English Politics.

LONDON, July Lord John Man
ners, Postmaster General In addressing Con-
servative meeting At Leicester last evening,
said, without pretending TO state the policy OF
the Government, that he WAS able to say that
they would try To bring order out Of the pres-
ent chaos In Egypt, and would cndeavor TO
terminate the tension on the Afghan frontier
which endapsers India He said also that
they favored increasing the efficiency Of the
local administration. Lord Arthur William
Hill, member of the Parliament for County
Down, Ireland, and Comptroller, in an cleo
tion speech at Down to-day, is the first mem.
Der Of the present Government who has yet
given any intimstion reg ,rding the policy OF
the Government In relation to 1rith Affairs.
His lordship referred to the recently proposed
bill for renewal Of the Grimes Act. and said
such measures were, In his opinion, needless,
- the ordinary laws were sufficiently ample
for the government Of Ireland. Continuing,
Lord Arthur said the present land act is fall
ure, and that he would support the land pur-
chase bill which the Liberal Government had
proposed.

The Indian Territory.

WASHINGTON, d. c., June ~
senstor ingalls,, who has returned from the In
dian Territory, whittier he went with the sub-
Committee to investigate matters, by order Of
the Senate, speaks with enthusiasm Of the
condition Of the civilized tribes. The Senator
thinks that the advantages Of the Indian Ter
ritory have been overrated. It is beautiful
country to look upon, with large forests Of
oak and other hard woods, which, being free
from underground, have the aspect Of well
kept parks, but much OF the country is mount
ainous and rugged, and the belief prevails
among the Indians that II they were to take to
the pillow universally there would not be arabic
land enough In the reservation to give them
100 acres each. OF 10000 Indians inhabiting
that country, there Is not q pauper. No per-
SOL is supported at the public expense, and no
one lacks . home. Only one insane person
was heard Of.
There is, said he, no occupation Of the Ok
lahoma country at all, and as far as the cattle
men are concerned, there has not even been
an attempted occupation. The Senator was
very glad to say that in his recent interviews
with the President and Secretary Of the In
terror he discovered . vigorous determination
to prevent any invasion Of the rights Of the
Indians, Of any infraction Of the guarantee Of
the treaty under which the land was cedcd in
1893. The committee made thorough investi-
cation Of several matters into which they were
told to inquire, travelling to all Of the princi-
pal places In the territories Of the civilized
tribes, and examining all the principal men.
With regard TO leasing the Cherokee strip the
sentiment WAS generally favorable, though
many were Of the opinion that rates were paid
which were fair originally, but they were now
too low.

SALIDA, Colorado, June 2S.-As
passenger train No. 7, due in salida at hall
past this afternoon, reached point about
half way between Parkdale and Texas Creek,
the middle coach left the track, derailing an
other frst-class car and the sleeper, the three
carriages beng thrown on the side opposite
the river. After caring for the injured the re-
mainder CT the train cameto this city with the
passengers. All on board were slightly
scratched, but no one was seriously hnrt. Mr..
Schroeder, who came on board at Colorado
sorings, and is tourist from Germany, had
q wrist pierced by splinter and an ugly flesh
wound in the leg. He gained "a good reputa-
ton for pluck and will be on his way again in
day or two. Miss Daisy Wendell, who is on
her way from Chicago to Eureka, Nevada, was
cut in several places, but she is not seriously
hurt The patients are at the Monte Cristo
Hotel in charge Of Doctors O'Conner and Un-
derhill, and the road is to be congratulated, as
the statement that passengers are not killed
on the Denver & Rio Grande still holds good.
Engineer Dressing states that he was run
ming at the usual speed, and that he was but
three minutes late. The cars commenced to
reel on heavy curve, but they finally left the
track on straight piece Of road. The day
coaches are not BADLY broken, but the sleeper
struck rock and Is . wreck. The conductor
Of the Pullman is limping about the hotel, and
he claims that his injuries are the result Of .
kick from . woman who was attempting to ef-
feet an exit from the side Of the car by = Wig
orous use of French heels. There were several
other persons who were slightly injured.
Among them were Senator Elkins and family,

Mormon Immigrants,

NEW York, July THE steamship
Wisconsin, which arrived from Liverpool this
morning. had among her passengers Al swcd-
ish and Danish converts to Mormonism. These
people were in the care Of Elder J. Hansen,
President Of the Emigration Company. All
ages were represented, gray haired grand
fathers and grandmothers to little grandchil-
drcn, and fifteen missionaries were with the
flock. This IA the largest company Of Mormon
emigrants that has arrived In the United
States since last summer, and II is stated that
It will soon bc followed by another equally as
large. Nearly all Of these people will settle in
the rural districts in Utah; some will stop In
Salt Lake, and very few will go to Mexico.
There has been something OF revival I'm the
Mormon missionary work in Europe, and II
may be expected that the tide Of emigration to
this country will he increased during the next

Bill Nye on Bunker Hill.

Doston olCpe,
At the time of the third attack by the
British the Americans were out of am
munitions but they met the enemy with
clubbed muskets and it was found that
one end OF the rebel fint-look was
about as fatal as the other, If not more
80. Boston still meets the invader
with its club. The Mayor says to the
citizens Of Boston: "Wait till you can
see the whites of the VISITORS eyes and
then go for him with your clubs. {"
Then the visitor surrenders. I hope
that many years may pass before it
will again be necessary for US to soak
this fair land in British blood. Tho
boundaries Of our land are now more
extended and it would take more blood
to soak it. Boston has just reason to
be proud of Bunker Hill, and it was
certainly great stroke Of enterprise
to have the battle located there. Bun
Ker Hill, is dear to every American
heart, and there are none Of us who
would not have cheerfully gone into
the battle then il we had known about
it in time.

WORDS 7BoUT THE WEATHER.

When the barometer stands at 80 in.
or above, it indicates fair or improving
weather. The sinking of the mercury
fortells q change for the worse. The
rate at which il sinks will indicate the
nearness ola storm. When the mercury
sinks quickly 1t shows that storm Is
close at hand and will be soon over.
When il sinks slowly, 1t shows that the
storm will be of some duration The ex.
tent of the fall of the mercury shows the
violence of the storm.
Mean thermometer shows the average
temperature for the day. Maximum
and minimum thermometer indicate the
highest and lowest temperature of the
day. A falling barometer is generally
accompanied by rise in temperature.
The difference between the maximum
and minimum temperature, or the range
of the thermometer taken In connection
with the mean relative humidity shows
the effect of q climate on invalids,

of the several officers.
The trustees elected for the ensuing

T.. 4. Chapman. James Shoemaker was
elected president and actuary, J. G..
Wise, treasurer; &. A. Chapman, secre-
tary; X. ID. Hubbard, SUPERINTENDENT
II was ordered that the gate of the
cemetery be kept open from 3 TO o'clock

An amendment was made TO the by
laws, providing that the society will keep
the IOt Of any lot owner in perpetual re-
pair upon deposit Of 800 with the socie-
~ by such owner.
IL was decided TO erect a building for
tool house and waiting room at the Gene
terry, and plans for the same were adop-

Statistics show that up to July IA, 1884,
there had been expended upon the
grounds 81, 423, and at the same date this

pended the last year 81 III.

The balance on hand July u, 1884 was

leaving i'm the treasury a balance Of$5.98.
The report Of the superintendent shows
TINT nine single graves have been sold
during the wear and forty-one dug.
There has been monumental work to
