cured among foreigners unprotected by vac cination. AS proof of the protection afforded by vaccination the article mentions instances. In Chicago, it is stated, where compulsory vaccination is enforced among the children at the public schools, there have been but seven of them attacked by smallpox in five years In New England towns methodically protected by vaccination, where the disease has broken out it has failed to spread. In Washington in 1879 the disease was almost entirely stamped out by vigorous vaccination measures In a word where there is effect i've vaccination in community or country, there it ceases to be scourge and is confined within narrow limits. Speaking concerning good virus the Ne1os makes the sensible sug- gestion that Congress authorize the national board of health to establish national vac cine farm, that there may not be the least room for doubt regarding the strength and quality of the virus furnished.

Last season 10000, 900 feet WAS cut on the Mattawamkeag, while this year it is not likely to be over 30, 900, 900 feet.

Three eighths of the season is already gone, and until recently there has been but very light fall of snow. At present the average snow depth is fourteen to fifteen inches, and there is good hauling. There is a large overstock-some 60,0OO,O 600 logs and if there shall be plenty of water in the spring, so that these, together with this seasons cut, can be rafted to the mills, all will be well. Otherwise the stock for 1882 will be astonishingly light and prices will be high.

An act which in some respects closely re- sembles the Irish Land act of last year has just gone into effect by the publication of a long expected ukase in Russia, one which would have been published last May but for the ministerial changes which took place be- fore the Czar had signed it. Peasants are divided by the ukase into three classes CD Those who have bought their land outright by the aid of government loans; CD those who have not yet cleared of all their obliga- tions to their landlords; (3) those who have not made any arrangement for coming into possession of the land. The terms of the decree are somewhat obscure, but it is said that what provisions correspond to the pur- chase clauses of the Irish Land act are to be made compulsory on the third class, and the payment of the redemption dues is to be di- unfinished to peasants of the first category by 16 per cent, and to those of the second by 1 ruble per head. It is estimated that these concessions amount to an annual remission of $6, GOO, GOO land dues.

State Engineer Seymour of New York says the notion that the people have been taxed on account of the Erie canal IS all mistake. It has paid into the State treasury over $42, O0o, ,OOO, above all the cost of construction, superintendence and repairs. The remission of tolls on railroad freight in 1851, he esti- mates, has given the railroads $15O, GOO, GOO since that year, at the expense of the boat men, forwarders and others. The railroads, the mechanics, the farmers, he argues. should not now oppose the removal of tolls on boat men.

The longest way round is sometimes the shortest way home, especially by telegraph
 Thus, during the recent repairs of the tele- graph cable near Bombay the steam- CTS Chiltern and Great Northern were about half mile apart, the former having hold of-a shore end cable, and so was in telegraphic communication with Bombay the latter having hold of sea end
 and so was in telegraphio communication with Aden The Chiltern desired the Great Northern to splice on to the cable end held by the latter and pay out three-quarters of 0 mile of cable, and this was communicated by wire from the test-room of the Chiltern, passing through all the coils of cable in her hold and on to Bombay, whence it was sent on to Alden and back from Alden to the Great Northern. Thus as a speedy means of send ing message half mile, it forwarded by route between three and four thousand miles long. The following morning, when the two vessels were within a quarter of a mile of each other, communications passed between them constantly in the same way.

The Baptist ministers of Chicago have de. clared themselves against professional revi- valists of the usual kind and for the follow ing reasons ''They cultivate a distracted, one-sided religious life. They give undue prominence to noisy and public efforts for saving souls. They produce the impression that religion is largely matter of feeling. They savor too much of the burlesque and buffoonery. They lower the dignity of the most solemn subject which can engage mems attention.

WHELPs.

