Senator Butler certainly echoed the
sentiments Of the people of this
section upon the subject OF fast
mails i'm his remarks in the Senate

10 cut of the appropriation for the service

Through the good offices of Mr.. Reed, of
Maine. and other friends on the House
Judiciary Committee. the Northern Pa
cific Railroad Company is permitted to
avoid forfeiture of Il. 100000 acres of pub

smother the report that would have
opened up a discussion Of the matter.
The climax Of meanness is reached by
those who knowingly palm worthless vac
cine virus upon a cOnfiding public. Nash
vile recently had experience with such

well 10 thoroughly test the supply fur

Jaw Gould sent his check for $500 for the

The practical Philadelphia Record sus-
poets that the Mayor thinks Gould has
''gOne long, on charity and intends to
corner the market.

period of excitement attending the discOv-
cries OF the carbonate fields. Over $685.
100000 in precious minerals have been
taken from these mines since their discOv-
cry in 1873. The total product of Colorado
for 1882 is quoted at $26, go, SOS. Thus it
will be seen that the Leadville region fur
nishes more than twO-thirds of the whole
product Of the State.
sIfr remarks the Philadelphia Record,
''the J. E. Bryant who is seeking General
LOngstreet's place as Marshal of Georgia
is the same Bryant who has been solicit
ing funds in the North to support an al
legged newspaper somewhere in Georgia,
and has been filling the country with tales
scarcely more probable than Munchau-
sens. the friends of the present incum-

tended, considering the inclemency Of the |

to receive contributions for the relief of |
the distress in the Fatherland, arising out |
Of the widespread foundations with which |
some of the fafrest sections OF Europe have |
been visited. We have no doubt that our |
citizens will respond generously to the |
calls made upon them and sustain the |
reputation of the Forest City, which has |
ever been ready TO help the needy.
Some Of our contemporaries, North and /
south. allude to the success of Gov. Ste !
phens' requisitiOH upon the President for /
the surrender Of Jules SOule, the criminal |
who escaped from Georgia and enlisted in 4
the United States army at st. Augustine, 4

very recent revival toward a Southern /
state, and. coming from stalwart adj
ministratiOn, NAV be considered as an
