A messenger who reached Dongola, on the
7th, from Khartoum says an officer was sent by
Gen. Gordon to capture Shendy. He shelled
the inhabitants out of the place and took many
prisoners. He also says that small parties of
rebels made daily attacks on Khartoum but are
invariably repulsed with heavy loss. The rebels

Indebted 90 Pompeii.

1t is a singular fact that we are IN
debted to Pompeii for the great in-
dustry of canning fruit. Years ago,
when the excavations were just begin
ming, a party of Cincinnatians found, in
what had been the pantry OF house,
many jars of preserved figs. One was
opened, and the figs were found to be
fresh and good. Investigation showed
that they had been put into the jars IN
a heated state, an aperture left for the
steam to escape, and then sealed with
wax. The hint was taken, and the
next year the canning Of fruit was IN
troduced into the United States-the
process being identical with that IN
vogue in Pompeii centuries ago.

he is nearly always ready to back
up his opinions with money if nee

result of the approaching presiden-
tial election, and Mr.. Cammack
has given a good deal Of attention
to the shifting phases of the can

lief that Grover Cleveland will be

THE NATIONAL FEELING.

In the Senate on the 9th, Plumb, OF
Arkansas, introduced a bill to prevent
the acquisition of real estate by aliens.
1t was refereed to the Committee on
Judiciary. Van Wyck, of Nebraska,
introduced bill to restrict aliens and
foreign corporations in the ownership
OF public land and Of any land in the
Territories. 1t was referred to the
Committee on Public lands. The fol-
lowing ia she, text of the bill;
Be il enacted, That it shall be un-
lawful for any persons or ASSOCIATION
Of persons not citizens of the United
States. or for any corporation or com.
pany organized under the authority of
any foreign State, prince or potcntate,
10 acquire title from the United States
10 greatcr quantity Of public land
hban an individual citizen of the
United States Is authorized 10 enter
under the settlement and improvement
laws thereof. or to acquire, receive, or
hold by deed, grant, demise or trust
hereafter cxecnted, n. greater quantity
OF land In the Territories of the United
States than $40 acres.
The feeling Of nationality is growing
every day, and this bill is one of
the, Indications. 1t arises from no
party or section, but is the natural
result of reflection. When we needed
immigrants to, supply labor for our
thinly populated colonies, before the
Revolution, and in the still thinly pop
plated States after the Revolution, an
invitation was extended to- all who
wanted land to come and take all they
wanted. The idea, true. enough at
that time, that there was land to. throw
away, became, one of the national
traditions, and, joined with the asylum
forall clap-trap of Fourth of July
orators, has descended to the present
day, much to the detriment of the
country. This false generosity, or,
rather, assumption of charity, for a
lpng time kept the national feeling in
4beyanca, but, for some years, the
necessity for self protection has been
making itself more and moramanifest,
8ntsi at Inst public men have become
aware that their popularity does not
suffer if they are bold enough to. face
the charge of selfishness and propose
measures for the protection of the
people who are here.

A PERMANENT WAR RELIC.

The famous Dutch Gap Canal must
forever remain associated with the
war record of General Butler 1t is
five miles below Richmond, and saves
about seven miles of navigation in the
&c from Richmond to City Point.
When General Butler ceased work
upon it, its depth was only six feet.
1t is now fifteen feet at low tide TIC.
The regular officers thoroughly de-
tested General Butler and placed little.
confidence in the success of his plan.
They constantly derlded the project
and insisted that it would never be
finished. Once a Courtmartial, COM
posed of regular officers, sentenced a
soldier, who had been convicted OF
some serious offense, to hard labor for
life on The Dutch Gap Canal. The
sarcasm contained in the sentence was
unmerited, but it exasperated old Ben
much more than all the spoon stories
ever did.
