THE LAND LEAGUE.
A Proclamation from the National
Land League Of the United States

BosToN, Feb. 4..--The following pro-
clamation is issued by the Irish National
Land League in the United States
TO the members of the Land League
and the American people: The crisis
has been reached in Ireland. It's not
the unexpected that happened; the sup-
preston of free speech; arrest without
bail; the darkening of the land with
spies and soldiers; coercion; the blow
before the remedy; all these are inevita-
BILE.
England moves but slowly towards
Justice. Behold her well-worn weapons.
There is new Ireland. In tho mass OF
her people, courage, patriotism, zeal,
endurance, leadership, capacity-sutii-
Gent for a time, exist. Strong, thought
! full. resolute men lead. If they are ST.
fenced, others will leap to fill the vacant
places. Ireland cries for justice. The
Land League is her voice. Englandmust
build more iaiIs before the voice can be
stitled. ~
To the outrage upon the peoples rep
resentatives; to the attempt to place
Ireland on her knees; to beat ant
scource her before righting her wrongs
to the arrest of the brave Michael Da
witt let America answer IN protest a
a fire famed upon all the hills in tina
olden time when the edict went forth
so now in every American city let tn
fire of your indignation blaze. Callpub
lie meetings everywhere at once, A
: You saved the Irish people from deaf
7 and raised them from despair, show tina
your sympathy is still with them i
/ their grand struggle for justice. ~ Z

i new branches in every place ..whel

SMALL FARMS.

The French people have more ready
in dividened possession than any other
nation in the world. 1t is not the
wealth of nation that makes the peo-
ple rich, but the general diffusion OF
wealth. This is the case i'll France.
The French are a nation of small far
mers. There are more landowners in
that country than in America. The
farms are small; the majority are under
twenty acres and q very large number
under ten. 1t may not be that is the
only reason for the money wealth OF
these people they are notably economl-
cal and thrifty. But the small farms
have something to do with it. The
farmers in some of the eastern counties
of Pennsylvania, where the farms arc
comparatively small, could well com
nete with the French in their possession
Of money wealth Almost every far.
rer has his hoard invested. These men
have habit of feeding a few head O
Z beef cattle or flock of sheep every win
ter They sell little grain but wheat
and feed their fodder and coarse grail
TO purchase stock. They make NOR
profit to the head Of stock than is mad
upon large grazing farms, and thel
: land is rich and high-priced, because
' the large quantity Of manure that
! made in feeding stock. The consumI
: ton ofmeat is continually increasin!
and with the extension of manufacture
there are more mouths TO fill eyel
! year, so that it is not probable the SUI
: ply can ever become excessive.

FAR-REACHING DECISION.

The decision of the Supreme Court OF
this State in the cases Of Saloy and
others VS.. the City Of New Orleans is
one of more than ordinary Importance,
and is not unworthy the study even OF
laymen. The suit, we understand, was
brought by plaintiffs to compel the city
to accent ten mills as the full tax per
centum due by plaintiffs under Article
2O9 ofthe Constitution limiting corpora
tons to that amount as the maximum,
the city having levied fifteen mills, tho
excess Of five mills being required, as
was set up in opposition to PLAINTIFFS
prayer, to pay interest on bonds OF the
city outstanding at the time the present
Constitution was adopted. The man
damus prayed for was refused by the
Court, Chief Justice Bermudez and JUS
tice Poche dissenting, and the Court
was similarly divided on refusal to
grant re-hearing. :.
The questions in this case are vital
and far-reaching, and too numerous to
be discussed in hurried newspaper ar
ticle. The effects of the decision, we
fear, will be deplorable, and might be
considered in advance, as OF that por-
tentous character which brings the peo-
4 pie face to face with the great fmlda-
I. mental question--Is there existing III q
government of the people the Right and
power of Selfpreservation, -Ouaehlta
Telegraph.
We arc glad TO see yonss brother Me
Cranic, supporting, as usual, that Dem
; ocratic principle which makes the vii
! Of the people expressed at tn
ballot boz, the supreme law of TIN
State, which no court should Disregard

