The Helena Herald and Independent issued
excellent holiday numbers. The former is
an eight page paper, every column filled
with matters of interest to Montana. Sever
al pages are devoted to the mining interests
of the Territory, and the showing is certain

twelve page sheet, enlarged size, and is a
mine of information concerning Montana.
Considerable space is devoted to the stock

On the Bozeman stage the other night
there were four passengers, all of the sterner
sex. When it had grown nearly dark, the
stage being then three miles from here, a
timid passenger commenced a conversation
with his neighbor, asking him if he had any
money about him. The reply being in the
affirmative, he again asked il he had arms
about him. He replied EMO" ''Hain't you
afraid to travel without ?" mo, I hain't,"
said the passenger, as he covered him with a
44-calibre Colt. Thercat the other passen-
gers jumped out of the coach, and being
seen by the driver, he stopped the coach and
fred the other, who began to wend his way
toward town. The moral is; Don't ask
questions in stage coaches in the cleaning,
or you will all get left. Yellowstone Journal.

Barker.

In a letter to the Independent Hon. j. G.
Kerley gives his opinion of the Barker Dis
trict briefly as follows:
Taken as a whole the camp has a remark
ably bright outlook, though, as above stated.
the developments are but limited. No finer
prospects Can be found anywhere. II is a
fine field for labor and small capital ju-
diciously expended. 1t would not in my
opinion be a good venture to erect large aud
expensive reduction works at this time, but ]
do not doubt that there will be a fine opening
for such works during the coming summer.
The district is abundantly supplied with
wood, water, iron and limestone-alI easily
accessible. The timber is of the best quail
ity.

A Reduction.

Owing to the unfavorable boating season,
Messrs. l. G. Baker & Co. did not receive
the bulk of their goods until late in the fall.
and as a consequence they have now q very
full stock in all the lines, while other mer-
chants are finding themselves 'short." But
in order to make room for the spring stock
they have reduced the prices on all WOODEN
goods, such as shawls, blankets, underwear.
hoods, nubias, etc. This is the time to Sc
cure bargains in those goods, and the stock
to select from is large I'D fresh. u.

MANASSAS, Va. Nav,

MANASSAS, va, May, 8, 1882.
To the editor Of the Alexandria Gazette:
You are aware that have long been in
favor of curtailment of the States obliga-
tions, by reason of the great reduction of our
material wealth through the war, and from
motives of humanity. After more careful
consideration of the ethical part of the ques-
ton i am now as firmly ofthe opinion that the
loss which we sustained in property by the
war furnishes no legal or moral reason why
We should not pay the debt in full, should
the creditors so demand, and will state my
reasons for this change of opinion. snch is
the finite nature of our mental faculties, that
at one period Of our life we may honestly
deem thing to be true or right and at
another time, with equal sincerity, believe
it to be untrue or wrong. But to persist in
acting from an erroneous opinion, when we
discover it to be such. is both sinful and
unmanly.

COUNTY JUDGES SALARY RECOVERED
Recently, in obedience to writ of manda-
mus awarded by the Supreme Court of APP
peals in the case of Neale vs.. S. Brown AL
len, Auditor, &C., that officer issued his war
rant upon the treasury in the sum of s., $50
to K. T. Daniel, jr., of counsel with James
Alfred Jones, for the petitioner.
This is one of the cases in which the coun-
ty judge was elected to fill an unexpired
term made vacant by the resignation of his
predecessor, decided by the court repeatedly
to be in conflict with the Constitution, mas
much as he could only be elected for full
term Of six years and further, that the act
of Assembly passed during such term redu-
cling his salary was likewise unconstitution
al, and therefore null and void. He was
entitled to have the difference between his
legal salary and what he actually received
during that time. A fruitless effort was made
by the Attorney Generalin an appeal to the
Supreme Court of the United States that
