The Consolidated Land oaaco.

who prepared complete maps showing
the exact location of every acre of gov

Mr.. Finn feels that his reception by
the Commissioner, Mr.. Sparks. augurs
well for the decision, and in several in

confidence therein. Newspaper re-

We give the following extract from
the speech of Congressman Hender-
son of Iowa, in defense of the Pension
Bill-which we think is peculiarly
good reading at the present time, es-
pecially when we consider that the
democratic party has been claiming to
be the true friend to the old soldier
when every democrat in the House vo-
ted against allowing the widows of sol
diers 81, 90 per month instead Of So, 90.
He had just analysed the vote, and
was replied To by Congressman Till
man misrepresentation from South
Carolina. and rejoined as follows:
"There is no section of this country
that before God is under deeper end
more profound obligation to pay every
dollar of the share of that debt than
the southern states. have not read
this vote for the purposs Of stirring up
bad blood. The ti2le has come when
sectional lines should be dropped. and
when sixty-four members of that side
Of the House said SIP was too much
to pay widow, the sectional line was
kept up and the bloody shirt was wav-
ed. To-day the Constitution was
thrown in our faces as a shield to Gov
or an almost solid vote against the in
crease of pension bill. and yet there i'

that IL these gentlemen respected the

The state Republican,, (Lanslng.) be-
Iieves that any party whose platform

down the wages of Michigan working
men, and spoil the home market Of

London Truth prints an extract
from the primer of Edward VI, con-
sisting of special form of prayer
for landlords. it is SO applicable to
the grievances Of which Ireland has
justly complained that it seems like
an encouragement to the home rulers
We heartily pray Thee to send Thy
Holy Spirit into the hearts Of them
that possess the grounds, pastures
and dwelling places of the earth,
that they, remembering themselves
to be Thy tenants, may not rack and
stretch out the rents of their houses
and lands, nor yet take unreasonable
tiues and incomes after the manner
of covetous worldlings, but so let
them out to others that the inhabi.
tants thereof may both be able to
pay the rents and also honestly to
live, to nourish their families and to
relieve the poor.
