FROM THE WILD WEST.
Foreign Sportsmen Returning to CiviIizs- ton Laden With Trophies of the
 Chase.
Chicago Times.

Wintry blasts and threatening pros poets of snow capped peaks, with Alpine valleys and only sage brush and stumpy undergrOwth to light the camp fires are having thelr effects on the tourist hunts men of Wyoming and the northwest, and they are returning to civilization. Some Of them come back with many heads of mountain sheep, bears and buf- falOes, as proud of their trophies as the war-like trIb-s-whOse reservation they have doubtless encroached on in the pursuit of game are of the scalps of their enemies when returning from a hostile meeting. Three or four of these huDtsmen came to Chicago on their way home They are a couple of British sportsmen and two Erenchmen. The Britons were Capt. E. NJ. Cookesley late of the English army, and his friend G.. W. Marsh, a young Irishman. The Frenchmen were the Count De DOre and hIs son, the viscount. The latter have been to Oregon, and were accompanied east by H. c. Leonard, of that state, whose guests they were. Both parties stopped at the Grand Pacific hotel, and in a comparison of the representations of the two, the hunt of the Britons was more successful than that of the French men. Whether their appearance was an evidence of their hard work in chRs- ing the buffalo it is difficult to say, but 1t IS certain 1t was an evidence of their soiourn in the backwOods for consider able length of time. As they appeared at the hotel they might easily have been mistaken for the most hardened iron tiersmen. Mir. Marsh gave very inter esting account of his hunt, which com menced at Fort Steele Sept. B and ended Nov. l9. The scene of their sport was about Kirby Creek, and for the two months sport the two great men have to show seventy five head which follow them to Chicago. They are elk. bufTslOes, bear, mountain sheep and other game. The sportsmen report that the only buffaloes 70 be found in Wyom- ing were at the scene of their opera tion along Kirby Greek. The huntsmen had several narrow escapes from death. One was a charge by a buffalo herd, which nearly ran them down. Another was Tn their loss among the mountains during binding snow storm, when the guide was unable to find the camp. Had 'hey not succeeded in finding this after a tedious search MT. Marsh might not have been living to recount his e1- perience.

No Precedents in History for the Condi-

The history of the world, says the London Times, has furnished no precedent for the condition of the United States Hereafter Australasia may exhibit a similar spectacle. As yet the North American repubhc stands alone With the conscious power to carve its own destinles belonging to perfect national independence, 1t com bIUes tine Roman peace enjoyed privately and commercially by subject provinces of the ancient Roman empire. No country in the world has any interest Tn mOlesting 1t. None would dare grItul- tously to offer it an aiirOnt or do Il an injustice Its standing army IS the minutest in existence, and General Sherman, vino would like 1t enlarged, does not desire thst It should be more than minute. Except for the fear of wild Indians or native desperadOes, 1t might dIsband the whole tomorrow and be perfectly secure. Its citizens are free to play with politics or abstain at discretion. TheIr happy fortune has left 1t for the time with no more difficult problem to settle than how to avoid accumulatIng so enormous reserve of public wealth as not to know what tO do with its taxes. Favorable geographical circumstances must be thanked in part for its immunity from many national burdens and national alarms. Unquiet and strong neighbOrs compel precau- tions generally. The United States than two real ueighbOrs, one too weak tO be harmful; tine other, which IS great enough, possessed Nas to be otherwise than friendly. If even it's neighbors had been among the most aggressive, its territories and its popula- ton make q solid mass which would have insured it against attack. But 1t would be unfair to assign so much credit for American liberty from political and international cares to American natural advantages as to put out of sight the American people itself Central and South America are at least as richly endowed by nature as the North, and the owners have not derived from their inheritance hundreth part of the gain. In North America physical nature has been well watched by human nature. Perfection has not been reached. Amer icans still have something lO learn. They long since imbi0ed the faculty of

That, however, is a character istic which Is hardly to be expected in prOprietors of a land which has been lying failow for thousands of years. and has only in these latter days come into possession of a people able Co develop and enjoy 1t. A little intoxication IS pardonable in men set to do the work of centuries III 8 generation. By the time the new world is no longer ID any sense new, its inhabitants may have taught themselves at once to labor with all the slow deiiberateuess of Europe, and to take their pleasure, whether 1t be song by Mime.

A telegram from Harrisburg says: The members of the legislature If Penn sylvania who have been Tn extra session nearly six months, and who have been felcitRting themselves on drawing from the treasury S1,SO0 each day, will find themselves grievously disappointed when Gov. Pattison sends in veto of the item in the bIll appropriating about S457,O00 for the payment of senators and members of the house Of represen- tatives. It is understood that the gov ernor holds that, under the most liberal construction of the law under which pay is claimed, the members of the legislature are entitled to compensation for only fifty days. They have inter preted the law to allow them Sl0 a day for every day of the session, and If the threatened veto should come, deter mined effort of the legislature to pass it over the governors head would be inevitable.
