RETARDING THE ENn OF JUSTICE.
The New York Observer, one Of
the very best secular and religious
papers Published il that city, says:
"One Of The things hard to under
stand and difficult 10 reconcile with
common ideas of justice ID the work
ings Of our courts Of law i the prac-
tice Of adjourning the hearing Of cases
from week to week and month to
month, usually on the pleas Of coun-
sci, either that they are not ready for
trial, or that some new evidence is
needed before they can proceed. Of
course where such pleas are made in
good faith the ends of justice are oft.
en- furthered by granting them, but
in many cases the pleas seem to be
nothing more than legal device for
wearying out an opponent or making
trial SO expensive to him that be
cannot follow it Up. The strangest
part Of the matter is that magistrates
seemingly countenanoe such devices
BY granting adjournments on the
most fimsy pretexts. So great are
these abuses in the administration Of
justice that court Of law is about the
last place il which a man seeks for d
redress of wrongs ii restitution Of
rights"

Plant Treas.

Now that the season for planting
trees and shrubbery is approaching,
we would remind our readers that
they should never forget that trees
are among the most beautiful and use
full objects in nature. This is one Of
the objects and recommendations Of
the Improvement Association Of An
napolis, Every man who owns 3
resideaee Or piece 81 Iand should
plant trees wherever thev will not
detract from the value Of the property
or iDjure the productiveness of the
soil. Our hill-tops should Be covered
with trees, our pasture lands are All
the better for being partially shaded
Where the country Is level, we must
depend almost entirely upon trees to
make it beautiful. This is especially
the case on the great plains and prai-
ries of the West. Every man who
plants tree has done something to
make the earth more beautiful.

MILLER Is THERE.
HIS Nomination Unanimously Con.

Reported, It was Left to

BY The PRESIDENT ONE WEEK AGO,

WASHINGTON, D. c., March lS.-The
nomination of Joseph S. Miller to be Com.
missioner Of Internal Revenue, as corrected
yesterday was fayorablY reported by the
Finance Committee today and unanimous
ly confirmed by the Senate soon after 1t
went into secret session this afternoon.
The appointment Of Miller has provoked
considerable comment to day and the selec-
ton seems to give universal satisfaction.
Both Senators Camden and Kenna have re-
ceiVed large number Of kilograms from
representatives in Congress and prominent
gentlemen of other States than their own
heartily congratulating them on being able to
secure the appointment of West Virginia
Democrat to such an important position.
The Senators have also received quite
number of letters and telegrams from
prominent citizens Of their own State, ex-
pressing much satisfaction in securing the
appointment ofs citizen of West Virginia to
such an exalted position, and at the same
time cordially endorsing their selection Of
Mr.. Miller, who is regarded in every respect
as being thoroughly qualified for the Office
and say that this appointment is merited
one 1t has transpired that the President
indicated to the two West Virginia Senators
over week ago that that State should have
the Commissionership ard he left it for
them to name the man. Millers selection
was decided upon long before any one had
an int nation that he was a candidate for
any position. The story that ex-Speaker
Randall had anything to do with the selec
ton IS suthoritively denied, while
it is true that the ex-Spesker
was opposed to the appointment
of ex-Congressman Phil. Thompson
he did not recommend the appointment of
Miller. On the contrary, however, both Mr..
Randall and Congressman-elect W. L
Scott heartily endorsed and both urged the
appointment of Mr.. Buckner Of Missouri.
Mr.. Miller will take the oath Of Office to-
morrow morning and probably assume the
duties of the position. He expects how.
ever 10 leave for Wheeling tomorrow
night where he goes to settle up some pri'
yate business when he will return to Wash
iugtOu probably on Monday next and Prac-
tically assume control of the Internal ReVe-
nue. Bureau.

$25, 900 worth of walnut and popular tim
Der on the Pond and West forks of Little

The Jackson Herald says: Last week
we mentioned the reported destitution near
Stats Mills. Now comes some of the evil
dencei in the shape of the news that on Mon.
day night 10 or so bushels Of wheat were
taken from Enoch Stats granary. One or
two other farmers of the same neighbor.
hood are reported as losing wheat the same
night. A band to compel division OF what
remains in the locality TO preserve the life
of man and beast, is reported as having been
organized.
The following is clipped form the Hunt
lngton Advertiser: A married lady resid.
ing in this city, who has been living on un.
pleasant terms with her husband, determined
to end her sad life by drowning in the river.
So accordingly she fastened to the city
wharfboat last Saturday forenoon, and asked
the wharfmaster for q piece of paper and
pencil, wrote the following farewell note and
fastened it to the side of the building where
it would be easily discovered; lam going
to drown myself. Old C and !
did it, Take good care Of my children;
She then made q rush for the cold
depths of the placid Ohio, but. was stopped,
in her maddening attempt, by the prompt
and heroic action of the whsrfmaster, who
caught her as she was about to make the
fatal leap and prevailed upon her to not en-
tertaiu such horrible thought, especially
lust then, as the water was fearfully cold.
By the persuasion Of the wharfmaster, she
abandoned her idea Of self destruction, and
was afterward seen on the streets apparent
ly pleased the river was not being dragged
for her lifeless remains
A pretty severe shock Of earthquake was
felt in the region Of country OF which Spen'
Ger, Roane county, is the centre, about
nine o'clock Sunday morning. The tremoI

noise. No damage of consequence has
