PRENrIS ON SORGHUM.

Some sweet bills get into the Legislature,
and the Topeka correspondent Of the Atehi-
son Champion thus disposes Of Bennyworth's
sorghum bill: II is well known that the
Ciampios has been from the first a warm adj
vocatc Of sorghum. While Others, including
the Washington correspondent of the Champ-
sop. iccred ut the enterprising lie Due, the
Ciampioa itself boldly proclaimed its faith in
the possibility Of making sugar from sor-
ghum cane, aud has joyfully hailed every
fresh evidence that strengthened its faith.
There is such thing, however, As too much
Of good thing. Mr.. Bcnnyworth. OF Paw
nee. the leading sorgo-sugar maker In the
state. has introduced bill i'm the House pro-
viding that the State shall pay bounty of
500 on each 100 pounds OF serge sugar
manufactured in the State from the crop of
1850. and $50 for each 1900 pounds manufac-
tured from the crop OF 1881 SO. 200 to be APP
propriated. We like sorghum. but this bill
is n .sswee,ener.- II seems 10 be PROPOSE
ton for the State to buy Mr.. Bennyworth's
sugar now on hand. at ten cents per pound,
and his next crop at i've cents pound. No,
gentlemen of the Senate and House, this
won't do. Sorghum is its own reward.

GARFIELD AND INaERS0LL.

When Gen. Garfield was first nominated
to the Presidency, he was called upon by
Col. Robert G. Ingerso,l in behalf of the Lib
eral Association, who were little afraid
that Garfield was not sound in his orthodoxy
or rather little too sound. Going direct
to the General, Ingcrsoll said: 81 want to
know, General, just what your belief is as to
the right of each man to believe as he has q
MIND to- Garfield answered: 'That Is
easily stated. Ibclieyc have right to be.
lievc in the Christian religion if want to,
and that man who does not so believe has .
full political right to his disbelief niger
soil grasped Garfeld's hand and calculated
s.;hat's it -! that's it! agree with you. If i
man is So fool enough to believe in tlt
orthodox religion, why say, let him; ant

do, why let him ~. y. Timer.

WILMOr, Feb 8, 1881.
EDS. COURIER: - Situated in Richland
township near the beautiful Big Dutch creek.
II miles northeast Of Winfield. Is Wilmot p.
O., which same is presided over by the ven
cradle Mr.. Mcpherson. Near NcPherson's
house is what Is known as natural well, 40
feet deep. To the cast Of McPherson's house
q quarter OF mile is another natural well.
ard near the last named one Is j. Y. Curtis
store. Mr.. Curd, wishing TO utilize the well
near his store and to obtain water, employed
two Of McPherson's boys to go down in the
well and clean it out. When the boys went
to the bottom of the well TO their surprise
they found large cave. Alter making the
discovery the boys assembled, procured torch
es, again descend d to the bottom OF the well
and found large cave hewn from the solid
rock. 80 yards long, 40 yards wide and y feet
high. The news soon spread, about twenty
men arrived, and then commenced general
exploration. They found, rs above stated,
q large cave, and strewn over the floor were
skeletons OF animals and men. In the center
of the cave is a large pillar about Il feet in
circumference; this pillar, IL is supposed
was intended as support TO the ceiling. and
is covered with hierogiyphics. AT the foot
OF the pillar is large spring; the water from
the spring flows to the west side Of the cave,
where it enters large tunnel that leads by
Mr.. McPherson's house down the creek
ANON. the relies obtained from the cave and
on exhibition at McPhcrson's are the petri
fled body of man 10 feet high, one larg,
stone ax-wcight, 30 pounds. and the head
Of a mastodon with one tusk attached nine
feet long. There is great excitement al
present IN the neighborhood over the find
and people are nockins in from all direcfion'