solsure used to contain the castle and
fortress of the canton ; not such 9 castle
as princes love to revel in, nor the pala-
tial summer residence of royal retlnue,
but grand old medieval fortress with
iron-barred gateways and high turreted
walls: an arsenal and a prison. -l.., I.
It is within it's dingy interior that we
have found the subject of our story.
About the year 17-this castle con-
Atained scores of prisoners, who having
ventaredlife and all its hopes for glorl-
ous liberty had reped only the o"f'
geon and q prolhlse of death. ~, ~ ~. :. ,
Most dungeons of those times lay hi5i
den far down underground, beneath the
very foundation of the castle itself,
and many of us, in visiting them, have
CROPPED our way, with guide and flicker,
ing taper, through their tortuous pas,
sages, and crawled on our knees into
their damp and loathsome caverns.
Unlike them, the prison of this re
doubtable fortress was built above the
ground. $50.
A large quadrangular tower rose higE
out of one corner of the wall, and cas-
its gloomy shadow over the narrow
streets below. ......
In the center Of this tower was a
stone staircase, coiled around its interi
or, connecting a series of galleries ont
above the other, and leading to thu
root.
From each Of these galleries strong
iron doors opened into dark cells which
were separated by solid stone partitions
The very top gallery had no doors
only little barred windows, just larg
enough to admit food to the prisoner
inside, and to afford passage glanc
for the officer patroliug without.
The hardest criminal and the mos
dangerous OUTLAW were secured in thes
loftiest dens.
The man was first taken up to tn
roof and chen dropped down into his eel
through u small door which, trap-like
fell upon him and was firmly bolted,
Our hero, young aristocrat, vii
,, and daring fellow, had just been senter
ced to twenty years confinement in on
of these aerial cells, for having killed
, rival suitor for the hand Of Lowell

A NErGHBoRLY COMPLIMENT 'L.lI'l[s' T..

In their extra large twelve page
issue Of last Friday, our enterprlslns
copfreres Of the Advocate were 50
generous as to refer to the CAPl-
TorIAN inthe following very compIi
mentary terms;
D THE LOUISIANA CAPiToLIAN--A
TRI-WEEKLY PApER.-This is one Of
the institasfons Of our city, and de-
serves notice in the recapitulation OF
our businessinterests. 1t is nota very
common incident in the history Of the
Press, for a newspaper to open It's
columns in order to notice merits OF
rival, but we thank Heaven, that
we stand superior to that marrow pro-
fessional jealousy, which obscures
the claims Of a competitor for public
favor. Baton Rouge is big enough,
and has verge enough in her hopeful
future, to accommodate the legiti-
mate ambitions of two great papers,
and the public, and the interests OF
the Press itself, will derive advan-
, tage from healthy competition,
! which will stimulate enterprise, and
excite the public curiosity. The
g CApIToLIAN was started as weekly
$ in 1879 before Baton Rouge was the
t Capital, and it placed its banners on
J. the outer walls, by adopting a desig-
: nation, which would have had no rel
y evancy, had it not succeeded in as
L serting our just claims. It's immedl-
" ate success warranted it in extending
l. the enterprise, and it was soon en-
larged, and now appears as y Fri
Is Weekly. The CAPIToLIAN always
$. talks out in meeting, and its editorials
If are practical, yiyacious and to the
! point. 1t is a worthy coadjutor with
~ the Advocate, in the systematic agi-'
II tation Of projects Of local improve
It. ment, and enterprise. Its earnest
81 work, in restoring the Capitol to us,
Mt illustrates the value of the news
he papers, in organizing, and directing
,st public sentiment on useful enter
be prises.
!. Gen. Leon Jastremski, who is also
Mayor of Baton Rouge, is its editor,
p and it is published by w. A. LeSueur.
zee It's neat typographical appearance
nd speaks for the efficiency Of its me-
IS; chanical department which is well
)a- supplied with material for newspaper
