The Public Domain.

The annual report of the General
Land Office has been handed to the Sec
retary of the Interior. 1t shows that
during the fiscal year. ended June 80
last, 9,333,353 acres of public lands
were disposed of, and 9,4S4,996 acres
were surveyed, in addition to 734,591,-
236 acres previously surveyed. The to-
tai number of acres of the public do
main still unsurveyed is about 1,0S1 Co.,
OC0 acres. The dispOsals were mainly as
follows: Homestead entries, $3.50, Ill
acres; timber culture entries, 2,766,574
acres: cash entries, 622,574 acres Gnclu-
ding 165,996 acres entered under the des-
ert land law; grants to railroads, 27S,334
acres; swamp lands patented to states,
1888 acres; other grants to states, 1885,
1892 acres. The amount of land surveyed
the last fiscal exceeds by 414 769 acres
the total area surveyed in the preced-
ing twelve months, and while the report
shows falling off of some 1900 acres
in cash sales, state selections, scrip To-
cations, and lands patented for railroad
grants, the increase in area taken up by
settlers under the homestead and timber
culture laws has been sufficient not only
to counterbalance this falling off, but
to make the aggregate dispOsals for the
year greater by 647,2O4 acres than the
total for the previous year. The increase
in homestead entries was 841,7O0 acres;
and in timber-culture entries, 896, ,139
acres. Owing to existing laws for the
disposal of public lands for hOmesteads
and timber-culture, it is shown that
during the last fiscal year, with larger
disposal of land, there were received
from all sources 81, 1884, less by $780,
41O than the amount received during
| the fiscal year ending June 30, 1878.

The Wrecking Middle.

A cabinet meeting was held at Wash
ingtOn last Tuesday, at which most of
the time was occupied in discussing
questions of constitutional and inter
national law i'm connection with the
subject of the proclamation recently is
sued by the Canadian government per-
mitting American vessels to come to the
relief of Cananian vessels i'm the waters
of the Dominion only when danger or loss
OF life or cargo is absolutely imminent.
A law now upon our statute book permits
canadian vessels to enter our waters
freely and render assistance to American
vessels in distress under any circum-
stances and to any extent. 1t was sug-
gested that the President should declare
by proclamation, that the privileges of
Canadian vessels in our waters shall be
precisely the same as those accorded by
the Dominion authorities to American
vessels, and no greater, but the Cabinet
were divided in opinion as to the pow
er of the President, under our existing
law, to issue qualified proclamation
of the nature above indicated, and at
the close of the discussion the whole mat
ter was left undetermined.

NORTHERN TRIBUNE,

WEDDING BELLS.

eieo. b. NTcAulay and Miss Tillle Cloe-
bel-Their Reception at the Town
Hall Wednesday Evening.
One of the most successful parties that
has ever been had in our town was that
of the reception given on Wednesday
evening last by Mr.. George B. McAulay,
on the occasion of his marriage to Miss
Tillie Goebel, one of Cheboygan's best
known young ladies and a general favor
lite. Less than three years ago Mr.. Nc
Aulay, then one of our tOwnsmen, went
to the mining regions of Colorado to risk
his fortunes with the pioneers of Lead
vile and Silver Cliff, there undergoing
the hardshipS incident to such a life.
Fully alive, however, to the requirements
of such times and such opportunities, he
was up and doing, and soon took a fair
place among the leading citizens in that
country. He made early and judicious
investments which were in every in
stance signally successful, SO that in
the short time above named, he returned
to his old friends of this county well
supplied with the goods of this world.
But the best part of our story is that
through all of his vicissitudes and for
tunes George never forgot his old home,
and the one he had left behind, and at
the earliest moment came to make his
promise good.
The reception was given at the Town
Hall. Invitations had been extended to
upwards of three hundred, but owing to
the exceedingly unfayOrable weather
many from distance were prevented
from being present. AS it was a large
and most pleasant company assembled,
dancing was participated in until sup
per, given at the Douglass House, was
announced, and here we may just OBJ
serve that the highest anticipatiOns
were more than realized at the hands of
Mr.. Douglass. Ample arrangements had
been carefully made and the tables fair
ly grOaned beneath the luxuries provided.
After supper dancing was again INDUCED
in and at late, or rather, early hour,
one of the most enjoyable gatherings
that has ever been had in our midst,
broke up.
The happy couple left on Thursday
morning Uia the inland waters, eu route
for New York and Washington, thence to
their western home, carrying with them
the good wishes of all here, and
the express invitation to visit us
whenever convenient. Further than
this, we earnestly hope that every adven
ture with which Mr.. Macaulay becomes
identified may be similarly prosperous.
that he may be spared long and useful
life.
"And when old time leads him to his
end, goodness and he fill up one monu-
ment." ..