There Is class OF whelps coming
prominently before the people, and as
soon as they can be arrested and pan
ishsd the better It will be fer the
community At large. We allude to
that class Of scoundrels who make ii
. basisess to gain the affections OF
young ladies' and then rob and betray
them. The case of Lawrence, of Port
laaa, last month, and that OF Chase
aaA Miss Meter, Of California, few
days since are fair samples Of the pro-
esedings Of these accomplished VII

t. hsve all the Tins expended on
them possible 50 as to have their char
aetsrs known to those wish whom
they are brought in contact. Every
gentleman observes this rule, and
ladies' should not forget il. Strangers
to each other other, like Chase and

words. Lawrence and Chase both
fooled their uususpecting victims un-

and good name. Miss Metzger was
lefs entirely destitute. Such fate
to overcome pure and ianocent young
ladies' Is horrifying. When a man
presses his suit in violation of every
honorable rule known TO society,
ysung ladies sh 7uld learD that there
is something wrong. Beware of the
attentions Of gay deceivers. Ladies
cannot reform bigamists, nor unscrup-
ulous men, nor impostors, and they
should see TO it that they never fall

The Seattle code is luxury for Iuch
men. The fact that Miss Meter

from her husband does not make the

BROWNSVILLE NEWS.

BROWNSVILLE, Feb. Chit, 1882.
Ed. Densoo-af:
There are two cases Of scarlet fever

Hyde.
The Brownsville Woolen Mills Co.,
have Just received some new looms
which will soon be ready for work.
We noticed letter from Mr.. Hume
ia your last paper, ia answer to one
received from I. 2. Hackleman, on the
question of temperance. Hume's letter
reminds me Of our political campaign
efIss0. He vOry highly esteems the
resolutions Of the club in your city.
Now. allsw me to ask Mr.. Hume if the
Clab in Brownsville did not pass
similar jack olantern resolutions in
lSS0l and did nor tho Democratic party
have on their ticket one o. P. Coshow,
who was lifelong temperance man,
but the Republican Blue Ribbon men
Of this place went back on him for a
Jack o'lantern" because the Office was
that Of hold-over Senator. What
would Mr.. Hume do in lSS2i "a
burnt ohild breads the fire." Judging
by the past we can see no good in this
temperance movement except the de-
feat Of such men as were beaten by
"jack o'lautern" in 1880, and who but
Republicans essld call such result
good. II locks to us like they were
temperance only from the teeth out,
and inwardly stalwart Republicans
seeking to put up another political job
on us. What assurance haye we that
this will not DO repetition of the tenn
perance work of lSS0l This commu-
Aity is quiet and peacsable and will
support none but temperance men, but
we want no more drunken prohibition

sIoDoC wAg DEBT.

The committee on War clai;us in
Congress have reported f.vorable for
the payment Of the Modoc War debt.
The amount allowed by the State was
nearly $4,000. The amount the
committee recommended 10 be paid is =
little over $4,000, the sum fixed by
General Hardie, who reduced the COM
pensatiOn TO army rates. The State
allowed soldiers $500 per day, while
General Hardie gave them but thirteen
dollars per month. This, with re-
duction in other respects, which
General Hardie made under array
rules, makes the difference in the
two amounts. The legislative Com
mitteo of Investigation Ieportsd $40,-
900 wsrth Of property not accounted
fer, and made quite parade of virtu-
ous indignation over the discovery.
One of the committee was one of the
f.st officers in command in the Modoc
War, and to publish bis own shane
was very bitter indeed. But he took
no steps to correct the foul libel on
our people, and left it to work out as
best it could. The Legislature of 1880
authorized further investigation of
the Modsc War business, and found
the $4,000 fully and correctly &C.
counted for This committee report
ed that "1n conclusion this COMMITTEES
are of the opinion that the claims for
which the bonds of the State were
given were correct and just" The
Committee Of Investigation ia 1878,
who reported that there were frauds to
the amount of $4,000, were not
honorable enough to correct their
mistake after it was pointed out TO
them. They have left the impression
that there was 40 mistake, moro
than to make q report that was
not true. There are some persons
who will have it that our people are
dishonest, and that the Modoc War
was nothing but fraud. The people
understand these men, and are familiar
with the moral yard stick with which
they measure themselves. The people
are belied and abused sy them .all the
game however. The claim when paid
will no doubt be paid in full, as allow
ed by the State.
