Gladstone's Home Rule Bill.

This is the subject of supreme interest in
Great Britain at this time. This bill Mr..
Gladstone presented in the House of Com
mons last week supported by a speech of
great ability and eloquence. The Bait.
Sun gives the following synopsis of its
character
"The bill starts out with the proposition
to exclude Irish representatives from both
houses Of the British Parliament, and to
send them back to Ireland to sit in Parlia-
ment of their own. That Parliament is to
be composed of an upper and lower
house. The upper house is to be composed
of twenty-eight Irish peers, with seventy
five elective members making one hundred
and three in all. The lower house is to con-
tain two hundred and six members. This
Irish Parliament is to have the right of gen.
eral taxation and exclusive control in all
matters of domestic concern. It is to ap-
point its own magistracy, its own civil
service officials, and ultimately its own
constabulary. To this extent it would be
an independent government, supported by
it's own revenue, and legislating without let
or hindrance for its own people, In impe-
rial matters, and in all things touching the
rights of the crown, the British govern
ment would still continue to be supreme
1t reserves to itself entire control over Gus
toms and e4sfse duties, but any excssSof
lrevenue oar Ireland's part Of impaHal
charges obtained from these sources is to
be turned over to the Irish Parliament for
Irish uses. 1t reserves, further, the right
to appoint a non partisan Irish viceroy, the
right to exercise supreme control over the
defense of all parts of the United Kingdom,
of the army and navy, and of the entire Or
ganization of the armed force. Finally, it
reserves to itself exclusive control of the
coinage, of the emission of legal-tenders,
Of the post Office, and of all matters relating
| to trade and navigation. Such is Mr.. Glad
stones great scheme for Irish home rule
with its imperial limitations. The fate of
bill is still uncertain. By some it has been
said already that it goes too far, by others
not far enough. In any event, it is destin-
ed to encounter strong combined though
heterogeneous opposition, and will undoubt.
eddy have to pass the ordeal of much
searching criticism. The land-purchase
bill, which is the complement of the home
rule bill, is yet to follow"

AN EDITOR LOSES His HEART.--The
editor of the Red Wing (Minn.) Advance
went to Florida on the editorial excursion
a few weeks ago, and thus discourses on a
beauty he saw in the land Of Covers: cat
Rockledge we met a typical Southern
beauty, perfect in form and physical de-
velopment, with nut brown cheeks, through
which shone the rose tints Of morning, and
large, deep, lustrous dark eyes, perfect
face, and Q brow that would have done
honor to Juno, yet as sweet, tender and
loving to little three year-old niece, model
ed on the same style of beauty, whom she
fondled, and who showered her with endear-
ing kisses and confiding embraces, as
Venus could ever have been to her tenderest
pet. She was from Virginia, that old
mother of Presidents, and happy the coun-
try whose Presidents may have such perfect
models of womanhood for mothers"

tive of soil, producing resources, and the

The query naturally arises, why write in
this strain when nothing new is conveyed

it is not done to entertain him particularly,
but to aid, as far as we can, the purpose Of
inviting strangers of the Northwest, con-
templating change of location and invest

learn that all, and hundred-fold more

be laid before them. 1t is hastily written
on the line desired, and if it aids in accom-

is worthy of receiving in promoting her ma
terial interests, the SPECTATOR will be am

educator fell down on the sawdust floor

that death in the family OF one of the
members Of the board occasioned a post
ponement of the regular meeting.

cured a warrant for the arrest of
Mason Phillips, her husband, whom
she charges with most cruelty beating
and maltreating her, and if there is
anything in appearances, Annie GER
tainly bore evidence sufficient about
her person to admit of a belief of her
word if she had said she had been run
through a threshing machine. Her
father stated that Phillips course,
toward his daughter had grown, SIM
ply unbearable and that, being of a
lawful disposition, he desired to ap-
peal to the law and see if its power
would not induce him TO amend, but
if it would not he intended to take
Phillips in hand himself.

corn tassels, and on examination we
find them full of worms. Several
horses have died near Gilpin's as well
as in other parts of the county. All
the horses which have died had been

worms in the tassels of the corn-fod-

An Otterville Sensation.

No little excitement has been created
in the neighborhood of Otterville
during the past week, by stories of
frightened denizens, in regard to the
doings of wild beast which is haunt
ing the forests of that locality. The
animal is described as being a large,
powerful brute with a short chain
about It's neck and a mUzzle on its
mouth. Several persons claim to have
seen it and to have been chased by it.
The latest story is that told by a
couple of wood choppers who were
standing near a fire they had built to
warm themselves, about dark Thurs
day evening, just before start
ing home, when a dog which they
had with them begun to bark vicious
ly not far away. One Of the men
went into the timber to see what he
had, when he came upon the animal
trying to fight off the dog. On see
ing the man the animal started toward
him, and the man ran back to the
fire. The dog Immediately attacked
the beast and a furious struggle
ensued. After it ceased, the men
took their axes and went to the scene
of combat, but found only the remains
of the dog, which had been literally
torn to pieces. 1t is said that some
time last summer a party of gypsies
were in the neighborhoCd with
six cinnamon bears and that
one of the animals escaped,
and some express the opinion that it is
the bear roaming about nearly starved
from being muzzled, what gives color
to their theory is the fact that it is
claimed that the animal whatever it is
is so weak that it cannot follow any
thing but a short distance. The Ba-
zoos informant stated hunting par
ty was being made up to follow the
trail of the animal and kill or capture
