guns adoat to say nothing of of the shore
batteries. It is safe to say that never be-
fore had 10 guns successfully encountered
such odds. If what Ihave said be true the
northern version of our encounter with the
Monitor is utterly false. And am sustain
ed not only by all who served on board the
Merrimac and the wooden vessels of our
little squadron and the thousands who
viewed the battle from tho neighboring
shores, but also by the captain of the Min
nesota. In his report to the department
he says in effect that seeing the Monitor
silenced and withdrawn from the battle
and his own vessel at the mercy of the
Merrimac he had nearly completed his
preparations for abandoning and burning
the Minnesota, when, much to his joy, the
Merrimac returned to Norfolk 1t may be
as we'll to add that in her encounter with
the Monitor the Merrimac did not sustain
anv material injury, while I think an in
the Monitor will show that her turret would
med by the Nerrimac.
The last demonstration by the Merrimac
was against federal feet of eight or ten
vessels, the Monitor among them. They
were bombarding Seawell's Point. under the
eye, as we heard, of Mr.. Lincoln himself,
then on visit to Fortress Monroe. We
steamed down from Norfolk and offered
battle, when the whole fleet made haste to
huddle under the guns of the fortress. We
sent in and cut out two transport briggs un-
der their very noses, but the Monitor let
slip the splendid opportunity of driving us
back to Norfolk second time.
We were much blamed by our people for
destroying the Mernmac when we did. After
the evacuation of Norfolk by our land forces
no other course remained to US. We could
not go to sea nor up the James river. I'm
less the vessel had been destroyed her SUI
render would have been mere question of
time. With the enemy in possersion of
Norfolk We would have been speedily
starved into submission.

A BosToN journal now states that the
eastern furniture manufacturers are seri-
ous]y troubled at the scarcity of black wal
nut timber. They allege that the whole
supply in the United States has become en-
tirely inadequate to the demand; that the
difficulty Of obtaining this wood, which is
now SO popular, is brought sharply home;
that the questions arise, "What is to be
done in the future, and to what sections are
tie dealers to look for supply?" That
these are serious questions is evident from
the fact that the last year the price has in
reased Is per cent. Still, even at these
dyanced figures, it is said to be almost i'm
possible to secure the needed stock. Afew
years since in the west manufacturer
could purchase 10000 feet of one dealer;
now he must journey from town to town
picking up few thousand feet wherever
be may chance to find lot for sale. He
considers himself fortunate If he obtains
the amount he needs at almostany cost. In
fact, if he does not ''sit down" on q lot the
moment he sees it, soms one else will
jump in and sna9h it away from him.

AT the late NEE ting of the bankers of the
United States at Saratoga, 10 hn THOMPSON
of New York, a veteran, now retired from
active business, sent an article warning
against a future smash. He was not able
to predict when it will come, but reminded
his profession Of the old rule of panic
every 10 years; since 1857, however, this
rule has not held, and in the increased se-
curity "f modem banking, probably the
cycles of prosperity would span 20 years.
Speaking generally of the business outlook,
MIR. Thompson said: "At present there is
but one alarming indication of trouble, and
that is in the number and magnitude of new
enterprises, involving the issue of millions
on millions Of obligations. In 1912, and
for half of 1873, this same sign of coming
Trouble Was apparent, but to a fractional
extent as compared with the present."

SOME of the big newspapers, notably the
New York Herald, have made themselves
ridiculous by atfectation Of superior med
ical and surgical knowledge Of the presi-
dents situation and requirements. The
Herald asked why is he not further ad-
vanced towards recovery" in response to
which the New York Tribune satirically re-
spends: 1t is simply because he was handed
over to surgery instead of journalism. It
is too late now to remedy the mistake, but
it ought never to be permitted to happen
again. Lett be understood hereafter that
when public man receives hurt or needs
medical care, he is to be taken to the near
est newspaper Office to be treated according
to the rules of good journalism" If this
treatment should not result in immediate
recovery, it would be we'll to have the CO.
operation Of such eminent surgeons as Mrs.
DIR. Edison and Mrs. DR.. Jane G. Swishelm.

QUEEN VICTORIA must be set down as
decidedly opposed to the latter day idea OF
woma&'s rights, since she authorized her
physician, Sir William Jenner, to remove
her name as patron of the International
Medical Congress, which met in Lond on
last week, IF lady doctors were admitted
to the medical meetings." And SO forty
three properly qualified lady practitioners
issued solemn protest against the outrage,
which protest, in the sententious language
of the report, chad no effect" The wo-
man doctors were excladed, in Difference
to the woman sovereign. 1t is evident
from these facts that the 'empress of India"
has no use for the Mrs. DR.. Edsons, who
seems to have the care of distinguished
patients in the United States, and whose
oracular sayings are published in all the
papers, as coming from high medical au-
thOrity.

