The latest illustration of the Southern
method Of avenging real or fancied wrongs
comes from the town of Mansfield, La. In
tho town is a female college" of which Rev.
j. L, Borden is, or was, president In the
town also lived Rev. B. f. Jenkins who en-
tered the ministry through Borden's infu-
onco. jenkins was engaged to a girl of II
who told him one day last week that Borden
had ruined" her, whereupon, without wait
ing for further particulars, Jenkins took his
pistol and chased Borden through the streets
and shot him dead, the victim protesting as
he fell, My God, 1 did not do it," The
Mansfield community sees nothing strange or
reprehensble in all this, and expends what
ever surplus feeling it may have on the sub
ject in admiring Jenkins because he acted so
promptly and then Immediately surrendered
himself

One of the leading Russian Nihilists says
that his party has abandoned the system of
personal attacks on the Gar in order to plan
n general uprising and revolution. Such a
decision will meet with universal sympathy
where the former efforts were regarded with
horror. Revolution is Legitimate even if force
be necessary to accomplish it; but political
assassination is cowardly, cruel and ineffec-
tual. If a powerful instruction can be or
ganized in Russia for the purpose of obtain
ing Constitution, the Gar would have less
reason to refuse than if the Nihilists we're di-
recting all their attacks against him person
ally. 1t is extremely doubtful, however,
whether such an instruction can reach a
self sustaining position. 1t would probably
be discovered in its incipiency, and would
then, of course, be meroilessly crushed out

The Public Lands.

Washington, Dec. THE three
bills relating to public lands, intro
duced by Senator Ingalls, are design
ed to materially simplify the oper-
atoms of the general land office, and
change several important particulars
in the method of acquiring title to
public lands. The first provides for
the repeal of the presumption laws,
but authorizes q second homestead
entry, by persons who, having made
one entry, have for any reason failed
to perfect title, and who, at the same
time never made a filing under the
presumption act. The second re-
peals the timber culture law, but
permits titles to be perfected accord
ing to the provisions of that law,
upon all claims entered before the
passage of the repeating act. The
third, and last series, proposes to
amend the homestead act, by pro-
hibiting communication Hereunder.
until two years have passed from the
date of settlement, one year of which
must be of record in the land office.
1t also repeats the provision OF the
law, under which the local land Off
GERS are authorized to receive re!in-
Iuishments, and immediately throw
the claims relinquished, open to en-
try. In effect it requires all relin-
quishments to be forwarded to the
commissioner of the general land
office, and be approved by him, be-
fore the land in question is thrown
open to entry, The effect of this
series of measures, if they become
law, will be to limit the amount of
public land a single individual can
secure, to one claim of 100 acres of
land, which may be secured, after
two years Of actual residence there
ON, by paying s1.25 per acre, or af-
ter five years residence, for nothing
The provisions in respect to relin-
quishments, are designed to put a
stop to the practice of filing entries
Upon public lands, and hiding them
for the purpose Of selling relinquish-
ments to incoming settlers. Under
the existing laws a citizen can OBTAIN
three claims; one each under the
homestead. presumption, and timber
culture laws. He secures a timber
culture claim without residence,
and may purchase presumption, and
homestead claims after six months
actual residence.

A wRoNGED woMAN.-About four
years ago Miss Lizzie Dunn, an esti-
mable young lady quite well known
in this city was living in the family
of w. E. Cation at Cheyenne Agency.
Here che became acquainted with
one Frank Kenneth. a member of
the I'D Regular Infantry Band. At
ter a pleasant courtship of a year or
more Kenneth was discharged. Both
parties made their way to this city
and yer married at the residence Of
Joseph Collins, Esq. From here
they went to St. Paul and immedi-
ately commenced housekeeping. In
ashort time news came that Kenneth
had been cheated out 0f all his ready
cash by a sharper who sold him an
interest in 4 stock Of goods he did
not own. Instead of acting toe man
and informing his new wife Of his
bed luck, he deserted her and pro-
ceeded to New York City aud enlist
ed in the regular army. After many
weeks of earnest inquiry Mrs. K.
learned that her truapt husband was
at Benton Barracks, Mo. She sold
her household goods and as soon Is
cars could carry her met face to face
the man she loved. This was a year
ago last September; and now comes
chapter two: Kenneth has shown
himself to be i heartless william by
deserving the army and his wife and
child, taking with him two hundred
dollars that Mrs. Kenneth had 70.

On last Monday a man who gave
the nalne OF H A. Berry, came into
town and visited several of the stores.
among others that of NJ. T. Myers,
where he appropriated a couple OF
pairs of shoes, taking them down to
his wagon and putting them into n
sack, where our worthy marshal
gobbled them and invited the gen
tleman up to the mayors office for
instruction in the decalogue and his
duties as a United States citizen. Mr.
Berry acknowledged the theft, and
donated ten dollars to the state. be-
sides the costs of the suit. He
claimed to have been intoxicated at
the time or he never would have
done the deed. However that may
be, it was a dear bargain in shoes,
considering that he didn't get the
shoes after all. We understand that
Mr.. b. is n Justice of the Peace and
lives about four miles west of CALI
epe, that he had a little affair of the
same nature at that place, only it did
not get into the courts. The gentle.
man was very solicitous that the
matter should not get into the news

ing back of Hofliman's block, who
recently came here from Calliope,
filed himself up with rot-gut last

and children and breaking up the
furniture in the house. Policeman

guilty ard was fined ten dollars and
costs. He paid the fine and was re-
leased. Such miserable, low-lived
devils ought to be run out Of town.
