An Advertisement for the Northern

New York, July 15.-The report
published that President Willard, of
the Northern Pacific had issued an
order that the company's lands west
OF the Missouri River should be sold
only to actual settlers in quantities
not to exceed 160 acres, is wholly un-
true. The Directors Of the company
long ago resolved that purchasers
could buy to the extent of $50 acres,
or an entire section, if a guarantee
were given for immediate cultivation,
the intention being to secure cultiva-
ton and prevent large tracts from
being absorbed and held by specula-
tors.

WHEELING, (W. Va.), July 13.-
In the Sciota investigation to-day
Pilot B. J. Long, of the Lomas, the
boat which sunk the Sciota, testified
that he had never before steered a
boat from Wheeling to Steubenville.
Engineer McCann testified that Long
got the signals for the management of
the boat all mixed up and gave him
wrong ones.
In the investigation, to-day, as to
the cause Of the Sciota disaster, the
testimony was conflicting as to
whether the pilot was drunk.

INTERNAL REVENUE.

How the Democrats will Prolong the
Session.-What the Country Wants on
the Sugar Question.
WASHINGTON, July 15.-It is said
that there is an understanding among
the Democrats to prolong the debate
on the Internal Revenue bill in the
hope of inducing the Republicans to
abandon the bill for this session, and
go before the country this fall with
out having reduced taxation. All
the Democratic Senators who can
talk Oh the tariff bill will make
speeches on the bill, and may even
then debate along for weeks, there
being no previous question or any
other restriction on debate in the
Senate.
The following circular is being ex-
tensively circulated here by import
ers: "Several reasons why the sac
charine strength claimed for Senator
Morton's Sugar bill should be stricken
out:
First.-1t will largely defeat the
object aimed at, to-wit: The aboli-
ton of the Act of 1876, for while the
repeal takes off 25 per cent, the po-
lariscope clause-for that is what is
meant by ascertaining the saccharine
strength, increases the duty from /
to J cent per pound on large guam
tity of imported sugars.
Second.-That this is its intent is
proven'by the fact that this clause Of
the section is identical with a bill in
troduced in the House of Represen-
tatives at this session of Congress by
Representative Gibson, of Louisiana.
Third.-Aside from Louisiana no
one asks for the polariscope as a
method of assessing duties on sugar.
That portion of the sugar trade who
formerly advocated it have long since
abandoned it, and the only plans now
proposed by the sugar importers and
refiners are either single rate oi
duty on all raw sugar, or the ad yalo
rem plan.
Fourth-The proposal to intro.
duce the polariscope would be bit.
terly opposed by a large proportion
Of the importers and refners, while
the entire body of dealers in sugar
including these interests, would vel
come the simple repeal of the law O
1876.
Fifth-The Committee on WAY.
and Means of the Forty fourth, For
ty-tifth and Forty sixth Congress
after repeated and thorough investi
CATION, have declined to recommend
a polariscope, and bill containing
this clause would not be likely t,
pass the House.
Sixth-The whole question o
methods of assessing duties on suga
will be considered and reported o.
by the Tariff Commission now il
session, where the Louisiana interes
is represented by the able Presiden
of the Sugar Planters Association 9
that State.
Seyenth-What the people of thi
country want of Congress at thi
time is simply a reduction of th
duty on sugar, and that is to be ha
by the repeal of the law of 1877.
pure and simple, without any refer
ence to the methods of collection O
conflicting interests.

Pendleton wrote to Mr.. W. II. Vanderbilt,
soliciting contribution, and the reply
came promptly, inclosing n check for
$1,000. 1t is said that several other prom

made contributions equally as liberal. So
the church is not only out Of debt, but has

WOncn's Shoes.

lake the most recent fashion of nhoos
The heel OF the human being projects out
ward, or rather backward, and gives stead.
mess to "the sure and certain step Of man."
But fashion has decided that the heel OF
the boot or shoe shall get as near the cen
tire OF the instep as possible. Instead of
the weight OF the body resting upon an
arch, in the modern fine lady it rests upon
pegs with the toes in front, which have to
prevent the body from toping forward
Then the heel is so high that the foot rests
upon the peg and the toes; and the gait is
about as elegant as ii the lady were prac-
ticing walking upon stills. In or.er to
polse the body on these two points bend
forward is necessitated, which is regarded
as tho correct attitudeof the "form divine"
1t is needless to say that there arc few an.
klcs which can stand this strain without
yielding; and it is quite common to see
young ladies walking along with their an.
kIes twisting all ways, or perhaps with the
sole oil their boot escaping from under the
loot and the side OF the heel in contact
with the ground. With such modern i'm.
provements on sandals (which allow the
feet perfect freedom and play the present

quite that, but at which her mother might

with bedsteads, with curtains, pillow,
&C.; others with swings, benches, boxes,

Of modern house. These were followed

SllIilit Rooms.

