the government decided to ship them off to

enter them, but the bucks and squaws kindly
placed themselves on exhibition at the windows,

Mr. BAYARD says he doesn't know any
thing about the action of the American colo
ny in the City of Mexico, in adopting resolu-
tons rejecting upon the personal character of
Mr.. Sedgwick, save what he has read in the
newspapers, but adds that it is an easy enough
matter to call a meeting and adopt resolu-
tons on any subject, provided certain ends
were sought to be accomplished What ends
does the Secretary think were sought to be
accomplished in this case? Certainly he can
hardly wish to insinuate that the American
colony in Mexico is composed of men so un-
principled and with so little patriotism as to
mal;ciously and wilfully cast discredit upon a

country. That they felt called upon to pro-

CLINTON Mass, Sept IL. The interest in the
sea serpent in this vicinity has suddenly been ex
tinguished by the appearance in the immediate
neighborhood of an enormous land snake which
is playing havoc with live stock. The most ex-
travagant stories have been told within the past
few days of the serpent's size. The length given
varies from twenty-five to forty-five feet, and its
circumference from that of a two gallon jug up to
the size of barrel. It is believed to be the
same reptile that escaped from travelling men
aeerie some four years ago and was never heard
of afterward. The lost serpent was magnif-
cent boa some twenty five feet long The SER
pent that is now causing excitement, has been
seen by several people, and nightly sheep and
calves disappear. it is believed, through the in
strumentality of the monster.

apportionment bill Of 1872 may have been un-
equal in some of its provisions, but it was not
so partisan or partial as to prevent the Dem
ocrats from carrying the Legislature at the
very next election, IN 1874, and electing Mr..
Mcdonald to the United States Senate, while
the present gerrymander was intended by its
authors to be a perpetual Acknowledgement

THE Sentinel says Governor Baker refused
to sign the apportionment bill of 1872. It is
to be regretted that Governor Gray did not
veto the Democratic gerrymander of 1884, If
the bill of 1872 was bad. or unjust, because
of partisan calculations, that of 1884 was in
fnitely worse for the same reason. If the
Sentinel commends that action of Governor
Baker in Withholding his signature in 1872, it
should certainly condemn Governor Gray for
signing the DISTINGUISHING bill Of 1884. The