An nlmportanI Vote,

A report hes been received at Wash
ingtOn that it is the intention of Chas
Ell. Voorhis, member of Congress from
the Fifth New Jersey District, to resign
He is a banker and has recently become
insolvent. He was elected last fall by
small majority, in district that has
heretofore been Democratic, and if he
should resign, Democrat would un-
doubtedly be elected in his place. In
that event, the representation of New
Jersey in Congress would be three Re-
publicans and four Democrats, and in
case the election of the next President
was thrown into the House, New Jerseys
vote would give the Democrats a major
ity of two. AS the states now stand
they ere tie, counting Indiana, in
which De La Matyr has the casting vote
as Democratic state. As Mr.. Voorhees,
vote is very important one, he will
doubtless be disuaded from resigning.

The New York Election

The official canvass of the New York
state election began last Tuesday and
would not be completed until yesterday
or to-day. So far as the result Of the
canvass has been heard from, it is favor
able to the Republican ticket. The New
York Sun, an Independent journal, the
sympathies of which have not been with
the Republican party says: "The official
returns from about half of the counties
show slight Republican gains over the
previous estimates, enough to indicate
that the vote for lieutenant governor
will be very close, and that the Republi-
cans may have carried the remainder
of the state ticket, except engineer and
surveyor. 9zrts5s'

A New. Steamer for the Detroit and
Mackinac ROeHe.


The Detroit Post and Tribune says the
upper cabin to the Cleveland line steam
er now on the stocks at Wy,ndOtte, and
which rumOr says will run lext season
between Detroit and Mackimc, will be
1873 feet long, and contain sc large state
rooms, besides four parlor staterOOms.
The general outline of the Interior ar
rangements of the craft will be modelled
clOselytafter the style of the eastern
steamers. As on lake steamers general
ly, the forward part of the upper cabin
will not be used for dining room pur-
poses, but instead, a large dining room
will be located below the main deck aft.
Around the sides of the dining room, as
per eastern custom, there will be 30
berths. These, together with the cabin
accommodations, will give the boat
sleepiug room for nearly if nOtquite 200
passengers. The kitchen and pantry
will also be located on the main deck and
adjoining the dining room. On the main
deck aft will be the ladies cabin, con-
tanning six state rooms and the usual
toilet rooms. Social Halr will form
one of the features of the main deck, the
same as on the steamer Grace Mcmillan.
The clerks office will be at one end of
the ladies' cabin, and the stairway de-
scending to the dining reom on the
other. The stewards Office will be abaft
one of the paddle-bOxes. A smoking
room for gentlemen is also to be a fea-
ture of the main deck. In the grand
salon there will be no distractions ssuch
as hog posts, superfOus stairways, etc.
These are to be done away with. The
only stairway will open to the right and
left, at the forward end of the after cab
in, and facing the box around the ma
chinery.
A good part of the upper cabin was
purchased ON Lake Champlain, and was
formerly part of the steamer AdriOnic.
1t will be heightened out several feet to
the above figures, and is said to be very
elegant.

Singular Desc rtion of a Vessel at Sc

Singular Dissection of a Vessel at Sea.
A Philadelphia telegram to the daily
press says that last Tuesday Capt. Fla
herty of the steamer iceland, arrived
from Antwerp, and reports that on Nov.
s he picked up the bark Royal Arch, of
Sunderland, which had been abandoned
by the crew. The bark, when discovered
by the iceland, was loaded with salt and
general merchandise, her sails masts
and rigging were all in proper shape.
She had but two or three inches of water
in her hold, and her pumps were in
good working order. Capt. Flaherty
could not tell from what point the bark
hailed or what her destination was, and
no reason can be assigned for her aban-
donment, by her own crew. A volunteer
crew was put on board of her, and Capt.
Flaherty directed his officer to take the
bark to New York.
