty as journalist to give
an answer to the absorbing question.
For the last two months, we have
been calmly surveying the whole field.
We have diligently studied the history
OF our country; carefully read the opin-

scanned the dispatches; perused inves-
legations. pondered over 250, 900 inter-
views of great men; committed the
Constitution of the United States bear

have at our tongues end all the joint

to the election Of Preside MT, and feel
fully prepared to answer the question
without fear of successful contradic
