France to arming all the male citizens of
the Kingdom; and France owes her de-

priving the French people of arms. When
Prussia called her citizens to battle they
had been accustomed to shoot the Needle
gun, and they came by the hundred
thousands; when France called for new
levles for her armies, these new levie.
did not know how to use the Chessepot

Prussia, which thus rose to the first pow.

CONGRESS is approaching the end of
its session, but it should find time to do
justice to the House bill,just favorably re-
ported, for restoring to the public domain
fully one hundred million acres of land.
These lands have from time to time been
granted to States and to corporations, to
aid the building of railroads, telegraphs,
and other public works not completed
within the terms of the grants. These
lands are no doubt forfeitable, if not for
feited; but as it is held that the forfeiture
does not take effect without legislation,
legislation should be applied. There are
twenty-three different projected railroad
and telegraph lines concerned in this
bill. Some of the grants date back more
than twenty years; they include land in
Mississippi, Alabama, Florida, Louisiana,
Arkansas, Missouri, Wisconsin, Mime
sofa and Michigan, as well as in the
States and Territories of the far West;
and the Northern Pacific, and Texas
Pacific roads received five sixths of all the
land thus granted. Though some of the
lands are of little value, others are ex-
tremely fertile. In few cases the lands
have apparently been allowed to remain
part of the public domain, even when the
terms Of the grant have been complied
with, in order to escape taxation; but this
also is piece of sharp practice that needs
to be checked.

A NEW Court HOUSE NOT WANTED.
1t has come to our ears that the Levy
Court is to be called together on Thurs
day, to consider the project of new
Court House.
We could hardly believe that there is
any serious intention of going into such
needless extravaganza now. But it is
fact, and the Court has already
held one meeting on the subject.
The Court is composed entirely of
Democrats, and Of course the action will
be saddled upon the party.
The present Court House Is almost as
large and as well ventilated as either of
the court rooms in Philadelphia were
when that city had four hundred thou.
sand Inhabitants, and we doubt if the
new court room built on Sixth street
near Chestnut, few years ago, is any
larger than our court room. If a court
room covered an acre lot it would be
packed in cases of excitement and on
the first days of court
A new court house is not needed. The
present one is good enough unless the
county was out of debt The people OF
the county do not wish to be taxed 70,
new one. The old one is we'll located
on an elevation in the centre of the cit,
of New Castle, with fine opening oil
each side.
If new court house is built now. i
will be impossible to make the peopl
believe it is not job for somebody
benefit, and it will tend to the injury o
the party and probably defeat it befor
the house is ready for occupancy.
A better way would be for the peopl
to settle their difficulties without goin
to Court, and thus reduce the crow,
that attends Court, and save the time an
money they now spend in litigation.
