death and life of men have their fixed

truth-all know that ii can not do this,
all ought to act with loving and benevo-

this exhortation should keep from eating
milk. The children Of those who cause
their families to refrain from eating milk
will be preserved to grow up; they also
will thus lengthen out their own lives,
and will escape from evil in time Of fatal
epidemics. If such persons be able also

New Hampshire VS.. Louisiana.

Az We D"Hy 1tssVos'
The telegraph announces the initia
ton of n suit in the Supreme Court of
the United States by the State Of
New Hampshire against the State Of
Louisiana, to enjoin the execution Of
the provisions Of the new constitu
ton, relative to tile payment of the
interest on the consolidated bonds.
We presume the suit is brought
| under the original jurisdiction Of the
| Supreme Court of the United States
in controversies at law and equity
between the States, or in which u
State is a party.
It will be 2 deeply interesting and
important suit, the first Of tie kind
ever brought. There have been sew
eral suits between States under this
original jurisdiction Of the Supreme
Court, but they all involved ques
tions of boundaries. We can remem
Der no case involving debt liability
which was ever brought under this
jurisdiction. There has been vast
amount Of augmentation on this sub
ject among the lawyers; many able
jurists have contended for the inris-
diction, and, az able ones, starting
with Daniel Webster, have denied
that any such jurisdiction existed. 1t
would be wise to settle the question
at once; We shrink, however, Will.

burden Of learning and logic, rs will
be- inflicted upon the reading public
by this discussion.
The last July number If the Lac
Journal Of Boston contains what
might be considered an exhaustive
dissertation on this question, written
By Gen. Bradley johnson, Of the Vir-
giuia and Maryland bar, in which The
theory Of the liability Of States to be
sued in this manner, is presented with
great force.
1t was, doubtless, the argument
which induced the State of New
Hampshire to enter upon this cam
paign or adventure Of collecting il
debt from sister State due to he,
citizens. An act Of the New Hanp-

Although previous to the conven lion
there were "many men Of many

dictated it's choice, there will be an
unanimous expression OF appreciation
forom all the heretofore opposing
factions.

Grants supporters stood firmly hy

his support from the Blaine and
Sherman forces, Notwithstanding
the determined fight which was made
TOR General Grant, whilst hope of
success remained, Conkling the lead
er and most resolutc of his support

nomination be made unanimous.
This is an indication of the feel
ing which animates the whole party,
that however much individuals may
have desired to see any particular
man receive the honor, they are will
ling to renounce their own hopes and
subordinate their wishes to the will
of the majority, for the good of all.

Der of medical experts have been
grimly diverting themselves of late
by shooting bullets through the heads

may be an open question whether a
fair inference can he drawn from the
effect of u bullet perforating dead

ating the skull of living man, the
resistance offered being hardly the
same in both cases At all events
such experiments are so revolving
that there should be probable evil
dence of their value before they are
entered upon, and it is not clear that
such evidence has been forthcoming
in the Billings trial. And even if

roots and woody stems of the plants
are used for paper, an article OF
great beauty and strength being
made therefrom. The fibre has 9
beautiful lustre and il often mixed
with silk, cotton sad wool.
As early as 1874 the United States
imported about 1000, 900, 900 pounds
OF Jute fibre and the amount has
been constantly increasing. In view
of the present and prospective de-
mand for grain bags alone, the cul.
ture of the plant in California must
prove very profitable. The coast
counties to the north of San Fran.
cisco bay, are well adapted to it's
growth, as it requires less heat than
cotton and similar semitropicsl pro-
auctions The seed sown in April
or Ma, speedily terminates, aud
grows rspidly attaining it's full
height aod blooming by July. The
stems then harden and are ready 10
October for cutting.
One. factory has been established
In the State, at Oakland, where
thousands fsacks are manufactured
from the raw material. The expense
OF cultivation are less than half that
of cotton, its profits twice IS great.
The yield ia much larger tAan that
of fax or hemp. The usual price
for tho fibre in New York has been
from six to eight cents per pound.
The subject is worthy the considera.
ton of California farmers.
