fastened. The farmer accordingly engaged a
tramp to assist. On the second day at dinner
time the tramp was without food, and the
farmer invited him into the kitchen. Upon
the mistress of the house entering also, the
tramp recognized IN her his wife, and the
mistress identified him as her first husband.
The man had been released from prison few
days before.
THE Chinese farm house is a curious looking
abode. Usually it is sheltered with groves Of
feathery bamboo and thick spreading ban
vans. The walls are Of clay or wood, and the
interior of the house consists of one main
room extending from the floor to the tiled
roof, with clOset-loOking apartments in the
corners for sleeping rooms. There is a sliding
window on the roof made of cut oyster shells
arranged in rows, while the side windows are
mere wooden shutters. The floor is the bare
earth, where at nightfall there often gathers
together miscellaneous family of dirty chill
dren, fowls, ducks, pigeons and litter OF
pigs, all living together III happy harmony.
In some districts infested by marauding
bands, houses are strongly fortified with high
walls, containing apertures for firearms and
protected by mOat crossed by rude draw
bridge. With grain, swine and a well under
his roof, the farmer and his men might hold
out against years siege.

Two Kinds of sauatters.

Two committees of the House have be-
fore them a number of afiidavits of per-
sons who were driven out of the Indian
Territory last summer by. United States
soldiers. In these affidavits it is alleged
that the soldiers were guilty of great
cruelty towards the women and children
Of the colonists who sought homes in the
Territory, and that by their harshness they
caused the death of one woman. These
colonists, it will be remembered. followed
Capt. Payne into the Territory for the
purpose of taking possession of unOccu-
pied lands. Certain journals which are
anxious to have the Territory thrown open
to settlement draw attention to the fact
that while Payne and his crowd of poverty
stricken home seekers were driven out of
Oklahoma at the point Of the bayOnet
millions of acres of the pub
lie domain in Nebraska, Colorado,
Idaho, Dakota, Utah and New Mexico
are occupied by rich cattle men without
permission from the government. In fact,
the Secretary of the Interior has sent
letter to the House, showing that these
cattle men have not only fenced these
ldilus. nuL GAtlElHC dD5VlulC NOnAAOl UNCl
them. They guard them with shOtguns,
and settlers dare not purchase them.
Even the mail-carriers are forced, IN many
instances, to 90 many miles out of the
beaten roads in order to reach their sta
tons, because the cattle men will not per-
nit their fences to be opened or their
ranches to be crossed. OF course the gov

ton of affairs to exist. These rich cattle
squatters ought not to be allowed to eXer-
else the rights of ownership over the
public domain. or to prevent settlers
from locating homes wherever they can
purchase lands. The wrongful acts of
the cattle quarters, however, cannot
properly be urged as a reason why immi-
grants should be allowed to settle in
Oklahoma. That Territory has been set
apart for the exclusive use of the Indians.
They have the right to rent the unOccu-
pied lands, and some of them have exer-
cised their right by leasing large tracts to
cattle raisers, but neither Capt. Payne
nor anybody else, without the consent Of
the Indians, has the right to occupy
any part of the Territory. Capt. Payne
and his followers knew when they
entered the Territory that they
were violating the law. and
that they were liable to be run out at
the point of the bayOnet. They have no
right to complain. They ought to be
thankful that they were not treated with
greater harshntss. 1t is to be regretted,
Of course, that the Territory is closed to
settlers. 1t is a splendid country, and if
it were open to immigrants it would soon
become a rich and populous State. AS
long, however, as it is reserved to the In
dams no particular gentleness ought to
be shown in putting such men as Payne
out of it.

ABOLITION IN BRAZIL.

An Emancipation Celebration at CeaTa-
Slavery Gradually Disappearing.
All the week, says a Rio JaneirO letter
Of March 80 to the New York Herald, we
have been having professions, speeches,
poems, concerts, bazaars, alterations of
slaves, fireworks and a big balloon of high
soaring proclivities, in honor of the as
sumption of Ceara upon the 25th of March
the anniversary Of swearing te the cOnsti-
ton which the first Peter gave Brazil, of
the place of the first and only province as
yet in which the green and golden flag
waves over a population wholly of free
men. The greatest credit is due to the
eXertiOns of the abOlitiOnists of Ceara for
their interchangeable labors in eliminating
slavery from the province. On the
Both day of September, 1878, the register
closed with total of 80, 400 slaves in the
province. About 10000 were exported
before the refusal of the bOatmen of
FortaleZa, at the end of January, 1881, to
embark slaves virtually stopped the
export. In the following August the
bOatmen and the pOpulace forcibly re-
sisted the efforts of the police to ship to
Rio three slaves belonging to or claimed
by Senator, and after that the abolition
lists had the game in their hands, and
through their efforts the value of the
slaves declined so greatly that the last
official emancipation of 800 odd slaves
was effected at an average of only So
milreis each-say $35-while i'm the South
the average has been 800 to 1000 milreis.
A calculation which has been made of
the existing slaves reduces to 100000
the 1,542,232 on the special register when
closed on September 80, 1878.

As quite a number of Democratic jour
nails, which favor a protective and pro-
hibitory tariff, are clamoring for the
nomination of Mr.. Tilden at Chicago, it
may interest them to know what Mr..
Tilden's tariff views are. The following
was written by Mr.. Tilden:
Devoted TO the rights of our American
industry, which is now beginning to fill
the world with the renown of its achieve
ments, it (the Democratic party has re-
fused to direct its application by pro-
hibitory or protective tariffs; preferring
that each man should judge how he can
make his own labor most productive, and
trusting for the aggregate result to those
natural laws which enable every one of
our million of city population to daily
choose his food, and yet furnish buyers
for everything that has been provided be-
forehand.
Entertaining such views, would 1t not
be impossible for Mr.. Tilden, being con-
scientious man, to stand upon platform
containing a tariff plank like that in the
platforms of the Ohio and Pennsylvania

Is the season in which bad or poisoned blood
is most apt to show itself. Nature, at this
juncture, needs something to assist it in
throwing off the impurities which have COL
lected by the sluggish circulation of blood
during the cold winter months. Swift's Spe-
cifc is natures great helper, as it is purely
vegetable Alternative and tonic.
Rev. L. b. Paine Macon, Ca, writes: 1--WE

plants, and as a general health tonic, and
have had remarkable results from its use on
the children and employees of the institution
1t is such an excellent tonic, and keeps the
blood so pure, that the system is less liable to
disease. 1t has cured some Of our children of
