AtBirminghana, on the other hand, although
this city is the eeat OF the powerful associ-
alton known as the Education League,
great exertions have been requisite to van
qnisb the apathy of parents. Since 1872
nearly 5000 prosecutions are reported, or
an average of i 200 year. On the whole,
there 10 reason 10 believe that, aside from
the political principle involved, the mere
expense of applying q system of compulsory
cd ucatioa to the whole United Kingdom
may supply decisive argument against
the undertaking.

Casey was prosecuted on charge of Grim
lnal libel. Ieaac Butt defended him aud
spared no pains to have the case set In it's
true light. A public subscription raised
fonds for the defence which WAS necessa-
rily costly. Chief Justice May, of the
Queens bench, presided, and in his charge
TO the jury showed a strong bias again ct
the accused. He insisted that the manage
ment of an estate was a private concern,
and Casey was not justified in commenting
upon it publicly. He forgot to cay that
every newspaper in London commented
upon it. and that it was even brought
under the notice of Parliament. He also
insisted that Bridge could not be question
ed for making use of bis legal rights and
having the property valued and the rents
raised.
THE VERDICT.
The jury acquitted Casey of inoiting to
murder Bridge, one of the charges alleged
against him. They disagreed as to the
other points. So he was discharged. 1t ie
regarded aa triumph by the Nationalist
party. Casey was borne in triumph through
the streets, thousands cheering him. Mr.
Bntt is not likely to let clip such capital
opening for pressing the question of land
law reform.

A Mezquite that is not the Common
"AlgarOba SslandulOsa" Of Yuma.

The authors of the newly published
book, named 1.-TWO Thousand Miles in
Texas on Horseback" tell wonderful
story about the subterranean forests which
they observed on the prairies lying near
the river Concho, in the western part of
the State. "Riding over these vast prai-
ries," thus their story runs, though you
will see no trees, yet you will often see a
tender little switch of the mezquit shoot
ing a few feet above the ground. Now,
stop at one of these and strike at its root
with pick-axe, you will expect nothing
but tender, ferrous roots; but instead of
these, the pick comes in contact with q
heavy, solid body.
SURPRISED, you remove the thin cover
ing of earth, and you find a living log,
as thick as q mans leg, and extending you
know not how far. Exploring farther
around this same little shoot, you find
many logs of the same size. and an inf
mite number of branches extending from
them. Thus each little twig yields you
from quarter to a half-cord of fuel wood,
not equaled for that purpose by any other
wood within my knowledge. Thus these
treelcss plains are filed with fuel, almost
equal in its supply to the heaviest forest.
These shoots do not increase In size, but
after attaining certain dimension, too
small to be dreaded by an urchin, they
either stand at that or die and give place
to others. The branches of the large roots
left in the ground speedily supply the loss
by other roots as large as those taken
away"
Various theories are put forward to ac-
count for the existence of these under
ground forests, but none cited by the mar
rators OF the story are satisfactory. 1t is
said by some that the burning heat of the
sun has prevented the growth of the trees
above ground. Others urge that the scar
city Of rain in the region induced the phe-
nomenon; and again, that it is owing to
the frequency Of the prairie fires, which
consume the vegetation exposed to its eff
fects. But the same influences have no.
where else produced the same remarkable
results.

A Discovery.

Our women physicians ought to hunt
through the British Army records back
ward from 1866, and get the material for a
biography of DR.. James Barry. He was
an army surgeon for more than fifty years.
He was an inveterate smoker. His tenn
per was testy, causing frequent breaches
of army discipline, and, at one time, while
stationed at the Cape of Good Hope, caus-
ing him to fight duel. He trAveled in
the service to many distant localities, and
won his way to high rank by persistent
attention to his professional duties, and
unusual skill and boldness as an operating
surgeon. At his death, ID July, 1865, he
was at the head of inspectors general Of
hospitals. The day after his death start

The Office of Surveyor General.

Congress is entertaining the proposition
TO abolish the Office of United States Sur
+;asss= e.=sess4s!, 1sfs..zy reasons iruSe oOUn
given pro and con, but, somehow or other
men, when engaged in debate, rarely ever
give the influential reason of their conduct
The question of economy cannot Or ought
not TO be considered in this connection
It is the duty of the general government
to secure to every settler good and valid
title to his lands and to see that it is done
with as little expense to the settler as pos
sible. A million dollars might be saved
to the government by false economy in this
matter and many millions lost to the peo-
pie in the expense of litigation and the
loss Of lands and Improvements. 1t is the
duty of the government to make settle
ment of the public lands easy, safe and
cheap for the people. In this way only
can the Government care for the strug-
Cling classes. If the system now used is
defective, then let it be improved. We are
not prepared to express an opinion as to
the best methods of securing just distri-
button OF the public lands, but we protest
against any system of economy that may
Cypress the actual settler. The PROPOSE
ton TO remove the records of the land
offices to Washington or even to the State
Capitals is and must be in the interests of
land spectators. The men who take up
public lands have no money to spare for
lorg trips, and the country needs actual
settlers on the public lands too much to
discourage them in any way whatever. 1t
would be better to have hundred Sur
veyor Generals instead of sixteen, if they
could secure honesty in the execution of
! the land laws. We trust that the proposed
bill will not be passed until the people of
this coast have had an opportunity to read
and discuss it. If there is any possibility
of its passage, we hope our representa-
tives will send US the bill.-Sacramento

The Agitation Unabated.

LONDON, May Is. The agitation among the
strikers at Blackburn is undated. The mob as.
sembled to-day in front of the Town Hall, and de-
manded the surrender OF Col. Jack son, chairman
of the masters committee, and threatened his
life. The mob was terribly excited and ready for
any violence. Col. Jackson escaped with fully
ten thousand in pursuit, followed by the military
and police.
lancashire is greatly exaspersted at the refusal
of the masters for the conference. When the
representatives of the operatives left the meeting
at Manchester. yesterday, where no compromise
was arrived at, they indicated that the leaders
would not be able to longer restrain the men, and
disc aimed all responsibility for what might hap
pen in the strike district.
When the news of the decision reached Bur-
ley, thousands of the people assembled in the
streets hooting, shouting and smashing windows
A mass meeting will be held there to-day, and
serious trouble is feared.
The riot at blackburn last evening was the d.
rect result Of the announcement Of the failure of
negotiate ms There were also riotous demon
strations at Accrington, and serious breaches of
peace are apprehended there.
