Repeating the Presumption Law.

Repeating the Presumption Law.
Mr.. Washburn introduced the following
bill, which provides: srrs ....
The pre- emption laws of the United
States relating to the public lands are
hereby repealed, provided, however,
that such repeal shall not be construed to
embrace special statues relating to sps-
cifc reservations or tracts Of land, which,
to discharge treaty stipulations for other
purpose separate and distinct from the
general law, are required to bs sold for
cash to actual settlers or under the pro-
visions Of the law allowing pre-smptions
of the public lands. +e
Sec. 2 That all duly qualified persons
who, prior to the date Of this act, have IN
good faith and in compliance with exist
ing laws made presumption settlements
on the public lands subject thereto, shall
be entitled to perfect their entries and
rec 1--WE patents under said laws.
Sec. 3. That NO person who has made,
or shall hereafter make, homestead en-
try on tho public lands shall be entitled
to avail himself Of the provisions of Sec
ton 2,3Ol Of tho revised statues Of the
United States, until he shall have resided
upon and cultivated the land embraced in
such entry for the full period Of eighteen
months; provided however, that in case
of the death Of party who .has made
homestead entry, it shall be competent
for his successor in interest under the law
to make entry under said section at any
time thereafter.
1t is not, properly, new bill. He intro
duced one some time ago to repeal the
pre- -emption law, which he has since de-
cided could be modified with advantage
to the settler. He has, therefore, been in
consultation with the land office, and the
result is the bill given above, which is
really substitute for his original meas
ure. He will let the other go and urge
the adoption of this one.

The Democratic Leaders Consulting.

There seems to be q sort of scientific
consultation going on among Democratic
leaders to find out If possible what is the
matter with the Democratic party. In
this State investigators and explorers
have been sent out recently by a Tilden
organ of Utica, and they have all re-
turned with the information that the
party is merely suffering from lack of
Tlden. Given the Sage to run for Gov
ernor this fall, and all will be well. The
party will bloom suddenly into such
health and loveliness that everybody
will be glad to Join it and put it into
power. This is the New York view,
The Western view is not like unto it
Western explorers declare that the party
has had all the Tildenism it can stand;
but that what it wants is anew man and
clearly defined policy. Congressman
Morrison, of Illinois, thinks that an
issue of tariff and tax reform would
carry the party to glory. He says the
trouble now. is that the party simply
asks the people to turn out the Repub-
licans and put in the Democrats. He
very properly cells that ''only office
seeking on q large scale" and evidently
has small hope that the request will ever
be granted. With free trade and tax
reform he is sure success would GER
tainly come in the end. We most
warmly second the motion. 1t would
give every Republican in the land mex
pressible pleasure to see the Democracy
take the field this fall under gonfalon
Inscribed: ..Free Trade and Free Whis-
KY" They would thereby give them
selves and the Republicans a good start
for 1884. In fact, this plan strikes us as
even preferable to that Of the New York
Tilden Democrats, who wish the inscrip-
ton on the banner to be: 's1ilden and
More Cipher Reform" Still, no good
Republican would oppose the adoption
of either issue. With such q pair to
choose from the Democracy is indeed
rich. Let us hear no more talk about
the lack of a Democratic policy.-M Y.

THE CoUNTERsIGN WAS MARY"

Twas near the break of day, but still
The moon was shining brightly;
The west wind ~ it passed the flowers
Bet each one swsying lightly;
The sentry slow paced to and fro
A faithful niRht-watch keeping.
While in the tents behind him stretched
His oomrades-an were sleeping.
Slow to and fro the sentry paced,
His musket 10 his shoulder,
But not . thought of death or war
Was with the brave young soldier.
Ah no his heart was far away
Where on \ western prairie,
A rose-twined cottage stood. Thatnight
The countersign was Mary"
And there his own true love he SAW,
Her blue eyes kindly beaming,
Above them on her sun-kissed brow,
Her curls like sunshine cleaning,
And beard her singing, as she churned
The butter in the dairy,
The song be loved the beat. That night
The coontarsign was Mary"
''Oh, for one kiss from herr he sighed.
When, up the lone road Rlancing,
He spied form, q little fern,
With tring steps Advancing,
And ~ IL neared him silently
he Razed at it in wonder;
Then dropped his musket to his hand,
And challsneed; Who goes yonderF
Be you man. child or fairy,
Unless You give the countsrsign.
Halt Who goes there7- "'Tis Mary"
A sweet voice cried, and in his arms
The girl he'd left behind him

Shed bravely toiled to fnd him.

