)fitZ John Porter has addressed a
communication to Senator Sewell and
Representative Bragg in connection
with his appeal to Congress for such
Legislation as will enable the President
to re-nominate him te position and
rank in the army of the United States
of which he was SO uni ustly deprived.
He says:
I cannot doubt the result of this
appeal to Congress for special legisla-
tion. Four ex Presidents of the United
States, after careful examination of
my case, have joined in my vindica-
ton. Public men OF all parties, law
yers, and jurists of national fame, the
press with large accord. historians,
European and national, distinguished
military authorities at home and
abroad, including the late General of
our armies, who, after giving months
to the careful investigation of my case
generously and justly revoked his pre-
viously expressed opinions, and concur
in pronouncing me wholly innocent
and finally, my companions in arms,
who have ever been unfailing defend
ers, found their Judgment, faith and
fidelity rewarded by the decision of
the Board of Officers whose military
knowledge and personal character has
never been questioned, and who, after
the most careful deliberations, have
reported that my conduct was obedi-
ent, t,subordinate, faithful and judlcious.
1t saved the Union army from disaster
on the 10Th of August, 1867. Surely |
may safely appeal to the Congress of
my country for the justice so long de-
terred.
Conscious that there is no act in my
military life but what was performed
for honor, integrity, and the union of
our country, and especially in the
events of August, 1862, that, as the
Advisory Board declared, my conduct
was not subject to criticism, much less
deserving of censure or condemnation.

BY the provisions of the Pond act
the dealers in Intoxicating liquors have
thirty days from May 1st (the day OF
the taking effect of the act) in which
to pay the tax and file the bond re-
quirad thereby, and most of the saloon
men are taking advantage of the delay
afforded, hoping that the Supreme
Court will have passed upon the ques-
ton of tie constitutionality of the act
before the expiration of that time. A
test case has been made, and the 23d
of May fixed as the time for arguing il
before the Supreme Court, and it is
thought it will be decided by the 1st OF
June.

THE New Lisbon Buckeye State, and
other Republican papersin the XVIIth
Congressional District in the interest
of Judge Laubie, are after Majah "
Mckinley with sharp sticks. They
assert that Mckinley two years ago
promised that he would not again be a
candidate for Congress if Judge Laubie
would retire from the contest then.
This charge Mckinley denies, where
upon the papers opposed to giving him
a fourth term publish the atfidavits OF
seven or eight credible witnesses who
testify that he did enter into such an
agreement. Let the dance proceed.

THE Republican State of Michigan

its population, while Democratic Glor
gia has but 2,517 saloons, or one t."

Wheeling Nv. Va.) Register remarks !:

West Virginia, that it has a larger
proportion of population to each deal

State inlthe, Union. With her great
Democratic majority, and her anti

The Great Comet.

The comet lately discovered by 8
young astronomer of Albany, is ex-
pected to be visible to the naked eye
about this time, and if it fulfills hal
the promises made for it, we may ex.
pect soon to behold a celestial spectacle
such as has not been equaled in many
years. This comet, although 100000
600 miles from its perihelion, which it
will not reach for three months, shows
a bright tail and starlike nucleus. The
inference is fair that the comet is a
very large one, and when it gets into
our neighborhood it will present a
magnificent appearance.

We copied last week. from an ex-
change q bill which was before the late
session of the Legislature, and which
it was claimed had been enacted into
law, transferring the settlement OF
claims for sheep damaged and killed by
dogs from the County Commissioners
to the Trustees of Townships. The
Warren Chronicle is informed by Rep.
resentative Laird that the bill only
passed the House and not the Senate
and is therefore not law, and the old
law continues in force.

Fire Racine, wis.

A frightful fire visited the flourish
ing city of Racine, Wisconsin, on Fri
day night, which destroyed a vas'
amount of property. Seven blocks
were burned over, forty-four buildings
and 10, 600, 900 feet of lumber were con
sumed. This loss figures up abou
three-euarters of million, on which
there was about quarter of a million
insurance. That part of the city tina
is in ashes was the oldest and least or
namental, being largely composed o
inferior buildings, with here and thert
a fine one. -:

the bill to prohibit Chinese immigra-
ton, which is not essentially different
from the one he vetoed only in con-
fining the time of prohibition to ten
years instead of twenty. Fer the

vent the Celestials from pursuing hap.

Manifesto of the Land League.

The following manifesto of the Land
League was adopted this afternoon at
q hurriedly summoned meeting at
Westminster Palace Hotel:
To the People of Ireland:
On the eve of what seemed bright
future for our country, that evil desti-
ny which has apparently pursued us
for centuries, has struck at our hopes
another blow which cannot be exag-
gerated in it's disastrous consequences.
In this hour of sorrOWful gloom we
venture to give expression to our pro-
foundest sympathy with the people of
Ireland in the calamity that has be-
fallen our cause through this horrible
deed, and with those who determined
at the last hour, that the policy Of con-
ciliation should suppAant that of ter
rorism and national Hstrust. We ear
nestly hopesthat the attitude and ac-
tion of the Irish people will show to
the world that an assassination such
as has startled almost to abandonments
Of hope of our country's future, is
deeply and religiously abhorrent to
their3eeling and instinct. We appeal
tdAayou to show by every manner of
expression that, amidst universal
feeling of horror which this assassina-
tion has excited, no people feel SO deep
detestation of its atrocity or so deep
sympathy with those whose hearts
must be scared by it, as the nation
upon whose prosperity and revIving
hopes it may entail consequences more
ruinous than those that have fallen to
the lot of unhappy Ireland during the
present generation. We feel that no
act that has ever been perpetrated i'm
our country during the exciting strug-
giles of the past fifty years has SO stain
cd tha name of hospitable Ireland az

says:
John 1. Davenport claims that he
has discovered who wrote the famous
Morey letter. He has been investi-
eating the matter for some time, and
claims that he has unraveled the mys-
terry. He says the letter was written
by Colonel Hadley of this city, Re-
publican who supported Hancock, and
that the Democratic Executive Com.
mittee were deceived into believing it
to be genuine. The story told by Da-
venport is not very clear, and he does
not ack it up with any evidence. 1t
is not received with much credit, and
not much interest is felt in the alleged
revelations.