No article OF furniture should be put in
room that will not stand sunlight for CIV.
cry room in dwelling should have the
windows so arranged that some time dur.
ing the day flood OF sunlight will force
its way into the apartments. The impor.
lance OF admitting the light OF the sun
freely to all parts OF our dwellings can new.
or be too highly estimated. Indeed, per.
feet health is nearly as much dependent
on pure sunlight as on pure air. Sunlight
should never be excluded except when SC
bright rs to be uncomfortable to the ewes
And walks should be in the bright sun
light, so that the eyes are protected by q
veil or parasol when inconveniently in
tense. a sun bath is OF more importance
in preserving healthful condition OF the
body than is generally understood. Asur
bath costs nothing, and that is msfor
tune, for people are deluded with the idea
that those things can only be good or use
ful which cost money. But remember
that pure water, fresh air andsunl rooms
kept free from dampness, will secure yov
from many heavy bills OF the doctors, ant
give you health and vigor which no none,
can produce. 1t is we'll established fact
that the people who live much in the sur
are usually stronger and more healthy thar
those whose occupations deprive them o
sunlight And certainly there is nothing
strange in the result, since the same law
applies with equal force to every animate
thing in nature. ItisQuite easy to arrang,
an insulated dwelling so that every room
may be flooded with sunlight some time in
the day, and it is possible that many town
houses could be so built as to admit more
light than they now receive.

A Million Dollar Bride.

A Butte (Montanal paper OF recent date
says; Forty.eight years ago John Saunders,
one OF the wealthiest cattle kings OF Mon
tana, who was then poor youth with moth
ing TO recommend him but a spotless rep
utation and brave heart, became enamor-
ed ola Kentucky belle whose father was a
rich man. His tenderness was reciprocated,
but the parent OF the young lady refused
bis consent TO the marriage and was mex
orable. Young Saunders was too honora-
BILE to press his suit in q family where his
presence was unwelcome. He sought an
interview with the girls parent, who, for
the twenty-third and last time, told him to
abandon all hopes OF marriages. MS far as his
daughter was concerned, as the difference
in their social positions was an insur-
mOuntable barrier.
GLOW much are you worth?" asked the
young lover. Transfer my property into
Sl,OO0,0O cash." was the naughty reply
"Very we'll" answered young Saunders,
Tomorrow morning leave for the West
to carve out fortune, and when / can size
up to your Sl,0O00O0, will return to claim
my bride, Tor know she will be true"
The young man kept his promise after a
long and sorrowful interview with his in
amorata, and with a small outfit, struck
out bravely for the Western territories
Since that time forty-eight years have
elapsed, during which, with varying sue
cess, he has dipped into numerous enter
prises, from the British line to Sonora. He
came to Montana in early days and EN-
barked in the cattle businesa with firm in
Helena with such success that the firm
now owns nearly 10000 head on the To-
ton. About month ago Saunders fig
ured up his assets, and concluded he was
worth Sl,000,000, and left for Kentucky
He found the love OF his young days wait
ing for him, confident and hopeful OF his
final arrival. The two were married with
as little ceremony as possible. They ar
rived in Butte this evening, and, after a
short visit, will proceed to their home in
Toton Valley, where the groom is greatly
respected.

True Lady.

Wildncss is thing which girls cannot
afford. Dclicacy is thing which cannot
be lost or found. No art can restore to the
grape its bloom. Familiarity without con-
iidence, without regard, is destructive to
NIL that makes woman exalting and emo
bling. 1t is the first duty OF woman to be
alady. Good breeding is good sense. Bad
manners In u woman is immortality. Awk-
wardness may be ineradicable. Bashful.
ness is constitutional. Ignorance OF Ell.
quette is the result OF circumstances. All
can be condoned and not Danish men OF
women from the amenities OF their kind.
But self-possessed, unshrinking and az.
gressivo coarseness OF demeanOr may be
reckoned us II States prison oifense, and
certainly merits that mild form OF restraint
called Imprisonment for life.
1t is shame for women to lecture on
their manners. 1t is bitter shame they
need it. Do not be restrained. Do not
have impulses that need restraint, Do
not wish to dance with the Prince un-
sought; feel differently. BE sure you con.
Ter honor Carry yourself so loitily that
men will look up to you for reward, not at
you in reeukc. The natural sentiment OF
man toward woman is reverence. He
loses a large means OF grace when he is
obliged to account her being to be train
ed in proprety. A mans ideal is not
wounded when woman fails in worldly
wisdom, but il in grace, in tact, in senti.
ment, in delicacy, in kindness, she would
be found wanting, he receives an inward
hurt.
