The Muscatine Tribune tells this
one: A six-foot, raw-b boned coun-
tryman walked into Dlllaway's
crockery store recently, and, notic-
ing the fine porcelain spittoons on
the showcase, asked the proprietor
"what them things wereP" "Those
are spittoons," quietly replied Mr..
ID. "Spittoons! What are they
for?" demanded the Granger. etc
spit'in," was the r. ply. "TO spit
in? Is that SOP" thereupon he
gathered a quart up of pure to
bacco saliva in his mouth and
elected the same ilto said spittoon.
"Well, WELL" quoth the Granger,
"something new every day. When
Pm in the city again I'll call and
spit in it again." and then walked

The case of deaf.mute COW is re.
ported by Russian veterinary
surgeon. A cow, twelve years old,
of Algava breed, belonging to a
Russian nobleman, never showed
signs of hearing, nor beloved.
Seeing the other cattle below, she
tried to initiate them by stretch
ing her neck and head, and OPEN
ing her mouth, but she could not
produce any sound. The sense of
vision of this COW was found to be
unusually well developed.

should be cut of; ond as neither side
would yield the House was still In ses-

Still Cemturing Delaware.

The acquit ;al CT Reddy Dever, who
has been on trial during the past week
tor the murder of Isaac Chase during
the election riots of 1871, is another fail
ure of Justice added TO the conspicuous
examples already furnished in connec-
ton with the same affair. Unlike the
Delaware case, on which we comment
cd few days ago, the District Attorney
did his whole duty and pressed earnest
ly for the conviction of the prisoner, Of
whose guilt no one outside the jury box
entertained a serious doubt. 1t is most
probable that the jurymen also believed
Dever guilty, and as the majority OF
them are said TO have been Republi cans,
here is no reason to suppose that party
considerations influenced their verdict.
On the contrary, 10 appears to have been
an henest verdict, based on the general
ly loose character of the testimony
against the prisoner. After eight years
It Is hard to get satisfactory evidence in
regard to a shooting affray, especially
from lot Of ignorant people, who were
too much frightened at the time to have
any clear idea of what was going on,
and. un der the circumstances, it is posi-
BILE for conscientious jnryman to hesi-
tate. 1t is none the less a disgrace to

never been avenged, and a discredit &c

THE CONTAGIOUS DISEASE BILL PASSED
BY THE SENATE.

BY THE SENATE.
WAsHINGTON, May 23-After an
other day of debate the Senate has pass
ed the yellow fever bill and adjourned
over till NJ onday. The measure receiv-
ed vote Of 81 to IL, nearly three to one.
1t was opposed among the northern
Democrats by M Messrs. Bayard, Herman
Eaton and supported on the Republican
side by Messrs Blaine and Booth, the
former of whom was most pronounced
in its favor.
The vote was really surprise to the
southern friends of the measure, for they
believed from the first that the northern
senators would grudge even the smallest
amount of money for the purpose of
making the experiment to protect the
South from The plague ana they have
been decidedly put out bv the opposition
of such prominent northern Democrats
as have been mentioned but more so by
the eDmity of Senator Morgan, Of Ala
hama. Mr.. Morgan, seeing that the
drift Of sentiment In his region was
against him, changed his tactics on the
bill and has accepted the measure last
introduced without any objection. But
some of the southern senators had doubts
about the coDstitHtionality of the gov
ernment going into the quarantine

THE PHILADELPHIA Press corrects a
rumor which it says has been put in cir
culation to the effect that the Baldwin
Locomotive Works of that city, were to
be removed to New Castle, in this State.
Whether this rumor is false or not, we do
not know; but the Press says it is, and
1t, we presume, speaks from good au-
thority. These works, as was stated in
the same journal and republished in the
GAZETTE, on Thursday, are now employ
ing 2300 men and turning out for,y-five
locomotives month. Their removal to
New Castle would be great thing for
that fine little city. The rumor must
have had some cause for its origin. We
hope it may ultimately prove to be correct
for certainly the location of those works
are inconvenient and costly, beside being
heavily taxed for the valuable and still
rapidly increasing value of the ground
which they cover, occupying as they do
several squares in that great city. All
such great works are finding it necessary
to seek cheaper locations as the city
grows up around them. Generally the
real estate they cover becomes so valu
able as to make its sale an object to ge
clear of high taxation, and enable thu
erection of works on improved plans
This will ultimately be the case with tn
Baldwin Locomotive Works, no doubt
and it may be that from consideration
of this kind by that company sprung tn
rumor alluded to.
New Castle offers great inducements
The lands within the city limits, to
good extent, are exempted from taxatio
to such works, while they can be bougl
remarkably low; with superior rive
front and wharfage and railroad track i
the rear. Such advantages are no wher,
else to be secured, except perhaps
Wilmington.

LOOKING INTO DAvENPoRT's WORK.
The New York letter of the Public
Ledger says:-''rhe charges against Com
missioner Davenport were again under
investigation to-day before Referee Ly- |
man. Stephen Mosher, a clerk in Mr.. |
Davenport's office, testified that he made |
out several thousand affidavits on which
warrants of arrest were made at last
election, and that the only evidence on
which he founded these affidavits was
the fact that the persons complained
Of held 1868 naturalization papers. He
was told to make the affidavits by Mr..
Davenport. The case is not proceeding
very fast"
1t is something remarkable that one
man should be able to swear out several
thousand warrants and make as many
arrests in one day. But it is still more
remarkable that in this free country so
many men could be arrested and locked
up, or prevented from voting on an cleo
tion day, to give the opposite party the
majority. The only causes for these ar
rests were that the voters held natural
ization papers dated 1868. What is still
more remarkable is that such as held
such papers, who were Republicans or
going to vote the Republican ticket, were
not molested, while all democrats who
held them who had not voted were lock-
ed up unless they agreed not to vote,
while such few as had voted were dis
charged without further process. Daven-
port charged the government with every
one of those arrests of course. But did
more we presume. He is U. s. Com
missioner, and Of course charged for
hearing each man whom he arrested as
u. 5. Marshal, and as he is also Clerk of
the U. S. Court as well as Marshal and
Commissioner, of course he charged for
services as Clerk, also. Davenport was
actually invested with all the authority
of a Court to do the dirty work on that
day. He was Marshal, Judge and Jury,
and he is shielded from any prosecution,
since his case can only be brought before
the U. S. Court to which he holds all the
avenues, and was no doubt given to I'M
derstand that he would never be made
to answer. Since the election the Courts
have decided that the naturalization pa
pers were all right. But there seems to
De no way to secure reparation for the
fraud by which three thousands of men
were prevented from voting, and other
thousands intimidated into absenting
themselves from the polls. This is why
the Republicans in Congress are opposed
to the repeal Of the federal election laws:
and the Republican knows it, and backs
up the fraud and would back up anv
other fraud that would lead to such re-
suits.