10 the Editor of the Pioneer Press.
DULUTH, Aug 13.-For the benefit Of 9
very large Ass of your readers I wIuld re-
quest that you publit the following extract
from circular issued by the Hon. Comnais~
s;oner of the general land Office at Washing
TOD, under date of August 8, 1881, and di-
recied to registers and receivers of all United
s!ates land Offices:
''You are further advised that circulars issued
by any attorneys stating that officers and sol
0iers of the late wal who were ho1orably dis
charged, etc are entitled to 16O acres Of gov
crnment land under the homestead laws, whicl,
can be entered by an agent or attorney for the
soldier arc deceptive and false, aud are calcu
lated and Intended to impose u: Oh and mis-
lead the persons to whom they are address ID .
You will inform all such persons that actual
residence upon and Improvement and cultiva
ton Of lands entere under the homestead law
is required by soldiers, and that homestead en-
tries made by soldiers without personal resi
tence and improvement Elk months after the
tilirg of a homesto. doclaratory statement are
illegal and fraudulent"
In this come ,tion would like to quote the
following section from the Revised Statutes Of
the United States:
Section 23O9. Every soldier, sailor, marine,
officer or other person coming within the pro-
visions of section 23O4, may, as we'll by al
agent as in person, enter upon sEch homestead
by fling q decaratory statement, as in pre-
empticn cases; tut such claimant in person
shall within tue time prescribed (six months)
make his~acual entry, commence settlements
and improvements on the same, and thereafter
fulfil all the requirements of the law
The instruction from the general land Office
to local officers for executing the provisions OF
this section are Pa fOIlOWs.
Should the party present his declaration
through IN agent as authorized by section
23O9, said agent must produce duly execut
Ell power OF attorney from the principal d.
string to make the entry, who will be bound by
the selection his agent may make the same as
though made by himself. Whero the part,
has failed to make entry within 8 months from
the date Of filing, he is moi thereby debarred
from making entry of the tract filed for, unles-
some adverse right has intervened; and if SO lie
may enter some other tract that is still vacant
As section 23n9 embraces tho only provis-
ion in the acts of congress modifying tho priv
ileges of the homestead law, for the benefit OF
the soldiers and others who served the country
during the late war, whereby the services OF
an agent can be employed at the inception OF
an original homestead entry, it will be clearl.
seen, from the above quotations that the only
act an agent can do is simply to file, in a loca
Office, the homestead declAratory statement

Mr.. JOHN j . KNOX, cont oller of the
currency, in his address to the bankers,
gave some of the results of his efforts to
ascertain the proportion of checks to cur
rency paid into the national banks on a
given day, the 30th of June last. The total
receipts of the banks on that day were
S2S4 ,0C0, COO. OF this immense sum, checks,
drafts and clearing house certificates
amounted to over IS per cent paper money
to 4.6 per cent. and gold and silver the rest.
The larger and more commercial the city,
the higher the proportion of personal paper
to currency; thus the New York city banks
took in 98.7 per cent. of checks, etc.

SOME idea of the business boom at Win
nipeg may be obtained from the fact that
property has recently been sold at the price
of $3.50 per front foot. This would be
high price in cities of ten times its popula-
ton, but in Winnipeg everything is largely
prospective. There is All immense extent
of country that may eventually become par
TALLY tributary to that point, but at present
everything is involved in uncertainty.

ssTHE UNFINISHED PRAYER, "

OF my daughter, kneeliug bending
Ger her folded finger tips.
'Down to sleep-to Sleep" she murmured
And the curly head dropp ID low

''You can say it I'LL know"
s<Pray the Lord"-the words came faint
Fainter still-"My soul to keep!"
Then the tired head fairly nodded,
And the child was fast asleep.
But the dewy eyes half opened
When clasped her to my breast,
And the dear voice softly whispered,
Mamma, God knows all the rest"
Oh, the trusting, sweet coniding
OF the child heart! Would that
Thus might trust my heavenly Father,
He who hears my feeblest cry.

It is estimated that one third of the sacks and
four-fiths of the pouches used by the Canadian

the responsible persons alleged to have attead-

THERE is {. marked increase in the mum.
bers of failures. This is called "a tempor-
ary luctuation of the business pulse Of
the country" Possibly tits, but it is also a
warning, added to many others, against
gambling, speculation, undue extension
of credit, and extravagance of any form.
pan;cs and revulsions are not preceded by
bands ofmusic, ringing of bells and firing
of cannons. Their approach is great deal
more stealthy but mono the less obvious.