She sobbed; my heart was breaking;

Kind Heaven watching DER me,
Until Unhurt and well7'' Yes, love-"
At last you stood before me-
They told me that could not pass
The lines to seek my lover
Before day fairly came; but
Pressed on ere night was over,
And as told my name, found
The way free as our prairie"
Because, thank God tonight" he said,

The Yarmouth Bloater.

The glory of Yarmouth is its bloater,
but the highest qualities of the bloater
are so feeting that only those who live
in or near the town can know how de-
served the glory is. Take one of
the primest of these herrings, s.spit'' it,
and smoke it for between eighteen and
twenty-four hours; thus the common
herring is transmitted into the delicate
and incompatible bloater. The arsenal
like red brick buildings seen in many
parts of the town are used for this pur-
pose. The choicest OF these herrings,
technically s.bloater stuff" are selected
and threaded through the gills on
sticks or stspits" about a yard long, and
placed in racks, one above the other,
to height of thirty feet or more, in
building called the smoke-house. One
man stands in the racks with his legs
astraddle and puts '.spit'' after ..spits'
in position, about twenty-five herrings
being on each ''spit," until thousands
of the fish are hanging like stalactites
under the high roof. 1--WE call these
loves" an old man told us, as he
climbed up the racks; .Pm up among
the loves"
"Loves% we repeated, increduously.
ssYes, Love with hes" he replied,
poSlGlVely, tnougn we aIterWarQ fOunQ
out that he was mistaken, and that the
proper but inexplicable name of the
racks is louvres- When they are filed
log of oak is lighted and left to
shoulder, and in about eighteen hours
the herrings have absorbed certain
proportion of the smoke, and become
perfect bloaters with an unmatched
delicacy of flavor. They have so little
salt in them and are so finely cured
that they are too perishable to be sent
any distance, and thus it is that in this
condition the bloater is only known to
those who are in or near Yarmouth.
Smoked for a longer period, and salted,
they are prepared for the foreign mar

thirteen days to the fumes of the oak
produces the vulgar red herring. The

A Roaring Farce.

b The registration in South Carolina was
intended to oe roaring farce; it is roar
ing enough, but has already attained
the rank of high comedy with some
promise of tragedy before it is over
with. The Republicans, most of whom,
are colored, really insist upon having
their names put upon the poll list This
is disappointment to the Democrats.
who thought they had made the law
sufficiently complicated to discourage
the colored voters from making any Sc
rious attempt at registration. 1t is the
duty of the United States Supervisors
to be present at the registration, but the
State authorities hold that all the SUI
peryisor can do is to stand there like
the traditional Stoughton bottle and say
nothing. The Supervisors, on the other
hand. think they have something to do
besides watching the proceedings in
dumb show, and that when the regis
tering officer works so slowly in putting
the names down, if they belong to Re-
publicans, as to virtually obstruct the
registering process, it is his duty to OBJ

erwise," says the Charlestown Net1s and
Courier, .'the Staiwart- agents direct
the State Supervisor of registration to
move more quickly, to register a greater
number of persons in given time, to I
conduct the registration according to
their notions. O. When, the Supervisor
declines to recognize any authority but
that of the State law under which he
acts, he is arrested for obstructing
registration" and it goes on to say;
1.-The underlings of the United States
Court treat the white people, of South
Carolina as if they were conquered
rebels. There is no limit to the audaci-
" of the minor officials. and they rely
on the United States Court to protect
them from the natural consequences OF
their lawlessness. That, and nothing
else, is the matter in South Carolina"
On Thursday last one Captain Fred.
Horsey was arrested by Deputy Mar
shal, while pretending to be engaged in
registering voters, but while really en-
gagged in preventing some colored men
from getting their names on the list,
and he is, therefore, for the time being,
reckoned something between a martyr
and hero. Ii the same parish, as a
kind of set-off. five colored men were
arrested by the State authorities. also
for obstructing registration At the
hearing the local postmaster acted as
their counsel, and, according to the
Netos and Courier, /" delivered a, vio-
lent and abusive harangue to the dusky,
audience" OF course, the negroes
were found to have broken the law.
Horsey waived examination and gave
bail for appearance at court, and so the
play goes on.-Detroit Post and 1sfb-
