Immigration.

Col J b. Killebrew, Commission
er of Agriculture, in his report for
April, thus aliudes TO immigration: ::
AT no time since the creation OF
This Bureau have the prospects been
so dntteIing. More letters of in
quiry for land have been received
than ever before; more colonies
have entered the state, and the char
acter and standing OF the immi
grants are more satisfactory, they
being generally men of means and
independence. Now that European
immigrants are turning their faces
toward this county, l deeply regret
that the means at my disposal will
not permit the employment of a
resilient agent in New York. AS it
is. we shall only have to await the
filling up of all government lands
before we can reasonably expect
them to turn this way, unless fu-
lure legislation will change the
present policy. 1t is to be hoped
such will be the case, for we have
an endless amount of lands seeking
purchasers, who could, with proper
management, be secured to us. AS
it il, we are getting, principally,
good farmers, who see the advan-
iages of our climate so clearly that
hey sell to foreign eDigrants and
come to Us.

Killed by a Tack.
ST.. Louis Globe Democrat.


A curious CASE was inquested by
Deputy Coroner O'Neal yesterday
noon, the subject being Matilda
GreDzer, an eleven year-old girl
who died OF consumption at Ven
ice, Ill, on Tuesday noon. Her
parents reside at 1910 jackson
steeI, and there the remains were
found by the Deputy Coroner.
About eighteen months ago she
accidcntly swallowed a common
iron headed carpet tack. Itlodged
IN her throat, and all efforts TO re-
move it proved futile. IL occa
stoned the girl intense pain and an
noyarce, and infam nation set in
IN the throat at the point of the
Judgement. III a few weeks the
throat grew better, but a hacking
cough continued. This was kept
up almost without cessation until
about the first OF the year, when in
a fit of coughing o. unusual vio-
lence the tack was ej cted together
with a great quantity of phlegm.
From that day the girl, instead OF
r. covering, grew worse, and physi-
clans pronounced her case o. e oi
Gems mption. A fortnight ago she
was sent over 10 Venice, TO rels-
Lives, the attending ply sician rec
ommendiDg country air. The e
she grew rapidly worse .aud died,

What After Death?
Nov York Sun.


'TSe laws o. nic beyond the
event of dca b" were considered by
Andrew jackson Davis yesterday
before large audi,nce in Sleek S
Music Hall The speaker said that
the change that takes place at death
Is not in our surroundings, but H.
ourselves; 1t is from the realm Of
sense to the realm OF principle. The
most wonderful transtormation that
could be conceived of can not APP
proach the change that will come
over US at death. He had seen
what was called the apotheosis OF
George Washington in Laura
Keene's old theater, and he had
heard that extraordinary scenes in
transformation had taken place in
NIblo's Garden; but not such
changes, nor yet such change as
comes over the earth between
black midnight and broad dat light,
can convey the notion of the change
that is to come t. every man at
death. The soul could remain here.
and yet New YORK Guy would look
like an entirely different place to it
1t would seem AS though the heav-
ems Were taken Of like a roof. But
when men aLtempr IT, biiug this Ill
vine spirituality into the world and
fbrm II into religious creedS, then
it becomes, as in Beccher's and

nxysms-only th' @,the les of tenn

every created thing, But the
trouble with the world in not under

terialize everything befoIe it can be
believed. The Spiritualists, SO
called. attempt to satisfy this de
mand by bringing materiIlized
forms from dark cabinets, and, of
course, the result is a failure, be
cause the whole action has down
ward, demorulizing tendency The
sGate hereafter may be likened To
the ocean and ourselves to rivulets
running into it. What is the trouble
that this is not seen by multi
tudes, and that everything looks
black after death? Simply because
they stop at the shore of the ocean,
and are eating clans and drinking
beer. Want of principle leads men
to shake of the ills of this world
and try to run the gate of death.
How do they know that they will

pier into the Fast river, and dis
covers Immediately the Gehennal
abyss of the folly of his act. He
sees that, either in tweuty-fonr

est, help was at hand for him. The
speaker told how poor he had been.
He had lived Tor 10 g time in tins
