his usual health. Mr. Reed was born in Sharon. Ct., on the 9th of July. 1902, and remained there until he was thirty years of age. He then removed to Bethany, then the county seat of Wayne, and engaged in farming, which calling he pursued until his removal to Honesdale in ls4O. For many years he was engaged in the mercantile bus mess in this place, having various partners, among whom were Seth Powell and Friend Lasher. During the later years of his bus mess life he was a member of the firm of Beers, Reed & Co.,, lumber manufacturers and dealers. The deceased was s leading member of the Presbyterian church, hold ing the office of deacon for many years. He was strictly conscientious and upright man, and always regarded as one of the best citizens of the place. His wife died a few weeks since. He leaves no children. His property-which is sconsiderable-ls left to his sister-ln-law, Mrs. J. E. Richmond, who was brought up Tn his family as an adopted daughter.- Honesddle, (Pa). Her- ald.
 To the Editor NEws:-The Free Reading Room" in this village which has oeen Tn existence year, has been largely patronized and appreciated by the people ot the place, and feature of our village, as pleasant as it is rare, in 8 place of this size. A paper is now being circulated, to provide funds 10 continue it. As is usual in such cases, many decline to renew their subscriptions, and make complaint in re- gard to its management. One thing which has been said, and is perhaps not without foundation, is that the reading matter has 10 considerable extent, bee selected in the interest of the Republican party. If such is the case it was a capital mistake, and it's censt Quences easily to be foreseen We find on looking over the papers in the reading rt om, that of the New York dailies. ihe only Democratic one is the ''New York Sum-" Ca present from the late Editer ot the NEws.) Both parties are represented by 'he Hartford papers. Would It not be well for the management to pledge themselves to take certain of the leading papers for instance The New York Tribune, World, Times, and if thought advisable, the Herald. Instead of taking two Hartford papers, would it not be better to take. say the Hart
 ord Courunt, ahd instead of the Times, a Bridgeport Democratic papsr. This ar rangement it would seem would satisfy all and be no more than fair. One word more the two religious papers are not much pat- ronZ d, and might be advantageously dropp' in favor q say it reverently) ot he 'Spirlt of the Times."

SANTA BARBARA, March 1lth and 18th.
 Yours of Feb. 26th received yestsrcay We are having fue weather here now. though rather cool for this time of year. Fruit trees are now in full bloom almonc
 and peach orchards are beauti' 'ul, and at Q distance closely resemble mammoth beds o; piaks. As am not " ry busy to-day II give you brief description of an excursion tsok yes day with Dr Kuox We first visited the hospital about two miles distant thence north ahont five miles to a place called MOntasettu Valley. Here We called upon . friend of the doctors who owns al. extensive fruit ranch. bearing almost every variety Vf fruit trees and plants in this VI cinity. In one orchard there were ihree hundred orange trees in bearing, some load. cd 90 heavily ss to bend the limbs to the ground. They are just beginning to riIen- those that fall from the trees are very sweet and good. but the others are not fully ma tured. He has in all about twelve hundred orange trees. three hundred lemon, fifty lime i've hundred peach and one thousand almond. besides apples, pears, grimes, grapes, bla ackterries, straw berries, bananas, etc. in abundance.
 The owner of this ranch is an aged gen. tlsmsn, and the property IS in somewhat neglected condition at present. It is situal- cd in Secluded place at the terminus of the road. east side of which the mountains rise about three thousand feet above the level Ot the sea. One one side you have q grand look out on the ocean on the other ht lofty rocky mountains and through the C.non fl ,ws a strenm uf pure Water. which togsther present as grand and romantic b scenery as can be imagined. Having spent nearly two hours there, we relurDed by rather T ore circuitous route through the 6nrst farming country ever saw. Large fields ot barley and orchaI ds ut peaches and almonds in full bloom. Oue kind of fruit tree growing here is called citron, the fun ot which is in s'Z- and shape tO ihe nu,mtg melon which you have in the Eas, ou vines. The apricot, olive and pomsgranate are grown here. and the large clusters ot ban anas are indeed very inviting To look upon at least. l think 1 shall take ride out tb, re another day since I found it SO enjoyable, aB the people and the fruit are very good, end think it will pay better than 10 do notaiug. have mentioned m some of my letters, the vast numbers Of wild ge. SC that pass over Santa Barbara daily. IL seems that the numbers increase instead Of oiuin 1sh. One Of our number counted nine dDcks in one day, Of probably from one hundred to one hundred and fifty m flock. 1 am beginning to think some of home now. but ga by the yestrrtiay's pa- per the trains on the Central P cific road ore blocked near the summit, the snow said to be ''six cen feet deep. and still snow tng.' so shaIl wat till it s.:tl+s some.

