the requirement of loyalty, all these
transactions become by this accident
valid contracts, and will be payable
whenever Court shall be opened for
their adjudication. Moreover, the
seizure of property without the formal
ity of giving a receipt may be
considered an 'implied'' contract, and
thus this new field of enterprise be
greatly enlarged.
Not content with these liberal pro-
visions, the trainers of the bill have de-
vised still another method of approach
upon the Treasury. This is found in
the provision that any bill or petition
may, by vote of either House, be re-
ferred to the Court of Claims for ex-
animation, and then returned to Con-
gress, with its findings and reoommen-
dations. Everyone familiar with
Congressional proceedings knows the
ease with which bills and petitions may
be introduced "for reference only"
often even without being read. Neither
political party has yet avowed q will
ingness to pay war-claims, the owners
of which were disloyal, and none such
have received favorable consideration
from the Committees of either House,;
but, if the principle should be estab-
lished of referring them to Court
which was especially debarred from
considering the question of loyalty and
disloyalty, and before which the late
rebel may demand the same considera-
ton as if he had fought or suffered in
the Union cause, these claims must be
returned to Congress bearing the pres
tige of a favorable decision by one of
the highest courts in the land, with
their prima-facie validity established,
and the burden of contention removed
from the climants to the Government.
As thousands of the constituents of
every Southern Congressman are in
terested in one or more of these
claims, who can doubt the result,
(if the Democracy should ever gain
the ascendency) of the pressure which
would thus be brought to bear?
On the whole this measure seems tc
be device to make Unsuccessful re.
bellion profitable If it should become
law, it would take hundreds of mill.
ions from the Treasury certainly,
while its possibilities will only be
limited by the ability of the Govern
ment to pay.-N Y. Tribune.

Average Yield of Eggs.-The ed
itor of the Poultry Yard says; Though
in exceptional instances individual hens
will lay $50 to POO eggs per annum, yet
when several hundred head are kept
the average is not generally over ten
or eleven dozen. When we kept 600
fowls ourselves, embracing eight or ten
daily, year after year, we averaged
never over 130 per hen per year, and in
some instances as low as 115. But we
believe that by prolonged selection OF
the best layers, generation after gener-
alton, and skillful management, hun
dreds of fowls can be made to yield an
average of a gross per annum.

THE GOBLET.

And cnrven round in curious dainty sleght,
With all things that the sweetest words can tell
Or any sense delight.
Around the brim delicate tracery ran
OF oil prmordial forms, in limiting rude
OF the still Thought in which the final plan
Lay, graspcd and understood.
And lower down all budding vines and trees
In which the long still juices start and run,
Uttering the paining life to bird and breeze
And the demanding sun.
And then. two circles woven wondrousy
Till both were one, and yet the one was two;
Within the glory of rising sun
That every day is new.
Then, winding lines that parted and that met,
But still no ending showed to searching sight
Nor vet beginning, IN their beauty set,
And order infinite.
Such was it, and all liquor poured therein
Albeit it were water from the road
Scooped up by beggar's hand in cup of tin,
As heavenly nectar glowed.
Saw fairer skies and breathed in sweeter air;
The ancient world was re-create again;
Xhe gods were everywhere.
The night was day to them foreyermore,
Till haply came friend, and for Joy 8 sake

All, why unconscious Of the fore-writ fate?
Why noteless of the goblet's bodeful thrill?

Legal Advertising in COOPERATIVE News
papers.

An important decision, touching the
legality of advertising in newspapers
printed on the cooperative plan, has
been rendered by the New Jersey
courts. A mortgage sale was adver-
tised in newspaper printed on this
plan, and the property was sold as ad-
Vertised. The owner of the property
protested against the proceedings, on
the ground that the advertisement
thereof was not legal, because the
newspaper printing it was a so-called
"patent inside" A petition to set
aside the sale was accordingly filed in
chancery. Thepetition fully and square
ly raised the issue as to whether news
paper using a "patent outside" print
ed outside the State, was newspaper
printed and published in the State, in
which land sales might be legally ad-
vertised. The question was fully
argued before the Vice-C Chancellor, at
Newark, N. j., and decision rendered
"that such an advertisement was legal
and sufficient, and was both substan-
tial and literal compliance with the
statutory requirement." and the mo.
ton to set aside the sale was denied
and petition dismissed.

OF charges, the loss falls wholly upon
the owners of the property, even where
they were loyal and ought not to have
been stripped of their property at all.
The amount realized by the Govern
ment from sales of such property was
nearly $27 900, 900, of which more than
Sl0,0O0,000 have been paid to owners
who have proved their claims; but the
lowest estimate of what remains to be
paid to owners under any legislation at
all consistent with their demands is
$50, ,000,0 900, or S22, 100000 over and
above the balance legally presumed to
be in the Treasury, but not there in
fact.
3. Claims for the value of cotton
seized by agents of the Government
after June 80, 1865, contrary to law and
in violation of their orders. Seizures
under the Captured and Abandoned
Property acts were not made after June
80, 1865; but the Treasury agents con
tinued to search for and seize cotton
sold TO the Confederate Government
and which, though paid for by that
Government, had not been removed
from the possession of the vendors,
These claims are based upon the Legal
argument that the sales were in them
selves unlawful, and for an unlawful
and worthless consideration; aud, as
there had been no delivery, the title haC
not passed from the individual owners,
who are, therefore, entitled to the value
of the cotton so taken from them by the
Treasury agents. These claims are
estimated to amount to $4,000, 900
They are, in reality, among the mos
shameless which have yet come Il
light. They are exactly parallel will

sentatives by Mr.. Reagan, OF Texas
