WELLS.

\ Washington dispatch received yesterday
states that Congressman Daegctt, of Nevada
is about to introduce a bill in the House for
the encouragement Of ~aGteslan we'll boring in
The Western States and Territories. No NOR"
useful legislation could be proposed, and if
Congress will but pass a bill having for lis
object the promotion of artesian we'll enter
prlses the most important section Of the Union
will be substantially benefited. State and
Territorial Legislatures have several times
offered a certain amour of money to those
who should open a flowing well, but no sufi-
cient inducements have yet been offered to
warrant an energetic attempt to discover one.
The Legislature OF this Territory with
whole-souled magnarr nifty, offered a bonus
of one thousand dolla 3 to those who should
succeed in this particular. but as no provision
was made for the parties in case Of a failure,
and as one thousand uUIlars would scarcely
pay for the transportation of the necessary
machinery, no one was sufficiently daring TO
undertake the enterprise. The sinking of
artisan wells is a matter which properly
comes within the do brain Of Congressional
legislation. The discovery OF flowing wells in
many parts of the country which at present
are not worth prompting, and which are
allowed to remain unclaimed, would at once
give a property value to the lands so improved,
and the government would find its enterprise
profitable as well as of public benefit, since
the money expended in digging the wells
would be returned in the shape Of money
paid for the privilege of presmpting. In
many cases, too, State and Territorial Legis-
Iatures are financially unable to incur the
necessary expense, even though success were
assured.

GRANT TO WITHDRAW.

Murat Halstead yesterday telegraphed 10
his paper from Washington as follows respec-
ting Presidential prospects: There is every
prospect that the Grant Presidential boom
will not last longer than two weeks from the
present time. 1t promises to end politically
and finally at the Pennsylvania State Conver-
ton next week. 1t is reliably learned here
that some of Grantis most intimate friends in
Philadelphia have authority from him to act
in the premises and they will withdraw his
name from consideration as a candidate
of the Pennsylvania convention where there
will be delegates from several counties in
structed for Grant. This will give his friends
an opportunity to speak out on the subject.
They decline to enter into a contest for the
position and of late it has become very ap-
parent to them that it wonld be impossible
for him to secure the nomination without a
contest. Halstead also quotes James r.
Young, a Grant man. as saying that Sherman
has been doing such stalwart work in his own
campaign as to have alarmed Blaine's follow
ers and supporters. and that It is expected
Blaine will devote himself t, getting the
Grant votes, should Grant be withdrawn
from the canvass.

that he has not yet heard of any serious riot
at the point mentioned, and asking for orders

ton of peace. Other kilograms received by

1t is evident that there is cropping out
among Republican leaders here considerable
worrimeut over the strife in some localities
for the first blood" in the Presidential race.
Many Thoughtful men Of the party are troubled
about it, and do not hesitate t. express Their
fears. unless personal qualrels can be com.
posed. The accounts from several counties in
Pennsylvania are not encouraging TO them, for
they show that a very bitter contest is being
wased between The Grant and anti Grant
wings of the party. The p%uarrels, Of course.
extend to Washington, since it is well under
stood that Senator Cameron is leading the
Grant campaign, and his enemies allegc that
lie is making tremendous efforts to have his
STATE declare unanimously that way, We
hear from many counties that this spirit has
caused d reaction, resulting in strong movet
nents for Blaine or Sherman. Some of the
shrewGest politicians in the State have lately
taken ground against a committal of the del
egation to ;hicagO in favor Of any candidate.
This advice has also been sent from here no.

fair to be troublesome to the Republican

dates but upon the party.

triumph i'm the Maine case Mr.. Blaine's
friends feel greatly encouraged to make the
fight against the alleged dictstIon OF Cameron

to Senator Thurman at a reception in the

night. The Senator-elect was poetical, in

of the world, and where we can pluck and
