Mr.. AUGUST BELMONT came out of
the trial for libel against Dewey with
verdict of guilty" Judge Cowing
took the question of penalty under
advisement, and said: Instead of
passing sentence this morning 1 will
take time to consider what l will do
in the case. Mr.. Belmont is not the
plaintiff in the case. More as a warn
ing to others / shall think whether
some penalty should be inflicted as a
restraint upon the tongue and the
press, with reference to private repu-
tation. look upon reputation as the
highest boon we have, and I believe
that an unwarrantable attack upon it
should be punished ten times more
severely than attacks upon property

THE first session of the University
of Texas should be signalized by the
naturalization Of goodly number of
young women. There are large
number of them in Texas, ambitious
to excel in the higher branches
of education and no other
country nor state on the face
Of the globe offers, at so little ex-
pense, the means to obtain such edu-
cation. Tuition is absolutely free.
The constitution provides that in no
case shall the naturalization fee eX-
coed thirty dollars. The fee has been
fixed, for the first session, at ten dol
lars, and this assessment even would
not have been made had it not been for
the shortness of the available fund
for meeting immediate expenses.
When the land fund be-
gins to create an annual
revenue, as it shortly will, there will
be no necessity for any naturalization
fee, except for students from other
states. But we were making refer
ence especially to the matriculation
of female students. How many
young Texas women will grace the
university in September next with
their presence as students?

AVETERAN SOLDIER.

Mr. G. F. BOwLEs, of No. "a Common Street
Lynn, Mass, says
While in the army, at the battle of SpOtt-
sylvania, fell while getting over rail-fence
and was badly injured and left for dead, but
after IA time was picked up by comrades; and
upon examination it was found that my back
was badly hurt and my kidneys seriously in
iured and / have suffered the most eXcruci-
ating pain since, and could obtain no relief al
though treated by several physicians, and |
had given up all hope of getting help when |
was recommended TO use Hunts Remedy. L
purchased several bottles at one of our drug
stores i'll Lynn, and began to use it as directed,
and can now attend to business and am free
from the pains L formerly had; and | wish to
say to my friends and comrades that Hunt s
Remedy will do all that is claimed for it, and
worthy of all praise, You can use my testi-
mOny when you have occasion to, as l most
heartily recommend it to all that have kidney

The Low Price OF Wool,

Mr.. A. M. Garland, president of the National
Wool-Growers' Association, whom some people
accuse OF having been untrue to the nterests
OF the wool-growers when ON the tariff COM
mission, tells the wool-growers of Ohio that the
low prices OF wool to-day are not due to the
change in the tariff (which only went into eff
feet July y, but to the competition of Texas,
and other frontier states where land is cheap
and the conditions of raising wool more eco
nomical than in the eastern and central states
The only way Is for the eastern and central
state protectionists to ask congress to protect
them with an Interstate tariff

West in growing grain or meat, still less
can we compete with it in wool when
those millions of acres of free pasture be-
come stocked with sheep" We added
that we might expect to feel the pressure
of this competition in five or six years,
and it is matter of history that the de-
cline in the price of fine wool did begin
about four years ago. We also called the
attention of our readers to the fact that this
competition could only be in fine wool, and
advised them to turn their attention to the
rearing Of the mutton breeds of sheep.
This would be profitable industry on
many of our farms, if we could put an end
to the simultaneous rearing by our neigh
bors of the domesticated wolf that we call
"dog." He is the natural enemy of sheep.

How Watch Cases are Made.

A plate of SOLID GOLD IA 2-10 karats
fine is soldered on each side of plate Of
hard nickel composition metal, and the
three are then passed between polished
steel rollers. From this plate the various
parts ofthe cases-backs, centers, bezels, etc.
are cut and shaped by dies and formers.
The gold is thick enough to admit of all
kinds of chasing, engraving, and engine
turning. The composition metal gives it
needed strength, stiffness and sOlidity, while
the ,critten guarantee of the manufacturers
uarranting each case to wear twenty years
proves that it contains oil the gold that
can possibly be needed. This guarantee
is given from actual results, as many Of
these cases have been worn perfectly smooth
by years of use without wearing through
the gold. DUBUQUE. a.. Dec. A. 1880.

The Tinkham Butter Package.

The Maine Farmer refers to Tinkham's
felt-lined butter package as novelty.
We described it in these columns March
81, 1878. 1t does not seem to have been
pushed into notice as it deserves to Be,
but this is 80 often the case with unpat-
ented devices that we have often thought
it a public benefit to have good thing
patented, as then it becomes somebody's
interest to make it widely known. This
has certainly been the case with the pat
emit system of deep setting for cream. We
here reprint the description of Mr..
Tinkham's invention;
"Mr. Tinkham's package consists of a
small spruce box nicely made, nearly
square, though somewhat greater in
length than in width, of the exact capac-
ity of five pounds of butter, though each
parcel is placed upon the scales and
weighed to a nicely. Before placing the
butter in box sheet of specially pre-
pared paper, which is the product of
wood pulp, and both tasteless and odor-
less, of light buff color, and not costing
over ten cents per pound, is used as lin.
ing for the box, and also covers the but.
ter itself, really rendering the package
almost impervious to the air. A ship
ping case is provided, made Of pine OF
spruce, sufficiently large to contain twelve
ive-pound packages. This case is lined
inside and the twelve packages covered
with piece of fabric, made up OF WOO
and hair known as steam-felting. This
telling is from fve-eighths to three
fourths of an inch in thickness. and costs
about 81 to each case. 1t forms com
plete protection to the butter from the at
mospheric changes for at least thirty-si1
