Land Office Frauds.

An annual $500, 900 steal has been sup
pressed by Commissioner Sparks, who
has refused to approve the surveying
contracts that have been sent up from
the surveyor general since his term of
ONCE began. Finding these contracts
coming in greatly in excess of the annual
appropriations by congress he instituted
an inquiry which developed surprising
looseness of administration in facilitating
frauds. 1t appears tnat some years ago
congress established what is known as
the individual deposit system, by which
settlers in unsurveyed townships could
secure surveys by depositing the estim-
ed cost. The deposits were covered into
the treasury and credited to the sur
veying fund, out of which surveys are
paid for

Philadelphia, is curio in his way. He
is engaged in warfare with bilks,
blackleZs, quacks and dead-beat adver-
tisers Last week one of his many en-
emies sent him an internal machine, "
of rather clumsy pattern by mail. It

box cautiously and found f~.-syz ze-,--.

1t was loaded and cooked and piece of
copper wire was attached to the trigger
and fastened to the lid of the box, but
in such way that the opening of the
box coul not possibly have discharged
the pistol. The postal authorities are
investigating the matter.

be unlocked, and what the result of that
unlocking will be no man can now tell.

Success in Breeding.

The man who establishes himself as
breeder of any class or kind of pure-bred
stock at once assumes more responsible
tiles than is genrally found in super
fetal examination Of such position.
In him centers, not only the success of
the individual enterprise, but also the
reputation of the entire field which he
enters, and is effected to greater or less
extent by his integrity, honesty and
general manner of doing business.
Fogyism is always ready and anxious to
rejoice over the failure of one who has
broken from its ranks, and because such
failures sometimes do occur, those who
have taken the initial step in the right
direction should with more care, guard
against anything that has even the SEM
blance of failure. Untiring perseverance
alone is no assurance of success when
the merits of an enterprise are measured
by public opinion, and is in great
measure dependent 30 much upon the
general public for support. To produce
stock for the market should not be the
entire object Of a breeder, when the
value Of mis- animals depended so much
upon the many different things connect
ed with their production. It is not diff
fcult to see why the value of an animal
is often changed by the transfer of
ownership. It is well for beginners in
such laudable work as the improvement
Of live stock to study these points well
and to remember that the character Of
the stock depends in no small degree
upon the character of the breeder.

of change in the administration of a

but these struggles must end with the

that they are democrats; that all cannot

Gladstone Speaks.

At meeting of the Midlothian Liber-
al association last week, the chairman
read letter from Gladstone, expressing
his deep and grateful sense of fidelity
for their liberal manner in 1880 in deal
ing with difficulties almost unexampled.
He refrains from eriticising the conser-
yative cabinet, feeling it to be his duty
to support and assist them in dong
right. He says he is confident that the
presence of liberals in parliament will be
competent to exercise the necessary Yigi-
lance. He asks Midlothian to assist
him in using his strongest and most
sedulous efforts in the interest of the
liberal party. Gladstone says he did
not think he should again ask to be re-
turned to parliament, but that events
have transpired which have rendered it
necessary that he should not imperil the
unity and efficiency Of the party. This
is tantamount to the declaration that he
will remain the leader of the liberals.
The meeting was then addressed by Earl
Roseberry, and resolution expressing
hearty confidence in Mr. Gladstone was
afterwards adopted. a

Mrs. Dudley Acquitted.

Counsel for MRS. Dudley opened for
the defense June SOth. He claimed that
Mrs. Dudley had assaulted .Rossa not
out Of personal spite, or to avenge per-
sonal insult; but because he was an en-
enly other country. Counsel discussed
the subject of Irish patriotism, and in
outlining the line Of testimony for the
defense, counsel spoke ofwhat he termed.

said he would show that for several

that Mrs Dudley was not in her right
mind.
Mrs. Dudley insisted that she was not
insane at the time of the attack, and In
sisted upon her right to go on the stand
and testify in her own behalf. The
counsel could not see how they could do
otherwise than call her as witness. 1t
was finally agreed that she should be
called 10 the stand After recess Mrs
Dudley's lawyers tried their best to get
her to forego her determination of be-
coming witness. She persisted in her
intention, however, and ct word from
the prosecuting counsel, she walked
quietly to- the witness chair and was
sworn. Then she said
