The Immigration. Pamphlet.

To All Whom it May Concern
Splendid progress is being made on
the immigration pamphlet, the first
48 pages having been printed,
and the next 16 being ready for the
stereotyper. Owing to the illness of Geo.
E.. Skinner, land commissioner of the St..
Paul, Chicago, q Milwaukee, & Hastings &
Dakota railroads, at FariEault, delay has
arisen in the preparation of the quota be-
longing to those roads, rendering it neces-
sary to telegraph the matter from MilYau-
kee.
hope to have the completed pamphlet
ready for the mails on Friday evening of this
week, which will bring it within the pre-
scribed eight days from the commencement
of the work. From even the few notices
which have appeared in the St. Paul papers,
an immense demand has already sprung up,
extending from Maine to Mississippi. Many
parties want from six to dozen copies to
send to friends. Any one may judge from
this what the demand will be when the adj
vertisement and reading matter, half col
umn article, gets into the American Newspa-
per Union.
All parties who have ordered copies, may
rest assured that they will be forwarded by
the first mail after their issuance from the
press. JOHN w. BOND,

false L4LARW.

The New York Sun, the most able and
persistent Of the newspapers that urge Con-
gross to reopen the question of the fraudulent
Presidents title to his Office, warns Demo-
cratic Congressman that if majority of
them arc found consenting to the retention
OF the Presidency by Mr.. Hayes to the end
of his term, the Democratic voters will be
30 disgusted that they will let the next presi.
dental election go by default. The reasons
which prompt our luminous contemporary to
send forth its warning ray are as foil ows:
THE dissatisfaction among the Democratic
masses at the failure to inaugurate Mr.. Tildcn
Is not only general but intense. We know thai
1t Is common in this State for Democrats to
say: What is the of going to the polls?
We elected one man, and then couldn't get him
in And the distrust felt toward all those
who were concerned in throwing away the
election by agreeing to the Electoral Commits
sion seems likely to be permanent"
The GLOBE believes that the Suns warn
ing is so much waste, as it ought to be. It
is bug-a-boo, devoid of reality-a Chinese
sounding of gongs to brighten foe. If
tho Suns relation of facts left nothing to be
added, it might be worth while to recognize
the story is not carried to an end.
No one man was more concerned in
throwing away the election than Mr..
Samuel J. Tilden himself. No one Demo-
cratic paper was "more concerned in throw
ing away the election than the New York
SIN. When the scheme for an electoral
commission was mooted Mr.. Tilden kept
absolute silence. The Sun kept absolute
silence. It was not until the commission
had been appointed, and it was known that
Aliunde Joe would be the fifteenth commits
sioner, that the Sun made any mention for
or against the scheme. Ever since Mr..
Tilden was nominated for President, the Sun
has ben recognized as the vehicle by which
be has conveyed his ideas to the public. If,
when the commission was under discussion
and when all other newspapers were giving
the pros and cons, the Sun had denounced
the arrangement, everybody would have at
once understood that Mr.. Tilden was opposed
to the plan. At that time bold, emphatic
declaration of his refusal to accept anything
less than the Presidency would have made
Mr.. Tilden President. But, no; III. Tilden
held his peace, and the Sun avoided all dis
cussion Of the proposed commission, and, the
man who should have been their leader fail
ing to lead them, the Democrats wandered
Into the trap.
The Democratic voters are not now dis
posed to have the country thrown into an
agitation for the benefit of a man who had
his opportunity and let it slip from him.
They dlstrust him, as they distrust call who
were concerned in throwing away the cleo
hon," and the distrust, as the Sun says,

