bismarck in Politics.

Bismarck does not seem content
to sit idle under the definition
which the Emperor William APP
lied to him-':A country gentle
man who had rendered large
services to his country, but
who had outlived his useful
ness" The Iron Chancellor is
announced as about to re-enter
politics, and to seek seat in the
Relchstag. If this purpose is per-
severed in the young Emperor may
look out for squalls. Bismarck in
retirement is not very formidable,
but Bismarck in the Reichstag may
be. Whatever reform, whatever
issue. whatever side of contro-
versy Bismarck takes will be very
apt to carry. He cannot be either
silenced or squelched so long as he
is an elector of the people. William
had better placate the old states
man before the breach between
them becomes too wide for bridg-
lng.-EX.

gorgement of the brain and apo

coffee would be no higher in our

as much for it as we did when We
had a duty of several cents a

money? The foreign producers

explained TO the House the injustice that was

settlers who had taken up land since October 2,
1855. were now denied the right to perfect title
to the lands they had occupied; that the men
who vot for withdrawal of the land did not
know the magnitude of the subject or appreciate
what they were doing. He claimed that irriga-
tion and the control of reservoirs and reservoir
sites would be adjusted as the mining laws were
adjusted. The constitutions of the various states
in which there were arid lands protected the
sites.
Regarding the reports that spectators would
get control Of the arid lands he said that any
