The New York Ats1 and EEpress en-
phatiea)ly denies the report that that
journal n about to change hands, OF
that II 10 for sale. II hopes ito coten,-
posasies will conoeile Ito superior infor-
NATL in regard to the matter, and
award It credit for sincerity in making
the contradiction.
The assassins of Cavendish and
Burke are not yet found. The English
government has offered = reward OF
$500 for any information leading to
the arrest Of any person harbortng hem
or aiding their escape and It gives notice
that these who do so are liable to be
sentenced to penal servi!ude for life.
For all this 1t IL questionable whether
the ~ssas&ins will lie apprehended.
The former judges before whom aTgu-
nent was made upon Guiteau's bill Of
exceptions have failed thus ar to agree
upon decision. It 1t h thought the
whole matter will have to be reargued
With the nth judge present. The hang
Ing e the judges pleases the assaesin.
Late adviees state he will no longer be
permitted to receive visitors. This or
der should have been made long ago.
Is this 90? A recent press dispatch
says: At q recent reception of Mn. Par
nell, in Dublin, that lady said there
were important messages between my
son and Gladstone before. his release
from Kilmainham Jail, and he did not
eopsent 10 accept the release until Glad
stone had agreed to introduce four
amendments to the Land At, which
have been since introduced, and which
were framed by Charles Stewart Par
nell in Kilulainham jail"
In the proceeding to condemn the
mineral land claimed by Gassert and
Miller for railway purposes, to which
we have heretofore referred, the atto--
neg Of the U. l. N. railway to-day per-
fected M appeal in behalf of said rail-
way company to the District Court, to
have the damages accr"ing, II any, as
sessed according to law In said court. 1t
is also claimed by the company that the
right e. way accrued to the railway
company by virtue of ITS grant by Con-
Eress in 1877, and that said grant IL sl,-
periCr Ia any claim upon said lands
made since the date of said grant.
An Eastern Republican exchange says
IL il noticed that the examination Of
Senator Blair Ivy the FOrrign Relations
Committee was g.n't! deal more search
ir,g than THAT applied to Blaine, anil
t;,st Others besides Belmont took
hold 81 the work. This is attributed
by some I" the criticisms OF the press
al'on the Blaine examination. But the
sequel will show it is the fuliillnlent of
pre*O'.esrtetl plan. Blaine was tO liz
whitcwasl,ed and Blair slaughtered.
Aud that will he the conclusion. This
eouciu.ipn cannot lie construed into
compliment to Belmont, nor wilt it add
lustre to the name of Mr.. Blaine. Brt
Republican ncwsi alers are making
singular scenarios nowadays.
We publish in am"tl,rr column the
full text vt the dill introduced by our
Delegate. the Hou. Martin Maxinn.s, to
provide for the reapportionm,ent OF the
Legislature Of the Territory, etc. As
may bc noticed the bill ais, provides for
the Orya nizati"n Of u new county and
tie aI7r'rtionnent Of representatives
Tor 1t. As there can be no reasonable
objection urged against the bill it is SAFE
"a a>sunIc it will betnN,le law. The
MlxEK has all along cpnten.letl that
Mr.. Mayinu,s would do all in his ,wwer
to r'rrere The mistake OF the last Iegis- !
la'ive Assembly in leaving this county
without representative in the next |
Legislature, ami the Introduction vi |
this bill shows its faith Was we'll found |