RIO JGMctro.
Rio Janeiro, the capital of Brazil, is not
just the place that one would choose for a
summer resort. Yellow fever was raging
there about month ago, as reported by a
British steamer lately arrived at New York.
The disease is almost sure to attack foreign
ers, and even old residents were dying with
the epidemic. The newspapers record 1862
deaths in thirteen days, but not fourth of
the deaths are recorded. Water was SO scarce
in the city that official notice was given that
any one having fountain playing would be
entirely deprived of water. The Cunhense
newspaper of the province of San Paulo tells
the story that, in consequence of the ex-
IRENE drouth, the parish priest organized a
procession TO carry the municipal miracu-
lous images from Boa Vista to Cunha, and
that on February 18th the prayers were be-
gun, and such we're the faith and feryor
with which the itanies we're intoned that
rain began at once to fall.
The city of Rio Janeiro is surrounded bv
mountains, and in the sickly season there is
scarcely any breeze until afternoon, when the
wind arises seward. In morning it is dead
calm, and miasmatic vapor lies on the city.
sailor then never goes ashore without his
coffee and brandy. The first thing on rising
in the morning he is given glass Of
quinine and rum, then coffee and brandy,
aad then breakfast. The decks are careful
~ sprinkled with carbolic acid. The first
thing the officers do when going On deck in
the morning is to count how many flags are
flying as signals of sickness in the shipping
about them. Every morning from IL to Is
signals cou be counted. There were, when
the Glen Sam x was I, era, nearly hundred
vessels in the harbor. Some had been there for
SIX months, captain and many of the crew
dead, and unable to procure new master,
or to fill out the crew. The captain, mates
and entire crew of the British schooner
Princess were in the Lazarette hospital
A passenger on the Glen Sannox was w.
Hayden Edwards, secretary of the United
States Legation in Rio Janeiro. Many Of
his friends died there, and he became alarmed
for his life, saying that he would not remain
for the whole empire, if it were offered to
him. So he put an open bottle of carbolic
acid at each end Of his berth and shut him
self up in his narrow state-room. Durirp

put his nose outside Of the door. He Of.

RIVER IMPROVEMENT.

Report of Capt. Joseph Bro,cn to the ST..
Louis Mcrci,Gnts' Exchange.
ROOMS OF THE RIVER IMPROVEMENT COM,
1921 G STREET, WASHINGTON, D. c.,
April H., 1873.
Geo. b. Morgan, Esq, Secretary Merchants
Exchange:
DEAR SrR: Some days ago this committee
caused to be sent, by Associated Press, a
synopsis of the present status of river i'm
provement matters, which was regularly tel
egraphed to New York as part of the asso-
ciated dispatches, but as it seems to have
died there, we feel that it will be of general
interest to the people of the Mississippi val
ley to know definitely what the
committee on commerce have decided
to recommend to Congress in the general
appropriation bill that is now duly
waiting for an opportunity to be eported to
the House. The aggregate amount agreed
upon by the committee for the i'm rovement
of the entire rivers and harbors of the
United States is little over $7,OOO.OO0, and
the proportion of that amount allowed the
Mississippi, Missouri and Illinois is 81 ,4l5,.
500, divided as follows: 81 ,070,500 for the
Mississippi river, to be expended mostly be-
G"SCu Ots AOutS uuS OIs l. duls lUT tllc VI IL
souri, river $270,O0O, and for the Illinois river
$4,000. It will be borne in mind that the
estimates of the government engineers for the
entire river and harbor improvements was
something more than $13,OOO,OOO, but the
committee did not believe the House would
pass such a bill, and, after consultation with
sundry members, it was decided to cut down
the appropriation one-half, and, as will be
ho Miccicni,,,,i riu loI -
share of the reduction, though not to the
extent of some others, and it is matter of
sincere regret that Congress cannot be made
eral appropriations for public improvements
at this time, but both political parties being
on the eve Of the fall elections, from
mistaken policy, shrink from doing SO.
If, however, the members from st. Louis
and the entire Mississippi valley will,
when the bill comes up in the House, lend
their active assistance and support in pass
ing the bill, as it will be reported, twill fur
n!sh enough money to enter Immediately up
on the permanent Improvement of the chan
mel of the Mississippi, which has already
been surveyed and plated from Cairo to St.
Paul, and the appropriations, will secure in
the future, and without effort, a continu-
ance of them until the channel of
the entire Mississippi is improved and
deepened. The committee has thus far
successfully engineered this matter, having
had access to the committee on commerce,
both as a committee and as individuals, and
will continue to exert themselves, but it
must be obvious that when the general bill
comes up in the House, it must be cham
pioned by the members of the floor, and it is
to be hoped that our members will take the
interest and give it the attention that its
great importance demands. Very respect
fully, JOSEPH BRowN, Chairman,

SILYEIc AND RES UM pTION.