dwelling of the good samaritan of the set. tiers. The school men of bis day derided him and called him Qusck. And vet be put their practice to the blush in searching out the lurking places of chronic ailments which baftled all professional cunning. The fame of his syrups and his skill were not limited by the boundarts of the Great mountain. l saw him once, and neyermorc. When a tiny boy, used to fir, qusntly 70 up aud make Uncle Daniel . visit. Wheth. CT of hunting or fishing, was the bearer of his trophies. One day as Uncle Daniel and I were fronting in Mill BrooK by that bridge near the old willow, yellow saplng then. we saw the haired ''Galen" of the painful hill. He was bent upon the r. lief of a suffering neighbor. A few days later the tongue of Q village bell counted up his valuable years. He had resigned his use- iuness only with his life, and gone to his reward. Pass up little further. To the east of that avenue of dyisg sugar naples you see patch of elders-large perhaps ss e poor mans garden. They srrouted from the green that fronted an ancient chapel. Search among the weeds and briars and you will find the granite underpinning of the ed. ihce-the only visible testimony of i:s exist ence.
 On tne west IeS tne mountain cemetery, seldom disturbed by living footsteps now :. Some of the headstones stand aslant, and others are lying pIostrate, broken by the face. Enter therein with me and go & few steps. Beneath this mound of unusual length lie the remains of Uncle Daniel. A you see, he was a man of giant height, ana it was reported that in the days of hls strongest manhood he could hold a sizable colt by his fetlock, He was the compan ion of boys-and how they lov~d him Printed stories were insipid things compar. ed with his. Unknown to himself he was a poet. His announcement. SO welcome to a boy, seems to ring in my ear, Hang np your hoes. my lads and betake you to your fish poles. for the reckoning sunrise and the song of the quail presage a rainy dsy."
 You see the skyish altitude of yonder lake: it was once the inviting resting plac, of wearied birds of passage. Sometimrs they would float in squsdrons for hours up- on It's scluded waters. On such occasions how proudly used to march behind Unclr Daniel with a waterproof across my shoul- ders-ihe victim of his rife.
 But 1 will no longer dwell upon the mo n and things of other times pertaining to th, Great Mountain. But the traveller who crosses that rugged table land, and sees it's monuments of decay and desolat:on, will know that it has history. UNDERHILL

Upon assembling this congress In p9rs9-
ance of the call for "a extra session which
was made necessary by the failure OF the
45th congress to make the need full appropri-
atoms for the support Of the government
the question was presented whether the At
tempt made in the last congress to engraiL
BY Construction, . new principle upon the
constitution, should be persisted in or not.
This congress has had ample opportunity
and time to pass the appropriation DIS,
and also to enact any political measures
which may be determined on in separate
bills by the usual and orderly methods Of
proceeding. But . majority OF both mousse
have deemed it wise to adhere to the Pfin.
ciple asserted and maintained in the last
coneress by q majority of the house OF rep
.e.entstivea. That principle is that the
honse Of representatives has the sole right
h. orieinate bills for raising revenue. and
therefore has the right to withhold an a!p-
nronriation upon which the existence Of the
may depend, unless the senate
president shall give their assent
ID snv Liquidation which the house may see ;
to attach to appropriation bills. To es-
tablish this principle is to make radical, i
ianeerous and unconstitutional changes in
he character of our institutions. The vari- !
departments of the government and the
rmy and navy are established by the con-
or BY laws passed in pursuance
hereof. Their duties are clearly defined
nd their support carefully provided for by
". The money required for this purpose
as been collected from the people, and is
ow in the treasury ready to be paid out as
,on as appropriated. Bills are passed
neither appropriations are made or not.
he collection Of taxes will 60 on, and the
lblic money will accumulate in the treas.
y. It was not the intention Of the franz
. of the constitution that any single branch
the government should have the power
dictate conditions upon which this treas.
e should be applied to the purposes for t
hich it was collected. Any such intention, t
it had been entertained, would have been !
lainly expressed in the constitution. s
That a majority Of the senate nov concurs !
| the claim of the house adds to the gravity
{ the situation, but does not alter the ques-
at issue. This new doctrine. if main
lined, will result in the consolidation of
nchecked and despotic power in the house
