GLADsroNE's PREDICAMENT.

Mr.. Gladstone, sorely hampered as he
is by the apparent impossibility OF get
ting his forces to combine on any plan
with regard TO legislation for Ireland,
will be at a disadvantage. and il will be
impossible for him to antagOnize the
indefatigable Tory leader with any hope
of success. Unless he can bring about
an agreement upon some concerted plan
of action by his followers it is believed
he will adopt no policy, and watch for
a favorable opportunity to strike his
opponents and drive them to the wall.
In Conservative circles it IS freely HUT
ed that the present Government will
assume a defensive attitude, and use
every means at their command to in
duce Mr.. Gladstone to reveal himself
before they venture to move.

sALIsBURY's SCHEMES.

On the other hand, Lord Salisbury has
his political forces well organized, and,
it is asserted, is planning and scheming
to forestall any contemplated aggres-
sion by his opponents. He is acting
with the utmost caution, and will, it is
stated on good authority, be able to
meet any attack upon his policy with
much bolder and more compact front
than many anticipate. He is said
TO be quietly throwing up Notifications,
and hopes through the presentation of a
program containing measures of such a
liberal nature to discomfit his Oppo-
neuts and demoralize them in the very
tEreshhOld. He hopes by this plan to
bring the moderate Wings over to his
support and thereby augment his forces

ALL AT SEA.
The Much Discussed Question OF HVne
Rule.

LONDON, Jan. 10.-Politicians OF all
shades seem to be thoroughly at sea
concerning the probable program the
great parties will decide upon with re-
gard to the much discussed question OF
home rule. The leaders of all parties
have suddenly become very reticent, and
the closest questioning fails to draw
from them an utterance upon which the
remotest idea as to the stand they will
take on the Irish question can be based.
Mr.. Gladstone appears to be in state
of great perplexity, aud is apparently
more or less nonplussed by the conflict
ing elements within his own party. he
seems to realize chat it would be the
sheerest folly TO attempt tOgive battle to
give battle to the Tories with his own
forces so much at~vaFianee and 50 much
disorganized as they are at present.
How to overcome all chickering's and get
his forces united on some definite plan
OF action causes him much anxiety, and
the mental strain under which he Il
laUoring has caused great apprehension
among his friends, who fear that h'
may be prostraJed at the most vital mo
ment.

A joyful treble that had grown
AS dear to me as that grave tone
That tells the world my older care.

Surprised by sleep, caught in the act,

His little town, and thought it play;
The shattered vase; the broken jar;

The inkstand's purple pool Of gore;
The chessmen scattered near and far.
strewn leaves OF albums lightly pressed
This wicked Baby Of the woods;''
In fact, OF half the household goods
This son and heir was seized-po
Yet all in vain, for sleep had caught
The hand that reached, the feet that strayed'
And fallen In that ambuscade
The victor was himself o'erwrought.
What though torn leaves and tattered book
Stlll testified deep disgracei

My guilt. In trust that when my sleep
Should come, there might be one who'd keep

he fattens beef and pork, and OF course
he can undersel you in the market.
This competition so lowers the price Of
beef you sell to the butcher that on
the amount you receive for it you lose
more than the profits of all the corn
you can sell to the distiller And this
loss to you is no gain to the consumer.
The butcher asks his customer just as
much for the distillery-fed beef as he
does for yours; so whatever money is
made in the transaction besides that
made by the distiller goes into this
middle-man's pocket, not into yours.
We rise no higher now than the level
of your pocket book. There is sani-
tary and moral phase to the distillery-
beef question that we advise you to
study up in the loathsome stalls where
distillery-fed cattle are kept. Aside
from 81 that, have not made out q
case strong enough to convince YOU
that the market for your corn will not
be destroyed by shutting up the dis
tillery?
The distillers have fooled you lorg
enough by their cry: mo market for
corn without distiller1es y They iooI
you in regard to the proportion of corn
used in their nefarious business. The
number of bushels so used, given in the
aggregate, seems enormous, and, with
cut comparing it with the whole
amount raised in the State, you are sure
to think the proportion much greater
than it really is. But comparing it
with the entire crop, the amount used
by distilleries is but as drop in the
bucket BY careful computation in IL
linois it proves to be one peck for each
man in the State. Are you willing to
let the distilleries run and take the risk
of ruin to your neighoors' or your
own boy, which their running entails,
rather than to endanger your chance
to find market for a peck of corn? #
so you would better use that peck in
making starch to stiffen your back
bone.
In Iowa, before it adopted prohibit
ton, George Woodford's calculation
showed that the land used to raise corn
for distilleries would not furnish room
to bury the victims of the distillery's
twin brother, the saloon. Do away
with saloons and distilleries, and you
will not need so much ground for
graveyards. - Union Signal

Some of the Advantages Which 1t Secures
to the Wide-Awake Farmer.
All naturally wet lands are improved
by undertaking. Itnotonly takes off
the surplus water. leaving the land dry
and friable, but prevents that excessive
drying and baking in time of drought.
The soil being more porous, it holds
more moisture by capillary attraction,
and the evaporation is not so rapid
andacomplete. Besides, there is freer
circulation of air through the soil, and
air always contains moisture, which
eondenses in the cool soil, and is left
there to refresh the thirsty roots of
growing crops. Phe soil is not only
more open to receive the air by means
of the pressure of fifteen pounds to the
square inch on the surface, but it
enters all through the drains, in the
cool recesses of which it Is condensed
and furnishes moisture to be drawn up
ward by capillary attraction, aug
mented by the surface heat. BY pre-
venting water from standing and stag
mating on the surface. it also prevents
the identification that takes place
under such conditions. While certain
amount of moisture, such as is secured
by mulching, is required for the process
OF nitrification, the presence of air is
also required, but air is excluded
where the surface is covered with
water; and in this case the opposite
process goes on-the water absorbs the
nitrogen in the soil and it passes off
with the corporations in the form of
ammonia. In this way the soil becomes
denitrified. Itcosts something to under
drain-and SO does every thing that
.pays, But it is within the reach Of
every farmer to do little underdrain-
ing each year. 1t will not only add
value to the farm, but pay as money

The maker of an accommodation bill
or note-that is, one for which he has
received no consideration, having lent
his name or credit for the accommoda-

all other parties as if there were a good
consideration.
No evidence may be introduced to
contradict or vary written contract,
but such evidence may be received in
order to explain the contract when it
is in need of explanation.
If one holding a cheek as payee or
otherwise transfers it to another he has
a right to insist that the check be pre-
sented that day or, at farthest, the day
following
Checks or drafts should be presented
during business hours, but in this coun-
try-except in cases of banks-the time
extends through the day and evening.
An oral agreement must be proven
by evidence. A written agreement
proves itself The law prefers written
to oral evidence, because of it's precis-

"Value received is usually, and
should be, written in note, but is not
essential. If not written it is presumed

proof.
If a note is lost or stolen it does not

If the letter containing the protest

An agreement without consideration
is void; note made on Sunday is void;
contracts made on Sunday can not be
forced.
If the drawer of check or draft has
changed his residence the holder must
use all reasonable diligence to find
him.
A note made by minor is void; a
contract made with minor is void; a
contract made with a lunatic is void.
The time of payment of note must
not depend upon a contingency, The
promise must be absolute.
An indorsee has a right of action
against all whose names were on the