Why do we not now hear the loud mouthed
saying something about the fulfllment f
their gloomy forebodings? Why don't they
cry, ~ told you so?" Haven't they got any,
thing to say about their predicted evil of q
double standard? And how comes it that
greenbacks are at only fraction less than
par with gold. and silver SO nearly at Ear
with greenbacks, and these financial prophets
have nothing to say about it? Are they, by
their silence, tacitly admitting that they were
ignorant of what they talked about, and
were wickedly, for base and selfish ends,
making false cry against a measure that is
resulting in such good, and which result is
SO emphatically giving the lie to their per-
verse pretensions?
Can it be that they believe that, under the
circumstances, silence is the best policy, and
that John Sherman will serve them, as
tool, to foil the effects of the reconciliation
of silver in their scheme to make corners on
gold when resumption is to be precipitated
upon the country? Do they really believe
GudG OuoINAdA Will 6clueSlei Iu0 new Coinage
for the purpose of purchasing silver bullion?
And. are they opposing the repeal of the re-
sumption act with the like ignorant perverse-
ness and basely selfish purposes that they
opposed reconciliation of silver? Do
they believe in, and favor John Sherman IS
construction of the resumption act, that after
he has redeemed greenbacks he can reissue
them again? Is not their pretense for re-
deeming the greenbacks based on their sud-
den squeamishness of stomach about the late
discovery of the illegality and unconstitution-
atty of their original issue? If the original
issue of greenbacks was illegal, would not
their reissue be illegal also? John Sherman
or Captain Kidd, or any other "pirate,'' to
the contrary Notwithstanding. With silver
coin all relegated, as it were, by
Sherman's plan, and with full action
on his Interpretation of the resumption law,
that he can reissue greenbacks after once re-
deeming them, how long would it be before
gold would be at a premium sufficiently high
to leave margin sufficiently broad for all
private or public pecuniary purposes of

LET Us HAVE Il STATE RIFLE ASSO-
CLIFTON.

LET Us HAVE II STATE RIFLE 1850
CLIFTON.
Since the first international rifle match at
Creedmoor, Long Island, there has been an
ever-increasng growth of public interest in
the use of the long-range rife. The Eastern
press has given all the encouragement in its
power, and the list of eharpshooters has
steadily become longer and longer. Through
out the West, too, rifle practice with the
modern arms of precision has been con-
stantly gaining in favor, SO much SO that
many of the States have rife associations
and ranges, ana at the international contest
at Creedmoor last year there were present
teams from Louisiana and PARKWAY Cali
fornia.
Here in Minnesota, where there are SO
many experts in the use Of firearms of all
kinds, it is somewhat remarkable that there
has yet been no successful effort to organize
State and local societies. We believe that
sore time ago there was an attempt made to
create rifle association, but the endeavor
appears to have been spasmodlc and to have
lapsed. The present seems to us a good
time to renew the undertaking, and the
State fair would offer an excellent opportuni-
ty for the first match. There ought to be
no insuperable difficulty in securing ground
| for range within easy distance of the CITY.
and we have no doubt that prizes would be
forthcoming sufficiently attractive to entice
r.femen from many parts of the State to
enter the contest. 70 an earnest effort to
set the enterprise afoot the GLOBE promises
its cordial support, and we doubt not that
the press throughout the State would CO.
operate heartily.
1t is not expected that we can at once
turn out many riaemen who could vie with
tae crack shots of the East, where long
range rifle practice has been for some time
reduced almost to an exact science. But
our rifemen would have the benefit of all
the experience Of the Eastern shots, and
would speedily be able to make credtable
showing, even against the best of teams or
individual experts.
Minnesota has no State soldiery to speak
OF, and rife-practice by our young men is
exactly the means by which, in case of need,
the want Of q well-organized militia would
be supplied. self-dependence, GOODNESS,
determination, are some of the qualities en-
couraged by the study and practice of long
range shooting. The physical benefits ac-
cruing to those who indulge in the practice
are many, for man must keep his eyes
clear and his nerves steady to 'get ON the

'tsesms likely to be permanent" They
perceive that the sole end and purpose of
