Chairman Hubbcll Calls the Kickers to a

WASHINGTON, June 23.-Representative
Hubbell, Chairman of the Congressional
Committee, addressed the following letter
to George VIM. Curtis:
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES,,
WASHINGTON, June 20, 1882.
SIR: understand q circular signed by
you has been sent to large number of per-
sons employed in the service Of the United
States, advising them TO refrain from COM
plying with the request of the Republican
Congressional Committee for contribution
to its campaign funds. In this circular you
state that Gin the opinion Of the counsel, as
members of the Republican Congressional
Committee are officers of the United States
Government, all persons making contribu-
tions to such Committee will render them
selves liable under section six, chapter 207
of the United States Statutes" lift be law
that the persons paying become thereby liza
BILE to ap'aaitl, /, being member Of Con-
gress aud Treasurer Who .e,-ivcd payment,
am also liable. am willing to meet you on
this question anywhere or at any time, and
to unite with you In requesting the President
to ask an opinion of the Attorney General.
If you desire any other action in any tribu-
nal which can give immediate consideration
Of the point, will join You in testing the
soundness of the circular and invite you 10
this mode of settlement as both more manly
and more honorable than your attempt to
confuse the action or alarm the minds of the
employees referred to. The Law is mis-
stated In the circular and the alarm you
seek to create Is without tolerance in law.
Your counsel either misunderstands or per-
verts it. Disdaining to hide behind any
cover, / challenge you to the necessary steps
TO the immediate determination OF the de-
gree Of responsibility which Is attached to
this fact and the correctness OF your circu-
lar, which distinctly deny.
Respectfully yours,

Agriculture In America.

Most prominent among the factors
that have contributed toward the extra
ordinary development and prosperity of
agriculture in the United States is, un-
questionably, the great native fertility of
soils, as yet unexhausted in the newer
States and territories, which are thus
enabled to pour out upon the East and
upon Europe the accumulated soil treas
ures of many ages. That these cannot
hold out forever, or even for years to
come, is an memorable law of nature;
and the steady diminution per acre in
the States east of the Mississippi river,
resulting in their increased inability to
compete in the growing of cereals with
the newer States. has long given warn
ing that the experience of the Old
World is being repeated on the new
continent, and that the old and ever re-
curing question is upon us of maintain
ing profitable productiveness by means
of systematic culture and returns to the
soil.
Whether this question shall be allow
ed to assume the aspect of the menace
that annually confronts the European
agriculturalist, mo manure, no crops"
or whether an ounce of intelligent pre-
vention shall forestall the heavy burdens
that will otherwise rest upon the coming
generation and its Industries, is the
issue that must largely be determined by
enlightened government action, in the
face of the already inveterate bad habits
of the vast majority of American farmers
that are. as usual, promptly adopted by
the European immigrant. The ravaging
of the virgin soils by heavy cropping
without change, or even the slightest
attempt at return, followed by the
turning ont" of the "tired" land, and
too often, by the washing away of the
the surface soil from the hard plow-sole
formed by shallow tillage, not uncom-
monty resulting in the deinitive ruin of
the land for agricultural purposes, is re-
peated more or less in every newly set
tied region. Deserted homesteads, and
melancholy old fields Scared with gull
lies, mar the face of the land in the rear
of the pioneer farmer, and impose upon
his steadier successor heavy tax, in the
way of reclamation, On soils that if ra-
tionally cultivated would not have felt
the need of manure for scores of years.
For the want of the most rudimentary
knowledge of agricultural facts and
RAAdSiPACos SdO k1ohtCAo Va OAAo tJOuth
have for three-quarters of a century
wasted nine crops of cotton for every one
made. by failing to utilize the chief pro-
duct of their fields-cotton seed-for re-
turns to the soil, which needs but little
more to maintain its full productiveness
forever Such crying evil as this would
hardly have beenallowed to exist SO long
in any country less averse to the least
semblance of paternal government with
out something more than the faint warn
ings and remonstrances uttered from
time to time in the periodical press, or
in government documents. The great
perfection attained by agricultural i'm
plements for large-scale culture under
the hands of American inventive skill,
serves but to add to the rapidity with
which the process of soil devastation is
carried forward into new felds.-Eugene

John wentworth on Calhoun AMI Ben.
ton

John Wentworth, of Illinois, delivered
lecture in Chicago recently on remin.
iscences of some great statesmen whom
he has known. In it he said OF Calhoun:
"He invited me to his residence one
evening, and he had me alone. He was
the most charming man in conversation
whom I ever heard. He spoke Of Chi
cago very Interestingly, Of which he had
derived considerable information
through his official Intercourse with the
officers OF Fort Dearborn while Seer etary
of War from 1877 to 1926. He spoke Of
the West a. the natural ally Of the
South, and Of the Mississippi and upper
lakes as great inland seas, deserving the
same governmental consideration a. the
oceanic waters. He presented me with
book containing his biography
and speeches with his COM
pliments and autograph. I
wrote narrative of the evenings
conversation and pasted it in the book,
but the Chicago fire has prevented me
from giving you the seuuctive language
of one who had been for years plotting
the dissolution Of the union TO young
and inexperienced member of congress.
I overlook Colonel Benton ON my way
had been and saw my hook, he became
extremely violent. averring that he
could tell me every word that Calhoun
had uttered. He said it was Mr.. Cal
houn's custom 10 early procure inter
views with young men and instil into
their minds the seeds Of secession, multi
fication and treason. At the close OF the
Tyler administration he went into pri-
vate life, and there he remained until he
came to the senate in December, 1646,
where he continued until his death,
March 81, 1850. heard his last speech,
and was 1t his funeral"

Polly was sorry to leave SO many behind. but
was afraid il she fingered too long she would

abe pinned them into her belt, and scampered

st. Lonis jurors have acquitted
woman who circnmstantially confessed
n murder. The porch of church was
common resort for young sweethearts
and others in the evening. Frederick
Tonsin, who lived near by, was in the
habit OF lying in wait to listen to the
conversation and watch the actions OF
the couples. He was seen, one dark
night, to steal slyly up the steps. An
instant afterward. a pistol shot was
heard. A man aud girl hastened
away, aud Tonsin was found dying.
After long search, the police identi-
fled the girl as Kitty Mulcahy; and she
said that she had shot Tonsin with a
pistol which her companion handed to
her for the purpose. This story she
adhered to until her trial, when she
pronounced il fabrication, and de-
clared that the man was the shooter.
Who he was she did not know, except
that he was a commercial drummer,
whose acquaintance she had casually
formed. The jury believed her.

A St Louis dog, recently deceased,
was property holder. His estate con-
sisted of house and lot left to him by
his deceased master. There was a
trustee, OF course; but the income was
conscientiously spent in paying for the
animals food, lodging. and attendance.
He was handsome spaniel. and was
not made vain by his wealth, but asso-
ciated freely with common dogs. At
his death, few days ago, the trustee
had him buried in costly casket, a
hearse conveying the remains quite cer-
enormously to the family cemetery.
