River Carriage and Lake Cnrriape

lhc chicago papers announce that five large
new propellers are beng built, in preparation
Tor the business on the lakes that is to open next
spring. They are To be Of monster dimensions
none of them being under 1000 tons carrying
capacity we are told. Three of them are 10
be Of wood and two of Iron. They will carry
1000 tons each; the wooden ones will cost
Sl25W each and the iron ones Sl50,000 each.
1t is gratifying to know that the grain bust
ness on the lakes Is prosperous and that these
pew carrying steamers are required for its
accommodation. But it will strike a Western
river man that the cost of carrying grain on
the lakes must be very great in comparison
with the cost OF carrying ii on the Mississippi
river The great carriers on the lakes are ey.
pensive prcpellcrs. The great cargoes on the
Mississippi are carried in barges towed BY
steamboats, that cost out q tritle. a short time
ago the tow-boat Iron Mountain left st. Louis
for New Orleans with five barges carrying 21O,
900 bushels of corn, making a load of 1900
tons. The cost of the tow boat and the five
barges was about $4,000, or One.third the cost
of one of the monster lake propellers mention.
ed by our Chicago contemporaries, and yet the
cargo carried is nearly equal to the carrying
capacity Of four of the propellers. One of the
monster propellers will carry only about 600
bushels of corn. while the Mssippi tow.hoat
with the barges, carries 10000 bushels 1t is
stated that if there had been a little greater
depth of water In the river between ST. Louis
and Caro-, when the Iron Mountain took her
tow out, she could easily have taken three more
barges carrying 10000 bushels OF grain This
would have been as much as all the five new

The Law of Leap Year.

The Albany La,o Journak calls attention to
an important law relating to the extra day in
leap year, which business men and others
should bear IN mind. The Journal says: "As
leap year is coming it is well to know what
the law of leap year is The law, it is said,
takes no notice of parts of days, and as to the
Goth of February 1t takes no notice OF the whole
day. The 2sth and the Goth are computed as
one day. For example: Suppose a note IS
dated on the 2Sth of February, 1880, payable
one day from date. Ordinarily, it would be
payable on the 4th of March, and so it is in
leap year, and not on the ird. In Indiana the
question has recently come before the supreme
court in this respect to service of process IN
1876, the last leap year The law there requires
ten days previous service for the entry of iudg.
mcnt In the case before the court, the iudg-
ment was premature If the 2Sth and Goth was
to be computed as one day. The court said :
1t must be regarded as settled in this state that
the 2Sth and Goth days of February in every
bisseStile year must be computed and cOnsId
cred in law ~ one day The question is set at
rest by our statute, r. S, N. D. 60, s. 3, which
provides that the added day Of leap year and
the day immediately preceding, If they shall
occur in any period so to be computed shall
be reckoned together as one day. This EN-.
braces statutes, deeds, verbal or written con
tracts, and all public or private instruments

nearly 100000 oranges to the North, netting
him some $1,000, and his groves have only
within Il year or two come into bearing, so
that their product will largely increase each

But 1t was of another former citizen Of Otta,

Growers Of Orange Ridge on the 9TH INST, and
then the account proceeds:
Prof stone has twcnty-slX groves under his
management for people in the North, most of
whom have visited Florida. They pursue a
wise course IN having their groves put out and
attended to by competent person while they
hold on to their present incomes, and when

down, build their houses, and exchange their

Prof Stone has twenty-five acres in oranges of
his own. All the groves under his care are
kept IN beautiful order The largest opening
in the state, of pine land is we have reason to
believe, that at Spring Garden, all in oranges.

the attitude. The dismembered Democ.

With the firm unanimity in the demo-

The balance of political power is easily
